“Marilou is great! She took great care of my girl! She sent pics and daily updates as well. She has two cats of her own so I knew she would treat mine like an angel 🩷. Thank you Marilou and your sweet daughters too. Book with her! You will not be disappointed”
“This was my girls’ second weekend with Jessica and her boyfriend, and they were so excited the moment they realized where we were—that’s always such a comforting feeling. Jessica kept me updated with pictures and videos all weekend, and the dogs clearly had the time of their lives! I’ll definitely be booking with them every time I go out of town from now on!”
“Glenn was great, our two dogs were a little nervous when I dropped them off but after their two day stay they didn’t want to leave. They ran back into his house. They were happy and smell great. If I need a sitter again no doubt I will use Glenn again.”
“Tavia was awesome!!!! She took great care of Bentley while we were away and sent us daily updates. Bentley was smiling in every picture! I will definitely use her again! Thanks for everything Tavia!”
“Justice & Kristian took such great care of Dior and put our minds at ease by sending photos and updates several times during the day. They were caring and made sure she was well taken care of in our absence. We would definitely recommend and will be using them again!”
“Anais is great — she immediately embraced my rather nervous dogs and her calming / caring presence immediately put them at ease. Can tell my pups were cared for while I was out of town and was pleasantly surprised as Anais went above and beyond. Will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Isabel was very accommodating for our last minute sitter needs. She's friendly, polite, and loves Beau Kai! We felt at ease leaving him in her care and will definitely use her services again!”

“A Real Dog Whisperer -- I feel so fortunate to have been able to leave my dogs with Mary Claire over the weekend. I didn't think my dogs would be willing to go to a sitter, but they went right to Mary Claire and jumped right into her car. She has a calming energy that makes the dogs (and people!) feel comfortable. I have three small dogs (all with Jack Russell and two with Chihuahua breeds in them). They are quite a bunch and can be a handful. Mary Claire handled them superbly. They came home looking better behaved than when I left them. Honestly! I could go on and on. But you'll see for yourself. Mary Claire has the magic touch.”
“This was my dog’s first boarding experience and it was amazing. Emily sent pictures and videos and kept me informed about Chloe all the time. My dog Chloe was in love with her. My dog was happy and comfortable. Highly recommended.”
“I have used Ruth quite a few times. Not only is she amazing with Bailey she is also attentive. She lets you know throught out the time she is sitting Bailey by sending pictures and staying in communication with us. She deserve 5 stars and more. Thank you Ruth for a job well done.”

“Darayell has been so wonderful! She’s punctual, a great communicator, animal lover and goes the extra mile. She picked up our mail, cleaned any messes or vomit, follows instructions, has a calming presence, friendly and is overall a great person to work with. Our cats Evie and Leo look healthy, happy and at peace when we got home - so much better than boarding them. We’re grateful for her service and the extra support. We will definitely book her again for our next trip. 10/10 Recommend!”
About: I've taken care of many animals since I was young, I've been a sitter for 2 fur babies for 2years before I moved and I do have my own sweet girl, she just turned 5 this year. I currently work part-time 4-10pm and I am a college students, so I do make time to be around fur babies, being around pets just bring me peace and happiness especially if I'm keeping company, walking or just playing.

We will definitely be booking again!”

About: Hey fellow cat lovers! I’m Aniya, and I’ve had the purr-fect pleasure of caring for cats of all ages—from bottle-feeding newborn kittens to giving snuggles and medication to senior sweethearts. I’ve personally raised litters of kittens, and I’ve also worked hands-on in a veterinary and pet boarding facility, where I cared for cats with a variety of temperaments, health needs, and personalities.

