“What a great experience we just had!! McKenzie was amazing the whole way through with our fur baby. She updated us, asked questions, and spent lots of time with her. Will definitely book again!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover for forever and have always lived with dogs or cats! I have a dog of my own who I adopted, and I’ve also fostered through Renegade Paws Rescue and volunteered for day walks at the Humane Society of Savannah. I love getting outside for walks, spending time with animals, and getting to know their personalities. I’m excited to meet your pets and make sure they feel happy, comfortable, and loved while you’re away! 🐾 I am currently looking for a job, so I am available any time! I can dog walk, pet sit and do check ins any time. I love animals so I would take amazing care of them. I love to cuddle and give pets yummy treats! I also love walking and running, so I would love to take your pet on a fun adventure!
“Absolutely amazing. She took care of our dogs and the house extremely well. Our boys were so happy with her and she sent so many pictures!!! Love the amount of communication she provides. Amazing sitter!”
“Isabella was wonderful with our pup. She was also very flexible as we booked last minute for a dog free night on our vacation. Would book again if we were to need sitting in Savannah.”
“Ryan took wonderful care of my dog, Wally, while I was away for 12 days. Ryan stayed in my home and cared for Wally there. Ryan is responsible, caring, communicative, and very conscientious. I especially appreciated the pictures and videos he regularly sent. My home was spotless when I returned, and Wally clearly adored all the walks and attention he got. It gave me real peace of mind knowing Wally was in such good hands. I’d gladly have Ryan sit for Wally again and highly recommend him to others.”
“I'm so grateful Jade was able to look after my elderly rescues while I went on a work trip. She was dealing with two anxious doggies and one anxious mama. She did a great job of keeping in touch, administering meds, and entertaining them! Thank you, Jade!”
“Sara does a tremendous job dog watching! She routinely goes above and beyond. She was instrumental on helping my dog with a little accident. She made me feel safe and responsive.”
About: I am comfortable with dogs of all breeds and am the mom to a very energetic and sweet pit bull. I understand how stressful it can be to leave your pets during getaways, so I will communicate as much as you like and make sure your fur baby is treated with the utmost care and love. I work a standard 8–5 schedule, but I’m excited to care for your pet during evenings or weekends! I’m based in Savannah and happy to travel to surrounding areas to provide excellent care. I will follow all instructions to ensure your pet has the best possible experience in my care. I will treat them as I would my own dog and take every necessary precaution to keep them safe.
“Sara took great care of our girls. She made sure they got all their meds, plenty of outdoor time, while also dealing with some tummy upset. Our house and girls were clean, happy, and rested on our return.”
“I highly recommend Katie as a pet sitter! She stayed at our house overnight and helped our elderly pups and cats feel comfortable during our trip. We came home to a clean house and some happy animals. Priceless! She never failed to update us on how everyone was doing and sent lots of pics! We definitely will be booking her again!!!”
About: I’ve been taking care of my black lab at home for a couple of years now at home so I know how a lab can be;) I love to go on walks as well! I’m currently at student at SCAD so i’m just looking for some part-time walks on weekends to walk some dogs!! I do weekends plus weekdays but it depends on what time because i do have classes during week days. Friday is off though! I take care of the pet I am sitting by making sure they’re comfortable with my presence, have enough water while i’m there, food, etc. I never want a dog to feel uncomfortable while i’m sitting/ walking.
About: I have been training dogs for over two years working at doggy daycares. I have babysat dogs from a few months old to double digit seniors. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I love being active and spending time outdoors. I enjoy starting my day with some fresh air and movement, and I’d be happy to make walks, playtime, and quality time with your pets a regular part of my day. I’m flexible with my schedule and can work around your pet’s individual routine, whether they need a morning walk, a midday break, or some extra attention throughout the day. I care for every pet with patience, attention, and lots of love. I make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and getting the exercise and attention they need, while following their normal routines as closely as possible. I’m attentive to their individual personalities and needs, whether that means a long walk, playtime, cuddles, fresh water, feeding, or simply keeping them company. Most importantly, I want every pet to feel happy, cared for, and comfortable while their owner is away.
