“We had such a great experience with Dawn K! Taking care of three labradoodles is no small task, but she handled everything so smoothly and professionally. Our dogs were clearly happy, well-exercised, and well cared for when we got back. What really stood out was how clean everything was—the yard was spotless, and the house was just as tidy as we left it (if not better!). It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pets and home were in such good hands. We would absolutely book again (I already have done so) and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive sitter!”
“Katelyn was very good with our senior dogs, she walked them and sent pictures of them daily. She kept our house very tidy while she stayed here, very trustworthy! We will use her again”
“Ashley is absolutely fantastic and took the best care of our dogs while we were gone for a week. We were overly anxious to have a new house sitter since moving to Savannah, but she put our minds at ease from the first meeting. One of our pups is a little difficult to warm up to people but he absolutely loved her and was giving her tons of kisses by the end of the week. She sent us worried pet parents updates every day with a message and photos that warmed our hearts. For dog/house sitting, we won’t trust anyone else!”
“Jasmin was great! She is very responsible and took great care of my dogs. She also sent us pictures and kept us updated every day. I would definitely recommend her and I plan to use her again!”
“Look no further because Cara is the best! She is caring, mature and calm and has a keen sense with animals. She took care of our 3 dogs and home for 5 days and we came back to our home exactly as we had left it. I am so glad we found her and already have her booked a few more times. It’s a relief knowing our home and dogs are being well taken care of while we’re away. Really can’t say enough good things about her except give her a try —- ya won’t regret it.”
About: Hi everyone! Finally updated my profile. I have been caring for pets for over 6 years! Dogs and cats all breeds and ages. While I don’t have many services on this platform, I have done 200 services! Although I work full time, I always have time to care for pets in the area. Whether that’s boarding, sitting, or a drop in visit. There’s always someone in my home so your pet will never be alone! :) I have a great sized fenced back yard, a Yorkie who’s about 7lbs. My dog is no bother she’s very relaxed and stays to herself unless wanting cuddles and pets.
“Rebecca once again did an amazing job with my German Shepherd. It eases my travel anxiety when I know I can leave my dog in such great hands! Rebecca is highly reliable and someone you can always depend on for great care!”
“Emily did a great job caring for our girls Colbie and Hazel. She sent us lots of messages and videos over the few days, and seemed to genuinely enjoy the dogs. No issues at all -- a great find!”
“Anna was amazing! At the first meeting it was clear she was a ‘dog person’ and Dean fell for her. She gave him lots of attention and much cuddling as he is a bit of a needy pup. She was very responsive during the week she watched him. She sent regular updates and some great photos which left me feeling sure he was well cared for. I recommend her highly.”
About: I’ve raised my mini Australian Shepherd since he was eight weeks old—training, socializing, and caring for him through every stage, from puppy zoomies to adult adventures, with lots of exercise, structure, and love. Dogs are a huge part of my life, so being able to care for them while I pursue my masters degree is like a dream come true! After being discharged from the U.S Army, I decided to get a puppy for the companionship and unconditional love they provide. The sheer impact he has on my life opened up my eyes to how important dogs are for your mental health and well-being. My dog is a huge part of my life and I ensure he is safe and healthy each and everyday. As a dog owner, I make sure my fur son goes to the vet every 6 months for a routine check up and I make him homemade dog food and treats so I know what he is eating on a daily basis.
“Marci is literally the best! Our dogs are elderly and she took such thoughtful care of them and gave us the best photos and updates! She also took amazing care of our home! We highly recommend her and will book her again!!!”
About: Since the age of six, dogs have been a major presence in my life. From 50 lb pitties to 3 lb yorkies, I have had the privilege of caring for a myriad of canine companions, including seniors and those with special needs. My passion lies in ensuring that your fur babies receive nothing short of exceptional care, along with ample opportunities for fun and exercise. Over the course of the past sixteen years, I have gained a wealth of experience in managing complex medication schedules, tending to severe illnesses, and attending to various disabilities. Regardless of the circumstances, you can rest assured that your cherished doggos will receive the utmost care and attention. I am currently a stay at home dog mom and can be available just about anytime to check in, love on, and walk your dogs. I'm happy to walk your dog(s) around the neighborhood or nearby park, play some fetch or whatever games they love best. Very comfortable with handling up to four large dogs at a time on walks.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for years and have owned six of my own—ranging from tiny Shih Tzus to high-energy Belgian Malinois. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs up to 17 years old, including those with mobility issues. I understand that every dog has unique needs, and I’m confident in my ability to provide the care, patience, and attention they deserve. I’m a bartender at night, which means I get to spend my days doing what I love most—hanging out with my puppies! I’m all about giving them attention, playtime, and care around the clock. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or at a client’s, I treat every animal like my own. I stick to their routines, make sure they feel safe and comfortable, and give them plenty of attention, playtime, and love. I’m big on communication, so I’ll always keep you updated with pics and how your pet is doing. Clean, cozy, and stress-free is the goal every time!
“Devin is amazing. It was my 1st time leaving my dogs, and she assured me their care and they sure were. I was worried but she made me feel better by her frequent responses and pictures and video of my dogs. She indeed made my travelling better by the way she took care of my babies.”
“Had a great experience! Alexis was very patient with our nervous dogs and gave all of them a lot of attention! We received a lot of feedback and pictures. Will definitely be using them again!”

Josh did great with our animals and home. We are really appreciative of his time and willingness to help when our freezer broke and when our flight was delayed. Our dog and cat got plenty of attention and the house was well kept and left clean! Thanks Josh!
Ashley is absolutely fantastic and took the best care of our dogs while we were gone for a week. We were overly anxious to have a new house sitter since moving to Savannah, but she put our minds at ease from the first meeting.

Maria did a great job of taking care of my dogs while I was away. They seemed happy and well taken care of when I got home. My house was left clean and she communicated any questions she had while caring for my dogs. The pictures she sent me, both babies looked very happy to be around her. I would recommend and would rebook with her :)
I have loved all the Rover sitters we have worked with, but Hailee knocked it out of the park! During our meet and greet, Hailee asked engaging questions and demonstrated her experience with dogs. My house was orderly when we came home and the dogs were not stressed at all. Highly recommend Hailee!

FAQs for House Sitting - Georgetown
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Georgetown on Rover is $42.18 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 590 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Georgetown. 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 Georgetown 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 Georgetown 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 Georgetown 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 Georgetown. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
