About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was in college for some extra cash. Now I have 2 dogs of my own who are basically my children, so I’ve learned a lot along the way from experience and doing my own research. I can teach basic commands, basic obedience and potty training. What you can expect from me is to treat your dogs as I would my own with the same level of care and affection. I have two dogs myself. They are what got me into a routine. I have experience planning my days around potty breaks, enough outdoor time, play time, and feedings. I prefer we do some sort of walk through or schedule for the dogs because not everybody has the same routine so I don’t want to assume and carry on with what my routine would be and disrupt the dogs routine.
“Maria was truly a blessing for us during our absence. She took excellent care of Chelsea every day, even during an ice storm, and then snow the following week. Her attention to detail and care were so appreciated. We will definitely be using her again.”
“I booked Terissa fir a drop in and was really pleased with her quick response and communication. She showed up at the requested time and wasn’t plenty of photos to assure me my fur kids were in good hands. Definitely recommend booking her!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats for family friends for several years, providing reliable and loving care while they’re away. I’m experienced with feeding, walks, litter box cleaning, playtime, and following each pet’s routine to keep them happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Pet care fits easily into my current routine because I have a very flexible schedule and am available most of the time. I don’t currently work, so I’m able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to caring for pets. My schedule can vary, but with enough notice I’m happy to accommodate different needs, whether that’s drop-ins, walks, feeding, playtime, or extended care. I will follow each pet’s specific needs, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any other instructions provided. I do not offer boarding at my home, but I am happy to provide attentive and reliable care where your pets feel most.
“I cannot say enough about Lucie!! She went above and beyond to take care of our Twix! She stayed at our home and was able to sleep with Twix. This is the 1st time we tried this service and would definitely do it again. She came for a meet and greet prior to scheduling to make sure she was a good fit. Lucie sent videos, pictures and messages keeping us updated on how things were going. We will definitely use Lucie again for future bookings!!”

They are so excited when she walks in the door. She always shows up on time and in constant communication with me. Could not asked for a better sitter.”

Being home also allows me to keep a close eye on them and make sure they feel safe and part of the household. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved.

“We couldn’t be happier with the care and attention Sadie receives from Enjoli. She is professional, reliable, and caring. She always arrived on time, provides updates and photos during walks, and treated our Sadie with the love she deserves! We highly recommend Enjoli to care for your pets!”
“Baoer and her daughter visited our home for a meet and greet before we confirmed the booking. While we were away, they took great care of Kea (our cat). Baoer followed all our feeding and cleaning instructions, and they played with him a lot too. We were relieved to know he’s being cared for and adored.”
“Christina was so wonderful with my cat. Even though he gave her a hard time taking his medicine, she didn't give up trying. This is the first time I've used this service and I'm so glad I found Christina.”

Marissa is such a sweetheart! She was so sweet with Ace. She even left us a sweet note and gift behind on her last day checking on Ace. I would 100% recommend her to care for your fur baby. She’s very knowledgeable when it comes to animals and can tell that she genuinely enjoys this and it’s not just money with her.
Pete was so well cared for! Devania R. came twice a day, made sure our pup was happy and comfortable, and even sent us pictures with each visit. The updates gave us so much peace of mind, and it was clear our dog was in great hands. We’re so grateful and would definitely book with Devania R. again!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Buford 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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Buford choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Buford with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
