“Monique had great communication skills and checked in multiple times per day with updates and pictures. Sammi seemed happy and well taken care of upon pick up. Thank you!”

About: My pet care experience comes from raising my own Pomeranians over the past couple of years, plus caring for a range of small and medium dogs and cats owned by family and friends. I have hands-on experience with walking, feeding, and grooming, and I'm comfortable adapting my approach to different breeds, sizes, and personalities. Since I'm currently in the process of applying to grad school, I spend most of my time working from home. That gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability, so I can easily fit boarding into my week and give pets the attention they need. I live in an apartment near a dog park, giving pets plenty of room to explore and play. My two Pomeranians are friendly and social, so your pet will have built-in companionship during their stay. I provide a play pen along with toys for entertainment, and I like to prepare homemade food, such as a broth made with meat, carrots, and pumpkin, for a comforting, home-cooked touch.
“Chyanne was amazing with Piper! She sent the sweetest updates and photos, and Piper looked like she was having the best time. She absolutely loved playing with Chyanne’s dogs and settled in right away. I felt totally at ease knowing she was in such good hands. I’ll definitely book with Chyanne again — highly recommend! ❤️❤️”

“Rachel did an amazing job taking care of my dog. She sent frequent updates and photos, made sure she got plenty of exercise, and was clearly attentive the entire time. I’d absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful sitter.”

“He took great care of my dog and provided daily updates. I was comfortable he was in good hands. His husky mix is adorable and played well with my dog. I booked a 2nd stay.”


“Pablo & Sybil seemed to have thoroughly enjoyed their holiday and it was sweet that Canvas (Anais’s dog) seemed to want them to stay. When I got home, they were not famished or overly thirsty, meaning they were well cared for. Highly recommend & will book again. Thank you!”

“Thank you for another wonderful experience. Nico loves you and means so much to my family. When I ask for updates you make it simple and your patience with me in booking was phenomenal. Your feedback on Nico was helpful as well. We look forward to working with you again very soon. Thank you for the bottom of my heart.”

“Audrey and Isaiah are AMAZING!!!! They made me feel so comfortable leaving my baby boy with them. I was provided with constant updates and pictures that eased my anxiety. I will definitely be a repeat client!!! Thank you Audrey and Isaiah!!!”

About: Dogs have had a special place in my heart ever since my own was rescued on Valentine’s Day after being found tied to a tree. Watching her adjust, gain confidence, and become part of our family made me appreciate how different every dog is. Since then, I’ve loved getting to know each dog’s personality and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. Whether your dog is staying with me, I’m coming to your home, taking them on a walk, or simply stopping by for a check-in, I’ll follow their routine and give them the attention they deserve. I’ll also keep you updated with pictures and messages so you always know how they’re doing. My goal is for both you and your dog to feel at ease while you’re apart. I’m currently on summer break, so my schedule is very open. During the semester, I’m typically available for boarding after 5:00 PM on weekdays and as early as needed on weekends. If you have a specific time or date in mind, just reach out. I’m always happy to communicate and find a schedule that works for both of us. I provide attentive, consistent care tailored to each pet’s needs and the owner’s instructions. In my home, I maintain a calm and safe environment with regular walks, feeding schedules, and supervised activity. Since I live in an apartment, daily walks are a key part of the routine, and nearby Phoenix Park is where we usually go for exercise and stimulation. I make sure pets get the opportunity to stay active, explore, and release energy in a healthy way. If a dog is social, they may interact with other dogs, but if they are shy or the owner prefers one-on-one time, I always adjust accordingly. In a client’s home, I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding, walking, medication, and routines exactly as directed. I respect the home, keep things clean and organized, and prioritize the pet’s comfort, safety, and normal routine so they feel secure while their owner is away.

“Patty is fabulous! She’ll treat your pup as if it’s hers. You’ll get video updates to keep you posted so that you can relax and enjoy your time away.”

“Antonio is an amazing sitter! Very kind and respectful. I never had to worry about our dog because Antonio did such an amazing job with providing updates. Would highly recommend!”

“Akeeme was very responsive and took great care of our baby while we were away. We had to make a last minute booking and he accommodated us and kept us updated on Axel throughout the weekend!”

“Katie took excellent care of Hazel! She sent me daily updates and pictures. Before Hazel’s stay, we had the chance to meet, and Katie ensured that she was fully informed about Hazel’s needs and personality.”

