About: My goal as your pet’s sitter is to maximize my time with them by being attentive to and anticipate your fur baby’s needs while their person is away. Growing up, I always loved animals and took care of hamsters, cats, and dogs. I am gentle and loving while allowing the animal to take the lead with contact. I always respect animals’ autonomy and will always strive to make them feel comfortable and safe. I am available to become your regular go-to sitter or a helping hand when you need one on occasion! My schedule is flexible and can accommodate your pet’s care as you need it to! Your furry family members are my top priority as you are away. I will ensure your pet sticks to their routine as you dictate it and feels comfortable despite your absence. Additionally, I will make sure to spend quality time with your pets so they don’t feel too emotionally distressed while their person is away.

About: Let me care for your pup like he or she was my own :) I have been taking care of neighbors' dogs for years and have provided hours of volunteer service at animal shelters. I would love to take care of your furry friend! If your dog has any special needs, I can help administer: -Special diets -Meds -Exercise regiments Please feel free to contact me with any questions about my services, or to schedule a doggie meet and greet Why I love dog sitting I've been a dog lover since I was a kid. Although I didn't grow up with a dog in the house, I always gravitated toward my neighbors' and friends' dogs and cared many of them during vacations. My love for dogs led me to volunteer service at animal shelters during my free time. I would play with them, take them for walks and talk to people about adoption. Thoroughly rewarding experience and helped me get my fix for dogs! When I finally adopted my dog Prima, happiness ensued. My pup is sincerely my best friend and we hang out together all the time. Yet, I still have a hankerin for more dogs! More furry guys running around my house, please! While I'm not ready to adopt another dog yet, I see Rover.com as a great service allowing me to interact with dogs and provide the care I know is vital to each dogs' parents! My experience administering medication Sure! Just tell me the schedule and the best way to get your dog to take their meds. I'm happy to help keep your dog healthy and Pet care is part of my daily routine since I have a 15.5 yr old dog named Prima. I take her on multiple walks a day and feed her before I feed myself. I care for pets in my home by making sure they're well-fed, comfortable, and happy. This includes play time with toys, treats, and of course walks and/or time in the backyard

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 have hands-on experience with puppy care, having raised my own dog from the age of three months. I provided consistent potty training with frequent breaks throughout the day and night, and successfully taught both verbal and visual commands such as “no,” “stay,” and “this way,” along with fun tricks like “roll over.” My dog is a picky eater, so I’ve learned to encourage healthy eating habits through tailored meal adjustments and regular exercise. In addition to caring for my own dog, I’ve boarded multiple family pets, including hosting up to 2 additional toy dogs in my apartment at once. I’m comfortable walking all three dogs together and managing their individual feeding routines. I also have experience walking and feeding dogs and cats for friends. I’m able to travel to their homes, follow detailed care instructions, and ensure their pets are well cared for in their absence. I am currently available and flexible throughout the week for drop-in visits and dog walks. Feel free to message me with any questions. Thanks! When visiting your home, I’ll follow your detailed instructions to ensure both you and your pet's needs are met. I also enjoy sending photo updates for real-time peace of mind.

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!

About: As a dedicated dog sitter, I bring a unique blend of experience and skills that truly sets me apart. Not only do I provide safe and loving environment for your furry friend, but I also have training in puppy development and senior care. Whether it’s teaching basic commands to your energetic puppy or providing gentle care for your senior pet with special needs, I tailor my approach to meet each dog’s individual requirements. Plus, my background in canine behavior helps me identify and address any behavioral issues that may arise, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable stay for your beloved companion. Your dog will receive not just care, but also engaging activities and personalized attention that enrich their experience while you're away! I integrate pet care into my daily routine by establishing a structured schedule that includes feeding walking, playtime, and rest. Each day starts with checking in on the pets' needs, ensuring they're fed and have fresh water. Regular walks help keep them physically active and mentally stimulated. I also set aside specific times for interactive play and training sessions, which provide mental challenges and strengthen our bond. Weekly, I ensure that any grooming, vet visits, or special activities are planned so every pet gets the attention and care they need. Flexibility is key, as I adjust my routine based on the unique needs of each pet! In my role, I tailor pet care to the specific needs of each pet and their home environment. Whether I'm providing dog walking, pet sitting, or boarding, I strive to create a comfortable and loving atmosphere. For dog walking, I ensure they get plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and social interaction with other if they enjoy that. For pet sitting, I keep to their regular feeding and play schedules, while also providing companionship to reduce anxiety. When it comes to boarding, I maintain a safe and fun space, allowing for playtime, training, and quiet relaxation based on the pet's personality. I also make sure to communicate regularly with pet owners, providing updates and photos to keep them in the loop. Every pet is unique, so I adjust my approach accordingly!

About: Hi! I would love to take care of your furry friend!! I’ve had the experience of caring for a large dog for the past 13 years, so I understand the commitment, consistency, and attention that goes into caring for a pet. I often volunteer to watch neighbors dogs while they are away, and am able to anticipate the pets’ needs very well. I’m very comfortable sticking to established routines, including regular walks, feeding schedules, and medications. I know how important it is for pets to have consistency, especially when their owners are away! I’m also a huge animal lover and am happy to give your pet as much attention, playtime, and affection as they need! Whether your pet loves long walks and playing or would rather curl up next to me for some company, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I also have experience with dogs who experience anxiety and understand the importance of being patient, calm, and attentive to their individual needs. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s personality, routines, and comfort level so they feel as safe and relaxed as possible. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority, and I’ll treat them with the same care and attention I’d want for my own. I’m happy to follow detailed instructions and keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away! 🐶❤️ I have a hybrid working schedule, and flexible in-office days! I can spend all day with your pet Friday - Monday when I work remote. On Tuesdays-thursdays, I can check in with your pet in the mornings and evenings, and leave work once or twice during the day to spend time with them as well! My office is flexible enough for me to leave a couple times during the day if needed. I live in an apartment so I’m not offering boarding. But I am a respectful houseguest and will ensure the safety of your pet and your home, whether it is a drop in or a full stay!

About: I am a life long pet lover! Although I never had the joy of having my own dog, I have had several years of experience with caring for neighbors and friends dogs. Whether it’s going on long walks, playing fetch, or just giving them comfort and companionship while you’re away, I treat every dog like they’re my own. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust, and I’m committed to creating a safe, fun, and loving environment for your furry family member! With being a cat mom, pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine. Making time for walks, feedings, playtime, or check-ins is something I prioritize and enjoy. Whether it’s starting my day with a morning walk or fitting in drop-in visits mid-day or evening, I will make sure each pet gets the time, attention, and care they deserve. Since I already care for my own pet, integrating others into my routine feels easy and meaningful — I love making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I have a full-time job with a hybrid schedule, I am pretty flexible on my days working from home but typically prioritize going for walks everyday. As a cat parent myself, I understand how important it is to keep pets comfortable, loved, and on their routine—especially when their humans are away. I’ve been caring for my own cat for over 3½ years, making sure he has a consistent feeding schedule, fresh water, playtime, and a clean space. When caring for your pets, I’ll bring that same level of attention, respect, and love. It is important to understand and respect your pets routine and needs to make your pet feel safe and cared for in their familiar environment. Whether your cat or dog is playful, shy, or a little particular, I’ll take the time to get to know them and make sure they feel comfortable while you’re away!

walkers on Rover set their own , 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.
