About: I have lived with cats my whole life and have great attention to detail for them. I am also experienced with dogs of different ages and sizes. The most important thing to me is that your pet is happy and healthy. I am open to any opportunites, I have also taken care of chickens and rabbits. I also can take care of plants and maintain the house if you are away. I am currently not working so I am able to devote a lot of my attention to your beloved pets. I am very flexible and always try to communicate if there is an issue or I don't know something. I am always free on weekdays but I may have limited availability on the weekends. I always take care of the space I am in and try to leave it cleaner than I found it. And of course the pets are the main focus and the center of attention! I am very good at following written instructions and if I have any questions I will always ask.

Julia did a great job. My two pups can be a lot in regards to high energy but Julia handled them great. They got plenty of exercise and were well taken care of.

I could not have asked for a better experience than the one we had with Remington! My 16 year old beagle was in the absolute BEST hands and he took EXCELLENT care of my old boy while I was out of town for 5 days. I would 1 billion percent use Remington’s services, again and again! Absolutely wonderful care and communication! Thank you, Remington!

Mirabella was truly AMAZING! She watched my two cats for two weeks and I couldn’t have asked for a better caretaker. From day one, she was incredibly kind, reliable, and attentive, and she went above and beyond in every way. She provided consistent updates, photos, and detailed messages that made me feel completely at ease while I was away. It was clear she genuinely cared about my cats and treated them like her own — making sure they were comfortable, happy, and well taken care of the entire time. I came home to two very content cats and everything in perfect condition. I would 100% recommend Mirabella to anyone looking for a trustworthy, thoughtful, and responsible sitter. I will absolutely be booking with her again!

Madison was great. I'm particular about my baby so only the best will do. Madison kept Buddys potty pads changed, fed and kept water in his bowl. Madison let Buddy run off some of his puppy power and played with him. I feel like Buddy had a good time with Madison and of course that's important. Madison kept me informed of every visit and sent me pictures. I could relax knowing that while I was away, Buddy was being well looked after.

About: I grew up with dogs most of my life, including schnauzers and maltese/poodle mixes. I love to play with them, practice some tricks and show them love and lots of pets! I'm an avid outdoor walker and I would love to take your pup for a stroll around the neighborhood. I want to make sure your pet feels comfortable with me, so I'll make sure to match their energy when greeting them. I've been told by some that I'm a dog whisperer! I'm very detail-oriented, which comes in handy when caring for your pup, feeding them, and walking them on the schedule you provide for me. I communicate timely and will make sure to provide plenty of updates and pictures while you are away :) I am a post-bacc student starting classes in the fall and I'm flexible during the summer to take care of your pups. I live at home in Druid Hills and I am very familiar with many ATL neighborhoods to explore new walking routes with your pup. Overall, I'm pretty flexible to fit your needs! I make sure to follow all instructions owners give and ensure the pet feels comfortable in the space they are in. I make time for physical activity as well as rest and relaxation.

About: I recently retired early and would love to combine my need to be productive with your pet’s care needs. My 14-year old daughter is a natural and enthusiastic entrepreneur and has suggested we do this together! She is saving for a computer. She loves playing and snuggling with our two cats and the dog, Loki, sleeps with her most nights. I have lived with pets my entire life and starting at a young age provided regular care for friends and neighbors. I connect particularly well with shy or reticent animals and have a firm love for overly enthusiastic ones. I have experience and comfort with exercising, bathing, providing medications, and snuggling dogs and cats. Being at home all day, I have plenty of time to spend in your home or on walks. I can host the right dog at my home if they are good with other dogs and cats. My flexible schedule means your pet is my top priority and will ensure prompt and on-time scheduling. Also can be available for any last minute emergencies. I can follow directions to a tee and will send pictures and a write-ups that let you know I’ve spent quality time with your pets. If hosting a dog at my home, we have an acre lot with secure fencing and a super friendly lab mix who would love to be chased. Cats will ignore him/her though. We also have a pool if you’d like your pet to swim, but I will not leave them outside unaccompanied.

I was dealing with a medical crisis when I made my first booking with Rover and their sitter, Jax. Jax jumped right in and coached me through the process so I could get to the hospital. My 2 dogs & 2 indoor feral cats are rescues, seniors and have behavioral and/or medical special needs. The second I walked in the house they were stress-free, so I knew they felt as comfortable and safe as I did with Jax..One of my dogs went outside ears up, tongue out, smiling expecting to find Jax. They went way above and beyond giving me a chance to concentrate on my health.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Decatur

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Decatur on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 7,298 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Decatur. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Decatur 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.

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 Decatur 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!

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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Decatur with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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 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.