“Ashley was fantastic with our cat, Buster! She was extremely communicative, went above and beyond during the pickup process, and made us feel comfortable while we were traveling internationally. Will book again!”

“Richard and Samma were great with our dog, who has not had many boarding experiences or time with other dogs. They introduced him to the other dogs individually and helped him in handling meal time and lap time with the others. They were very communicative and sent frequent pictures and texts about his stay. We would definitely recommend them!”

“Chasity was great! She kept me updated with my dog throughout the day and was flexible with my pick-up time the following day. Indigo enjoyed her time and we would definitely book again!”

“Kathleen is my favorite sitter. She’s so energetic, so kind, so attentive! Izzy always has a blast at her home! She has a great backyard for any pup run around. I could go on & on about her, so grateful for her care <3”

“North had a great stay. I loved all the pictures she sent of him. I’ve never used rover before and she made me more comfortable by sending the pictures. Will be booking again!”

“We loved having Barron take care of Tosco! He made sure to learn all about him before we dropped him off and he was very responsive and caring. Will definitely be requesting his help again!”

“Meridith is wonderful. She is kind, conscientious, thorough and great to work with. I would recommend her…and Inwill definitely use her again.”

“Vivian was excellent. Our cats warmed up to her immediately. She was very communicative and sent more than enough photos each visit. We highly recommend her!”


“Max did drop in visits for my cat, Baloo. He was well taken care of and I got regular updates, which I really appreciated. He was at ease and comfortable from day one. I requested a favor to take my garbage bin to the street and my expectations were exceeded. I highly recommend booking Max, 10/10. Thanks for taking care of Baloo, Max!”


“Andrea was incredible with my two kittens! I was out of town for a week and she made me feel so at ease, I will definitely book her again. She was communicative and sent photos after each visit. One of my cats is very shy around new people, but I was happy to see that he quickly opened up to playing with her. Andrea also went above and beyond by brushing my cat with longer fur, and leaving out extra cat toys from my closet to make sure they were entertained when home alone. I also came home to a nice clean apartment. Definitely book her if you get the chance!”


“Enakshi was great with my kitty! She was very communicative, timely and understanding. I would definitely recommend if you are looking for a pet sitter.”


About: I've cared for several cats, each with their own unique personality. I've learned that cats cannot fully be understood and are most likely from another planet. But, they're adorable and like to engage with me.

“Audrey took great care of my two cats while I was away. One needed medication, and she had no problems giving it to him. She even took out the trash before we got home (I’ve never had a sitter do this before).”
About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give every dog as if they were my own. I grew up with dogs, so being around them comes naturally to me, and I truly enjoy spending time with them. I also regularly care for my nephew (a high-energy Goldendoodle) and my niece (a small Papillon), so I’m comfortable handling both larger, active dogs and smaller breeds with different needs and personalities. I’m patient, attentive, and adaptable—whether your dog needs lots of playtime, structured routines, or a calm, gentle approach. Pet care fits easily into my routine. I work full-time, but I’m available after 5 PM on weekdays and fully available on weekends. I also work from home occasionally, which gives me extra flexibility for daytime care and check-ins. I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and on their normal routine in their own home. I follow all instructions closely—feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care—while giving them plenty of attention and affection. I adapt to each pet’s needs, whether they’re high-energy and need exercise or prefer a calm, relaxed visit.
“I had to request Julia only a couple of days before my trip and was happy that she was flexible to have a meet and greet with our cat the next day. Julia was great with him. This was our first time leaving him but she made sure I felt comfortable. She sent great updates on how he was doing and also sent really great pictures (two of them are my fav pics of him now). I am more at ease now if we will go on another trip because I know if we leave our cat with her, he will be in great hands.”

“This was round 2 with my girl and she’s AMAZING. I can’t stress enough how much my lil guy loves her and she’s always prompt and on time. Follows my notes and is just the sweetest :)”

“Alyssa took great care of our cat, even cooked salmon skin for her to have as a treat. We got several precious photos every day and enjoyed the daily updates!”

“My Kitty absolutely loves Shanese, and I do too! She’s so responsive and reliable, even on short notice! She makes sure to give my fur baby all the love and attention she needs while I’m away. Highly recommended for anyone in the area looking for a sitter!”


