About: I've taken care of my own pets my whole life, and others' for 8 years now. I created Jackson Pet Care to provide pets with the comfort they need and deserve when their owners are away. I know personally how scary it can be leaving your pets alone, and how heartbreaking it can be to see a pet missing their owner, so I take the honor and responsibility of caring for someone's fur baby to heart. I have experience with cats and dogs, old and young, and would love to use my experience to create a loving environment for your pet. See Jackson Pet Care on Google for reviews from my awesome customers! I am a student (graduating soon!!), so I use the gaps in my schedule to make sure your pets are well loved on and taken care of. I look after an owner's home like it's my own. I’d want to return to a clean, cared-for house and make sure you do the same! I ensure the home environment I am in remains a safe space for the pet and keep them in their regular routine to build trust and comfort.
“Carole was an absolutely wonderful pet sitter! She stayed with our 1.5-year-old rescue puppy and our 11-year-old cat, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was friendly, reliable, and consistently sent plenty of updates and photos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Carole spent quality time caring for and playing with our puppy, making sure his energy and needs were met, while also being respectful of both pets’ unique personalities and boundaries—especially important for our older cat. It was clear she truly cares about animals and takes the time to understand them individually. We would highly recommend Carole to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter, and we”
About: I work from home, have a fenced in backyard, a flexible schedule, and only take one family at a time. I have experience with animals across the lifespan from bottle-fed kittens to senior dogs, special needs pets, and a variety of different animals. I've had pets my whole life: cats (kittens and seniors), dogs (puppies and seniors), birds, fish, and even a domestic rat named Mortimer. I am the first person my friends and family ask to pet sit, because their animals love me, and I love them like my own. I used to foster for a pet rescue and had 10 cats at one point. They were all well taken care of and somehow they all got along! I even fostered a paraplegic cat who I took to physical therapy and had to help him eliminate manually, and a diabetic cat who I had to give insulin injections to. I work from home and have a flexible schedule. This allows for plenty of playtime in the fenced in backyard, cuddles, and walks in our quiet cul-de-sac community. My goal is to provide affordable, reliable care for those who may need to be away from their fur babies during the day or during travel, and want a safe, loving, fun place for them to stay. I have a fenced in back yard and a quiet community, perfect for daytime dog care or boarding. My 7 year old daughter loves animals and is a good helper. Between the two of us, your pet will never be bored or lack for companionship. When caring for dogs, they must be good with children and I would like to arrange a meet and greet beforehand. I prefer to pet sit one animal at a time, or one family at a time (if the family has multiple pets). I prefer not to have animals from different families at the same time, to avoid causing stress and discomfort for the animals.
“Varsha was fantastic and very communicative. She is responsive and took great care of my babies while I was away for the weekend. I would recommend her to anyone and will definitely use her again in the future.”
“There is no better anxiety relief when you travel than knowing that your animals are safe. Medeline was wonderful with my dog, Bo and my cat, King. King did not pitch a fit when I got home from me leaving. Bo has a bit of separation anxiety and even he was easy to have calm back down when I got home. I felt safe having Madeline in my home with my animals and at ease knowing she was there for them. Will book again. Very happy.”
About: When I was 10, my family started fostering pregnant dogs and their puppies. From then on, I became a huge pet person! I have been taking care of my own family dogs, cat, and fosters since I was a child. I have 4 years of professional experience pet-sitting and house-sitting for family friends and neighbors. I walk and feed their pets, love spending time with them, and also make sure they get any medication they need. I have experience with elderly pets, puppies, deaf and blind dogs, cats, and dogs of all sizes! I am home for the summer after college, so I am available to your pets 24/7! I am perfect for housesitting and spending tons of time with your fur baby. I have plenty of experience house sitting while pet sitting. I can take care of your home (collect mail, take out trash, keep it tidy) so your pet can stay comfortable in their own environment when you’re gone.
“Mackenzie was great! She was on time, communicated well and was super nice. She took great care of our pup and was respectful of our home. Will definitely book her again next time we need a dog sitter!”
About: I’m very detail-oriented and take pride in keeping things clean, organized, and exactly how you like them. I’m honest, reliable, and always follow through on what I say I’ll do. You can trust me to take great care of your home and stay on top of everything while you’re away. I work full-time Monday through Friday, but I’m available for evening check-ins, and walks during the week. My weekends are fully open, giving me plenty of time to dedicate to your pets and make sure they get the care, attention, and love they need. With 22 years of experience, I bring a strong attention to detail and a love for keeping things organized and running smoothly. I’m very routine-oriented, so I make sure your home and your pets stay on their normal schedule. You can feel confident knowing everything will be cared for just the way you like while you’re away.
“We couldn't be happier with the care Mai and Jonathan provided for our pets, Cooper and Bec, while we were away on vacation. From the moment we left, they gave us complete peace of mind with regular updates, photos, and thoughtful communication. It's clear that they genuinely love animals and treated both Cooper and Bec like part of their own family. When we returned home, Cooper was happy and well cared for, and Bec was relaxed and content. Knowing that both our dog and cat were receiving such attentive, loving care allowed us to truly enjoy our time away. Mai and Jonathan went above and beyond to make sure all of their needs were met, and we are so grateful for the kindness and responsibility they showed. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, caring, and dependable pet sitters. Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of Cooper and Bec, we would gladly have you watch them again!”
“Kaylan was fantastic house sitting and watching over my 2 dogs and 2 cats. She took great care of my energetic dogs and followed all my pet instructions. I appreciated the daily updates and photos. And my house was tidy on my return. Definitely will be using Kaylan again!”
“Lindsey did a great job taking care of our 3 dogs while we were out of town for the weekend. They can be high maintenance at feeding times, but seemed to have done well.”
About: I have always loved dogs and I have decided that I want to be around dogs in my free time because it makes me happy! I am a soon to be retired school teacher and want to spend my time now with animals especially dogs! For the next 10 months I will be still working my teacher schedule and would like to get a head start on my next venture. I would be available for dog sitting on weekends and dog walks after 3pm during the work week and anytime over weekends. I have always had a dog growing up and very lovingly cared for my own dogs for the last 31 years. I enjoy being around all dogs. When I retire I would also like to volunteer somewhere for dogs. Again, for the next 10 months, I will still be working my teacher schedule and I will be available during the work week after 3 PM for dog walks or drop ins and during the weekend for overnights. I also would be available for some of my school breaks. I have a fenced in backyard and one dog named Lina. She is medium sized and very friendly with other dogs. I would love to love on your fur baby.

