“We had the pleasure of having Serenidy take care of our dog, Buster, in our home. She was awesome! She took excellent care of Buster, following all our instructions for him. She was great about staying in touch with us throughout our time away and sent lots of photos of Buster to us. She took excellent care of our home during her stay and made sure we came home to a clean house. We highly recommend Serenidy and look forward to her staying with Buster again in the future!”
“Nora was fantastic with our Great Dane puppy, Apollo! She was very responsive, kept us up to date every day, and had no issues administering Apollo's pills 2x/day. She also left the house just as we left it and washed the sheets before she left. This was mine and my husband's first weekend away in a long time where we didn't feel stressed leaving our dog with a sitter. We would definitely recommend Nora to anyone looking for a stress free getaway and plan to use her services again!”
“Shannon was amazing! She took great care for our two dogs, and sent pictures daily of them playing and hanging out. She went out of her way to get them a stuffed pumpkin when they tore up their other stuffed animal. I totally recommend her and completely trust her.”
“Tori took excellent care of our puppy and our home while we were out of town. She sent us numerous photos and updates and followed his schedule exactly. We would highly recommend Tori!”
About: I grew up on a farm until I was 10. We had family pets and when I was 9 when got my first personal pet, my bunny. His name was Homer. At 10 I got my first personal dog, his name was Woodchuck. He was a shepherd. Our family pets were Yorkies. Later in life I had 3 other rabbits and then many dogs of my own through my adulthood. I had big and small dogs. There was a fun kitty in there too. I remember each and every one of them.I miss them all. I went through several kinds of training when I had an American Staffy left in my yard. We both learned a lot. Jasper was his name and he was my heart for 15 years. Frankly, he still is. I have a lot of experience with all kinds of dogs. I was a cosmetologist for 34 years. However, I’m unable to do this anymore. I’ve been our house manager,A.K.A domestic goddess, now. I’m home most of the time. My husband and I have 3 senior dogs of our own. I’m at their beck and call. I figured I could do the same for others. I take the pups on daily walks for exercise and to check the doggie social media. We have a nice fenced in yard. Which is escape proof, as far as I know. Large privacy fence and reinforced at the bottom. We also have a doggie door. No worries, I’ll go with your pups outside to supervise. Our dogs sleep where ever they like. They also lounge where ever they like. With that said there is structure. If I’m talking care of your babies, I’ll follow your rules. Teach me your training so I can keep things consistent. If you need any tricks and tips, I’m glad to help. If I’m at your home, I’ll do my best to leave it better than before I arrive. I will be the primary caregiver. However, my husband is home in the evening and on weekends, so there will be extra attention then. At your home, it will just be me, but I’ve have a lot of love to give.
“Faith stayed with our animals for a whole week while we were away. While they don’t have a lot of special care needs, they are pretty anxious babies. Having Faith in our home and sending us regular updates made us feel better and we knew they were in good hands. She communicated regularly and asked questions when needed. We came home to happy healthy animals and a clean house! I’d recommend Faith to anyone for pet care :)”
About: What sets me apart is that I truly care about getting to know each pet as an individual. I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. every animal has their own personality, routine, and little quirks, and I want them to feel comfortable, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m dependable, attentive, and happy to give your pets the extra attention they deserve. Whether it’s a walk, a drop-in visit, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own. I also love keeping pet parents updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind. My goal is simple: for your pets to have a fun, comfortable experience and for you to feel completely confident knowing they’re being cared for. 🐾❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I’m dependable, organized, and enjoy making time to give pets the attention and care they need. I’m happy to work walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, and cuddles into my schedule while following each pet’s usual routine as closely as possible. I plan ahead so I can be consistent and present during each visit, rather than rushing through care. I also make time to send pet parents updates and photos, helping you feel connected and reassured while you’re away. I like to think of pet sitting as stepping into a pet’s world without disrupting it. I pay attention to the small details—their favorite spot to nap, the sound they make when they want attention, the toys they ignore, and the routines that help them feel at ease. My goal is to make your absence feel as uneventful as possible for them. During each visit, I’ll follow your instructions carefully while adding plenty of patience, playtime, affection, walks, meals, fresh water, litter box care, and whatever else your pet needs. I won’t treat the visit like a quick checklist; I’ll take the time to notice how your pet is doing and respond to their personality and mood. I’ll also leave your home even better than I found it and keep you updated with thoughtful messages and photos—not just proof that I stopped by, but little glimpses of how your pet is spending their day.
“It was a pleasure to work with Judith. Communicated very well. Will certainly employ again. That she brings the skills and experience of working in the veterinary field was a big comfort.”
