“Gabriyela was prompt, professional, and very patient with our senior pups. We came back to a spotless house and happy dogs. We are so appreciative of the care and service she provided!”
“Jordan did a great job caring for my 3 dogs. She was very communicative, sent plenty of pictures, and treated them incredibly well. I recommend her and would book with her again.”
“Best sitter ever! Mandy sent me tons of adorable photos and videos of my little guy, was super communicative, a wonderful houseguest, and an all around pleasure! I can’t tell who had more fun - me on vacation or my cat hanging out with Mandy! 😂 10/10 would recommend.”
“Sherri was perfection! We had her in our home with the most important responsibility of looking after 2 older dogs with physical challenges. She sent us photos while we were out of town giving us peace of mind and the assurance that they were in excellent hands! We plan on having Sherri back in 2 weeks when we go to the Virgin Islands for Christmas week to spend time with our son and grands there. It’s great to know we have someone who understands dogs when we are so far away!”
“Cynthia was the best ever. Not a single complaint to give, only praise. She was honest, charming, great communication, a real gem. I hope to be able to book her again soon.”
“Lorie is wonderful. She took such good care of my boys that I had not one moment of concern during the week I was away. She texted me often during the day with updates, photos and videos. I would highly recommend Lorie.”
“Emily is highly dependable and has a great rapport with our puppy. She is patient, friendly, and clearly has a love for animals. I need someone to watch our pup who communicates effectively and in a timely manner and she definitely is that person. We will be requesting Emily to be our dog sitter every time we aren't around. ”
“Aaliyah did a great job watching both our dogs!!! She took lots of picture and they looked so happy the whole time! She left our house in great condition and highly recommend!”
About: Hi! I have fallen in love with volunteering at the CAC shelter the past months and want to spend more time with animals 🐾 I grew up with family dogs (yorkie, maltipoo, & husky) but I currently have a mischievous tuxedo cat! I currently work remotely so as long as there’s wifi I’m good to go for weekdays and weekends! I also can take pets out or play during my breaks. I will follow any instructions given about food, walks, cat quirks, or however you want me to care for your pet. Whatever makes you and them most comfortable!
“Amanda is very sweet and thoughtful. She communicates well and sends great updates with lots of pictures. She followed all instructions and went above and beyond with my cats. Even my skittish one gained her trust. Will be booking again!”
About: Pet sitting got us through college and now it’s helping pay our student loans. Kobi (the guy in all the pictures), will be the one doing the sitting and walking. He works from home, so he will be able to spend PLENTY of time with your fur babies while you’re away and will make sure they got all the love and attention they need. We love animals so this is our dream side hustle! We would love to meet you and your fur baby. Please contact us to set up a meet and greet so you can see for yourself that your pet will be happy and safe while you are away. And on top of that you will be serving a good cause by helping a future research scientist and an engineer pay for college! We look forward to meeting you! We work flexible hours so we can usually work around your needs. We got you covered! Contact us to set up a meet and greet. We are open to do things your way - just let us know how you want things done. We are happy to maintain consistency for your pet.
“Jackie is the best dog sitter ever! She is super sweet, very responsive, and overall did an amazing job taking care of my senior dog for a week! She followed all instructions perfectly, and we came back to an incredibly happy dog! This was my first time using Rover and leaving my dog for a week with a sitter, but my worries went away completely after meeting Jackie, as she is incredibly responsible and is SO nice!! She also sent daily updates with pictures and videos of my dog, which gave my family a great peace of mind. She clearly cares for animals, and I cannot recommend her enough!!!”
“Sivani was wonderful and our dogs absolutely loved her. She sent plenty of pictures and kept us updated. We have a super high energy pup that can be a lot and she took amazing care of him. The other 2 loved laying around with her and cuddling. She was wonderful at following up in case I forgot a care detail as well.”
“Gabriela was great. Very punctual and dependable and spent lots of time with our pets. We have a Doberman that is a big baby and hates being left alone. She spent lots of time with her and they really connected. We felt very comfortable with her taking care of our pets.”
About: I’ve had dogs in my home for as long as I can remember, and I’ve been pet sitting and dog walking for about eight years. I truly love animals and treat every pet I care for like part of my family. I have experience with all kinds of dogs and cats, from energetic puppies to calm seniors, and I always focus on keeping them happy, safe, and comfortable. Since I work primarily from home, I have a very flexible schedule and can give your pets lots of time, attention, and check-ins throughout the day. I make it easy to keep your pet’s routine consistent, whether that’s regular walks, playtime, or feeding schedules. Your pet’s comfort and safety are always my top priorities. I make sure pets feel relaxed and at home by keeping their routine familiar—same feeding times, walking schedule, and the level of affection they’re used to. Whether I’m in your home or caring for your pet during a walk or visit, I create a calm, safe environment and pay close attention to their needs, behavior, and comfort.
“Mia was very attentive to our girls and took care of the house while we were away. Very communicative with updates multiple times per day together with pics and good questions about the dogs or the house (the power went out for an hour and the dogs caught a critter in the back yard). Mia was up front about her schedule and kept us up to date about her needs. Overall - the dogs loved her and we will work with Mia again if schedules work.”
“AMAZING!!! This was my first Rover experience and I couldn't have been happier. Nancy stayed at our home with our Golden Daisy for a long weekend and was the best companion. Nancy sent pictures every day, went on walks and lots of snuggles. (Not to mention our house looked better than we left it). Can't recommend Nancy enough and she will definitely be watching Daisy again in the future!”

Cynthia kept me informed what was going on and sent pictures, however, more detail would have been more appreciated. She seemed conscientious about leaving the house the same as I left it, which was appreciated. She walked the dog regularly (more than she is used to with me), and I'm sure she gave her lots of loving. I appreciate Cynthia's flexibility and concern about doing a good job.
Due to my dog's medical needs, I make sure anyone we work with is highly qualified and experienced. Omeria was great - knowledgeable, very compassionate, and took great care of our pets and home. She couldn't have been more thorough in communicating throughout the trip, which was very reassuring.
Sarah loved on my 2 17yo littermates, and made sure they got meals and walks which was what we asked of a sitter! She gave special necessary attention to Jake who recently lost his sight. We are so very grateful! Jake and Maggie adore her! We will most definitely request her again!
Travese was an absolute superstar! She was very professional, communicative, and sent plenty of photos of my dog! It's very clear that she cares a lot about the pets she's watching and adaptable to their needs. I would absolutely recommend her for anyone looking for a pet sitter.
We had the pleasure of having Lorie take care of Philip while we were away, and she did an outstanding job. She took wonderful care of him, and we felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. We came back to a spotless home just as we left it, and most importantly, Philip was happy and well cared for. Highly recommend her!

FAQs for House Sitting - Doraville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Doraville on Rover is $66.6 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 4,890 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Doraville. 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 Doraville 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 Doraville 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 Doraville 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Doraville. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
