“Barrie kept my little pup while I left the country, and she was so accommodating and sent updates. It is obvious that she loves dogs, and it looked like Millie had a great time!”
“Tatiana was WONDERFUL! She walked Harley a ton which I know Harley enjoyed, especially after a long car ride the day before. I could tell immediately that Harley was comfortable with Tatiana and her family and that’s saying a lot because Harley can be very timid and shy around new people. Thank you for sending plenty of picture updates too, I’ll definitely be booking again when I’m in the area!!!”
“Brittney was great! Kept our dog for a few days while we were out of town and sent pictures and updates everyday. Was also very flexible with pickup since our flight got in late. Definitely recommend!”
“My dog Kona had another great stay with Kelsey! I would absolutely recommend her. She is super accommodating, quick to get back to you and sends the best photos. Kona always has such a great time playing with her dogs and going for walks on the beach.”
“Very nice couple. Our Shih-tzu was wore out from playing with other pups her size. Kristen kept us updated throughout the stay with pictures and videos. Will use again.”
“I gave a 5 star review, solely, based on how our baby hollered with his mouth wide open when it was time to go. We have never heard him wail like this ever before. He truly enjoyed himself. Thank you for taking such good care of our baby. He is still catching up on rest the following day. He was worn slap out! ❤️✅🎉”
“Wade & Morgan were fantastic hosts for our dog Boone over Memorial Day Weekend. Boone had a ball playing with their dog Atlas for 3 days. Wade and Morgan sent pictures and provided updates everyday. Would highly recommend!”
“Lawden and her husband are fabulous! Noira is so excited when she sees them and will go blasting out the door since she knows it means she’s getting playtime with them and their dogs! Lawden was also very flexible and worked with me when I had a last minute schedule change. I know Noira is in great hands when she’s with them.”
“Harold was fantastic with my two girls! He helped me out when I needed daycare last minute and I loved the pictures I got throughout the day. Would absolutely book again!”
“Marilyn is a fantastic pet sitter—friendly, very accommodating with last-minute changes, and clearly cares a lot for the animals in her care. She took great care of our pup and we definitely recommend her services!”
“This was my first time using Rover and I cannot say enough good things about our pet sitter Carson. She was perfect for us and our pet babies and from the very beginning of the process she was great. She was quick to respond to my initial message and she was informative and accommodating. She welcomed our babies into her home and sent us pictures and texts to let us know they were doing well which was so nice. She even went above and beyond when my flight home was going to make me late for our pickup time and was so helpful and accommodating! Overall, it was one of the best experiences with pet sitting/ boarding that we’ve ever had. Carson, thank you much for taking care of our babies! You don’t know how nice it was to know that they were being loved while we were away. And thank you so much for the pictures and for always reaching out to ask me questions about them. I hope they were good for you and that are invited back again because you guys were so wonderful and a godsend. Thank you again!!!! 💕”
“Jamiya kept our baby for a week and she was absolutely wonderful. We received consistent updates and pictures throughout the entire week. We definitely recommend her to anyone else who is looking. Thanks again!”
“Libby had a clean home, spacious space for Grey to stay & updated us with text & pics. She has a fenced in yard on the side & fenced in deck for the pups to play/relax safely. Grey was well taken care of & if we are in the area again we would rebook.”
“I left my fur baby with Christopher and Sore for the weekend and after making my reservation, I realized that I had forgotten about my flight being at the Atlanta airport and the hour difference, so needless to say I had move my drop off time up.They were completely accommodating. Once meeting Sore I felt completely at ease, leaving cowboy with them.. I received updates, with pictures every day to see my boy was doing fine. I definitely would rely on their service again in the future..”
“Westyn went above and beyond to take care of our puppy! He sent us pictures and videos everyday and made sure to communicate with us. We had to do a later pick up than expected and he was super flexible with us. We will definitely be using Westyn next time we need a sitter for our Winnie!”
“I have left my dogs with Lauren twice and have been more than happy. Nothing is better than knowing my babies are getting love and care while I am away. One of my dogs is very selective with people and I can tell she really likes being with Lauren. Definitely the first sitter I contact when Im going out of town!”

I have grown up with animals all my life starting from cats, dogs, turtles, lizards, hedgehogs, hamsters, guinea pigs, farm animals, etc..

