About: I have taken care of and been best friends with cats and dogs all of my life. Nothing brings me more joy than loving and caring for an animal. I have collaborated with animal rescues on many occasions to provide assistance for needy animals and continue to be an advocate for animals. Pet care is something I am active in doing every day, as an owner of four cats. Every day is about feeding, watering, and litter box maintenance, in addition to plenty of love and attention (which is gladly NON-STOP). My number one priority is animal safety and owner-security. I always am very anxious leaving my animals in the hands of someone I don’t know very well and I can assure you that I will take the task of caring for your pet with the utmost importance.

About: We love pets! They have always been part of our family. Back home in Massachusetts, I (Jasmine) grew up with two dogs and two cats, which taught me firsthand how to care for pets with different personalities, needs, and routines. That lifelong love followed me to Atlanta, where I recently moved with my boyfriend, Chris, and our dog, Max. What truly sets us apart is our experience and dedication. With over 8 years of hands-on pet sitting experience, we do not just watch pets. We care for them as if they were our own. Every pet is unique, and we tailor our care to match their individual routines, energy levels, and comfort needs. We understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else's care. That is why we prioritize clear communication, dependable care, and timely coordination throughout every stay. We provide regular photo updates, maintain open communication with pet parents, and are committed to ensuring every pet remains safe, comfortable, and well cared for from drop-off to pickup. Our goal is simple: to give pet parents peace of mind while providing a fun, safe, and loving environment for their pets. We treat every animal under our responsibility like family and always put their wellbeing first. We currently work from home on the days we offer pet care, which means your pets are never left unattended or rushed. Because of this flexibility, time is never an issue. We are able to fully focus on each pet’s needs throughout the day rather than fitting care around a busy schedule. Our day already revolves around our dog Max’s structured walk and care routine, so caring for other pets fits in naturally. This allows for multiple walks, regular potty breaks, playtime, enrichment, feeding on schedule, and plenty of attention. Our home is clean and free of clutter, providing a safe and comfortable space for pets. We have a secure, fenced balcony for fresh air and supervised time, and we share our home with a small Australian Shepherd who is friendly and well cared for. With plenty of space and constant supervision, pets can relax, play, and feel right at home.

Danielle is a great! We hired her to walk our 6 year old, highly energetic Chocolate Labrador, Levi! Levi loves his walks and needs a high energy walker to match his enthusiasm. Danielle did a wonderful job over 2 days managing all that furry love. She also suggested and came for a very important meet and greet the day before so they could get to know each other. Danielle fed Levi over 2 days, got him out on time, arrived promptly and was very professional and efficient in working with our apartment building management to enter, exit, park and gain access to our apartment unit while we were away. Highly recommend! We will be booking Danielle again. Thanks Danielle!

Muhsinah walks my dogs every Tuesday/Wednesday when I’m at work, and she is such a huge help! My girls always look so happy in the photos both walking and playing fetch during their time together. Muhsinah gives me such peace of mind that they’re cared for during the day. She is communicative and reliable, and we are so grateful to her!

About: I’ve been a dog lover for as long as I can remember! I grew up with a family dog, and now I have two pups of my own who are basically my children. Friends and coworkers regularly trust me to care for their dogs when they’re out of town, and I truly enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality! Whether it’s going for walks, playtime, cuddle time, or just keeping them company, I make sure every pup feels comfortable, safe, and loved. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pet, so I’ll care for your dog like they’re my own and keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages while you’re away. I work full time and my scheduled days can vary, but I love spending my free time with pups and have a flexible schedule outside of work. I’m available for evenings, weekends, and sometimes mornings with advanced notice. I live in a pet-friendly apartment community with a fenced-in dog park, but I typically walk my own dogs on a leash and am happy to do whatever makes you most comfortable. Every dog is different, so I’ll always accommodate your preferred routine!

She kept me updated, made sure he got his treats and water, and was super easy to communicate with. Even when he tried to jump or pull, she stayed calm and gentle with him. I’d definitely book her again! 🐶

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember—cats, and a very energetic Dalmatian who definitely kept life interesting. My love for pet care started early, and I began pet sitting around age 12 for both dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. Since then, I’ve never really stopped. I’ve either had cats or dogs in my home my entire life, and caring for animals has always been a natural part of who I am. Today, I share my home with my two pups—a 6-year-old Maltipoo and a 2-year-old Schnoodle—who keep me laughing, active, and constantly reminded of how unique every pet’s personality can be. I’m happiest when I’m around animals, and I treat every pet I care for like one of my own. Whether it’s walks, playtime, snuggles, or just keeping their routine consistent and comfortable, I focus on making sure they feel safe, loved, and at home while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I take that responsibility seriously—while still bringing plenty of love, patience, and fun to every visit! Pet care fits naturally into my daily life because I’m currently not working a traditional job, which means I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to your pets. I’m able to provide consistent attention, care, and companionship throughout the day, whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping your pet company and making sure they feel comfortable and secure. When caring for pets in your home, I focus on keeping them happy, safe, and comfortable in their familiar space. I follow your routine closely for feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions so your pet feels secure and cared for. I take time to understand each pet’s unique personality and adjust my care to match—whether that means active play, calm companionship, or extra cuddles. I also treat your home with respect and make sure everything is left clean and as you left it. My goal is simple: happy pets, peace of mind for you, and care you can fully trust while you’re away.

