About: Hi! I'm Mariangely, and I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your dog. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I take the time to learn each dog's routine, personality, and needs so they receive the same care they're used to at home. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply relaxing, I'll make sure they get plenty of attention and affection. You'll never have to wonder how your dog is doing I love sending photo and video updates so you can enjoy your time away with complete peace of mind. I treat every dog with patience, kindness, and respect, and I'll always follow your care instructions closely. I can't wait to meet you and give your furry family member the love and care they deserve! As a student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to balance my classes while providing loving and attentive pet care. I plan my day around my schedule and the needs of the pets in my care, making sure they receive regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of affection. I’m generally more available in the afternoons, evenings, and on weekends. Although I have classes during the week, I always communicate my availability in advance to ensure your pet’s routine is a good fit. I also have a sweet, calm Toy Poodle who is friendly with other dogs. I provide regular photo and video updates so you can feel confident your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. I speak both English and Spanish and am happy to communicate in either language! I understand that every pet has a unique routine and personality. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, walking routines, and any special requests. I'll send regular photo and video updates so you can feel confident your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable, loved, and stress-free while you're away. I also speak Spanish, so I’m happy to communicate with pet parents in either English or Spanish!
“Susan did some drop-in visits with our 3 boys and they took to her quite quickly. She's attentive and professional. We're looking forward to her staying with them for longer stays.”
“Karen did a great job. I really appreciated her detailed reports on her visits along with the pictures. I felt secure in knowing my cats were being well taken care of while we were out of town.”
“Forrest was great! He made an initial visit to my house with me present so that my dogs would get acclimated to him, which I appreciated. He was very communicative about when he would be arriving for the scheduled visits and was timely. He always provided multiple pictures of my pups during each visit. I definitely recommend Forrest and will likely hire him again for whenever we need my dogs sitted!”
About: I have had dogs for as long as I can remember. From walking my neighbors dog as a young child to having many dogs of my own I love pups of all types! I have a cutie dog of my own, Roy. People tell me I am a dog whisperer! Every dog I meet loves me and even timid shy ones friend up to me. My main clients dog went from being scared of the stares and never coming downstairs to sitting on her lap while in her office and hanging his head out of the car window! All he needed was a little courage! I took him all around town with me and he is now out of the house more than he has ever been! I own my own business so am super flexible with walking. I do it because I love it and use the app a lot for my own dog! I care for pets by being gentle, calm slow and making them as comfortable as possible. I follow the rules in your descriptions and am very detail oriented!
About: While I don’t currently have a pet of my own, I miss my family pets dearly! Looking to spend some spare time in my schedule loving on dogs in my community and getting some extra steps in! I work a full-time 9-5 job but am free most evenings and weekends. I am happy to provide walking services during these times or stay in-home with your pet, if our schedules align 😊 Every pet deserves to feel safe and cared for, which is what I strive for! If required to enter your home for services, I treat client’s space with respect and leave things tidy 😊
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. Growing up, I was the go to pet sitter for family and friends, and I’ve had plenty of hands on experience with everything from walks and feedings to playtime, baths, and giving pets the attention they deserve. My goal is to make both you and your furry friend feel completely comfortable and confident in my care. I understand how much your pet means to you they’re family and I treat them with the same love, patience, and respect. Whatever your pet’s needs are, I’m always willing to go above and beyond to make sure they’re happy, safe, and well taken care of. Whether it's sticking to a specific routine, following special instructions, or just giving extra snuggles, I’m here for it all! Currently I am working part time so I have more than enough time to keep them company & have some fun go for walks and give them the best cuddles ! Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, my top priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for just like they would with you. If your pet is staying with me, I’ll do everything I can to create a calm, cozy environment that matches their routine and needs. I always follow any specific instructions you leave feeding schedules, walks, medications, or quirks that make your pet unique. If I’m in your home, I’ll treat it with the utmost respect and keep your pet’s routine as familiar as possible. I take safety seriously and never leave pets unattended in unfamiliar situations. And of course, you’ll receive plenty of updates, including photos and videos, so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I want you to know your pet is not only in good hands but also having a great time! Side note: please please be very clear in your instructions and say exactly what you’d like and how you’d like me to take care of your fur babies it’s sooo helpful for me. Thank you!
“Elle was great!! Even though my kitty cat wasn’t very welcoming Elle gave her the best care! I’m sure Eisley was thankful even though she didn’t show it. She kept Eisley’s litter box and food area very clean. She even took out the trash in the last day. We will definitely use Elle again in the future! Thank you so much Elle! I didn’t have to worry about my girl while I was out of the country ??”
