About: I have spent my life around cats and dogs, and currently have a 5 year old dog of my own. My family also fosters and homes dogs to this day so the love for animals runs deep! I am familiar with training of animals, walking them, caring for medical needs, and providing all the pets they want and need! I have a lot of free time outside of my full time job and would love to spend it around animals. My schedule is flexible and always changing so I can accept a wide range of pet sitting/walking/feeding. I care for my dog in a very loving manner, he is pet constantly, taken on a generous amount of walks, and steals a lot of my attention for throwing his ball.

“Rebekah is awesome! She was able to take care of my cat with such a short notice. When I came back home Mags was happy! I enjoy all the photos she sends and see how loving and caring she is with my cat. I have used Rebekah twice now and will continue to ask her to take care of Mags when I need it. Thank you so much!”

About: I am a German Shepherd breeder, and have raised, trained and cared for dogs my entire life. I am able to keep your pet with my friendly play groups, or provide independent time. I am home almost every day for 90% of the day, so I'm always here to tend to the dogs and provide round the clock care for my own and my clients dogs. I have a fenced yard for dogs who get along with my other dogs, they can join our pre existing play groups. Independent walks and play can also be provided for the dogs less keen on making friends. I can do drop ins for any pets, furry, feathered or otherwise, but I am only able to board dogs 20+lbs at my home.

About: *I do require a 1-2 week advance notice and always want our dogs to meet prior to booking a boarding service* I’ve taken care of a variety of animals and creatures since I was 6 years old. My family, friends and coworkers have relied on me to care and love for their animals (birds, cats, dogs etc.). I have a set schedule of Monday to Friday 8:30am-5pm with an hour lunch. During my lunch I will go home to relieve my dog I will go outside with my dog in the fenced park of my neighborhood. If I am caring for your animals at your residence I will make sure the yard is fenced and gates are closed, if there is no enclosed yard I will take them on several walks!

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I started helping my mom at a humane society when I was around 13, where we fostered kittens until they were ready to be adopted. That’s where I really learned patience and how to care for animals with different needs and personalities. I’ve grown up with pets my whole life-dogs, cats, and reptiles, so I’m very comfortable with everyday care like feeding, routines, and paying attention to behavior. I also currently work in animal care and as a photographer at Wag Atl (Doggy daycare. It’s given me a lot of hands-on experience and made me really confident handling our fluffy friends. I know every pet is different, so I try to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. I'm very passionate about animals, I just love dogs and take their care very seriously so I would love to sit with your pets! I currently do work full time with a doggy daycare; my off days are Tuesday/Wednesday. But I am available every day of the week, as long as you are comfortable with an 8-hour workday in between care. I can stay with your fluffy friends through the night, no problem! And of course provide walks/potty breaks/playtime! When caring for my your pets I keep it similar to how i treat my own animals unless called for otherwise. I regularly take them out on walks and potty breaks, play time is a must and I like to keep a strict eye on the pet to make sure they're safe and sound at all times. I will always keep in contact with you and give regular updates in pictures of how your pet is doing.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Smiths Station

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Smiths Station is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $24 per visit. 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 October 2026, there are 631 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Smiths Station. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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 .

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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Smiths Station. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.

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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