About: I have been caring for dogs and cats for the majority of my life, starting with my family's pets and continuing with my own senior dog, Minnie, whom I've cared for for 13 years. This lifelong experience has given me a deep understanding of a pet's needs throughout all life stages. What truly sets me apart is my specific experience with senior care, including the comfort and skill to administer medication like eye drops and pills. I am also confident and capable of handling large, energetic breeds, as I regularly care for my sister's two 70-pound Huskies. I believe in a calm and patient approach to every pet I meet, earning their trust and making them feel comfortable and safe with me. Since I work part-time, my schedule is very flexible and allows me to easily fit pet care into my daily and weekly routine. I can accommodate a range of times for dog walks and drop-in visits, and my flexibility also makes me available for last-minute requests. Pet care is a priority for me, and my schedule is built to ensure I can provide consistent and timely care for every client. When caring for pets, whether it's for a drop-in visit or a dog walk, my first priority is to follow the owner's specific instructions and routine exactly as they are laid out. Before starting, I will ask about your pet's routine, personality, and how they respond to different environments to ensure a stress-free and positive experience. For drop-in visits, I will ensure your pet has fresh food and water, gets a potty break, and has some quality one-on-one time, whether it's through play, cuddles, or just companionship. For dog walks, I focus on providing a safe and enjoyable experience, matching the pace to your dog's needs and energy level while being attentive to our surroundings. I believe clear communication with the owner is key, and I will be sure to provide updates and photos to let you know how your pet is doing.
“I had a relatively short stay but Serinette was great! My cat Coconut is a very shy boy and she didn’t mind it. She kept him secluded until he was ready to come out and gave him the space he needed. She provided updates often which really eased my mind, I rarely ever keep him away from me so I was nervous. He enjoyed his stay and made some friends too! If I need another stay, I would definitely have him come back here. 😊”
“Ruth was a responsive, professional, and straightforward sitter. She provided pictures and asked about my pet’s dietary needs and habits. She was caring and helped him get accustomed to a new environment.”

“I love her!!! She’s a better dog mom to MY dog than me. She feeds him well and plays with him the entire time. My dog is so happy to have playmates. When he leaves he sleeps like a baby. The best part is she noticed a problem that I didn’t. So glad to have her”
About: At my family-run boarding home, every dog gets the comfort and care they deserve. I offer climate-controlled kennels, a full acre of fenced yard, and a loving home environment — not a crowded facility. With my friendly resident dogs and hands-on attention, your pup will feel safe, happy, and loved from the moment they arrive. Caring for dogs is part of my everyday life, not just something I do on the side. With my own three pups, daily feeding, playtime, and cleaning are already part of my routine. Mornings and evenings include feeding, cleaning kennels, exercise time in the fenced yard, and quick health checks. During the day, I rotate playtime and rest inside the AC- and heat-controlled kennels to keep every dog comfortable. Because I live right on the property, I’m always nearby to give attention and supervision. When your dog stays with me, they become part of my family. I keep every pup safe, comfortable, and loved from the moment they arrive. Each dog has their own clean, climate-controlled kennel with heating and air conditioning for year-round comfort. I follow your pet's normal feeding and routine schedule, give them daily playtime in my secure, fenced acre yard, and make sure they get plenty of attention and affection. My friendly resident dogs help visiting pups feel welcome and socialized. I also keep a close eye on every dog's health, behavior, and comfort, sending updates so you always know how your furry friend is doing. With me, your pet isn't just boarded — they're cared for like my own.
About: I have taken care of pets since I was a child. I grew in a mini zoo. We had cats, dogs, rabbits, pigeons, roosters, monkeys, turtles and civets just to name a few. I love animals in general and think take care of them makes the world a better place. I have a Job that allows me to work from home so I am always available to check on your fur baby several times during the day! I also live about 20 min from the airport so even if I'm far from you and you need to travel and need boarding, my place is very convenient for drop off and pick up from the airport. I have a fenced yard if your fur baby needs to run or walk around and play! I can crate them as well if there is a need for it.
“I highly recommend Ms. Marisa for her personality, she's warm, sincere and passionate about her service, you can see that it's more than a job to her. My little girl, Coco took to her immediately and to me that spoke volume. I wanted Coco to attend doggie daycare to expel some of that engery she has, that I can't seem to get rid of. When I got her home, she was so calm and relaxed. I assumed she played so much with the other dogs, I didn't have to play with her. This is what I was looking for. Thank you Ms. Marisa.”
“I truly appreciate the care Trinise shows to Chase! She has a nice welcoming dog friendly home environment. She’s very responsive at a moments notice and Chase shows a happy and cheerful demeanor when I pick him up. I highly recommend Trinise if you are looking for a great sitter!”
About: Since i was younger I’ve always loved dogs. Whether my own or volunteering at a shelter my passion has always been animals <3 When i heard about Rover i was ecstatic. Having the chance to meet more fur babies , getting to know each personality, and learning more everyday is something i am looking forward to. I do work full time but an early morning shift (4am-12pm) I have the rest of my day, why not fill it doing something i love? Which is pet care! I take pride in animals and often feel as though i can connect with them better than humans! Other than working in the morning my day is free! I live in an apartment which does not have a yard, but there is a park less than a 2 minute walk from where i stay! My neighborhood is dog friendly and does require leashes on every dog! I can crate your dog if needed, and make adjustments as requested.
“✨️Ruth is awesome!✨️ A friend recommended her to me and assured me she was the best. She was right! 💯 Ruth sends me pictures of how my dog is doing and keeps me informed of his well-being. Her communication is quick and excellent. ❤️ My yorkie, Guapo, is happy and comfortable around Ruth and her family. I have recommended her to my friends and family. ✅️ Thank you Ruth! 🫶🏼 My family and I appreciate your love for our fur babies. 💖🐶🐾🐾”

