“Michelle was awesome! She came over to meet our dog beforehand to make sure our dog was comfortable with her. Our dog warmed up to her immediately. Michelle was super communicative and she really helped us out when we needed care for our dog at the last minute. Highly recommend!”
“Jeremiah was fantastic! He took great care of our crazy lab and two cats lol! He was very communicative and made sure to reach out promptly if any questions came up. He also was flexible, which was great for us. I know our pets were well taken care of. I 100% recommend!”
About: Your pet’s favorite relative! 🫂🐶 Premium care for your fur children🐾 Dog Boarding | Walking | House Check-ups Reliable | Attentive | Trusted Providing stimulation throughout the day with active play time, routine walks through the city and parks. Your pet will accept me as apart of the family! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work on a project basis with local nonprofits in Atlanta, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time at home. On most days, pets join me for morning walks between 6–8am, followed by feeding and a relaxed environment while I work from home. Walks and check-ins typically occur 2–3 times throughout the day, along with playtime and attention. On days I’m on-site for a project, I maintain the same morning routine before leaving and can return midday for a walk or check-in if needed, with evenings fully dedicated to pet care. 🐾 I provide a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment tailored to each pet’s routine. In my home, pets can roam freely, relax on furniture, and enjoy regular walks, playtime, and attention. Crating is only used if part of their normal routine. For in-home visits, I follow all care instructions closely and respect your space to ensure your pet stays comfortable and stress-free. 🐾
“Ebani was very helpful with our fur baby. It was our first time using Rover and she made it very comfortable the entire process. She took time out of her day prior to her scheduled sitting to you meet with us and meeting our Charlie because that’s what made me feel most comfortable. Ebani updated us each visit with Charlie and included pictures which brought peace of mind throughout this process. Even when severe weather threatened delays in our return home, Ebani was very accommodating for a possible change in schedule. She was very helpful and professional. I would definitely book with Ebani again.”
“What can I say?!? Tristan was professional, prompt and honestly a better than expected. I was concerned because it was my first time using the service let alone leaving my sick dog with someone in my home while I traveled for work, but Tristan was communicative and consistent. If I could give him 6 stars I would!”
About: Hey 👋 I’m Sienna, a 22-year-old student at Georgia State University originally from Ireland, and one of the things I've missed most since moving to Atlanta is being around animals. Back home, I have a dog named Roxi who I absolutely adore, so I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you trust. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you're away. I'm reliable, responsive, and committed to keeping owners updated with photos and messages throughout each visit or stay. As a student with a flexible schedule, I can provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and companionship. My goal is simple: to make sure your pet is happy and that you have complete peace of mind. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine. As a student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time and attention to each pet I care for. Whether it's walks, drop-in visits, daycare, or boarding, I make sure pets get the exercise, companionship, and care they need.I enjoy staying active, being outdoors, and spending time with animals, so pet care feels like a natural part of my day rather than a task. I also prioritize communication and keeping owners updated so they can feel confident their pet is in good hands. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, my priority is making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any specific instructions from the owner. For walks and drop-in visits, I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, fresh water, and companionship. For boarding and daycare, I provide a calm, pet-friendly environment with regular walks, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. I know how important consistency is for pets, so I do my best to keep their routine as normal as possible. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages, so they can relax knowing their pet is in good hands.
“Kamron was great - very communicative and sent me timely updates on both kitties. Lots of pictures (which are always appreciated) and I could tell our friendlier cat was happy to spend time with them. Will definitely book with Kamron again in the future, if available!”
About: I grew up with Great Pyrenees, so I’m very used to stubborn, large dogs. I’m moderately comfortable with leash-reactive dogs, so feel free to reach out to discuss your situation. I’m a student with a flexible schedule, so if I get enough notice I can work around your needs! I like to spend some time at home each week, but I’m able to house-sit within reason. I like to leave places neater than I found them, so I will do home maintenance tasks within reason. I’m happy to follow requests to make sure your home stays in one piece while you’re away.
“Tailai was super sweet and very easy to communicate with. She took excellent care of my cat and you can tell she truly cares! She made sure to keep me updated with pictures and videos. Highly recommend!”
About: As a devoted dog owner of 6+ years, I treat every pup like my own. My dog Noah taught me patience, love, and genuine care. I create a calm, joyful environment where each dog feels safe, understood, and truly loved. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or cuddles — your pet’s happiness and comfort always come first. 🐾 Pet care fits perfectly into my daily and weekly routine — it’s something I look forward to, not something I squeeze in. I structure my days around making sure dogs get the love, attention, and exercise they deserve. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday drop-ins, or weekend stays, I keep my schedule flexible to match your pet’s needs. I create a safe, loving environment where every dog feels understood and protected. With patience, structure, and genuine care, your pup experiences comfort, trust, and happiness every time. 🐾
“Nashely took perfect care of our two kitties on short notice. She was very communicative and professional, and she took the best pictures during her check-ins that really put my pet-parent heart and mind at ease.”
About: I’ve cared for animals most my life. I grew up with lots of dogs and cats around, in home and out of home. In that time, any fury friend became a buddy of mine! Whether it be for cuddles and play or calm slow times with patience and care. I would love to offer any assistance to you all and your dear pets! I work at a salon in East Atlanta from 1:00pm-6:30pm. I’d love to help out pet families before then, 6am-12pm. I’ll follow what ever the client requests, if there are any. But mandatory would be potty break, moving to water and food if it’s time. Give some good pats and scratches, then lock up the house and be on my way.
