“I would recommend 1000 times ! She payed attention to my pup and gave her lots of cuddles and play time. She was very responsive and sent pics ! Will be using her in the future !!!”
“Lauren was SO AMAZING! Not only did she petsit for my senior dog Howard but she house sat as well. She communicated daily with photos of Howard! She also cleaned up the house before she left! I cannot wait to book her again and Howard was not depressed when I got home. Usually he is depressed and takes 1-3 days to be his happy usual self, not the case with Lauren. I would highly recommend her as a house and pet sitter!”
“Lauren was absolutely amazing!! I had to find a sitter last minute, and I loved her bio the moment I read it. She responded quickly to my request and made sure to nail out the details for my dog’s stay. I could tell she’s experienced and loves animals, and so could my dog! She sent regular updates and pictures, and when I saw my dog frolicking in her backyard and snuggled up later on in the evening like he forgot I had dropped him off was all I needed to set my mind at ease haha! Lauren is a fantastic sitter and I will absolutely be booking her again. Thank you so much!!”
“Chelsey was absolutely incredible! We were away on an international trip for over 10 days and she was the most perfect house & pet sitter for our sweet, old senior pup. I tend to have anxiety when we travel and Chelsey made sure to send me updates and multiple photos every day to help ease my mind that all was well back home. She showed such love and care for our pup Donut, and our home! She even went above and beyond when, due to flight delays and issues on our return trip home, we needed to have a friend stay unexpectedly for an additional night by washing our guest room linens and towels to make sure our friend had what they needed when she left. We will 100% be booking with Chelsey again and I can't recommend her enough for anyone who needs pet-sitting support! <3”
“It was an easy adjustment to leave my dogs at home with Katelyn while she stayed at our house. She cleaned up after herself and I was happy to receive all the updates while we were away. I’ve already rebooked her!”
“Jamie was terrific before, during and after the process - he stayed overnight with our two dogs for 7 nights. They were clearly taken care of and I’m sure had a great time with Jamie. We met Jamie before we left and felt very comfortable with him, his demeanor, and how he interacted with our dogs. I’m really glad we went with Jamie and we’ll absolutely contact him again next time we head outta town!”
“Once again Sasha went above and beyond to watch our Doodle. This is the 5th time she has sat for us and there is never a worry. Sasha stays in contact, sends pictures and even offered to pickup supplies for our new fur baby we picked up while we were gone. So awesome to be at ease when we are away.”
About: Hi! I'm Mariangely, and I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your dog. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I take the time to learn each dog's routine, personality, and needs so they receive the same care they're used to at home. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply relaxing, I'll make sure they get plenty of attention and affection. You'll never have to wonder how your dog is doing I love sending photo and video updates so you can enjoy your time away with complete peace of mind. I treat every dog with patience, kindness, and respect, and I'll always follow your care instructions closely. I can't wait to meet you and give your furry family member the love and care they deserve! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. Whether it’s morning walks, afternoon playtime, or evening cuddles, I make sure they get the care and companionship they need throughout the day. I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine and keep their schedule as familiar as possible while they’re with me. I understand that every pet has a unique routine and personality. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, walking routines, and any special requests. I'll send regular photo and video updates so you can feel confident your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable, loved, and stress-free while you're away. I also speak Spanish, so I’m happy to communicate with pet parents in either English or Spanish!
About: I have been caring for dogs since childhood. I ran a neighborhood dog-sitting business that cared for over 4 dogs a week. I currently love my family dogs: the feisty corgi and the loving german shepherd. I have been relied on to feed, groom, walk, and care for pets for years. I am a recent medical school graduate who has been taking care of healthcare patients and dogs for several years. I have been trusted with pets, children, and adults for years, but animals have a special place in my heart. My first dog lived for over 12 years, so I do have experience with older dogs as well. I am currently working as a dog-sitter full-time. I am free to take your doggies anywhere you would like in the area. I currently live next to a dog-friendly park and am also free to take your dog even for just a few hours. Whenever you need me, I am there! Caring for your pets at your home is fully up to your discretion. I have offered this at my previous dog-sitting business and it worked amazingly. I can come in to check on your doggie at any time or stay in house. I am very flexible and a great listener to instructions.
“She did such a great job staying with our two old lady dachshunds! Gave us the peace of mind we needed while we are away, with lots of photo updates, responsive, on time, and took great care of them and our home. Will definitely be having her come stay with the girls again!”
“As Alia was a perfect overnight dog sitter. Our pups loved her and felt safe with her care. She went above and beyond with feeding, playtime, and keeping them happy while we were away for a two week trip. Even when a medical emergency arose, she acted quickly and was able to get our dog care without hesitation. I would recommend her to anyone. She’s one of the best sitters we’ve had!”
“Our pups were well taken care of! Great communication and made sure the dogs were loved on. We had no doubts or worries that our dogs were in good hands while we were away. would definitely recommend!”
“Rosalind took care of my dog while I was out of town. She kept me updated on how he was doing and made sure he had all his medication. He seemed happy and well cared for when I got home.”
“Khadijah was absolutely phenomenal! Leaving you pet with someone new can rattle the nerves but I felt so comfortable with Khadijah watching my pup. She provided great updates and wonderful pictures. She also responded at any point I messaged her promptly. I’d highly recommend Khadijah for your pet services.”
“Susan always takes such great care of our boy when she stays. She stays over at our house - since he doesn’t like a change of scenery, and he is always at ease. She keeps the place spotless and I know I can trust her with our dog and our house.”
About: I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely care for animals. I make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. My attention to detail ensures that feeding schedules, walks, and playtime are always consistent. Pets respond well to my calm and caring nature, making it easy for them to trust me and quickly feel at ease. I’m currently working full time however I’m available most evenings and weekends. Please contact me for more specifics. Thank you for your interest and time. I care for pets by making sure they are healthy, happy, and loved. I feed them nutritious food, give them clean water, and ensure they have a cozy place to rest. I spend time playing with them every day and take them for walks or provide toys to keep them active. plenty of affection help them feel secure and cared for.
“Lydia did a great job taking care of my senior pup, who due to his age, has more needs now. She kept me updated on how he was doing, and even tidied up my place. I would definitely use Lydia again to care for my pup.”
“So grateful for Sha’Pri and the excellent care she took of Ari & Boss in our home! She had such calm energy and patience, the dogs were instantly at ease with her. She was understanding of their needs and went the extra mile to meet them where they are: a slow moving senior gal and a terrified-of-fireworks guy (on 4th of July). Her care gave us all peace of mind. We would happily book Sha’Pri again!”

