“Abigail did a fantastic job watching our critters! She was great about sending pics of Oban and Mabel, and she kept our house looking nice and clean. We would definitely have her house sit again and recommend her!”
“Chris took great care of our two dogs and our house while we were away for about a week. He took the time to get to know our dogs and even got them a special treat! We would be happy to book with him 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: With over 20 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, I am passionate about providing the best care for your furry family members. Whether it's daily walks or playtime I offer personalized attention to meet your pet's unique needs. I am able to work full time towards pet care so my schedule can be very flexible. I can do any day of the week. I care for the pets by giving them a lot of attention whether that’s petting or playing with toys or running around in the yard.
“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!”
“Laura was phenomenal. It was a last minute booking and she went out of her way to make our life easy while I’m out of town and my husband having a changing work schedule. She was an extra hand that adapted to changes quickly which we both appreciated.”
About: Furbabies have been my best friends since childhood! From sitting for friends to taking care of my own, dogs and cats have always held a special place in my heart. I have house/pet sat for family and friends as well as worked at a dog daycare, so I am familiar with a variety of dog types and the care these animals need to be at their happiest! I’m currently working a very flexible part-time job, so I am able to spend plenty of time with all your furbabies! I am usually available anytime on Friday-Sundays and after 5pm on weekdays! I am always happy to pet sit and house sit overnight if needed! And am able to provide any and all kinds of walking/playing time. From being the personal driver to the park or just walking around your neighborhood, I will always bring forward a caring environment for your pet.
“Michelle takes good care of my sweet babies every time. Our sweet Belle loves her and she doesn’t just take to anyone. It says a lot that Belle wants to spend time with Michelle. She truly loves all the babies and their antics”
“Edi was so wonderful, she took amazing care of our three pets, was communicative, brought in mail and watered plants. She took such good care of our animals, I would have her back anytime.”
About: I used to work at vets office a year ago. I took care of dogs, cats, bunnies… etc. I bathed them, cuddled them and, cared for them! I am currently out of school for summer and I am working part time. I will have plenty of time to play with your animals! I always make sure to greet my dogs when I come in and I always use a leash on walks for their safety. I make sure they have plenty of water and food before I leave to go anywhere.
About: I have 3 dogs of my own that I take care of on a daily basis ranging from 2 months old to 2 years old. I have an American Eskimo, Border Collie/Shih Tzu Mix, and Miniature Goldendoodle. I love playing with my dogs as well as taking them on walks throughout the neighborhood! I currently work in office and am available to drop by twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening. I am typically at home enjoying my evening if I’m not at work! I can take your dog(s) on walks and/or dog parks. I can visit often to let them out to play in the backyard and to feed him/her.
About: Ever since I was a little girl I have always loved animals. I have always had a family pet and I currently have a sweet puppy of my own, his name is Ollie. In high school I volunteered at local animal shelters and started dog/ farm sitting for friends and family. It is one of my lifetime dreams to open up a doggy cafe and maybe even a doggy day camp. So if you ever need anyone to dog sit, walk your pups, or even just hang out with them for a little while… I am super flexible and more than willing!! I have a very flexible and remote job, so I can always find time to escape to go play with some pups! I’m available more often than not for dog/housesitting, walks, and check ins throughout the week!! My biggest concern is that your fur baby is happy and healthy. Every family is different and every dog may require different needs, I understand that and know that all too well. I am pretty flexible and up for anything to ensure your pup is living their best life. I am a big fan of communication so I will always ask questions if any situation arises. And I will keep you updated with tons of cute photos of your sweet babies.
“Lillie did a wonderful job caring for our dog. She kept us informed on how he was doing and their activities together. She also kept our house as clean as we left it! We will definitely ask her to care for our precious Cheo again!”
About: I have been working with animals since I was 18 years old. I have several years of work experience with pet care, including veterinary medicine, boarding & daycare, and even pet grooming (baths, nails, ears, anal glands). I am very comfortable with cats and dogs of any size and temperament. I will even show special love and care to senior pets! I am more than happy to offer services throughout the week as well as the weekend. I am available as early as 6 am and can adjust how late I stay based on what you’re needing. I can care for your pets in the exact way you’re wanting. If they need more activity, I’m happy to offer playtime. If they are more low energy and like to lay around, I’d show them special love and attention in a relaxed manner such as cuddle time.
About: I have been around animals my whole life and I love them! I have a 4 year old kitty named Bunny and she is everything to me. My best friend has a mini Australian shepherd that is very friendly and I love being around him. I also have watched my brother and sister in law’s dogs for 2 years now. They ranged from having 4-8 dogs at different points and I would love to go stay with them, feed them, and get to play with their fluffy selves! I am working limited hours at this time, so I am available weekdays 8 a.m.- 2 p.m. and 5:45 p.m.- 9 p.m., and also weekends any time! I will monitor the animals needs and be there in any way I am needed. I will take them outside as much as directed, feed them, make sure they have water, and love on them!
“Words do not express how grateful I am for Temi. I was a first time Rover user, for an overnight stay for 5 days. I have two dogs that vary in temperament. We originally were simply going to board our dogs at a local pet “hotel”. These plans fell through, and we decided to give Rover a try. From the moment Temi decided to accept our overnight booking, she was VERY professional and personable. She asked all the right questions to understand how to best support our two fur babies while we were out of town. Her communication is TOP NOTCH, and she continued to update us via the APP. It felt good to get pictures and videos, which confirmed our first babies were happy and well cared for. Temi is amazing because she immediately caught on to helping our younger fur baby with improving her leash manners. In today’s society it’s not always you find someone who goes above and beyond. Temi did, and I am so appreciative that she accepted our booking. She will now be our go to for any out of town visits. Thank you 🙏🏾 so much Temi!!!”
“Savannah is an absolute gem! She recently took care of our 3 pups and our home while we spent a week at the beach, and she went above and beyond! She made sure we were updated on how the pups were doing and actively looked for ways to help us around our home to make our return so much easier. Our pups were so happy when we came home, we could tell they received so much TLC. Highly recommend!”
About: Dogs aren’t just my passion—they’ve been my way of life for as long as I can remember. Having raised and cared for breeds of all shapes and sizes, from tiny lap dogs to gentle giants, I understand that every pup has a unique personality and pace. As an active foster parent, I specialize in creating a calm, supportive, and safe environment tailored to your dog's exact needs. Whether your pup thrives on high-energy hikes, loves exploring neighborhood trails, or prefers gentle neighborhood strolls, I make sure every outing is safe, engaging, and thoroughly exhausting in the best way possible. When your dog stays with me, they get the full royal treatment. My home features a spacious, fully fenced yard for safe daily zoomies, alongside a comfortable, loving indoor setup where they can stretch out and relax like family. I’m currently building my full-time career around doing what I love most: providing top-tier care, safety, and endless belly rubs so you can have complete peace of mind while you're away. i do currently work part time monday-friday so i am available for dog walks after 1pm and i am open friday after 1pm- sunday evening for any stay the nights i do have a fully fenced back yard, tons of room for fur babies to run. 3 fur babies of our own along with a senior cat. i have 2 senior fur babies along with a 4 year old that is great with both seniors and puppies.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Statham is $60 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $38 and $80 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 1,267 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Statham. 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 Statham 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 Statham 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 Statham 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 Statham. 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.
