“Kelly was fabulous! She sent my photos of my cats on every visit and wrote a little synopsis of how they were doing. I can’t say enough wonderful things about her. It was so nice to be able to travel and not be worried if they were ok.”
About: My name is Hailey and I’ve been pet sitting as long as I can remember. I’ve been in the animal care field for 7 years starting as a doggy daycare attendant and now working as a veterinary technician. My life purpose is caring for animals and treating them with nothing but love and kindness. I’m extremely comfortable helping even the most nervous babies! I am animal CPR certified and medically trained to help care for medically complex kiddos! I'm currently working four days a week with weekends off. I love planning dog friendly activities for the weekend for my own dogs and would love to bring your furry friends along. We have scheduled enrichment time with endless kongs, lick mats, snuffle mats, toys and more! I have one dog of my own who is absolutely amazing with other dogs. We spend a lot of time outside as well as playing mentally stimulating games throughout the day.
About: I have been pet sitting for over 15 years and would love visit, walk, play, bathe, and stay overnight with your pets as needed. While I have a soft spot in my heart for cats, and foster kittens through HES, I've also worked as a dog grooming assistant in the past and know nuances to ALL dog breeds. My friends rely on me for their pet sitting needs and I'm looking to expand my furry friends! I am available most days. I can sit and work from your home or simply stop in and walk dogs. Just ask and I can probably accommodate! I'm a clean guest and respect other people's space. I also love to bake (at my own home) so I may leave some sweet treats for you before I leave!
“Journey is the first sitter in nearly 8 years my unpredictable cat was actually comfortable with. She was able to pet/ cuddle with Slinky each day and that made my time away SO much better. Great photos/ records. Responsive to instructions. Hope to have her back!”
About: I have been a pet owner many times through my childhood and well into adulthood. I also worked for ‘Just Fur the Weekend’, a pet boarding company where I had the opportunity to foster lovely relationships between the pet owner and pets. Trust, quality care and comfort are very important to me! I am a stay at home mom with two kids under five. We are a pet lovers household. Between the three of us your pet will have a lot of fun playdates and quality time. Routine walks and playdates are essential to maintaining a healthy and active day. Potty training for indoor/outdoor pups and precision meal planning. If any meds are necessary, we’ll make sure we’re on the same page.
“Ahhhh Hope was so amazing! I booked her on my first time using Rover to do drop ins because my dog has kennel cough. She made everything so easy and really eased my anxiety. Looking forward to booking again!”
“Erin and George are the best! It gives us such peace of mind to know our pups are in good hands when we are out of town. I loved receiving pics of our dogs while we’re away. We will definitely use them again!”
“Presley and I had a bit of a hiccup to start so I was unsure how things would go this first time. Well, let assure you I had no need to worry, as she has proven to be a superior pet care provider. In the many years I have been using Rover.com to identify pet sitters, I have never known anyone to write up such informative, upbeat, thorough daily reports. These missives were a delight to receive. As a result, I always felt confident my Ali was being well cared for. Thank you, Presley!”

About: I have over 15 years of experience caring for dogs and truly believe every pet deserves to be treated like family. When your dog is in my care, I’ll treat them like one of my own while doing my best to maintain the routine they’re familiar with so they feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I’m comfortable caring for small and medium-sized dogs, puppies, and senior dogs. Whether your pup enjoys walks, playtime, lots of cuddles, or simply having someone nearby to give them attention and companionship, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I’ll pay close attention to your instructions, feeding schedule, routines, and preferences. I’m also comfortable administering medications in pill form when needed.

Whether I’m caring for your dog in my home or yours, I will treat them like one of my own. I follow each pet parent’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, medications, and their normal daily routine. I take time to learn each dog’s personality and needs so they can feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, cuddles, and companionship, while always keeping a close eye on their well-being. I also believe in good communication so you can have peace of mind knowing your dog is being cared for with love and attention. 🐾❤️
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for many years for family & friends. I love dogs and know they are more than a pet they are family with the biggest hearts and unconditional love. I enjoy spending time with dogs and taking care of their needs. I currently have a traditional day job. I am available to walk/sit for dogs on the weekends. I can pet sit during the week if your dog is crate trained. I have a little dog, Prince, who can be sassy but is a big mama’s boy. I live on several acres with lots of woods to run around in. The yard is not fenced.
“Elizabeth was wonderful! She sent photos every visit, and was very kind and understanding when I accidentally sent her on a wild goose chase to a wrong apartment on the other side of town. Will definitely hire her again! She was great with both of our kitties, and even cleaned the apartment a bit for us.”

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 Fort Oglethorpe 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.