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and currently have a 3-year-old Border Collie, so high-energy dogs are very much my thing. We hike every day, and I’m comfortable keeping up with dogs who need real exercise and stimulation—not just a quick lap around the block. My schedule is very flexible outside of work, so pet care fits easily into my routine. I’m typically off one weekend day and one weekday, and I’m usually finished with work by 5 PM. I also have very few competing commitments, so I’m able to be flexible and dependable with the dogs in my care. I hike with my own dog every day, so getting outside and keeping dogs active is already a regular part of my life. I’m happy to build walks, hikes, drop-ins, or other care around each dog’s routine and needs. I keep things simple and follow each dog’s normal routine as closely as possible. I’m comfortable with everything from walks and daily hikes to feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and downtime. When caring for a dog in their home, I follow your instructions and their established routine rather than disrupting it. I’m respectful of your space, attentive to your dog, and consistent about keeping them exercised, comfortable, and safe while you’re away. For active dogs, getting outside is a big part of my routine—I hike with my own dog every day, so I’m especially comfortable with dogs who need a ton of exercise and stimulation.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. My last rescue pup recently passed away and I miss having dogs around. I know how stressful it can be to find someone you can trust to watch your babies and I hope to be that person! I also know the challenge of having dogs that don’t like other pets and how hard it is to find care for them. Your baby will be the only pet in the home. I work from home and make my schedule so I can be flexible with potty breaks throughout the day. I can also work from your home for a portion of the day if needed. I am comfortable giving medication, going on walks and playing of course! I like to stick to your routine as much as possible to keep your pet comfortable.
“This is my second time employing Sydney for cat/house sitting and I can’t say enough good things about her! She is loving towards pets (even one like mine who hides all the time) and a super dependable and uber thoughtful house-sitter. There’s no one I trust more with my home and kitty Shilah 😸.”
About: I have experience with all kinds of pets including small dogs, giant dogs, cats, and reptiles and I love them all. I have also been a babysitter for many years, which has given me lots of experience working in other residencies! I am mostly free during the weekday evenings especially for extended visits. I am also available on weekends to do stop by visits and walks! I care for pets by giving them love, energy, and any necessities they need. Whether you have a ball of energy, or a couch potato (like my own) I will meet them where they are and give them some extra love when you are unable to.
“Savannah was amazing. She kept me in loop and stayed connected with me when I was gone. She didn't hesitate asking questions when she wasn't sure about something, instead of assuming what to do and I like that. My pups were happy and were well taken care of by her”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Savannah is $50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Savannah
Thank you Kaitlyn for taking care of our dog Ollie and our cat Archer and our home while we were traveling. Kaitlyn sent lots of pictures, took Ollie for walks, and left our house in good condition. We appreciated having such a responsible and caring sitter take care of our babies.
Dora and Jason looked so cute and happy in the updates he sent me! Flash forward to tonight after a long work day and he had already taken her out for her last long walk, gotten her dinner and medicine squared away, and even left my porch light on which just made coming home feel so welcoming. He followed my directions, I felt instantly comfortable with him, and I just feel so good about having left Dora in his care all weekend. He was also super responsive. Thank you again!
Emily is the best! We left for 10 days and she stayed at our place with our 2 pittie girls, Betty & White. They loved her. Every morning afternoon and evening we received our "pupdates" on their walks, feeding and activities. She walked them every morning and evening, made sure they had lots of cuddles and even swept the floors and washed the bedding without being asked. I would trust her 100% with future trips.
Caitlin was fantastic! She cared for our four dogs in our home and was completely trustworthy and communicative throughout the entire stay. She gave extra care and attention to our senior dog who needed special medical/daily support, which gave us total peace of mind. We are so grateful to have found her and highly recommend her!
Indy's parents loved Arden and told me that everything was perfect with Indy and Arden both evenings. Thank you Arden, for taking care of that boy who hates to be left alone!! I know he loved the time spent with you!! My brother and sister-in-law thank you as well. I will reach out in the future as needed.
Wesley was fantastic! My sweet boy is blind and diabetic with a long list of medications and needs. Wesley was kind and patient with exceptional attention to detail managing his needs. Anxious about leaving him in anyone’s care I was reassured at every step by photos and updates throughout the stay and it was clear that my boy was receiving so much love! Wesley is a treasure!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Savannah is $50 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 and $72 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 609 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Savannah. 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 Savannah 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 Savannah 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 Savannah 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 Savannah. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% 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.
