“Lauren was amazing!! She made my dog feel so safe with her coming to walk him, and they hadn’t even met! She left detailed Rover cards at the end of every walk as well. She was great and would definitely recommend booking with her.”
“Ryleigh went above and beyond with our little Chihuahua Stella. She was a great communicator and very respectful of our home. She made sure to lock up and take care of any details along the way. If she is available in the future, we will certainly be reaching out.”
“Awesome experience! She responded immediately to my super last minute request. There are a handful of instructions to get into my community and she had no issues and was right on time. She gave my dog a water break and a really good walk”
About: Hey I'm Rylee! I've been pet sitting for a couple years and it truly has brought me so much joy. I have experience with dogs ranging from puppies to seniors and from timid to outgoing. I treat all dogs as my own and can't wait to meet new furry friends! I'm a college student taking only a few classes so time shouldn't be an issue for me. On the weekends and weekday afternoons/evenings I will be fully committed to taking care of your pup! I can very easily adapt to you and your dog's environment to ensure that everyone is safe and comfortable. I want your pets to feel just as if you had never left.
“Sara has been a life-saver for Liam! She was able to accommodate a meet and greet and she and Liam hit it off right away! Liam is epileptic and she was very diligent asking questions about what the plan is if he has a seizure and making sure his emergency medication were avaliable during their walks.She is kind, patient and knowledgeable in her care of animals. Will definitely book again❤️”
About: Hey there! I’m Nikki, and the adorable doodle you see in the photos is, Bear… He is one loved pup and he certainly knows it (spoiled too)! Animals have always been one of my greatest passions! Growing up on a farm, I was fortunate to be surrounded by animals of all kinds, which helped develop my love and understanding of caring for them from an early age. Over the years, family and friends have always trusted me to care for their beloved pets. Rover has been a wonderful way to continue doing what I love while also giving Bear the opportunity to meet and make some furry friends of his own! I have experience caring for all kinds of dogs, from energetic puppies who love to play and explore to senior dogs who may need a little extra patience, attention, and care. I'm also comfortable assisting with additional needs, including administering medications and vitamins as instructed. No matter their age, size, or personality, I truly enjoy getting to know each pup and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and right at home while in my care! I recently relocated to the Atlanta area and am excited to connect with new customers. I’m now welcoming new clients and look forward to providing reliable, professional in-home pet care services. I enjoy living an active lifestyle and love spending time outdoors. Your fur-babies can look forward to plenty of long walks, fresh air, exercise, and outdoor fun! I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets, and I look forward to providing them with the love, attention, and care they deserve. I’m excited to become part of the Atlanta community and look forward to meeting you and your furry family members!
“Amazing person with a BIG heart for loving animals. I really do trust and appreciate all the time and love she spends with my baby girl Pippi! Thank you Jasmine for the care you give for my fur baby!”
About: I have had a dog since I was 7 years old. I grew up in a household that always had two cats and two dogs. I have experience with difficult dogs as one of my dogs was a previously abused rescue. I also spent time volunteering at the Marietta Humane Society, working with both cats and dogs. I recently adopted my own kitten, and she loves playing with my Mom's dogs and cats! I work a 9-5 so I am available on weekends and 6am-8am or after 5pm. I don't travel for work and am available on most weekends and evenings. I always give my dogs a morning bathroom break, breakfast, play time, an afternoon walk/bathroom break, and dinner, with water supplied constantly throughout the day. I am calm and gentle especially with older/anxious dogs and am able to bond with them quickly.
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: I have been caring for dogs since childhood. I ran a neighborhood dog-sitting business that cared for over 4 dogs a week. I currently love my family dogs: the feisty corgi and the loving german shepherd. I have been relied on to feed, groom, walk, and care for pets for years. I am a recent medical school graduate who has been taking care of healthcare patients and dogs for several years. I have been trusted with pets, children, and adults for years, but animals have a special place in my heart. My first dog lived for over 12 years, so I do have experience with older dogs as well. I am currently working as a dog-sitter full-time. I am free to take your doggies anywhere you would like in the area. I currently live next to a dog-friendly park and am also free to take your dog even for just a few hours. Whenever you need me, I am there! Caring for your pets at your home is fully up to your discretion. I have offered this at my previous dog-sitting business and it worked amazingly. I can come in to check on your doggie at any time or stay in house. I am very flexible and a great listener to instructions.