Morgan is a true dog lover and such a professional. She is so thorough with her updates every single day. She includes multiple (super cute) pictures of our dogs with details of their time together on walks. She also stays beyond walk time to play fetch with the pups and always makes sure they have water and food before she leaves! Morgan is truly the best and her praises can’t be sung enough. We feel so happy knowing that our dogs are in such loving care with her. You won’t regret choosing Morgan!

About: I’ve been dog sitting for the same wonderful family for the past 8 years and have experience caring for dogs of all ages, personalities, and energy levels. Right now I regularly care for a sweet 15-year-old black lab as well as a 1-year-old Cavalier who keeps me on my toes with nonstop energy and zoomies 😊 I genuinely love spending quality time with dogs and making sure they feel safe, engaged, and loved while their humans are away. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or a slower pace and extra patience, I’m happy to meet them where they are and stick to the routines that make them feel most comfortable. I also have experience administering medication when needed and caring for both puppies and senior dogs. When I’m dog sitting, I make it a priority to stay engaged and committed to a consistent walking and potty schedule so dogs aren’t left alone or inactive for long periods of time. My goal is always to provide loving, dependable care and to make sure your pet feels happy, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and creating a calm, loving environment for them while their humans are away. My schedule is currently very flexible, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to each pet’s individual needs, whether that’s long walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding schedules, medication, or simply keeping them company throughout the day. I understand how important consistency and companionship are for both cats and dogs, so I do my best to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, engaged, and cared for while you’re away. I’m also happy to work with different routines and energy levels, from playful puppies and energetic dogs to senior pets and shy kitties who may need a gentler approach 😊 At this time, I primarily offer care in my clients’ homes rather than boarding pets in my own home. I have a cat of my own, Salem, and I want to make sure she continues to feel comfortable and relaxed in her own space. I’ve found that many pets feel safest and most at ease when they’re able to stay in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routines. I currently provide overnight care for a family I’ve worked with for years, and being in their home allows their dogs to feel more comfortable, less stressed, and well cared for while their family is away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to follow their routines closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, potty breaks, and bedtime routines. I also make sure pets receive plenty of companionship, attention, and affection so they feel safe and supported while their loved ones are away. My goal is always to create a calm, trustworthy, and loving environment where pets can feel comfortable, secure, and cared for in the space they know best 😊

Suzanne was great with our pup Teddy. I needed someone to walk our dog while I was recovering from a surgery. So, I was able to meet her in person. She is very sweet and has a happy/friendly demeanor. I can tell she really loves dogs. She did great with our Teddy. I highly recommend her and will use her again if the opportunity presents itself.

I honestly can’t say enough good things about Jiayi. From the very beginning, she was kind, reliable, and incredibly patient with my dog. He can be a little anxious and slow to warm up to new people, but she took the time to earn his trust instead of rushing the process, and it made all the difference. She always kept me updated with photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was obvious she genuinely cared about my dog and wasn’t just checking a box. When I came home, he was happy, well cared for, and comfortable, which says everything. If you’re looking for someone who is dependable, communicative, and truly loves animals, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Jiayi. I feel really lucky to have found her, and I’ll definitely be booking with her again.

Scar is always reliable, highly communicative, friendly, and amazing with our doggies. I was nervous about whether our younger dog would be ok with someone else walking him, but he’s done great with Scar and is calmer and happier after visits from their friend. Our dogs are always happy to see them and come home from their walks satisfied and happy to get a few treats and pets from Scar. Our neighbor suggested Scar and I’ve since recommended them to another friend. So glad to have a new, reliable pet sitter we like and trust with our babies and our home.

Anna was absolutely fantastic with my golden and my foster, Emma. We met beforehand, and it was immediately clear she’s a true dog person—both of my dogs connected with her right away. She handled my reactive foster with confidence and calm, and even shared helpful tips for walking two dogs at once! As I transitioned back to the office, she gave me real peace of mind—sending photos and videos of happy pups, cleaning their water bowl, refreshing their water, and making sure they got their midday treats! I felt completely comfortable and confident leaving my dogs in her care. 10/10 recommend!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Brookhaven

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Brookhaven on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking 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 Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 7,267 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Brookhaven. 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 your Brookhaven. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Brookhaven.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 Brookhaven. On Rover:

  • 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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 dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers 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 walker.
