“Jessica was superb. This was my first time using the Rover app, and of course I was nervous. Jessica eased my nerves after her first visit and I would love to have her help in the future. Thank you so much for taking such good care of my fur babies!”
“Kelsie was an amazing pet sitter for my cat, Squid. She absolutely went above and beyond. She checked in with me every day, took pictures and kept my home neat and tidy. I would definitely recommend her, and hire her again.”
“We called Deborah at the last minute because we had a death in the family. She was concerned because she had not met our Lucy before and I had to calm her nerves and let her know that Lucy is the friendliest of all dogs. I appreciate her for coming over at the last minute and will definitely utilize her services in the future if she is available.”

“Repeat customer here. We love how great Alisa is with our 2 cats. She really seems to care about them and enjoy their personalities just like we do. Communication is always solid, and she even leaves our space cleaner than she found it”
About: I’ve taken care of my Yorkshire Terrier for the past 11 years. I have experience with walking, bathing, feeding, and even assisting to medical needs. In past years I’ve helped pet sat guinea pigs, rabbits, and, of course, dogs of all breeds. I will be in town from now until January 7th. I am free in the mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I do not mind staying late or early. I have no problem giving your pet attention and I love to stay active with them. I have experience crating dogs and cleaning up messes.
About: I have always lived with dogs and cats. I love dogs of all shapes and sizes! I will provide the greatest care that your fur baby deserves, I will treat them like they are my own. I will take them on long walks, take them to the dog park, and make sure they have a great time while they are with me. I know that dogs are like children and I promise to take awesome care of your little one.

I enjoy taking long walks and hikes. And I put the safety and happiness of your pets first!
“Paige was amazing with my fur babies! They typically take a minute to warm up to strangers and they warmed up to her so quickly! She was always on time and made sure to send pictures! I will definitely continue to book Paige!”
About: I’ve had pets since I was 8 years old, from puppies to hamsters and baby ducks. I’ve helped my Yorkie through labor and cared for my senior dog until his last breath. I believe animals are innocent creatures who deserve a fulfilling life full of love and care. In my free time, I like to volunteer at the animal rescue center helping cats and dogs who were left helpless. At the shelter, volunteers care for them, feed and bathe them, and get them accustomed to humans, building trust through walks and playtime. I’d love to get to know your loving pet and treat them as family! I’m currently working a part-time job so I’d love to meet as many pets as possible! I’m open on the weekends for drop-ins and playtime/potty break visits. I’m also open on weekdays, but it depends on the week so please give me a heads up! I’m an early bird, so I prefer visiting early in the morning until 3pm. I have a spacious fenced backyard that my Yorkies love to play in. They are the real bosses of the house, so they’re spoiled to the max. They love long walks, car rides, and treats!
About: I have owned dogs since 1994 and they have been my children. I can only think of them as children. Dogs usually are drawn to me when I see them. Currently I am looking for a full time job and I am wanting to supplement my income until then by helping people care for their dogs. I can come to your house and meet your dog or dogs and you can fill me in on the specifics for your animal to do drop-in's or walks. I like to know the specifics of how to care for your dog.
About: I have been with animals my whole life partly on a farm so this is a fun way to get back to them when I’m not there It fits in because I am a college student that loves to be busy so adding a cuddly animal into the mix just makes it 10x better. I have dogs and have had other animals so as long as I’m given good information on the dog and where I need to be we will be all good
About: I have had animals my whole life and love them tremendously! I have many references for all different types and kinds of pets as well being able to provide special services to animals that need them. I primarily do dog sitting as a full time job so I’m available to give all the attention needed to families and their animals. I have a dog myself so I understand the time and effort that is needed to put in. I can provide care in a clients home by following any routine or instructions as needed while also respecting their home and taking proper care of their fur babies.
“This was our third time hiring Sara to check in on our dog, Asher. She is incredibly reliable and so good with him. I was nervous about hiring someone unknown to him because he can be wary in new situations. Sara was so patient, though, and won him over quickly. I would consider my dog somewhat difficult around strangers, but he loves her so much, AND he remembered her from previous visits. She took him on walks without me even asking her to, and she always leaves a report and takes pictures of him. I always have a hard time leaving my pets when we go on vacation, but Sara’s excellent communication gave me such peace of mind. Will definitely use her services again.”
About: I have had dogs my whole life and one cat. I currently work in a dog daycare and kennel. I took animal science and got a green hand degree in high school. I’m currently working full time, Monday through Thursday. I am available Friday through Sunday most weeks starting around 9:00 am. Weekdays are very unlikely, but if I am not scheduled for work I can try to make myself available. Whatever you need me to do I can do. If you don’t have any specific instructions I will make sure your day has food, water, gets to go potty, take them on walks, and play with them. I offer free baths and nail trims per visit/scheduled day. I will administer medication if it’s not through injection. I do not offer training
About: I’ve had a couple dogs from when they were puppies to seniors, and I’ve had a cat for the past few years. I used to pet sit for my neighbors, so when I found out about rover I had to sign up! I have a flexible work schedule, I can fit in multiple walks and plenty of time with your pets to get them the care that you want! I live in an apartment with my wife and our pets, Duncan and Suki. Our pets get along great and we give them lots of love/attention. Sometimes they have fun together but I know cats and dogs like to play differently so I’ll give them their own specialized playtimes. I treat everyone’s pets like my own because I love animals and I know how I’d want someone to treat my pets when they’re watching them.
“Kayla was definitely a joy to work with. She went over and beyond in making sure my cat was taken care of. She reassured me that everything was taken care of everyday and provided me with pictures at the end of every visit. I’ll definitely book with Kayla again!”
About: Hi! My name is Olivia, and I’m a loving, dependable animal caregiver who treats every pet like family. I have several years of experience caring for dogs! I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m patient, attentive, and big on safety, comfort, and consistency. As a mom, nurturing comes naturally to me, and I bring that same level of care and responsibility to the pets I watch. Whether your pet needs playtime, cuddles, walks, or extra reassurance, I’m happy to provide a calm, loving environment while you’re away. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. I’d love to meet you and your furry family member! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m home most of the day, which allows me to provide regular potty breaks, meals, playtime, and lots of attention. I easily adapt to each pet’s schedule to keep them comfortable and happy! I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment in my home. Pets are supervised, kept on their normal feeding and potty routines, and get plenty of playtime, affection, and rest. I also have a fenced yard, for safe outdoor play and potty breaks, so pets can get fresh air and exercise while staying secure.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Smyrna
Cindy has been absolutely wonderful with my 11-year-old dog, Ellie. She comes by for 30-minute drop-in visits, and I always know Ellie is in caring, capable hands. Cindy is reliable, kind, and takes the time to make sure Ellie gets the attention, care, and companionship she needs while I’m away. It’s such a relief knowing someone who truly loves animals is checking in on her. I highly recommend Cindy to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter. Thank you for taking such great care of my sweet Ellie!
For my first time using rover, the process was very smooth with Corbyn. She was great at lessening my nerves with the pics she sent with every visit. And my dogs loved her! She watched my 7month old puppy and my 9 year old dog. Would recommend her and would hire her again if I ever need a rover in the future!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Smyrna 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 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!
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 Smyrna with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
