“Rene did an outstanding job taking care of my cat Max! She was always on time, fed him and gave him his medication, and lots of attention. Everything was neat and tidy when we returned as well. We will definitely be booking with Rene again in the future!”

About: I've had cats and dogs my entire life and, for the first time, find myself without any pets. I have an abundance of ear scratches, belly rubs, and snuggles just waiting for pets who are missing their people. My husband and I both work from home with flexible schedules so are available for frequent potty breaks, walks, and playtime. We also have two children, 8 and 11, who both grew up with dogs and cats and are experienced and comfortable with both. Your pet will be the only one in our home, so they will get lots of attention, playtime, and snuggles! We have a big house that pets are free to explore and where they can make themselves at home. We also have an unfenced 3-acre backyard that connects to a path through the woods - your dog can enjoy a daily hike through the forest, smelling the many interesting smells and splashing in the creek if so desired. And we live on a cul-de-sac in a residential area perfect for safe neighborhood walks. If you are looking for someone who loves dogs and is responsible and loving to take care of your pups when you're not around, please reach out! Please note: 1. All dogs must be fully potty trained, neutered or spayed, vaccinated, and on flea and tick preventative. All pets must be comfortable with children. 2. Drop off time: 7:30 am to 6:00 pm Pick up time: 7:30 am to 9:00 pm 3. Things to bring: a. Bed or blanket or crate, whichever your pet prefers. b. Food and treats, along with feeding instructions. Please bring 2-3 extra days' worth of food in case of delays. Any unused food and treats will be returned. c. Any medications or supplements for your pet. Please bring prescription medications in their original containers along with clear written instructions. d. For a dog, a collar with name tag and phone number and a harness if used for walks. e. Any special toys.

“Susan was great! I felt safe with her taking care of my cat while I was away overseas. She was communicative the entire time, very responsive, left me daily notes on time, and my cat seemed to have had a great time with her. Would book again :)”

“Shannon was absolutely phenomenal. Our cats and house were well taken care of, arguably cleaner than when we left to be honest. 😅 They sent regular updates and our 2 baby cats were happy and healthy when we returned. I cannot recommend them enough!”

About: I've been pet-sitting throughout the DMV since I was 15. I have extensive experience in pet care. From taking care of 6+ dogs for 10 days, to watching a goat for 2 weeks, and caring for a 160lb English Mastiff, I can handle almost everything that comes my way. I am able to cater my skills and care towards all ages of life. I am experienced in administering medication, vet visits, and exercising hyperactive pets. I am open to bookings from 1 night to 4 weeks in the Montgomery County area. I am currently a student studying at Shady Grove, Maryland so I have plenty of time for pet care. I also enjoy being active and taking long walks/hikes and would appreciate a furry companion in my ventures. I have classes Monday-Thursdays and am available all 7 days to pet-sit, walk, and drop-in. In a client’s home, I ensure a pets routine remains unchanged as much as possible. If they regularly get walked and fed at 8 am, I will ensure they get that at 8 am. I enjoy spending time outside with pets by either walking them or doing homework while sitting near them in the backyard. Pets are also always welcome sleep on the bed or couch alongside me. Or if preferred by the owners, strictly the crate at night. While caring for pets, I ensure the home is kept up by vacuuming, wiping kitchen surfaces, picking up poop in the yard, and taking out trash.

About: I’ve had dogs as pets my whole life! I grew up volunteering at animal shelters so I have plenty of hands on experience. I’ve been freelance pet sitting for about 5 years now. I have cat sit for 5 different families in the past. I never had a cat so I feel this helped me gain some cat experience. I’ve dog sat for senior dogs requiring special medication and have had senior dogs myself. I’m a huge animal lover and am so excited to meet your pups/ kitties! I’m perfect to call for mid day dog walking or a drop in visit when you’re at work! I’m currently unemployed and am looking forward to pet sitting/ dog walking full time! I am a very structured person so I will follow any and all directions that you leave for me. I will do as much as I can to make your pet feel at ease while you are on your family vacation, work trip, etc. I’ve been an animal lover all my life so I promise to give your pets the same love & affection that I do give to my own fur babies! I know everyone says that, but I truly enjoy being around animals!

