About: I have grown up with many animals. I have had all different types of breeds from a collie, chihuahua, husky, to a Great Dane. I have 2 of my own fur babies who are so sweet & playful. I’m a caring, reliable pet lover who understands how important it is to trust someone with your fur baby. I treat every pet like they’re my own—making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to follow your pet’s routine to keep things consistent and stress-free. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just extra cuddles, I’m here to give your pet the care and attention they deserve while giving you peace of mind. I have let sit for many families before and have never had any issues!! I am a stay at home mom with my two littles so I am always home! I do have 2 dogs of my own so we go for walks, the dog park, or just play fetch out back. I am always here to keep an eye on the pups and make sure they’re well taken care of. My apartment has a dog park where your fur baby can play! I also have 2 dogs of my own to help keep your baby entertained. I care for pets in my home the same way I care for my own—with patience, love, and attention to detail. I keep a clean, pet-safe space and make sure each pet gets personalized care, whether that’s sticking to their routine, extra playtime, or just a cozy place to rest.
“I couldn’t have asked for a better person to walk my high energy pup. Great communication, flexibility in availability, competent and skilled in the management of my pup which gives me such comfort in knowing that my pup is being cared for at the highest possible level by such a pleasant, friendly and warm hearted person such as Alexis and my pup absolutely looks forward to his time with her.”
“My Suzy loves her Madison, and Madison puts up with the crazy fluff ball of unbridled doodle energy that is my Suzy. Suzy gets so excited when she sees Madison — it says everything about the bond she’s built with my girl. Madison treats my dog like her own, and that gives me such peace of mind.”

About: I’ve had the pleasure of taking care of dogs since childhood. I’ve raised my own and helped take care of many others. I love them. I’m currently available afternoons and evenings all week long, so my schedule is somewhat clear for anyone needing a sitter. Could be on short notice or a continuous gig if needed. You can expect your pets to enjoy lots of playtime/affection. They are always spoiled with me. I’m trustworthy and will give your fur baby the upmost respect and loving care they deserve. Safety is a priority so I will always update and communicate any concerns and hope owners will as well.
About: Besides owning up to three cats in my household, I have volunteered my time (around 3-5 times a week) at Paws Humane Society in Columbus, Georgia. There I would sit with kittens/cats and give them much needed attention, as well as walk the dogs and play in their rooms. Columbus is my home away from home, just without my lovely pets! So being able to see and take care of other’s pets fills my heart! Besides my flexible job and my school, I can fit anything into my schedule! I will respect my clients home and rules that pertain to it, anything that needs to be done will get done efficiently and humanely. The most important part is taking care of your pets and I will make sure they are safe and loved while their owner is away!
“Ansley and our dog get along so well. Our dog is very stubborn and doesn’t like to walk without us. Ansley was able to talk a full walk with her on day 2! Now our dog is so excited to see her!”
“Our dog loves Danielle! She's been very accommodating every time we need her and she was able to meet us last minute and do a meet and greet with us when we were in a bind. We've had drop ins or walks multiple times now and everything has been great!”
About: I’ve been asked to pet sit for a variety of pets over the years. Anywhere from cats and dogs to bearded dragons and horses! I’m a quick learner and can adapt just as fast to match whatever needs are required. I also own two mixed dogs and an orange tabby cat myself. I am a newly wed who recently moved into town and am still getting settled. Until I get connected with my work, I have a TON of free time! I’d love to get to be surrounded by fur babies as much as possible! I love to let the critters set the pace when getting to know me. I believe there needs to be an established bond of trust before anything else. And I LOVE to love on them once they let me! I can never get enough pets and snuggles! I want them to feel as though I’m a friend and family member rather than a stranger. And the same goes for their human parents too! I love to connect with my clientele and keep them updated as much as possible to ensure they feel confident that their babies are taken care of :)

About: WARNING- I send soooooo many pic and video updates to pet parents. If you don’t like for constant updates I may not be the sitter for you. I am a huge dog person, my aunt is a veterinary technician, and since I was a child, I went to work with her every weekend to assist her with cleaning the kennels, sitting with the dogs the veterinary clinic owned. Observing the animals behavior. I’ve owned a dog since I was five years old. Dogs have ALWAYS been a passion of mine. Anytime I see one out and about, I always ask if I can pet it or Love on it. I currently have an American Staffordshire Terrier named Kira Bella, I’ve owned her for four years. She is an ex show dog. She’s my child. I treat her no differently than a human would treat their own child. So I know the importance of finding the right person to care for your dog or cat. I am very picky about who watches my girl so I understand, just know that your fur baby is in good hands with me and I will treat them like they are my own fur baby.

I do require a meet and greet beforehand to make sure we are compatible, if we vibe well together then I will book you in right away! I own my own business so I make my own hours, I’ll have plenty of time to care for your babies as my work is very flexible. I will treat your fur baby like they are my own, if they are allowed on the furniture, I will cuddle with them. If they need to be crated , I have no problem crating them. If they need medication I have no problem giving it to your baby. I was raised with an aunt that is a veterinary technician so I spent a lot of time at the vet clinic with her learning how to handle animals and give them medication.
“Tatum is amazing! My pup and I just moved to the area and I was so nervous about her adjusting to a new place and not having my family around to help take her out and go on walks during the day. Tatum helped ease all of those worries. She provides incredible updates with the cutest photos. The best of all is that my dog absolutely loves her and is always excited to see her. She’s made being in a new place so much easier!”
About: Experience includes growing up with a mini farm to raising sugar gliders in college and now having my two yorkiepoo fur babies for the last 6 years. My toddler son and I have been doing drop in visits for our neighbors dogs for a couple years now and really enjoy the cuddles and play time! I’m a SAHM so my schedule is pretty open 7 days a week for drop by visits to include walks, potty breaks and play time. Having an open schedule makes it easy to pop over to your home to let your furry loved ones out to stretch their legs, be fed, play some ball, get tummy rubs or for walks. My two small sons are always with me but one spends most of his day snoozing while my 2 year old toddler would love nothing more than to throw the ball 100 or more times for your furry friend.
“Jessica is great with Ed! He cannot wait to go for his walks with her and she brings him home tired and ready to nap! That’s not easy to do with a Doberman puppy! She is dependable and communicates well! Hire her!”

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Fortson. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

Every walker 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.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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.
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 walker.