“Nicole did such a great job with my two cats and hamster while I was away. We just moved to a new area so could no longer rely on our usual pet sitter who now lives too far away, but Nicole made me feel so reassured that my babies were in good hands. Nicole sent updates and pictures every day and was very communicative throughout the whole visit. It is clear Nicole has a true passion for animals and I will absolutely reach out to book again in the future when I need care for my babies. Thanks again Nicole!!”

“It was wonderful working with Lauren! She made sure our kitten got plenty of love and attention while we were out of town for a long weekend. Very easy communication and coordination throughout our booking. I highly, highly recommend working with her. Thank you!”

“Emma did an amazing job this weekend! She took very very good care of my boys. She had excellent communication throughout, sent adorable photos, and kept me updated. I really appreciated her letting me know about a small issue in the house—she handled it professionally and with care. Will definitely be hiring her again!”


“Abbigail did an absolutely amazing job taking care of our kittens, Perry and Poppy! She was attentive, reliable, and clearly has a natural way with animals—the kitties loved her. We felt completely at ease knowing they were in such great hands. As it was holiday season, Abbigail even gave us sweet treats as a gift. Abbigail is the best. I’ll definitely be asking Abbigail to cat-sit again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional pet care.”


“Lorien is awesome! She did daily drop-in visits for my pup, and he absolutely loved her. She’s caring, communicative, and took great care of my boy while I was at the office (always took great photos too). Highly recommend!”

Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
About: My husband and I are experienced dog owners in a multi-dog household, including both senior and high-energy dogs. We are calm, attentive, and intentional in our care, which helps dogs feel safe and settled quickly. We focus on structure, routine, and understanding each dog’s unique needs — not just supervision. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease knowing your dog is cared for as if they were my own. We intentionally limit the number of dogs we care for so each one receives personalized, thoughtful attention. Caring for dogs is already a natural part of our daily life. We live in a structured, dog-centered household and plan our days around consistent routines for walks, meals, playtime, and rest. I’m home regularly and attentive throughout the day, which allows us to provide hands-on care rather than leaving dogs unattended for long stretches. On a weekly basis, we maintain predictable rhythms that help dogs feel secure: consistent schedules, familiar routes, and clear expectations. Because this routine is already established with my own dogs, integrating additional dogs feels seamless rather than disruptive. We have a large fenced yard where your dogs can play either alone or with my pups. We have both younger, high energy dogs and a senior dog, so we can tailor the right fit with your pup. We live in a quiet neighborhood near two parks if your dogs prefer walks. We can administer medications and tend to minor medical issues like stitches/Elizabethan collars.
“My pup had such a great time with Richard and Samma! I had a last-minute booking but they were more than accommodative and communicative, and provided plenty of photos and videos to keep me engaged. Highly recommended :)”

“Camryn has been absolutely incredible! After having a bad experience with a previous pet sitter, I was so nervous about leaving my pup with anyone again. From day one, she completely put my mind at ease. Her communication is amazing, and she keeps me updated throughout the day with so many pictures and videos, which I absolutely love. She's also been so flexible and accommodating whenever I've needed it. The best part is how much Rocco loves spending time with her! Seeing how excited he is to be with Camryn and knowing he's happy, safe, and so well cared for gives me complete peace of mind. I truly couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter. If you're looking for someone who will treat your dog like family, I can't recommend Camryn enough!”

“Akeeme is AWESOME! We have booked both overnight boarding and daycare with him and he made us feel super comfortable each time we dropped off our pup. He shared updates and videos throughout the visit, was flexible with drop off and pickup times, very responsive every time we messaged, and overall treated our dog like his own. We are very grateful we found Akeeme!”


