About: I have been raised around dogs, rabbits, cats, farm animals, you name it I have done it my entire life through. I do not offer dog training but I have worked to train all of our personal dogs, including one retired service dog. My expertise is definitely in dogs and rabbits, however my love for animals is endless and as long as you tell me what they need I can help them! I can also groom your animals in home if you would like but at an additional charge incase your animals get stressed going to the groomers. I can work with all sizes, all ages, from bottle fed to senior, trust me I have seen them all. I'm currently in college for Equine Animal Science, my first degree to becoming a veterinarian specializing in horses. I live with my parents as it's online college, however they're not helping me in any way and I do not offer in-home services since it's their home. Online college makes it much easier for me to flexible and able to help you and your furbabies since I can set it aside and worry about your animals at any given point in time, no meetings, no hold on. I have the ability to set it down immediately at the drop of a hat for them, and I do so constantly with my own animals. I am more than willing to stay with them for a few hours if you don't want them to be alone, stay the night with them, let them out to go potty and play with them for a bit, take them for walks, help you teach a puppy to go potty outside, and if you have dogs that get stressed at the groomers then I would be happy to try and groom them at home where they feel safer! Really anything you could possibly ask me to do for your pet I would probably do. I love the special ones, even the ones that you have to "sprinkle spices" on their food. My heart is endless for them and I promise to love and protect them like my own.
About: My first dog was a senior rescue terrified of humans and dogs, and my current dog is a hyper mega-loving Coonhound! You can say I've had very different experiences lol! I've had experience administering medication for my own dogs as well as others. I was able to crate train my then 9 year old dog! My 2 year old dog is responding well to training, and has never met a soul she didn't love. I'm a freelance photographer so my schedule is very flexible! I work from home mostly, but I also rent a studio in Savannah- so sometimes I'll pop in for a shoot! My projects usually vary from 1-3 gigs a month. Happy to give lots of cuddles and attention! My own dog whines when she's not given love 😂 I can also crate when needed or we can work together with my laptop! I love walks and we can play fetch in the backyard if needed! Also happy to do any basic chores needed like emptying your dishwasher or vacuuming!
About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals my entire life, so caring for them feels completely natural to me. From energetic puppies to sleepy senior dogs, I have experience handling dogs at every stage of life. I’m patient, attentive, and well adapted to managing everything from playtime and walks to administering medication or cleaning up little accidents. I genuinely love animals and all unique personalities and needs for all types of dogs. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness will always be my top priority. Available for full-time and part-time care all days of the week. Please reach out for any needed details! I will be more than happy to assist you in any way. I will accommodate all schedules, personalities, and special needs to ensure a trustworthy, safe environment. From administering medications, to walking only in certain areas, to feeding certain foods, I will keep to that so your little one’s feels comfortable.
About: I have a Frenchie. I have six years of experience with the world’s most neediest pups. I am more than equipped to take care of your fur baby. I am currently active duty military stationed at Moody Air Force Base. Here for anywho wants to leave town for the weekend and not have to worry about their fur babies . I feed my babies natural food, walk them daily, give them overwhelming love, make sure they are comfortable in my home and make sure they are content overall.
“Lauren was the best sitter we have ever experienced! One of our dogs is a special needs rescue and is incredibly shy and scared of everything. Lauren was so patient with her and was able to break through the initial barrier. Happy doesn't even describe how we feel about it. Lauren has got a gift, y'all! It was SUCH a relief to know that all four of our fur babes were well cared for and very comfortable while we were gone for an entire week. Lauren provided us with a regular stream of texts, pictures and videos that clearly showed how comfortable our pets were with her. Not only that, we came home to a tidy house! Book her now, she is worth every penny! 🐾”


