About: My goal is to make sure your furry friend feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I understand that every animal deserves patience, love, or just some comforting company. I am more than happy to take care of your furry friend(s) all day on weekends or walk them M-F after 5pm. Please message me for more detailed availability if needed. I have been trained with the SPCA in California to handle large and small dogs. Caring for pets brings me joy, and I treat each one as if they were my own—because they deserve nothing less.
About: I worked with dogs on a daily basis at a Veterinary hospital. I was a boarding attendant there and gave care and playtime/exercise to them everyday. Since my husband joined the Military, I have had to leave my beloved job behind. I have a good amount of free time to care for animals. I am flexible and I am willing to work with you if you choose to work with me. I have found that I am at my happiest working with animals. I have raised numerous puppies and cared for a number of litters. I dog sit all the time. I even help my aunt out at her farm regularly. She has goats, ducks, cats, and dogs, and I am caring for all of them. Whenever I am caring for a pet, I always make sure to keep to their original routine provided as I can. But other than the routine given to me by owners (or I like to say "parents") I mainly like to make sure they are given walks/exercise daily, play with some of their favorite toys, make sure they are eating their food, getting enough to eat and drink, keeping the water fresh and clean, and making sure their environment is safe. And of course giving them love and affection. I also like to keep the parents updated on their fur babies by providing them with updated pictures and videos of them. I can always be reached by text message to answer any questions. Animals tend to gravitate toward me, and they are always in a great mood, and very happy when they are around me. I am a proud doggy mom myself. I have a toy poodle / beagle mix and we rescued a wonderful border collie/lab mix who is such a sweetie! I love animals and working with them is really rewarding. I look forward to meeting your fur babies!

“Nicole did a great job taking care of our pups. I loved getting the report cards every day showing that they were going potty and eating and drinking like they should. Our pups were happy well taken care of when we got back and knowing they were doing well helped us have a better trip. Nicole was very responsive before and during our trip so we weren't left worrying about what was going on.”

“My picky 8 year old dog loves Alyssa, who affectionately gives great belly rubs. My almost 1 year old pup needs more frequent visits, and Alyssa was wonderfully punctual. I'm grateful to have found such care, and we are booking again!”


About: I’ve loved and cared for animals for as long as I can remember. As a proud dog mom myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. I have experience caring for puppies, adult dogs, and dogs with different personalities and energy levels. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to help with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of love and attention. I treat every pet like they’re part of my family and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. I work a professional full-time schedule during weekdays, but I intentionally structure my time to provide attentive care for pets in my home and during visits. I offer doggy daycare, overnight boarding, drop-in visits, and pet sitting depending on availability. Your pet will receive plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, affection, and supervision throughout their stay. I understand how important routine is, and I do my best to maintain your pet’s normal schedule so they feel comfortable, secure, and right at home. As both a dog and cat owner myself, I know that pets are family. My home is a safe, loving, pet-friendly environment where your furry friend will be treated like one of my own. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routines, preferences, and any special care instructions before their stay. Whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, naps, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I provide regular photo and video updates, maintain a clean environment, closely monitor behavior and wellbeing, and prioritize safety at all times so you can enjoy complete peace of mind while you’re away.
“Autumn was absolutely wonderful with my dogs and they lived her! She even sent pictures updates while she was there. 10/10 would recommend to anyone and I'm excited about using here in the future!”

About: I treat every dog like family — with patience, love, and lots of playtime! I go beyond just feeding and walking; I learn each pup’s personality, routines, and needs to keep them happy, safe, and stress-free while you’re away. Reliability and genuine care are what I bring every time. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. I’m used to early walks, feeding schedules, play sessions, and keeping pets company throughout the day. Whether it’s morning cuddles, afternoon walks, or evening wind-downs, I make time to keep pets active, loved, and on routine—even on busy days. I have animals already so it’s in my blood! In my client’s home, I focus on keeping your pet’s routine consistent and stress-free. I follow feeding schedules, give lots of playtime and attention, and make sure your pet feels safe and loved in their own space. I also keep the home tidy and respect any rules you leave for me. If caring for pets in my own home, I offer a calm, pet-friendly space where your dog gets one-on-one attention, regular potty breaks, and plenty of cuddles and play. I treat them like one of my own!
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and the proud owner of two French Bulldogs—a mother and her son. I’ve been involved in every stage of their care, from assisting with the birth of a litter to administering medications and routine injections when needed. I’ve also cared for as many as eight puppies at one time, so I’m comfortable managing multiple dogs while ensuring each receives plenty of attention and care. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog enjoys playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply relaxing, I’ll tailor my care to their needs. I work full time, but I’m available before and after work as well as on weekends, allowing me to provide dependable care and consistent communication. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll care for them as if they were my own.

