Alexis took great care of our critters. I have an elderly dog that has accidents and she took it all in stride and allowed us to have a stress free trip!

Samantha did a great job watching our stubborn English Bulldog. She’s reliable and gave us peace of mind while we were gone for 8 days. Our pup has some behavioral quirks but Samantha was patient and did not have any issues caring for her. We came back to a calm and relaxed pup. Our home was also left clean. Thank you Samantha!

Ava provided house sitting for our pets and provided excellent service. She was flexible when our plans changed last minute, and took great care of our fur family members, including one sweet special needs kitty. We are so very grateful for Ava!!

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, and other pets for last 8 years in my local community. I’m excited to expand to new clientele! I am currently a Graduate student at the University of Georgia and will be off for the summer and available at any time required for service. I typically visit 3-4 times a day, and can stay overnight if requested. I can take dogs on walks as many times as needed, and I will make your pet my priority in my day-to-day schedule. I am not able to bring pets to my home, but I will follow any requirements or schedules needed for your pet, in your home, so that they are able to be at peace while you are away.

Olivia followed all instructions and took amazing care of my cat. We had a longer stay, and she and Garfi became very close. She communicated well with us throughout and even looked after our house while we were away. We will definitely book her again!

About: I've got multiple years of experience handling a highly anxious dog that can be dog selective during high stress situations. I was the one primarily training my family's two dogs, as well as the one taking them out on as many walks as I was able. I have multiple years worth of experience with senior dogs that had arthritis and who needed to have their food prepped especially for easier eating. I'm currently a student at the University of Georgia and currently looking into part time summer positions, however my schedule is very flexible with daily check-ins and overnight stays during both the week and weekend are very doable. During check-ins, outside of ensuring food and water are available, I would make sure to spend time playing and hanging out with any dog and if I have time to take them on a walk I will. For overnights, I would do the same thing with the only difference being the amount of time I'd be able to spend with the dog.

As first-time Rover users, we were initially nervous, but Taryn immediately set our minds at ease. She warmly suggested a meet-and-greet to ensure it was a good fit for us and our pets. While we were away, Taryn was excellent with communication, checking in upon arrival and sending regular photos and updates. Coming home was a delight; our house was spotless, our dogs were happy, fed, and well-exercised, and Taryn had even thoughtfully started a load of household linens in the wash. We have no doubt our animals adored her and received the very best care. We will absolutely be asking Taryn to return!

About: I am a veterinary assistant and an incoming 2nd year veterinary student at UGA. As I work in a clinic, I’ve learned many signs pets tend to have when they’re upset , sick , and happy. I also have experience in medicating pets, in the case your pet requires any medication. I love all animals and enjoy taking care of them!!! I am currently working part-time at an animal clinic and i am available a majority of Sundays through Thursdays! I am always willing to work around some days and have a flexible schedule ! Depending on the pets normal schedule i will walk, feed , and give your pet lots of love. I will make sure your pet gets many potting breaks and play time to ensure they are getting as much love and care they need !

Taylor was just amazing! My husband and I go on a good amount of work trips and hate to leave our dogs at boarding. Taylor was wonderful house sitting and watching our two boys. She sent many updates throughout the day and we came home to 2 sweet doggie report cards that she made for their entire stay. Her background working in an animal hospital is also a huge plus. We came home to a clean house, and very happy boys. We hope to welcome her and her services again very soon!

About: I’ve been caring for pets for about 5 years now, from dogs to frogs! Some of my own and some from others I give each animal the love and care that they deserve. I love being outdoors in any climate whether that be hiking, jogging, or simply sitting in a field. I’d be more than happy to burn some energy with your fur baby! I work part time during the night which leaves lots of free time during the mornings to walk, feed, and check in on your pets. I occasionally have classes during the week, so I’ll already be up bright and early! I will provide your pets with loving attention, frequent walks and bathroom breaks, even playtime. I am sure to create a safe environment for your fur babies, if that means a mini play date or introduction session before sitting I am down for it all. I will stay loyal to the given instructions with proper feeding times and administer medication if/when needed.

Amanda was great with our girl! Our pup is a bit vocal and has a few quirks; like needing doors closed, a sound machine on when we’re out, and a special diet…but Amanda handled everything. Communication was easy and consistent, and we came home to a happy pup. It’s clear she really cared, and we’ve already booked her again.

Laura was absolutely wonderful with Lenny while I was out of town. I never once worried—she kept me updated with messages, photos, and videos the whole time. It was clear Lenny was well cared for, loved, and getting plenty of playtime. I would absolutely recommend Laura and will 100% use her again.

I couldn’t be happier with the care my dogs received! I have three large dogs, and she took incredible care of all of them. It was clear they were happy, relaxed, and well‑loved when I returned home. I truly appreciated the frequent updates and photos—she was more than willing to provide as many updates as I wanted, which gave me great peace of mind.