About: Hi! I'm Haley, and I've been caring for animals for over 11 years. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly enjoy getting to know each pet's unique personality. I have experience caring for puppies, adult dogs, senior dogs, cats, rabbits, fish, amphibians, reptiles, and even exotic pets such as tarantulas and scorpions. I'm comfortable following detailed care instructions, administering routine care, maintaining feeding schedules, cleaning habitats, and making sure every pet feels safe and comfortable while you're away. Whether your pet is energetic and loves playtime or prefers quiet companionship and cuddles, I'm happy to meet them where they're most comfortable. I know every animal is different, and I take the time to earn their trust with patience and positive interactions. Friends and family often tell me their pets warm up to me quickly, and I've had dogs become attached to me after only a couple of visits. I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you can trust. I'll care for your pets as if they were my own, keeping you updated with photos, messages, and plenty of reassurance while you're away. I can't wait to meet you and your furry (or scaly!) family members! Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine, so fitting your pet into my schedule comes easily! I have open availability and can accommodate a variety of schedules, whether your pet needs early morning walks, midday check-ins, evening visits, or overnight care. I care for my own pet every day, including maintaining feeding schedules, cleaning habitats, and monitoring their health and behavior. For example, my pet scorpion is fed twice a week, and I mist his enclosure twice daily to maintain proper humidity. Caring for animals has become second nature to me, and I understand the importance of consistency and attention to detail. Whether your pet has a strict routine or just needs extra love and companionship while you're away, I'm committed to providing reliable, attentive care that keeps them happy, comfortable, and safe. I believe the best pet care starts with respecting each pet's individual routine. Every animal is different, so I make it a priority to follow your feeding schedule, exercise routine, medication instructions, and any house rules exactly as you've outlined. My goal is to keep your pet's day as familiar and stress-free as possible while you're away. When caring for pets in your home, I'll treat both your pet and your home with the same respect I would my own. I'll provide plenty of love, attention, playtime, walks, enrichment, and potty breaks while also keeping food and water fresh and cleaning up after your pet. I'll send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. If I'm caring for a pet in my own home (when applicable), I'll provide a safe, clean, and calm environment where they can feel comfortable. I'll continue to follow their normal routine and make sure they receive the same level of care, affection, and supervision they would receive at home. My priority is always making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away.
“Chaya did an absolutely amazing job with Shadow! We were nervous leaving him for the first time but Chaya put us at ease with updates and pictures! She not only did an amazing job caring for Shadow but did amazing keeping our house clean as well. We will definitely book Chaya again!”

“Makayla has been nothing but amazing and couldn’t ask for a better sitter for a girls. She has spent so much time with them and when she hasn’t been able to be at the house with them, her amazing sister would go over and spend time with our girls. I never had to worry about whether my dogs were being looked after and well loved just like I would. Even our girl who is skiddish of all strangers, she made sure to take the time with her and make sure she was comfortable. And to top it all off, she cleaned up before leaving. I would recommend Makayla and her sister Shelby again and again and will definitely be asking for their pet sitting expertise in the future!”

About: I have been around or taking care of dogs since I was about six years old. I grew up around dogs of all shapes and sizes. My first dream job was to be a veterinarian because of my love for animals, but dogs more than anything else. I love dogs, and I understand that dogs have their own personalities their own emotions their own likes their own dislikes and different ways to be cared for just like humans do.i treat dogs with respect and I treat dogs with love. I never call dogs “ it” I call them by their name and gender like they should be addressed. I’ve also volunteered more than once at K9 battle buddies. I know how to adapt to different dogs with different demeanors. I am a military veteran with more time on my hands than I used to have so why not spend this time taking care of walking, watching and playing with animals that I love If a dog is in my home, I will take care of them as if this dog is mine as if I brought this dog into my family. I will treat the dog love I will protect him or her as if they are my own. If I’m in the home of the owner, I’ll respect the dogs home as if I’m babysitting a child. I will respect the home of the owner as well.
“Jasmin was great! She is very responsible and took great care of my dogs. She also sent us pictures and kept us updated every day. I would definitely recommend her and I plan to use her again!”

About: Growing up I balanced taking care of two childhood dogs. I’ve had dogs since I was 11 years old. Currently, I have a two year old golden doodle with my wife. I am an avid runner and will run your dogs however far and long you desire! I can make a custom workout portfolio for your dog. I work full time in the Army during the week. I am available both Saturdays and Sundays, unless I am field training. I can work some federal holidays I have off. I have a friendly golden doodle that loves company. I take her to the dog park and on walks multiple times a week to stay active.
About: I have been caring for animals both my personal animals and other peoples pets for a long time now. I have a dog of my own named Brutus that lives back home and he’s my whole world. Im accustomed to walking dogs, transporting dogs and making sure they are safe not only inside but out in the world too through my experiences with Brutus. I also participated in the raising and care of the family dogs growing up. I have personal experience with puppy care, wound care, giving medication and just loving and treating pets like they are a part of the family both with Brutus and the family dogs. I will be able to care for them both morning and evening as well as on lunch break to provide proper toileting to your animals as well as making sure they are properly fed and watered. I will be able to provide them with play time and snuggle time when I am off work and during the day on lunch break. I get an hour and half lunch break every week day. I will have to care for the pets in your home. I will not be able to care for them in my place of living.

“Brooke was great to work with. She sent tons of pictures and kept us updated the whole time. My pups are spoiled so I appreciate all the extra attention she gave them. We will definitely use her again in the future.”


About: For over 40 years I have loved and cared for my dogs and the dogs of family and friends. I see them as a part of the family. I would provide care, attention, play, treats (if allowed), and medication (if needed). My home has a fenced yard, pet beds, and toys. We live near a city park that circles a lake and near a dog park. I am happy to accommodate any special needs, diets, and/or instructions. I know the stress of finding the right pet sitter. Since I know how it is to leave my dogs home, I am happy to provide frequent updates while you are away. Your pets will be happy when you return, but they will also thank you for leaving them in my care.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 375 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Riceboro. 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 Riceboro 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 Riceboro 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 Riceboro 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.

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.
