About: I have been caring for dogs since childhood. I ran a neighborhood dog-sitting business that cared for over 4 dogs a week. I currently love my family dogs: the feisty corgi and the loving german shepherd. I have been relied on to feed, groom, walk, and care for pets for years. I am a recent medical school graduate who has been taking care of healthcare patients and dogs for several years. I have been trusted with pets, children, and adults for years, but animals have a special place in my heart. My first dog lived for over 12 years, so I do have experience with older dogs as well. I am currently working as a dog-sitter full-time. I am free to take your doggies anywhere you would like in the area. I currently live next to a dog-friendly park and am also free to take your dog even for just a few hours. Whenever you need me, I am there! Caring for your pets at your home is fully up to your discretion. I have offered this at my previous dog-sitting business and it worked amazingly. I can come in to check on your doggie at any time or stay in house. I am very flexible and a great listener to instructions.
“Jamie was awesome this week taking care of the dogs while we packed up our FL home to move. They love having him stay and he always shares great updates so I don’t worry at all about them!”
“Lauren was absolutely amazing!! I had to find a sitter last minute, and I loved her bio the moment I read it. She responded quickly to my request and made sure to nail out the details for my dog’s stay. I could tell she’s experienced and loves animals, and so could my dog! She sent regular updates and pictures, and when I saw my dog frolicking in her backyard and snuggled up later on in the evening like he forgot I had dropped him off was all I needed to set my mind at ease haha! Lauren is a fantastic sitter and I will absolutely be booking her again. Thank you so much!!”
“Ashton spent 8 days homesitting our two babies Frankie and Dixie while we were away on vacation. She texted us daily with pictures and updates on how things were going. We were pleased with her service, especially with her staying at our home with our babies. She took care of our babies and our checked the mail daily. Will use her again on future trips.”
“Lauren was SO AMAZING! Not only did she petsit for my senior dog Howard but she house sat as well. She communicated daily with photos of Howard! She also cleaned up the house before she left! I cannot wait to book her again and Howard was not depressed when I got home. Usually he is depressed and takes 1-3 days to be his happy usual self, not the case with Lauren. I would highly recommend her as a house and pet sitter!”
“As Alia was a perfect overnight dog sitter. Our pups loved her and felt safe with her care. She went above and beyond with feeding, playtime, and keeping them happy while we were away for a two week trip. Even when a medical emergency arose, she acted quickly and was able to get our dog care without hesitation. I would recommend her to anyone. She’s one of the best sitters we’ve had!”
“She was very good with the dogs!! Sent lots of pictures and kept us abreast of how the dogs behaved. She was on time and didn’t mind coming to the hotel to watch them. If I come back to Atlanta I would definitely use her again!!”
“Amazing sitter. Ultra professional! Early and so kind. Our dog was so comfortable with her. She gave us frequent updates with pictures . Chelsey was an absolute gem 💎!”
“Maya is the most caring and thoughtful person ever and I was so lucky to have had her help in watching my older diabetic dog. I felt truly at ease while he was in her care as she provided me with many pictures and updates and was completely reliable and communicative. Maya is highly recommended by me and I am just so happy to have found her.”
“Alana is great! She was very friendly and so accommodating. My dog has pretty bad separation anxiety and even though he was a little anxious when I left, she did her best to pet, play, and comfort him for the day. He loved her! And I was grateful for the awesome communication throughout the day. Pictures, updates, etc. I hope we get a chance to work with her again because she is wonderful!”
“Paola was great with our two cats and little dog! She kept the house super clean and messaged me pictures of the pets throughout when we were gone. I would definitely book her again!”
“Enjoyed our Meet & Greet. Valarie arrived promptly and presented herself professionally. She had a great rapport with our dogs. We did chose to make a future booking with her.”
“Thank you for taking care of my over grown puppy. Greatly appreciated. Looking at your schedule. Amazing young lady. Very kind, gentle, respectful and amazing with my GSD who needs lots of attention.”
