“My dogs were extremely happy and relaxed when I came back home after being in Bri’s care. She took incredible care of them and my apartment was immaculate. She is professional, trustworthy, and interested in learning about your pets to best caew for them and accommodate their routines as much as possible. Highly, highly recommend booking with her.”
“Gabriyela is phenomenal with our fig and in our home. She cares for Chloe as if her own dog. She sends photos and messages to reassure us that all is going well. I appreciate that she cares for our home well, too. I trust her completely!”
“Dale must have done something so right and loving with our Maltese that shortly after he left, and my husband and I were unpacking from our trip, we could hear our dog howling and looking upstairs as if wanting DALE! That's great service!”
“Emily was fantastic with our dog, Poppy. In the past, we have always used a family member to watch her but needed someone last minute to pet sit. Emily was very responsive to our initial booking request and was able to meet us and our dog before we booked. She kept us updated with texts and photos and made sure Poppy was comfortable while we were gone. We would highly recommend Emily!”
“The few times we had left Jamie was always with a close friend (through their dog) so we were a bit nervous in leaving him with anybody. We did a meet and greet with Summer and in just a few minutes of interaction she dispelled any concerns we might have. She always wanted to know what we want and expect and never told us this was "her way". Communications and images were much more than we could have ever expected. Jamie was in good and loving hands. We and Jamie now look forward to our next trip.”
“We had a great experience with Angely house sitting and watching our St. Bernard and two cats for 4 nights. She was prompt, followed all instructions and schedules, and left our home tidy. We received plenty of pictures and updates of the pets while we were away. Will definitely use Angely's services again.”
“This was the first time using this app, wow it was wonderful and easy. Sherri did such a great job caring for my furry family members while making me feel comfortable. Loved the pictures and video's she sent. Will definitely ask for Sherri again.”
“Aaliyah took great care of our two dogs and home while we were away. She stayed communication with us the entire time and was very easy to work with. We will definitely use her again.”
“If i could give 10 stars I would! Brianna exceeded my expectations. I am a first time dog mom of a 6 month old yorkie and leaving him for the first time was nerve wrecking. However, after speaking & meeting Brianna I felt ease. She made sure to check in frequently, helped me create a schedule for my puppy, and even answered other puppy related questions for me. The highlight of it all was she taught my puppy how to fetch while i was away. I was able to enjoy my vacation because I knew my puppy was in great hands!!”
“Camilla was the sweetest. Took the best care of my Murphy. I had an early time I needed to be out of the house and she did not hesitate to accept. She was on time and was just so kind. Highly recommend!!”
“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!”
“Erin was wonderful, she watched our dog for a week and took such great care of her and our home. She was quick to communicate updates and check in photos during her stay. Highly recommend and will definitely use her again.”
“Ashley stayed with our dog Rose for a week and it was so nice to come back to a house that was well kept over and a happy dog. We’re very thankful for Ashley and will use her again!”
About: I’ve taken care for friends and family’s pets for years! I am most familiar with dogs and cats, but I do have some experience with fish and guinea pigs! I am available weekends and weekdays starting August 21st! I just moved to the area so I am looking for ways to earn money and feel like I am making a positive difference in the world! I usually do check ins in the mornings, evenings, and in the middle of the day for potty breaks and meals. I often will spend extra time walking/playing with your pet or spending time with them so they feel less lonely while you're gone!
The median cost per night for house sitting in Dunwoody is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Dunwoody
We had never left our senior dog with anyone except family, so I was very nervous using Rover. Trent did a great job with Ginger, getting her outside to potty and getting her to take her meds and eat her food. We will definitely use Trent again if we need someone to watch our sweet old lady!
My husband & I have booked Girishma (G) multiple times and at this point she is our preferred sitter/walker, as in there is no one else we're looking to book! That should explain how wonderful she is at what she does but in case it doesn't please keep reading. Our two pups are not quite ‘pups’ any more and are actually over the age of 10. They move a bit slower nowadays and have some issues we keep a close watch on. Having them wth G is just about the same as them being with us. This is the type of care and attention she applies to dogs that are in her trusted care - she ensure every direction was followed exactly as we outlined and even sought to go above and beyond for their comfort, and ours. We’ve often dropped our dogs off at boarding facilities previously and received many pictures of them active and happy. This is great, but G’s updates showed us the realistic range of our dog’s temperament, especially at their age. There were playful photos but also many where they were relaxed and comfortable. We never had to guess if they were getting enough rest, being overexerted, or if they’d had a chance to hang out at the park or play for the day. She quickly learned our dogs personalities and adapted her care to them. In emergencies, G makes her best effort to accommodate in impossible situations. No-one ever travels across open water wishing to get stuck in the country they’re in—it’s never happened to us previously, but did happen while they were in G’s care. She made every best effort to continue to care for our dogs and give us a realistic solution until we could figure out alternative arrangements and return home. Having never been in that predicament, we continue to be incredibly grateful for G’s pragmatism and genuine heart for what she does…which brings me to who she is. Even in the few months that we’ve gotten to know her, we can attest to her genuine love and enjoyment for dogs. For her, it’s more than just another booking, she takes care of your dogs (whether it’s a walk or longer booking) as if they are her own. I don’t know any dog owner who drops their dog off and doesn’t hope they’ll receive the same love and attention that they would from you if you could be there. [For the humans that’ll interact with G lol] Overall, G is kind, considerate, and also incredibly friendly which makes checkin/checkout and overall communication with her a breeze. If you’re looking for someone that doesn’t just have “availability” but is also the type of person who you can trust to care for your dog in your absence, Girishma is your person.
My pup Albie could not have been in better hands. Cynthia was very communicative while I was away, and the house was spotless and everything well taken care of when I got home. For example, she let me know when my dog randomly freaked out about a noise outside and made sure to comfort him and figure out what was going on. She is such a sweet, interesting person— a true animal lover— and I would definitely book her again.
Kailee did a fantastic job with in home dog sitting for my 3 dogs. I have a difficult young Belgian Shepherd that is scared of people. Kailee worked with her and had no problems dealing with her. She also had to handle the 4th of July fireworks and big storms with all the dogs and handled it like a pro. The house was clean and she watered the plants.
Naomi was amazing! She cared for our 2 boys, Lucca and Luther, like they were her own! She had incredible patience with Luther, our 1 year old boxer who is high energy, and showed both our dogs lots of love and attention. We were gone for a full week, and returned to our house and our puppies in perfect condition! She sent daily pictures, and videos and updated us on everything our pups were doing. She was awesome and we will def be using her again!
Nurii was fantastic. I am a bit neurotic and my dog is quite spoiled and Nurii was so accommodating of every request! She sent me multiple daily updates with many photos and videos and was very sweet with my needy, high maintenance Yorkie. I will absolutely book Nurii again. Thank you!!
Carla was great with my two dogs when I was out of town! She was responsive and sent photos and updates while I was gone! She was able to give my dogs medication and keep them on their schedule. I would definitely use her again and recommend her to watch my friends/family’s pets!
Kristina was fantastic! We came home to our pup who was happy, healthy, and very well cared for when we got home. She kept us updated, took great care of our house, and left everything spotless. It gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. 5 Stars!
We had a wonderful experience with Ling. She took excellent care of our dog for a week and making him feel at home. The regular photos and updates gave us peace of mind, and our dog came home happy, healthy, and relaxed. We really appreciated her kindness, reliability, and attention to our dog's needs. We would happily book with her again and highly recommend.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Dunwoody on Rover is $53.5 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 4,899 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Dunwoody. 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 Dunwoody 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 Dunwoody 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 Dunwoody 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.