My passion for animals has lead me to be a regular volunteer at the Michigan Humane Society before moving to GA, I’ve helped dog moms birth their pups and I’ve even fostered 18 cats and kittens (not all at once lol ) who have now found loving homes. I currently have 4 pets, 1 young Bernedoodle, 1 senior shitzu mix and 2 calico cats. All of my animals are friendly with other animals and range in age so I am very comfortable administering medication, going on regular walks, potty training and even just providing a calm and quiet place for the senior babies to relax. I have plenty of outdoor space in the backyard (fenced in on 3 sides) for play and have a 6 year old who is eager for some additional responsibility. She will be helping with feeding and cleanup (supervised always). I am excited to meet you and your fur babies to see if we are a good fit! Please do not hesitate to ask any questions (: I am currently working remote full time and very flexible. I am able to ensure that your requested schedule for your pet is maintained- any scheduling conflicts will be brought up immediately. I also share lots of pictures and notes throughout the day. I am very aware and involved in my pets day to day routine. I stick to a pretty consistent schedule with my own pets and have no problem sticking to a feeding/water/bathroom/medicine schedule for your pets. I value cleanliness in my home so i do not have much for pets to get into or chew besides regular dog toys. I keep all doors throughout my home closed so that pets cannot enter into those rooms unattended. Outside I have cameras on the front and back of my house and although your pet will not be unattended, this is for additional peace of mind.

About: With over 15 years of hands-on experience as a devoted dog owner, I bring genuine love and deep expertise to every pup in my care. My journey began with Riley, my beloved companion who blessed my life for years before crossing the Rainbow Bridge. Riley taught me patience, attentiveness, and the unique joy that comes from truly bonding with a dog. Today, that love continues with Kenobi, my energetic and adorable 3.5-year-old, who keeps my dog-care skills sharp every single day. Kenobi and I are always on the move — whether it's our regular long walks, hitting the trails for a hike, or joining our local dog walking group where pups can socialize and explore together. An active dog is a happy dog, and I make sure every dog in my care gets the exercise and enrichment they deserve. My reputation speaks for itself — family and friends have trusted me time and again to care for their beloved pups, knowing they'll be in the most loving and capable hands. That trusted word-of-mouth is the foundation of everything I do. While I'd love nothing more than to expand my fur family, the timing isn't quite right for a second dog — so dog sitting is the perfect solution! It lets me share my home, my heart, and my experience with more dogs who deserve top-notch care. When your dog stays with me, they're not just being watched — they're being welcomed into a home that truly understands and adores dogs. Your pup will be in experienced, caring hands every step of the way. Services Offered: 🐾 Dog Walking 🏠 Boarding 🧩 Enrichment Activities I work from home with a flexible schedule, allowing me to center my day around your pup's needs. Whether it's regular potty breaks, feeding times, nap schedules, or simply cuddle time on the couch, I am fully present and attentive throughout the day. Your dog will never feel lonely or overlooked — they will always have loving company and dedicated care from morning to night! I have one 3.5-year-old Cavapoo named Kenobi who would love to keep your pup company! Crating, playpen setting or free roam can be offered depending on your dog's temperament and individual needs. And if your dog loves the outdoors, my large yard provides plenty of space to run, explore, and play!

About: I've taken care of many animals since I was young, I've been a sitter for 2 fur babies for 2years before I moved and I do have my own sweet girl, she just turned 5 this year. I currently work part-time 4-10pm and I am a college students, so I do make time to be around fur babies, being around pets just bring me peace and happiness especially if I'm keeping company, walking or just playing. I would prefer to walk or go to the pets home, I do have children in my home that are at a very busy age.
About: I understand animal behaviors and aspire to be a trainer eventually. While working in a boarding facility I noticed the dogs were not happy, uneasy and confused. Some wouldn't eat for days, some wouldn't go potty outside, and most would desperately look for their owners during our walks. And don't even get me started on how disarrayed the cats were. From that experience I knew I wanted to encourage pet owners if they must leave their pets, leave them at home, or in a homely environment, where they can be undividedly attended to, loved and cared for. I am a stay-at-home mother/wife, writer, artist, and animal lover with ample flexibility throughout the week. I like to plan my days at least 24 hours in advance to ensure efficiency in all my duties. Nature, nurture, and animals are part of my purpose for living I believe. Therefore, their wellbeing is what I care about. I am disciplined, forthcoming and honest, and enjoy interacting with others of similar character. Even though I play heavily with animals when they want to play with me, I also create an atmosphere of mutual respect and order, usually upon 1st introduction. This allows the pet to follow my lead and trust in me as a child would a parent.

