About: I've always been a lover of all animals especially fur babies. They hold a special place in my heart ever since I was younger,volunteering every chance I get at the local shelters while growing up and also into adulthood, donating, fundraising, cleaning up wherever I was needed afterschool before heading home for the day.That's when I vowed to have all my pets as rescues. And encouraged my family and friends to do the same,and they did without hesitation because they know the good it did for the shelters ,plus I feel like rescue pets are the sweetest if i do say so myself. I'm hoping to have an opportunity to care for your furbabies also,and treat them as my own. Thank you for your time. Semper Fi! I currently work from home so my time is very flexible to have more time with your fur baby! I have extra hands to help in being a rover team member to help with the sweet fur babies out there. I have a lot of yard space even though it’s not fenced , there’s a lot of outside to explore. I have 2 fur baby’s to keep company also. A sr dog and a new adopted pup!
“She did a wonderful job with Ruby. She was very kind and passionate towards Ruby our family. Our dog really enjoyed spending time with her. Will definitely rebook her and recommend her to anyone. She will take good care of her little one”
“This is the first time I've used Roover and I'm very pleased I did. Sarah is caring, sweet and very trustworthy person. When you meet Sarah you can really see her love for animals. She gave my cat love and care as if he was her own. I loved the way she kept me informed with pictures and text while I was on vacation. I can't thank her enough. I highly recommend her without reservation and can't wait to use her again.”
“She took wonderful care of my cat and provided great daily updates. My cat is normally skittish around strangers, but she liked Sherry and came out for pets and attention on every visit! Will definitely book with Sherry again, highly recommend!”
“Heather was amazing! She was very communicative and friendly from the very first message we exchanged. She provided tons of pictures and kept us thoroughly updated with what our babies were up to while we were away. I will definitely book Heather again the next time we have to be away from home.”
“Ms. Peggy was so reliable and relieved my stress when it came to leaving my cat home alone for the first time! She was easy to contact and did everything she was asked. Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Will definitely be using her again!”
“Scarlett was amazing with our dogs! She always went above and beyond! We actually could relax on our vacation knowing she was watching our fur babies. She was always on time and her report cards were thorough, always letting us know what was going on. We would definitely have her watch our dogs again, she has been the best dog sitter we have ever had!”
“Great job with interacting with my Mia. Joshua was easy to contact, professional and accommodating with my requests. I will definitely use Joshua again. Thank you for your services.”
About: Hello! My name is Jeremiah, I started this because I absolutely adore pets - being a pet owner myself I believe it is imperative that pets receive the care that they deserve!! 🙂 Im currently free to work at my selected hours within any time window (afternoons and evenings 1pm -10pm) as long as nothing urgent requires my attention. Pets in my home experience the upmost love❤️ and careful🙌🏽 treatment. For me the most important thing is patience whether that’s when taking a dog for a walk or making sure they are fed properly☝🏽. That is my standard for my pets and others’! 🙂
“Ms. Amanda was a sigh of relief for us when going on vacation after a recent move away from our trusted sitter of 10 years. Even though our Bklu Boy wanted to be a little temperamental she was patient and calm with him. Thanks Rover for the amazing connection with her and allowing us to truly relax on vacation.”
“Kayla communicated thoroughly and provided excellent care to my two senior dogs. She rolled with the punches when there were accidents and kept me informed. We will definitely be booking with Kayla again in the future.”
“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.”

Raven was truly a life saver. I made a last minute request and surprisingly she was available. She followed all care instructions with ease. Loch even loved her. She took some of the most precious pictures of my baby which brightened my day every day. I actually think Loch misses her. I will definitely book her again❤️

The average cost for Pet Sitting in McDonough on Rover is $21.09 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

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.
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.
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
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
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.
