About: I've always loved taking in animals and taking care of them whether they were my own or not. I have been pet sitting for about 4 years now, and I volunteered at an animal clinic in Athens, GA for 6 months. At the clinic I frequently bathed, walked, feed, and took care of many different dogs and cats. I currently only work a couple days out of the month and also complete college online, so my schedule gives me open and flexible availability! Safety, trust, and a comfortable environment are all prioritized when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home. I always take time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and any specific needs such as feeding schedules, medications, or behavioral preferences.
“Wow, just Amazing! Olivia was attentive and followed directions to a T. She was extremely diligent and gave my sweet boy extra lovings. He really enjoyed her company and we are so happy to know that we will MOST DEFINITELY be using Olivia again very soon! If your hesitant about a dog sitter, OLIVIA IS YOUR GIRL!!!”
About: With 8 years of experience, I provide loving and attentive care for both dogs and cats. I have worked with puppies, senior pets, and even partially blind or deaf animals. I'm skilled in administering medications using various methods, ensuring your pet gets the care they need. I offer walks, playtime, feedings, and plenty of cuddles! Comfortable handling multiple dogs at once, I’ve cared for households with up to seven dogs, managing feedings and walks with ease. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priorities! I'm currently a college student with a schedule that allows me to stop by in the morning, midday, and afternoon/night. On weekends I am completely open for care unless stated otherwise on my availability. I provide care in my client’s home to ensure pets stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow each pet’s usual schedule for feeding, walks, and playtime to minimize stress and maintain their routine. I also send regular photo updates so owners can see how happy and well their pets are while they’re away.
About: I am a lifelong animal lover with a passion for cats of all temperaments and personalities. Having an elderly cat with cancer myself, I'm very experienced in all the special care that come with high-needs kitties (medication administration, observing any behavior changes, etc.) I've fostered cats for years and have become a bit of shy cat savant. Patience is key - I take the time to learn their personality and routine and make them feel safe and comfortable. You can rest assured that you will get a copious amount of photos and updates while you're away! I work as a yoga and pilates teacher so I have plenty of availability to give your pet all the love, care, and attention they need! I have a two-story house with easy partitions between large spaces so your kitty can have a safe space away from my kitties (if necessary)
About: I’ve grown up with animals for pretty much my whole life, and have always loved having them around! In the last few years, I’ve been living alone and touring for work, so I can’t morally have a cat or dog of my own. I have a crested gecko and a california king snake (named Minkie and Burger) that keep to themselves, and honestly most of the time they are completely still or have hidden themselves in some foliage, so they’ve never been much interest to dogs or cats that have been in my house. Half of the time I work from home, either mixing or making string arrangements for albums. If I am working at a studio or running sound at a venue, I’m able to take a break to let out anyone who needs to be let out, but ideally would just schedule myself for days where I’m already working from home. Ideally I’d be able to be around them as much as possible! I’m a bit of a homebody when I get the chance, so I’d make sure they’re the center of attention :)
About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life living at home and have always had friends and cousins with cats as well. I have been pet sitter for dogs and cats for several of my neighbors. I am used to walking two dogs so I can handle a lot! I love animals so much and being able to still be around them while being away from home is a wonderful opportunity. I am currently a student at the University of Georgia but I am free most weekends and after 11 am on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. I love animals and have great energy for walks and drop ins! I love to exercise and play with pets as needed. I am devoted and caring towards all needs.
About: Hi! My name is Madison and I would love to help take care of your furry friends! I have professional experience in pet care and have worked at an animal hospital. I have helped my mom for years with her pet sitting business and absolutely love working with animals! Caring for your animals is my passion; I am a certified Vet Tech so just know that your animals are in the best care possible. I work most weekdays but my schedule is flexible and I would be willing to work with your schedule. Also, I have experience in giving medications so if your dogs need it, I can do it! Please consider choosing me the next time you need someone to watch your best friend! I work from home so my schedule is very flexible. I am able to work from just about anywhere; this way I can watch your pets from the comfort of their home. I do not offer daycare in my own home, but I would be more than happy to watch over your pets in their homes. I send daily pictures so you know your pet is getting the best care possible.
About: I’m the person who actually reads the instructions. I have more than 20 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I’m especially comfortable with medium and large dogs and currently accept walking clients up to 70 pounds. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and respectful of the fact that every household does things a little differently. If you tell me your dog eats from a certain bowl, waits at a certain door, prefers a particular route, or has a weird little routine that makes no sense to anyone but them — I’m going to follow it. I’ll also keep you updated with clear notes and photos so you’re not left wondering how things went. I’m not a trainer or medical-care provider, and I don’t administer medications. What I do offer is consistency, patience, careful attention, and reliable care from someone who genuinely enjoys being around dogs. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I already spend time each day walking and caring for dogs. I’m available for scheduled walks and drop-in visits during the day and can be flexible when bookings are planned in advance. I especially enjoy building a predictable routine with repeat clients, so recurring weekday walks or regular drop-ins are a great fit for me. I’m also happy to accommodate occasional vacation or one-time visits when my schedule allows. I care for pets in their own home by following their established routine as closely as possible. I pay attention to feeding instructions, potty routines, leash preferences, household rules, favorite toys, and any specific notes you leave for me. I take safety seriously, including securely closing doors and gates, checking leashes and harnesses before walks, and being mindful of the pet’s behavior and surroundings. I also respect your home and belongings and leave things as I found them. During each visit, I’ll provide attentive care, companionship, and clear updates with photos so you know how your pet is doing. I currently provide walks and drop-in visits only and do not administer medications.
