“Liz was awesome! Our fur babies loved her! She sent several pics even though she stayed 1 night. When we got home, everything was nice and neat. We highly recommend Liz and would definitely use her again!”
“Suzanne was nothing but spectacular. She was extremely meticulous with our pets and I was very comfortable having her stay in our home. She went above and beyond with things around the house, inside and out. Watered plants, filled feeders, laundry etc. She was always reachable and sent pictures. I am pretty particular with who I choose to watch our pets and Suzanne exceeded my expectations. ❤️ Thank you, Suzanne!!”
“Avary did an amazing job watching my for baby and chickens for the weekend. They were well taken care of and the house was left the way I left it. My only complaint is I wish she sent me more pictures. Definitely will book again.”
“Daniela was amazing. When we got home from our trip our dog was so happy and relaxed. She washed our sheets and sent us regular updates of how everything was going while we were away. I would highly recommend Daniela.”
“So glad to have found MaryKate. I have a dog with high anxiety and it’s difficult to get away. He was completely comfortable with her, and I had a great stress-free weekend away. Oh, and two senior cats. No problem.”
“Autumn is an absolute dream! We had her house sit and stay with my two French Bulldogs while we went out of town for a few days. She was absolutely amazing! She kept me in the loop, sent tons of pictures and took such amazing care of them. It was really great for my dogs to be able to stay in their own home and receive the kind of attention they are used to, especially since it is difficult for me to leave them being that they are naturally an anxious breed. I didn’t have to worry at all while I was gone—I knew they were in great hands! We will definitely be contacting Autumn anytime we need help with them :)”
“McKinnon took great care of our pup. She kept in touch with us and sent us photos (which we love and so appreciate), and Frasier was obviously well cared for and happy while we were away. Thanks so much, McKinnon!!”
“Cheney did a great job caring for our puppy! She has such a sweet, understanding, fun demeanor and our dog loved her! She kept us updated throughout the time she watched our pup and she was extremely timely with her communication before the visit. We will definitely book with Cheney again!”
About: I grew up working on Cheryl's farm. Savethehorses. Helped look after all kinds of animals including over 15 dogs. There was never a dull moment being surrounded by all types of animals in my care. I currently own 3 dogs now but have owned up to 5 dogs at one time and cats in the past. I have raised a couple dog liters as well as one cat liter. All found amazing homes and I have been able to stay connected to watch them grow and thrive. I have training in animal behavior as it is important to know what to look for when caring after someone else's animal, even your own. Things can happen fast and you have to be able to know what to do next. I have raised three male dogs in my house hold and as you probably can guess, things can get overwhelming but it's important to know what to do if an animal makes a quick decision that can change the situation very quickly. Each animal has their own specific needs and I will be sure to follow what is needed for your fur babies to thrive while you are away or working in within your home. Whether it is my animal I'm caring for or someone else's, I take it very seriously to ensure the proper care is given. I have a senior dog at home as well, she is 13yrs old with cancer and a deteriorating spinal cord disease who gets supplements every morning amongst other medications. She is my couch potato but my absolute world, she is fragile and living out the last years of her life being the wonderful potato she is. I have experience in birthing two dog liters and 1 cat liter. Experienced in what is needed before and after birth. Extra care if needed. I have worked along the side of a professional dog trainer as well as helped run a boarding and training facility up to 30 dogs, being one out of two kennel techs. I work at a vet hospital in ellijay, ga for dogs and cats of all sizes and breeds currently. I am looking to help others out who need the extra hand in caring for their fur babies. If your working from home or away or just simply need the extra hand. I've got you! Sometimes it takes a village and it's important to know you can trust someone to take care of your fur babies no matter the size or fluff. It's important to take your pups for a walk or utilize the pets favorite way to get all that energy out could be throwing a ball or Sometimes even going for a run if you have any that are like my huskies and cattle dogs, that energy never dies.
“Cathy is amazing! Highly recommend. We have two spoiled yorkies. Cathy gave them excellent attention and care while we were out of town. She sent us pictures and updates daily. We were able to fully enjoy our vacation knowing our fur babies were in great hands.”
“Gabby and Baylee had a wonderful stay with Leah at our home while we were away for a family event. Leah kept us updated with their activities and went the extra mile to make sure "the girls" were happy and in their normal routines of play time, nap time, meal time & bed time. We will absolutely use her again to house sit our pups and for drop in visits. Thank you Leah. P.S. Monday morning Baylee went over to the guest room door and sat down waiting for Leah to come out to play!! That's a real pup satisfaction review!”
“My dog sitter had an issue the day before. Mary stepped in last minute and saved the day! She took incredible care of nefe and was so gracious to take such a short notice request. Absolutely recommend and will be booking her again! Thank you so much for everything!”
“We could not be happier with the care our pets received! Taking care of four animals is no small task, and she handled everything with so much love, responsibility, and attention to detail. From the moment we met her, we felt completely at ease—and that peace of mind continued the entire time we were away. She made sure every pet was comfortable, well cared for, and loved, treating them as if they were her own. Communication was excellent, updates were reassuring, and it was clear she truly understands animals and their individual needs. Coming home to happy, calm pets says everything. We are beyond grateful and would 100% trust her again without hesitation. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and exceptional pet sitter!”
About: I love caring for pets and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away! I've been dog sitting for family and friends for the past three years and have experience with all kinds of pups. From energetic puppies who need lots of attention and playtime to senior dogs who require medication and a little extra care. I know every pet has their own personality and routine, and I always do my best to help them feel relaxed and right at home. I love being active and spending time outdoors, so if your dog enjoys walks, playtime, or just hanging out outside, I'll make sure they get plenty of exercise and attention. If they're more laid-back and prefer relaxing inside, I'm happy to spend quality time indoors too! I also have experience caring for elderly dogs, including administering medications and following special care instructions. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you're away and make sure your pet gets lots of love and the best care possible! Pet care fits naturally into my routine! I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that means going for walks, playing, giving medications, or just keeping them company. I’m flexible with my schedule and always make sure pets get plenty of attention. I always make sure to follow all of my client's instructions and care for their pets as if they were my own. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I will also treat your home with the same respect and care! I prioritize keeping everything clean and exactly how I found it while you're away.
“Jenna was great even Sage our Jack Russell that gets anxious when we leave on a trip warmed up to her quickly. Nova our other dog loved her from the moment she walked in. She left the apartment clean and very happy dogs. Jenna’s response rate and updates were 100%, I would definitely recommend having Jenna take care of your pets.”
About: I have done training with both of my dogs and have learned a lot about dog behavior and dog body language. Before getting into the pet industry, I was a paramedic for the last 15 years. I can handle stressful situations and I'm not afraid to get dirty. I'm the process of taking a class for pet first aid and CPR I would love during my down time to stay active by walking/ running with your dogs. I am also up for enrichment activities as well. My own dogs have been through dog training classes. I have learned a lot about dog behaviors and body language. I am truly one of those people who believe in boundaries even for pets. Not everyone wants to be touched, and others need to respect that. I always carry in my car or on my person, extra treats, extra leashes, and first aid kits not only for the animals but for people as well. I would rather come over prepared than nothing at all. If you need your dog taken somewhere I do have a safety crate secured in the back of my car. I won't travel with my dogs in the car without safety that includes your dogs as well.
“Veronica an outstanding house sitter for us and our 3 goldens. She took great care of our home and "kids" while we were away with great communication and check ins all the way. She left our home as she had found it, and I will not hesitate to hire her again.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Tate
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Tate on Rover is $69.93 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 2,040 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Tate. 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 Tate 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 Tate 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 Tate 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.