About: Hi my name is Chyna. I have six years of pet care experience, and I know how much it matters to feel comfortable with the person caring for your pet. My goal is to help your dog feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether we’re taking a walk or spending time together during a drop-in, I’ll follow your care instructions, respect your home, and keep you updated with photos and messages. I’d love to learn about your dog’s personality, favorite activities, and daily routine! I work during the day and attend school, so I arrange pet care around those commitments. I’m primarily offering walks and drop-in visits during my available afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I’m also open to occasional overnight stays with advance planning. Before accepting a booking, I’ll confirm the care times you need and how long your pet would be alone so we can make sure it’s a good fit. For the past six years, I’ve cared for my parents’ animals when they’re out of town and watched many of my friends’ dogs, too. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone, and I want you to feel comfortable knowing they’re getting care and attention while you’re away. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, take time to learn their personality, and send photos and updates so you don’t have to wonder how they’re doing. I’m excited to meet some new furry friends through walks, drop-ins, and occasional overnight stays!
“Mai and Jonathan are wonderful dog sitters - going above and beyond to care for our two dogs. They took excellent care of our home and communicated with pictures and videos throughout their sit. Since they both work from home, they were with the dogs far more often than other sitters, and we are so appreciative of their kindness and enthusiasm with our babies. Highly recommend!”
About: I have always loved and cared for dogs. I welcome the opportunity to help in whatever capacity is needed. I can walk, play with, feed and give your pup the amount of love and attention they deserve and more. You will have nothing to worry about if you reach out to me. I am trustworthy and honest and have nothing but your dogs best interest at heart. I am in Acworth and closer to both Kennesaw and Woodstock. I am currently looking to take Rover work as it arises with no other job to interfere so that I can give my full attention to caring for your pet. I am currently able to make dog walking visits at your home and can take boarding in my home if I am free. Anything your pet needs, I will do my best to accommodate.
“Caylen did a great job taking care of Kanye while we were away. She was responsive, kept us updated, followed his feeding and medication routine, and most importantly, we came home to a happy and well cared for dog. We really appreciated having someone dependable looking after him while we were traveling. Thank you again!!”
“Dawn is wonderful. She is very attentive to our family of pets and took great care of them. It was so nice to come back from vacation and see our happy dogs in their own house. Thank you Dawn.”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was about nine or 10 years old, less in the caregiver since until I was an adult, I now have two dogs and love them dearly. I also enjoy working for Wag!, which I have worked for almost 10 years on and off with a perfect five star rating in many many great reviews. my daily routine includes taking care of a my older dogs, and my cat. I include them in all my plans to make sure they are always taken care of. I always consider them as an extension of the family and their needs are always my priority. I tried to tackle things head on and make sure that their needs are met before my own.
About: Hello! I’ve been pet sitting for 9 years. Allow me to help your days run smoothly by walking your fur baby while you are away at work or travel. I currently work part-time, allowing for plenty of play and walk time for your precious pet. I’m available every day, and after 3:30p on Tuesdays. Depending on your pet’s specific needs, I offer drop-ins or overnights in client’s homes. I prefer to do a meet and greet before we set up a walk, drop-in visit or overnight.
About: I have grown up with dogs so I’m used to all kinds of dogs. From puppies to seniors. I also used to volunteer at animal shelters. I’m currently working part time and do most of college online. So I have plenty of time for your pets! I also have a very flexible schedule. I’m committed to providing quality care in the environment your pet is used too. My goal is make your pet feel well taken care of.
“We could not be happier with the care our pets received! Taking care of four animals is no small task, and she handled everything with so much love, responsibility, and attention to detail. From the moment we met her, we felt completely at ease—and that peace of mind continued the entire time we were away. She made sure every pet was comfortable, well cared for, and loved, treating them as if they were her own. Communication was excellent, updates were reassuring, and it was clear she truly understands animals and their individual needs. Coming home to happy, calm pets says everything. We are beyond grateful and would 100% trust her again without hesitation. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and exceptional pet sitter!”
“Jackie was awesome! It was our first time using Rover and we will definitely be using her again. Our dogs are exhausted from all the love and fun she gave them while we were gone. She even made sure the house was just as we left it and started some laundry for us! Thanks for taking good care of our boys.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - North Metro
Nora did an outstanding job caring for Kirra this weekend. Kirra clearly enjoyed her time with Nora and was happy, relaxed, and content. She especially loved the constant ball playing and the one-on-one attention Nora provided. Nora was professional, attentive, and very communicative throughout the stay, which gave us great peace of mind. It was clear that Kirra was well cared for and received plenty of exercise, engagement, and affection. I would not hesitate to use Nora again and fully intend to do so in the future. Highly recommended!
Shannon was a phenomenal person to house sit for our dogs. She went over and above our expectations. Our dogs took to her immediately and I think she really spoiled them. I highly recommend her services to anyone wanting a caring, loving person to care for your house and pets
Faith is our go-to house sitter when we have a long vacation and want our babies to be well loved and cared for. She sends pics and updates daily, and leaves the house in great shape. She is communicative and personable, and we know our pets are in safe hands with her!

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 North Metro 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 North Metro 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 North Metro 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in North Metro. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