“Lydia did a great job taking care of my senior pup, who due to his age, has more needs now. She kept me updated on how he was doing, and even tidied up my place. I would definitely use Lydia again to care for my pup.”
“She did such a great job staying with our two old lady dachshunds! Gave us the peace of mind we needed while we are away, with lots of photo updates, responsive, on time, and took great care of them and our home. Will definitely be having her come stay with the girls again!”
“Khadijah took great care of our Double Trouble Bandits (Jack Russell Terrior and Chihuahua Mix) LOL. She was extremely patient even with all of the initial barking. They both settled and eventually snuggled up with her. Thank you again and we would love to have you house sit again in the future.”
“Mariangely was AMAZING with taking care of our pups while we were out of town! She kept us super informed throughout the entire stay, sent multiple pictures and checked in consistently. The dogs loved her even our shy fur baby. We’ve never seen him welcome someone so quickly before. Would book her over and over again. She also left our home spotless! Definitely recommend her services.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Vinings
I feel so lucky to have found Maya! She watched my 18 year old pup Diego for a long weekend at my home and I was absolutely at ease with her caring for him the whole time. She really took the time to get to know my old guy, establish trust, followed all my “decrepit senior dog with a tiny bit of dementia” protocols, and sent detailed updates morning and evening with a ton of pics. She took great care of my home, and most importantly I arrived to a happy pup!! So appreciative to have found someone so lovely - thank you!!!
Alana was amazing! We have two older dogs that can sometimes take a little while to warm up to people, but our dogs took to her rather quickly. She gave us frequent and detailed updates. One of our pups has some separation anxiety and can refuse to eat when we are gone. She let us know he was doing ok and even sent us pictures of him eating on a regular basis. As a side note, we also had a very unfortunate roof leak right before we left. Alana was very accommodating when we needed to have a contractor come by and assess the issue. I cannot recommend Alana enough. We will definitely be using her again to watch our pups.
Carly was fantastic in taking care of my 10 week old puppy and my older cat. She arranged a meet up at the house before the sit date to get acquainted which was nice. My puppy immediately bonded with her as she was both gentle and playful. During the sit, she sent updates & photos. Both my animals were happy, fed, and sleeping contently when I got home. Carly is friendly, kind, and truly loves animals. So glad I found her! Highly recommend.
Beth worked well with Gigi’s special dietary needs, monitored her eating, and was sure to give her plenty of outdoor and indoor playtime. She was patient with her noise sensitivity when an HVAC company had to replace a furnace/AC coil system, which was noisy and lasted an entire morning. Thank you!
Ariana was incredible! Very professional and punctual, she immediately bonded with our giant puppy, cat, and guinea pigs. She was attentive and communicative during the weekend, providing many updates and pictures. And she left no trace that she had been in our home when she left. We simply cannot recommend her any more highly! 10/10, no notes!
No words to describe how totally pleased we were with Natalia’s care for our dogs. She is like the dog whisperer. We have 1 dog who is outgoing and loves new people and experiences. And another dog who is the complete opposite… slow to warm up to anyone or anything new. In fact, she has never allowed any dog sitters to leash her. Well, Natalia was able to win over our skittish girl in a couple of days! She was able to leash her… that is a first! And she sent so many updates and photos. And we could see from our dogs faces and body language that they were very happy. Highly, highly recommend her!
So grateful for Sha’Pri and the excellent care she took of Ari & Boss in our home! She had such calm energy and patience, the dogs were instantly at ease with her. She was understanding of their needs and went the extra mile to meet them where they are: a slow moving senior gal and a terrified-of-fireworks guy (on 4th of July). Her care gave us all peace of mind. We would happily book Sha’Pri again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Vinings on Rover is $58.85 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 4,765 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Vinings. 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 Vinings 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 Vinings 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 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!
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 Vinings. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
