“Jess did a great job as always with our 3 babies! Always is a great communicator and leaves the house spotless. We have used many times and always welcomed in our home! Our 3 babies love her!!”
“As always, Lillian was attentive, responsible and kind and my dog absolutely loves her. She took great care of him and I always feel like he's in good hands with Lillian!”
“Devan regularly pet sits for our two cats and they love him! He’s professional, courteous and always leaves the place clean and the babies happy. We’re so thankful for Devan!”
“Kira took great care of our senior dog for a weekend. She provided regular updates and left our home very tidy. We will definitely use Kira again!”
“She was amazing will definitely book again! She always kept the updates coming where I didn’t have to wonder about anything with my dogs. & also my very skittish shy-like dog actually was opening up and got along with her as well!”
“Bryan was excellent! This was my first time using Rover or hiring someone who wasn’t already a friend and my experience was perfect in every way. Maggie is a very sweet and easy dog but also is a rescue with a good bit of separation anxiety so she has not typically done very well when I travel in the past, even with people she knows. But Bryan was just what Maggie needed—she was perhaps even happier when I got back than before I left! Bryan was great about sharing daily check-ins and pictures and took excellent care of Maggie and my home. We will definitely be booking him again!”
“Scott did a great job watching our two pups for the weekend! We were out of town for a wedding and asked Scott to stay at our home with our dogs, one of whom is elderly. Scott was extremely communicative, sent pictures and updates throughout his stay. He even washed his sheets and towels and kept our home clean! We will not hesitate to have Scott watch our pups again!”
“Delfina was attentive to Nash and super communicative with us throughout her stay! Nash is a bit of a complicated dog so we appreciated her attention to all his unique needs!”
“Alec is very communicative and patient with my animals, especially my oldest who needs some help. This is my second time booking with him and i would again.”
“Jayla did an awesome job watching my dog and cat. She keep in touching daily sending cute videos of my 2 fur babies. She kept them on their schedules, which I so appreciate! I came home to a neat apartment....she even made her bed! I will definitely be using her again in the future!!”
“Diamond is great! She’s so sweet, and our two husky mixes loved her. We were able to book with her very last minute for house sitting. Everything went smoothly with our anxious dog (the reason we needed a sitter), and she even recommended some awesome places in Atlanta to eat while we were out! I hope we’re as lucky if we ever need to use Rover back in our home state.”
“Deondre was wonderful! I needed a last minute sitter as my dog recently had an injury to his back and cannot be left alone. Deondre stepped up and was able to come and sit with him the next day. He even carried my 65 pound pit mix up and down the stairs! Would definitely recommend him - especially for bigger dogs :)”
“Abigail was fantastic! I really appreciated her high level of communication and frequent status updates on our doggo. I could tell early on she was someone we could trust and she did not disappoint! I will be looking to use her again. Highly recommend!!”
“Whitney is wonderful! She took great care of Birdie and also our home. She was easy to communicate with and sent cute photos of Birdie. She brought in packages and even stripped the sheets from her bed before she left. I highly recommend Whitney if you’re looking for a sitter in the Atlanta area. She’s awesome!!!”
“Tevin did a great job caring for my senior dog, who needs meds and is incontinent. He kept me updated with pics and videos, was easy to communicate with, and left the house spotless. Would definitely book again!”
“Tabitha was incredible. She took great care of our place and our pups. She sent regular updates, great pictures, and she talked about my dogs like she really got to know them. 10/10 definitely recommend”
“Brigitte was absolutely INCREDIBLE with watching our 3 cats and our apartment for 16 days while we were away on our honeymoon!! One of our cats can be a finicky eater and have some digestion issues, but she did wonderfully while in Brigitte’s care. We got daily updates, if not multiple, of our fur babies and how they were doing, which they got plenty of pets, snuggles, and treats! Our last vacation we had a sitter come in once a day and I was constantly checking the our cat camera to make sure our cats were ok—with Brigitte there and how comfortable our communication was I didn’t check our cat cam ONCE our entire honeymoon! She really did put our minds at ease. We will definitely be coming back to Brigitte if we are ever looking for someone to watch our cats while we’re away!!”
“Working with Julia was the perfect experience! She sent lots of pictures, took our dog on multiple walks and was great at communicating throughout the entire process. She’s friendly, reliable and trustworthy and we would definitely love to work with her again!”
About: Growing up my family would always take in someone's dog for the week or watch someone's cat for the weekend. Taking care of other fur babies became my norm. I've taken care of all kinds of pets. Puppies, kitties, huskies, and lots of older cats. I'm excited to lend a helping hand to both you and your pet. I'm currently working four days a week from 10:00 to 6:00, sometimes getting off earlier or starting my day later, but I'm free Monday through Wednesday to help care for your pets. I'm also free after work to walk any pets. I have worked with multiple pets with health problems or anxiety, so I understand that your pets need attention, care and direction in some situations. I'm confident in supporting your pets needs.
