“Peanut had such a cute and perfect stay ever! With the little furry friend and the little girl, Peanut definitely wants to thank you for the cute drawing. We really hope to send our baby again to this perfect family. Thank you for having him ❤️”
“Needed a sitter on short notice while our apartment was being fumigated, I was so grateful for Jennifer taking them in while I was at work. She's very kind, gentle, and caring, providing perfect care for both our sweet kitties. One of our cats had a bit of irritation in her eye from some dirt, and she was able to give her the eye drops we left with her. Absolutely will book her again if/when I need a sitter, you can tell how much she loves what she does.”
“Luci and her family were wonderful with my Lucky…. and took her on short notice when another Rover sitter canceled on me with little notice ! Took her for walks and to the dog park and sent lots of pictures”
“Always an amazing experience with Kerri! Loki always looks like she's having the time of her life in the photos Kerri sends throughout her stay. Kerri is always very responsive and professional!”
“Tracey was great! She helped us out with a last min stay and took such great care of our dood, Miko. She sent plenty of updates and photos, and he came home happy, tired, and clearly well loved. So thankful for her flexibility and the care she gave him. Would absolutely book again!”
“Lidiia took amazing care of my Sheba for two weeks. She was incredibly accommodating and even extended the boarding time twice, which I deeply appreciated. She made sure Sheba was comfortable by boarding her in her own room, giving her the privacy she loves. I couldn’t have asked for better care.”
“Shilpi was amazing!! I have never felt as comfortable leaving my fur baby when going away. Shilpi made the process so easy and gave us steps to make sure we remembered everything. While we were gone she sent many updates and pictures and I could tell my dog was safe and happy. They did a phenomenal job making sure she was eating well and enjoying her stay. When we picked her up too, she seemed so well kept and her fur was so soft and clean which hasn't always been the case when we have left her at other places. I will absolutely be leaving my dog with them again and I know I will feel 100% safe and happy doing so! Thank you to them for taking care of my fur baby ♥️”
“Our pup had such an amazing time with Julie and her family! From the moment we arrived, Chiko felt right at home and quickly became part of the family. He loved playing with their two doodles, Chase and Rusty, and even got to meet their goats, pigs, chickens, and play with their kiddos. Their fully fenced yard (many acres) was perfect for safe playtime and gave us extra peace of mind. Julie went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable leaving him, especially since Chiko is deaf and uses a special collar. She took the time to learn how to communicate with him, which gave us such reassurance. We loved the adorable photo updates throughout his stay, and when we picked him up, he was one happy (and tired!) pup who fell right asleep as soon as we got home. We are so grateful to Julie and her family for the wonderful care they gave our pup, and we can’t wait for him to stay with them again. Highly recommend!”
“Tammy was very responsive and even sent daily pictures of my girls (Helen and Heidi) to me while I was on vacation! Highly recommend to anyone in the ATL/north ATL to book with her! Thanks Tammy, -Reid”
“Lauren was absolutely amazing. I was nervous about leaving my fur babies, but Lauren kept us updated and sent pictures everyday throughout the day. She made this first time experience great! I will most definitely use her services again!!”
“Rene was fantastic with our 2 pups! Got daily updates and the pups looked like they had a great time and felt like family 😊 highly recommended and will book with Rene again!”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care and attention with which Nataly kept our two energetic Australian shepherds (one of them a puppy!). Nataly is a kind person, and she loved our pups as if they were her own! She made sure they got everything they needed according to instructions, she sent lots of pictures, gave them lots of exercise, she communicated superbly, and she was even flexible with our late pickup! Her home and fenced in backyard were exactly what we wanted for these two members of our family! Thank you Nataly”
“Ryan did a great job of taking care of our dogs you can tell he cares about them. He has a big backyard with lots of space to run around. He kept us updated daily and sent us pictures.”
“Lena was very gracious to meet & greet with us on short notice. Her home is 100% set up for the comfort & safety of the pups! I could see from the video & pictures that Lena sent me that Leda was very comfortable during her stay. Our flight was cancelled an hour before boarding so we were unable to travel and returned to get Leda that same day. I was prepared to pay Lena for the entire weekend, but she graciously insisted that I should only pay her for that one day since we had such long day at the Atlanta airport and unable to take our weekend trip. I will definitely be using Lena for our sitter again.”
“We were lucky to have such a kind and sweet sitter! She even took care to celebrate our pup's first birthday with gifts and birthday pictures! Snuggles and love were clearly a part of my doggy's stay with Alesia.”
“Gretchen and Marc are the absolute best!!! This is my first time using them and I can not say enough good things about them. I.have a big, active, rescue weimaraner who has severe separation anxiety and is on medication for this. She is a bit high maintenance… needs lots of love and attention. Gretchen and Marc took such good care of her and sent lots of updates and pics. Clearly she loved being there, and I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing she was just fine! I will definitely plan my future vacations around their availability!”
“Tiffany was wonderful with our Baby Boy; Fitz! We had never left him with anyone before; and Tiffany made us feel comfortable and at ease when we met, at her home! We received pictures and videos of Fitz; He was happy all the time!!! We will definitely contact Tiffany again! We highly recommend her!!”
“Brittany did an amazing job for our dog, Buttons! We could tell he had an excellent time during his week with Brittany. She kept us updated regularly with how he was doing. He was well cared for and made some new friends!”
“We absolutely loved our experience with Lin! She took such wonderful care of our dog Yuki and made sure he was happy, comfortable and truly felt at home. She’s caring, attentive and clearly loves what she does. We felt completely at ease knowing Yuki was in such good hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter!”

