“Alyssa cared for our cat, Mocha, for two days and stayed overnight at our home. This was our first time leaving Mocha for an extended period and using a cat sitter, so we were a little nervous but Alyssa put our minds at ease. It was clear that Mocha was comfortable with her—she continued eating, playing, and sleeping normally throughout the weekend. She even seemed to enjoy some in-depth conversations with Alyssa! We received regular updates and photos, which helped us feel connected and reassured while we were away. Alyssa also left our home neat and tidy. Overall, she did a fantastic job caring for both Mocha and our house. We would book with Alyssa again and recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”
“As always Kellie makes it possible for us to travel away. It’s so nice to know our pets are well taken care of. Never an issue, tons of pictures to check in and open communication.”
“Natalya was very friendly, communicative, and took good care of the pets and house. I really appreciated her picture updates, and she even took my dog on an extra trip to the park! Would definitely re-book”
“Have called her several times now and will continue to schedule. She comes with her dog, Wilbur who is cute and cuddly. He even played with Cedar! Cedar is usually tired after the visits. Highly recommend!”
About: Hi everyone! I am a recent law school graduate who is currently studying for the bar exam. You're not supposed to "work" during bar prep, but life is expensive, and I needed to find a way to make money for food and rent while I study. The nice part about studying is that I am available 24/7, around the clock. As long as I have wifi, I can study anywhere, and I can take a break every 1.5-2 hours to walk dogs, check in on pets, play fetch, etc. As for my history, I grew up with dogs and cats. We had german shepherds when I was a kid, and a few indoor cats as well. I have volunteered for multiple different animal rescues in Oregon- ranging from farm sanctuaries to foster based rescue programs, where I fostered 11 different dogs and puppies over the course of 6 months and got them all adopted into good homes! I have watched all types of animals for friends and family- including older pets, pets who need medication, pets with epilepsy, etc. Please reach out to me! I would love to meet your pets and help out in any way I can! I am currently not working while I study for the Oregon bar exam. This means I am free 24/7 and super flexible! I can house sit, drop-in, do daily walks, or anything else you may need. I respect my clients' homes, keep pets on a regular schedule, and ensure they receive companionship, exercise, and attentive care while their owners are away. I use secure leashing practices, monitor surroundings carefully during walks, and provide exercise, enrichment, feeding, medication administration (if needed), and detailed visit updates and photos!
About: I have taken care of small and large dogs ranging from those that are cautious of people to the ones who want to be your best friend. I come from a family of cat lovers and we’ve have many long hair cats over the years. I offer you peace of mind as a responsible, trustworthy and caring sitter. I work full time Mon-Fri with the flexibility to work remote. I am available for short and long term care, drop-ins and dog walking services. I am respectful and understand the importance of schedules. I feel following standard routines helps ease the stress pets may experience with their owners being away. I have experience giving meds and lots of treats. We all love a snack.
“We were in a real bind to get a sitter and she was able to help us at the last minute. She took great care of both of our dogs and even washed some of their blankets while we were gone. Would recommend her again!”
About: I’ve pet sat for over 10 years for friends & family. I’d love to care for yours. I have two tabby’s who are well trained and have been around dogs in the past. My pup unfortunately passed away last summer and I’m not ready to get on full time but would love to care for yours as I cared for her and give them the best experience while you’re away. I have the weekend free, Columbia and I tend to go on hikes and or at the park. During the week, I go home directly to let my own dog out to the bathroom. I will follow any instructions following your pet. I understand how important consistency is. We have a side yard for playing, potty breaks or sunbathing.
“Chris meet and exceeded my expectations. He took great care of my two girls and I could tell they were comforted by his presence when I received my photos. I was able to fully relax on my vacation and not worry about my puppers. I have experience with quite a few boarding and pet sitters and Chris has been the best. House was also well cared for and as clean as when I left it. Very respectful and reliable sitter.”
About: I'm an animal lover. I had dogs and cats and mainly had just dogs/cats in the past. I've always wanted to take care of animals. Even starting out as a walker/sitter it’s fun to be able to help I live in a house with a yard and they do allow animals. I will make sure they will not be able to escape. I will never forget to feed them. Play with them. Take them out whenever they need to go. I will keep the owners up to date with everything involving their pets. I have a small back patio but the place does have a big dog park! I do want to put that making a list of things that you normally would do with your pet, fill free to write down and tell me. Any questions at all ask me. Please review on booking me. Currently unemployed and my first time being pregnant! So I am looking into making some income someway before starting back up work but I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! And or cats! I’m available for walking/ check ins any time of day(I’ll be a bit slow but definitely high energy for the furry ones! I’m great at providing whatever needs fit, either high energy for a young pup or a low casual exercise for those senior babies lol :) If I were to care for someone’s pet in their home I’d make sure to bring extra items for their pets like extra food bowls, walking harnesses/leashes or food.
“Thank you Phillip so much for coming and staying and housesitting with my two dogs lolly and Putter. You gave them excellent care took care of my household and everything looked beautiful When I got home. You kept in touch with me sending me pictures. You’re the best and I will absolutely request you again. Thank you so much. I so appreciate you.”
