“Sara has been a life-saver for Liam! She was able to accommodate a meet and greet and she and Liam hit it off right away! Liam is epileptic and she was very diligent asking questions about what the plan is if he has a seizure and making sure his emergency medication were avaliable during their walks.She is kind, patient and knowledgeable in her care of animals. Will definitely book again❤️”
About: I am originally from England and now live in Marietta ! My family have always been animal lovers and I was fortunate enough to have a variety of animals growing up from dogs, cats, birds and gerbils! I currently have two cats and regularly dog sit and walk for my father-in-law who has a German Shepherd mix and an American bulldog mix! My partner is also animal crazy and was brought up basically on a farm with more animals then could ever be imagined from dogs to deers to goats. I have also helped out at dog sanctuaries in Greece and enjoy just being around animals. If you have any questions please feel free to message! I've recently just moved to the US so I have plenty of free time while I settle and I don't think there is any better way to settle in than with some animals! I have 3 dog-friendly indoor cats that mind their own business. I have a great dog park near my home I enjoy going on long walks and hikes too if your dog enjoys that! I have a crate if that is required for your pet
About: I’ve also grown up with animals since I was a baby! I’ve have horses, dogs, cats, turtles… YOU NAME IT, I’VE HAD IT😆 Neighbors, family, and friends have relied on me to feed, play, walk, and love on their furry friends! I am currently working part time/stay at home wife. So I have plenty of time to to love on and be with your fur babies😊 Unfortunately, I am not set up in the right environment to be able to watch your pet in my own home. Maybe in the future! :)
“Shirley does so great with Yoli. Our dog doesn’t trust people easily so having the patience to do some training with her is a big relief for our family. Would recommend her to others!”
About: I’m a lifelong dog lover with 15+ years of professional dog sitting experience. Over the past year, I’ve spent time volunteering weekly at a local animal rescue and fostering dogs, which has given me an even deeper appreciation for the unique personalities, needs, and stories that make every dog special. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and temperaments, from playful puppies and sweet seniors to rescue pups who need a little extra patience, reassurance, and time to settle in. I know that every dog is different, and I love getting to know their individual personalities and helping them feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I bring both confidence and compassion to every dog I care for. I’ll take the time to learn your dog’s routine, respect their comfort level, and make sure they get the attention, affection, and care they deserve. Most importantly, I know that your dog isn’t just a pet, they’re family! I’ll treat them like one of my own, with plenty of love, cuddles, playtime, and care while you’re away. My goal is for you to feel at ease knowing your pup is in loving, capable hands! I’m currently taking a sabbatical from work, which gives me plenty of flexibility to spend time with your pups! I’m available most days and can often accommodate last-minute requests. My flexible schedule allows me to give your dog plenty of attention, playtime, and care rather than rushing through a visit. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I provide in-home dog sitting and walks, allowing your pup to stay in the familiar surroundings of their own home while you’re away. I carefully follow your instructions for feeding, medications, exercise, crate use, and daily routines, and I’m happy to send regular updates so you can feel confident that your dog is safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
“Rey is amazing and would highly recommend! He is on time, and my pet LOVED spending time with him. He is very easy going and completely in-tune with the needs of my pet. I got pictures and updates during his visit. I was very anxious about leaving my pet with anyone, but Rey put my mind at ease and did a phenomenal job. Will be rescheduling for more than walks moving forward. Thanks Rey!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by pets since I was 6 years old and can’t imagine life without them. I’ve cared for both dogs and cats my entire life, and while I specialize in small dog breeds due to the space in my townhouse, I am experienced with pets of all sizes and temperaments. Whether it’s house sitting, dog walking, or providing care for multiple pets at a time, I bring the same level of attention and love to each furry friend. Your pet will enjoy walks, playtime, cuddles, and even a good conversation 😃. I’m also comfortable administering medication, handling light grooming, and following special feeding instructions—like keeping certain foods separate. Along with dogs, I’m available to care for kittens and cats as well, and I’m committed to making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I work full time, have 1 small chihuahua, & 1 tuxedo cat. My mother lives with me & she works from home. We are both fierce pet lovers & she is beyond excited to start this Rover journey with me. She will provide care during the hours that I am away from home, should your pet be in our home on a day that I am working. When I get home from work I will be responsible for providing early morning & evening care. My days off are Sunday & Monday so those days they will have my full attention, doing fun activities, walking, playing outside, etc. Pet owners will have full access to both of us 24/7 for check in, pictures, FaceTime & as much communication as you’d like. Every morning starts with a little routine of love in my home—light stretching and snuggles before the day begins. My chihuahua absolutely adores her morning stretch and pets, and it sets such a happy tone for the day! After that, it’s time for a refreshing walk, breakfast, and a quick stop to visit “grandma” upstairs in her office. In the office, we’ve created a clean and cozy play area just for the pets. It’s fully stocked with fresh water, food, toys, pee pads (for those just-in-case moments), and even a cat tree for our kitty. Everything is designed to keep them safe, comfortable, and entertained. Whether your pets are staying with me or I’m coming to care for them in your home, you can rest easy knowing their well-being and your peace of mind are my top priorities. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they’re not only cared for but also loved, protected, and happy in their environment.
About: I’m active, responsible, and genuinely love spending time with dogs. I’m especially great with energetic dogs who need plenty of walks, playtime, and attention. I’m also patient and attentive to each pet’s individual routine and needs, and I’ll always treat your pet like my own! As a former D1 college tennis player, I love staying active, so walks, playtime, and spending time with dogs fits well into my daily routine! I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. I’m happy to follow their normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions, while giving them plenty of attention and love.
“Randall was amazing! This was my first time using Rover and I was so pleased. Randall walked, fed, and played with my girls while I was away at work. She even gave Piggley her medicine. I will definitely be using her again! She is very professional and communicative! Thanks Randall!!”
“Nicole's first visit with snoopy was fantastic, he was very happy when I returned and she made time to play with him before she left. I highly recommend Nicole and look forward to using her again.”
“Anna F. Is amazing ans Woodie likes her a lot! He runs a bit when he sees her pull up! She has this calm aura that Woodie seems to love! It is great to work with her while Ana H is on vacation! Hopefullly we can book again if Ana goes away again! We are so lucky to have them!”
About: I have been around animals my whole life. I just love being around them. I have a dog of my own that I will do anything for. I’m currently working part-time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I’m available for boarding on weekends and weekdays after 2pm I care for pets as if they are my own children. I love on them with care and support and play with them until they are tired.

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.
