“Melissa was such a blessing! She took the best care of our sweet Lucy. I knew Lucy was comfortable and in great hands because she ate her food everyday and usually she skips days because she’s anxious when we’re gone. Melissa sent wonderful daily updates and photos, too.”
“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.”
“Ms Heather was a God send! She was great with our furry babies, we could not have asked for a better experience from any individual or company. We are looking forward to her services in the very near future!”
About: I’ve cared for pets for friends, family, and others, including feeding, walks, playtime, and overnight care. I’m used to following specific instructions and keeping pets on their normal routine. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, small birds, and bunnies. I’m comfortable with different temperaments and always aim to create a calm, safe environment for every pet. I’m open to taking bookings off of Rover if you want to avoid any fees and make booking easier! :) I’m a full time pet sitter who offers more than just overnight stays. I am available for early morning or late-night care as well. I’m open to last minute bookings as long as my schedule allows! :) I love caring for your pets as if they were my own. I am comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and medications if needed! I love to make sure your pet is still on there normal routine if they have one, so always let me know any specific instructions.

About: With over 6 years of pet sitting experience and 15+ years caring for my own animals, I treat every pet like family. I’m dedicated to providing personalized care, your way, ensuring your pet feels loved and safe while in my care! My open weekly schedule is a little bit tricky due to me working full-time about 20 minutes away. My availability on those days would only be to the pets who don’t need to be let out side for about an eight hour period until I got home. Otherwise, my weekend schedule is fully open and I can be home all day to let any pets outside that I would need to. In my home, pets enjoy plenty of attention, playtime, and walks—with help from my two kids (ages 9 and 11) to keep them company. Pets are welcome on my furniture! In your home, I’ll follow your routine closely and tailor care to your pet’s needs in any way you request.
“Tim is awesome! I’ve used many sitters through Rover and Tim is the best! This is the 2nd time he has watched my 4 dogs and chickens at my house. He feeds them and spends a great deal of time with them. He also goes above and beyond by sweeping my floors and washing the bedding in my guest bedroom he slept in. It’s nice going on vacation and not having to worry. It’s also great coming home from vacation to happy dogs and a clean house.”
About: I have grown up with animals since I was a child, and even have my own dog now. Beyond that, I started pet sitting at a young age for family friends and neighbors. I have also spent summers in-house sitting for family in my surrounding area. I have been trusted to bathe, feed, walk, and create extended care for others’ animals. I’m a student in college, so I have plenty of time to spend with your dogs! I have a few classes during the week. Otherwise, I am available to check-in and care for your pets. I have a dog of my own who I care for independently. I will most definitely treat your pups and cats with the same amount of love and care that I give my own. If there are any accommodations, such as crating or boundaries, or feeding requirements, I would be more than happy to adjust my procedures.
About: I grew up with all sizes of dogs my entire life. When I was 8, I begged my mom for a cat. She finally caved when I was 10 and the rest is history. I work weekdays 9a-6p and Saturdays 8:30a-1:30p. I'm available in the mornings and after 6p. As long as I'm given notice, I am available to visit your pets twice a day. I have a fenced in yard where my dad's two Australian shepherds love to visit when they come over. Plenty of room to run around and have fun!
About: After participating in numerous animal rescue missions during natural disasters, including hurricanes, my passion for animal welfare only grew stronger. I ultimately left a career in education to pursue animal rescue full time. I am currently the Director of Animal Outcomes for the Humane Society for Greater Savannah, bringing extensive hands-on experience and professional knowledge to the care I provide. Caring for animals—especially dogs—is not just my job, it’s my passion. I treat every pet as if they were my own, offering patience, respect, comfort, and plenty of love. My goal is for pet parents to feel completely at ease, knowing their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while they’re away. I work full-time but am available for evening walks and drop-in visits, typically between 7:00 PM and 11:00 PM, as well as flexible availability on my days off, including late-night care when needed. My own pets enjoy daily walks, park visits, and mental enrichment activities to keep them stimulated, happy, and loved. I carry that same level of care and attention into every service I provide. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, compassionate, and dependable caregiver, I would love the opportunity to care for your furry family members. I am currently working full time but I am available for evening walks, pop ins and on days off. My hours can begin staying 7pm and can last till about 11. On my days off I am available when needed. My animals go for daily walks and to the park for I do not have a fenced in yard. I provide them all with mental games to keep them occupied happy and loved.
“Samantha definitely went above and beyond to care for our dogs over the weekend. We never had to worry how they were doing or if they were being taken care of. She was so accommodating. We will definitely ask her to pet sit again!”
About: I have had and been around animals my entire life. I have personally trained my own pets and have pet sat for multiple owners. I have a strong belief that animals do best in their own home environment to help eliminate undue stress. I have a strong passion for animals and enjoy spending time with them. Taking walks and playing with them is as beneficial to them as it is to me. As I prefer to keep animals in their own environment, I like to get instructions from the pet owner on their usual routine. Clear instructions and emergency contacts help me in providing the best care.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Guyton
Aiyanna was great! I reached out to her very last minute because my other dog sitter had fell through. She responded very quickly, and even came by to meet my dog first. She stayed with my pup for 3 days during Thanksgiving which was such a blessing as it’s the holidays & always difficult to find someone who is available. She also checked in with me each day to let me know how he was doing and made sure that he took his medicine each morning. I would 100% recommend her to anyone!

FAQs for House Sitting - Guyton
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Guyton on Rover is $39.59 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 592 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Guyton. 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 Guyton 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 Guyton 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 Guyton 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 Guyton. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
