“JR and his family are absolutely the best for my dog sitting needs. This is the second time my dog Findley has stayed with JR and both times I arrive back home to a calm happy dog. My dog is quite spoiled and JR is happy following my dogs feeding and treat routine. JR takes him for walks and plays ball with him in the nice fenced in yard. Receiving pictures while I’m on vacation is a wonderful plus that eases my mind while I am missing my dog. JR treats dogs like family and is very responsive when messaging. I highly recommend JR and so thankful to have him take good care of Findley!”
“We love having James watch Winston. We know Winston is safe, well cared for and having a great time. We also get lots of fun pictures of Winston making himself right at home.”
“Thanks Uncle Richard for your flexibility. I made a mistake in my booking and was able to extend my visit, so sorry about that. Also had some potential travel plans due to Crowd Strike, that he was willing to bend and flex. Always appreciate your genuine concern and care.”
“Delmina was awesome with Titus. She was very loving and caring with him. In fact she spoiled him rotten! She treated him like one of her own. I will and have recommended her to friends interested in her services.”
“I was very nervous of boarding my fur baby but let me tell you Yanjin was amazing. She sent daily photos of my baby he seemed very happy. I will definitely use her services again”
“Karen and her family are AMAZING! They’ve watched our golden retriever puppy before and this time we returned and added our older, much more timid dog, who has never been comfortable anywhere outside our home, and even typically goes on eating strikes when we leave town. With Karen and her family, both dogs were happy, playing, and eating every day! They were so kind and sent lots of updates showing just how much fun our dogs were having! We’ll definitely be returning!”
“Bella had a great time. She stayed at a house , not in a cage. I received morning and evening comments and pictures. Linda was very kind and if we need birding again, we’ll be calling her again. I am confident I will be sharing this experience with my friends and family.”
“Adriana was great with both my dogs--one of whom can be very feisty. She kept me appraised of all their doings, and they seemed to be fine with their brand new sitter. I highly recommend her.”
“Anita is GREAT. Anita and her children welcomed my dog with open arms. She sent lots of photos daily and was very responsive. We will be using Anita as long as she does rover! 5 STAR”
“Carolina was absolutely wonderful! I needed a last-minute boarding reservation, and she responded quickly and made the entire process easy and stress-free. Throughout my dogs' stay, she sent daily updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that she genuinely cared for them and treated them like they were her own. When I picked them up, they were happy, well cared for, and had obviously received lots of attention. I highly recommend Carolina to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and responsive dog sitter. I will definitely be using her services again in the future!”
“Our pup is always thrilled to go to Nekeisha’s. And she comes back to us well taken care of. We are very pleased with her care and plan to use this sitter as often as possible.”
“Lania was absolutely amazing with our cat. We were so nervous about leaving him with someone he didn’t know but Lania put us right at ease. She took it slow with our shy guy and by the end of his stay he loved her. The daily videos were also great. I would 10000% let her watch Pochi again. Thank you for taking great care of him!”
“Dominique was absolutely wonderful to work with! Our pup is our entire world so it was important for us to find someone that we could trust. We loved her daily updates and the fact that she gave our baby lots of love during the day like she would get at home. Highly recommend!”
“Skye was amazing. She was attentive, very communicative and always provided plenty of info and tons of great pictures. Our dog had an amazing time hanging out with Skye and we’ll be sure to call on her again to live on our pooch when we need a sitter.”
“Hilary is absolute best! I was nervous leaving my senior pup with a sitter for the first time as he has anxiety issues and and she went above and beyond to communicate while I was away. She sent photos and thorough check-ins every single morning without me having to ask. Will definitely rebook with her!”

“Morgan did a great job taking care of my two cats while I was out of town for an extended weekend. She was easy to work with and carefully follows the instructions I left for their care. I’ll definitely be using Morgan as a pet sitter during my future travel needs!”
“Elizabeth did an excellent job looking over our cats! She took good care of the litter boxes and played with the cats. I would rebook with her for our next vacation”
“Rebecca was wonderful! She came to my home to feed my cat, clean the litter box, and made sure everything was taken care of while I was away. She kept me updated throughout each visit with pictures and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear she genuinely cared about my cat and treated her with kindness. I would absolutely book with Rebecca again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter!”
