About: Hi! I am a student and football player at Furman University. I’m a lifelong dog lover who grew up around dogs of all sizes and personalities. Caring for dogs has always been a natural part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with them, whether that’s going on walks, playing, or just giving them attention and comfort. I’m reliable, patient, and committed to making sure every dog feels safe, happy, and loved while their owner is away. I’m currently home for the month of May from college. I love being active and working out is a huge part of my daily life. Throughout the month I will sporadically be doing some shadowing in the Wealth Management space. My schedule is basically wide open and I plan to fill a lot of that time by caring for pets. I’m happy to walk your dog for as long as needed, and I also enjoy doing drop-in visits. I take pride in making sure your pet is safe, comfortable, and in good hands.

Savannah has been absolutely wonderful with Seal! From the very beginning, she went above and beyond by scheduling a meet-and-greet to make sure it was a great fit and to learn all about Seal’s needs and routine. It was clear right away how thoughtful and attentive she is. Seal looks forward to their walks every day, and it’s been such a relief knowing she’s in such caring hands. Savannah is consistently punctual, incredibly communicative, and her Rover report cards are always detailed and reassuring. She’s also been very flexible with scheduling, which has been a huge help while I’ve been adjusting to a new job and navigating a new routine. Most importantly, Savannah treats Seal with so much care, attention, and affection—it truly shows in how happy Seal is after every walk. I’m so grateful we found her and would wholeheartedly recommend Savannah to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate dog walker!

About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs my whole life, primarily large dogs up until end of life, as well as cats in the last 6 years. I’ve got extensive experience with these guys, and my love for these animals runs deep! I’m currently self-employed, so my schedule is very flexible for visiting or playing with your pets! The best times to schedule me are between 8am and 8pm, but I am open to other hours with planning in advance. :) I have a screened in yard, as well as 2 crates for small dogs and cats, comfy beds, and toys for them to play with! I also have treats and a dedicated space within my home for them to relax in.

Adam is a great dog walker. We have tow bernese mountain dogs who are, shall we say special needs dogs. :) One is reactive on leach and the other is a tripawd, and Adam handled it no problem at all. Adam also takes a lot of pics on walks which I loved!! Thanks Adam! See you next time.

About: I take pride in being a reliable and loving dog walker and sitter who truly puts pets first. I know how important it is to feel connected while you’re away, so I always send plenty of updates, photos, and check-ins. This way, you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy, safe, and cared for every step of the way. I am extremely responsible and attentive, making sure to follow each pet’s routine and needs closely—whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or just some extra snuggles. I genuinely love animals, and I believe they can feel that energy from me right away. When your pet is with me, they’re not just being looked after—they’re in a safe, loving environment where their well-being always comes first. I currently work part time at a retail store but other than that my schedule is open!! I can do early mornings, afternoon, and evening walking or check in visits! I have a fully screened in porch attached to my apartment and my apartment complex has 2 amazing dog parks along with walking paths and large sidewalks.

About: Though I’m new to rover I’ve done consistent dogsitting for family members, friends, neighbors, and friends of friends for the past two years. I absolutely adore dogs, and always get along with them no matter the breed or the age. I’m excited to get to know you and your dog! I work fully virtual so I can pay a visit to a dog any time! I’m available for boarding on the weekend and can do over night any day of the week. I’m very flexible! I am always incredibly watchful and careful with dogs I sit for, making sure to spend every single moment of my time doting on them.

About: I have experience caring for many large and energetic dogs (pitbulls, labs, golden retrievers, etc) as well as smaller dogs (pomeranian, etc) and cats. My family dog is VERY interested in other dogs on walks so I have experience managing that as well as with using a shock collar if that is something an owner would like me to do. I have a very open schedule so I'm almost always able to accept same-day requests as well as recurring ones! I am a graduate student so most of my work is independent, which gives me a very flexible schedule! I am available most days of the week. My own dog is let out in my fenced-in backyard whenever she wants and always has water & food available - I will ensure this for the pets I care for. I also have patience for her high energy and can handle excitable dogs on walks well.

About: I am a young professional and native Charlottean. I began care-giving to pets at an early age. I have been most successful with creating dog-sitting and cat-sitting opportunities by word of mouth with friends and neighbors. I know Rover will give me the opportunity to make your pet more comfortable at home and allow them get to know me better. Rover I believe is so helpful and better than boarding your pets because they are most happy in a familiar environment to them. I am passionate for helping others and understand people have busy lives, so I am here to help in anyway with your pets needs! I would be happy to meet you and your pets. I am fortunate to have a 9-5 work from home job where I can visit/stay with pets. I have plenty of spare time to relax, play, and adventure with your pet(s)! I am a very clean and organized individual who will treat your home better than my own if requested to house sit in one of my clients homes. I prefer watching pets in their own home because this is a familiar place to them and will allow them the utmost comfort while their owner(s) are away.

I couldn’t have imagined anyone better to walk my 95 pound Lab/pittie mix, Waylon Ray! Nicholas was available on extremely short notice, is kind, courteous, helpful, and sent pictures of Waylie on their walk. I have already booked a couple more weeks of walks with Nicholas, before he heads back to school for the summer. He obviously really loves dogs and Waylon Ray adored him. I’m so sorry Nicholas will be training for football this summer. He’s fantastic!

Megan takes care of our dog Mango, and it’s honestly hard to put into words how much she means to us. From the very beginning, she’s treated Mango like he’s her own—thoughtful, attentive, and so genuinely caring in a way that you just can’t fake. Mango absolutely lights up when he sees her, which says everything. She knows his personality, his routines, and all the little things that make him happiest, and she goes out of her way to make sure he feels comfortable, loved, and completely at ease. Whether it’s extra playtime, making sure he gets enough exercise, or just giving him that one-on-one attention, she always goes above and beyond. For us, the biggest thing is the peace of mind she gives—we never have to worry for a second when Mango is with her. That level of trust is priceless, and it’s something you don’t find easily. We feel incredibly lucky to have Megan in Mango’s life. She’s not just a sitter—she’s truly someone special, and we couldn’t recommend her more highly.

She is reliable, caring, and always goes above and beyond to make sure he’s happy, exercised, and well-looked-after. Draco absolutely loved his time with her, and it gave me total peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands each day. Her communication has always been excellent—updates, pictures, and notes that showed she truly cared. Even on busy days or last-minute changes, she was flexible and professional. I’m genuinely grateful for everything she’s done for us. Atlanta is lucky to have her, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and compassionate dog walker. Thank you again for everything…you will be missed!