“Alana provided excellent care for Matty and Mcgoo. I strongly recommend her for taking care of your pets while on a vacation or business trip. She contacted us and made all the coordination prior to our trip insure they were cared for in our absence. V/r, Ben”
About: I have 12 years of experience working with dogs and cats. Throughout those years, I’ve learned what is most important is actually caring about the one you’re taking care of. This is something that can’t be taught but is an aspect of love, and man do I love animals! I am currently a stay at home mom. Boarding is my most flexible option, but I can do drop in visits and walks at your residence as well. I homeschool my two daughters (ages 3 and 6), that being the case, my daughter’s will most likely be coming along for drop in visits and walks if those services are requested. With that being said and to be completely transparent before requesting a service with us, If your dog is not comfortable around children, we are not a good fit for you. I typically allow dogs to have freedom and space to walk and run around, but if you prefer them to be in a crate that works as well. I have a spacious porch and many walking trails near the chattahoochee river that me and my two daughters go on almost daily. I can assure you that they will get plenty of exercise!
“Kati did a phenomenal job looking after our cat Fritz. She was so communicative and sent me a detailed update with every drop in. Kati took the best pictures and cared for him as if he was her own! This was the first time we have left our kitty with someone we didn’t know. I felt so reassured and had no worries about Fritz when we were gone. I couldn’t recommend Kati enough!”
About: I am a lover of animals who has always wanted one of her own, but due to roommate allergies and apartment restrictions I never have. Therefore I'm forced to love on all my friends pets. One of my best friends calls me her dog's support human, because I'm one of the only people she took a liking to immediately and loves when I come over. I grew up with cats and love how loving or temperamental they can be. If you want someone who will absolutely love on your animal like they were their own, I'm your girl. I'm available to house sit, drop ins and walks (weekends mostly or early morning / late a night needs, feedings, etc. I work by the perimeter mall and am remote on Fridays only. I do have some flexibility, but want you to be aware that M-Thu I can only commit to dogs that can go 8 hours without being let out for a break. If you are close to the perimeter mall area I can sneak home during lunch without issue. I'm currently navigating unemployment, so I have all the time in the world to help take care of your lovely pets. From early mornings to late nights, or house sitting, I'm more of a homebody that can be trusted to make sure you don't have to worry while you are away. I'm well versed in understanding the commands dogs adhere to, can help walk, crate, and make sure your pets get the time they need to expend their energy through walks and play time. I follow instructions to a t, and will keep communication open if I have any questions!
About: Currently have 2 dogs, Henry & Scout (aka Beanie & Weanie), also known as my furry kids. Lucky enough to have lived my whole life around dogs; I grew up with 6 dogs, lived with dogs in college, and now live with my girlfriend & our 2 wonder dogs. I work from home so my dogs get more than enough love; let me help share some with yours while you're away! I work from home and many times away from the computer, so I’m available to help on a very flexible schedule, and can be reached almost any time. I’ve been around dogs my whole life, so I know how to handle different dogs accordingly, and adjust as we get to know each other better.
About: I'm very flexible, and have lots of experience with dog training/behavior and general animal care. I have volunteered at shelters, worked with dogs on farms, fostered, and even worked with service dogs! I also exept small animals, reptiles, exotics, etc. Everything furry, scaly, or feathery is welcome! I won't be able to offer boarding in my own home at this time. Sorry for the inconvenience! I'll be available to house-sit, do drop-ins, walks, and light training and grooming for those that need help with it. I treat all animals according to their needs, emotionally, psychologically, physically, and with unending patience. I'm a researcher by nature, and have acquired a lot of knowledge on all types of pets and wildlife.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Smyrna
Ella was amazing! We were leaving for Europe for two weeks and needed a last minute pet sitter for our golden retriever and cat! She took our dog out three times a day and fed both once a day for two weeks while we are gone. We returned to them both very happy and healthy! She was great to work with and even sent pictures of our sweet pets. Thank you so much!
Kaitlyn was amazing. I have heard of the Rover company but never needed outside help. The pre-meeting with Kaitlyn set my mind at ease. She made me feel so comfortable with the process. I knew my dogs would be in good hands. I came home to two happy girls and a house well cared for! I appreciate everything she did for the dogs and for me.
I highly recommend Sydney! She is incredibly reliable and so very sweet to my babies! They usually are aloof to strangers, but they were super affectionate with Sydney the moment she walked in our door! Dogs absolutely can sense who is a good soul and who is not. We are very lucky to have found Sydney!

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 Smyrna 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!

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
