About: With 8+ years of pet care experience and 9 years as a dedicated dog mom, I bring practical, hands-on expertise to every visit. My background includes working alongside veterinary staff in high school, dog walking in college, and raising my own dog into their senior years. Pet care is my primary focus! I am available Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM for mid-day walks, potty breaks, and daytime companionship. Caring for my own 9-year-old dog keeps my day structured, allowing me to seamlessly match your pet’s exact routine while you’re busy during the workday. When caring for pets in your home, my top priority is keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible so they feel completely comfortable in their familiar environment. I strictly follow your instructions for feeding, potty breaks, exercise, and administering any necessary medications. I treat your home with complete respect and safety in mind, making sure everything is clean and secure. Throughout every visit, I keep you updated with photos and detailed check-ins so you always have total peace of mind while you're away.
“Enakshi is truly the best. My cat, George, has had some recent medical issues but I felt so safe trusting Enakshi to give his meds and check in on him. She went above and beyond to make sure I felt comfortable!”
“Morgan was such a great cat sitter! My shy girl Mia even came out for her. She was communicative and made sure to give the best care to my babies. Would definitely rebook!”
“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!”
“Yvonne has done a couple drop ins for my puppy and she is great. She was happy to meet before our first visit which gave me peace of mind. Yvonne is very prompt with visits and sends lots of photos. Highly recommend!”
About: Dog mom and lover who prioritizes calm and fun experiences for pets! Recently moved to Atlanta from NYC with my gentle giant and boyfriend. I do drop-ins, playdates, and walks, and can also feed / administer medication while you're out. Overall, I'd love to tailor every visit to what you're hoping your dog gets to experience in their social time, individually with me or alongside my dog, Zeppelin. He is very calm, well-trained, and friendly, and we'd love to help your puppy practice their social skills f you'd like. If your dog is working on confidence, manners, or just needs a gentle friend to learn from, my dog is a great teacher! It's also important for me to create an environment that they genuinely enjoy, whether at your home or outside, so would love to chat about what your dog likes, doesn't like, etc. prior to our meet-and-greet so I can come with some treats or ideas of things to do together! 🐶 Creative play: Enrichment games, fetch, scent games, and simple training fun, either one-on-one with me or alongside my own dog, Zeppelin, who loves other dogs and is very calm and gentle! 🌳 Slow sniff-walks: Perfect for puppies, seniors, anxious dogs, or anyone who needs to decompress. Sniffing is brain work, and we take our time. 🏃 Faster-paced walks & runs: For high-energy dogs who need to burn off steam and come home happily tired. ☀️ Heat-smart care: I pay close attention to heat tolerance, pavement temperature, shade, and water breaks, and I plan activity and feeding times around them so your dog stays comfortable, safe, and well adjusted. Adventures Beyond the Block My car is equipped with a safety puppy seat, so if you'd like, I can take your dog on outings like hiking trails, nearby parks, or fun new places to explore. Just tell me what your dog enjoys, and I'll plan something that fits their pace and personality. Sidebar - I love making homemade treats for all my clients and am happy to whip up batches for you and your fur baby as well! Credentials and philosophy: I've volunteered at dog shelters (specifically on dogs with behavioral and medical challenges) since high school (for the last 15 years) and I've owned and trained 3 dogs (2 family, 1 my own) and self-studied dog behavior and nutrition! I'm really keen on making sure dogs feel many different sources of love, dignity and simple joys throughout their day. Having a secure and happy dog is one of the most rewarding feelings ever, and I'd love to help make sure that special days with me contribute to that! I'm currently working part-time and from home, so I have lots of time to create a schedule with you around walks, playdates or different adventures. do a free meet-and-greet before every first booking, collect detailed health and behavior info, and tailor every outing to your dog's needs. All dogs are leashed with secure, well-fitted gear, and in my car they ride in a safety puppy seat. I watch heat, pavement temperature, hydration, and feeding times closely, and I'm familiar with the signs of heat stress. Playdates are always supervised and approved by owners first, and I'll keep you updated with photos and notes throughout.

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!

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
“Desiree was so helpful in watching our dogs! We haven’t had anyone dog sit at home before and she made us feel completely comfortable and constantly updated us on how the dogs were doing and sent pictures!”
“Brittany is the best cat sitter I’ve ever had! My cat is hard to please and he LOVED her. She provides PLENTY of pictures which is exactly what a fur momma wants when away. I could not recommend Brittany more!!!”
“Hayley was able to accommodate our very last minute booking, and she even managed to squeeze in a meet and greet with the pups beforehand. Our shy girl warmed up Hayley right away, and our high-energy girl definitely found someone to match her energy. Even though it was a short trip, Hayley took lots of photos and wrote up detailed reports. Hayley took great care of our pets while we were away and we would definitely book with her again!”
About: Hello! I have taken care of pets since my high school days. I enjoy taking care of pets because it is a calming experience. Not only will I take care of your pet, I will dote on them because I believe these innocent animals deserve to be taken care of. I spend my free time playing outdoors and going on walks.

Thank you Paola for your thoughtful and compassionate communication.”

Melanie is freaking phenomenal! It’s clear she takes pride in her work. She is very reliable and even goes the extra mile like bringing in packages left outside my door or changing the automatic litter box bag when I forgot to ask for that. It’s clear the cats love her and warmed up to her quickly. She is a fabulous cat sitter and I couldn’t recommend her more! I book her every time.
Hannah was very responsive and sent videos and pictures at every visit. Will definitely be using her again and recommend to other folks looking for someone to take good care of their animals. We were out of the country and worried about our cat and she kept us posted about any questions or worries.
Shanese took such great care of our girls while we were away. They took to her immediately, she gave them lots of love and attention and sent lots of pictures. It made us feel ok being away for a few days knowing she was taking good care of them. She even noticed an ant problem near the front window and did what she could to address it. Looking forward to working with her again!

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.

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 .