About: New to Rover, but not to dogs! I have 14 years of experience caring for dogs: from raising my beloved Pinscher Coco to years of dog sitting and boarding dogs of all breeds and sizes. Sadly, I recently had to say goodbye to my baby and I’d love to share that same care, attention and love I gave her with your dog. ❤️🌈 I’m European and offer what I like to call a “European-style dog-sitting experience”: • One dog at a time. I only accept one dog (or dogs from the same household) at a time, so your dog gets my full attention and is cared for as if they were my own. • Plenty of proper walks. Two lengthy walks of at least 1hr each per day, usually in the park or on the Beltline, plus regular potty breaks. I will NOT go to dog parks until I know your dog very well- your pets safety always comes first. (Of course, everything is adjusted to your dog’s age, health and energy level) • Mental enrichment. Brain-stimulation toys, snuffle mats, treat puzzles, lick mats, playtime and other activities based on what your dog enjoys. • I work from home. I’ll be with your dog throughout their stay, with plenty of company, attention, cuddles, playtime and supervision. • Peace of mind for you. You’ll receive regular photos and updates throughout their stay, so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. • Just bring your dog! I provide everything needed for a comfortable stay: a spacious kennel, food & water bowls, toys, enrichment activities and treats, plus basic kibble if ever needed in a pinch. You’re of course always welcome to bring their favorite bed or toys from home; I just ask that you provide their usual food to keep their routine and diet consistent. I pride myself on offering a true dog retreat. Fair warning: your dog might not want to come home! 🐾😂 I work from home and am home about 90% of the time, which means your dog will have plenty of company, walks, playtime and attention throughout the day. I do occasionally step out for errands, groceries or a workout class. During those times, as well as overnight, your dog will be safely kenneled. For this reason, I can only accept dogs who are fully crate-trained and comfortable settling in their crate. I take this job incredibly serious. I know that for many of us, our dogs aren’t “just pets” - they’re family and often quite literally our babies 🐶❤️ I am First Aid/CPR certified and own a dog first aid kit. After every boarding visit I thoroughly clean and sanitize the space and toys with non-toxic cleaning supplies. Your pups safety, comfort and happiness always come first!
“Thank you Cassandra for making Tashi feel welcome....he looked very happy in the photos. Since he will have an over night stay next week, daycare was a good way for him to get to know you and your place.”

“I couldn’t have asked for a better dog babysitter! She was able to take my dog last minute, which helped me out so much, and from the start I felt completely at ease. She treated him so well and clearly cared about him like he was her own. She kept me updated with pictures and communicated consistently, which I really appreciated. It made such a difference knowing he was safe, happy, and in good hands. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. I would definitely use her again!”

“Deanna was amazing! She took such good care of our sweet girl. Even when I picked Izzy up, she was belly flopping for Deanna. It's clear that Izzy felt safe and cared for. I also really appreciated the updates on how Izzy was getting along with the other dogs. 💜”

About: I grew up with a sweet dachshund and have been a dog-lover ever since! Andrew and I both work from home full time, and that makes us the go-to pet sitter for neighbors and friends. We’ve had experience with both active dogs and those that might need a little more care and patience. We love having a new friend around to keep us company! We both work fully remote jobs and therefore can give your fur-baby all the attention they may need! We always aim to go out at least 4 times a day, but can adhere to your pet’s specific schedule. We offer flexible boarding availability throughout the week and weekends. For any weekend bookings, we do ask that your pet be comfortable being alone for at least a couple of hours since there may be instances where we will be out of the house running errands. While we don’t currently have any pets of our own, our pet-friendly apartment will cater to your furry friend’s comfort. We live on the Beltline making it the perfect setting for long walks or quick potty breaks. We’re more than happy to accommodate your pet’s needs, whether it is crating them or something else.
“Tevin was great. He was quick to reply when I needed last minute help. It seems like my pup had the best time and a day full of fun activities. I got lots of videos and updates. Glad I was able to book with him!”

“Anisha was fantastic with my dog! She was super patient with learning his cues, asked all the right questions, and made me feel so comfortable leaving him. Her puppy was a great playmate and I’ll definitely bring my dog back soon.”

“Daycare with Sarah was absolutely amazing!! We were in the area to visit for just a couple hours and needed my pup to stay somewhere she was super accommodating and updating me very well with pictures very quickly!!! Would definitely recommend!”


