“Our experience was fantastic and I will gladly book them in the future whenever I am town. Elle watched over our 3 cats, and we loved seeing the daily update messages and photos. 2 of our cats are always hiding from strangers, but our other girl, Cali, was brave and Elle got her out of her shell quickly. When our girl Cali fell asleep next to Elle, it completely confirmed that we were right to hire them. As a new Georgia resident who had to find all new trusted resources, I can confidently recommend Elle.”

She kept Remi safe and comfortable even throughout his anxiety, and made sure he got his walks in. Her communication is amazing & I’m so thankful for her watching over him!”

About: 🐶 I love long walks in the park… especially with dogs. I specialize in caring for small dogs (30 lbs and under) in a calm, loving home environment. I live in an apartment and have a small dog of my own, so I focus on hosting pups who are comfortable in a cozy space and enjoy the company of other small dogs. 🐶 My dog Zeke is a 10-year-old, 15-pound Australian Terrier mix with a sweet personality and plenty of energy. He’s up to date on all vaccinations and flea/tick prevention, and I ask the same for any pups staying with us so everyone stays safe and healthy. 🐶 Because I work remotely, I’m home most of the day and able to give dogs lots of attention. A typical stay includes multiple walks, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of cuddles. I also send photo updates so you can relax knowing your pup is happy and in good hands. 🐶 My goal is to create a calm, safe, and fun environment where your dog feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’ve spent years caring for small dogs and understand their personalities, quirks, and routines. 🐶 Since I live in an apartment with a small dog, I usually care for dogs 30 pounds or under who are at least 3 years old, friendly with small dogs, and up to date on vaccinations and flea/tick prevention. 🐶 If I’m caring for your dog in your home, I follow their routine closely so they stay comfortable and stress-free. I’d love to meet you and your pup. Feel free to reach out with any questions. Pet care seamlessly fits into my daily routine because I work remotely, allowing me to be home throughout the day to give your pet the attention they deserve. I’m highly adaptable to your pet’s specific needs, whether they require a consistent schedule or a little extra care. Typically, I’m able to provide 3–4 walks a day, along with plenty of playtime, cuddles, and bathroom breaks. Your pup’s wellbeing is my top priority, and my flexible schedule ensures they’re happy, active, and cared for while you're away. Let me know how I can best meet your pet’s needs! In my home, I provide a safe and loving environment with plenty of playtime, cuddles, and treats (with your approval). When I step out, I keep pets relaxed with the YouTube dog TV channel or calming music. In your home, I follow your pet’s routine, including feeding, walks, and playtime, to ensure they feel comfortable and cared for. My goal is to create a stress free and happy experience wherever they are!

About: What sets me apart is a lifetime of genuine love and hands on experience with dogs of all ages and personalities. I’m new to Rover but not new to caring for my furry friends. I’ve had dogs my entire life and truly understand what it takes to keep them happy, healthy, and comfortable. I've provided overnight care, daily walks/jogs, hikes and plenty of affection with many happy, returning clients who trust me like family. Whether it's a playful puppy who needs training or a gentle senior, I tailor my care to each dog's needs, always ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well exercised. I have an abundance of love for animals! Pet sitting is perfect for my weekly routine! I’ve been wanting a puppy but living in an apartment prevents me from committing! I need the exercise just as much as these puppies do. When caring for dogs in clients’ homes with crates and yards, I always follow the routine and preferences you're comfortable with. If your dog is crate-trained, I make sure the crate remains a safe, calm space. I keep it clean, cozy, and follow your timing for crate use. If there's a yard, I supervise outdoor time closely, making sure the space is secure and your dog stays safe and active. I balance playtime, exercise, and downtime based on your dog’s energy and comfort level, always keeping your instructions at the center of care. When walking I am physically fit to protect and play with your baby!

About: I’ve recently started to pet sit and care for a friend’s cats. I’m also a pet parent myself and have been for 6 years. I’d love the opportunity to help care for and meet other pets and people! Regularly I work from 9-5 remotely. I’d prefer to schedule pet care outside of that window but since I work remotely it is no problem to take my laptop along with me if I am pet sitting. In a clients home, I’d want to make sure your pet is loved on, fed and taken care of for the day. Whether that’s cleaning the litter or walking the dog for the day. With cats, I think it’s important too to make sure I see them for the day but let them do their thing if they’re not cuddly. I would also make sure that the home is taken care of, meaning cleaning up any litter on the floor or making sure the home is comfortable for your pets as you requested. As well as playing with your dog and keeping them entertained or loved on for the time I spend with them.

About: I have always loved/cared for animals. From family pets to friends pets to petsitting part time. I have watched dogs, cats, chickens, turtles. I have cared for puppies and senior dogs as well, small and large. I know that each pet has different needs and I genuinely love caring for and getting to know each one of them. I work 9-3 Monday- Thursdays. I'm available for overnight stays, some afternoons and all evenings of the day and weekends. A few days notice preferred. I am available for drop in visits and overnight stays. I always read instructions and require a home visit before sitting to meet everyone and get a clear understanding of what is required. I always care for pets with love and their homes with respect.

