We will be using her again! Definitely recommend. 5 stars!”

“We had a great experience with Mya! She watched our dog Ruby at her house. We got tons of pictures and communication. I felt comfortable knowing my demanding dog was getting all the snuggles she needs. Mya is clearly a dog person who will treat your pet like her own. We will definitely book again!”

About: I create a peaceful and loving space for your fur babies! I focus on providing comfort-centered care for any type, including anxious and senior dogs. I have significant experience with small senior dogs and “micro-dogs,” but I am happy to welcome all pets. I grew up on a Wisconsin farm with a variety of animals, including deer, raccoons, rabbits, cats, and dogs. I truly love animals and believe no home is complete without them. For our guests, I have a fenced-in courtyard with pet turf, a lovely nature trail nearby, and a dog park. I offer a calm and quiet environment filled with cuddles. I see pets as family members and will treat your fur babies with the utmost care. I work from home and am always available to take care of the fur babies. My home office is next to the courtyard entrance so the pups can be let out any time. I have a fenced courtyard, and am mostly at home with an 11-year-old chi/rat terrier mix. Pups will receive plenty of love and attention. Nature walks and a dog park are just a short walk away!
About: I grew up surrounded by dogs and cats, giving me a lifelong understanding of pet care across all life stages, from playful puppies to wise senior pets. I have hands-on experience caring for reactive dogs and confidently administering medication, as well as managing special feeding needs, including dogs with megaesophagus. Currently, I care for my own special needs 5 year old mixed breed “pound puppy” and a lively 2 year old Cavalier King Charles/Golden Retriever mix. When your furry family members are in my care, you can trust that they will receive the same love, patience, and personalized attention that you provide every day.

I currently do a bit of volunteer work throughout the week and have a good amount of flexibility in my schedule that allows me to focus on providing attentive and consistent care for your pets when needed. Pets staying with me have direct access to a fenced in area for quick bathroom breaks or sun-bathing. During the day, dogs have free access to roam throughout my home, allowing them to feel comfortable and at ease. At night, I accommodate each pet’s preferred sleeping arrangement—whether that’s in a crate for security or snuggling with me in my bedroom—ensuring they feel safe and loved around the clock.
About: Hi! I'm Kate, a lifelong dog lover based in Woodstock, Georgia. My husband and I share our home with three spoiled pups—Scout, Olive, and Frank—who are truly part of our family.

Whether your pet loves long walks, playing fetch, cuddling on the couch, or simply sticking to a familiar routine, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I'm naturally organized, dependable, and communicative, so you'll always receive regular updates, photos, and honest communication throughout your pet's stay or visit.

About: I work from home and would love to host and care for your fur babies while you are at work or away on vacation. I have loved animals of all types my entire life. My husband and I formerly rescued and fostered multiple rat terriers and placed them in loving homes through an organization called New Rattitude. I currently have a volunteer position with the same organization as a microchip coordinator. While I was in high school and college I worked for two animal clinics in the Metro Atlanta area and volunteered with local animal shelters. My family pets over the past 22 years were 2 Rat Terriers and 2 Rat Terrier/Chihuahua mixes that all lived to be seniors. I have experience in caring for dogs of all ages. Since I am at home so much, your dogs will be not be lonely, they will be doted on and treated like royalty. I have a large fenced in yard for sniffing, exercise and exploration. I only take one client at a time. I do not have any pets of my own. Yours will have my undivided attention and care. I will update you with photos and status reports on a daily basis. Please understand that while we have experience with senior dogs and dogs with special needs, we are currently unable to book dogs that are experiencing incontinence (even with diapers) and night time pacing/spatial disorientation/sleeplessness that comes with senility. Since I work from home, I will keep your dog on any required schedule such as medications, supplements, specific feeding times, and potty breaks. Playtimes and naptimes will be intermittent throughout the day. I have comfy doggie beds throughout the house and under my office desk. My home is clean and safe. I have a secure, fenced in yard with many areas to explore and space to run around. All gates are padlocked. I also stay outside with the dogs that are in my care. I leave a full bowl of water out 24 -7. I allow dogs to sleep in my bed if that is what they are accustomed to, I can also crate them if that is preferred. Your dog(s) will be safe and happy as guests in my home. I have a Red Cross Certification in Pet First Aid in the rare occasion there would be a need. I am also sensitive to dogs with thunder and firework fears, we have a comfy furnished basement space that mutes the bad sounds and we hang out there until everything calms down.
“I would highly recommend….my puppy always seemed very content and happy after a day spent with tycilea ,she also came home tired and ready to snooze.Given how hard it is to tire out a Siberian husky I was quite impressed ……she also acted very excited every time I took her back to daycare….”
About: Dogs hold a special place in my heart — especially rescue pups. My own dog was rescued from Kosovo, so I know firsthand the patience, love, and extra TLC that rescued dogs sometimes need. For 10 years, I’ve been the go-to person for walks, feeding, bathing, and all-around tail-wagging good times. Shy, anxious, or high-energy — I’ve loved them all. I don’t just watch dogs, I get them. Expect real-time photo updates, happy zoomies, and one very tired, very content pup waiting for you when you’re back! I work from home full-time, which means your pup is never left alone! I’m available for walks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the entire day — mornings, afternoons, evenings, you name it. Flexible scheduling is my middle name. Your dog will feel right at home with me! I have a spacious yard where pups can run and explore freely. I also have an 11-year-old dog of my own — a calm, gentle companion who’s great with visitors. The yard is not fenced, so I always supervise outdoor time closely to make sure every pup stays safe and sound. Your dog’s safety is never left to chance!
“Edward was amazing with my rescue dog, Dunkin. He took care of him the entire day, sent pictures and video updates through the app, and made me feel like my pup was in really good hands. Edward allowed Dunkin to roam freely around the house, didn't mind him getting on furniture, and made the whole experience really easy and stress free. He provides a laid back environment that really allows the dog and the owner to relax and not worry about a thing. I would 100% recommend him and I will definitely be using Edward again!”