“Courtney was amazing! Sent photos and quick updates about our kitties. Was super communicative about her schedule and any changes, and when we got back home our kitties were happy, fed, and well taken care of. 10/10 recommend!!”
“Liberty took such great care of my boys! We have a senior kitty who she kept an extra eye on and kept us updated on his condition and behavior, which is so appreciated. It’s hard leaving fur babies home alone but with Liberty watching over them, I always feel more at ease. Highly recommend!”

About: hi, im Luci. my husband Luis and i are huge animal lovers who would love to care after your pup! we have been watching dogs for as long as we can remember. We are basically my familys certified free dog sitters🤣. We also have a 4 yo daughter, so if your pup is looking for a family home we are the perfect match for them!

About: I have been taking care of pets for 10+ years and have loved every minute of it. Myself and my husband are pet lovers. We have 1 dog (chocolate lab/male/ neutered) and 1 cat (female/spayed) in our home. We have 4 children who love animals and have been taught to be very gentle and respectful to pets. We will give your pets all the love and attention they need while you are away. I am a stay at home mom so your pets will be supervised throughout their stay.

“Nataly took great care of our dogs. She made sure our dogs had proper walks, get food and their treats. She kept updating us about their day. We were very pleased with the stay and will definitely use Nataly again for our future stay.”
About: I have loved dogs my entire life. Growing up being an animal lover, some of my best memories are with my dogs throughout my childhood. Since then, I have always had dogs, and can’t imagine my life without them. I’ve helped friends and family throughout my life care for their dogs - sitting, bathing, walking, etc. We have two dogs of our own, Ollie (a two year old goldendoodle) and Layla (a 12 year old papillon.) We have had both of our dogs since they were puppies, so we are familiar with puppy training as well as the special care that senior dogs need. We consider them members of our family, and I have always hated boarding them at traditional kennels. Leaving them with a trusted sitter has given us such peace of mind when we go out of town, and I hope to provide that same peace of mind for you. I am currently a stay-at-home mom, so I will be able to have your dogs out with me during the day, and have them sleep comfortably in their crates at night or when they’re unsupervised. I will also be able to provide plenty of potty breaks and walks. We have an acre of open yard and a semi-wooded space to have plenty of supervised playtime. We have plenty of room inside and out to run and play! When your dogs are unsupervised, they will be safely in their crate in our large, open, finished basement. I provide boarding for indoor crate trained dogs, who are up to date on all vaccines including Bordetella, are house/potty trained, and on flea/tick prevention. They also must be friendly with other dogs and children.