About: Hi, my name is Enni and I have been working with dogs and cats for about 12 years. It is a true passion of mine to work with pets. I love them and they love and trust me a great deal. I have tons of experience with people and dogs. Drop your baby off, or I would be more than happy to pick them up to take them to their home away from home filled with love. I have experience as a Kennel Tech for over 6 years. I worked as a room attendant at a Veterinarian clinic and a Veterinarian Assistant. I am also an Professional Pet Stylist. I had pets since the age of 5 years old. Animals are my life! My love for them runs deep.
“Mikyah was amazing from the get go! She was super friendly, my dog (who has anxiety) took to her instantly and loved her! We were an hour away and were late and she was super flexible. Amazing experience, we’re definitely having Mikyah watch our pup again! Thank you for being wonderful! :)”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for as long as I can remember! I’ve owned dogs my entire life and have watched for many family and friends over the years, and have found so much joy with having a home full of dogs. I have a 9 year old golden retriever named Whiskey that I’ve had since he was 9 weeks old. We enjoy going for long walks on the beltline and old fourth ward park every day. I currently work full time from home and make my own meeting schedule and I have weekends off and tailor my current schedule around my own dog. I live in a very active community on the Atlanta beltline. The property is fenced and everyone is friendly. Providing overnight and longer stays as well as daycare during the day.

“Nora took great care of my dog while we visited Atlanta during a road trip. She was very communicative, easy to work with, and made the whole experience stress-free. I highly recommend her!”

“Lauren is so great!! She has walked my pup a few times now (a couple being last minute asks) and she has been so amazing! She spent extra time with my girl after the walks to get her settled back in which I really appreciate on days where I’m gone for work for hours. She is very communicative with me every step of the way too!”


“Luke did a great job with Lucy! He was communicative, punctual, and super kind. Lucy clearly loved him, which means the world to me. I really appreciated the photos, and I’ll definitely be rebooking. Highly recommend!”

“Thank you for walking him! I loved all the pics you provided as well. It’s not you! we’ve been working on the potty outside but he’s on his own agenda lol i appreciate it! let’s try again tomorrow if you’re free? same time?”

Not to mention, my pup had the best time playing with their dog and running around. It was a great experience! We came home and my girl was so moody that I took her away from all the fun! She huffed and puffed and ignored me! Haha”

“so grateful to have found a sitter that I can count on to care for my Maple girl when I have to travel without her. It really is such a comfort to know she's in good hands.”

“Super responsive, communicated and sent pics and updates every day, and loved hanging with my puppy! I felt at ease knowing Jennifer and Nick were taking care of my pup.”

“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!”

“Cocoa had a great time with Meredith. Thanks for taking Good care of our puppy. We will definitely work with Meredith the next time we need pet care. Thanks!”

“Leigh and her husband are absolutely amazing. I knew Keets was in great hands and she looked right at home in all of her pictures on walks and snuggling. 10 out of 10 would recommend!”

“Thank you so much for taking such good care of my Eli! He had a ball playing with his new friends. I loved all of the cute action play shots you sent of Eli. The BEST! Thank you for making his first boarding easy.”

“Such an amazing lady! A ton of updates on our puppy throughout the day, I could tell she did an amazing job watching our boy when he didn’t even seem like he wanted to leave haha. 100% recommend.”

“Kerykay was great. My trip got delayed and she was so patient with me, allowing me to pickup later than planned. She sent pictures of my dog and gave updates as he adjusted to his stay. I was able to enjoy my trip, knowing he was on good hands.”


“Doug was excellent! Him & Prima took great care of my dog. I got constant updates that I really appreciated. My dog came back home a very happy boy. I’m very thankful & I highly recommend him!”

“I used Rover for the first time to find a last-minute sitter for my 12-year-old senior German Shepherd, Juneau, and I’m so glad I found Tyler! She was incredibly accommodating and agreed to watch him on very short notice. Tyler did a fantastic job caring for Juneau and kept me at ease with daily updates and plenty of pictures. Her communication was excellent throughout the stay, and she was very flexible regarding pickup and drop-off times. It’s clear she has a great way with older dogs, and I felt completely confident leaving him in her care. I would definitely use her services again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative sitter!”

“Misty did an AMAZING job taking care of our baby. We had not used Rover before but could tell Misty is a pro and was great at introducing herself and Kiya and getting our pup comfortable. Misty is very communicative and we got plenty of updates (and photos!) throughout the stay. She’s easy to work with and we’ll be booking with her again!”

“Audrey was an excellent host for our Arnold, she was communicative and sent pics regularly. He clearly had a blast staying with her and having access to a yard! Thanks Audrey for the great dog vacay;)”

“Kristen was wonderful! Very communicative, very thorough, super kind, attentive, and my very anxious dog took to her right away which is the ultimate test. Really happy to have found Kristen!”
