“Alex was amazing with Reggie! He is a pretty young and high energy husky so he can be a lot at times, but she made sure he got enough activity in and even offered to run with him! He was very happy and tired after her visits!”
“Emma was wonderful, she helped us for a last minute situation and even stayed longer when our appointment went long. This was for a pet and pet owners she’s never met before! So lucky for us to meet her. She’s super kind and flexible, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book her any time we need someone.”
“Andrea is always amazing! She shares great details on each walk, provides lots of photos and is always so charming. It’s so nice to have a dog walker we can really trust. We use her service every time we need the extra help!”
“I’ve had a great experience with Melissa. She is always reliable, takes excellent care of my dog, and gives me peace of mind when I’m away. One thing I especially appreciate is the number of photos she sends during walks and visits. It’s so nice to see updates and know my dog is happy and well cared for. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the pets she works with, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive dog walker.”
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.
About: I treat every pet like they’re my own. I naturally connect with animals, even the shy or anxious ones, because I’m calm, patient, and pay attention to their body language. Whether it’s high-energy play or quiet companionship, I adjust to what they need. I have experience with: • Senior pets (slow walks, meds, joint care) • Giving oral medications and maintaining routines • Creating a low-stress, loving environment while you’re away More than just walking or feeding, I focus on building trust so your pet feels safe, happy, and loved. You’ll always get updates and honest communication from me, so you can fully relax. As a nursing student with an active lifestyle, pet care is a grounding and joyful part of my week. Walks with dogs keep me moving, and quiet time with cats helps relieve stress from my studies. I’m organized, reliable, and love incorporating feeding, playtime, and even litter box duties into my routine. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it genuinely helps me recharge and stay balanced. I care for pets like they’re my own, whether I’m in my home or yours. For house sitting, I keep routines consistent—feeding, walks, meds, and lots of love—while also respecting and maintaining your space. During walks or drop-ins, I focus on quality time: bathroom breaks, play, meals, and anything your pet needs to feel secure and seen. For cats, I clean litter boxes daily, monitor their behavior, and offer attention on their terms—whether that’s play, cuddles, or quiet companionship. I always leave things clean, calm, and exactly how you left them. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out!
“I was so thankful Abbigail and Cody were able to pick up a week of dog walking at the last minute! Very responsive, reliable, and sweet to my Roxie - thank you so so much :)”
About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give every dog as if they were my own. I grew up with dogs, so being around them comes naturally to me, and I truly enjoy spending time with them. I also regularly care for my nephew (a high-energy Goldendoodle) and my niece (a small Papillon), so I’m comfortable handling both larger, active dogs and smaller breeds with different needs and personalities. I’m patient, attentive, and adaptable—whether your dog needs lots of playtime, structured routines, or a calm, gentle approach. Pet care fits easily into my routine. I work full-time, but I’m available after 5 PM on weekdays and fully available on weekends. I also work from home occasionally, which gives me extra flexibility for daytime care and check-ins. I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and on their normal routine in their own home. I follow all instructions closely—feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care—while giving them plenty of attention and affection. I adapt to each pet’s needs, whether they’re high-energy and need exercise or prefer a calm, relaxed visit.
“Myrical has been an excellent walker for my dog Cash. She is reliable and communicative, and it puts my mind at ease knowing that my pup is in good hands while I can’t be home.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was in middle school. Dogs always seem to love me and, even in my household growing up, I was always their favorite and who they depended on. I’m 6 foot and muscular so I’m especially good with big dogs but also love small ones. I’ve probably watched pit mixes the most though. All in all, your dog is in good hands. I have plenty of free time as I work on my own schedule. I give my own dog multiple walks and time for attention that a regular 9-5 wouldn’t permit. I have a small dog to keep your dog company. She doesn’t bite or bark. I stay on the backside of my apartment and the first floor so if they’re ever over, it’s quick and easy to take them out to use the restroom.