Communication is also a big part of my care — I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages, so you always know your pet is in good hands.
About: I had three miniature dachshunds until they all eventually passed away from old age. I treated them as if they were children. I am very in tune with an animal’s needs and emotions. Animals that I have never met before, usually take to me right away. When I cared for my father-in-law’s dog for two weeks, he did not want to return home with him….lol. I hate to see any animal suffer or be in danger. I go as far to remove turtles from the road so that they do not get hit and I have tried to save numerous injured birds in the wild. Animals, especially, dogs, provide so much unconditional love. I am a retired law enforcement officer. Thus, I have a lot of availability. I am available Sunday-Saturday 24 hours as long as I am provided at least a short notice. I have a fenced in back yard that I always ensure is securely locked at all times. I would pet proof home ensure no medications or cleaning products, etc are accessible to pets. Also, I would only feed what the owner wanted the pet to be fed.
“I feel so fortunate to have found Priya to help with my fur baby! She accepted a last minute booking for doggy daycare this week when my pup needed to be out of the house for home repairs (we had just done a meet & greet and scheduled boarding for Thanksgiving weekend). Priya made Axle’s first doggy daycare experience a positive one for all of us! She welcomed him each (early) morning and he had the best days playing with her sweet pup Miya & another friend. Priya sent lots of pictures and videos each day that made me smile! She is lovely and kind and took such good care of my fur baby. She has a beautiful home & Axle loved exploring her fenced yard and crashing throughout the house after play sessions. He played hard and (reluctantly) came home exhausted and so happy! She made him feel so welcome and put my mind at ease. She is a fantastic communicator and truly cared for Axle like her own. She kept him safe and well-fed. Axle is looking forward to Thanksgiving weekend with Priya and her family! I am so thankful she joined Rover! Don’t hesitate to book with her if she has availability!”

About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life. My family had 3 growing up, so I would love your trust in taking care of your fur babies! I currently am a dental hygienist, I wake up early take my dog for a walk, come home on breaks and let my dog on a walk. I like to take my dog hiking as well on the weekends! I take my dog on plenty of walks and have him on a feeding schedule. He gets plenty of attention and toys. He likes to go hiking or anywhere I go.
About: I provide care through drop-in visits and dog walking for short and extended periods of time. I always prioritize clear communication with owners and updates as needed. You will never have to worry about your pet being safe - I care for other animals like I care for my own. Offering low rates to build up my profile!! I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, so I prioritize patience, safety, and consistency to help them feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I also provide regular updates, photos, and communication for peace of mind if desired. As someone who values dependable and compassionate care, I strive to create a calm, positive environment where pets feel secure, active, and loved. I currently have a pretty open schedule. However, I do prefer about a week notice in caring for you dog in order to plan accordingly. I will follow any instructions provided according to the client's preferences. I am an extremely trustworthy person with animals, as well as past & current experience caring for children.
“Alesia is amazing!!! Super responsive, detailed, and a true dog lover! We have 3 Pugs and they are on a strict schedule and routine. Thankfully, Alesia met with us the day before to go through their routines to make sure that their wasn't too much disruption. She sent us report cards after every walk, along with pictures, which every dog parent appreciates when they are away from their fur babies! Thank you so much Alesia!!!”
About: I love caring for pets and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away! I've been dog sitting for family and friends for the past three years and have experience with all kinds of pups. From energetic puppies who need lots of attention and playtime to senior dogs who require medication and a little extra care. I know every pet has their own personality and routine, and I always do my best to help them feel relaxed and right at home. I love being active and spending time outdoors, so if your dog enjoys walks, playtime, or just hanging out outside, I'll make sure they get plenty of exercise and attention. If they're more laid-back and prefer relaxing inside, I'm happy to spend quality time indoors too! I also have experience caring for elderly dogs, including administering medications and following special care instructions. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you're away and make sure your pet gets lots of love and the best care possible! Pet care fits naturally into my routine! I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that means going for walks, playing, giving medications, or just keeping them company. I’m flexible with my schedule and always make sure pets get plenty of attention. I always make sure to follow all of my client's instructions and care for their pets as if they were my own. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I will also treat your home with the same respect and care! I prioritize keeping everything clean and exactly how I found it while you're away.

