About: I am an aspiring veterinarian currently working and in school to learn as much as I can about pets and properly caring for them. I have worked at vet clinics for the past 5/6 years and would love the opportunity to care and help out your pets in any way I can. I am very comfortable with both dogs cats and other reptiles as well. I work at an animal clinic so caring for animals is always apart of my days. Animals station and in my care have the option of coming to work with me where they will have a nice comfy spot for the day. I also am able to keep pets at my home and do potty breaks and playtime throughout the day. I am an experienced animal lover and caretaker. I am able to give meds do some small training exercises. I am comfortable giving medication and working with pets that may not be well socialized
“Desiree was so helpful in watching our dogs! We haven’t had anyone dog sit at home before and she made us feel completely comfortable and constantly updated us on how the dogs were doing and sent pictures!”
About: Hi! I’m an experienced dog walker and dedicated animal lover with a background volunteering at the Atlanta Humane Society. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes and temperaments and know how to keep your pet happy, safe, and well-exercised. I have a full time job that is 8:30am- 5pm , but I am free after work and on the weekends to care for your pet! I will make sure your pet is well cared for with plenty of walks, food, and water! At the animal shelter, I was trained on caring for animals.
“Thank you so much for looking after my dog. This is the first week, and he had a rough week, but it seems like he has adjusted to you well! We will continue this relationship!”
About: I am currently working as a dog trainer in Grant Park, I have experience with dogs and cats, as well as socialization with reactive dogs. I believe every animal just needs the right environment to thrive! I have a very open ended training job that only restrict my time in the early mornings most days. Otherwise I am free to help you in when needed! Let me know how i can work into your schedule I am very supportive of special needs and care needed for any given pup. I also provide flexibility for any schedule adjustments or training needed
“Damilola sent the best videos of buddy during her visit and was so sweet throughout the entire booking process and visit. She went above and beyond for us and we know our dog was in great hands.”
“Lorien is awesome! She did daily drop-in visits for my pup, and he absolutely loved her. She’s caring, communicative, and took great care of my boy while I was at the office (always took great photos too). Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve cared for a wide variety of animals over the years, including dogs and cats. Having grown up around animals myself, I understand how difficult it can be for pets when their owners are away. My goal is to make sure they feel loved, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re on vacation, and I’ll give them plenty of attention, affection, and care until you return. I am currently a college kid home for the summer. With that being said I have a completely open schedule right now until I head back in the fall! I care for every pet as if they were my own. I make sure they stay on their normal routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any medications if needed. I also provide plenty of attention, affection, and exercise based on each pet’s individual needs and personality. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all care instructions to help pets feel comfortable and stress-free while their family is away. I always send updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are happy and well cared for.
About: I create a warm and welcoming space for dogs where they can feel at home! Your furry friend is free to roam around my house alongside my own pups, enjoying the company and playtime. They’ll also have the chance to run and explore in my spacious, private 6ft fenced yard, with a handy doggy door for easy in-and-out access whenever they want! I provide constant fresh water, and they can interact and socialize with other dogs, having a blast during their stay. Plus, they'll sleep comfortably in a cool, air-conditioned environment. Your pup will be well taken care of and have a fantastic time here! Retired, available all day, full-time, seven days a week now. I’m available weekends holidays, day and/ or night. There is an extra charge if you want to drop off before 8 AM. I prefer drop off the night before and pick or pick up the next day. I treat all furbabies that enter my home like they’re my children each individual. I get to know their personality and judge them accordingly I’d like to get down on their level and connect with them to eye each dog has its own personality.
About: Lifetime of experience with dogs and cats, 5 years of furster care for puppies (training, love, and preparing them for their forever homes), and puppy love. I work full time, but making sure they start and end their day with love is important. Walks in the evening and weekend adventures are options. I have a fenced in yard for watching my parents animals. My own never miss a day of snuggles and play. If your furbaby stays at my home it will need to be cat friendly and would be safe downstairs where there is plenty of room to play. Giving all animals a safe space.
About: What sets me apart is that I truly do love working with animals. I am a auntie to my sisters dog and enjoy the process of helping take care of him. I actually work many freelance gigs and can create content as a filmmaker, CEO and artist from anywhere, which allows me to give my sisters dog when she is at school or work all the attention he needs! Plus he’s my best friend so we just hang out together! While living at my moms house and during my time now preparing to transition to move out into the world on my own I’ve learned a lot from my sisters dog. I understand the importance of balancing fun play with the dog and maintenance and taking extra care of personal belongings such as keeping the household clean and together as if it’s my own!
About: I have been loving and taking care of dogs since I was ten years old and started my first dog walking business. I am the girl who will stop and pet every dog and take the best photos! I’ve been working with animals for over 15 years and volunteering at the humane society for the last 10. I love all animals, all sizes but with my previous career couldn’t have any of my own due to traveling. I can promise you no one will love and take care of your fur babies better than me! I have so many fur Neices and nephews (who I’m still convinced love me most) but always have room in my heart for more! I’m an early riser for those good morning walks and I work from home so I can cuddle on the couch all day while working! I would love to take care of your babies like they are my own! Please feel free to ask any questions! I work in music so I usually tour but I am home so have more than enough time on my hand to take care of your fur babies. My house is and has always been pet friendly. They will have the run of the place. I actively believe we’re just here to nurture and love on them. It’s their world - we’re just living in it.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Forest Park 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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 sitter 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 sitter 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 sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
