About: Your animals are an extension of your family, and they should be treated as such! I am a recent empty nester looking for some fur friends to love on. I have always been a dog mom but lost our last Springer Spaniel, Brody, to old age two years ago. Looking to help another family out with their fur friend on special occasions and overnights. I do not overbook clients. Each family will get individualized attention- no rushing out. If you are on holiday, we can discuss your animals current feeding/bathroom schedule so we can keep them comfortable while you are away. Daily in-home pet care visits are broken down into two (2) 30 minute visits. Each visit includes potty break, fresh food/water (if needed) and playtime. Overnights will be an additional service and you can be add an additional 30 minute visit for an extra $10 on daily checks. At each visit, I will take 2-3 photos of your fur babies and send you an update if you'd like! Every visit will be logged in detail (ie. walked pet, got mail, play visit, feeding and bathroom updates) and left for your records upon completion of services. We can discuss additional request if needed.
“Allison was great with our two dogs. She asked good questions during our initial meeting and first drop-in that showed us she understands dogs needs, genuinely cares about animals welfare, and wants to do a good job. Excellent sitter.”
About: I’ve had family pets my entire life and have always had a love for fur babies & treating every single pet like they are my own! I work fully remote (with the exception of an occasional office pop-in), and I have a flexible schedule on the weekends as well. Will require advanced notice for weekend visits. I always make sure there’s plenty of food, water, snacks, pets & walks - the animals comfort, happiness and safety is my number one priority at all times!
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ashley was amazing with my dogs, Arya and Salvatore, while I was away for the week! She was always on time, spent quality time playing with them in the yard, and made sure they got plenty of attention. I really appreciated the daily updates and pictures, it gave me total peace of mind knowing they were happy and cared for. I highly recommend Ashley to anyone looking for a dependable and caring sitter. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
About: Hi, I’m Tay! I’m passionate for providing the best care for your beloved fur babies. I have a reputation for excellent communication skills, reliability, and a sense of responsibility. I’m here to make sure your pets get the love and attention they deserve. A couple years ago I would volunteer every day at TLC animal shelter. This has helped me understand behaviors from animals and has enhanced my caregiving experience. When you entrust your pets to me you can rest assured that they’ll be treated as my own child. I believe in open communication, so you’ll receive regular updates and pictures of your babies while you’re away. Whether it’s ensuring they got their medications, cuddle time, exercise and even potty breaks. I’m committed to keeping up with their day to day routines and keeping them happy! Im currently working a part time job which gives me plenty of time to spend with animals. I live on a small “farm” with a bunch of chickens, dogs, and goats at the moment. Pet care plays a daily roll in my life. Working with animals is a huge passion I have. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space to play. We also have friendly Puppies that come in and out on a daily to give your dog a friend. I offer grooming and bathing services to keep a clean happy pup. I make sure to give pets a lot of exercise on fun little walks and hikes etc.
“Kendra did a wonderful job looking after our Mila cat. She fed her, played with her and filled her treat puzzles. Kendra was great about staying with Mila for the full time, even if Mila was not particularly cuddly. She also sent great pictures throughout and her updates covered all the necessary information. We would definitely work with Kendra again”
“Mylissa was very sweet, patient, and deft with our dog, even when the dog showed signs of aggression. She was very open to working with us on a care plan that works best for everyone, and we are grateful to her.”
“Alletta is an amazing pet sitter and really enjoys the pets (in our case, dogs). Our dogs completely bonded with her and were obviously happy to see her. Alletta also noticed a leak in our hose nozzle and turned the water off, so it would not continue to leak.”
“Ryan is the best! He takes awesome care of our rowdy and sometimes overwhelming boy without even blinking. I've never seen Peep warm up to someone so quickly. Thanks for being great, Ryan!”
About: Dependable - Flexible - Excellent communication - I can quickly react to any emergency you may need my service for - I'm a mom of 2 dogs and 3 cats and understand the deep connection and passion we have for pets. The care of a pet is the caring for a family member. I'm flexible and easy to work with schedules and special needs. I will work closely with you to ensure your pet has the loving care required. I can care for your pet in your home. I am very dependable and trustworthy. I am known in the community and can give tons of references of my character and reputation.
“If you’re looking for someone who is truly compassionate and dependable, Nicole is an outstanding choice. She took wonderful care of my dog, Max, during a drop‑in visit when I had to be away unexpectedly. Her calm, attentive approach made a noticeable difference — Max was relaxed and happy when I returned. The thoughtful photo update she sent was an added touch that gave me real peace of mind. Nicole is someone you can confidently trust with your pet’s well‑being.”
“Has been absolutely great at slowly working with my undersocialized/shy rescue the past few weeks, always answers quickly, shows up on time, and is very available - definitely will be working with for future stays!”
About: Hey everyone! My name is Mark and I’m a total dog lover. I’ve had dogs my entire life and I started doing house sitting and dog walking when I was 16. I also worked at a feed and seed store, so I have some knowledge on animal nutrition. I work part time at a local sober living community and do some other work from home. Most of the time, I will be available. I will check in and send you at least 2 pictures of your fur baby everyday. When I’m at your place, I will follow every guideline and rule you give me. Your dog will remain the focal point of my attention.
