About: I’m back on Rover by popular demand! I took a break because I was lucky enough to have consistent clients and repeat pups who trusted me with their care since 2022. Over the years, I built amazing relationships with families and their dogs, but some of my furry friends have moved away with their humans, so I’m excited to open my schedule again and meet new pups! I’ve been called a “dog nanny” because I go beyond just walks and feedings. I truly care about making every dog feel safe, loved, and understood. I treat every pup like they’re my own and take the time to learn their personality, routines, and needs. I have experience with training, reinforcing commands, and helping dogs build confidence through patience and positive attention. I have a special place in my heart for rescue and shelter dogs, especially those who may have had difficult past experiences and need extra time, compassion, and understanding to feel comfortable. Having cared for family dogs through all stages of life, including their senior years, I’m comfortable providing medication support, extra patience, and attentive care for older dogs. I also love keeping up with high-energy pups who need playtime, exercise, enrichment, and lots of engagement. Whether your dog is a playful puppy learning new commands, an energetic adventure buddy, a shy rescue learning to trust, or a sweet senior needing extra care, my goal is to provide the same love, patience, and attention I would want for my own pets. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I work from home and have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. I’m also available on weekends and am open to last-minute requests when my schedule allows. As a dog owner, especially of larger breeds, I understand that life can be unpredictable and that sometimes you need someone reliable who can step in and make things easier. I value clear communication and transparency, so I’ll always be upfront about my availability and your pet’s care. I provide a calm, comfortable, and pet-friendly environment where dogs can feel safe and at home. I understand that every dog has different needs, so I take time to learn their routines, personalities, and comfort levels. My home is a quiet space where pets can relax, receive plenty of attention, and maintain a sense of normalcy while their owners are away. I provide regular potty breaks, playtime, enrichment, and lots of affection while also respecting when a dog needs quiet time to rest. As a dog owner, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I prioritize safety, communication, and making sure each dog feels comfortable in my care.

About: I’ve had experience working with dogs for almost my entire life with about 10+ years of walking and sitting the dogs of many close family members and friends. I have previous experience taking care of senior animals, such as my 16 year old Westie Schnauzer who required daily shots of insulin. I currently have two 3 year old fur babies! One cuddly, curious Tabby cat and one playful, yet lazy mixed Shepard. Both of which are very chatty and opinionated at times! We’ve learned to speak each other’s languages through repetition and reward. Over the years, I’ve taught my Shepard a whole assortment of tricks that he loves to show off! During my visits, I like to really figure out what the dog wants to do whether that be going for long walks in the park, playing with toys for hours, or just chilling out on the couch getting cuddles. Any health requirements or specific treatment can be handled without any problem as long as I’m given prior notice and instruction. I am a freelance creative who enjoys being outside more than anything. Walking my own dog is the highlight of my day, and walking yours will just add to the fun! The mornings are prime time for me, however, I do have a very flexible schedule to attend to your fur babies! I personally am very particular about things in my home, so I will be sure to give that same respect to you! Dogs stay off the couch? No problem! Cat loves to scratch something they shouldn’t? I’m keeping an eye out! Any and all instructions will be held with the upmost care.

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, horses, chickens, and plenty of other furry, feathered, and even scaly friends, for over 25 years, including my own pets as well as those of friends and family. I understand that every pet has a different personality. I believe every pet deserves to be met where they are, and I take the time to earn their trust. Whether your pet loves to play, prefers quiet companionship, or needs a little extra patience, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets with the same love and attention I give my own. As a self employed hairstylist, my schedule is flexible and gives me time throughout the day for pet visits and walks. I’m available mornings, afternoons, evenings, when my schedule allows, and I always do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine whenever possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the time to learn their routine, respect your home, and provide updates with photos so you can relax while you’re away. I always double check doors, gates, leashes, and feeding instructions, and I’ll care for your pet with the same attention and patience I give my own. I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and always let them set the pace when building trust.

“Luke did a great job with Lucy! He was communicative, punctual, and super kind. Lucy clearly loved him, which means the world to me. I really appreciated the photos, and I’ll definitely be rebooking. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve taken care of pets for 15 years- and I have been a reliable caretaker for many friends and neighbors. I have two dogs myself - two cavaliers who are incredibly chill and sweet boys. I love taking care of other cavaliers, but accept all breeds! I volunteer at Lifeline monthly, and that has given me experience to handle many kinds of dogs. I have a special place in my heart for senior pups! I currently work in an office M-W. I usually get home around 4:30p. I work from home on Th/F. So if you are going in a weekend getaway- I’m your girl! I don’t currently offer house sitting- but am comfortable with having dogs in my home. I have two cavaliers of my own- and I take them out on walks every morning and night. We love to sit outside and watch the squirrels, and your dog would also be incorporated into this routine.

“Anisha has been a wonderful walker for our sweet Bear. She is reliable and has excellent communication skills. Plus our dog responds very well to her calm demeanor.”

