“Do yourself a favor now and book Jessica to take care of your pets! She is super sweet and kind and my dogs and cats all loved her immediately. It’s obvious that she is an animal person, and she treated my babies like her own. I got lots of pictures while I was out of town, and I came home to a super clean house and happy pets! She also gave me a detailed summary at the end of her stay and kept me updated on any issues. We love Jessica and will definitely be working with her again!! ☺️”
“Joanna is the best. She really interacts with our Lula Mae, keeps her active and happy. She sends pictures to keep you updated and we always come home to a happy pup. Our house always looks great when we get home as well. I can't recommend her enough.”
“Shannon was great! I need someone in a very short amount of time and she was able to make it happen. Easy to get in touch with communication is outstanding. Our 2 goldens were loved on so much and very well taken care of while we were gone. Will definitely ask her to watch them again!!”
“Rammiyah was great with my Great Dane Journey, who has severe separation issues. When we got back Journey was calm and no signs of stress or anxiety. I can't thank Rammiyah enough for taking such great care of my baby!”
“Kiara did an excellent job taking care of our large pack (3 pups & a kitty cat). She sent pictures of the gang cuddling each day. Took the pups for a walk. Everyone seemed very relaxed when we got back. She kept the house in excellent condition. Will absolutely call her again.”
“Savannah is an absolute gem! She recently took care of our 3 pups and our home while we spent a week at the beach, and she went above and beyond! She made sure we were updated on how the pups were doing and actively looked for ways to help us around our home to make our return so much easier. Our pups were so happy when we came home, we could tell they received so much TLC. Highly recommend!”
“Morgan is a very capable and professional dog and house sitter. My dogs love her. She is thoughtful, patient, and kind. She took up lots of time w the pets and followed instructions. Will book w Morgan again.”
“Zoe was reliable and responsive, and we came home to a clean house with happy dogs! She sent lots of picture updates. We had definite peace of mind, and we are excited to book with her again!”
“Shannon was fantastic. She saved us from a last minute cancellation, and was a pleasure to work with. She looked after our small clan of pets: Samus the skiddish Aussie Shepherd, Oscar the grouchy Siamese & Yoshi the timid tabby point, over the weekend. Shannon was patient with Samus, as it takes her a bit to warm up to new folks. It was clear that Shannon really enjoys being around animals and took great care of our pets. She sent videos of playtime with the dog and told us how the cats absolutely loved her. Would highly recommend, and she will be our first call on our next get-away.”
About: From loving my own two french bulldogs, and dachshund (with 2 kittes) to traveling the world, caring for large exotic animals, my experience ranges far. I look forward to meeting and caring for your sweet animals as well! My partner and I both work from home, with no pets in the house of our own! We love to have animals to keep us busy!! With our schedules, your pup will almost never be left alone!!! (: I care for pets in several ways! I am always willing to go the extra mile- as someone who (tries to) exercise regularly I am always looking for ways to get outside; whether that be walking, running, or throwing the ball! I am located right on the beltline in Atlanta! Because of my location, it is important that your dog gets along with other dogs, it’s impossible not to run into other pups in this area! Not only do I enjoy spending intentional time with your pets but I want to put my clients at peace too. I am a reliable and fast communicator who you can contact any time of the day. Expect multiple pictures of your pets as well as updates during the days you are gone, unless specifically requesting otherwise.
“Very happy with how Latoya cared for my babies. I have two dogs and a cat and they we're all loved and cared for while we we're away. Trusting your babies and your home to someone when you're away can always be tough. It is nice to know that I could trust Latoya. Will definitely look for her help again!”
“Cristal and Edgar were so great. We were only able to do a meet and greet two days before service began, but they were ready and willing to help my nervous doggie feel loved and cared for. They also watched out for our two bunnies while we were away. They sent pics and provided updates frequently. I won’t hesitate to hire them again.”
About: I've loved dogs all my life from my first, as a child, to my current, Niko. Niko and I have been together for 11 years. He is the second dog to my first, Chance. Chance was with me for 15.5 beautiful years before he passed in 2023. I have experience with puppies and senior dogs and I'm so ready to love on your babies. I've been encouraged for years to do something like this and now is the time to do it. I hope I get to meet your little family. I'm currently changing direction in my career. I've worked in retail for over 20 years and I am no longer interested in being in a store setting. While I transition, I would love to dive into this passion of mine. I will have open availability while in this transition. I follow the directions of the pet owner if I'm in their home and if no specific direction is given, I treat the pet as my own. I have cared for pets in my home as well and if no specific direction is given, I follow the routine of my own pet.
About: I am a homemaker at heart, so I take pride in maintaining my home and all that's inside, including pets! I've lived my entire young life with a pet dog, so I know how much love, care, and attention that goes into taking care of our little ones. I've had a puppy, and I've had a senior dog, so my range of pet care is broad! I also have experience upkeeping and maintaining businesses and homes for those who require housesitting services! I'm currently a middle school English teacher, so I'm free in the afternoons and evenings to care for your little guys! I wake up pretty early, so early morning walks aren't an issue either. My availability is from 4 pm- 10 pm, unless it's an overnight stay! I can also do early morning walks (5 am) if the furry friend is in my area! I live in a quiet area with two fur-loving roommates! We have lots of indoor and outdoor space for pets to roam around and get fresh air.
About: I am a 20-year-old dog sitter with 3 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of various breeds, sizes, and personalities. As a proud owner of two dogs, I understand the importance of providing pets with love, attention, exercise, and a safe environment while their owners are away. I am currently studying to become a veterinarian, which has strengthened my knowledge of animal behavior, health, and well-being. I am passionate about providing dependable, compassionate care and treating every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for at all times. I'm a full time pet sitter full time student I work around my schedule and time during weekly sittings so everyone is happy and a get my work done As a dog owner myself, with two dogs of my own, I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and loving care. I also keep pet areas clean, follow any special instructions provided by owners, and provide updates with photos and messages so owners can have peace of mind while they are away. As a veterinary student, I pay close attention to pets’ overall well-being and can recognize when something seems unusual, allowing me to communicate any concerns promptly. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and cared for just as they would be with their own family.

Khaleigh was great! We always feel nervous leaving our pets and she helped us feel relaxed and comfortable with them in her care. She was able to follow our instructions for 6 pets (3 cats and 3 dogs) including medication administration, senior dog care, and mobility assistance. She communicated with us and we felt they were very safe and cared for.

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 Lithonia 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 Lithonia 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 Lithonia 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.
