About: Dogs have had a special place in my heart ever since my own was rescued on Valentine’s Day after being found tied to a tree. Watching her adjust, gain confidence, and become part of our family made me appreciate how different every dog is. Since then, I’ve loved getting to know each dog’s personality and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. Whether your dog is staying with me, I’m coming to your home, taking them on a walk, or simply stopping by for a check-in, I’ll follow their routine and give them the attention they deserve. I’ll also keep you updated with pictures and messages so you always know how they’re doing. My goal is for both you and your dog to feel at ease while you’re apart. I’m currently on summer break, so my schedule is very open. During the semester, I’m typically available for boarding after 5:00 PM on weekdays and as early as needed on weekends. If you have a specific time or date in mind, just reach out. I’m always happy to communicate and find a schedule that works for both of us. I provide attentive, consistent care tailored to each pet’s needs and the owner’s instructions. In my home, I maintain a calm and safe environment with regular walks, feeding schedules, and supervised activity. Since I live in an apartment, daily walks are a key part of the routine, and nearby Phoenix Park is where we usually go for exercise and stimulation. I make sure pets get the opportunity to stay active, explore, and release energy in a healthy way. If a dog is social, they may interact with other dogs, but if they are shy or the owner prefers one-on-one time, I always adjust accordingly. In a client’s home, I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding, walking, medication, and routines exactly as directed. I respect the home, keep things clean and organized, and prioritize the pet’s comfort, safety, and normal routine so they feel secure while their owner is away.
“She took such good care of my pups and at a last minute request. My senior dog who doesn't like everyone absolutely loved her. I would definitely recommend!!”
“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!”
“Vivian was very communicative and when my building was under construction and our key handoff arrangement changed she was flexible and helped me figure out alternatives to our original arrangement. She sent detailed check-in cards. Everything she did with my cat and any she followed all my instructions perfectly and took a lot of photos and notes on the visit. Thank you Vivian!”
“The sweetest ever, my cat Marble is obsessed with her!! I felt so at ease leaving my cat with her while traveling and was always well informed. I would 110% leave my pets with her again!!”
“Meredith was wonderful to work with and our cats loved her! She is reliable, communicative, and trustworthy. Will certainly have her watch our cats again! ☺️”
“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!”
“No one could make me feel more at peace leaving my babies for a weekend than Melanie!! She treats my two kitties with such care, and provides generous photos and updates throughout the allotted time! She’s the GOAT!!”
“Julia was so wonderful! She communicated clearly, spent time with our babies, and was so wonderful to keep us updated while we were out of town. We are grateful!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the service Cabby gave my big boys. I’m always cautious with anyone new since my dogs are large. They immediately fell in love with her. I loved all the feedback and pictures provided. Would 100% use her again.”
“Cori is the best! She is super reliable, quick with communication, so super sweet and I just can’t say enough good things about her! Even my cat loved her! 12/10 will book again with Cori!”
“Sergio had great communication throughout and we set up a meet & greet before the visit. Milly felt so at home with Sergio, who made sure to do all of my (very detailed) list of tasks! I got some really cute photos that made me feel confident that my little guy loved it!! My place was left tidy after, and Sergio was understanding of me forgetting to give him the door code until he arrived.”
“Danelle was great! She took the best care of my kitten while I was away. She left a detailed follow up after each day and was very communicative with me. I would definitely recommend her and use her services again!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and temperaments and currently raise both a senior dog and a puppy, so I understand the different needs each stage requires. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, medication (if needed), walks, crate training, and providing a calm, loving environment. I treat every pet like my own and prioritize safety, communication, and reliability. I have a flexible schedule and prioritize pet care daily since I have dogs of my own. I’m available for weekday mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends for walks or drop-ins. I can also provide boarding whenever it is needed. I provide a structured, safe, and attentive environment. My home has a fully fenced yard and two well-socialized dogs. I supervise all playtime, separate pets when necessary, and follow feeding, medication, and exercise routines carefully. Cleanliness, security, and communication are extremely important to me, and I provide regular updates with photos for peace of mind.
“Emma took great care of my dog during a couple drop in visits! It was a huge relief knowing she was taken care of while I was gone for the day. I received updates and photos from her visits.”
“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!”
“Enakshi went above and beyond caring for my cats! She was amazing with both my super needy and my super shy cat. I felt so good being away knowing she was there to make sure my kitties were okay. Would absolutely book again in a heartbeat!”
About: I’ve had animals of all sorts since I was a kid. My own senior cat I’ve taken care of since she was a kitten. While cats are my specialty, I still have plenty of experience taking care of dogs, especially pitbulls — they’ve always been a big part of the family. As the eldest, I’ve been responsible for training the puppies/kittens as well as building and sticking to routine I’m currently unemployed so I have a wide open schedule to take care of pets. I’ll also be more flexible with last minute appointments. Currently, I stay in student housing so I most likely will not be offering pet care in my own home. I may ask a friend whom I trust if I can stay at theirs with your pet if it’s needed (they don’t own pets and are hardly home). In your home, I will follow any rules that you have set.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Atlanta
Olja is great! My wife and I had complete peace of mind knowing our cat was in such good hands while we were on vacation. It was clear he was well cared for, and we truly appreciated the attention and care he received. We wouldn’t hesitate to trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable pet care.
Ahron was great. He watched our cat while we were out of the country and was extremely communicative through the time zones, always came on time, and would send us cute pics and videos at each visit. We also had an issue with the wifi - affecting our automatic litterbox, which he trouble shooted in real time. I cannot reccomend him enough!
Robert is the best dog sitter! Salsa is absolutely smitten with him and cannot wait for her daily visits. He provides so many photos after each visit as well as updates about Salsa’s day. He is always on time and is so easy to coordinate last minute drop in’s. Salsa and I are so happy we found such a kind and trustworthy dog sitter! I would recommend Robert to anyone and everyone!
Nicole did such a great job with my two cats and hamster while I was away. We just moved to a new area so could no longer rely on our usual pet sitter who now lives too far away, but Nicole made me feel so reassured that my babies were in good hands. Nicole sent updates and pictures every day and was very communicative throughout the whole visit. It is clear Nicole has a true passion for animals and I will absolutely reach out to book again in the future when I need care for my babies. Thanks again Nicole!!
I cannot recommend highly enough. Andrea took such wonderful care of my cats!! She brought cat treats that helped with digestion and coat, brought toys, and even left the place cleaner than I had left it- to name just a few things. Andrea loves animals and is very intentional and caring about her work. I trust her and feel it is my good luck that I came across her profile. Again, cannot recommend highly enough.
Darley was amazing with my cat crew. She was superb with communication, followed all the instructions, handled the medication expertly and gave them as much love as they wanted. When the key fob stopped working, she chatted with the concierge to get it fixed. You will be lucky to have her check in on your animals.
Emily was an absolute lifesaver for my bonded brothers, Reggie and Dexter! This was my first time leaving them since adopting them from a rescue, and given their background as feral kittens, I was incredibly nervous. Emily was amazing. She became fast friends with Reggie right away. While Dexter was too timid to interact, Emily respected his space while still going out of her way to ensure he was fully cared for. The daily photo updates and detailed notes completely put my mind at ease. I will absolutely be booking with her again!
Hannah is super communicative, caring, and dependable - and always shares great photos from her visits! She went above and beyond to help when a storm knocked out my cats’ auto-feeder between drop-ins. So happy to have her checking in on my cats when I was away and will def book with her again in the future!

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Atlanta on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 7,392 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Atlanta. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Atlanta stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