About: I’m an animal lover, and have 2 cats of my own. I’ve recently returned to Atlanta after 4 years in Europe. I’ve grown up taking care of both cats and dogs - at the peak we had 4 cats and 2 dogs. I’ve also done pet sitting for friends, family and internationally. I’ve volunteered and fostered dogs through LifeLine, so I have experience with a wide array of ages and temperaments. I have a hybrid job which gives me increased flexibility during the week to care for your family members. I work 9-5, but on my office days I can easily pop home at lunch to check on your pets. Other days of the week, I’ll be working at home. I have a fenced in back yard, so your dog can roam around and explore. I also have 3 bedrooms, so I can separate or crate pets as well as needed to ensure they’re safe and comfortable.

About: Family, friends and neighbors have tristede to feed, watch, and take care of their beloved pets while they're out of town, or when they need a sitter unexpectedly. I have cared for both cats and dogs, and enjoyed spending time with animals. I currently work from home, leaving me with a flexible schedule allowing me to drop-in and check on your pets throughout the day, as well as leaving ample time in the morning and evenings to go for walks! Since I work from home, I am available to offer frequent bathroom breaks, and am available to keep your pets company while they're staying with me.

About: I’ve always had pets growing up and always loved animals of every kind. I used to hang out at and volunteer at my local dog park. I cannot wait to meet and befriend yours! I have a very flexible job and work close to my home. I will have time to come take care of your pets whenever needed! I have a very large fenced in yard, so lots to explore! I have plenty of couches and chairs your pets are more than welcome to lounge on.

“For anyone who has a older dog, please book with Michael. He is the best!! His level of care snd detail to your dog will make you feel great knowing they are in good hands.”

“Nili has been a wonderful dog walker! She is flexible and communicates well, and takes great care of my dog. She always sends picture updates along with a summary of their walk when she returns, and makes sure he has enough water before she leaves! I trust Nili to treat my dog like my own on days I work long shifts. I highly recommend her!”

About: I know how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone else, so I do my best to provide the same level of care and attention I would want for my own pets. I've cared for many dogs and cats with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I pay close attention to body language and behavior, which helps me understand when a pet wants to play, needs space, or is feeling anxious. Whether your pet is outgoing or shy, my goal is to build trust, keep them comfortable, and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I work from home most of the time and have a flexible schedule, which means plenty of attention for your pet. My Border Collie loves having furry guests, and they’ll enjoy frequent potty breaks in the shared backyard, daily walks, and playtime at the community dog park located right behind my unit. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a clean, pet-friendly environment with close supervision throughout the day. I follow each pet's routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I also provide updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for.

About: Growing up my coaches did Rover. I stayed with them very often and helped them take care of their 6 dogs as well as any pets they were taking care of for work. I am a full time college student saying at home. Majority of my code is held online so I am very flexible when it comes to pick up and drop offs! I will make sure to follow the pet parents instructions as no one knows their children better than the parent. I understand that all pets are different so it is important to pay special attention to direction.

“Sydney was punctual and kind. Thanks for walking Jah!”

“Toney has been great with Sebastian. He was available last minute (same day!), is so sweet with my pup, and always sends me pics while they are on their walks. He even plays soothing music and brings special treats. I will definitely be using Toney again.”

About: Hey my name is Brionna short for Brii and I love animals especially dogs and cats. I've taken care of a lot of animals over the course of 10 years I got my first dog from a breeding kennel when I was 10. He was a Yorkie Yorkshire and his name was Midnight. And I can tell you he was the best dog you could ever ask for. He was there for me through thick and thin, I actually lost him around my birthday in January 2 years ago and it broke my heart so much. I nursed him when he got really sick from his blood sugar being to low because he was the smaller one of his siblings but I loved him all just the same. I currently volunteer at an animal shelter where I help care for dogs and cats with different personalities and energy levels, including the shy anddd the anxious. Animals have always had a soft place in my heart so whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, medication reminders, or just someone calm and caring around while you’re away, I’d love to help. I’m comfortable with cats, small dogs, large dogs, and high-energy pets. Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine naturally because I already care for animals in my home and through volunteering. Each day, I’m responsible for my cat Domino, making sure he’s fed, groomed, exercised, and given attention and care throughout the day. I also care for my husky, Ice, who keeps me active with daily walks, playtime, and structured routine. On a weekly basis, I volunteer at the Fulton County Animal Services (Lifeline Project), where I help care for and socialize cats with different personalities and needs. Because animals are already a big part of my everyday life, I’m very consistent, attentive, and comfortable fitting pet care into my schedule reliably. I care for pets by following their normal routines as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and calm, especially in new environments or when they are anxious. In a client’s home, I respect the space and keep everything clean while making sure the pet is well cared for and comfortable. I also like to provide hourly update’s and photos so owners can feel confident their pet is safe and happy.

“Mia is a consummate professional. Wholly reliable and proactive. She has treated my dog with gentleness and kindness and I would recommend her to anyone”