“I was a little nervous about booking Xander’s first walk through Rover, but Madison really put my mind at ease. She was communicative, responsive, and thoughtful. She offered to bring Xander a treat for the first introduction and even sent me a picture of what she gave him. Madison made the entire process very smooth, and she demonstrated her experience with larger dogs very well. Xander had chewed up some playing cards and strung them across the floor, and she went as far as picking up after him and setting them in a neat pile out of reach! I will absolutely be requesting her services again.”
“Kathy was amazing! We recently had her do daily walking for our dog Raolcan. She was communicative and professional, friendly and did a great job with Raolcan. I know he was happy to make a new friend for these last few weeks. Definitely recommend her! Thanks Kathy!”
“Gina has been absolutely wonderful. She is reliable, kind, and truly cares about the dogs she walks. She always sends updates and makes sure the dogs get great, thorough walks. Alaska was always happy and well taken care of, and I felt completely at ease knowing she was in great hands. Highly recommend her.”
“I reach out to Emmanuel to walk my dog and it was a great decision I'll definitely use his services again in the future he did really great communicating and sending me pictures of my dog. Thank you.”
About: Hi, I’m Charity! Having had animals all my life, I truly have a deep love and respect for them. To this day, one of my most favorite jobs was my very first job in high school at a dog boarding facility a short four wheel drive through our woods. My responsibilities there were to let dogs out, love on, clean/sanitize kennels, feed and administer medications, and clean up the dog yards. I gained so much experience with different breeds while there, which made me fall more in love with dogs specifically. As an adult, my first dog was a West Highland Terrier named Gabby that my then fiancé (now husband) surprised me with. She sadly passed at 14.5 years old in October of 2024. We also have bench bred/English Labradors named Abel & Jett. Jett is the first dog I’ve had that I got involved with dog shows and sports with. He has multiple titles from obedience, dock diving, fast cat, conformation, and hunt tests. I am a stay at home mom which allows me the freedom to be available for your dog majority of the day aside from when I need to run errands. BOARDING: We have a spacious home on a culdesac with a large fenced in backyard. When caring for pets in my home, it is incredibly important to me to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and well-loved while providing lots of snuggles and play time. Daily updates of how your dog is doing along with pictures are sent to help keep your mind at ease. During a client dog’s stay, they will be on the main floor with our family. We have a basement with access to the backyard complete with a dog room furnished with 3 4ft x 6ft kennels, Kuranda beds, & orthopedic beds that my personal dogs will utilize, and is available for client dogs as well if needed. I also have a baby gate on our laundry room doorway off the kitchen that can be used for client dogs to have their own private space. This allows me to ensure every dog stays safe when not supervised. *I typically only board one client at a time. This allows your dog(s) to get all the attention and, I believe, have an easier transition staying in a new place vs there being multiple dogs from different clients. If a ‘regular’ requests the same dates, I will sometimes make an exception and let both families know there will be an additional dog. With my home set up, I am able to comfortably keep several client dogs separated and will only allow interaction between them with the approval of both families. DROP INS: During drop-in visits, our time is spent going out in their backyard for potty breaks and play, going on walks, getting loved on, and fed if needed. Any quick tidying I can do in the house (vacuuming, mop up if it’s muddy outside, wipe down counters, scoop out a litter box, etc) I am happy to do as well.
About: I’m experienced with a variety of dog breeds, temperaments, ages and sizes! I have had experience for all my life, growing up with dogs and being the go to dog sitter/walker for all my friends and family. I work a 9-5 so my routine for dogs would be weekends, weekdays morning and afternoon. I’m able to take lunch breaks for mid days walks. Depending on service the dogs get premium care, attention and play. If I’m working I’ll make sure I can either work from home or take breaks so pups aren’t left alone for long. Proper feeding is important to me as some dogs require specific feeding/medicines, and treats. I’ll accommodate to whatever needs you and your pups have!

