This was my 1st time using Rover, so I was alittle nervous about leaving my babies at the house with an unfamiliar person while we were out of town. I found Kaylani on the Rover site & she was able to schedule a meet & greet with me a few weeks in advance. After meeting her & seeing how she interacted with my babies, I felt reassured that she was going to be a great fit. I was right, Kaylani did a great job, she followed the instructions I left & made my out of town trip feel less stressful for me & my babies.

Great experience with Darayell dropping in to care for my 2 dogs in my home for a week. She kept them to a regular schedule and exercised and played with them during the scheduled times. She was excellent with communication, even when I could not respond due to lack of reliable service at my vacation destination. I would definitely hire her again and refer her out. She will likely see my gos again a couple times within the next few months. They definitely seemed to love the time that she was with them.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have cared for all kinds of breeds, from small companion dogs to larger, high-energy working breeds. I currently care for four dogs and have experience with puppies, including helping care for puppies from birth. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable learning each dog’s personality, routine, and individual needs. Most importantly, I genuinely love animals and want every pet in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I have a flexible schedule, but I also have other work commitments that can vary from week to week. I prefer to receive requests at least 2–3 days in advance so I can confirm my availability and make sure I can provide your pet with reliable, attentive care. I care for pets in their own home so they can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. During drop-in visits, I can provide food and fresh water, clean litter boxes, give them attention and playtime, and make sure they are safe and comfortable. I’m also happy to follow the owner’s specific instructions and their pet’s normal routine.

Heather is a wonderful caretaking to our English Bulldog, Chubbs! She spends quality time with him, takes him on nice long walks, and always updates us on how he's doing while we are away. We appreciate her so much and will continue to use her for pet care in the future!

About: I've taken care of many animals since I was young, I've been a sitter for 2 fur babies for 2years before I moved and I do have my own sweet girl, she just turned 5 this year. I currently work part-time 4-10pm and I am a college students, so I do make time to be around fur babies, being around pets just bring me peace and happiness especially if I'm keeping company, walking or just playing. I would prefer to walk or go to the pets home, I do have children in my home that are at a very busy age.

About: We’ve looked after all kinds of animals! (And believe me I mean all kinds) I’ve been official in pet care for 5yrs, and my husband has 3yrs animal obedience training! Our family has always trusted us as the official pet sitter due to our patience, responsibility, and compassion. We take the time to understand each pet’s unique personality and needs, and our genuine love for animals shows that. Whether they’re playful, senior, shy, or require extra attention, we care for every animal the way we’d want someone to care for our own—with kindness, respect, and lots of love. I run two of my own businesses, so my schedule is very flexible and I’m able to dedicate a lot of time to caring for your pets! I’ve been a CNA for 8 years, and after 4 years in healthcare, I branched out and started my own service. I’ve also owned and operated my pet care business for 5 years! I love being in healthcare, but my true passion has always been animals.🐾❣️My schedule is generally open unless I have something already planned, and I’ll always communicate with clients ahead of time about my availability. I’m also lucky to have my husband by my side! We’re truly a little power team when it comes to caring for your fur babies. He has 3 years of animal obedience training and is an entrepreneur who helps with our pet care in his spare time. When I’m unavailable, he is there to help take over and make sure your pets continue receiving the same loving, dependable care. Because we work as a team, you may interact with or receive care from both of us during your pet’s stay. We’re committed to treating every pet like family and making sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home. 🐶🐱💕 We provide warm, loving, and dependable home for pets of all kinds. We live in a family oriented neighborhood with plenty of space in the house, as well as a large front and partially fenced back yard! (And a large deck for those who love to sun bathe!) Our neighborhood also forms a circle great for walks on a leash! We take the time to understand each pet’s personality, needs, and routine so they feel safe, happy, and comfortable. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, cuddles, medication, or simply offering companionship, we treat every pet like family. We guarantee the care you receive for your pets is the same kindness, patience, and respect I would want for our own. I also offer extra kennels, leashes, bowls, and toys for those who are in a rush and simply forget!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was 10 years old. I have taken dogs for walks, overnight care, administer medication, follow feeding times and making sure that the fur babies are well taken care of. I have a flexible schedule. I can spend most of my time taking care of your dogs. I am available Friday evenings through Sunday nights. I make sure to read over the guidelines from my clients and how they prefer their dogs to be cared for. Let me know if their special care needed.

