“Michelle was amazing! Let me start by saying, this is my first experience with Rover and with hiring a dog sitter in general so I was extremely nervous! Our dog sitter ended up getting sick while we were on our trip and I needed someone in a hurry. I was looking through the Rover app after midnight trying to find someone local, and I came across Michelle and someone else's profile. Michelle didn't have any reviews at all, so that made me a bit weary but after looking at her profile I thought she seemed sweet and I needed someone ASAP, so I decided to contact her. She responded in less than 15min saying she was available for that night. Great! Then in the morning around 9am the person who was supposed to come at lunchtime to feed my doggies and take them out had a family emergency they had to tend to so they would not be available, so I reached out to Michelle hoping she would be available for a drop in (mind you it was only a few hours notice) and she was quick to respond and tell me it was no problem. I was very grateful, though still nervous because I wasn't sure how my doggies would react to her, especially being my oldest is usually very grumpy and barks at EVERYONE and takes a while to warm up to anyone. I looked on the camera when she arrived and was so surprised to see that my oldest dog was not barking and he warmed up to Michelle immediately! That alone was enough to let me know I made the right choice!! She was extremely sweet with my pups, she was in contact with me throughout every visit, and very thorough in asking questions and making sure she followed every instruction I gave her. She sent me pictures and videos and I could tell my dogs absolutely love her!! I'm so so grateful to have found Michelle, it is obvious she truly loves and cares for your fur babies! I will definitely use her any time we travel or need a quick drop in visit for our doggies. If you're looking for someone you can trust, who your fur babies will love and feel safe with, reach out to Michelle!!! 🫶”
“Zulema house sat our two pups and she was great. She sent photo updates and was so pleasant and communicative. She asked questions if needed and followed their normal routine. And the dogs like her too! We're so glad to have found her!”
“Kaitlyn created the perfect environment in our home for our pups to feel safe and happy! It makes going away stress free. We look forward to having her care for our dogs again soon.”
“Edi was AMAZING! I cannot express enough. What a wonderful job Eeedi did for us while we’re away. Our animals are our children and words cannot express enough, how important it is for me to have a sitter that provides outstanding care. Edi did exactly what we asked her to do and even more. Arriving before our departure to make sure the handoff went well. Stayed until we got home to make sure the handoff and her departure went smoothly. Great communication during our away time. It is so nice to be able to get away and not worry about your fur babies. In addition to our two dogs, she also provided care for our two cats. My Cats are pretty finicky and required time to trust but within a day they were out greeting her which speaks volumes!!!! Such a wonderful experience, and after a long road of finding the perfect Sitter… We have met a great match Thank you, Edi- a pet owner knows by the behavior of their animals when they arrive home how well they were treated. My pups and kittens were very calm and happy when we returned which is concrete evidence, they were treated well while we were away! Our family has found a blessing to our family!!!”
About: I have a strong affection for dogs and am very attentive to their needs. I am young and enjoy playing with them in a spacious yard and taking them for walks around the neighborhood. I treat every dog as if it were my own, providing them with love and care. My schedule is pretty much free for walks, visits to the dog park and time to play. Looking forward to possibly taking care of your furry friend I have a strong affection for dogs and am very attentive to their needs. I am young and enjoy playing with them in a spacious yard and taking them for walks around the neighborhood. I treat every dog as if it were my own, providing them with love and care.
About: I love dogs and cats too, I got into dog - sitting when I first moved to Georgia and my neighbor went out of town I watched her dog while she was gone and have been dog sitting ever since. I love going out and walking dogs and playing with dogs. I make sure they feel like they are loved and with their owners when I watch animals I love making them even little treats and dinners. Also if you have specific thing your animal eats then you can count on me to make sure they have a good healthy meal, I also am good about giving them their medication. I understand how people love for their animals as if they were their children and I totally get it. You worry about them and want to make sure they are taken care of well. I myself even hate the thought of my animal being alone for over a long period of time because of work or school.
“Liberty has stayed with our kitties several times now and she is always consistent! Our kitties know and love her now and my husband and I have such peace of mind whenever she’s with them! She is very communicative and we know they are being taken care of! Highly recommend!”
