“Just got back to a lovely clean home and happy dog! First time we have used Rover and Lauren was very good with communication and photos everything went very smoothly and I would definitely book Laren to sit my dog again”
“Chelsey was wonderful! She was communicative and took great care of our cats. One of our cats often gets stressed out when we are out of town, but when we returned home he showed no signs of distress! Both cats were very happy when we returned home. Also, our home was immaculate. Thank you Chelsey!!!!”
“Lauren is a wonderful communicator and even helped my friends coordinate daytrips with Scruffy during my two-week trip. When Scruffy ran into some anxiety issues from the prolonged time away from me, she proactively sourced some meds to alleviate his stress. The house and my plants were well cared for, I heartily recommend Lauren!”
“Hongyang is very kind, responsible, and genuinely loves animals. She is someone you can trust with your home and pet. She was able to handle my 'senior citizen' cat with no issues. I am happy to be another one of her clients happily leaving a 5-star review!”
“Maura did a great job watching my girls! She responded quickly and she cared for my girls like they were hers. I felt very comfortable being away for my girls. I am definitely booking with her again soon!”
“As Alia was a perfect overnight dog sitter. Our pups loved her and felt safe with her care. She went above and beyond with feeding, playtime, and keeping them happy while we were away for a two week trip. Even when a medical emergency arose, she acted quickly and was able to get our dog care without hesitation. I would recommend her to anyone. She’s one of the best sitters we’ve had!”
“Susan was absolutely wonderful! She stayed in our home for a week and took care of our two pups and watched the house while we were away. One of our dogs is very high maintenance and the other has anxiety and she made them both feel so loved and safe. I was a bit hesitant about having a stranger in my home for that long but Susan was extremely professional and any concerns I had quickly went away after meeting her. I would absolutely recommend Susan and will be asking her to dog sit for all upcoming vacations we plan. Thank you Susan, I (and the pups) are extremely grateful for your extraordinary care.”
“Ethel was amazing! My husband and I traveled out of the country for 9 nights (which turned into 10 thanks to a missed flight) and any nerves I had about leaving our three dogs were quickly dashed by Ethel's photos and updates. We left our three large female dogs in her care and joked they were on a better vacation than we were. Ethel stayed in our house and gave our girls tons of attention and love. She sent us photos and videos multiple times a day, every day. We never wondered what they were up to. It was so reassuring. Ethel truly loves dogs. Her little nicknames for ours, the photos of them passed out next to her with their tongues out totally comfortable... it was clear they were in great hands. We are so glad to have met Ethel. We cannot recommend her enough and will definitely be using her again.”
“I can’t recommend Anna enough! I had horrible anxiety about one of my seniors with worries he might pass away while gone on our trip. Anna kept us updated everyday with pictures and statuses. I could tell all my babies were loved and well cared for while we were away. They were even a little depressed after we got back. I think they miss her! ?❤️”
“Camila did such a great job, I will definitely be a repeat client. She was my my puppy all day at my home, and she kept me well informed with plenty off updates, pictures, and videos.”
About: TL;DR: Great with meds, puppies & seniors | Smyrna & Metro Atlanta Hi! 👋 I’m Astrid, a reliable, medication-friendly dog sitter in Smyrna and Metro Atlanta specializing in drop-in visits for senior dogs. I cared for my own Pomeranian/Spitz mix from puppyhood through her senior years, so I understand how essential routine, patience, and gentle care are as dogs age. I also regularly dog-sit for a household with up to three dogs at a time (a large Boxer, a small mixed breed, and a Coton de Tulear), which means I’m comfortable managing dogs of different sizes, energy levels, and personalities while making sure each one gets individual attention. WHAT I OFFER DURING DROP-IN VISITS: • Feeding & refreshing water • Potty breaks • Playtime & enrichment (adjusted to energy and mobility levels) • Reinforcing familiar dog commands & routines • Calm, attentive visits for dogs home alone • Care for multi-dog households MEDICATION & SPECIAL CARE EXPERIENCE: • Oral medication administration (pills & liquid) • Multiple daily medications & strict schedules • Pill pockets & pill-hiding techniques • Close attention to routines, behavior changes, and overall comfort I understand that dogs with chronic conditions need more than basic check-ins. They need consistency, patience, and someone who notices small changes. During every drop-in, I focus on keeping your dog comfortable, calm, and on their normal routine while carefully following your instructions & providing clear, dependable updates. I’m generally available most days (including weekends) for drop-in visits & keep my calendar up to date. If you’re searching for a dog sitter in Smyrna or Metro Atlanta (especially for a senior dog or a dog who needs medication), I’d love to meet you & your dog to see if we’re a great fit! Pet care fits naturally into my daily & weekly routine. I generally have availability most days, including weekends, and I plan my schedule around providing dependable, timely care for the pets I’m responsible for. I keep my Rover calendar up to date & only accept bookings I can fully commit to. I build in flexibility for drop-in visits, medication schedules, and check-ins that need to happen at specific times, especially for senior or medical pets. Because I limit the number of bookings I take at once, I’m able to give each pet my full attention, follow care routines carefully, and communicate consistently with pet parents throughout the visit period. In a client’s home, I follow all pet parent instructions carefully as long as they’re safe for the pet, and I communicate promptly if I have any questions or concerns. I use safe entry & exit procedures to prevent escapes; confirm doors and windows are secure; and keep food, litter, and medications organized & clearly labeled. I monitor cats closely for changes in appetite, litter box habits, energy, or behavior & provide timely updates if anything seems off. For senior pets or pets with medical needs, I use gentle handling & take the time needed to complete medications & daily care routines safely & comfortably. I maintain a clean environment for cats by refreshing water, scooping litter boxes, and keeping feeding areas tidy. My care is always pet-led, and I provide dependable updates and photos so pet parents feel informed and confident while they’re away.
