“Alanna is terrific - Pepper remembered her from last time and ran right away to get her ball - she knew Alanna came just to play with her! 😄 Both times now, Pepper was well cared for and happy, and my house was cleaner than I left it. She sent photos and stayed in touch - I was very satisfied.”
About: Growing up my household was always blessed with multiple animals. Some of my best childhood memories revolved around my dogs. I had a German Shepherd, a border collie, a Rottweiler, and a couple of rescue pups. My childhood gave me an appreciation for the intelligence and love that dogs can show. I'll admit large bois hold a special place in my heart but there's room for all sizes! I currently work part-time as Coach in fitness. I teach classes early morning 5-9 and late in the evening 3-8, So I am available outside of those classes. I am generally completely available during the weekends! I am very active, I have a lots of stamina and strength to keep up with the pups! I am also very health conscious :)
About: I’ve had pets my whole life. And I have walked dogs for neighbors in the past. I love animals and love to help them in any kind of way! I am currently looking for a full time job so I have a lot of open availability. I’m very flexible and drive my own car. My apartment is very safe! I have to keep it baby proof for my cat anyway so I am very careful about that. I am very clean and always clean up after myself.
“Kelly was amazing with Lucy. She communicated with me throughout her stay and Lucy was very comfortable with her. Lucy has never eaten for a dog sitter on day one due to her anxiety, but she ate for Kelly. I will definitely work with Kelly again.”
“We have booked Alexis to house sit for our dog, Burton, more than once, and we definitely plan on booking her again in the future! Took great care of our pup and house!”
“Tammy was an amazing pet sitter. She was super attentive and responsive. She left my house spotless and even washed the sheets for me. She did periodic check ins and sent photos of the pups. I would highly recommend booking Tammy. She is sweet and very caring. I could tell my pups were well taken care of.”
“Joshua did a great job with my 2 dogs, and 11 month old Dalmation puppy, and a 7 year old Hungarian Pumi. He went above and beyond when I did not arrive home when I told him I would be there...( flight delays) Joshua stayed until 1:30 am to make sure the dogs would be OK . The dogs really seemed to enjoy him and were sorry to see him go! I can highly recommend him!”
“Emily is fantastic!!! We book with her whenever we need a pet sitter - she's great with our fur baby and very thoughtful and professional. I would highly recommend!!”
About: Hi everyone! I have been pet sitting for about three years and absolutely adore animals. What sets me apart from other sitters is that in high school I took four years of vet science and learned so much about behaviors and different animal systems. I have also grown up around animals and carry an enormous amount of empathy and respect for them. I do currently work full time so I am mostly available for morning & night visits but I am very reliable:) I am looking for an extra job since I am currently saving for my first apartment! In my clients home I enjoy cuddling with their pets, playing with toys and going on walks. I take very good care of my clients homes and leave it looking fresh every time. At my own home I am always cuddling my cats and giving them lots of kisses and treats😆
“Wesley was fantastic! My sweet boy is blind and diabetic with a long list of medications and needs. Wesley was kind and patient with exceptional attention to detail managing his needs. Anxious about leaving him in anyone’s care I was reassured at every step by photos and updates throughout the stay and it was clear that my boy was receiving so much love! Wesley is a treasure!”
“Tatiana was an amazing sitter for all our fur babies. She treated them as her own and spoiled them lots. We got many pictures of the pets which gave us the warm and fuzzy they were good in her care. She kept our house clean/ in order and we'd gladly hire her again!”
“We couldn’t recommend Devin more to any pet owner! From the start, she was incredibly detail-oriented, ensuring she fully understood our dogs’ needs before accepting the booking. Throughout her stay, she provided the highest level of care, complete with pet report cards that gave us great insight into our dogs’ behavior and well-being. She went above and beyond with consistent updates and left our home even better than we left it. Most importantly, our dogs absolutely loved her, and we trust her completely. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Great job! Icealin paid attention to all the details, making sure the house was taken care of too, not just the pooch. I came back from holiday travel and blizzards everywhere, and all was well.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Tybee Island
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Tybee Island on Rover is $42.8 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of September 2026, there are 621 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Tybee Island. 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 Tybee Island 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 Tybee Island 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 Tybee Island 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 with handling special pet needs in Tybee Island. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