About: Hey my name is Nya! I'm 21 years old and I am available for dog and cat sitting gigs in Grovetown, Georgia. I am willing to travel to pick up/drop off your pet for boardings or if you prefer, do check-ins and pet sit at your house. I will provide energetic play dates or calm loving couch potato sessions depending on what your furbaby enjoys. I have grown up and cared for three dogs and one cat in my house (NONE live in my apartment with me now) they were either fosters, or family pets. But I've cared for more pets than I can count as I use to work at a daycare and boarding center located in Madison Yards for close to a year. (I also have experience with handling pet medicine, so don't be hesitant to contact me!) So I have a schedule that allows me to be home majority of the day so your pets with always have my attention and time! I live in a housing area so no major roads near my house. I also have a fenced backyard and plenty of space in the house.
About: I not only have a passion in fitness, but the well being of all furry pets, especially dogs! I treat every dog as my own, because they all have a heart just like we do and need to make sure we understand their needs as a companion. I am willing to go beyond and make sure your pet remains active, and know the importance since I have a pretty healthy 11 years old pup myself! Allow me to show you that you can become comfortable and know that your dog will be in great hands, while they are gaining a friend=) This is not a job to me, but a privilege! If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know! Hope to work with you and your wonderful dog soon! I'm an Exercise Science/Psychology graduate and trainer. My line of work is organized how I schedule it to make sure I am meeting standards and delivering the proper care. IF we agree to bring your fur babies in my home I could provide great accommodations. I have a sweet dog and cat so what ever I could do to meet needs.
About: I am home often and go for hikes a considerable amount. I've been around and owned dogs my whole life. I have a considerable amount of knowledge regarding dogs and cats and believe that I am fluent enough in their behaviors to be a great dog walker/sitter. I have lots of experience in training dogs too so I can help with any training services that may be needed. I believe dogs are important parts of any family and deserve the same love and care as a child would receive from a babysitter. Contact me anytime for your petcare needs and I will reply ASAP!!! Hello! I’m currently on an extended break from touring with the circus and looking to fill my days with hobbies. I want an excuse to get outside so dog walking is perfect. Especially since my dogs are staying in Ga this summer and I miss them loads. I will not be offering boarding at this time. I currently do not live where it is applicable. I am still available to house sit within my mile perimeter.
About: I have over 15 years experience with animals and pet sitting. From dogs, cats, rodents (guinea pigs, rats, rabbits, hamsters etc.) Birds and parrots as well as reptiles. I grew up in a house full of animals and still currently live in a house full of animals! My children and I love meeting new furry friends and would love the opportunity to hang out with yours! I have a very open schedule, I am a stay at home mom with a 7yr old, a 3 year old and a 1.5 yr old. We love going for walks. Hanging out at the park, running around our own backyard etc. We would love for your pup or other pet to join us in the fun! My schedule is open enough to allow me to travel to your home for visits and walks as well as host in my own home. I have a large fenced in yard, and my own pup to keep your pet company. Dogs are also allowed in the house and on the couch. Crates can be used as added comfort if needed. When out and about (walking) with your pet they will remain leashed and close to me at all times (no one else will be handling the leash besides me).
About: Hi, I’m Breanna. I love working with dogs and taking care of them. I enjoy having pups around the house – they really liven things up! Pet sitting brings me joy because owners are able to go on trips knowing their fur babies are taken care of and that they don't need to worry. For me, taking care of animals is not work. It’s just fun! I previously worked at a dog boarding facility where I assist with group play, potty walks, feeding, and administering medication. I have worked with every breed and can’t wait to meet your fur baby! I work from home full time so I am always around to ensure your fur baby is taken care of! This also always me to accept last minute requests! I have a small fenced yard and two fur babies of my own who love playing with other dogs and will love having the company!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Harlem stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Harlem 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Harlem with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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 sitter.
