“Melissa is wonderful with large dogs and did a fantastic job caring for my two shepherds. She took the time to get to know their personalities and routines, which made the entire experience seamless and stress-free. Her communication was excellent, she was dependable, and it was clear she genuinely cared about my dogs' well-being. It's not easy finding someone confident and experienced with large breeds, but Melissa exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, professional, and caring pet sitter. I will absolutely use her again.”
“Abigail did a fantastic job watching our critters! She was great about sending pics of Oban and Mabel, and she kept our house looking nice and clean. We would definitely have her house sit again and recommend her!”
About: Summary: Hello, my name is Brennan Silliman. I am seeking a Dog / Cat sitter job opportunity near Greensboro or Athens, Georgia. I live in Barnett Shoals and Reynolds Plantation (when I’m home) so I prefer not to travelling too far from there, if necessary. Personally, I have grown up with dogs / cats for 27years of my life. I have in-depth animal experience as I currently intern with my local veterinarian and the veterinarians at UGA. To be honest, I’d like to think I’m overqualified to care for your pet compared to other Rover caretakers since I am a 4th year veterinary student at UGA and plan to pursue a lifelong field designated in caring and saving animal’s lives. My primary veterinarian is at Main Street Vet in Madison. As of now, I am somewhat flexible since I’m off clinics. Shoot me a message and I'll reply within a day or so. Thank you. (PS-my current rates do not reflect what I will overall charge. I’d prefer we discuss over the phone everything beforehand) *******It is important to note that the rates listed on my page are not what I actually charge. They are usually higher or lower depending on the number of animals, days, etc. I use rover as a way to reach clientele thus I do custom payment. Do not book through rover. However, message me through here.******* I have three loving dogs (all of them are terriers) at my home in Greensboro. I make sure the 10 month old is on a leash at all times since he still is learning the ropes around where we live. I would provide the same care with your pets and make sure they are nearby me at all times.
“I would highly recommend Briana. My pups absolutely adored her. She was thoughtful and attentive with her approach to each of the 3 pups, because they all can be highly energetic. She was also on top of administering the oral prescription for one of my pups. We used the house sitting service. The pups loved having her around and getting cuddles in. Morever, Briana was a very courteous and considerate house guest. She would be a great option for anyone considering.”
About: I have been around animals my whole life and I love them! I have a 4 year old kitty named Bunny and she is everything to me. My best friend has a mini Australian shepherd that is very friendly and I love being around him. I also have watched my brother and sister in law’s dogs for 2 years now. They ranged from having 4-8 dogs at different points and I would love to go stay with them, feed them, and get to play with their fluffy selves! I am working limited hours at this time, so I am available weekdays 8 a.m.- 2 p.m. and 5:45 p.m.- 9 p.m., and also weekends any time! I will monitor the animals needs and be there in any way I am needed. I will take them outside as much as directed, feed them, make sure they have water, and love on them!
“Amanda was great! She stayed at our house for a week and took amazing care of our pups. She was very communicative and sent pictures throughout the week! We will definitely be using her again :)”
About: Effective October 15, 2026: I am relocating and moving services to Milledgeville, Ga. I will reinstate my pickup/dropoff fees. Please review the profile in its entirety. I will host a few doggy play dates throughout the month. I am employed as a nurse PRN. With that being said, my schedule is as flexible and open as I intend for it to be. Potty and feeding times are considered when making my schedule for the day. Fur babies typically get let out Q4H. Dogs are not allowed free range. Pups are either let into fenced in backyard or dog park, or expand their horizons on an open field with 50 or 100-foot tethers to run around. Although their recall may be good with you, I want to ensure your babies come back to you the way you left them. I follow directions and your suggestions to the T. I take care of them the same way in which you'd take care of your babies.
“Brooke was so great with our dog Millie! Millie is shy but she warmed up to Brooke quickly. Brooke also sent me updates that were necessary while we were away. So glad we booked Brooke will be using her again in the future!”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I have worked with multiple dogs at the same time and understand the importance of patience, safety, exercise, feeding routines, and individual attention. I’m comfortable with large dogs, energetic dogs, senior dogs, and pets that may need extra patience while getting comfortable with a new person. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and treating each one with care and respect. My schedule is flexible, which gives me plenty of time to care for pets throughout the week. I can accommodate walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship at different times of the day. I’m also available on weekends and can adjust my schedule when needed. Safety and trust are very important to me. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, routines, medications, and house rules. I always keep pets supervised and pay attention to their behavior and comfort. In a client’s home, I respect their space and make sure their pet feels safe, relaxed, and cared for.
About: I have loved dogs since I was a child and have had them all growing up. Professionally I have worked at a overnight dog boarding kennel for two years! I work Monday through Friday with autistic children but I’m available before and after work as well as the whole weekends to take care of your pups! I love to take care of dogs in their own home so that they will feel more safe and secure in the safety of their own space!
About: We are located in Sandersville, GA I love all types of animals. It's my goal to see to your furbaby's needs so you can feel assured your baby is getting the attention and love they deserve. Once we connect I'll ask you to tell me what you prefer for your pet. Each furbaby has their own special needs and personality! No need to provide cookie cutter services, this is about you and your pet & making sure we're all a good fit! My yard is unfenced so we walk on a leash. There's plenty of play time inside & out. I have a chiweenie, Maui. Friendly and a bit shy but he always warms up. If you're looking for someone reliable & caring to look after your bestie, look no further! I work from home so your fur baby will get loads of love and attention, regular walks and play time, of course. I’ll send updates and pics every day. I have an open yard so we walk on a leash and we play with inside the house too. We play catch and tug-of-war and snuggles are abundant!
About: All my life I have grown up with cats and had one pet dog growing up. I have a dog now and 4 cats at home, so I am an animal lover at heart. I absolutely love dogs and kittens. Im a student and work at a retail store in the mornings, so I am available to sit, and walk in the afternoons and evenings. I have a two story house for them to roam, and a front yard to play in. I live in a gated community for us to go on walks.
About: I have been watching puppies for about four years now, my brother and his wife have had two puppies for about that long, and I play with them all the time. I give them baths, I give them treats, I absolutely adore them with all my heart, and I love them so much. Of course there are boundaries when it comes to them being bad or giving them treats! I am trying to find a side hustle to make a little bit extra money, and I absolutely adore animals, and my schedule is open all the time pretty much! most of the time I will go to my brother’s house and watch the dogs, or they’ll come to my parents, and I will still watch them! I will take them on walks play with them outside, anything.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 White Plains 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 White Plains 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 White Plains 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 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 .
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.
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.