About: Your pet will not have to feel lonely or anxious if you hire me. Cats love to sit in my lap or lounge on my shoulder as I work on art commissions and dogs love that I go for walks and invite them to join. I also offer the following services for no additional charge when you book a weekend or more: plant care, porch and/or balcony sweeping, mail pick up/drop off, and grocery pick up.* (Any errand must be no more then a 5-20 min walk from the pet sitting location.) I am an artist who works on art commissions from home and while pet sitting. If you are looking for someone who will stay with your pet(s) the entire time you are away then you've found the right profile! I have a first come first serve policy so if you want the comfort of knowing you're trip dates are reserved with someone who has a record of never having to have canceled a booking then send me a message and let's lock in your dates! I also work in both Birmingham, AL. and Atlanta, GA. which means you can book me from either location as long as you contact me about the sitting at least 3 days in advance.
“Kahealani has been amazing with Deja these past few days. She truly cares about your dog and takes such great care of them. She’s also good at updating you about how your dog is doing. Her communication is 10/10! Will definitely be booking her again in the future!”
“Mary was phenomenal with Cavu! She was very accommodating to his needs and the communication was easy and consistent. Cavu can be a little particular and she handled him with patience and care. Would 100% book with her again and highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable sitter!”
“Rian came through last minute for me when I needed her and I am truly appreciative. She was very communicative, followed instructions and I would definitely hire her on a consistent basis”
About: I give dogs the time and attention they need to feel comfortable and safe in my care. I work with all types of dogs at a variety of different breeds and ages. I work completely remote, so I am available to house sit and stay with your dog any day of the week. I am happy to take your dogs on regular walks and to play with them when I have free time during my stays. I ensure that the dog feels comfortable by spending time with them and caring for them when they need it. I will feed dogs their meals promptly, take them on walks, and be loving and kind towards them.
About: I don’t ever remember a point in my life where I didn’t have an animal in my household to take care of. From multiple dogs, to multiple cat, guinea pigs, and gerbils! I have been trusted with pet sitting for friends and family since I was strong enough to handle a pulling dog on a leash. I have experience in training younger dogs and cats, and also providing special care for senior pets. I also have a sister who’s a veterinarian! So I definitely have a lot of information at my disposal ;) I am currently a full-time student working hard on my senior capstone! I have 6 classes each week Monday-Thursday that are 2.5 hours in duration. My class schedule changes every quarter year so reach out and I’ll let you know what times I’m available! Despite my work load, I will make sure I have time to watch over your baby and provide adequate care and attention :) While caring for a client’s pet, I usually familiarize myself with the home and what a typical routine is for the animal within the home. I am very careful when spending time in a clients home. I will make sure certain hazards are out of reach from their pet and everything stays how it was when I got there. I currently live in an apartment with one roommate, who also loves both dogs and cats. My apartment is pet friendly and they provide a fenced dog park and a standard park is currently being built and close to completion adjacent to my apartment building. I am also a 15 minute walk from piedmont!
“Hannah is an amazing dog walker. She has shown our dogs so much love and is incredibly consistent. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for any services for their pets.”
About: I have grown up with lots of different types of animals. From various sized dogs, cats, and outdoor animals. I have also house and animal sat for my family, friends, and co-workers. I am a college student looking for a flexible job. I have class and training Mon- Wed mornings but my schedule changes frequently and I am open to working around it to help meet clients needs. I am a very gentle and loving owner. I love to play with my animals and take them on walks around the neighborhood. I am very tentitive to individual needs of particular animals.
About: Lifelong cat owner with years of dog and cat sitting experience. Skilled in medication, walks, playtime, and overnight care, keeping pets happy, loved, and stress-free. I work full-time, but always will have plenty of time to love on your sweet pets whether it’s just for a walk or overnight care. I will always watch your pets in your home where they feel safe and comfortable. Since I have cats of my own, safety is the priority.

I had a great experience with Jewel! She was reliable, communicative, and took great care of Curry. I really appreciated the updates and photos during the walk, which gave me peace of mind knowing Curry was in good hands. I would definitely book with Jewel again and highly recommend to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and dependable!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Atlanta is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $33 per walk. On Rover, walkers 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 November 2026, there are 6,947 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Atlanta. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Atlanta. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Atlanta after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
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 walker 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.
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Atlanta. On Rover:
- 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers 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 walker.
