About: I’ve grown up with animals! I’ve always had a cat to take care of! I got my first kitten when I was around 5 years old! ever since I’ve had an amazing connection with all animals but especially cats more than anything. I have watched over dogs many of times. I can handle a big dog but I am mainly used to small/medium dogs ahah:) I’ve currently have dealt with puppies and them being sick! I have learned many new things along the way! I am so excited to learn more things about animals as I watch over them. I have only ever pet sit once through rover, but I can assure you I have plenty of experience and knowledge when it comes to animals! Your dog/cat would be so lucky to have me watch over them:) I currently have no full time job! which gives me more time for your fur babies.. I am currently in school working on getting closer to being a veterinarian assistant:)) my schooling is completely online though so I can bring it wherever I go. I am majoring in Animal Science! I would care for your fur babies in your home the same as if you were there. provided you leave me with a schedule of your pets day!

I work Monday through Friday with autistic children but I’m available before and after work as well as the whole weekends to take care of your pups!

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’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'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: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, growing up in a home full of both cats and dogs. Caring for pets has always come naturally to me, and having pets of my own has taught me patience, responsibility, and how important it is to give them the extra love and attention they deserve. I recently said goodbye to my 13-year-old Labrador Retriever, my best friend, but not long after, I rescued a scrawny feral kitten who is now absolutely thriving and living his best life. I also worked as a veterinary technician assistant for a year, where I gained hands-on experience supporting veterinarians and learning how to properly care for animals of all ages and needs. This experience taught me how to be attentive, detail-oriented, and confident in handling a variety of situations. Whether it’s keeping up with routines, providing playtime and enrichment, or simply offering comfort and companionship, I treat every pet like my own. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Alongside my commitment to Rover, I also attend school at the University of Georgia as a part-time student which requires a few hours of on-campus attendance. That said, I maintain a flexible schedule throughout the week and am commonly available on weekends. I’m more than happy to accommodate your routine and ensure your pet receives the care, attention, and exercise they deserve when you’re away! While I don’t have a large yard, my neighborhood offers plenty of safe walking trails and a nearby community dog park, giving your pet great opportunities to stay active, happy, and well-exercised.

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.

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.

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.
