“Kaitlyn did an amazing job taking care of our cat, dog, and bunny! She gave us such a peace of mind while we were on our trip! She texted detailed reports, pics, and updates! We will definitely be using her in the future! I can tell she truly cares for our animals and is knowledgeable when it comes to animal care!”
“Nora did an amazing job with both of my cats while we were out of town!! She made sure that they had everything they needed and always sent pictures and updates about her trip! So grateful to have someone I can trust with my kitties.”
“Thanks for watching Keni! This was my first time using this app or any service like this. Marcus is a cool relatable guy. Very attentive to my pet’s needs. My dog actually at her food and was in good spirits upon my return. Great job, man! Will definitely book again.”
“Mindy was awesome! I could tell from our meet and greet that she is very knowledgeable about dogs and their behavior. She arrived promptly and was a great communicator. We received lots of pics of our fur babies during our time away. Will definitely use her again!”

About: Hi, I'm Bryan! I’m a caring, responsible, and dependable pet lover who understands that your pets are family. I’ll love your furry pals like I do my own. I currently have two black cats. I did have 2 dogs for the last 7 years or so, but they stayed with their mom when we amicably split. I miss them more than anything, and I'd love to share the love I have for them with some new friends. My older dog required daily oral medication and sometimes topical so I'm comfortable administering medication that way. I'm very good at making dogs feel at ease even in stressful moments. I've also handled dog and food aggressive dogs without incident. Currently have wide open availability. I basically need about an hour notice just so I can make sure the house is comfortable for my pets while I'm gone. Each animal has their own distinct needs and personalities, I can be whatever they need. That could be super long walks, or yard play time, if they need medications I feel comfortable giving them whatever they need. My own dog has a couple of daily medications she takes
“Buckley put our mind at ease! She was attentive, responsive, and very detailed in their daily habits, attitudes and appetites. You can tell she really loves what she does! Highly recommend. Will definitely use her again.”
“Kayla was on-time for every drop in visit. She was responsive, dependable, and sent a cute picture of my dogs after every visit. She followed all instructions with administering medications and feeding as well. My dogs loved her - and especially the extra belly rubs! Great job!”
“Stacey was very communicative, responsive, and professional. She was okay with my dog's quirks and took care of them as instructed. She was even flexible with some changes I had to make to the booking. Will definitely use her again!”
“She was amazing with lady, literally took my anxiety away! My dog is hard to get close to people because she is scared, but Chelsey had everything under control. So helpful to have her come to the house and help around with some cleaning as well 🙏🏼 really appreciate it . Definitely recommend her a 100%”
“Randall was professional and responsive from the moment we got in touch with her. She was so amazing with our dog and sent photos along the way. We would recommend Randall to anyone that needs pet sitting. So thankful to have someone taking care of and loving on our dog while we were away!”
About: Hello! My name is Chioma Okafor but you can call me Ash! I love caring for dogs and cats! I’ve been volunteering at animal shelter since I was 17 years old in Virginia and moved to a different shelter in Georgia. I made sure all the dogs and cats have been fed, socialized and cared for! I mostly care for cats more than dogs since I’m a cat person but I’ll gladly take care of dogs if needed. I highly prefer caring for small dogs. I’ve also started fostering 2 months ago and fostered 2 cats so far I attend college and have college work to focus on but I’ll be available to take care of your pets any day of the week! Thanks for understanding! I live in an apartment and we have a caged dog in our household but I will be able to take care of your pets in a nice and safe room!
“Tamera was great!! I love her willingness to be flexible during unexpected scheduling changes. She’s very great at communicating and sending cute pictures. Would love to have her care for my fur baby any time.”
“This was our first time using a dog sitter for our 2 dogs, and we were a little nervous because our small dog can be spicy, but Maddy was great with them! We loved getting the updates, and it looks like the pups were happy for Maddy to drop in. Will definitely be booking with her again!”
About: Hi! My name is Steffinie, and caring for animals has always been one of the greatest joys in my life. I recently lost my fur baby after 12 years together, and find being around other pets has provided a great deal of comfort. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pup in someone else's care, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. My goal is to make your best friend feel as loved, comfortable, and cared for as they do at home. Every dog has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I’ll make sure to take the time to learn what makes each one feel safe and happy. If you’d like to schedule a Meet and Greet, please reach out. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend! I'm currently home full time and live in a cozy, quiet apartment with no children or other pets, allowing me to provide your pup with plenty of one-on-one attention. I’ll be sure to carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, potty routines, and any special requests you have. You can expect regular photo and video updates so you'll always know your pup is happy, comfortable, and well cared for.
About: What sets me apart is that I treat every pet like family. As a dog mom myself, I understand how important it is to provide patience, love, attention, playtime, and a safe environment while you’re away. I work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet sitting. I’m able to work pet care into my week while still providing reliable, attentive, and loving care. My approach is to make every pet feel loved, comfortable, and right at home. I take the time to learn their personality, routine, and favorite things, while giving them plenty of cuddles, playtime, walks, fresh food and water, and lots of attention. I want every pet to feel safe, happy, and cared for just like they would be with family.
“Alicia was so helpful with our dogs and cats, both when we were working and needed drop-ins and while we were away. She left thorough info for us on each of her visits and gave us peace of mind while we were gone. Thank you so much!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Smyrna
Kylah is such a good sitter! Definitely the best we’ve had on rover. We always make sure to book her as soon as we know we’ll need a sitter. We trust her completely and always feel good about leaving town knowing that Kylah will be watching after our fur babies.
Ella was amazing! We were leaving for Europe for two weeks and needed a last minute pet sitter for our golden retriever and cat! She took our dog out three times a day and fed both once a day for two weeks while we are gone. We returned to them both very happy and healthy! She was great to work with and even sent pictures of our sweet pets. Thank you so much!
Marcus was the dream pet sitter! He has such a calming presence that our cats really took to. He took care of our cats per instructions and even went above and beyond (taking trash out, refilling food storage containers) that we will definitely be booking him again. Even with an address mix-up on my part, Marcus was so accommodating and patient!
Thank you for caring for my many pets this weekend..she did such a great job..feeding coaxing them out of hiding places 😅cleaning up after feeding and monitoring/cleaning litter robot.. the cats seemed to like her and I appreciate all the daily pictures of their wellness..for once I vacationed knowing they were on good hands instead of just a neighbor stopping by...thank you..hope to work with you again 🙂
Kaitlyn was amazing. I have heard of the Rover company but never needed outside help. The pre-meeting with Kaitlyn set my mind at ease. She made me feel so comfortable with the process. I knew my dogs would be in good hands. I came home to two happy girls and a house well cared for! I appreciate everything she did for the dogs and for me.
Jennifer stepped in to help us out last minute when our sitter backed out for a health emergency. She was so kind, enthusiastic, and sweet to our younger cat. We felt confident with her care even with it being so last minute. She spent such great quality time w Penny during the check in, provided great updates, so much play time and attention!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Smyrna is $21 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $31 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 7,255 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Smyrna. 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 Smyrna. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