About: I have fostered over fifty dogs and cats for the SPCA of Northern Nevada, and fostered my cat Chandler as a kitten before adopting him. I have an open schedule with a lot of daily availability and my own vehicle, and can assist with pet care on weekends and weekdays. I am patient and loving to all pets, and have a strong understanding of the needs of different breeds of dogs and cats at different life stages. I live with my partner who has a year of experience working at a dog day care with a variety of pups, and has volunteered with me as a cat socializer as well.
“We had an amazing experience with Alivia and would recommend her to everyone looking for a dog sitter! She took such good care of our dog while we were gone. He’s kind of anxious around new people and she was so kind and patient with him, she sent us videos of him wagging his tail and being goofy :)”
About: I have a tremendous love and respect for all animals. My attentive nature surges when in the presence of any animal… they are all I care about! I have been taking care of my family and friends pets for years! I can do special instructions with medicine for animals as well. I am currently working at Starbucks as a barista. My store that I work at is only 5 mins from my apartment. My shifts are normally no longer than 6 hours, and my boyfriend is home full time as well. Besides from work I am always home! I live in a cozy apartment with two of my own little kitties! I have a soft, large, playpen enclosure for your pet if needed, but my kitties are pretty friendly!
About: I have had 4 dogs and 7 cats throughout my life and have held a special connection with each of them! I have been taking care of pets since I was very young and have experience walking dogs and taking care of cats, both my pets and other peoples pets! It fits easily and naturally into my weekly schedule! I am a student at Willamette University but while on summer break, I have a lot of free time outside of my part-time job. I find caring for animals enjoyable and natural and easily apart of my daily routine for my own pets. I will ensure the pets I am caring for are comfortable with me and are excited to go on walks or interact with me!
“Ryessa was wonderful with our dog, Minion, and our cat, Creature. She was communicative, responsive, and kept us updated throughout the stay with messages and photos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. She was easy to work with, took excellent care of our pets and home, and made the entire experience stress-free. We really appreciated her reliability and clear communication. We would happily book with her again and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter!”
About: hi there! Im Dylan and I can't wait to meet you and your pet. I became a pet sitter because I adore dogs, and I can't have one of my own right now so I'm here to give lots of love and attention to yours! I'm very understanding of dogs that are a little more anxious, and provide them with a calm presence during the stay. Your pet is your family, and I understand what it's like to be away from them, even if you're off doing something fun. I'm responsible, creative, and have been described as an old soul. I love meeting new people and dogs-and being a part of a thriving community. When your dog is with me, they'll get lots of one on one attention, and lots of love ! Im currently free anytime any day during the week. So whatever works for you is great to me. Monday through Friday even weekends are fine. I provide safe, and fun interactions with all pets I look after. I am respectful of all pet owners and their pets and am able to follow any specific care instructions set forth. I'm currently working part time so I'll have plenty of time playing with your pups! And updating you on how the sitting is going ! I have no fenced yard. But well enough of space to keep your pup occupied and having fun ! Friendly neighborhood safe environment for your pup !

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hayesville
We are so happy we found Wes to come stay with our pets while we're away. He has a great way with the dog and even our very shy cat. He kept in touch with us and regularly sent photos and videos. (As a bonus the photos were really, really good. We didn't realize a professional photo shoot would be included, lol.) Upon our return we found the house clean and tidy and possibly better than we left it. (Did he talk the pets into not shedding while we were gone?) It's always challenging finding reliable house/petsitters; we are so relieved we've got Wes in our contact list now and will definitely try to book him again for the next vacation.
Blue took excellent care of our pets, including 3 exotic pets. They sent us lots of pictures of our babies. When I got home, I noticed changes in food and supply (and hand soap) levels/amounts consistent with that of my normal care- evidence that Blue was paying as much attention to our pets as we do! Blue had excellent communication with us, and they left our home clean and orderly. We had a great experience with Blue, and we will request them again!
Kellie is amazing. Within hours of arriving she had bonded with both of our dogs, sending us pictures and videos which let us know that our pets and house were in good hands and we could relax and enjoy our trip. She clearly loves animals, is very professional in her approach to this work, and is fun and easy to work with.
I had a sitter have to cancel super short notice and Daphne absolutely saved us! I have 3 very spoiled boy cats who are all in different stages of life (kitten - adult - senior) and she was able to follow specific instruction without issue. It was much easier relaxing on my trip knowing my boys where in good hands ☺️
Sage helped us with a partial refund due to returning earlier for a family emergency. We have used her before and she left the house in excellent shape, bonded with our cat, and is a great communicator. We would definitely recommend her and use her services again.
Noelle is so sweet, responsive, responsible & respectful! Our boys took to her easily (and that’s rare!) - she stayed at our home and took amazing care of them. She asked the right questions, stayed in contact throughout the stay and was willing to go above and beyond. Highly recommended!

FAQs for House Sitting - Hayesville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Hayesville on Rover is $31.08 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 1,126 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Hayesville. 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 Hayesville 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 Hayesville 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 Hayesville 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 Hayesville. On Rover:
- 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 92% 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.