I currently working part time so this will fit into my daily routine perfectly and I will have a lot of time to take care of your pets.

About: I’ve been dog sitting for my parents and neighbors for the last 13 years now! I’ve expanded to friends and other family as I got older! I’m currently working Monday-Friday at an office, but working on switching to remote work so my schedule will be more flexible due to being able to work from anywhere. I have 2 dogs of my own, both I have had since they were old enough to leave their moms, one is 2 years old and one is 5 months now. My 2 year old is always ready to play and normally does really well around other dogs, but does play rough so maybe being around older dogs is not a good idea lol! The 5 month old is still getting trained and learning. I have also always grown up with dogs in the house ever since I was a baby. I can offer references of people that are not family that I have pet sat / house sat for as well.
About: Whether it’s a potty break, a walk, or just some company while you’re out, I’ll make sure your pet gets love, attention, and movement to break up their day. I’m happy to refresh water, give treats (with your permission), and send you a quick update so you know your baby is doing great. I’m available for walks and drop-ins Monday through Friday, between 9 AM and 5 PM, with some flexibility for early mornings or evenings if needed. Weekends can be available upon request just send me a message and I’ll do my best to accommodate! 😊 When I’m in your home, my top priorities are your pet’s comfort and your peace of mind. I follow your instructions closely and try to keep your pet’s routine as normal as possible, whether that’s feeding, walking, playtime, or just relaxing company. I’m respectful of your space, keep things tidy, and always treat your home the way I’d want someone to treat mine. I also send photo updates and quick notes so you know your furry friend is happy and in good hands!
About: Previously, I worked as a kennel tech at a Vet Clinic for about 3 years! I have had experience in caring for cats and dogs (love them both). Along with working with animals at the vet clinic, I have been on Rover for over a year and also offer pet sitting outside of the app. My goal is always to offer the best care for your animals, ensuring you feel at ease when being away from them! I am currently a college student but I have a fairly flexible schedule that allows me to make time in the morning, most afternoons, and evenings. To ensure the safety of myself and the animals, I would be sure to get all of the details on what the pet needs. Such as, medical history, and knowledge of any existing problems or quirks the pet may have. For example, my own dog doesn’t like to eat right away, she likes to graze; this would be something I would want to know just in case. Care and safety are all in the details!
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, and lizards for most of my life. I handle most, if not all of the animal duties inside of my own home, which includes feeding, walking, hygiene, and enrichment! No task is too much for me! I have a lot of free time this summer, so I can do a lot at the moment! When college comes around is when I'll have to change things around. I will ensure that, whatever your animal needs, I will provide down to the very letter. I take animal care very seriously, and will make sure I care for them the way YOU want me to.