“Alana has been amazing with my dog Birdie every day over the past few weeks as I’ve been injured and couldn’t walk. She’s also walked my foster dog previously as well! Alana is punctual, she sends great updates, she’s so kind, and you can tell she has a love for animals — and you can tell my dog loves her too! Looking forward to future dog walking services with Alana and would highly recommend her to care for your pets!”
About: Hello! My name is Jessica. I am a true animal lover, but as a pet parent I know there is more to caring for an animal than love alone. As a military veteran, I bring discipline, reliability, and 14 years of hands-on experience caring for animals in all of the ways they deserve. From training puppy’s to seniors, house sitting and daycares, to veterinary care I have a strong comprehensive knowledge of pet care. Having to fur babies of my own give me a strong understanding of how difficult it is to be separated from a member of the family, to make it a little easier I send videos alongside photos to make you feel a little closer your pups/cats while you’re away. I am currently employed in Kennesaw, where I assist and work alongside a reputable and respected professional dog trainer. My journey began working with farm animals in 2012, then quickly transitioned to specialized dog and cat care. Where I began training dogs; guiding them through basic obedience courses, hunting, as well as behavioral modification. All the while house-sitting for my clients when they have gone out of town and walking their dogs while they were away at work. My most recent work with animals is veterinary care, giving me profound knowledge on the health and wellbeing of our furry friends. I have a strong expertise in working with anxious/timid dogs by building trust and security, as well as reading animal behavior to respect boundaries and build confidence. Throughout the years I have medicated dogs of all temperaments, breeds, and stages of life allowing the dog to feel most comfortable. The variety of my experience has given me well round knowledge of what it takes to care for these important members of our families. The comfort that can come with knowledgeable care is incomparable. Pet care is part of my daily routine. I currently care for animals full time, therefore I’m able to maintain a consistent routine for feeding, bathroom breaks, and activity. I currently service pets in their own homes, I offer customized care plans to perfectly fit your pets needs where your dog feels the safest.
“Crystal is awesome! She has great energy, which is important for me. She made me feel at ease, as seeking a sitter can be tedious. She took care of Bentley perfectly. Bentley was in his own world when she came and returned not wanting to come home. She's great with keeping the communication open with updates and pictures. I'm booking her again without a doubt. I highly recommend her.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Smyrna
Lauren did a fantastic job walking Petra and Jack last night! She was prompt, warm, and friendly right from the moment she arrived. What impressed me most was how quickly she won over Jack—he’s a very picky Jack Russell mix, but he trusted her and took to her immediately! Knowing both dogs were in such capable, caring hands gave me complete peace of mind. I recommend Lauren to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive dog walker!
Erika was great! She called and made sure she knew how to get into the apt complex and had all the details needed for walking Bond. I also really appreciate that she went above and beyond by helping me bring in my mail without being asked. That attention to detail is very reassuring when she takes care of Bond!
Maddy is so amazing and Lucy loves her 💜 Lucy can be intimidating to new people coming into the home and Maddy handled her great - reading body language and approaching with confidence to gain her trust. She leaves detailed recaps of their walks for me (I’m a helicopter mom so I love this), and she is so flexible to my sometimes unpredictable schedule.
Carlos and Paula G were wonderful. I will definitely use them again and recommend them to friends. My dog loved them both. They kept me informed during their walks and they spent time with him after each walk. Thanks again for accepting my service request last minute and helping us out.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Smyrna is $24 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $33 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Smyrna. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Smyrna after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker 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.
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Smyrna. On Rover:
- 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. 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 walker interacts with your pet 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