I take pride in animals and often feel as though i can connect with them better than humans! Other than working in the morning my day is free! I live in an apartment which does not have a yard, but there is a park less than a 2 minute walk from where i stay! My neighborhood is dog friendly and does require leashes on every dog! I can crate your dog if needed, and make adjustments as requested.
About: I’ve been taking care of pets for 14 years now, including my own and many friends, neighbors, and family. I work as a veterinarian. I’m willing to bathe your pets in addition to their basic needs. I know how to administer injections and other medications your pet may need. I take my currents pets out 3 times a day, and feed twice daily. I like taking them to parks once to twice a week if the owner is okay with that. I would take them out as many times as you see fit before and after class. If your pet is social they can play with my 10.5 year old and 3yr old. Both are very dog friendly and easy going. I do request them meeting outside before I bring them in. I do not believe in leaving your pets with mine while I am gone. Therefore the will be seperate when I must leave.
About: I have been caring for dogs and cats for the majority of my life, starting with my family's pets and continuing with my own senior dog, Minnie, whom I've cared for for 13 years. This lifelong experience has given me a deep understanding of a pet's needs throughout all life stages. What truly sets me apart is my specific experience with senior care, including the comfort and skill to administer medication like eye drops and pills. I am also confident and capable of handling large, energetic breeds, as I regularly care for my sister's two 70-pound Huskies. I believe in a calm and patient approach to every pet I meet, earning their trust and making them feel comfortable and safe with me. Since I work part-time, my schedule is very flexible and allows me to easily fit pet care into my daily and weekly routine. I can accommodate a range of times for dog walks and drop-in visits, and my flexibility also makes me available for last-minute requests. Pet care is a priority for me, and my schedule is built to ensure I can provide consistent and timely care for every client. When caring for pets, whether it's for a drop-in visit or a dog walk, my first priority is to follow the owner's specific instructions and routine exactly as they are laid out. Before starting, I will ask about your pet's routine, personality, and how they respond to different environments to ensure a stress-free and positive experience. For drop-in visits, I will ensure your pet has fresh food and water, gets a potty break, and has some quality one-on-one time, whether it's through play, cuddles, or just companionship. For dog walks, I focus on providing a safe and enjoyable experience, matching the pace to your dog's needs and energy level while being attentive to our surroundings. I believe clear communication with the owner is key, and I will be sure to provide updates and photos to let you know how your pet is doing.
About: I’ve spent my whole life around dogs, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. While I’ve raised puppies—like my sweet girl River, who I had from 8 weeks old to 3 years—I’ve grown to love the rhythm and bond that comes with dogs at every stage of life. What sets me apart is a deep sense of patience, attentiveness, and love that comes from years of hands-on experience. I’m especially comfortable with routines, emotional needs, and making sure your dog feels safe and cared for while you’re away. Whether your dog is energetic, mellow, senior, or somewhere in between, I show up with calm energy, genuine care, and a heart full of love for every pup I meet. I currently work remote so I have the flexibility to go on walks during the afternoon, evening, early morning or whenever they need to go out! I’m currently in an house with no other pets. I have plenty of room for them to hangout and feel safe. I’ll make sure they get lots of cuddles and walks.
About: I’m a huge fan of meeting new pups, and have experience with puppies to grown adults. I treat them as my babies and would love to treat yours as well! I’m currently in ultrasound school and have days off throughout the week and the weekend. I’m very flexible throughout the week, just shoot me a message! I have a fenced yard. I have plenty of treats and chews your dog will love. And plenty of care/love to give! Apollo is still a puppy and very friendly with every dog he’s met.
About: I create a warm and welcoming space for dogs where they can feel at home! Your furry friend is free to roam around my house alongside my own pups, enjoying the company and playtime. They’ll also have the chance to run and explore in my spacious, private 6ft fenced yard, with a handy doggy door for easy in-and-out access whenever they want! I provide constant fresh water, and they can interact and socialize with other dogs, having a blast during their stay. Plus, they'll sleep comfortably in a cool, air-conditioned environment. Your pup will be well taken care of and have a fantastic time here! Retired, available all day, full-time, seven days a week now. I’m available weekends holidays, day and/ or night. There is an extra charge if you want to drop off before 8 AM. I prefer drop off the night before and pick or pick up the next day. I treat all furbabies that enter my home like they’re my children each individual. I get to know their personality and judge them accordingly I’d like to get down on their level and connect with them to eye each dog has its own personality.
“Steph was amazing, taking care of my fur baby, Jax. I can see his love for her from our meet and greet. He was well taken care of during his daily walks. Steph sent pictures and kept me updated on his walking adventures. Steph has a very nice, calming spirit and I will definitely request Steph again in the future.”
About: I am an aspiring veterinarian currently working and in school to learn as much as I can about pets and properly caring for them. I have worked at vet clinics for the past 5/6 years and would love the opportunity to care and help out your pets in any way I can. I am very comfortable with both dogs cats and other reptiles as well. I work at an animal clinic so caring for animals is always apart of my days. Animals station and in my care have the option of coming to work with me where they will have a nice comfy spot for the day. I also am able to keep pets at my home and do potty breaks and playtime throughout the day. I am an experienced animal lover and caretaker. I am able to give meds do some small training exercises. I am comfortable giving medication and working with pets that may not be well socialized
About: I enjoy playing with and walking with dogs. I don't believe pets should be alone for several hours at a time but should be given time for exercise and attention. Dogs are resilient but their feelings should be considered as well. I do not personally have a dog but I grew up with the hem and I watch my neighbor's dogs by playing with and taking for walks . I can tell the pooches appreciate and love being around me. The owners complain that their dogs want to be around me more than them. Dogs are definitely great companions to have for all walks of life and backgrounds. Thank God for the pooches he has created. I love dogs very much and may get one. I walk 2 to 3 times a day. Each walk last 10 to 15 min. I walk in the morning when it's cool and in the evening when the sun has gone down a bit. I make sure things that can cause harm are not easily accessible to the pets. I also leave a bowl of water down for pets to drink throughout the day.

