“Stacy was so great. Came to meet and greet us, made my Ever feel safe and at home, and I was so comfortable knowing she was in Stacy’s care. Will definitely be reaching out again!”

About: I've had dogs my entire life and have been a proud cat owner for the past year and a half, so caring for animals has always been a big part of who I am. What sets me apart is the genuine love, patience, and attention I give every pet. I know that every animal has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, and I take the time to get to know them so they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I'm reliable, detail-oriented, and committed to keeping you updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having a calm companion, I'm happy to provide the care they need. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I work full-time, but I make pet care a priority! I'm available before and after work, can stop by during my lunch break for visits or walks when needed, and have much more flexibility on weekends. I'll always do my best to accommodate your pet's schedule and keep their routine consistent. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or yours, my goal is to keep them comfortable by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, always have fresh water, and have a clean, safe environment. For cats, I keep litter boxes clean and tidy, and I understand how important a clean space is for their comfort and well-being. I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own.
“Kate is the best cat sitter ever. I had a cat who I was certain was going to hide the entire time and he very quickly felt comfortable enough with her hang out with her same as he would me. It made my trip so much less stressful knowing my cats trusted her and she definitely took the time to get to know each cat personally and build that trust! She provides exceptional care- I have a cat with asthma and high blood pressure and she was able to give him him medication perfectly for both, recognize when he might need the inhaler, give him the inhaler and then note back to him when his symptoms improved! Absolutely loved the level of detail she provided in all visitation notes and she provided amazing pictures of the cats playing and eating and cuddling with her which made me so happy to see.”
“Liam was great! He came over twice a day to feed and medicate our two cats. They have very different but picky personalities, and he did great with both of them by taking his lead from them. He even saved one of them when they got themselves stuck under the bed! Liam was communicative and took plenty of pictures. Highly recommend!”
“Jeremy has always done a great job in watching our senior dog. He sends detail updates and pictures. He gives our dog his medicine that he needs and plenty of treats. Also, Jeremy gives our dog plenty of belly rubs which our dog loves. He clearly has a genuine love for dogs.”
“Sariah is the absolute best! She has handled our rambunctious puppy, Scout, with the utmost patience and care. Sariah provides frequent photos and updates of Scout which we greatly appreciate; it is extremely comforting knowing Scout is in good hands when we are not around! We highly recommend Sariah as a loving and dedicated caretaker for any puppy/dog!”
“Elizabeth helped me out last minute when in a bind for a drop in visit for my two pups on a holiday weekend. She was trustworthy, communicative, and SO great with Moose and Milly. I'll definitely be booking with her again in the near future.”
About: I have lived in a home with 1-2 dogs at a time for most of my life, starting when I was in preschool. Almost all of my friends and family have either dogs or cats, sometimes both, and I have also done a lot of pet sitting for them over the years. I have experience with large and small dog breeds, a few different cat breeds, and also some experience with farm animals. I do my best to stick to any routines or training, either actively ongoing or already in place, so knowing any pet’s specific command words or motions is helpful. I also have experience with almost all stages of life, other than fresh newborn baby dogs to eight weeks of age. I love animals, and treat each one under my care in any situation as if they were my own. My current schedule is fairly open as I am taking some online classes while I pivot in my career, so there is plenty of time for your fur babies to be loved on. My daily routine is fairly flexible and can be adjusted around a pet’s schedule who is under my care. My priority is the safety and care of your pet and your home. I am extremely respectful of people’s privacy and property so there would be no snooping, nor any crazy messes left behind. There would also be no one brought into your home not cleared to be there. House rules will be respected- like no dogs on the couch, no cats on the counter, don’t feed gremlins after midnight etc. I clean up after myself, bring my own food/snacks for overnights, and make sure the home is locked up tight whether or not I am there. I can care for plants as well- but need specifics as I do not have a green thumb. If your pet is used to having company almost 24/7, I will do my best to accommodate that. I am happy to sit curled up with your dog or cat and read or do my course work throughout the day/ night and have no problems co sleeping with your pet if they’re used to sleeping in bed with you. If they’re used to sleeping in their crate, that is easily doable as well.
About: I have over 10 years of experience with taking care of pets! I’m experienced in pet sitting, housesitting, and everything in-between! I’ve taken care of pets of all ages, from puppies and kittens to seniors. I’m currently working part-time so I am able to be with your pet almost all day, keeping them company while you’re gone! I would also be able to give frequent walks and potty breaks, if needed. If your pet enjoys walks, I would love to take them on an adventure, and if not, I love relaxing at home too! I have experience with crate-trained dogs as well, if needed. My number one priority is making sure your pet is safe and relaxed while you’re away.
About: I frequently dog sit for coworkers, as I’m a teacher and we have frequent school breaks. I rarely travel, so I have breaks off work and a lot of flexible, so I’m always happy to help out! I have experience of all sizes of dogs as well as administering medications to elderly dogs. I am mostly looking for jobs on the weekends or days when I only work 7am-3pm! Depending on the type of situation, I may be able to be even more flexible than that. I highly believe the animal should have a stress free experience while their owner is away, and continue the routine as normal as I possibly can to ensure the health and happiness of the animal always comes first!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Alpharetta
Anna was AWESOME! She did drop-in visits for our 2 mini bernedoodles and they absolutely loved her. She went above and beyond to make sure our pups were comfortable and well taken care of while we were on vacation. She is truly a dog whisperer, providing many photos and videos every time she dropped in showing how much fun the dogs were having with her. We had so much peace of mind knowing our pups were so well taken care of. Thank you, Anna!
Working with Sakinah was a pleasure. She was easy to communicate with and I felt very safe and comfortable trusting my dog with her. Even better is I was in a pinch needing a 2pm dog walker on a Saturday and she was the only one available which was even more gold to me. She also kept me updated on the visit. I highly recommend her! Will be using her in the future!

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.