About: What truly sets my service apart is the depth of my experience and my advanced medical skill set, which aligns closely with the hands-on training of a veterinary technician. For over 35 years, I have dedicated myself to caring for dogs and cats. My pet sitting experience covers everything from the joy of playing and bonding with active pets to the gentle care needed for senior animals and those with special needs or medical conditions that require medication. Caring for animals is not just a job for me—it is my entire life, my primary focus, and how I structure my days. Because pet care is my full-time devotion, my daily and weekly routines are built entirely around the schedules, medical timelines, and comfort of the cats in my care. Cats thrive best in their own familiar environments. To eliminate the severe stress of boarding or travel, I work exclusively inside your home. My safety protocols are designed to keep your home clean, secure, and running smoothly according to your exact instructions, while fully respecting your private property and making sure your kitty has a wonderful, fun time while you are away.

“Relle stayed overnight with our older girl and new kitten and was excellent at juggling time between them as they are currently separated. She was able to give our older cat medicine with ease and knew how to deal with both kitten energy and older cat energy at the same time. She made us feel super stress free and kept us well informed on how things were going at the house. We would highly recommend her for anyone looking for a cat sitter / overnight sitter.”

About: I've been around dogs my entire life. From growing up around my dog to seeing dogs at all my family friends' houses, dogs have always been a constant for me. I have two dogs right now, a senior german shephard and a black lab mix. I'm great with dogs that need special help and attention, and I'll do the best I possibly can to make your dog as happy as possible! Current high school graduate without much going on, I'm free to stay with your dog for as long as you need during any time of the day. I'm very involved with dogs. I will write out a specific schedule and change it as needed if anything happens. I'm very good with communication and can do check-ins whenever desired. I'm very good with senior, disabled, and special needs dogs, as I have two of my own. Your dog is my highest priority and I love to help in any way I can!

Other than that my schedule is open. I am more than happy to help with your pets in your home. Let me know what you need and I will make sure it gets taken care of, and that your pet gets the care and attention they need and deserve!

“Lauren helped with our two for babies last week and this week plus the weekend. She came for the meet and greet, and the dogs were very comfortable with her right then. Lauren comes on time, follows the care directions, communicates promptly and goes an extra mile to keep our fur babies happy. I feel confident leaving our home and our two dogs under Lauren's supervision. I already booked Lauren for more visits for this week and next two weeks. If Lauren is available, we'll be booking her more in the future for sure. Have no doubts to consider Lauren for your fur babies.”

About: Hi I have been pet sitting for family and friends for about 5 years and have pet sat all different kinds of pets of all different ages, sizes, and personalities . I treat every pet like my own, with lots of patience, engaging playtime, and lots of love. I am currently working on getting my realtors license so I have plenty of free time to play with your fur babies. I am free weekdays and weekends. In your home please walk me through where your pets food is, litter, their favorite hiding spots, their toys , etc. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable regardless of the fact that their family isn’t home.

“Amouki a pris soin de mes chats : il est resté une nuit avec eux, a administré un médicament à l’un d’eux et m’a envoyé régulièrement photos et vidéos. On voit qu’il adore les animaux : même mon chat au caractère difficile s’est senti à l’aise avec lui. Ça m’a permis de ne pas être stressée pendant mon week end, je le recommande ! ”

About: Tons of experience walking dogs, plus years of experience caring for cats. While not formally trained I have an understanding for animal psychology and how best to interact in a respectful way. I also have experience administering medication for pets, including giving senior cats their insulin shots. I take walks almost every day, but would love to share than time (and get out even more) with a pup or two in tow! I treat your animals like my own, with unconditional love and attention. I respect their, and your, space and proceed as a guest in your space.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Dawsonville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 2,362 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Dawsonville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

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.

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 Meet & Greet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Dawsonville. On Rover:

  • 83% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 87% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 88% 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.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