“Kylie was super helpful in our last minute request to take care of our pets while we were out of town. She was kind to them and took great care of the house. We look forward to having her back!”
“Beau was awesome with my dogs and took great care of them! He gave updates and was a great help. My dog Mike was very happy to have someone to cuddle with him on the couch lol. Would definitely recommend and book again.”
About: About me: I’ve always had lots of pets throughout my life and came from a very animal focused family, including dogs cats fish and turtles. I am an active person and walking my dog was always a big part of my routine. Now during my post grad life I missed connecting with as many dogs so I signed up for Rover! I have experience with cats with medical issues. I’m doing freelance artist work so I have time during the week to petsit! My schedule is flexible due unusual hours so I can work with your plans. (I am not currently caring for pets in my own home due to the size of my apartment, which is already filled up by two cats who have very big personalities)
“She did such a great job staying with our two old lady dachshunds! Gave us the peace of mind we needed while we are away, with lots of photo updates, responsive, on time, and took great care of them and our home. Will definitely be having her come stay with the girls again!”
“It was an easy adjustment to leave my dogs at home with Katelyn while she stayed at our house. She cleaned up after herself and I was happy to receive all the updates while we were away. I’ve already rebooked her!”
“5 stars! Hannah is our go-to sitter and always takes great care of our pets and home. Excellent communication, regular updates, and everything was in great shape when we got back. We never worry when Hannah is staying with Dakota and Watson. Highly recommend!”

Lauren was absolutely amazing!! I had to find a sitter last minute, and I loved her bio the moment I read it. She responded quickly to my request and made sure to nail out the details for my dog’s stay. I could tell she’s experienced and loves animals, and so could my dog! She sent regular updates and pictures, and when I saw my dog frolicking in her backyard and snuggled up later on in the evening like he forgot I had dropped him off was all I needed to set my mind at ease haha! Lauren is a fantastic sitter and I will absolutely be booking her again. Thank you so much!!
Stephanie was a life saver. I had a short notice booking. She was able to fit in a meet and greet, which was very important because we have a high anxiety dog. She was sweet and calm with my dogs, and also playful for my high energy dog. And our high anxiety dog started to warm up to her after a day or so: She left our home clean and orderly. Would definitely recommend!
Sha’Pri was an amazing pet sitter and I would 100% have her watch my Yorkie again. She had great communication and sent updates every morning and evening. She did a great job handling my 15 yo dog’s slightly complicated medication and food routine. When we got them, the house was spotless, the sheets were washed, and dog TV was on!
Liza did an amazing job with our boys Kobe and Buster. She house sat for us for 10 days while we were out of the country and we couldn't have been happier. Our boys are very needy and have quite a few quirks about them and she managed everything with ease. She was a great communicator, left the home in immaculate condition and was great to the boys. On the last night Kobe had what seemed to be an allergic reaction so she took immediate action, Facetimed us and ended up taking him to the vet. It ended up being a non-issue, but her diligence and decision-making skills were impressive. We would absolutely use Liza again!
Megan was excellent in house sitting our two 9 month old kittens. She was very attentive to their needs and went out of her way to take care of them like her own. She was also super communicative and made sure to clarify things with us. She even sent their pics to us on a daily basis. The kittens seem healthy, happy and well taken care. Will definitely be rebooking Megan for future house sitting.
Caroline was exceptional. She communicated to ensure she understood all details of our trip and our dog’s needs. They were well cared for. We never had a concern. It was so nice not having to worry while we were away. If we ever need dog care again, she would be our choice.
Tapanga was great! Our dogs loved her and she showered them with affection the whole weekend. Three dogs is a lot but she didn’t complain at all. She sent great pictures and updates. Just enough to keep us informed a not too many as to disrupt our vacay. The house was exactly as we left it. We definitely plan on using her again. Our dogs loved her!
Alexi did an amazing job with our sweet boy Rodney. He did amazing with his meet and greet. He loved Alexi so very much, she was incredible with updates and sending pictures along with taking him on walks and giving him his daily-all-day snuggles!!! We cannot wait to have Alexi stay with him again, he can’t wait to see his new buddies.
Baxter seemed well taken care of while we were gone! Ruth Ann was very responsive to our requests for status updates on the little guy. She even brought in the groceries when they got delivered & checked the mail for us (going above and beyond!) We’re hopeful Ruth Ann will come back and stay with Baxter in the future(:
From the initial meet and greet my babies loved Brady. I have four and sometimes they can be a little hectic but she handled it like a champ. Brady had awesome communication, lots of updates, tons of picture and all of my care instructions were followed. I came home to happy and healthy babies. She also went above and beyond and made them printed report cards that I will definitely keep forever. 10/10 would recommend Brady and my babies are looking forward to the next time I have to leave so they can see her again
