“Madison was great and went above and beyond during her visits. Our Cat Mocha is doing great and things are in order, we did not have any issues or questions . We will definitely keep her in mind for the upcoming trips/plan, as well as refer her to others. We really appreciate Madison's help. The whole process was very smooth. Thanks Rover and Madison!”
“Desiree was absolutely wonderful with my dog while I was out of town. She was reliable, caring, and made sure my dog was well taken care of the entire time. I really appreciated the updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that she genuinely cares about the pets she watches, and my dog was happy and comfortable when I returned home. I highly recommend Desiree to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“I can't say enough good things about Kaylee. She saved me when some plans fell through, and responded immediately to all communication when I was stressed. She did several drop-in visits for my large, enthusiastic golden retriever, and provided cute pictures of him chasing his tennis ball and having fun, which was so reassuring. She was extremely prompt during the range of times I provided. I can see why she has so many positive reviews--would 100% book again.”

“Unity was wonderful and gave us updates and pictures with every visit. We even had a little ant problem and Unity took care of it for us. It really shows that Unity loves animals and they love her.”
About: Hi, I’m Jess and I’m a mom of two kiddos and two dogs! I have had dogs as family pets my entire life and consider them to be cherished members of the family! From childhood family dogs into my adulthood and everything in between, I’ve cared for dogs my entire life - big or small, young and old, quiet or playful! I love them all. I have been a Woodstock/Canton resident for over 40 years and have cared for my extended families pets over the years. My husband, two kids and I currently have two pitties, Tilly (6) and Ruby (3, deaf) who were both rescued from the local shelter. I look forward to meeting and greeting your dog with love and care and am available for drop-in’s or dog walking. I can provide references as well! I currently work from home full time, but have flexible lunch hours and evening hours are very flexible. Weekend hours to let out or walk your pups are also flexible! Having a fully deaf dog to care for in our home has definitely kept me hyper aware of signals I receive and give to her, learning how to communicate and interact with her effectively and keeping the environment safe. This is how I would approach caring for anyone’s dog, not just my own.
“Ana was wonderful with Buddy while we were away! She was reliable, communicative, and gave us so much peace of mind during our trip. Buddy can be very picky and set in his routines, and Ana was incredibly patient and caring with him. We truly appreciated the updates, attention, and care she provided throughout the week. It made it so much easier for us to relax knowing he was being looked after so well. We’re very grateful for all of her help and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and dependable pet sitter. 💛”
“Shelby met with us before we hired her and was good with our dogs in person. She did mid-day breaks two days in a row while we were unable to be at home. She navigated two energetic youngsters and a senior pup. Will use again.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family always had at least one dog in the house. So I learned the basics of feeding, grooming, walking , and training from an early age. As I got older. I naturally became the go-to dog sitter for neighbors and friends in the community. Whether it was daily walks, overnight stays, or just keeping a dog company while their owners were away, I’ve always enjoyed making a dog comfortable while I was watching them. Currently, I have my own dog (Milo) who is 2yrs old. I have gained experience in giving my dog a happy and healthy life. It’s never been a chore to me - it’s something I take joy in. I’m currently working full time through the week. I am available for boarding on Fridays after 5:30pm and through the weekends, so I will have plenty of time for fun with the fur babies. I have a fenced in backyard. I have 2 dogs (Milo and Maggie Mae) that can keep your fur babies company. There is a park near by for walking and fun!
“Caden was great with my babies while I was away. He was able to give my asthmatic cat his inhaler which can be a difficult task to do, especially for someone new. Recommend Caden for anyone in need!”
“Samantha was very professional and took great care of our kitties while we were out of town! We missed them a lot but it was comforting to know she was there to love on them while we couldn’t be. I highly recommend her to take care of your fur babies!”

About: I’ve been dog sitting since I was 15 when I first started dog sitting for my neighbors elderly dog. Since then, my experience has grown from household stays to quick drop by’s when you’re away at work. I’ve taken care of puppies, elderly dogs, and cats of all ages, understanding that all pets have their own unique needs. I’m recent graduate from Kennesaw State University, which means I have plenty of extra time to dedicate to pet care! I’ve been pet sitting for neighbors and friends, and I’m excited to find even more opportunities.

When caring for pets in their own home, I am following their usual routines, making sure they feel at ease and well-loved while their owners are away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Hickory Flat is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $29 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 6,982 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Hickory Flat. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
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.

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.
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.
