“Natalia came to check in on Stella while I was gone for the entire day, and she was amazing. She made sure to spend quality time with Stella and gave her plenty of attention. She even checked in with me to see if I needed her to come back again, which I really appreciated. And the photos she took are the cutest things!”
About: Animals have been a part of my family my entire life. I’ve had pets of all kinds, including senior animals, kittens, and physically disabled cats. Knowing how to care for animals of all kinds and needs has come naturally to me, and I additionally have a few animal/veterinary science classes under my belt from my time in high school FFA. I’m currently saving up for grad school (music major 🎶) and looking to have fun with animals along the way! I work remotely and on my own schedule so am very flexible for scheduling throughout the day. Occasionally I travel for music work but know these dates well in advance. Having worked in two pet boarding facilities, I know how to handle reactive or shy dogs both on walks and in the house, and will put safety first, for both the animals and myself.
“Clayton was an excellent sitter for Barkley and Bristol. My pups were very calm and content when I arrived home. Clayton was responsive, personable, and kept in touch on a regular basis while we were away. Highly recommended!”
“Irene always takes such wonderful care of my 2 labs. Having one senior dog and one that can be a bit feisty - she handled them both with no issues. Made me feel so at ease while we were away. She is so trusting and kind! Would highly recommend Irene!”
“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!”
“Elizabeth is an Angel! My Dominick is VERY stand “offish” with strangers - Elizabeth was never a stranger to him & he received tons of cuddles when I was out of the country. Fifty stars for Elizabeth!❤️”
“Brooke was great with my pup! To the point where I think she was expecting Brooke more so than us when we came home 😂. This was my first time using this service and I don’t feel like I could have picked a better person for this experience. Thank you so much Brooke!!”
About: Hi! I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. I grew up with Golden Retrievers & Maltese, which sparked my lifelong passion for caring for pets of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. Three years ago, I adopted my own puppy, Maisy, and she has completely changed my life by teaching me responsibility, compassion, routine, and the unconditional love of our animals. I am comfortable caring for pets of any size and age. My goal is to ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I'm happy to customize the experience to make you and your pet as comfortable as possible :) I recently graduated from dental school and am taking time off from May-July as I await my licensure. During this time, I'd love to spend time helping families with their pet care. After the summer, I will be available on most Fridays & weekends. Whether it's a daily walk, or boarding during your summer vacation, I'd love to help out as much as I can! I prefer to watch pets in my own home so that my dog, Maisy, has a playmate. Maisy attends daycare regularly and has become accustomed to playing with dogs of all different shapes & sizes - she is very friendly! However, I know this is not always the best/safest option, so I am happy to discuss alternative options that make you the most comfortable.
About: I have been trusted by friends and acquaintances on many occasions with their fur babies. I have walked, fed, and played with their pups while also keeping an eye on their behaviors. The dogs I cared for were seniors, so I’m experienced with giving medication when needed, and paying attention to any out of place behaviors. Although I don’t have many years of experience, I have been around dogs my entire life. I grew up with 5 family dogs, all with different personalities and priorities! I am currently attending GSU full-time, but I have a very open schedule. I can work any day of the week from 10am-8pm, but if you need different times I’m very flexible with my availability! I am not offering services in my home, but I am available to do drop byes to check on your babies! I will be keen on following any rules you give me whether that be keeping them in a certain area of your home, or being cautious of outside interference.
“I highly recommend Crystal for taking care of your pets. Crystal has taken care of our golden retriever and Balinese cat on two occasions. She has been very flexible with scheduling. Her communication is great and she sends pictures of our pets to give you the perfect sense of security that your pets are being well taken care of.”
“Crystal was so sweet, she was great at providing updates and pics, My fur babies really took to her. I have a little yorkie who is loving but a barker, she was able to soothe him and my usually elusive ragdoll cat seemed to make an appearance for her each visit. She was wonderful, I would definitely ask for her again!”
