“Sydney was amazing. We found her on here and had her housesit and care for our two big dogs for 5 days, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly comfortable handling dogs. Our dogs were happy, well cared for, and relaxed when we got home, which says everything. The house was left in great shape, and we felt completely at ease knowing everything was in good hands. We would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter.”
About: I have 10 years of hands-on experience caring for animals and have worked with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. Families, friends, and neighbors consistently trust me to provide dependable and attentive care, including feeding, walking, playtime, and maintaining structured daily routines. In addition to dogs and cats, I am also comfortable caring for reptiles and other small animals. I understand the importance of proper habitat maintenance, feeding schedules, and careful handling to ensure their health and safety. I have experience with puppies, high-energy dogs, senior pets, and animals that may need extra patience or reassurance. I prioritize consistency, safety, and clear communication, and I always provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident while you’re away. Every pet in my care is treated with respect, attentiveness, and genuine love. I have open availability and a flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate a wide range of pet care needs, including boarding, drop-ins, and extended stays. I am available weekdays, weekends, and holidays, and I can adjust to your pet’s established routine to ensure consistency and comfort. My priority is providing dependable care and being accessible when my clients need support. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced yard as well as a secure outdoor fenced playpen area to allow for safe exercise and supervised outdoor time. Inside the home, pets are monitored closely and kept in a clean, structured environment. I am able to crate if requested and will always follow your specific instructions regarding routines, feeding, and supervision. I focus on creating a calm, secure, and stress-free environment so your pet feels comfortable and cared for at all times.
About: My name is Bryson H. I've been taking care of dogs for 4 years but I've lived with dogs all my life. And I'm really excited to meet your pets I'm currently in college and I work a part-time job but I only go to classes two times a week and I only work about 8 hours shifts I will keep your pet in the comfort of their own home and make sure they have enough time to play and go to the bathroom and they have plenty to eat and drink
About: My name is Truman but I go by Max! I’ve cared for all kinds of animals for years — from dogs and cats to bearded dragons and small pets. I adjust my approach based on the animal’s personality; not every pet wants constant attention, and I’m good at reading what they need. I don’t board dogs or cats at my home, but I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting. Clear communication and reliability are my top priorities. I work at Publix, so my schedule can vary week to week. I’m flexible and happy to coordinate drop-ins, walks, or overnights around your routine—with clear communication and quick confirmations. I take a calm, thoughtful approach with every pet. When meeting a new animal, I get down to their level and let them come to me — it helps them feel safe and in control. I respect each owner’s preferences for communication and routines, and I’m comfortable caring for pets in their own environment. You’ll always get reliable updates without being overwhelmed.

I love to play with animals, and I’ll treat them like my own. I am a medical student just trying to get an extra serotonin boost from looking after pets when presented to me. I prefer overnight watching on weekends but can check in on pets anytime throughout the week. Or board them at my place if necessary. I live in a townhouse that has an upstairs and downstairs. There is a pet park on my property that I can walk l dogs to for them to play or fetch, and I have 3 cat trees for your kitties to share with my little boy Leo. I have a cat fountain for cats to drink from that is cleaned weekly, and many animal bowls to go downstairs for pups and dogs. I am more than happy to feed your pets whatever schedule and amount you request as well as give many pets and lovins.

About: Hi 👋 I offer overnight care in the pet's home environment to be sure they are well cared for while you're away. I'm available to care for them, love on them, and go above and beyond your expectations! I will come do an introductory visit with the pets while you are there so I can meet them and we can go over their routines, what they like to do during the day, discuss any medications, discuss any household chores, and we can be sure the pets will feel comfortable with me as their caregiver while you are away. I've been blessed to care for dogs, cats, horses, ponies, chickens, ducks, turtles, and even catfish. I’ve been blessed to pet sit for years and I will happily provide references at your request! I am available to pet/home sit for any duration. One day/night up to weeks at a time. My rates are fair and affordable. Along with caring for your fur family, I can also handle everyday household tasks such as watering plants, taking the trash to the road, checking the mail, and etc. Household chores are no extra charge. Please, no snakes or lizards. Let's chat! Other than pet sitting, I do ministry with a Christian camp. When we discuss the dates and what you need, I can tell you about my ministry schedule for the dates that you need me. Rest assured, I will be sure to take excellent care of your fur family! During the introductory visit, I make it a point to learn the general household schedule so I know what is normal around your home and what is not normal. I take safety of your fur family and your property seriously. If your fur family needs to go outside, I am right there with them. If your fur family stays outside, apart from me spending time playing with them, I check on them routinely to be sure they are safe and content.

FAQs for House Sitting - Fort Valley
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Fort Valley on Rover is $35.52 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of July 2026, there are 151 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fort Valley. 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 Fort Valley 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 Fort Valley 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 Fort Valley 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
