“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!”
“Brittany was very responsive to all of my communication before and during her stay at our house. She was very attentive to our dog and was very tidy with our house. We appreciate her care of our pup!”
“Mia was amazing. Her communication was so consistent that I always knew what was going on with our pup and she even sent pictures. It was so nice k owing she was taken care of by a caring person!”
“Nicholas was great with our fur babies! Our golden retriever we recently adopted is a handful and he went above and beyond taking care of him. I wouldn't hesitate to book him again for pet sitting.”
“Hannah is amazing! She is very communicative and put all of our crew at easy. She sends plenty of updates and pictures of our doofuses chilling and playing and even some funny face candids. Would 100% recommend for dogs AND cats...because we have plenty of both and she takes good care of them.”
About: I’ve had a dog my whole life from babies to full grown adults! We play, go on walks and hikes. Also always room for cuddles! I work from home most of the time, unless I am out on an appointment. My dog is usually roaming free and when I’m away, he is in the kennel. I live in an apartment home that has a dog park and a park less than two minutes away from me for a bigger and better environment to play.
“Kyle is amazing! Our girls loved him immediately on our meet & greet visit. We had questions, however, Kyle came with a lot more. Very prepared and considered so many things regarding taking care of the girls and our home for almost a week. Great communication, pics daily and took fantastic care of our home as well. Can’t wait til he can take care of them again!! Thank you Kyle 😊”
About: I’ve owned a dog and two cats, so caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I have hands-on experience with feeding routines, walks, litter care, playtime, and paying close attention to behavior and overall health. I’ve also pet-sat for friends, making sure their pets stay comfortable, safe, and on their normal routines while they’re away. In addition, I volunteered at a humane society where I walked dogs, fed and cleaned for both dogs and cats, and helped socialize them through play and interaction. I’m naturally patient, attentive, and calm, and I truly enjoy being around animals. I treat every pet with the same level of care and love I’d expect for my own. I work full time but I am available on weekends and from 1-5 during the weekdays. This allows me to be available if the parents of the pet need to be out of town for a weekend. I do drop ins, dog walking, and house sitting in your home so your pet can stay comfortable in their own space. I try to keep everything as normal as possible for them, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, litter box cleaning, playtime, or just keeping them company. I’m really patient and calm and I pay attention to little behavior changes. I know every pet is different, some are super playful and some need space, and I’m good at adjusting to that. I’m also very respectful of your home and I keep things clean and organized. I like sending updates and pictures too so you don’t have to worry while you’re away. I just genuinely enjoy being around animals and making sure they feel safe and cared for.
About: I grew up with a Doberman (Raven) and a Shih-Tzu (Salem) who I loved dearly. Now, I have a cat named Harvest who I adopted in early 2025. I volunteer with Lifeline’s “Dog for the Day” program periodically where I take a dog from the shelter to Piedmont Park for 3-4 hours. Joy, the white dog in one of my cover photos, was my first dog for the day. I am available Mon until 3pm and all day Fri for drop-in visits and dog walking. I can also house sit Fri-Sun, beginning Fri evening and leaving Sun evening. I live in a quiet one-bedroom apartment with my cat, Harvest. I'm often reading or sitting out on my balcony enjoying the peace.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life, including German Shepherds, Chihuahuas, and Shih Tzus. I currently have a Chihuahua of my own, so I understand how much our pets mean to us. I’m comfortable with both large and small dogs and love getting to know each dog’s unique personality. I’m patient, gentle, attentive, and will treat your dog like family while they’re in my care. I have a flexible schedule and can work pet care into my daily routine. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting, and I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I’m happy to communicate about your pet’s specific routine and needs. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I follow your instructions closely, keep pets safe and supervised, and make sure they have everything they need. I’m dependable, gentle, and attentive to each pet’s individual personality and routine.
“Joanna always does an amazing job! She is very good at keeping you updated and following all pet care directions. Somehow I also always come back to my home cleaner than I left it too. My cats genuinely seem comfy with her and I would 100% recommend her.”
About: Hey there I’m Ben, an Atlanta native and animal lover for life! I’ve been a pet sitter for 5 years to families all around the city. Photography’s been a hobby of mine for twice as long, and I wouldn’t mind giving your furry friends a photoshoot as well. Student by day, pet sitter by night (and mornings too.) Despite my studies, I’m available all days of the week, especially during typical feeding times. When pet sitting or walking I think communication is key. This includes making expectations clear, frequent updates, and not hesitating to reach out if needed.
“Lilly is wonderful! For context, I’m a five-star pet sitter on Rover, and I *highly* recommend her! Lilly took time to understand all directions, care, and just general quirks with our two dogs and one cat. One of our dogs can be quite shy when we leave. Lilly understood that, let that dog exist in her natural state, and, of course, that dog warmed up to her😊 We also have a hide-and-seek kitty … Lilly got her to come out and play, too! Most importantly, we knew our animals were loved and cared for! Lily sent lots of photos and updates, and our home was just as we left it. Thank you, Lilly!”
“This was my first time using Rover and Stacy made it a great experience. Her response time was super fast and she was friendly and patient at the meet and greet. We have two rotten bulldogs, one a senior and the other a puppy and very new addition to our household. Stacy put both them and me, the picky pet parent, totally at ease. So great to have a option we can trust. Thanks, Stacy!”
About: I’ve been responsible for caring for my own dogs since middle school and have continued caring for pets into adulthood. This includes daily walks, feeding, playtime, grooming, and making sure they stay healthy and comfortable. Living with and caring for dogs for many years has helped me learn how to read their behavior, be patient with different personalities, and keep them on consistent routines. I understand how much pets mean to their owners, and I always treat animals with kindness, attention, and respect. I work a hybrid job. I’m available after 5 PM on Mondays and Tuesdays, and most times Wednesday through Sunday for walks, visits, and pet care. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and stress-free. This includes feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, and giving them attention and companionship. In a client’s home, I respect their space and carefully follow all instructions for their pet’s care, routines, and safety. I also make sure pets get plenty of exercise, bathroom breaks, and a calm environment so they feel secure while their owner is away.
“Olivia was wonderful with our three pets! We received photos and updates of how they were doing the week that she stayed at our house. I left her a fairly detailed list of instructions regarding our pets and home and she followed everything perfectly. It's was also a nice surprise coming back to a home that was as clean as we left it! Highly recommend Olivia for at home stays.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Stone Mountain
Kevasha was wonderful with our dogs. We have 3 (2 large GSDs and 1 Chihuahua). She walked them, let them out and entertained them. She was wonderful with our house as well and we enjoyed having her watch the dogs. She shared pictures and updates throughout the day
Joshua was amazing with our Murphy! He came over for a M&G beforehand and was super accommodating. Murphy can be very stubborn and Joshua was great with managing that. He left our home in great condition and even stripped the sheets for us. We got plenty of pictures & updates while we were gone. Would work with Joshua again!!
I can’t say enough about how great Dana was with my fur baby, Milan! She made Milan feel comfortable and loved. She communicated often about how things were going and made sure both I and Milan were comfortable. I’m very pleased with my first Rover experience here in a new city!

The average cost of House Sitting in Stone Mountain is $53 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $75 per night.

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 Stone Mountain 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 Stone Mountain 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 Stone Mountain 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.

- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