About: My experience pet-sitting (before I joined Rover in 2019) began at age 14 and has consisted of taking care of neighbors and family friends' dogs, eventually getting gigs through personal referrals. Helping others look after their animals and taking care of them as my own while making a few extra dollars is the perfect gig for me! Dog-walking/sitting: I'm pretty active and love the outdoors, so I'm more than willing to take your fur baby on short or long excursions outside. Some of my favorite memories are taking my family's dogs on long walks and spending time with them at the lake. Cat-sitting: I love both cats AND dogs for very different reasons. Dogs are awesome because they're friendly, energetic, and man's best friend! Cats are so different in that they are sooo relaxing, hands-off compared to dogs, and relatively independent. Other animals: I have little experience in this arena but would love to take care of any other pets you may have! I'd love the opportunity to take care of your pets while you're away! :) I work full-time from home when not traveling for my job. Because I love animals and travel too much to have some of my own, pet sitting is the perfect, flexible gig for me! I treat my clients’ pets as my own, so I do let them on the bed or couch to snuggle if that’s something you allow in your home. My personal motto is “leave no trace” typically used for the outdoors, but that is also the standard I abide by when staying in a client’s home.
About: I have always had a strong love for animals. I own animals of my own, and they are like children to me. I love meeting new animals and getting to know them. I am a very active person and playful. I have so much love to give out to all animals! I have had a lot of experience taking care of furry friends. I am a student in college, but I'm looking for easy ways to earn money. I thought I would put myself put there for others to know that I am here to help with animals, so I could have a fun, easy, and flexible job to help me make a better living for myself to get through school. I also have been volunteering at Pickens Animal Shelter for awhile now, so I have met numerous different types of furry friends. I am very patient and have experience with frighened, nervous, and even agressive animals that just need more compassion. I also have experience with taking care of livestock, including llamas! Unfortunately, I'm not able to have fun with furry friends 24/7, but I am still flexible and usually don't have issues working out schedules that are needed. For overnight booking, I definitely prepare to be there majority of the time. I love my let's very much and they are a good mix between inside and outside dogs. I pretty much give them free will to pick. They always sleep with me at night. I have lots of land to play on. In a client's home, I will follow any instructions or rules they ask. Otherwise, I try and do what is best for the pets and make them comfortable and I have no problem cuddling and sleeping with them too!
About: I am currently a 28 year-old nurse. Besides loving dogs, I love the outdoors, and love to make extra money on the side. I would love to love on your dogs :-) I have a cute 1 year old who loves dogs and loves to tag along with me! I am a nurse so they days I work my fiancé helps out as long as you are ok with us tag teaming! We love staying at your house as well and enjoy the change in routine every now and then. I have about 3 regulars I have been watching for the past 3 years when they go on vacations, so I do have a lot of experiences staying at houses, or just going over a couple times a day. Let me know if you have any questions/concerns. I would also be happy to come to your house before I begin. While you’re away I can happily water some plants for you, take your trash out, and grab the mail. Thank you for taking the time to read this! Let me know if you have any questions! I am a nurse and work 3 days a week so this is how my fiancé make extra money on the side. My schedule is super flexible and I can be home a good bit of the day if needed and when I am working my fiancé picks up the responsibility’s where I can’t! I treat every pet as if they are my own. I know your mom and dad leaving can be scary so I take it very seriously to make the fur babies feel as safe and loved as possible while their humans are away.
About: About Me Hi! I’m Nina 🐾 I’ve been around dogs my entire life and caring for animals has always come naturally to me. Growing up, my family adopted and cared for several rescue dogs of all different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, including Chihuahuas, German Shepherds, Lab mixes, and Shih Tzus. That experience taught me how important patience, consistency, and individualized care are for every pet. Today, I’m a proud dog mom to my mini long-haired dachshund, Nemo, who completely stole my heart 💛 Caring for him has made me even more attentive to the little things that matter to pet parents — keeping routines consistent, providing lots of affection and supervision, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Outside of Rover, I work in professional services within the tech industry, so I’m very organized, dependable, and communicative. I also work a flexible hybrid schedule, which allows me to spend quality time with the pets in my care throughout the day instead of leaving them alone for long periods. My goal is always to create a calm, loving environment where your pet feels at home and where you feel confident knowing they’re being treated like family 🐶 ⸻ Experience • 10+ years of hands-on pet care experience • Experienced with rescue dogs and different temperaments • Cared for breeds including Chihuahuas, German Shepherds, Lab mixes, Shih Tzus, and Dachshunds • Comfortable with puppies, small dogs, and senior dogs • Experience maintaining feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty routines, and medication instructions • Frequent photo and video updates for pet parents 📸 • Calm, patient, and attentive approach to care • Flexible hybrid work schedule allows for consistent supervision and companionship You can trust that your pet will receive plenty of love, attention, and personalized care while they’re with me 🐾 I work a flexible hybrid schedule in professional services, which allows me to spend plenty of quality time with the pets in my care throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, daycare, and boarding, and I’m able to provide regular potty breaks, playtime, supervision, and updates. I’m especially attentive to keeping pets on their normal routines so they feel safe, comfortable, and at home while you’re away. Your dog will be as spoiled as mine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I live in a clean, pet-friendly townhome and have experience caring for small dogs and puppies, including my mini dachshund, Nemo 🐾 I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, walking routines, and any preferences you provide. I always prioritize secure walks, supervised playtime, and a calm environment where pets can feel relaxed and loved. I also provide frequent photo and video updates so you can feel confident your pet is in great hands.

Jordan was fabulous! She was able to administer oral calming medication to our cat during our absence which we have not been able to do and she sent great reports and pictures. She did everything we asked her to do. We plan to use her again if we need a pet sitter.

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Dahlonega is $18 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $6 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

- 95% can help with daily exercise

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