“Luci and her family were wonderful with my Lucky…. and took her on short notice when another Rover sitter canceled on me with little notice ! Took her for walks and to the dog park and sent lots of pictures”
“Always an amazing experience with Kerri! Loki always looks like she's having the time of her life in the photos Kerri sends throughout her stay. Kerri is always very responsive and professional!”
“Tracey was great! She helped us out with a last min stay and took such great care of our dood, Miko. She sent plenty of updates and photos, and he came home happy, tired, and clearly well loved. So thankful for her flexibility and the care she gave him. Would absolutely book again!”
“Our pup had such an amazing time with Julie and her family! From the moment we arrived, Chiko felt right at home and quickly became part of the family. He loved playing with their two doodles, Chase and Rusty, and even got to meet their goats, pigs, chickens, and play with their kiddos. Their fully fenced yard (many acres) was perfect for safe playtime and gave us extra peace of mind. Julie went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable leaving him, especially since Chiko is deaf and uses a special collar. She took the time to learn how to communicate with him, which gave us such reassurance. We loved the adorable photo updates throughout his stay, and when we picked him up, he was one happy (and tired!) pup who fell right asleep as soon as we got home. We are so grateful to Julie and her family for the wonderful care they gave our pup, and we can’t wait for him to stay with them again. Highly recommend!”
“Lauren was absolutely amazing. I was nervous about leaving my fur babies, but Lauren kept us updated and sent pictures everyday throughout the day. She made this first time experience great! I will most definitely use her services again!!”
“Rene was fantastic with our 2 pups! Got daily updates and the pups looked like they had a great time and felt like family 😊 highly recommended and will book with Rene again!”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care and attention with which Nataly kept our two energetic Australian shepherds (one of them a puppy!). Nataly is a kind person, and she loved our pups as if they were her own! She made sure they got everything they needed according to instructions, she sent lots of pictures, gave them lots of exercise, she communicated superbly, and she was even flexible with our late pickup! Her home and fenced in backyard were exactly what we wanted for these two members of our family! Thank you Nataly”
“Ryan did a great job of taking care of our dogs you can tell he cares about them. He has a big backyard with lots of space to run around. He kept us updated daily and sent us pictures.”
“Gretchen and Marc are the absolute best!!! This is my first time using them and I can not say enough good things about them. I.have a big, active, rescue weimaraner who has severe separation anxiety and is on medication for this. She is a bit high maintenance… needs lots of love and attention. Gretchen and Marc took such good care of her and sent lots of updates and pics. Clearly she loved being there, and I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing she was just fine! I will definitely plan my future vacations around their availability!”
“Tiffany was wonderful with our Baby Boy; Fitz! We had never left him with anyone before; and Tiffany made us feel comfortable and at ease when we met, at her home! We received pictures and videos of Fitz; He was happy all the time!!! We will definitely contact Tiffany again! We highly recommend her!!”
“Brittany did an amazing job for our dog, Buttons! We could tell he had an excellent time during his week with Brittany. She kept us updated regularly with how he was doing. He was well cared for and made some new friends!”
“Pat was super! We are so glad we were able to find her. She is very friendly and professional. Her home is clean and neat. She sent us pictures on a regular basis and our dog Brynn was very happy in her home. I would highly recommend her for anyone.!”
“Goldendoodle Queisha took wonderful care of our 6-year-old Goldendoodle. We really appreciated the updates and the stress-free boarding experience for the day. We look forward to using her services again in the future.”
“I had the pleasure of having Jess take care of my pup for 5 days. From the very beginning, it was clear that she truly loves animals. Stella (Sweet Pea) was well taken care of, and Jess kept me informed with updates and photos to give me peace of mind while I was out of town. Stella (Sweet Pea) has separation anxiety, and Jess helped ease the transition, gradually introducing her to the other pets and helping her to feel more at ease. I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter and would definitely recommend Jess to anyone looking for reliable, caring, and professional pet care.”
“Megan was amazing and our dog Cooper enjoyed playing with her dogs. He was well taken care of while we were away. I will be using Megan from now on. 🤗 Would highly recommend her to everyone.”
“Amy did a fantastic job! We had a very last minute trip and the day of she accepted our puppy. She took sooo many pictures and videos. She did exactly what we asked at night time because our pup gave separation anxiety. Our pup seemed SO happy but also worn out from play with their dogs (who seem so sweet). We will definitely be hiring her again for future boarding.”
“Jillian was extremely accommodating, and took great care of our Kobe! She sent updates and pictures daily to let us see that he was OK. We will definitely book with Jillian in the future!”