Highly recommend, Jen. This was our first time using her for housesitting. She was very thorough with the instructions we left and we got several updates throughout the weekend. Our dog and 3 cats seemed to warm up to her quickly! We will definitely be using her again :)
Bethany took great care of our pups and home! She was very communicative, sent regular updates/photos and treated our home like it was her own. Our one pup Shiya is older, has some health issues and extra needs. Bethany was so kind, attentive and patient with her. We would highly recommend her!
Alexi is simply the best! My dogs and I adore her! ☺️ She takes such great care of them, and I always love the pictures she sends. Her communication is also top-tier! This particular stay, I needed help with a package that was supposed to arrive before I left but got super delayed. It needed to be opened right away. Even though it wasn’t dog related, her eagerness to help me in a bind was truly appreciated! I couldn’t recommend her enough! ☺️

Megan did an excellent job taking care of my two girls! She made them feel comfortable and relaxed while I was away, which gave me real peace of mind. They clearly enjoyed her company and didn’t get anxious, and I came home to two happy dogs. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Megan again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, dependable dog sitter. Thank you, Megan!

Liza did an amazing job with our boys Kobe and Buster. She house sat for us for 10 days while we were out of the country and we couldn't have been happier. Our boys are very needy and have quite a few quirks about them and she managed everything with ease. She was a great communicator, left the home in immaculate condition and was great to the boys. On the last night Kobe had what seemed to be an allergic reaction so she took immediate action, Facetimed us and ended up taking him to the vet. It ended up being a non-issue, but her diligence and decision-making skills were impressive. We would absolutely use Liza again!
Megan was excellent in house sitting our two 9 month old kittens. She was very attentive to their needs and went out of her way to take care of them like her own. She was also super communicative and made sure to clarify things with us. She even sent their pics to us on a daily basis. The kittens seem healthy, happy and well taken care. Will definitely be rebooking Megan for future house sitting.
Caroline was exceptional. She communicated to ensure she understood all details of our trip and our dog’s needs. They were well cared for. We never had a concern. It was so nice not having to worry while we were away. If we ever need dog care again, she would be our choice.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Smyrna on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 4,707 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Smyrna. 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 Smyrna 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 Smyrna 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 Smyrna 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Smyrna. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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.