“This was my girls’ second weekend with Jessica and her boyfriend, and they were so excited the moment they realized where we were—that’s always such a comforting feeling. Jessica kept me updated with pictures and videos all weekend, and the dogs clearly had the time of their lives! I’ll definitely be booking with them every time I go out of town from now on!”
“Glenn was great, our two dogs were a little nervous when I dropped them off but after their two day stay they didn’t want to leave. They ran back into his house. They were happy and smell great. If I need a sitter again no doubt I will use Glenn again.”
“Tavia was awesome!!!! She took great care of Bentley while we were away and sent us daily updates. Bentley was smiling in every picture! I will definitely use her again! Thanks for everything Tavia!”
“Justice & Kristian took such great care of Dior and put our minds at ease by sending photos and updates several times during the day. They were caring and made sure she was well taken care of in our absence. We would definitely recommend and will be using them again!”
“A Real Dog Whisperer -- I feel so fortunate to have been able to leave my dogs with Mary Claire over the weekend. I didn't think my dogs would be willing to go to a sitter, but they went right to Mary Claire and jumped right into her car. She has a calming energy that makes the dogs (and people!) feel comfortable. I have three small dogs (all with Jack Russell and two with Chihuahua breeds in them). They are quite a bunch and can be a handful. Mary Claire handled them superbly. They came home looking better behaved than when I left them. Honestly! I could go on and on. But you'll see for yourself. Mary Claire has the magic touch.”

“Brittany is an absolute joy!! She was extremely communicative and quick to answer any questions I had. Bao hasn’t stayed with anyone we don’t know but when I say as soon as I dropped him off she let him get comfortable even though he was anxious and can be mouthy, she was so confident everything would be fine, it put me at ease! Will be booking every time I’m in town 😍.”

“Rebecca did an amazing job taking care of our Gordo! She sent pictures and videos multiple times a day and kept us up-to-date on how he was doing. He really got the royal treatment with lots of cuddles and treats. She even bathed him for us before pickup because he played in the mud. We will be going to Rebecca every time we need somebody to watch Gordo!”

“Yunju and her partner were the best dog sitters I could’ve hoped for. She sent me photos, videos, and updates multiple times throughout the day of their walks, meals and hang time and made sure our dog was loved on and cared for! She is very kind, super communicative, and fast to respond. She lives in a safe gated community with a dog park nearby. I would 100% recommend Yunju to anyone looking for fun and reliable pet care. Will definitely be booking with her again!”
