“Regan is amazing! Our meet and greet went great but during the visit my dog was nervous, barking and keeping his distance. Regan took the time to make him feel comfortable and now he loves when Regan visits! I appreciate Regan so much. I'll definitely be booking again.”
“Amanda was an excellent sitter for my cat! She sent daily photo updates which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear she genuinely cared for my cat and treated her with so much kindness. I would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and reliable sitter.”
“Leah was wonderful. Mia looks so happy in her pictures. Very reliable and always on time. Great communication Thanks for a great experience will definitely use her again whenever we need.”
“Charis dropped in to see our 5 cats each day over a 4 day weekend. She is so easy to work with and wonderfully detailed regarding her visits! We have her coming back next weekend, and I know the cats will be well taken care of. 😊”
“I can't recommend Taylor enough! She took incredible care of my 15-year-old cat, Ashes, who is currently in hospice care. Taylor was very easy to get in touch with, followed all my instructions perfectly, and was a joy to communicate with. She truly went above and beyond to make sure Ashes was well cared for. I received reports and pictures of Ashes after every visit. Her kindness and dedication gave me so much peace of mind during my trip. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter!”
“I have never felt more comfortable leaving my dogs! She was an angel. I have big dogs that tend to bark quite a lot and she immediately was able to calm them down and bond with them. Sent numerous photos throughout the entire time we were away and gave plenty of updates. I would not go to anybody else!!”
About: I grew up working on Cheryl's farm. Savethehorses. Helped look after all kinds of animals including over 15 dogs. There was never a dull moment being surrounded by all types of animals in my care. I currently own 3 dogs now but have owned up to 5 dogs at one time and cats in the past. I have raised a couple dog liters as well as one cat liter. All found amazing homes and I have been able to stay connected to watch them grow and thrive. I have training in animal behavior as it is important to know what to look for when caring after someone else's animal, even your own. Things can happen fast and you have to be able to know what to do next. I have raised three male dogs in my house hold and as you probably can guess, things can get overwhelming but it's important to know what to do if an animal makes a quick decision that can change the situation very quickly. Each animal has their own specific needs and I will be sure to follow what is needed for your fur babies to thrive while you are away or working in within your home. Whether it is my animal I'm caring for or someone else's, I take it very seriously to ensure the proper care is given. I have a senior dog at home as well, she is 13yrs old with cancer and a deteriorating spinal cord disease who gets supplements every morning amongst other medications. She is my couch potato but my absolute world, she is fragile and living out the last years of her life being the wonderful potato she is. I have experience in birthing two dog liters and 1 cat liter. Experienced in what is needed before and after birth. Extra care if needed. I have worked along the side of a professional dog trainer as well as helped run a boarding and training facility up to 30 dogs, being one out of two kennel techs. I work at a vet hospital in ellijay, ga for dogs and cats of all sizes and breeds currently. I am looking to help others out who need the extra hand in caring for their fur babies. If your working from home or away or just simply need the extra hand. I've got you! Sometimes it takes a village and it's important to know you can trust someone to take care of your fur babies no matter the size or fluff. It's important to take your pups for a walk or utilize the pets favorite way to get all that energy out could be throwing a ball or Sometimes even going for a run if you have any that are like my huskies and cattle dogs, that energy never dies.
“Stevie was great with my pets and administered medications provided when needed for my senior. I would give 5 stars but unfortunately people who were not verified through the rover app were brought onto my property by the sitter during the job and I was not notified. Only reason I knew was due to property camera footage. Dog care was overall great.”
“Shelby met with us before we hired her and was good with our dogs in person. She did mid-day breaks two days in a row while we were unable to be at home. She navigated two energetic youngsters and a senior pup. Will use again.”
About: I want to take care of peoples pets like they are my own. I’ve had my own pets (cat and dog) my whole life. I also take care of dogs and cats for other people all the time.

I will make sure to follow all the clients rules and watch them like the pets are my own. I will always make sure to leave everything clean and treat the houses like my own.
“Immediately upon meeting Avary, all 4 of our dogs were completely comfortable with her which speaks volumes. She was flexible and followed all directions for our pups. When she had a question, she asked instead of guessing. Avary gave our dogs love and checked in regularly. I was so nervous leaving them in the care of someone new but Avary did not disappoint. She showed that the wellbeing of our dogs were her top priority.”
About: I have taken care of all kinds of dogs, cats, and other pets for friends, family, and neighbors since I was 13. I have experience in young pets and senior pet. I’m am currently going to school part-time so I’ll have plenty of time to take care of your fur babies. Every new semester my schedule changes but working around my classes shouldn’t be a problem.

“Drew was true in every sense of our agreement. He was punctual and thorough. Our little kitty Fiona was in great shape when we arrived home. Drew has a very positive approach to animal care. I'd hire him back in a minute. Marc D. Ball Ground”
About: Let me come take care of your fur babies! I provide excellent, individually catered care for each pet and I have the extra experience being a registered veterinarian technician! Does your pet need special care? No problem at all! I can cater to any need; whether that be a playful puppy that needs to go on a long run to get some energy out or an older senior pet that needs daily medications and extra cuddle time. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, horses, goats, chickens, a variety of reptiles, birds, fish, turtles, and other farm and exotic pets! Just let me know the details and I would be happy to care for them too! A little about me: Besides being an overall animal lover, I graduated in June 2019 with my Associates Degree in Veterinarian Nursing. I have a horse named Reno; who is a 23 yr old quarter paint! I adore him with all my heart and soul. I used to ride in local rodeos until I retired Reno at the age of 16. Now, he resides in Milton, Ga. and is taken care of daily at a boarding facility where I see him a couple times a week. I enjoy working out, running, drawing and reading! If I'm not at the barn or at work, you can usually find me out in advance tires with my daughter, or with my husband taking our dog Silo for a walk. I work at a local animal hospital and have several years experience with companion pets and even some exotics! I aspire to become a anesthesiologist in small animal veterinarian medicine! I have a flexible schedule and would be happy to discuss arrangements for your pet from time sensitive medication dosing, morning walks and multiple feeding schedules. No two pets are alike! That's why I take extra care and time to go over your pets individual needs. I have a degree in animal medicine so I am proficient in animal care, emergency critical care and overall animal health and well being.
About: I have always had a strong love for animals. I own animals of my own, and they are like children to me. I love meeting new animals and getting to know them. I am a very active person and playful. I have so much love to give out to all animals! I have had a lot of experience taking care of furry friends. I am a student in college, but I'm looking for easy ways to earn money. I thought I would put myself put there for others to know that I am here to help with animals, so I could have a fun, easy, and flexible job to help me make a better living for myself to get through school. I also have been volunteering at Pickens Animal Shelter for awhile now, so I have met numerous different types of furry friends. I am very patient and have experience with frighened, nervous, and even agressive animals that just need more compassion. I also have experience with taking care of livestock, including llamas! Unfortunately, I'm not able to have fun with furry friends 24/7, but I am still flexible and usually don't have issues working out schedules that are needed. For overnight booking, I definitely prepare to be there majority of the time. I love my let's very much and they are a good mix between inside and outside dogs. I pretty much give them free will to pick. They always sleep with me at night. I have lots of land to play on. In a client's home, I will follow any instructions or rules they ask. Otherwise, I try and do what is best for the pets and make them comfortable and I have no problem cuddling and sleeping with them too!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 1,985 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Nelson. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Nelson. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