Kaylan was wonderful! She watched our pup, cat and house for 9 days. She was easy to communicate with and very responsive when we reached out. She helped our anxious pup get through the fireworks of 4th of July by giving the calming treats in a timely manner & even sent pictures! Our place was clean and tidy when we got home and the pets happy! We will not hesitate to use her again & highly recommend her!
Kasianay was fantastic! She provided detailed updates and took meticulous care of my fur baby, treating her as though she was her own. I felt very confident that my cat was in excellent hands! She also made sure my place was spic and span before I returned to town. I cannot recommend her highly enough!
Absolute best petsitter you could hire! One of our babies had a medical issue that flared up really bad while we were out of town, & Christina spent a whole evening/night with her at the doggy ER. The treatment was pretty extensive, & Christina detailed to me every step she was taking to treat our girl. She did so much more than she probably expected to do, & she did an amazing job. She made it so we didn't feel like we had to worry about whether our baby was getting the care she needed while we were away. We just returned last night, & our girl already seems like she's healing. We can't recommend Christina enough!
Neisha is fantastic! I have hired her three times this year to house sit my dog, Sadie, for several days. She walked Sadie several times a day, played ball with her, and sent adorable pictures, which helped me track how well Sadie was doing. She followed Sadie's dietary needs and attended to Sadie's special nighttime habits. Neisha is punctual and trustworthy. I highly recommend her for anyone looking for a reliable and loving pet sitter.
Amanda took wonderful care of our fur baby, Frodo Baggins, while we were out of town for spring break. She made sure he was fed, walked, and received his medication on schedule, which gave us such peace of mind. We especially appreciated the daily updates and photos, it meant so much to know he was happy and well cared for while we were away. We also came home to a clean, welcoming space, which was such a thoughtful touch. Amanda went above and beyond, and we will absolutely be calling her again!
Sheridan was above and beyond my expectations! I knew she was going to do an amazing job as soon as we did the meet-and-greet. She gave my dog and cat so much love and sent me super cute photos. She updated me on every single situation, and I really appreciated her efforts in taking care of everything. I will definitely recommend her to anyone who needs a responsible and loving pet sitter. On top of the best care she provided to my pets, she even did an amazing job taking care of the house. Our house looks cleaner than when we left it! Words cannot describe how amazing Sheridan is!
Shauna was amazing! She was kind, communicative, and followed all of Todd’s care instructions perfectly. She kept us updated with pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was happy and well cared for. We will definitely be booking with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!

FAQs for House Sitting - Kennesaw
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Kennesaw on Rover is $38.52 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 4,380 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Kennesaw. 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 Kennesaw 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 Kennesaw 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 Kennesaw 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.

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.