“I can’t recommend my cat sitter enough! She took amazing care of both of my cats while I was away. My cat, Mr. Kiwis, absolutely hates new people and usually doesn’t warm up to anyone. In fact, the last time I left him at Pet Suites, he came home completely traumatized. This time was a completely different experience. She was so patient with him that he eventually became comfortable around her, which says everything about how caring and attentive she is. My other cat, Chelsea, was also in great hands. It was her first time ever being away from me, so I was nervous, but she came home happy, healthy, and acting completely like herself. Knowing my cats were safe, loved, and well cared for gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. If you’re looking for someone who truly treats your pets like they’re her own, I highly recommend her. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“I want to say Andie at the last minute's notice supported my need and cared for my two cats, even with one that is very difficult. She is truly a great animal lover and provider and will use in the future possibly just checking in on them in my home. Both have been well taken care of and she did an excellent job keeping me updated. Thanks again for everything”
“Amber is simply a whole different level. Her level of genuine dedication and care is infectious. She has taken care of my kitties in a long stay (over 2 weeks) and a few days, and I have nothing bad so say about her. Highly recommended.”
“Donnis was excellent! She consistently communicated while we were on vacation and sent the absolute cutest pics of my babies. I will definitely be booking again in the future.”
About: I love animals of all species- but dogs hold a special place in my heart! I have been dog-sitting for about 6.5 years now, and have enjoyed every furry visitor I've had. I just enjoy sharing space with them! I currently work from home, so I have the ability to give them all the attention they need and take them along for adventures (with permission). I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby and making an amazing connection with you both! In seemingly stressful or chaotic situations I’m able to maintain my composure. I find that my demeanor makes dogs feel comfortable and relaxed upon meeting them, so in-home check ins will be smoother for your pet and I! Thank you for taking the time to read my profile, I look forward to providing excellent care for your beloved furry friend. I currently work from home, which allows a flexible schedule. I love having a dog over so I have more reason to take a walk. I have an open-space studio where they will be hanging out with me during the day. I always reach out to the client for a meet and greet to discuss their pet's behaviors and needs so I can adjust accordingly.
About: I cared for my own Ragdoll cat for 3 years and truly love spending time with cats.I understand their personalities and needs,and I provide a safe,calm,and loving home environment. Your cat will be treated with patience, attention, and plenty of care while you are away.

About: I have my own babies and have been through classes and training on how to train them and signs of their feelings. I love cats, they're easily my favorite so any opportunity to be around them I absolutely love!
About: I love dogs and cats too, I got into dog - sitting when I first moved to Georgia and my neighbor went out of town I watched her dog while she was gone and have been dog sitting ever since. I love going out and walking dogs and playing with dogs. I make sure they feel like they are loved and with their owners when I watch animals I love making them even little treats and dinners. Also if you have specific thing your animal eats then you can count on me to make sure they have a good healthy meal, I also am good about giving them their medication. I understand how people love for their animals as if they were their children and I totally get it. You worry about them and want to make sure they are taken care of well. I myself even hate the thought of my animal being alone for over a long period of time because of work or school.

“Felicia was great with Grayci. She sent tons of photos and videos to reassure me that I made the right decision. Before I knew it, Grayci was handing out kisses like they were candy. So happy my fur baby loved her. Will be using Felicia again soon.”
“As always Richard and family were awesome! Sadie could not wait to get to Richard when we arrived! It is so great to have someone I can leave Sadie with and know she is well taken care of. I will be scheduling the next doggie daycare day soon.”
“We were nervous about leaving our three pups (two older and one puppy) as we had not done it with the two older ones. Yanjin was great and made us and the pups feel immediately comfortable. Their tails were wagging we when arrived to pick them up and seemed to be happy. This was a great first visit and hope to leave them again!”
“I give Karen 5 stars for all the pictures and video that she send me, I can see my little Chippy was extremely happy running around with his friends.

“As most pet parents we were apprehensive about having a dog walker we didn't know. A dog trainer referred us to Rover so we felt better about using the service. The meet and greet with Jenn put us at ease. Today was their first walk. It's no wonder she has so many repeat customers and excellent reviews! She goes above and beyond. We have a challenging situation right now but having her makes one less thing to worry about!”
“Adriana is awesome. She takes time with my pup and does a great job communicating with me. She also, takes care to follow the instructions carefully. I will definitely recommend using her services.”
“Naomi was very communicative which I thank very much because I could not be there to receive her, it was of great help not to leave my doghter unattended 🐕, I highly recommend.”