About: Hi! I’m Raegan - professional belly-rubber, treat dispenser, and adventure buddy for your fur baby. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your BFF. Whether they love long walks, tug-of-war, or cozy nap sessions, I’ve got it covered. I’ve got experience with all kinds of pups - high energy, shy, sassy, or seniors - and I tailor each visit to make your dog feel safe, loved, and totally spoiled (in the best way). I also know how important consistency is when it comes to training, and I know how quickly they can get off track. I’m happy to discuss and follow any and all expectations while I’m with your pup so they don’t lose any progress while you’re away. I can promise your baby will have plenty of potty breaks and long walks, and I also have a large gated porch that they’ll be able to play their hearts out off-leash. I’ll always make sure to send updates, photos, and a little note about our time together so your time away from them can be as stress free as possible. I can’t wait to meet your pup! ❤︎ I recently lost my soul dog, Mello, so I have a lot of room in my house and heart to love on your pup(s)! I do work full-time, but my office is less than 10 minutes from home so I can provide multiple potty breaks even on work days. If we're hanging at my house, I have a large covered porch for the pup(s) to play on as much as they want. I also have the space to let them relax in their crate if you want to leave their crate with me. I also live in Southside which is the perfect area for long, enriching walks so we will get plenty of exercise!

We have a Pomeranian name Chaise Alonzo March. That we love dearly. He is 7 years old. I'm more than willing to meet with you about your pet and their needs. I would welcome your babies with arms wide open.

“I absolutely cannot compromise on is knowing my sweet puppy Mango is not just safe, but truly loved, happy, and well-cared for while I’m away. That’s where Adelle comes in, and she has been nothing short of a miracle. Adelle has given me something priceless: true peace of mind. Knowing Mango is in her loving hands allows me to focus completely on my craft without that worry in the back of my mind. For a chef who lives and breathes their passion, that trust is everything. Adelle, I honestly couldn’t repay you in this lifetime for the comfort and joy you bring to both Mango and me. You’re not just a dog sitter you’re a friend, again thank you so much ❤️🤍💙⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🥭 - Chef Jay & Mango ✨✨”
“I reached out to Mrs. Kim on very short notice after my dog sitter bailed on me days prior to a week long vacation I had scheduled. Mrs.Kim was very accommodating with my request. She does frequent updates and made my baby a part of her pact, and now my dog loves it there! 100% recommend Mrs. Kim and her family and will be using her again and again !”
“I can’t say enough great things about Rachel! They took amazing care of our Miniature Dachshund, Ollie, while we were in town for the Supercross race. It was clear from the start that she truly loves and understands dogs. Ollie was happy, well-cared for, and I received regular updates, which gave me complete peace of mind. Finding someone you can trust with your pet is priceless, and I’m so grateful to have found Rachel. Wished we lived closer so I could continue to use her services. She has the sweetest little family too. We Highly recommend!!!”

About: I have had multiple dogs growing up I do have a dog right now and I have dog sat my aunts dog while leaves. Dogs and children are the two things I really love in this world and I feel that I know how to care for them as they are my own. I a pretty free after 12 during the weekdays and on the weekend I am very free to do what ever needs to be done. I have a lot of time to spare and spend with dogs rather that be a nice long walk like I do with my dog everyday or just playing with for a while. I live in an apartment with my own dog but I have plenty of space for them to play and keep each other company. If you dog does require a crate I have enough space for that and have a nice trail and a park next to my apartment for me to walk them around.
About: I have taken care of many dogs even my own that passed away from old age at 15 years old. I have experience in trimming nails, bathing, boarding over 1 month, day care sitting, and much more..

About: I have grown up with animals my entire life. Caring for animals has been my life long ambition. I understand the importance of trusting someone to care for your fur babies. My fiancé And I love training and exercising with them every day and they push us to be the best we can be. They bring so much joy and happiness to our life. I have 5 years experience pet sitting for friends and family as well. They are the support system that told me about this app. Work from home but it’s not very demanding. Extremely flexible schedule. Pets need routines just as much as humans do for a sense of calm and safety. To continue to keep your (our) fur baby safe I will keep trash cans covered or inside a latched cabinet. Move all chemicals to high shelves or behind secure doors. Keep cords, chargers, and other potentially harmful items out of reach.
About: I've always been a dog lover ever since I got my first dog when I was younger. I like to nurture and run with dogs. I also like to play with dogs as well as (sometimes) wash them. A typical day for me with a dog would be for both of us to get familiar with each other first. Then once we get familiar, I would take the dog for a walk (if it's okay with owner) just to get some exercise in. Then come back and feed the dog. Then nurture him and relax for the rest of the day. Taking care of let's is something I love to do! I currently do this part time, but ensure I care and take care of the animals! By petting, greetings, going to their eye level, taking your time, ensuring dog and owner is comfortable. Also keep a smile on your face and be happy to see them!

