“As always, we love Ana! We were away from our pups for 8 nights and knew Roxie and Robyn were being well taken care of. Ana sent messages and pics daily and kept us up to date. We always appreciate her care and love for our most precious family. Thank you, Ana!!!”
“Alondra was wonderful! She made sure she fully understood my dogs and my needs before she accepted our booking request. She was always on time and was great at reaching out to me with pupdates along the way. We will gladly be a returning client and are happy to have Alondra as part of our dogs care team. She absolutely gave me peace of mind while traveling without my doggo by my side.”
About: Hello, my name is Isabel and I’ve cared for animals my entire life. I would always come home with a new family member. I’ve dog sat 5 dogs at once and it’s beautiful to be surround by furry babies. I would love and care for your little ones as if they were my own. I would hope you choose me to care for your furry baby while you are away or just go out on walks. I would like to know everything they love, hate, and anything that would make you feel more at ease while you are away. (For example, if you request to be sent a photo of them every hour. Consider it done.) If you have any questions about me or more details about my availability please don’t hesitate to ask. I can’t wait to meet you and your little one.
“Lauren was phenomenal!! She took great care of our fur babies and even left the house in better shape than she found it! She sent us regular updates, responded quickly to communication, and our babies seemed very well cared for upon our return. I can't say enough how grateful we were to have her and will absolutely be requesting her care again!”
“Rachel has done a phenomenal job at taking care of my dog. She was very communicative and went above and beyond. My dog is quite anxious especially around new people, I could tell how comfortable she made him. I highly recommend booking with her!”
“Chas was a wonderful house-sitter and pet watcher! We returned home to super relaxed, happy pets and a clean home...and communication throughout our trip was exactly what we were looking for in order to rest assured that all was well. What a treat to go away and know that your pets and home are in good hands! Thank you, Chas!”
About: Hello! I’ve been around pets my entire life. Anywhere from small breeds to large breeds. I owned a German Shepherd for 7+ and also cared for kittens right from the time they arrived. I currently manage a restaurant since returning to the workforce after being a SAHM for years. My schedule is very flexible, and my time still is dedicated to caring for others as well as taking care of my family, work family, and animals! I can ensure when visiting your home that everything will be as you left it, and your animal very well taken care of and loved on. Sometimes I do have my kids with me who have been around animals from a small age. I always confirm that is okay with you and your animals needs before I allow them to join me. I find it’s best to teach them young so they understand animals and how to care for them responsibly and respectfully.
“i will definitely recommend and use Ryan again, he took great care of my dogs, he took detail on what their schedules and needs, my dogs where well taken care of, Ryan was a great help while i was on vacation! 5 stars!”
“Toni did a Great job taking care of our dog, Winner. Lots of communication. The house was spotless when I came home. Toni is very friendly asked questions To best know what our dog needed. We hope To book her again for dog care.”
“Keelee was wonderful and I felt good knowing I had someone like her looking after our dogs. So much better than taking them to a kennel. I have an old dog and she (through no reason for being in a kennel) ended up in the ER due to a spinal tumor while we were on our last trip. So to be able to just have her be in the comfort of her own home this time was a relief. Keelee also kept in good touch with me and promptly answered any questions or concerns. Thanks for your care.”
About: Your dog’s comfort and joy come first. I bring years of experience and a genuine love for pups to make every visit fun, safe, and worry free! As a stay at home mom, I love spending my days caring for pets, going on walks, and visiting the horse barn. Pets easily fit into my daily routine, and I make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and playtime. I keep pets safe, happy, and comfortable, whether it’s in my home or yours. I follow routines, rules, provide food, water, supervision, and lots of play time. In your home I respect your space while giving updates to build trust.
About: I have 20 years of experience caring for dogs and other pets for family, friends, and neighbors. I understand how important it is to have someone dependable and attentive caring for your pet while you’re away. I’ll follow your pet’s usual feeding, walking, playtime, and potty routine while giving them plenty of attention and affection. I’m respectful of each pet’s personality and comfort level, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. I currently have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, and care. I’m available for scheduled visits throughout the week and will do my best to accommodate each pet’s established routine. My calendar will always be kept updated so pet owners can confidently book the dates they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priorities. I carefully follow all feeding, walking, medication, and household instructions provided by each owner. I keep pets supervised, secure doors and gates, and make sure they receive plenty of attention. I also provide regular photo and message updates so you can feel reassured while you’re away.
About: I absolutely love animals of ALL kinds. I have 30+ years of experience caring for them. I have several references of people (friends) that have relied on me to care for their animals while they were away. Please let me know if you would like to meet and schedule today. I am currently not working so I can drop in to care for your pets 1-2 times a day. I always stay and give them pets/love because they miss their parents. We live in Ringgold (NE side) on 2 acres with a 6 foot privacy fence in the back yard. We currently have two Labs: Copper Ray, Abigale DeLaney “Abbie” and two cats Cassie Marie (Bobtail), and Oliver Patrick “Ollie” (Part Maine Coon) They all love laying on the couch together while inside. When they are outside they enjoy running, playing and hunting.
“ALLIE IS AMAZING!! Our frenchie’s and indoor cat LOVE her and we are so thankful to have her part of our lives. We never have to worry about them when we have to be away because we know they are being well loved and cared for. She also is very reliable and gives detailed feedback and daily reports. Last, Allie is an amazing pet photographer and very knowledgeable about canine and feline health. You can’t go wrong with Allie, we highly recommend her!”
“Andrew was great. My maltipoo, Leonard, took to him right away. Andrew is very kind, responsible and was very good with Leonard. Andrew took him for a walk every day of his sit. He also kept me posted with a daily picture. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with him.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Dalton
Kyle was an exceptional dog sitter to our 4 pups. He gave us updates on them from the first day we left, and then numerous times a day each day we were gone. He went above and beyond our expectations. He cleaned, did laundry , took out trash and even vacuumed floors. Couldn't ask for anything more. We would highly recommend Kyle to anyone needing his service!
Alondra was wonderful! She made sure she fully understood my dogs and my needs before she accepted our booking request. She was always on time and was great at reaching out to me with pupdates along the way. We will gladly be a returning client and are happy to have Alondra as part of our dogs care team. She absolutely gave me peace of mind while traveling without my doggo by my side.
Lauren was phenomenal!! She took great care of our fur babies and even left the house in better shape than she found it!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Dalton on Rover is $33.23 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 448 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Dalton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Dalton walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Dalton maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Dalton choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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.