About: I provide personalized, in-home style boarding with structured playtime, daily walks, enrichment activities, and plenty of affection. I prioritize safety, communication, and a calm environment where dogs feel secure, loved, and comfortable. My home, I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment where pets are treated like family. I maintain a consistent routine with scheduled potty breaks, daily walks, structured playtime, and plenty of supervised interaction. I only accept a limited number of dogs at a time to ensure personalized attention and safety. Pets have comfortable resting areas and constant access to fresh water. I follow feeding schedules exactly as instructed and can administer medications if needed. In a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining the pet’s normal routine to reduce stress. I follow all care instructions closely, provide regular updates with photos, and ensure the home is respected and left exactly as I found it. My goal is always to create a stress-free experience for both the pet and the owner. Pet care is naturally integrated into my daily routine. I schedule walks, feeding times, play, and supervision throughout the day to ensure consistency, attention, and a calm, structured environment.
“Caroline was timely and communicated with me about the walk and how my pupper was doing. She made sure my dog’s water bowl was replenished after their walk. Would recommend Caroline!”
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals for as long as I can remember — since I was under ten, I’ve been helping neighbors with their pets and have grown up surrounded by all kinds of animals, from rodents and lizards to ferrets, guinea pigs, cats, and dogs. I bring that lifetime of experience, patience, and genuine love to every pet I care for. What sets me apart is that I don’t just provide basic care — I make sure each animal feels safe, happy, and loved, treating them like a member of my own family. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or just cuddles, I aim to give every pet the attention and care they deserve. I currently teach special education, with work hours from 7:30 a.m. to 3:15 p.m. This schedule gives me the perfect opportunity to care for your pets either before I head to work or right after I return home. I also have my summers completely open, making me available for vacations, daily care, or extended pet sitting during that time. I’m happy to provide consistent, reliable, and loving care tailored to each animal’s needs. I offer boarding in my home, where your pets will get plenty of love, attention, and playtime while you’re away. I also provide walks and daily check-ins at your home to make sure your pets get exercise, companionship, and care on a schedule that works for them. While I don’t offer overnight stays in clients’ homes, I’m dedicated to making every pet feel safe, happy, and loved.
“Lillie was wonderful! She walked Shenna three days in a row when I couldn't, and Shenna loved her -- was so excited at the door when Lillie arrived. We did hour-long walks that ended up being around 2.5 miles each day, and my girlie always arrived back home happy and tired. I will more than gladly do repeat bookings. Thanks so much, Lillie!”
About: I have 9 years of experience caring for animals, including 7 years as a veterinary assistant. I have cared for dogs and cats of every age and personality, from energetic puppies and curious kittens to anxious rescues and gentle seniors. My approach is calm, patient, and loving. I move at each pet’s natural pace and focus on building trust through consistency and positive attention. I am not formally certified, but I have helped teach several dogs basic obedience and simple tricks through reward-based training. Every animal I care for receives the same warmth and attentiveness I gave my own beloved dog, and I always aim to create a safe and relaxing experience for them. I balance organizing and design projects, which gives me a flexible schedule and the ability to dedicate real, focused attention to each pet. Most days I’m available for morning, afternoon, or early-evening visits, and I can often accommodate weekend bookings. I plan my care commitments intentionally so every client receives dependable, unrushed attention. When caring for pets in their home, I keep their usual routines consistent so they feel safe and relaxed. Before visits, I always take time to understand your pet’s personality, comfort level, and any special needs. My background in veterinary care taught me how to handle animals gently and how to recognize subtle signs of stress, discomfort, or behavioral shifts. I’m calm, patient, and affectionate, always respecting each pet’s boundaries and pace. Your home and your pet will be treated with the same care and respect I’d give my own.
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. I am great with puppy training and all cares needed for your furry friends. I have been around dogs my whole life and am very loving and caring with all animals! I am in the process of finding a new full time job so my availability is wide open to take care of your furry best friends! I always am taking pups on walks. I love to play with the animals. I also have experience with dogs with anxiety and willing to give medication if needed. Your furry friends are always very well taken care of with me!
About: I have hands on experience caring for dogs of different ages and needs, including senior dogs who require extra patience and attention. I’ve done multiple day pet sitting where I followed a set schedule for feeding, potty breaks, and check-ins throughout the day. I’m very attentive to routines and understand how important consistency is for pets. I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owner is away. I also provide updates and pictures so you always know how your pet is doing. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for to make sure they receive consistent attention, feeding, and bathroom breaks. I’m flexible and able to do morning, afternoon, and evening visits, and I make sure I’m fully present during each visit so your pet gets the care and attention they deserve. I prioritize keeping pets comfortable by sticking closely to their normal routine. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully for feeding, walks, and any special care needed. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection while also keeping their environment clean and safe. For pets that need extra patience, like seniors, I take my time and make sure they feel calm and secure.