“Barrie kept my little pup while I left the country, and she was so accommodating and sent updates. It is obvious that she loves dogs, and it looked like Millie had a great time!”
“Tatiana was WONDERFUL! She walked Harley a ton which I know Harley enjoyed, especially after a long car ride the day before. I could tell immediately that Harley was comfortable with Tatiana and her family and that’s saying a lot because Harley can be very timid and shy around new people. Thank you for sending plenty of picture updates too, I’ll definitely be booking again when I’m in the area!!!”
“Brittney was great! Kept our dog for a few days while we were out of town and sent pictures and updates everyday. Was also very flexible with pickup since our flight got in late. Definitely recommend!”
“My dog Kona had another great stay with Kelsey! I would absolutely recommend her. She is super accommodating, quick to get back to you and sends the best photos. Kona always has such a great time playing with her dogs and going for walks on the beach.”
“I gave a 5 star review, solely, based on how our baby hollered with his mouth wide open when it was time to go. We have never heard him wail like this ever before. He truly enjoyed himself. Thank you for taking such good care of our baby. He is still catching up on rest the following day. He was worn slap out! ❤️✅🎉”
“Wade & Morgan were fantastic hosts for our dog Boone over Memorial Day Weekend. Boone had a ball playing with their dog Atlas for 3 days. Wade and Morgan sent pictures and provided updates everyday. Would highly recommend!”
“Lawden and her husband are fabulous! Noira is so excited when she sees them and will go blasting out the door since she knows it means she’s getting playtime with them and their dogs! Lawden was also very flexible and worked with me when I had a last minute schedule change. I know Noira is in great hands when she’s with them.”
“Harold was fantastic with my two girls! He helped me out when I needed daycare last minute and I loved the pictures I got throughout the day. Would absolutely book again!”
“Marilyn is a fantastic pet sitter—friendly, very accommodating with last-minute changes, and clearly cares a lot for the animals in her care. She took great care of our pup and we definitely recommend her services!”
“This was my first time using Rover and I cannot say enough good things about our pet sitter Carson. She was perfect for us and our pet babies and from the very beginning of the process she was great. She was quick to respond to my initial message and she was informative and accommodating. She welcomed our babies into her home and sent us pictures and texts to let us know they were doing well which was so nice. She even went above and beyond when my flight home was going to make me late for our pickup time and was so helpful and accommodating! Overall, it was one of the best experiences with pet sitting/ boarding that we’ve ever had. Carson, thank you much for taking care of our babies! You don’t know how nice it was to know that they were being loved while we were away. And thank you so much for the pictures and for always reaching out to ask me questions about them. I hope they were good for you and that are invited back again because you guys were so wonderful and a godsend. Thank you again!!!! 💕”
“Jamiya kept our baby for a week and she was absolutely wonderful. We received consistent updates and pictures throughout the entire week. We definitely recommend her to anyone else who is looking. Thanks again!”
“Libby had a clean home, spacious space for Grey to stay & updated us with text & pics. She has a fenced in yard on the side & fenced in deck for the pups to play/relax safely. Grey was well taken care of & if we are in the area again we would rebook.”
“I left my fur baby with Christopher and Sore for the weekend and after making my reservation, I realized that I had forgotten about my flight being at the Atlanta airport and the hour difference, so needless to say I had move my drop off time up.They were completely accommodating. Once meeting Sore I felt completely at ease, leaving cowboy with them.. I received updates, with pictures every day to see my boy was doing fine. I definitely would rely on their service again in the future..”
“Westyn went above and beyond to take care of our puppy! He sent us pictures and videos everyday and made sure to communicate with us. We had to do a later pick up than expected and he was super flexible with us. We will definitely be using Westyn next time we need a sitter for our Winnie!”
“Obi THRIVED at Kyler’s house! He absolutely loved her and her little dog, Matcha. Kyler was so sweet and amazing. She kept me updated everyday with pictures and videos of my pup. I honestly can’t recommend her enough and will absolutely be using her again!”
