“Ana did an amazing job watching our dogs (and home) while we were away. We came home to a cleaner house than we left with! Thank you!! We will definitely use you again in the future!”
“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.”
“Liberty was amazing! She is super sweet and quick to communicate back and forth. She took care of our sweet girl like she was hers! She was also incredibly flexible with our change of travel plans. We would trust her over and over again!”
About: I have alot of experience caring for dogs and have always loved being around animals. Friends, neighbors, and family trust me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m patient, responsible, and attentive to each pet’s needs and personality. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or just relaxing and getting cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re gone. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting on most weekdays. I make sure pets get the exercise, playtime, and care they need while keeping their normal routines as consistent as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, and any special care.
“Kyle was great! He took such good care of our two dogs, taking them on multiple walks a day and giving them tons of affection while we were out of town for a few days. He took great care of our home, even washing and changing the guest room sheets before we returned. We definitely will use his services again. We highly recommend him.”
“Kayla was absolutely incredible with my two dogs! Very thoughtful and communicative. She made us feel comfortable and kept us updated on how everything was going. I’ve always had a hard time leaving them when I go out of town but Kayla was so awesome I didn’t worry and will absolutely be using her again in the future!”
About: I’ve lived with cats and dogs my whole life. Friends and family rely on me to take care of their pets when they are out of town. I’m currently working part-time from 4am-8am and I have plenty of free time to give your pet the love that they deserve when you are at work or on vacation.

“JaNiya is an angel! She came to save the day when I was all the way in California and a sitter bailed on me. She came in and loved on my puppy, helped put my house back in order and get him on track with his meds. She gave me very helpful updates to ease my worry and also gave some flvery helpful insights as a new dog mom. I will definitely be a repeat client.”

My fiancé works swing shift on nights & doing pet care would really help me to stay occupied.

Dedicated to keeping your house just how you left it & well taking care of. Attentive to all your pets need so they don’t start getting too curious!
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs, cats and farm animals for the past 6 years for other people, and have had many animals of my own. I currently only work a few hours a week, so I have plenty of time to care for your fur babies any time of day! I take them out for potty breaks, feed, and play with according to their schedule throughout the day. On a leash, since I do not have a fence at my home.

All around great Vibe from Ryan, Ryan checked in with me making sure my travels brought me back on time before he departed! 100% positive will continue using Ryan!”
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.
About: I have experience with pets who need senior care as my own corgi had glaucoma herself and I’ve had to provide loving and compassionate care. I am passionate about pets and consider them family and treat them like my own. I consider myself very responsible and would give the highest quality of care and would send progress notes and photos for the fur parents and keep open lines of communication for reassurance in event you’re away. I’m studying for my sterilization certification exam and have my days and evenings available for immediate bookings. I would be able to take your beloved fur baby out on a walk and make sure they’re fed and cared for. I’m available on most weekends and have them open to provide consistent and loving care. I would care for your beloved pets like my own as I’m a dog mom to a very energetic and sassy corgi who requires lots of attention and love. She too is well cared for and I would go above and beyond to make sure your pet gets consistent attention and care and know how loved they are. They deserve all the belly rubs and spoiling and would receive it freely with me since I am a dog mom who loves dogs. For overnight stays I would make sure they were fed and go to go outside to run around and use the bathroom and get some fresh air before going to bed!
About: I have plenty of experience with handling and caring for animals as I have 3 dogs, 8 cats, 4 turtles, 4 frogs, and 2 lizards. I grew up with animals and have volunteered at animal shelters and worked at an animal care hospital as a kennel tech. I'd love to open my care to other people's pets as it's something I'm pretty comfortable and trained in doing. I've had pets my entire life and have a pretty strong passion about animals and can care for any range of breeds or size without issue. I'm very flexible with scheduling and timing as I have a lot of free time and can do pretty much any timing required even most last minutes if needed. Im open to all the services for pet care on here and really do make it my priority for who's pet I'm caring for. I do have a baby that i need to take with me most places but i can babywear him or figure out something that works if comforable! I recently left my full time job job to have more time for my hobbies and side jobs that i much prefer. I can be home all day if need be, and when boarding I do keep my pets separate in the lower portion of the house unless I'm supervising so all pets feel secure and comfortable. I have a fenced yard and a deck that leads out from the living room. I ask that requests be for non destructive dogs as i did board two unbehaved dogs last year that tore into furniture, so please no requests if the pet has a history of being destructive! I let your pet warm up to my home first and make sure to follow the specific care needed per each pet according to the owner's directions.

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! 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!

FAQs for House Sitting - Dalton
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Dalton on Rover is $37.45 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 471 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.
