“We had a wonderful experience with Nicole. She boarded our pup in her home for the last 3 days, and he came back happy, relaxed and nice and tired. It’s clear he was well cared for and had a great time. We really appreciate the love and attention she gave him. We would absolutely recommend her and would book with her again!”
“River is our first pet . Anna and family are awesome I have no words to say more than thanks for taking care of our 6 months old kitten . She shared all the updates along with pics and her activities at home . Definitely I am going take Anna help again and again .”
“I just left Mr Pillow with Michael and his wife Harley for one night in preparation for a longer boarding trip in a few days just to make sure Mr Pillow would be happy and comfortable when we are gone. I mostly communicated with Harley and really liked the whole process of first visiting their house for an intro visit, which Mr Pillow loved, then the great communication throughout Mr Pillow’s stay. I got lots of videos and photos so that helps calm my anxious mind and whenever I had questions, Harley and Michael responded on Rover app very quickly. When I picked Mr Pillow up, he actually wanted to stay more, so I am bringing him back this Friday when my family goes out of the country.”
“Oh my goodness... I was so afraid to leave my fur baby who is epileptic. Alicia from the start communicated perfectly with pics and updates. Onyx looked so happy while out playing and being with other dogs. I will use her again and she really was accommodating to any need we had. This was soooo much better than a boarding facility. He came home happy and calm!”
“Alfonso took wonderful care of Penny! He kept us updated with photos throughout her stay, which gave me great peace of mind. Penny was happy and well cared for, and I’ll definitely book with Alfonso again. Highly recommend!”
“Morgan was fantastic with my two pups! She sent the most amazing photos and lovely daily updates that kept me at ease the whole time. Both dogs were happy, healthy, and clean at pickup, and you could tell they were well loved. I recommend her 100%!”
“Chrissy is just wonderful! She’s attentive and patient and sends lots of pictures! Our Zuko is pretty anxious and anti social but she made him feel right at home. She was super flexible with us when our flight was cancelled and we had to extend a day. We highly recommend Chrissy!!”
“This was a somewhat last-minute request, and I truly lucked out with Cynthia! She made Xavier feel welcome from the moment we walked through the door. She sent multiple updates each day, which gave me so much peace of mind, and it was obvious that Xavier had an absolute blast during his stay. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend Cynthia to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter!”
“Xiuzhen is amazing and took wonderful care of our dog! She walked our dog several times a day, and our pup came home happy and well cared for. Highly recommend Xiuzhen to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter!”
“Peyton is awesome! She took great care of our cocker spaniel on short notice. He was very happy at her house. She sent me photos every day. She is very reliable and responds quickly to request. I would definitely recommend her if you are looking for a nice place to leave your doggies!”
“Great communication and flexible. Loved receiving several pictures and updates during our pup's stay. Only downside is he came back with dirty pups — but at least that means he played outside!”
“Brooke needs beyond 5 stars, definitely need to add more to the review page. She was absolutely amazing. I’m speechless. She treated Ziggy as if he was her own. Upon meeting her and dropping him off, he didn’t even recognize us leaving, it was like he already knew her and Pumpkin.I will definitely use her over and over again. I’m so happy I found her on the Rover site. Thank you again Brooke and Pumpkin for treating him like family.”
About: Hi! My name is Zaniah (Zuh-Nye-Uh). I work from home in the tech industry, and have a very active lifestyle. I’ve owned animals my entire life and have several years of experience fostering and pet-sitting dogs/cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities (including reactive). I’m comfortable caring for all breeds. I live in an apartment complex on the Chattahoochee River that has plenty of trails, access to the river and a dog park. Though I don’t have pets of my own, I love having the opportunity through pet sitting and fostering. I mostly do this for fun and supplemental income in my free time so I am flexible on cost and cancellation. Your pet will be treated like family while they’re with me! You can trust I will be reliable with communication, sending photos, and creating an stress-free environment. For Example: - 30 minute dog walks include a fun stroll around your neighborhood or a nearby trail to give your pup the exercise and stimulation they need. - 30 minute drop-ins include potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and of course many snuggles! - My house sitting service includes staying overnight with your pet so they have company and comfort in their own home, along with daytime care every 4-6 hours for potty breaks, meals, playtime and cuddles. Feel free to reach out anytime as I am a quick responder. I currently work from home full-time and I’m available for drop ins or house sittings when needed! I am also flexible and can accept last-minute bookings. I’m happy to care for pets in my home as long as they’re potty trained. When in your home, I would love to take your fur babies for walks, to dog parks, anything you already do to make them the most comfortable! I’ll follow their usual routine and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and cuddles!
“Christin was amazing! Our dog has general anxiety as well as separation anxiety and is a high energy dog. She catered to our dog to make sure she got exercise and walks. She was very responsive and sent picture and video updates. Would highly recommend”
“Very professional. I was very happy she wanted a meet and greet first. Just felt relieved to leave our dog with Angie as she made me feel comfortable. Overall I was very pleased and will be definitely using her services again. Highly recommend!!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Alpharetta
Pedro was so great with Oliver! I love that Oliver had structured freedom and a big back yard to play in. Pedro is super nice and sent pics or videos almost daily and even helped re-train him to potty outside when he got confused being at a new house. Oliver and Bella, his dog hit it off after a few days and ended up sharing the same crate by the end. I will definitely use Pedro again. Thank you for taking such good care of Oliver while I was away!
Stacie was amazing! I took a last minute trip and wasn’t able to bring my dog. She accepted my request with ease the night before I had to leave out. She was very responsive and sent daily updates (photos and videos). She also gave him a bath before I picked him up. My dog seemed to really enjoy his time her and I’d definitely use her again!
Sara has taken wonderful care of our older dog Bucky in two occasions in the past year. She administered his meds, brushed his teeth, fed him according to my instructions, and sent frequent updates with photos and videos. Bucky did not want to leave her house, and clearly felt like he was always at home with her. She was also very flexible about pick up time when we returned from our trip the weekend of the ice storm. We will always book with Sara in the future now that our dog has a second home!

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in Alpharetta can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Alpharetta home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Alpharetta.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Alpharetta. 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.
You and your Alpharetta sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in GA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
