“Under unexpected and difficult circumstances during her stay, Yelena cared for my dogs in an extraordinarily special manner…an effort I won’t forget and remain thankful for”
“Karen takes exceptional care of our senior pack—they absolutely adore her. She’s incredibly attentive to their needs and keeps us regularly updated, which gives us such peace of mind. We always know they’re safe, comfortable, and in great hands with Karen.”
“Steffanie took such great care of our husky/shepherd mix, Jase, and home while we were away! She left our home spotless, administered all of his medication and supplements as requested, and took him on multiple daily walks. Would love to hire her again!”
“Tiffany was so great! She arrived as promised and even took our dog out one extra time for us since we were returning late. The dog was happy and well- cared for, left the house in great shape. Will definitely use Tiffany again and highly recommend!”
“Shelley was very communicative during her stay. After a rough start for not having the code to our door (completely my fault) things went very smoothly. Daisy and the house were well cared for.”
“Thanya took great care of Tuco and the house. She is very responsive and sent updates twice a day. With her knowledge and experience with animals I felt very comfortable leaving Tuco in her care.”
About: I’ve adored animals my entire life and have taken care of many different types of pets for the last 15 years ranging from my neighbors cats and dogs, to my friends reptiles, and my many pets over the years. Consisting of walking, playing, feeding, bathing, and occasionally overnight stays with their animals. I’ve owned many fish, hamsters, a bunny, duck, and 6 dogs over the course of my life. For the past 8 years I’ve been raising my two beautiful female Rottweilers who are giant teddy bears, full of energy and love. I’m currently working around my full-time job. If you’re looking for care outside of my availability, send me a message and I’ll do my best to accommodate you. Availability: Sunday after 7pm Monday after 5pm Tuesday before noon Wednesday ALL DAY Thursday after 5pm Friday after 3pm Saturday ALL DAY As of now, I offer both dog walking and day visits at your home, and will eventually be offering dog boarding services. I am physically fit to keep up with your dogs no matter their energy level and will give them plenty of exercise during walks throughout your neighborhood or a nearby park. I am well organized and a clean person who will treat your home like my own!
“Jonathan did an incredible job as always! Great communication with pictures each day, and the recaps he sends reassures you that your pets are in great hands. House was in impeccable shape when we returned and we will continue to use his pet services again!”
“I am so glad that I found Diahann to pet/house sit while we were traveling internationally. She was great with our 2 pugs. She was extremely responsible and communicative, sending us daily updates about our girls. Our home was also in perfect condition when we returned. Being a veterinarian myself, I can be picky about who takes care of our dogs, but Diahann definitely passed with flying colors. As long as she is available, she will be my go to pet sitter from now on.”
“Aaliyah was very friendly and communicative with the dogs. She was very attentive and available and kept sending updates each day. Aaliyah was also very clean and left no messes behind after housesitting for us. We would definitely hire Aaliyah again.”
“Nick is the absolute BEST. He was the sweetiest and very acommodating with our requests. He took excellent care of our 3 doggies and they will miss him a lot🥹💖”
“Taylor was amazing! We are new to pet-sitting and have pups that have only ever been watched by friends and family. She was very professional in all interactions from first text to first meeting with us and our dogs, to being able to do a second meet and greet right before our planned vacation to get some alone time with our grumpy older dog. She sent us photos, videos and daily updates. And everything went awesome! House was taken care of, she even watered our plants. I would 100% recommend her and she will be our go-to pet-sitter for future trips.”
“Elizabeth was great with my three very different personality dogs. They are little with big personalities! She managed them all so well, no accidents in the house, and gave them love as if they were her own. I’m happy to have found someone reliable and patient to be with our pups when we go out of town:)”
About: As a proud pet parent to two dogs and two cats, I know every pet has their own personality, routine, and way of showing love (or attitude! 😸). I understand how nerve-wracking it can be to leave them with someone else, so my goal is to make you feel just as cared for as your pets. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and believe communication is everything. You’ll get regular updates, photos, and honest check-ins so you can actually relax while you’re away. Whether your pet wants a long walk, a game of fetch, a quiet cuddle, or simply someone to respect their space, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I treat every pet like family and every home with the same care and respect I’d expect for my own. I work from home full-time, which gives me the flexibility to provide consistent care throughout the day while house sitting. Your pets won’t be left alone for long periods, and I can easily fit walks, playtime, potty breaks, feedings, medications, and cuddle sessions into my schedule. Whether you need drop-in visits, walks, or overnight care, I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine. I’m happy to schedule meet and greets to make sure everyone (especially pets) is comfortable. I know that keeping your pet’s routine as normal as possible helps them feel comfortable while you’re away. If you have a schedule, I’ll stick to it! Whether it’s feeding times, medications, walks, bedtime routines, or favorite playtimes, I’ll follow your instructions closely. I treat every home with respect, keep things clean and secure, and provide regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is for you to come home to a happy pet and the peace of mind that everything was well cared for.
“Skylar was awesome. I needed a last minute dog sitter for a couple of hours and Skylar was kind enough to do a last minute meet and greet the day before I needed her. Would definitely recommend and will book again when I need help with my doggies again!”
“Nathan is great as always! He takes such good care of our babies while we are gone! We never have to worry! Lots of updates and pictures so I always know they are well taken care of! Highly recommend! We will continue to use him as our wonderful sitter!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Gotha
Sarah was amazing with my 2 beagles. This was the first time I left them while traveling out of the country and she took care of them just as I do. She was very accommodating with everything the dogs are used to as well as administering medication. She also kept us updated throughout our trip which for was very comforting for me to see how well they were doing with her.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Gotha on Rover is $44.4 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 3,125 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Gotha. 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 Gotha 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 Gotha 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 Gotha 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.
