“100/10 would recommend!!! Requested a last min booking due to cxl and Megan came through with the save. She took great care of my little fur ball, Sadie!! Thanks 😊”
“They were very quick to respond and did a fantastic job with my two cats. They also provided beautiful pictures! Thank you so much! I would definitely book again!”
“Sergio did such a great job checking in on Holly this weekend! She’s an anxious cat, but she warmed up to him quickly. He kept me updated and made sure she was well cared for. I’d definitely book him again!”
“Andrea was very communicative and receptive from the start. She took lots of pictures and her notes were top notch. It’s always soothing as a pet owner to see the notes reflect behavior you recognize in your cats (this one was food-obsessed, this one couldn’t get enough cuddles, etc). Pet emoji game is on point! ?”
“I would definitely recommend Shanese to any pet owners who need care for their dog! I went away out of the country and got updates all throughout the trip which was comforting. She also bonded with my pet which is awesome because my dog is nervous and a bit stand-offish with new people and a pretty good judge of character when somethin isnt right! Lol So the fact that she warmed up to Shanese says a lot as well. I also came home to a full bowl of food and a big bag of treats she bought for her. Thank you for taking care of my Princess! ❤”
“Grateful for her attention to detail and dedication. She did 3 check-ins and my dogs were well care for! At first my youngest fur baby was being difficult and Cori Lynn had to over stay beyond the agreed time - handled it like a pro and was very patient during a stressful situation. Grateful for her responsiveness and overall professionalism!”
About: I'm 41 and have had dogs my whole life. I often receive compliments about how well trained my dogs are which takes patience and repetition. I believe in the enrichment that letting them sniff provides and I always have time to toss the ball. I'm currently taking the rest of the year off from work as I transition careers so I have a plethora of time. I go on multiple 2 hour walks a day training for adventures in the upcoming year and figure I might as well include a cute companion that needs to get out for some fresh air. Each dog is different just like people so accommodating to their needs and personality is important. Whether it's gently tossing or rolling a ball for an older dog or taking the hyperactive youngen for 5 miles.
About: I have a gentle, calm, and loving energy that dogs respond well too. It’s important to me that they feel loved and cared for in your absence. I don’t skimp on cuddles and play-time. I’m happy to provide updates, photos, anything you may need to ensure your dogs well-being and safety. Currently, I attend classes online and have a very flexible schedule. I’m available morning and night, Mon - Sat for walks and in house visits. I am very respectful of your home and property. I make sure to clean-up after myself and any messes your pet might make in your absence.
About: With over 10 years of experience caring for dogs, I offer dedicated and compassionate pet sitting services. I am well-versed in feeding schedules, administering medications, and providing plenty of exercise and playtime. Your pet's happiness and well-being are my top priorities, ensuring they feel loved and comfortable while you're away. I work full-time with a hybrid schedule, allowing me plenty of downtime to care for your pet, ensuring they receive ample attention and love. n In your home, I care for pets by following their established routines to minimize stress. I provide regular feeding, fresh water, exercise, playtime, and any necessary medications. I ensure a clean and safe environment, give plenty of affection, and maintain open communication with you for updates and any concerns.
About: I’ve been around dogs and caring for them since I was 10. I have experience with small to large dogs and dogs of any age. I also have experience with giving medication if needed or accommodating to any of your baby’s needs. I am also extremely flexible and will gladly take your dog to a park to release some energy or chill on the sofa! I have short classes about once or twice a day, so I won’t be out of the house for more than 2 hours at a time. I do not have other pets in the home. I have roommates who are both extremely comfortable around dogs, but they will mostly stay around me. I do not have carpeted floors so cleaning up is easier if needed.
“Bryan has been such an amazing pet sitter for our cat Amy! New to town, it’s been hard finding pet care, but Bryan showed the utmost care and interest in learning as much as possible to best care for Amy on his drop-ins. He is communicative and you can tell shares a real passion and love for animals making us feel at ease. Our Amy is shy, and after his second visit was ready to get to know Bryan.”
“Coleman has done a good job of checking in on my cat while I’m away. He follows all instructions and will ask questions if anything is unclear. I’ve returned home from traveling with no issues”
About: Animals have been a big part of my life since I was born, especially dogs. I have taken care of all kinds through ownership, babysitting, and volunteering at shelters. I have a degree in natural science with a focus on animal behavior and I have plenty of experience working with anxious dogs, rescues, and dogs with long term injury. I have a very flexible job and I can work from home 2 days a week without issues. I can work from home more days if I give notice, and I am off on weekends, so I have a very open and flexible schedule to be there for your dog. We live in a complex with plenty of outside space to walk your dog or take them out to potty. There are no stairs in the unit, so there won’t be any strain on a dog’s legs. We have cats that will be around to keep us company as well. There are a couple fenced in sections of the complex where your dog can run around freely as well.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs on and off for the past four years through friends, family, and neighbors. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m reliable, attentive, and happy to follow each pet’s routine, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, administering basic medications if instructed, or simply providing companionship. I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I’m currently working part-time while attending graduate school, which gives me flexibility to provide reliable pet care throughout the week. I make time for walks, playtime, feedings, and lots of attention, and I’ll always communicate with you to ensure your pet’s routine is maintained. I always follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walking routines, medication (if needed), and any house rules. I take time to earn each pet’s trust, provide plenty of love and attention, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.
“I can not say enough good things about Mary! I had an emergency situation, and Mary was able to drop in at a last-minute notice and did a fabulous job of keeping me in the loop. My cat loved her, and I will be booking her in the future.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Atlanta
Misty was great! She took great care of Diesel. She is super attentive and sends lots of pictures and updates. Diesel can be shy but he warmed up to her quick. This was our first time using Rover and we absolutely loved our experience with Misty. We will definitely rebook with her!
Meredith was the absolute best taking care of our sweet kitty girl, muffin! She followed all instructions to a T, spent time playing with her everyday, and sent the cutest photos (which were so appreciated since I missed her so much). We will go to Meredith any time we need a sitter!
Once again, Ilaria was phenomenal with my cat Nala! This is the second time I have had Ilaria do stop-in visits with my kitty, and I would absolutely reach out to her again! She was very communicative and flexible with her visits, gave Nala all the love, and sent the cutest photos in the Rover Cards! I felt very comfortable with Ilaria stopping by and caring for my kitty. And Nala loves her too!!
We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! She took such great care of our girls while we were away, making sure they always had fresh food, water, and clean litter boxes. Her communication was excellent, and we really appreciated the consistent updates throughout our trip. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our girls were in good hands. We’re so grateful for the care and attention she provided and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring pet sitter. Thank you so much for everything 💗
Mary was not only incredible to Nala for her visits, but she was also extremely lovely to communicate with! She always showed up on time, took all the best photos, gave Nala so much love, and completed all tasks. She even went above and beyond when I needed a little extra help. She was a joy, I trusted her, and I will 100% reach out to her for future visits!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Atlanta is $24 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $36 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 November 2026, there are 7,362 sitters on Rover offering Pet 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
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
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 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.
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.