“At risk of sounding redundant, Toney truly goes above and beyond! He brought treats and toys for my cats and asked thorough questions at the meet and greet to make sure he got everything. Would highly recommend and will definitely book again!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life—from growing up with a black lab to raising two cats during college and early adulthood. I’m the first person my sisters call to watch their golden doodle and rescue mutt, and I regularly help train my friend’s goldendoodle in Miami. His sister, a vet, taught me hands-on dog care and training techniques I still use today. My uncle, a dog lover and owner of three Scenthound locations, also trusts me to care for his pup. Whether I’m walking on the Atlanta Beltline or relaxing at home, animals gravitate toward my calm, playful energy. I truly love cats and dogs equally—and I’ve even bird-sat! Your pet will be treated like family. I’m available most days and weekends for pet care, with the exception of Wednesday afternoons and Monday/Thursday mornings before 10 a.m. Pets easily fit into my daily routine! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I prioritize safety, comfort, and routine. I follow all feeding, medication, and exercise instructions closely, and I give pets the space they need to feel secure. I keep a calm, clean environment, and I always treat your home—and your pet—with respect and care. Trust and consistency are key, and I’m happy to send updates so you always feel connected while you’re away.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for the past 3 years for family, friends, and neighbors. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, giving fresh water, and making sure dogs feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I know every dog has a different personality and routine, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable and cared for. I’m patient, dependable, and treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing your dog is in good hands. I’m a full-time college student with a consistent class schedule, which allows me to plan pet care around my day. I’m available before and after classes on most weekdays, have open availability on Fridays, and can also provide care on weekends. I always make time for walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and updates, so your dog receives reliable care and plenty of attention. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll follow your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if applicable), and any routines your dog is used to.

About: Hi :)) I love exercising and being outdoors and nothing is better than doing that with a dog! I love walking and taking care of dogs and I have plenty of experience with dogs (young and old), their dietary needs, exercise/physical concerns, and making sure that their overall wellbeing is taken care of and adored :)) Looking forward to meeting you and your fur babies!! I am certified in Cat and Dog First Aid from the American Red Cross. I graduated from UGA with an Economics degree and am currently in school part time (again :(( lol), as well as studying for my CPA exams, so I have a very flexible schedule! I typically exercise early, it could be very early (6am) to 2:00pm in the evening, so I am very open between those times any day of the week to take care of your pet(s) :)) Later evenings are perfectly fine as well! Please let me know what you would like for me to do for your dog (pets), their dietary and exercise/physical needs, and if house sitting along with your pet, what I need to do specifically for your household to ensure a smooth experience! I am more than willing to accommodate and want to make sure everyone is happy and healthy!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Atlanta
Vivian was absolutely wonderful! She took great care of my dog while I was out of town this weekend and gave me peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. She was dependable, attentive, and genuinely caring. It’s always a relief to find someone you can trust with your fur baby, and Vivian made the entire experience stress-free. I truly appreciate her help and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!
Karina takes great care of Harold, our beloved French Bulldog. Harold cozied up to her immediately, and Karina returned the favor. Karina was very resourceful and patient when our pool person locked her out. She stayed the course, communicated very well, and always prioritized Harold’s wellbeing. Highly recommend!
Jacquelyn did drop in visits with my pug for 3 days while I was in Atlanta for a conference. She is extremely reliable and responsible and my pug, Moki, just adored her! They went on walking adventures and I got the cutest pics and updates. I wish Jacquelyn lived closer as she would be my number one choice for a pet sitter! I highly recommend!!! And Moki does too. :)
Amy did an A+ job!! Not only did she step up & help with my very last minute request, but she was extra kind, receptive, nonjudgmental, & so easy to work with. She was timely & stayed the entire 30 mins. My dog is also extraordinarily shy, & Amy still managed to comfort her & give her some head scratches. I def recommend her services, & especially for a first time Rover experience.
Meredith was 10/10. Not only she did do a fantastic job checking in and feeding my dog for three days, she even came by a week before to meet my dog to meet my dog! I also loved her reports cards. They were highly detailed and so sweet. I would use Meredith again.
I was absolutely blown away by Traci and the experience she provided. Before I ever even paid her, she came by early before I went out of town to meet the dogs. She was so kind, thoughtful and meticulous about caring for them. She went out of her way at every opportunity to provide my dogs with comfort and love. She cleaned up one of my poms after a poop break, she hand fed the other who was too nervous to eat her food the first night, and she sent the best pictures/videos/updates on the dogs. It really helped me while I had to be away from them. 13/10 experience and would never want to book anyone else but her.
Hayley is amazing! Our pets absolutely love her and she did such a great job taking care of them during our long trip. It was so nice to be able to go on vacation and not stress so much about our pets knowing that Hayley has everything under control. We highly recommend Hayley to anyone who needs a trustworthy, reliable, and caring person to look after their pets.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Atlanta is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $33 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 7,042 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Atlanta. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Atlanta 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 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.
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 Atlanta with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Atlanta. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
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.
