“I can't say enough good things about Laura. Professional, loving, attentive, my dogs just love her! I was nervous leaving my dogs with a sitter. All my worries were for nothing!! She's fantastic!!”
About: I am a dog and cat lover and always happy to take the best care of your beloved family member. I originally came from Wag! a different dog walking/sitting app with over 800 completed services with a 5 star rating. I trained puppies, taken care of senior dogs, administered insulin, and love caring for dogs of all sizes. I have done dog walking/ pet sitting full time for a few years and currently looking for new clients as I moved to this area from Nashville TN. I prefer sitting in my clients home, it makes me comfortable knowing the pet is in their space and have their familiar surroundings. And following the routine the owners have given me to ensure their pets are happy, healthy, and safe while they are away!
About: Hi! My name is Will, and I have over 3 years of professional pet care experience working at Yellow Dog Kennel, a family-owned boarding and daycare facility operated by my parents. Through my work there, I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments on a daily basis. My responsibilities include feeding, exercising, supervising play groups, monitoring behavior, maintaining a safe environment, and making sure every dog receives the attention and care they deserve. Working with dogs every day has taught me how important trust and reliability are when it comes to pet care. I have experience with energetic puppies, senior dogs, and dogs that may need extra patience or special attention. Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop-in visit, or companionship while you’re away, I will treat them as if they were my own and provide dependable care, regular updates, and plenty of love and attention along the way. I’m available everyday from 5:30am to 6:30 am, 10am to 1pm, 2pm to 3pm, 6:30pm-8:00pm, and anything after 9pm. I work at the dog kennel still, so I need to work around my regular hours there, which is 7-10, 1-2, 4-6 and 8-8:30. I currently offer care in my clients’ homes through dog walking and drop-in visits. During visits, I’ll make sure pets have fresh food and water, bathroom breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention. I also monitor their behavior and well-being to ensure they are happy, safe, and comfortable while their owners are away. As someone who works professionally with dogs every day at a family-owned kennel, I understand the importance of maintaining a pet’s routine and providing dependable care. I treat every pet as if they were my own and provide updates so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away.

I'm adept at handling all aspects of pet care, including feeding, administering medications, and ensuring they get plenty of exercise and enrichment. I'm dedicated to following each pet's unique routine and will treat your companion with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. You can rest assured that your pet will be safe, happy, and comfortable under my care. I am available weekdays after 4:30 PM and any time on weekends to drop in to care for and play with your furry family members. During my drop-in visits, I'll provide fresh food and water, and, of course, give them plenty of love, attention, and playtime. I'll also send photo updates so you can see how happy and comfortable your pet is in the safety of their own home.
“Andrew stayed with my babies for the second time. He does a great job with them, they are well cared for, house still looks great when I return, and he checks in. I will continue booking with him and highly recommend.”
“The dogs loved Elena and we did too! She played with them outside and they loved it. She kept in touch with us and kept us up to date on what was going on with our babies. We will have her again! Anyone would be lucky to have her for their dog sitter.”
About: I have been taken care of animals since I can remember! I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals/different breeds and I love it!

About: I’ve had pets my whole life, I currently I have two dogs, and three cats that I take care of along side my family. I grew up rescuing strays with my grandpa and finding them forever homes I currently work full time in fast food. My hours are randomized from 11am until possibly 2am. I would be able to take care of the pet before my shift would begin, as well as be granted a break to see the pet during the day/night. I treat my pets like family.

About: My name is Laura. I have been a dog owner my whole life. I have been a Rover sitter on and off for about 5 years and would love to take care of your fur babies while you are out of town. I have owned several special needs animals and am good at working with animals of all temperments. I have experience dealing with dogs of all ages and sizes. I especially love caring for older dogs who may need a little extra care and attention. I have worked with large groups of dogs and am willing to take care of several at a time if you have a large pet family. I have open availability and would love to play with your dog and make sure they are well taken care of. I have a full time job with flexibility. As long as I have about a weeks notice it should not be a problem to accommodate weekday visits to pets. Weekends are no problem. I like to do an initial house visit with the owner to get an idea of what the house looks like and where the pet is comfortable. If we cannot get a face to face meeting first please message me with detailed care instructions to ensure proper care for your pet.
About: I have experience fostering dogs with the animal shelter APL and have a small toy poodle of my own. He is very friendly with other dogs and loves to play. I love dogs and would love to have the opportunity to watch dogs and take care of others! I am open to watching dogs for a couple hours, a day, or even a couple of days if that is what is needed. My house has a small backyard and I am also available to do drop ins at the dogs own home. The area is very quiet and would be comfortable for another dog to be in. If I am caring for someone else's dog I plan on being home for the time I'm watching the dog so that it will be well taken care of. I’m currently only working part time so I have plenty of time to spend with your animals. I am available early mornings or early afternoons to give your animal a break during the workday! I am also available any time on the weekends. I have a fenced in yard and 2 friendly dogs to keep your dog company. I have a toy poodle and a golden retriever. I can also do drops in to walk or play with your dog as well!
“Amanda is wonderful. The love for our pet Doris was obvious & vice versa. She's kind, gentle & left us without any worries while we were away. Amanda stayed in touch with us, which is a nice perk! She's topnotch & we'll be having her come back as often as we can. We highly recommend Amanda for any of your home/pet needs!!!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Tallula
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 79 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Tallula. 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 Tallula 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 Tallula 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 Tallula 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
