“Canija was so incredible with our kitty Yue and she even extended our booking last minute when our car broke down! Definitely going to boom again with her in the future!”
“This was my first time having a pet sitter and Heather made the process so seamless. She provided constant updates and photos of my fur babies. I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience, and will definitely be working with Heather in the future!”
“Hailey was great with our two dogs and left our house clean. She kept us updated with pictures, administered the medication our dog needs, and even got the picky one to eat. A great choice for your pets !”
“Lanae did amazing with my two pups! I have an older greyhound and young golden retriever who have the exact opposite personalities haha. She did wonderful with both! She kept me updating throughout the day and sent wonderful pictures to let me know my pups were doing well. I am so grateful for the time she spent with them while we were away. I would recommend her to anyone Loki g for a wonderful dog/house sitter.”
“We booked with Rachel for a 4 night trip to stay in our home and dog sit. Prior to booking, we had a meet and greet. From the beginning it was clear to us that she was passionate about animals. We were taken away at her previous experiences with rescues and fostering and could tell immediately that she would take great care of our baby. Rachel was very professional and respectful of our home. She was very considerate and informative, keeping us up to date throughout the day with her interactions with our baby. She was flexible and accommodating to any of our requests. We would absolutely trust her again to take care of our home and fur baby.”
About: I've taken care of a goofus labador retriver named Ginny for many years along with mulitple cats. My love of animals led me to getting my first job at petsmart pet hotel. I love playing and loving on all pets as much as I can. I'm currently working part time for another technical company from the hours of 9am to 530pm. I mostly likely can do friday through the weekend for sitting. I have enough experience to know what to do for dogs and cats. I will play with them. I will ask for any names or things that will make them comfortable and my top concern is letting them know that I will love on them and I am safe.
“We could not have been more happy with Tammie taking care of our pups ! She did an amazing job. She always stayed in communication with us whether by sending updates via text or sending pictures and videos of our pups. It was also obvious that our pups developed a bond with Tammie. which is extra comforting. We truly knew that our pups were in the right hands and our pups knew also. We will definitely call on Tammie again. Thank you Tammie !”
“Great with all my furbabies and I have 5 total she actually sits with them the whole time and plays with them lets them in and out and sends pictures. She is very responsive along with sending her own picture updates throughout the house sitting . I will definitely be contacting her for any future house sitting needs 😊”
“We are so thankful for Amanda! She took such great care of our elderly dog over the weekend and went above and beyond to make sure she was comfortable and well cared for. Her communication was excellent, she showed up early, and he even went the extra mile by cleaning the sheets afterwards. Truly wonderful experience. We felt completely at ease knowing our pup was in such caring hands. Highly recommend!”
About: With 10+ years of experience caring for dogs and cats in their homes, I understand how important it is for your pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. I have experience caring for everything from young puppies to senior dogs, including multiple dogs in one household and high-energy dogs who need plenty of exercise and attention. I’m comfortable following individualized routines, including special diets and oral or topical medications/treatments. I’m also happy to learn and follow your pet’s specific care instructions to make sure their routine stays as consistent as possible while you’re away. For active dogs, I’m more than happy to match their energy—I’m willing to go on whatever length of walk is appropriate for their needs rather than treating exercise as a one-size-fits-all service. Whether your dog needs a long walk and lots of playtime or prefers a quiet, relaxed day at home, I’ll tailor their care to them. I know that house sitting is about more than just caring for your pets. I’ll treat your home with the same respect and care I would want someone to show my own, and I’ll make sure your pets receive plenty of attention, companionship, and affection while you’re away. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available most days for pet care, including daytime visits, walks, and overnight house sitting. I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pets and can accommodate their individual routines and needs. My availability will become more limited when I begin my full-time position later this year, but I will keep my Rover calendar up to date and only accept bookings I can give my full attention to. When caring for your pets in your home, I treat both your pets and your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I follow your instructions and your pets’ normal routines closely, including feeding, medications, exercise, and other special care needs. I’m attentive to safety and will make sure your pets are secure and comfortable throughout my stay or visit. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I've taken care of dogs for 10 years. I've owned a American Pit Bull Terrier, fostered a German shepherd, and cared for a mini poodle. You can sleep peacefully knowing that I will care for your pet as if it was my own. I am a full time student but mostly online and goes to on site class twice a week for two hours. But you can put your trust in knowing your pet will receive the proper attention plus more. Both early morning/ late evening walks plus lots of play time. I have a extra play room for your pet and 2 dogs parks that are a quick walk to get to. Animals are not allowed on the furniture but are always free to roam my home. If needed I can crate your pet as well. If overnight boarding is required for longer than 3 days, bathing will be provided.
