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.
About: I have experience caring for others and personal dogs, cats, and other household pets and I am great with giving them plenty of attention. I understand that every pet has its own personality and routine, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable and cared for. I have a flexible schedule and can make time throughout the week to care for pets. So I am available for walks, feeding, play, and general pet care. Pet safety and well-being are my top priorities. I’ll follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any special requests. I make sure pets have fresh water, plenty of attention. I also provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is being cared for.

I’m the owner of Peaceful Paws with Finesse, offering calm, in-home dog boarding and sitting in Jonesboro. I specialize in providing a low-stress, peaceful environment that’s ideal for dogs who do best in a quiet home setting rather than busy kennels or high-energy daycares. 🐾 Limited-capacity care 🐾 Personalized attention 🐾 Clean, safe, and calm environment I’m attentive, communicative, and intentional about each booking to ensure every dog feels comfortable, secure, and well-cared for. Updates and photos are provided so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. If your dog thrives in a relaxed, home-style setting, Peaceful Paws with Finesse may be the perfect fit.

I have a large unfenced yard with two friendly dogs to keep yours company. I take dogs out on leashes for walks and can crate dogs if needed.
“Briony was amazing with Cooper and he really enjoyed his time with her! It was my first time leaving him with a new person. She was very patient, communicative, supportive while I was away. She really went out of her way to make sure I was comfortable with the care she provided. Cooper had several hot spots that were in different phases of healing. She was very attentive to his care and made sure he got what he needed during every visit. Furthermore, after a power outage, my fridge had a leak. She communicated that to me asap and did what she could to ensure there was no additional damage. 10/10 would definitely recommend!!!”
About: I offer a wide variety of pet care from puppies to senior pets!! I am familiar with giving medicine (as needed) and giving accommodations for pets that need it. I have experience with training pups and the ability to uphold the training already given. I currently have sunday-tuesday off and am available for walks and drop in visits on those days. I am available for boarding at my house all week. Other availability can be made upon request. I respect everyone’s space as I would want to be respected. That extends to you entrusting me to care for your fur baby. At my house, pup’s will be crated when I am not home and will have time to exert energy daily. At your home, I will assume whatever routine you provide me until your return.

I sometimes work half days on Saturdays, but would be available after 1:30pm on those days. I am available every Sunday. Taking care of animals is more than just feeding and physically caring for them. I make sure to bond with the animals so that we can have a connection and not just physical care.
About: I've had more than 3 pets since a young child. I recently housed a cat for a year or two after someone was unable to take care of it.

I am at home and available to take the pet for walks and give the care they need. I currently work from home and on the days I may need to go in , I have a pet friendly work place.

“Amazing sitter! She sent so many pictures on the rover card and went above and beyond during the booking when there was a emergency. She followed all the instructions carefully and was always on-time. Will definitely book again! Highly recommend”
“I have such amazing things to say about Marisa!! First of all she is just a great person! Second off, I have a very stubborn 6 year old German shepherd that is extremely protective of his home and somewhat standoffish at first. We had a meet and greet a few days before our trip and max seemed to like her so we felt confident it would work out. After several treats and a few visits max warmed right up to her and now they are best buds! She took her time and got to know the big sweet boy underneath his stubbornness lol! We will definitely be rebooking with her every time we are out of town! I recommend her 1000%!”
“Sean was our first experience hiring someone to look after our girls. He was extremely responsive, kept us updated, and spent time with our babies. One of them consistently had accidents while we were gone but Sean took care of it every single day no problem. He made sure to spend some time with them in the yard and gave them some brushing due to it being shedding season! Since he lives close to us, he would pop by in to check on them in the afternoon. One of our babies started showing some scary symptoms our last night of vacation and Sean cared as if it was one of his own babies. Sean was fantastic and we highly recommend hiring him!”
“Excellent! Incredibly communicative with visits to our home to check on the cats. Audrianna sent photos when she could, of course our shy kitties didn't often come out for her visit. I'm at ease knowing she's watching our furry family members.”
About: I have been working at boarding facilities, vet clinics,rescues and animal shelters since I was 17 (8 years professional experience!) and am currently working on getting licensed to be a vet tech. I have done both shelter work and TNR. I have handled countless scared and anxious animals as well as rambunctious energy filled babies so I have plenty experience with handling timid animals as well! This is my passion; I do my best to provide the best care that I can for your pet! I am also trained on animal behavior and medicating. I have plenty experience with elderly animals and pets with health concerns. Anything else you'd like to know I'd be happy to answer any questions! I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby. I am currently working part time so I have plenty of spare time to spend with your baby! I am usually naturally an early riser and a bit of a night owl so I am prepared for lots of different schedules and routines! I follow each animals' schedule to the T if possible. As well as providing treats and enrichment throughout the entire visit! I also make sure to give them lots of attention and accommodate any sleeping arrangements your animals are used to.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Riverdale
Kerry did an amazing job caring for my girls. From the pictures and updates she sent, I could tell they felt comfortable and trusted her. I truly appreciate the care, attention, and support she provided while I was out of town. As a first-time mom navigating postpartum, being away from them was difficult, and Kerry went above and beyond to reassure me. Whenever I felt nervous or anxious, she made sure I knew they were doing well. She even sent me a video of my dog when I shared concerns that she might be missing me, which meant so much. Kerry made me feel completely comfortable and confident in her ability to care for my girls. She also captured some amazing group pictures that I will cherish. I highly recommend booking with her she is thoughtful, caring, and truly wonderful at what she does.
I can’t say enough good things about Mary. She took such amazing care of my dog, Pixie, while I was on vacation. From the start, Mary was reliable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. I got regular updates and photos that showed just how happy and comfortable Pixie was — it gave me total peace of mind while I was away. When I came home, Pixie was relaxed, well cared for, and clearly had a great time. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Mary again and highly recommend Mary to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving pet sitter. Thank you so much, Mary, for treating Pixie like your own! 🐾

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Riverdale stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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 Riverdale 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 .

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 Riverdale with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