“Jade is fantastic! She took care of my lovely dog Maple for 4 days of Labor Day. She sent me photos of my baby everyday and checked in with me often. I will definitely be hiring Jade again!”
About: I grew up with many pets, and I've had a love for animals from the start. I have been walking dogs/pet sitting for over 10 years now. I have also worked at a doggy daycare and a pet salon, bathing dogs. I've cared for all kinds of dogs: old and young, big and small, energetic and mellow, and I love them all. I'm excited to meet your precious pups! I'm currently working part-time as a pet transport driver, so I have lots of free time right now to care for your pets! When I'm not on the road I am available any day of the week. I cannot currently watch pets at my house but I would be more than happy to come over and watch them at theirs where they would be most comfortable.
“Destini was amazing!! She was very kind and communicative while staying with our pups. She even handled our dog’s epilepsy episode and medications like a champ. Will definitely be using her again!”
About: Hi, I’m Sara! 👋 Dogs have been my passion for over 12 years, and caring for them is one of my favorite things to do. Whether your pup is an energetic adventurer, a couch cuddle expert, or a senior who just wants a slow stroll and some extra love, I’ll treat them like they’re part of my own family. I owner-trained my own service dog, which taught me how to truly understand canine body language, behavior, and communication. I’m always paying attention to the little things—whether a dog is feeling playful, nervous, overstimulated, or just needs a little extra patience. I have extensive experience with bully breeds, am comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and have experience safely managing crate-and-rotate households. I’m also confident administering medications and caring for senior dogs and pets with special needs. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away and for you to have complete peace of mind. Expect plenty of photo updates, belly rubs (if they’re into that!), playtime, enrichment, and lots of one-on-one attention. I know how much trust it takes to leave your best friend with someone else, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family! I do this full time since I was laid off last year. I have very open availability and time to dedicate to your fur babies! I make sure each client leaves detailed instructions for food, medication and any vet care needed. I’m ocd about having all the info I need to make your pet as comfortable as possible while you’re out of town.
“Cindy was absolutely fantastic! From the moment we met her, we knew our dog was in great hands. She was caring, reliable, and kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay, which gave us complete peace of mind. It was obvious that she genuinely loves animals, and our dog came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We will definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional pet sitter! We will call her again definitely..!!!! Thank you again and again. 🙏🏼”
About: A lifelong love of animals has led to me learning how best to care for them from a young age. I'll make sure your pets feel happy, comfortable and safe! I have experience with dogs, cats, horses, chickens, turkeys, and guinea pigs, and I'm willing to work with all animals except arachnids and insects. I wake up at around 8 every day and go to bed around 11, and I can adjust pretty easily if I need to be up earlier or later. I can mold my schedule to another routine very easily (and enjoy doing so!) and working with animals fills me with so much joy that doing the best job possible is barely a job at all. I'll meet your pet where they're at. If they don't want to be sociable, that's fine! I'll make sure they're fed and have water and they can come to me in their own time. If they want to be attached to the hip from moment one, I love that too.
About: I have 10 years of hands on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I provide safe walks, feeding, playtime, and basic grooming. I’m patient with puppies and gentle with senior dogs. I pay close attention to behavior, routines, and safety so your pet feels comfortable and cared for like family. I have a flexible daily routine and plan my day around pet care. I’m available mornings, afternoons, and evenings for walks, feeding, and checkins. I keep a consistent routine so pets feel comfortable and secure. I can also adjust my schedule for special needs, longer stays, or last minute bookings. Safety is my top priority. I keep a clean, calm environment and always supervise pets. I follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, and any medications. I’m attentive to behavior and signs of stress. I can crate if needed and make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure at all times.
“Always love using Emily to watch our pup. She is amazing with communication and we can tell she truly loves pet sitting! We have started booking trips around her availability so we can keep getting the best service.”
“The first I noticed about Grace is that she notes of everything we said. She is responsible, caring and warm, and is diligent in sending updates (which is something we asked for). The extra touch was coming home to a hand written card and a frame with a paw print and nose print. I highly recommend booking with her, she she is available.”

The average cost of House Sitting in Sells is $56 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $84 per night.

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 Sells 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 Sells 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 Sells 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 Sells. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