About: I provide attentive, personalized care based on each dog’s unique needs and routine. From high-energy pups to seniors, I focus on keeping them safe, comfortable, and happy. With regular updates and a genuine love for animals, you can trust your pet is in caring, reliable hands. I’m currently a senior in high-school, but with free weekends and free time during the week, as a dog owner I love meeting new four legged friends to take care of. Staying in your home I make sure that your four legged friends feel safe and comfortable, allowing them to be themselves while you are away

Cassandra was great with our 3 puppies. She was on time, played with them, made sure they ate and cleaned after their mess. She sent us pictures everyday which made us feel at ease. She even picked up an extra day that was previously not discussed without hesitation. I truly appreciate her kindness and professionalism. She takes her job to heart. I'm very happy that we chose her to care after my babies and will definitely book her again. I don't have a necessity to look anywhere else if she's available. Recommend 100% to other fur parents.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters? For me, dogs aren’t just pets—they’re family. I truly believe in “soul dogs,” the once-in-a-lifetime companions who leave paw prints on our hearts forever. I feel incredibly lucky to share my life with two amazing dogs of my own: Dax, my gentle 110-pound giant, and Sandy, my spirited 23-pound sidekick. Living with dogs of very different sizes and personalities has taught me how every dog has unique needs, routines, and ways of communicating. What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and love I give every dog as if they were my own. Whether your pup is energetic and loves long walks and playtime, or prefers quiet companionship and belly rubs, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m attentive to routines, understand the importance of consistency, and believe that trust is earned through kindness and reliability. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your best friend is happy and well cared for. My goal isn’t just to watch your dog—it’s to become someone they’re excited to see again. Pet care is already a big part of my daily life. My two dogs, Dax and Sandy, have consistent routines for feeding, exercise, playtime, and plenty of love and attention, and I understand how important that consistency is for every dog. I work away from home Monday through Thursday, but I have a predictable schedule with consistent departure and return times. This allows me to provide reliable care and lets pet parents know exactly what to expect. On my days off, I spend most of my time at home, giving me plenty of flexibility for walks, playtime, cuddles, and one-on-one attention. When your dog stays with me, they’ll be treated like part of my family. My home is a safe, welcoming environment where they’ll receive plenty of attention, affection, and supervised play throughout the day. I have a securely fenced backyard where dogs can run, explore, play fetch, or simply relax in the sunshine. On warm days, I like to put out a small dog pool so pups can cool off and have a little extra fun. Whether your dog is full of energy or prefers lounging outside and soaking up the fresh air, I’ll make sure they have an enjoyable stay. I know every dog has their own routine and personality, so I’ll do my best to follow their normal schedule for feeding, potty breaks, exercise, and rest. My goal is to provide a home away from home where your dog feels comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away.

He keeps me updated on any developments concerning Rome, and we are pleased with his service. I hope he's apart of the family for a long while.

About: I have grown up with many dogs and tend to spend a lot of time around dogs. I used to dogsit for my neighbors when I was younger and I worked just under a year at a doggy daycare and boarding facility during my senior year of high school and absolutely loved it! I currently am on summer break and have plenty of free time to delegate to dog care. I spend most of my time taking care of my own dogs as well when I am not busy. I am very detail oriented and have experience following exact instructions from pet parents as I worked at a boarding facility previously so I can do whatever is needed of me. My main focus is always to do what is best for the dogs and keep them safe, healthy, and happy.

About: What sets me aside from other dog sitters…? Honestly I’m not sure. Because I would think anyone investing their time into caring for another life, would have the same mind set as myself. To Nurture & to guide! But what I could say about myself. I have more time to give 😊With me just recently moving to Georgia, I don’t have many family or friends here. Since the age of 16 I have always been a dog mom! & I’m happy to say thankfully my baby still here! I have experience with puppies until adult age & elderly. Pet care fit in my everyday life because I have a 6 month old pit who is the life of the family. He will definitely keep you on your toes. But the most Affectionate animal I have every had!! I also have the OG of the family. Ms. Bella. My Shih Tzu Maltese. Affectionate but love her own space. Caring for animals, is just the same as caring for a human. With time spent! So with morning walks/ play time. Feeding. Afternoon, evening. Late night rountie is the same with a Lil slash of conversation 😊Weekly hygiene! Monthly/ yearly check ups I'm currently working part time, So I'll have plenty time to play with your pups! Im available for boarding On the weekdays and weekdays s! I have to 2 fur babies who I love 24/7! I will love yours like my own! With me being Prediabetic I do daily walking!

I was very nervous leaving Caesar (senior Cane Corso) while I was away, especially since I had limited phone and email access, but Ashlee made the entire experience stress-free. Her communication was excellent, and she kept me updated consistently. My dog took to her, and everything went great. She has experience working with large breeds. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was well cared for and comfortable at home instead of his normal visit to pet boarding. I would absolutely trust Ashlee to watch him again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in McDonough on Rover is $21.4 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 4,146 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across McDonough. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a McDonough stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 McDonough 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!

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in McDonough with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in McDonough. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.

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.