“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.”
About: I have experience with senior care, special needs, and puppies. Will administer medications, take to appointments, and provide opportunities for exercise, play, and one on one attention. My work schedule is flexible so I am able to provide pet care services during the week and weekends in the morning, afternoon and early evenings. Your Home- I can do periodic checks throughout out the day, outside walks, meal prep, play time, litter box cleaning, and bathroom breaks. My home- Not offered.
“Unity was wonderful and gave us updates and pictures with every visit. We even had a little ant problem and Unity took care of it for us. It really shows that Unity loves animals and they love her.”
“Allie did a great job taking care of my family. She sent lots of photos & was very communicative. I would definitely recommend her for pet sitting. I have some older pets that require special attention.”
“It was comforting knowing that someone will be checking on my cat. Of course she never came out but Savannah checked to make sure there was food eaten and litter box used. . o appreciated the followup.after each checkin.”
About: Have experience with all animals from dogs and cats to horses and chickens. I’ve raised my own dog since he was 6 weeks old but also have had several years experience taking care of senior pets. Can assist with animals requiring medication. I work full time but work close by so I can conveniently take care of local animals when needed. Available upon emergency and can let animals out during the day. I keep a large golden retriever at home so I typically request keeping animals at their own home. This keeps them comfortable and familiar with their own surroundings. My dog is my child so he is indoors and sleeps with me nightly.
About: With over 15 years of experience caring for pets, I’ve had the joy of looking after dogs and cats of all ages for neighbors, friends, and family. From playful puppies to senior companions, I’ve learned how to give each pet the attention, patience, and love they deserve. I’ve owned 5 dogs throughout my life and currently share my home with 3, so I truly understand the daily care, exercise, and affection our furry friends need. Walks, playtime, and keeping pets entertained are some of my favorite parts of the day. Whether your pet needs a long walk, or just a caring presence while you’re away, I’m committed to making them feel safe, happy, and loved. I currently work full time at Lola’s in downtown Roswell. My availability currently is in the morning M - W and Saturday. I am looking to change my work schedule to be more consistent to fit my clients needs. In my home and in my client’s home, I care for pets as if they were my own—making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow each pet’s routine closely, from feeding and walks to playtime and cuddle time, while giving them plenty of attention and affection

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Alpharetta
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!
Natalia came to check in on Stella while I was gone for the entire day, and she was amazing. She made sure to spend quality time with Stella and gave her plenty of attention. She even checked in with me to see if I needed her to come back again, which I really appreciated. And the photos she took are the cutest things!
Amari was an absolutely incredible pet sitter, and we could not be more grateful for the care she provided to our pets. From the very beginning, her communication was clear, timely, and reassuring. It was obvious that Amari genuinely loves animals and takes her responsibility seriously. All of our pets were happy, relaxed, and well cared for when we returned, which speaks volumes. Amari went above and beyond by providing regular updates and photos, giving us complete peace of mind while we were away. It truly felt like our pets were being cared for as if they were her own. We would recommend Amari without hesitation to anyone looking for a trustworthy, dependable, and compassionate pet sitter. We will absolutely be booking with her again!
Katherine was so fantastic with our dog Stuart. We left the country for 2 weeks and we were nervous about leaving him alone but Katherine was so amazing with him. She played frisbee with him twice daily and provided some fantastic photos. Communication was amazing and she looked after Stuart for an additional day because our flights got delayed. We felt at ease knowing he was being looked after so lovingly. We will definitely be using Katherine again. I highly, highly recommend her! I honestly think she and our dog formed a special bond together 😃
Nuri went above and beyond with our dogs! She is professional, trustworthy, and truly takes her job seriously. Her genuine care and affection for our dogs was clear from the start. She kept us well-informed with regular updates, messages, and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. We couldn’t have asked for a better caregiver!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Alpharetta stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Alpharetta 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
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 Alpharetta with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