About: I've been taking care of animals a vast majority of my life. From fish and birds to dogs and cats. I have experience caring for animals in all stages of life. I also have prior experience working with all types of dogs, as I used to work at a professional daycare and boarding business as a room attendant. There I was a keyholder, prepped dog food and meds, as well as picked up after any messes without any difficulty. I live with two dogs myself, and watch them for my roommate when he goes out of town. I do have cats that don't mind dogs too much. I have a fenced in back yard and a dog door that goes out to the back as well. I love working with my own cats, as well as the fur babies of others to better understand dog, cat, and general animal behaviors. I love animals, so getting to work with them fuels said love. I treat all animals as if they’re mine. I believe in positive reinforcement training, as well as redirecting misbehavior to something more entertaining for both me and the pet.
About: I’m a longtime cat owner and have hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs. I’ve cared for my own cats (Willow and Forest) and also helped care for a family’s dog while babysitting — feeding, walks/potty breaks, playtime, and keeping routines consistent. I’m detail-oriented, respectful of your home, and I communicate clearly with updates so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. Hello! I’m currently attending university and majoring in journalism (public relations concentration) and marketing with a minor in psychology. I’m currently on summer break so my availability is open but it will change once I start classes again in mid August. My care style is routine-based and body-language focused. I don’t force interaction; I let pets settle in and I build trust first, especially with cats. I provide attention and affection when they want it, and I watch closely for cues (hunger, stress, overstimulation, fatigue). I follow all instructions precisely such as feeding, fresh water, litter maintenance, walks/potty breaks, play/enrichment, and any special notes. I keep things calm, clean, and consistent, and I send updates/photos so you’re never guessing.

“The perfect stay. Cotton was pampered and spoiled. She loved looking for the rabbits and watching for the squirrels. She was so tired from having a grand time she slept like a rock. She absolutely loves spending time at this wonderful welcoming home.”
“Savannah did a great job with our dog. She made us feel at peace with all the picture updates she sent. Savannah is fantastic! Her dogs are really sweet too!”
“We used Jennifer's services for an overnight stay at her home. Jennifer was great to work with and very flexible around our schedule. Our pup Sadie had a great time! I would definitely use Jennifer again.”
“Ryan and his family are lovely people and took excellent care of my dog. They have a young Aussie who was also sweet and my dog came back to me very relaxed and happy (and very tired after all the fun!). Ryan offered to bathe my dog after he got dirty on a hike, which was very thoughtful. He sent frequent photos and kept me in the loop with everything, which put me at ease after having a poor experience with a previous Rover dog sitter. I couldn’t recommend this family enough! Thank you Ryan and family!”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Kathryn while we were away for a week! Leaving Zeus for the first time was honestly nerve-wracking, especially with his medical needs, but she completely put our minds at ease. She was incredibly attentive, patient, and understanding, making sure he got all the care and attention he needed. It was clear from the updates that he was happy, comfortable, and in great hands the entire time. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better first experience, and we’ll absolutely be using her again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“We hit the jackpot with Riley. She is truly a gem. Riley is very personable and clearly loves all critters. We knew from the meet n' greet that our Daisy would be in good hands. Daisy is our only dog so I wasn't sure how she would be with Ryder but he is a marshmallow, a sweet gentle giant. Ryder is the perfect doggie good will ambassador. Riley's home is perfectly suited with a big fenced yard, lots of outdoor space, and great folk on the inside. :) She sent us pictures every day to ease our doggie withdrawal. I never had a moment's worry about Daisy, and Riley even had her spruced up with a bow and a daisy on her collar when we picked her up! Whenever we need Daisy looked after again, Riley will be our first, second, and third choice. :) Riley, don't go anywhere!”
“Pamela and Barry were extremely warm and kind to my Biggie. I knew from the first meeting that this was the option for me. They treated my dog like he was their very own, which was something that helped me to relax, as this was the first time I'd let anyone outside of family watch my dog. My dog will definitely be back. 10 out of 10, highly recommend.”
“This was my first time using a dog sitter and Jill made me feel so at ease . She kept me updated with pictures . I will definitely be using her again. My Lulu loved being at her home”
