I would trust Thomas with my fur baby anytime! He was very polite and Buddy my dog took to him immediately. While we were gone, Thomas took pictures and video so we knew Buddy was good. He even hung out with Buddy watching a soccer game! It was never an in and out 5 minute visit. Buddy was very happy when we returned. So grateful for Thomas!

I rarely leave my pup at home. I was gone for 5 days. The last time I left (a year ago), I had a friends daughter sit Iris. Iris was super excited when I got home. This time with William, when i got home, she was much less excited...like i just got home from work. This tells me that she barely missed me when I was away. This makes me sooo happy!

Emily was amazing! She kept us updated with pictures and videos. Our babies loved her. And after getting delayed for our flight back she was gracious with needing to be flexible by adding an extra check in.

About: As a pet parent myself, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets and your home. I have experience pet sitting and am comfortable following each pet’s usual routine, whether that includes walks, meals, playtime, litter box care, or simply keeping them company. I’m dependable, attentive, and happy to send plenty of photos and updates while you’re away. My goal is to help your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved - and give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I currently have a flexible schedule while I do freelance remote work, which allows me to make pet care a consistent part of my daily routine. I’m available throughout the week for drop-in visits, walks, and overnight stays, and I can adjust my schedule around your pet’s usual feeding, exercise, and bedtime routines. I provide pet care exclusively in my clients’ homes, where pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routines. I follow all care instructions closely and am especially careful with doors, gates, leashes, feeding, and any household rules. I’m respectful of each client’s home, clean up after the pets and myself, and provide regular photos and updates. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality and needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their family is away.

Paige helped with our 2 dogs and kitten while we were away for a week. She did an excellent job of updating us, engaging with our pets, and following through with medications, drop-ins, etc. One of our dogs is very senior and on a good number of daily medications, and we were completely at ease while we were gone knowing that she was administering the care needed. I look forward to continuing to work with her in the future. She's also just a really great person and I would happily refer her to my family and friends. Thank you, again, Paige!

About: Hi! My name is shellawn and I am a 27 year old, pet caretaker, and a mother of one child who is 5 years old. I have one dog name prince who lives with my mother but I still help take care of my longtime prince. I am available for Home Visits for dogs. I can provide feedings, walks, fresh water, medications, and, of course PLAY TIME! Cuddle time is also my specialty :) I have owned and cared for all types of animals since I was 12 years old. Over the years I have been to many classes and courses on proper way to handle and train dogs of all ages, so I can also help with dog training, from house breaking to not pulling when on a leash/ off leash recall. I'm currently stay at home, so I have plenty of time to play and love on your babies, with multiple potty breaks a day, and walks. I stay at home so your babies will receive round and clock care, I have a dog park where I live so I can take any of the fur babies to the park to play and show them all the fun they can have running and playing together, in a nice quiet and safe neighborhood. Please note that 10 miles is the max distance for walks, please contact me prior to booking to be sure I can accommodate further distances for services. Home visits: I am background checked and can provide references as to my character and work. I realize how important it is for you to feel secure that anyone visiting your home to be reliable, trustworthy, responsible, and respectful. I will treat your home and precious babies with the same care and respect I would demand for my own needs, including frequent communication, attention to detail, and going the extra mile whenever that is required. You can expect me to clean up after your babies and make sure they are safe and comfortable. I document all of your instructions and can provide feedback as needed. Requested information if needed. I work part time so I have plenty of time to play and care for any pets. I am available around the clock for walks or play time. At my apartments, we have a dog park here that is fenced in. Also I am willing to take for many walks in areas that are safe and free of other dogs for safety precautions.