About: We’ve looked after all kinds of animals! (And believe me I mean all kinds) I’ve been official in pet care for 5yrs, and my husband has 3yrs animal obedience training! Our family has always trusted us as the official pet sitter due to our patience, responsibility, and compassion. We take the time to understand each pet’s unique personality and needs, and our genuine love for animals shows that. Whether they’re playful, senior, shy, or require extra attention, we care for every animal the way we’d want someone to care for our own—with kindness, respect, and lots of love. I run two of my own businesses, so my schedule is very flexible and I’m able to dedicate a lot of time to caring for your pets! I’ve been a CNA for 8 years, and after 4 years in healthcare, I branched out and started my own service. I’ve also owned and operated my pet care business for 5 years! I love being in healthcare, but my true passion has always been animals.🐾❣️My schedule is generally open unless I have something already planned, and I’ll always communicate with clients ahead of time about my availability. I’m also lucky to have my husband by my side! We’re truly a little power team when it comes to caring for your fur babies. He has 3 years of animal obedience training and is an entrepreneur who helps with our pet care in his spare time. When I’m unavailable, he is there to help take over and make sure your pets continue receiving the same loving, dependable care. Because we work as a team, you may interact with or receive care from both of us during your pet’s stay. We’re committed to treating every pet like family and making sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home. 🐶🐱💕 We provide warm, loving, and dependable home for pets of all kinds. We live in a family oriented neighborhood with plenty of space in the house, as well as a large front and partially fenced back yard! (And a large deck for those who love to sun bathe!) Our neighborhood also forms a circle great for walks on a leash! We take the time to understand each pet’s personality, needs, and routine so they feel safe, happy, and comfortable. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, cuddles, medication, or simply offering companionship, we treat every pet like family. We guarantee the care you receive for your pets is the same kindness, patience, and respect I would want for our own. I also offer extra kennels, leashes, bowls, and toys for those who are in a rush and simply forget!
“Megan is beyond amazing!! She’s watched our babies for the past 3 times we’ve gone out of town, and I’m able to actually enjoy my time away because I know they are in incredible hands. She sends us daily photos of them and loves our doodles as if they are her own. We love Megan so so much!”
About: I'm all about consistency, structured, and love. You and your baby(ies) will feel secure with me. I'm very detailed and organized. I grew up in an old school 24hr home daycare for children. I feel fur babies should get that same attention, devotion and love. I also provide transportation for humans. 🐶 Pups who enjoy car rides travel with me for ride. For my pup parents, I also provide transportation to the airport for an additional fee. Pup parents are welcome to park their vehicle in my driveway. I create a place of peace for my fur babies. My home has a calm environment. Older pups who don't care to be bothered with other pups are separated. I make sure personal space is respected.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was 10 years old. I have taken dogs for walks, overnight care, administer medication, follow feeding times and making sure that the fur babies are well taken care of. I have a flexible schedule. I can spend most of my time taking care of your dogs. I am available Friday evenings through Sunday nights. I make sure to read over the guidelines from my clients and how they prefer their dogs to be cared for. Let me know if their special care needed.
“We absolutely love Kaila! She is always warm, kind, and dependable, and Max is so excited to see her every time. We've used her twice for day trips and were so happy with the care she provided that we've already booked her for an extended long weekend. We highly recommend her!”
“Kanija was very prompt in her reply and spot on with arrival time. My three dogs were very receptive to her and the attention she gave them. I would most definitely recommend her as a pet sitter and would use again if needed.”
About: I love taking care and loving pets! I will treat the pets as if they are my own, and will be sure to keep them in good hands! I am available whenever on weekdays and available all day on weekends! I am very easy to work with schedule wise, and will be sure to put your pet in the best care! I have a chocolate lab, and love him unconditionally! I care for pets and will be sure to treat them all like they are my own.

Carmen was great with my 4 dogs while house sitting. During the meet and greet she was very thorough in making sure the stay would go smoothly. She treated my home with respect and was great with the dogs and sending me plenty of photos while we were away. I'd definitely contact Carmen again if I needed a house sitter for my dogs.

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 Griffin 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 Griffin 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Griffin 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 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.
