About: I grew up with a sweet dachshund and have been a dog-lover ever since! Andrew and I both work from home full time, and that makes us the go-to pet sitter for neighbors and friends. We’ve had experience with both active dogs and those that might need a little more care and patience. We love having a new friend around to keep us company! We both work fully remote jobs and therefore can give your fur-baby all the attention they may need! We always aim to go out at least 4 times a day, but can adhere to your pet’s specific schedule. We offer flexible boarding availability throughout the week and weekends. For any weekend bookings, we do ask that your pet be comfortable being alone for at least a couple of hours since there may be instances where we will be out of the house running errands. While we don’t currently have any pets of our own, our pet-friendly apartment will cater to your furry friend’s comfort. We live on the Beltline making it the perfect setting for long walks or quick potty breaks. We’re more than happy to accommodate your pet’s needs, whether it is crating them or something else.
“Alannah H is absolutely wonderful with my fur child Yana. She treats Yana as if she is her own. I constantly get photos and communications regarding Yana. It is a relief to know that I found someone that I can just and someone that treats my fur child as if she was her own. Thank you Alannah!”
“Sarah was wonderful with our dog, Rocco. It was his first time being away from us and he spent most of the day snuggling with Sarah! She was so sweet and kind with him, and I felt totally comfortable leaving him with her. We look forward to having her watch Rocco again!”
“My dog is always happy and tired after going to stay with Hope, and very happy to arrive. Hope is very fast to respond to messages and always sends photos. The yard is amazing!”
“Super grateful for Richard & Samma. I was in Atlanta for a few days and found out i couldn’t take Nash with me somewhere so i was rushing to find a sitter. Samma quickly response and i stopped by for a meet & greet. She took her time walking me through her process while Nash got acquainted with the other dogs. Within the first 15mins he was running around the yard.Samma sent me a few pics and kept me updated. When i picked him up he was happy and worn out. Very grateful for Samma & Richard for helping me out last minute. Whenever I’m back in ATL and Nash needs daycare I’ll be sure to keep them in mind. Highly recommended. Thanks again!”
“I truly appreciate the care Trinise shows to Chase! She has a nice welcoming dog friendly home environment. She’s very responsive at a moments notice and Chase shows a happy and cheerful demeanor when I pick him up. I highly recommend Trinise if you are looking for a great sitter!”
“I am very happy to write this review for Alexa who has cared for my dog. Moon, for this past week. Finding someone you can trust with your pet is difficult, but Alexa made me feel completely at ease from day one. She took the time to do a thorough meet-and-greet, learned Moon’s feeding and walking routines, and asked great questions. She sends daily updates with photos, When I pick up Moon she is happy, relaxed, and well-cared for. I recommend without hesitation to anyone looking for a loving, responsible, and competent sitter for their pets.”
“Audrey was fantastic with my pups! They spent a ton of time running around the backyard, and I can tell they are wiped out! After a 10 hour shift that is exactly what I was hoping for! Will be rebooking anytime we need a doggy sitter. 🌟”
“Mikyah has been so great! My pup is sweet but he suffers from separation anxiety. She’s been helping him adjust to my new rto schedule with such patience and grace! As the weeks have gone by he’s been feeling more comfortable and I’m glad I can trust my pup with such a great sitter!”
“Maria is Izzy's absolute favorite. As soon as we drive up, she knows where we are and is so excited. We always bring home a beaming, tired, and happy dog. We love that Izzy gets so many cuddles and socialization with Maria!”
“Great comminication. Left Zeta for day care and she was well taken care of. Will leave Zeta with Ashlee and her family again. I would highly recomend. I was an hr later picking Zeta up and Ashlee was very understanding and acommodating. Thanks so much for everything.”
“I could tell Tyson was comfortable being with Layla, and that’s all I needed to see to know I wanted to work with her. She also love that she only serves one pooch/family at a time. I will definitely be a return customer.”
About: I grew up with cats and adopted a rescue dog of my own in 2023. I have also worked at a Dog Daycare facility in Atlanta as a back of house attendant and have cared for every type of dog from a Frenchie to a German Shepard! Through that experience, I have become accustomed to dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperament. I am such a pet person and get along with every animal I meet! I have experience handling and navigating dog obedience and behavioral training, leash reactivity and dog reactivity training. I can handle any walk, long or short, and live a very active lifestyle. Should your dog or cat need an individualized experience, I am happy to provide space for that. I work full time during the week from 9-5. I have plenty of time after work for dog walks and am fully available on the weekends (and certain holidays), to walk, watch or house sit with your pets! I walk my own dog three times each day and live walking distance to the Beltline, quiet side streets, Old Fourth Ward park and the O4W dog park for plenty of exercise! I live in an apartment with my dog Wallaby! I am very attentive and will make sure your pets are fed, watered, and cared for on their schedule - not mine. Whether it’s a walk or house sitting, I will make your pet my top priority and am happy to provide 1-1 individualized attention!
“Wonderful experience with Oklie! Oklie can be a little anxious and she did wonderful here. Would recommend and would definitely use again if we are in the area. Thanks for taking care of our sweet girl.”
“Danielle was such a ray of light! We were on a road trip and wanted to spend the afternoon at the Georgia Aquarium. Since Danielle lives so close, she watched our pup, Libby, while we explored. She was wonderful with communication, flexible, and incredibly accommodating. She kept us updated with lots of photos and even sent a video of Libby having a great time. It gave us such peace of mind knowing she was in such caring hands. We wouldn't hesitate to book with Danielle again. Highly recommend!”

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Ellenwood commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in GA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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.
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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 2,416 sitters in Ellenwood, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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.