About: What sets us apart? It’s simple: love, attention, and a team that never misses a beat. We are a dedicated three person team who ensure your pet’s comfort, care, and happiness never stop, even when life gets busy. We have experience with pets of all sizes, personalities, and special needs, including dog reactive dogs and those who require medication. Every animal in our care receives one on one attention, plenty of playtime, and all the cuddles or adventures they need to feel safe, loved, and spoiled. Your pets also get the benefit of companionship. Our 4 story townhome has a built in Golden Retriever bestie for dogs who love to have fun and a floor plan that allows for a calm, spacious environment for the fur-iends who don’t! We go the extra mile so you can relax while away and provide consistent communication and photos so you can check in without worry! Whether it is boarding, walks, drop-ins, or playdates, our mission is the same: to provide a loving, safe, and happy experience for every pet, making sure they are cared for like family. Pet care is a natural part of our daily and weekly routine. I work from home full time, which gives me the flexibility to provide consistent attention, cuddles, and supervision for every pet in our care. With a dedicated team of three, we ensure that coverage is always available for walks, playtime, meals, medication, and any special needs. We only board one pet family at a time, so your pet(s) receive consistent and undivided attention throughout their stay. Whether it’s a quick drop in, a long walk, or an extended stay, we integrate pet care seamlessly into our day so your furry friend always receives one on one attention, love, and consistency, even when our work or personal schedules are busy. Every day is built around the pets in our care, so they have companionship, enrichment, and comfort at all times. This routine allows us to provide a safe, happy, and stress free environment for your pet while giving you peace of mind! For drop-ins, we follow the schedule you provide, offering walks or playtime in the yard, companionship and belly rubs, and meal times to keep your pet happy and comfortable. In our home, we provide a dedicated space tailored to your pet’s needs. For pets who love to play, they will enjoy spending time with our Golden Retriever, Murphy, who loves to play both inside and out. With nearby walking trails and a pet park, your dog is ensured all the fun, exercise, and play they need. Boarding includes two half mile walks per day, a potty break, and indoor/outdoor playtime. Please note that dogs who require longer or additional walks may have a small extended exercise fee depending on the routine requested. For pets who need some space, we offer an entire level of our home pet-free, so they can feel comfortable and safe while still having access to cozy spots like a couch, belly rubs, and extended walks for extra stimulation. For cats, we provide a private floor where they can lounge, soak up the sun, play with toys, and enjoy a calm, comfortable environment without the stress of unknown pets around. We also provide a complimentary litter box, so you can board your cat without the worry of hauling their personal throne, just bring their preferred litter. For small animals, we offer a secluded and relaxing environment where they can enjoy their enclosure in a way that best suits their individual needs. Our approach is all about personalized care, comfort, and enrichment, ensuring every pet feels safe, loved, and stimulated while in our home or during visits.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, so taking care of them has always been second nature to me. Right now I have two dogs of my own, Ali, my Cockapoo, and Queen, my Great Pyrenees. They have completely different personalities, so I know every dog has their own routine and needs. Even though I’m new to Rover, I’m dependable, patient, and I’ll care for your dog the same way I care for mine. Whether it’s a walk, a drop-in visit, or staying with them in your home, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I’ll also send plenty of updates and pictures so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I currently offer dog walking & drop-in visits. I work full-time, so I’m mostly available on weekends, some holidays, and other times depending on my schedule. I’ll always be upfront about my availability before accepting a booking. Once I commit, I’ll make sure your pet gets the care, attention, and love they deserve, and I’ll stick to their normal routine as closely as possible. I know leaving your pet with someone else can be stressful, so I want you to feel comfortable from the start. I’ll treat your home with respect, follow your pet’s routine, and pay attention to the little things that make them feel safe and comfortable. I’ll also keep you updated with pictures and messages so you always know how they’re doing.

I rarely leave my pup at home. I was gone for 5 days. The last time I left (a year ago), I had a friends daughter sit Iris. Iris was super excited when I got home. This time with William, when i got home, she was much less excited...like i just got home from work. This tells me that she barely missed me when I was away. This makes me sooo happy!

FAQs for House Sitting - Macon

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Macon on Rover is $35.52 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 159 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Macon. 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 Macon 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 Macon 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 Macon 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
