“Thank you for taking care of my over grown puppy. Greatly appreciated. Looking at your schedule. Amazing young lady. Very kind, gentle, respectful and amazing with my GSD who needs lots of attention.”
“Camila did such a great job, I will definitely be a repeat client. She was my my puppy all day at my home, and she kept me well informed with plenty off updates, pictures, and videos.”
“Stephanie was a life saver. I had a short notice booking. She was able to fit in a meet and greet, which was very important because we have a high anxiety dog. She was sweet and calm with my dogs, and also playful for my high energy dog. And our high anxiety dog started to warm up to her after a day or so: She left our home clean and orderly. Would definitely recommend!”
“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!”
“Rachel is absolutely amazing and made it so easy for me to leave for a week and not have to worry about my cat one time. She cared for him and my apartment so well! It was such an easy process and she communicated everything beforehand, so I did not even have to worry when the time came to leave my cat. I definitely recommend booking with her she is incredible!!”
“Jayne was absolutely amazing! She watched our two girls at our house for 4 days. She kept me in the loop, called me every day, sent me pictures throughout each day and even gave the girls a bath! She walked them, played with them, practiced their tricks, and definitely cuddled them! I will absolutely use her service again. I recommend her 100% and i’m a tough judge! Thanks again Jayne!”
“Paola is amazing!!! She’s highly responsive and dependable. She took excellent care of my senior pup and home while I was away for a few days. I received plenty of updates and pictures. I’ll definitely be a repeat customer!”
“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.”
“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!”
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.
About: I get down on the ground with them and meet them where they are. And talk to them. Quality time is paramount with your pets I am retired. Only commitment is tennis. I play on teams but away from house 2 hours 5x a week. I have flexibility and time I have a fenced yard. Silver Comet trail is behind my house for walking. If I come to you, I will walk your dog/dogs. I will play with dogs/cats and love on them
“Jasmine was incredible! Kept me well informed about what was going on with Baxter. Spent lots of time outside with him. I could tell he had a great time with Jasmine! Will definitely use Jasmine again in the future to house & dog sit.”
“Sha’Pri was an amazing pet sitter and I would 100% have her watch my Yorkie again. She had great communication and sent updates every morning and evening. She did a great job handling my 15 yo dog’s slightly complicated medication and food routine. When we got them, the house was spotless, the sheets were washed, and dog TV was on!”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Smyrna is €50
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Smyrna
Maura was wonderful! She stopped by our apartment a few weeks before we left to meet our kitty, and she sent us several videos throughout our trip so we always knew how things were going. She even brought in a package for us, which was very nice. We would absolutely recommend her for all your pet sitting needs!
Bethany was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of our boy and kept us updated with pictures and videos throughout his stay. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands! We highly recommend Bethany and would absolutely book with her again in the future!
Rachel is absolutely amazing and made it so easy for me to leave for a week and not have to worry about my cat one time. She cared for him and my apartment so well! It was such an easy process and she communicated everything beforehand, so I did not even have to worry when the time came to leave my cat. I definitely recommend booking with her she is incredible!!
Macey did an overnight with my four dogs and did a fantastic job. She was on time, great communication, followed the home/dog rules and most important she was great with the dogs themselves. Spent hours playing fetch with them. I came home to happy healthy babies!
Lauren was very communicative with my Maltipoo, Blaise. I requested she stay in my home because Blaise has high anxiety levels when boarded. Blaise immediately took to Lauren from the initial meeting. She allowed him to cuddle with her and followed the directive’s I left. If she had to run out, she didn’t leave him unattended for more than three hours at a time. She even took Blaise out for walks. She was very respectful of my home and left it in neat condition and emptied any trash she had accumulated. I definitely will continue to request her because Blaise was very happy with Lauren. Thank you so much Lauren!
Ariana was incredible! Very professional and punctual, she immediately bonded with our giant puppy, cat, and guinea pigs. She was attentive and communicative during the weekend, providing many updates and pictures. And she left no trace that she had been in our home when she left. We simply cannot recommend her any more highly! 10/10, no notes!
Stephanie was great with my two dogs! She communicated clearly and I never once had to worry that they were in goods while I was away. I have a high strung working line GSD who insist on lots of play and Stephanie picked up on all her games to keep her entertained inside while it’s too hot outside. Already have another stay planned!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Smyrna is $50 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $87 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 4,549 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 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 Smyrna. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 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.
