“Nicole is AWESOME! She was on time and even went the extra mile by bringing our packages inside when she came to care for our pups. She took lots of pictures and updated us immediately after each visit. We will definitely be booking with her again, I can’t recommend her enough!!”
About: I have been obsessed with animals for my entire life. I have always wanted to learn as much as possible when it comes to pets. I studied different breeds, watched documentaries, read multiple training books, and filled my life with animals. Every job I have held has revolved around animals. I have been a kennel technician, barn manager, veterinary assistant, etc. I am comfortable with all temperaments, ages, and sizes. I have experience with reactive pets, special needs, and giving medication. I will strive to give your pet the quality care that they deserve! I owned a fear-aggressive German Shepherd Dog, so I understand how difficult it can be to find someone to watch a dog that may be “more difficult.” I would love to help relieve that stress for owners that have pets that may need a little extra care. My seasonal job just ended, so I currently have plenty of time to take care of your pet! I am open to house-sitting during the week, as well as weekends. All pets are different, so pet care changes within each home. Some pets need to be crated when not supervised, some are not allowed on the furniture, the list goes on and on. I believe that the owner knows their pet best, and I will strictly follow each rule and piece of advice given to me. I strive to give all pets plenty of physical and mental stimulation to best fulfill their needs and happiness.
About: Hello Pet Owners, I work from home most days and have plenty of time for drop ins, walks and overnight stays. I will do my best to make time away from your pets as stress free as possible. I have experience administering medications if needed. I’ve grown up with both cats and dogs. I am available weekdays and weekends. Being away from your pet is stressful and I’m here to make it easier knowing your pet is in good hands. I will keep your pets as close as possible based on their needs. Communication is key and will provide updates and photos at least twice a day
“Aaron was great with my dogs and communicated with me, while I was away. I will definitely be using him ,again, in the future! If you’re feeling any kind of way about someone coming into your home when you’re gone you should know I felt my home was safe and my dogs were in good hands. I’m very happy to have found him.”
About: I have grown up with dogs so I’m used to all kinds of dogs. From puppies to seniors. I also used to volunteer at animal shelters. I’m currently working part time and do most of college online. So I have plenty of time for your pets! I also have a very flexible schedule. I’m committed to providing quality care in the environment your pet is used too. My goal is make your pet feel well taken care of.
“Emma! What a blessing it was for us to have you check in on Scooby while we were away. This was our first time using the service and it was so easy to navigate and communicate with Emma. We returned home to a happy dog who was well cared for in our absence. We look forward to rebooking with Emma.”
About: As a dedicated pet sitter and proud owner of two wonderful dogs, I understand the importance of trust and care when it comes to your furry friends. With years of personal experience in pet care, I offer a loving and reliable service, ensuring your pets are happy, healthy, and well-cared for in your absence. Whether it’s dog walking, feeding, or just keeping them company, I treat every pet as if they were my own. Let me provide the care your pets deserve! During the summers I have a part time job which causes me to be busy between the hours of 3pm and 8pm, other than that i am usually free or can free up my schedule with AT LEAST 3 days notice. Before my first official meeting with your pet, I do require a prior meet and greet to get to know your fur baby and to make sure they aren't startled or alarmed by a stranger coming into their home, this also helps me begin to better understand their needs and routines. Instructions on your pets care are strongly encouraged due to some pets having additional needs or medical problems. I also ask that you leave your pets veterinarian information in case of any incident. Communication is key!! I love to keep clients updated with pictures and videos of their pets to highlight how they're doing.

I also enjoy working for Wag!, which I have worked for almost 10 years on and off with a perfect five star rating in many many great reviews. my daily routine includes taking care of a my older dogs, and my cat. I include them in all my plans to make sure they are always taken care of. I always consider them as an extension of the family and their needs are always my priority. I tried to tackle things head on and make sure that their needs are met before my own.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. Throughout high school I dog sat and house sat while friends and family were away. I just moved here from Texas and am starting school in the spring at KSU. Throughout college in Texas I dog walked, did doggy drop ins, and house sat. I can’t wait to meet your furry friends! I’m currently in school full time and am a dance instructor. I have class Tuesday and Thursday but am able to take care of your pets throughout the week! I have a fenced yard with two big dogs of my own and foster a small chihuahua currently. I have worked with dogs that are high energy and dogs that are not friendly towards other dogs.
About: I am a dog owner and have always had dogs in my home. I love how loyal they are and enjoy their company. I would love to host your dog and give them somewhere fun and loving to stay where you don’t have to worry about them. I’m currently working hybrid so Friday-Monday I’ll be able to keep an eye on your pup and play all day. I am also available in the evening Tuesday-Thursday. I have a fenced yard so your babies can enjoy lots of outside time without the restriction of a leash. I also have a dog of my own who will be a great companion. We go on two walks a day and would love to have a friend to go along with us.
About: I have been taken care of pets for 6 years now on my own. I have an abundance of experience in doing overnight stays, where I am given a list/pet procedures to follow about when and how to feed, walk/take out, etc. cats and dogs of various sizes. I also have experience walking small to medium sized dogs. Additionally, I have lived with cats and dogs of various sizes my entire life, where I was often responsible for taking care of them. I am currently available for pet care on the weekends any time between 9am and 7pm as well as on Fridays from 6pm to 7pm. I have years of experience taking care of pets of clients in their home. I always follow the instructions given to me and make sure there is adequate communication at all times.
“Couldn’t ask for more! Gave the important details for updates and gave the pics I wanted. Even went the extra step to clean up after my dog when she didn’t have to. Looking forward to using Ashlynn on my future vacations!”
About: My love for animals started at a very young age. I feel like it all started when I was feeding the stray cats in my hometown. Over the years I have developed my love and knowledge of all animals I can. I volunteer at an animal shelter I can in the north metro ATL area. At these shelters when working with cats my main focus is always on getting them as socialized as possible, but also help with any vet care needs such as giving oral meds or Sub-Q fluids. When working with the dogs I focus on socializing them but also basic obedience training and leash manners. I have 5 dogs, 2 cats and 13 chickens that I have either rescued or had since they were babies. I have a very open schedule. I pet sit as a full time job when I’m not taking care of my mom or my own animals. When in a clients home I always be sure to keep an open line of communication. As well as a detailed log of the day’s activities, if we went on walks, and anything that seems to be note worthy
About: I’m glad you’re taking the time to read a bit about me! I’ve loved animals since I can remember, bugs, bunnies, birds, snakes, cats, dogs it really didn’t matter to me! I grew up with 4 big dogs, my cousin raised and bread snakes, my aunt owned two rabbits so it’s safe to say they’ve always been around me. I have experience In walking feeding check-ins and overnight stays, I worked for a company for 2 years where I did this often. I’m currently in college acquiring my teaching degree in English education, I love being out doors and traveling with friends! I don’t Want you to have to read a book so what I want you to know as you’re considering me is I know animals can be just like family and you want them cared for as so. I personally would want to put my fur kid (beans my cat) in the best hands possible so I’d love the opportunity to take the best care possible of your fur family too ❤️ I work part time as a server currently, I’m free most evenings and my schedule is quite flexible so if something comes up and you might need me longer I can usually switch it around and be as accommodating as possible. I cannot personally house other peoples pets but I can promise I’ll care for your pet in your home the exact way you want me to and then some !

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Emerson is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $29 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 3,884 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Emerson. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Emerson. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 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.
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.