About: I have worked at vet clinics and at barns so I have diverse experiences to handle animals. I also have had pets my whole life. I recently moved to athens to start vet school. Since it is the summer I am a free book and have time all day to watch your baby. I have a townhouse with a dog park to take your baby out. I also have a spacious living room where we can play and cuddle. In your home, I will respect your schedule and follow it to a tee.
About: I have several years of experience with both dogs and cats. The largest dog I've handled was 120 lbs. I'm down to cuddle or go on a walk, whatever your pet needs. I am a college student so I am flexible daily and can come by your house when needed. I am free on weekends and most weeknights. I would love if you can give me specifics on your pet's routine and any behavior I should know about. I have some experience with oral medication if your pet ever needs it.
About: I’ve personally owned my own fur baby since I was 22. I’ve fostered dogs for the last 5 years. Just enjoy being around them and showing them all the love!! I’ve have recently moved to Athens GA and currently looking for a job. I have full open availability and figured this would be a great way to spend my day! Being with dogs makes my heart happy! Would love to spend my time with your fur baby!!!! I have a fully fenced yard and my own two dogs that are super friendly and lovers of all dogs and people! My oldest Kyla loves snuggles and lounging around. My youngest Huck LOVES being outside and watching squirrels and birds. He is a chaser so needs to be watched when he is off leash. They both have my constant attention as would your fur babies if I have the chance to watch them!!!
About: Hi! I’m Emma, an experienced animal lover with 5+ years of trusted pet sitting experience and a background in veterinary medicine and pet care. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and other pets for neighbors and families for years, handling everything from daily walks and feeding to medications and personalized care. I also have experience working with puppies and senior dogs, so I understand the extra patience, attention, and care they may need. Along with pet sitting, I have over a year of veterinary experience, which means I’m comfortable recognizing signs of illness, administering basic care, and making sure your pet stays happy and healthy. I’ve also worked at a pet daycare, giving me hands-on experience managing dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels in both group and one-on-one settings. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a calm and reliable routine, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets, and I treat every animal like they’re my own! I have pretty open availability during the weekend and am open to discussing any additional times you made need. I am happy to accommodate longer visits as well. I always prioritize keeping pets safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine while you’re away. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions for feeding schedules, walks, medications, crating, and any other specific care needs.
About: @ahartpetsitting on insta!! I’ve been taking care of animals as long as I can remember. Hermit crabs, guinea pigs, lizards, fish, chickens, you name it! I just love every animal, and I still believe that they can speak, just not when we’re in the room. I work professionally with dogs every single day as a manager of a dog care facility. I’m known for liking the “bad dogs” at work along with special needs and older pets as well (I love powdered sugar faces)! I treat each animal as my own, and I would do the same with yours! I work full time as a manager at a doggy daycare, I would be able to get you a registration forms and take your pup to work with me if you’d like! My job is very flexible so I can also come home at any point and let your pup out instead of bringing them with me. I am also open to not working during the time I care for your pet. Message me and let’s talk! If you don’t have a dog, I am more than happy to talk with you and figure out if I need to come home for breaks or not work! I care for each pet exactly how owners ask me too, just with lots of extra love! I can chill if that’s what your pet likes to do, or I can adventure. I love being outside in nature as well as cozying up on the couch :)
About: I've been walking neighborhood dogs and house sitting since I was 10! Experience caring for large, small, old and young pets. I have no problem with instructions for any special medications or routines. I'm very reliable and would love to stay and play with your pets! If your dogs are dog-park friendly I will happily take them to the park and/or bring them along on runs with me. I have 3 medium-sized rescue dogs at home who are all as friendly with other dogs as can be! I have a large reliable SUV and I'm more the willing to come to your house or bring your pets to mine - whatever works for you! I have also had reptile and small mammal pets my whole life as well as horses, and enjoy caring for all kinds of animals. I am self employed as a real estate agent so my schedule is extremely flexible and customizable, and I often work from home. There’s never a need for me to be gone more than a few hours at a time, and my husband is often home as well. I have a large fenced in backyard and 3 friendly dogs who love to play! I am happy to bring your pup over for some play time or bring everyone to the park. Or just play with your fur babies at your place and take them out for a nice long walk - or run if they’re high energy!

The average cost of Dog Walking in Colbert is $16 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $20 per walk.

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 Colbert. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Colbert after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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 Colbert. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% 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 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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers 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 walker.