“Ayana was amazing once again. This was my first time leaving Emmett at home for a trip and knowing she was there caring for my baby put my mind at ease. Ayana spent time with Emmett and he seemed so happy when I got home. I had a great experience!”

“Sharissa helped us care for our dog and three cats before she moved to Georgia to attend SCAD. Her presence in our home brought peace, and she quickly became someone we trusted not only with our pets but with the rhythm of our household. She was attentive to each animal’s unique personality—from soothing our shy cat with gentle calm to keeping our energetic pup engaged and happy. Sharissa consistently went above and beyond, whether that meant giving timely updates, handling small unexpected issues with grace, or simply making sure our pets felt loved while we were away. Her warmth, responsibility, and intuitive care made a lasting impression on our family. We wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a compassionate, dependable sitter.”

Oakland City pet parents share their Rover experiences
Even though it was so last min Deondre pulled through! we’re in town celebrating our daughter’s birthday and we’re out of options with a dog sitter due to a cancellation but he really saved the day! Thank you so much for your part in making our baby girls day one to remember ❤️
WOW. I cannot say enough. We finally found "the one"; 10/10 – Drea is a dream! We couldn’t have asked for a better dogsitter than Drea. From the start, she was professional, attentive, and clearly experienced. She followed every instruction we left, kept us in the loop with regular updates and photos, and most importantly — spoiled our dog rotten in the best way possible. It was such a relief to know our pup was not only cared for, but truly loved while we were away. She really allowed us to ENJOY our vacation. On top of that, we came home to a house that was cleaner than we left it! That level of care and respect is so rare — and so appreciated. If you're looking for someone who treats your home and pets like her own, Drea is it. 10/10 across the board — we’d hire her again in a heartbeat.
Sydney has always taken great care of our pets and we are lucky that she's available when we need her.
Tevin allows me not to worry about my elderly dog when I head out of town. He’s a good communicator and clearly cares about dogs!
I can’t say enough great things about Jess! From the moment she met Barry and Winnie, I knew my pups were in loving, capable hands. She went above and beyond—daily walks, cuddle sessions, photo updates, and so much thoughtful attention to all their quirky little habits. I came home to two happy, relaxed dogs and a spotless house. Jess gave me such peace of mind while I was away. Barry and Winnie clearly adored her (I’m pretty sure they were a little sad to see her go!). If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets and home like her own, Jess is the one. Truly exceptional! 🐾💛
It was our first time having anyone house-sit with our pups, and Brigitte was AMAZING! She was punctual and communicative, and while we were away, she provided so many updates and pictures of our pups! It gave us peace of mind to know that someone so reliable was with our pups, and we were able to enjoy our trip worry-free. I highly recommend Brigitte - she's professional, reliable, and showered our pups with love while we were away. Thank you, Brigitte!
Jess took amazing care of my girls and home! The communication was great and I loved the frequent updates and photos. Will definitely book with her again!
Laura was so caring and attentive to our three very energetic and noisy pets! She was communicative and sent daily updates. When we returned home the pets seemed happy and well-cared for. Laura went above and beyond when we had multiple maintenance issues in our house right before departure. She took everything in stride, and we didn’t have to worry. We would happily have Laura back!
Telecia was amazing! 🤩 super easy to work with and willing to help us on such a quick turn around! She arrived timely and was super great with the pups from the beginning! We highly recommend her!
Diamond is so sweet and great with our anxious dog Bruno! She stayed with him while we were gone for the day, sent us updates throughout the day and made sure he was comfortable all day!
Jaan was great with Kanna and took care of our home. I appreciated his responsiveness and open communication. It was so helpful to see Kanna go on so many walks and be happy outdoors at her own home. I would definitely ask Jaan to come back :)
Ayshah is truly one of the best sitters I’ve found on rover. I believe she goes above and beyond for both you as a pet parent AND your dog. So impressive, highly highly recommend.
Melody did wonderful with my large GSDs that can be a lot to handle in unfamiliar situations. They loved her. She gave them the best brushing that they have had recently. Only one of them really likes to be brushed. The other you have to bribe with treats, but she did both. I’d definitely book with her again.
Really thankful for Drew and his partner AND October. I had a sudden emergency emerge and they were so helpful. Truly grateful for them. They took great care of her and October seems like such a friendly dog too. I trust them and plan to be in contact with them!!
Second time Maggie sit Louis for us and we are very thankful to have found her. We will for sure be asking her to watch out our fur baby again soon! Thanks Maggie 😊
Aimee was great - would definitely recommend - appreciate her allowing our travels to be worry-free!
Julia did a great job walking, feeding, and spending time with my dog when we were out of town! She provided great updates and came at all the times we agreed on. I will definitely continue to book with her!
Sarah took such good care of Deja and our home while we were gone! Sent a ton of updates and pics so I never had to worry about Deja while we were on vacation. I could tell Sarah cares for Deja so much and that Deja feels so comfortable with her! Would love to book Sarah again for house sitting in the future! She’s amazing! 🥰
