“As always Courtney is amazing. Our sweet boy Auggie is pretty skittish, but Courtney is patient and still makes an effort to try and get him to come out of his shell for some snuggles. She keeps us well informed and takes the cutest photos of our baby. 10/10 would recommend for anyone looking for a pet sitter!!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 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. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“You won’t regret booking with Sadie. She’s a responsible mature young woman which obviously she loves taking care of animals. Today we had just a drop visit which is a prelude to when she will take care of our two kitties in a week for a week. Both my cats came up to her immediately and that doesn’t happen often. I feel confident my kitties are in good hands.”
About: Hello! I’ve been dog walking and dog sitting for a few years and have many references. It’s of the upmost importance to make sure your fur babies will be taken care of when your away and that is my top priority. I’m a stay at home mom so I am able to do most mornings and most evenings weekly. Mondays and Wednesdays I have to bring my daughter to school but can come immediately after. Friday we have dance at 5 but after dance I can come straight to your home. Depending on whether you need walks for your pups or just feedings I can handle whatever your needs are. I have two cats and three dogs myself and it’s of upmost importance they get their food and outdoor time in each day which is what I will provide your fur babies with.
“Guadalupe is fantastic! Our very large pup loved her coming over and checking in on him while we're traveling. And our two very shy/skittish cats actually come out to say hello to her when she drops is. Highly recommend”
“Tara is a gentle and awesome cat and dog sitter. She took care of our 4 cats and senior dog while we were out of town . She walked our dog regularly and played with our cats and sent many photos and updates . I felt totally confident in Tara. I especially appreciated the regular photos and her comments on how each fur brat was doing. We have an escape artist cat who tries to run outside and she was very careful to make sure he did not run outside and sent me photos of him every night to ensure me of his safety. I will definitely book Tara again! She’s the best!”
“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”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Dawsonville
Courtney was absolutely amazing with our two boys while we were away on vacation! She kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were happy and well cared for. It was clear that she genuinely cared about them and treated them like they were her own. Even though our kitties didn’t need care because they have automatic litter boxes and feeders, Courtney still took the time to give them love and snuggles too. That thoughtful gesture meant so much to us and really showed how much she cares about all animals. We came home to two happy, relaxed pups, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Courtney was reliable, communicative, and went above and beyond to make sure everyone was comfortable while we were gone. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and dependable to care for their pets. Thank you, Courtney!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Dawsonville stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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.

- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
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.
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.