“Kenna was great with our two pups! They connected with her right away, and they were happy and relaxed after we got home from a long day away. Due to a last minute change in our plans we asked to change the times of our two scheduled drop-ins, and she was very quick to respond to my message, and flexible to change the visit times. We could not have asked for a better experience all around!!”

About: I’m definitely the type of sitter who pays attention to the little things! 🐾 I know every dog has their own personality—some want to play all day, some want all the cuddles, and some need a little time to warm up to you. I’m patient and let them get comfortable at their own pace. As a dog mom myself, I have hands-on experience with everyday dog care, including feeding routines, walks, playtime, basic medication, and keeping an eye out for changes in behavior or how a dog is feeling. I’m also comfortable caring for puppies who need extra potty breaks, playtime, and consistency, as well as senior dogs who may need a slower pace and a little extra patience. I’m big on communication too, so expect plenty of pictures and updates while you’re away! 📸🐶 I want you to feel like your pup is hanging out with someone they know, not just being “watched.” Pet care fits really naturally into my routine! 🐾 I work during the week, but I have flexibility in the evenings and more availability on weekends. I’m already used to planning my day around walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention because I have a pup of my own. I’m especially available for evening drop-ins, walks, and weekend care. I like staying active, so having a furry walking buddy is honestly a bonus for me 😂🐶. I’ll always make sure I have enough time to give your pup the attention they deserve without making them feel rushed! I try to keep things as close to your pet’s normal routine as possible because I know how much dogs love their routines! 🐶 I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medications, and of course plenty of love and attention. When pets stay with me, I make sure my home is clean, comfortable, and pet-friendly. I keep anything they could get into out of reach, make sure doors are secure, and always keep an eye on them—especially when they’re getting used to a new environment. I also have a pup of my own, so I understand how important it is to make sure everyone feels safe and comfortable around each other. When I’m in your home, I’m just as careful and respectful. I’ll make sure doors are locked, your pup is secure, and your home is left the way I found it. And of course, expect plenty of pictures and little updates along the way! 📸🐾 Whether your dog wants to play all day or considers napping a full-time job 😂, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.

About: As a lifelong pet lover, I have experience caring for both cats and dogs and understand that every pet has their own unique personality and needs. I grew up with a Jack Russell Terrier and a tabby cat, and I currently have a cat of my own named Charlie. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, from playful puppies and kittens to senior pets who may need extra patience and attention. I’m also comfortable administering medications and following specific care routines to ensure your pet stays happy and healthy. Being a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m patient, attentive, and dependable, and I’ll treat your pets like family while making sure they receive plenty of care, attention, playtime, and affection! As a part-time nurse, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to caring for your pets. I can work around your pet’s routine to provide consistent care, whether that means walks, feeding, playtime, medication, or extra cuddles and companionship. I understand how important reliability and consistency are for pets, and I’ll make sure they receive the attention and care they deserve while you’re away! Since I have a cat of my own, Charlie, I’m unable to board other pets in my home, but I’m happy to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home! I know pets feel most comfortable in a familiar environment, surrounded by their usual routines and belongings. I’ll make sure they have fresh food and water, clean litter boxes, plenty of playtime, take for walks, and lots of love and attention. I’m also happy to administer medications and follow any specific instructions to keep your pet happy, safe, and comfortable while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets like my own and provide updates for your peace of mind!

About: I have grown up my entire life surrounded by animals of all kinds including horses, dogs, cats and more and have always had a deep passion for caring for them. I recently graduated from chiropractic school from Life University and plan to apply to the animal chiropractic program next spring to continue building my skills to help serve animals as well as humans! Animals hold a special place in my heart and it is always an honor when someone trusts me to watch and care for their pet. I am currently working part time doing coverage work for my mentor's chiropractic office as she is on maternity leave. The rest of my free time is dedicated to watching your sweet pet and providing them with all the love and attention possible! I will care for your pet as if they were my own. Making sure to keep you up to date with all the photos and messages you could ever ask for to make you feel comfortable.

About: I believe would be your best option for a sitter because of my long history of hands-on experience and genuine love for animals. I ran a small pet-sitting business from ages 11–15 and worked with multiple clients, which taught me responsibility and clear communication. I’ve cared for energetic puppies, older dogs who need patience, and cats with very different personalities — from playful to more independent. I focus on safety, comfort, and sticking to each pet’s routine so they feel secure and well cared for. I currently work from home with all of the flexibility in the world when it comes to my schedule. I also consider taking care of your pets to be my first priority above anything else when it comes to weekends. My home is very suitable for your dog or cat to have a comfortable stay! I have one old (almost 14 year old) dog who gets along very well with other dogs and cats and am able to keep her and your pet separate if you would prefer. I have a yard as well as a very walk friendly neighborhood.

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Vinings

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Vinings is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $39 per visit. 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 7,041 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Vinings. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

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 Vinings 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!

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.

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.

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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Vinings with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Vinings. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.

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.