About: Hello! My name is Kenzie, and I’m a zookeeper with a lifelong passion for animals of all kinds! Throughout my career, I’ve had the opportunity to work with a wide variety of species, with giraffes being my specialty. Working in animal care has taught me the importance of adaptability, patience, and individualized care. I have extensive experience with daily care and feeding, administering medications, following medical procedures, and safely relocating animals when needed. I love knowing all the little quirks that make your baby unique, what kind of scratches they like, which toys are their favorite etc. The more I know about their needs the more fun we can have together! Above all, I have a huge heart for animals and make their comfort, safety, and individual needs my top priority. I’m available for flexible drop-in visits as well as dog walking, and I would love the opportunity to care for your critters like they’re my own!

At home, I’m also a proud cat mom to two rescue cats, each with their own unique health needs that I manage alongside them. I’m especially passionate about choice-based and cooperative care, and I bring that same philosophy to every animal I work with. I’m very comfortable caring for nervous or shy animals and will always respect their boundaries and give them space when they need it. On the other hand, I’m a big animal lover, so if your critter is looking for some extra cuddles and affection, I’m always happy to oblige!
“Nikki is fantastic! She is clearly a dog person! She communicated really well and did everything we asked of her and more. Most importantly, the dogs loved her! We will definitely be asking Nikki to help again!”

About: I've had doggies since I was 8, and I've helped take care of other people's pups since I was 12. I've had lots of experience with the elderly and disabled pups as well. I have had training experience, but am not quite experienced enough to call myself a trainer. If there is training you would like to continue working on with your pups, I will do my absolute best to help in any way I can. Ps. I have a beautiful 10-year-old husky and pointer mix named Skye, she is who you see in the photo! I am a college student with a part-time remote job, so my schedule is very open. I would love a job that would help me get outside more often and spend some time with animals! I am a huge animal lover; Fur babies truly make the world go around! While right now I can't take your fur babies into my home. I have a lot of experience in pet sitting for fur babies in other people's homes, and I will respect any boundaries you set.

I am not currently looking for too many overnight stays because I do have 3 cats of my own to watch after. I have 3 very spoiled cats of my own that gets all of the attention that I can provide as well as daily play time and brushing. I keep to a very strict feeding schedule because one of my cat does have some food insecurity issues so I try to be very mindful of that. While taking care of my family’s dogs that require medical attention, I keep a check off list next to the food in order to insure that their medications that are either taken with or taken right after food are administered accordingly.
“Diane was amazing, and went above and beyond. My dog seemed to love her. We had a piece of mind knowing that Diane was there for our baby. Definitely recommend Diane and will use her again.”

“Megha is wonderful! Your dog gets a comfortable, happy place to stay where they are well cared for and you get peace of mind. We were nervous about leaving our Golden Retriever for the first time. But we knew from the initial meet and greet that Bunker would be in good hands. Megha has the perfect set up in her home to care for the dogs. She is focused on safety as well as knowing their routine to keep them on their schedule as much as possible. The daily updates and pictures were reassuring that our boy was doing well and having fun! We can’t recommend Megha enough!!”

“Auburn was absolutely fantastic in caring for our dog, Malo. She went above and beyond not only did she do an excellent job with all the tasks, but she also sent wonderful photos throughout, which really put our minds at ease while we were away. We could tell Malo was relaxed and happy in her care. We will definitely reach out to her again in the future. Highly recommend Auburn to anyone looking for dependable, caring, and attentive dog care.”
“I couldn't be happier with René! From the moment we dropped him off, it was clear that our dog wasn't just being boarded; he was truly welcomed into her family. She treated him like one of her own. It was such a relief to know he was happy, comfortable, and receiving so much love and attention while we were away. We got regular updates and photos, which we really appreciated. We'll definitely be using her again!”
“Charity and her family are awesome humans. This was our first time “boarding” our dog. I put boarding in quotations because quite honestly, our dog got to be part of Charity’s family for the week, and it probably felt more like a spa and playful summer camp to our dog than boarding. We usually send our dog to stay with family or friends the one time per year we actually get to leave town. So we were anxious sending her off via Rover for our first time. Charity is super sweet, kind, clearly loves animals, and definitely knows how to handle them. Our anxieties were immediately at ease when we met her and her family. She further eased them with daily photo updates, and she even wiped our dog’s eyes with warm towels due to some allergies! Ya’ll, this dog had it better during boarding than she did on our farm. Our dog is a husky and though pretty chill for that breed, I’m 100% confident in Charity and trusting in all her abilities to handle and care for any pup. She loved on our dog like it was her own. She also was very flexible when our flight home was delayed and we had to extend an additional night. We certainly recommend her and would definitely use her again.”
“This is my third time using Ty's services. Everytime my baby comes back he's so calm and and just seems at peace. I just know he's loved when he's with her, So lucky to have found her! I would recommend her over and over again! (Ty) Thank you so much again if you're reading this!”
“Jennifer is so friendly and welcoming. Our dog Buddy was well looked after whilst we were out of town. We were grateful for the pictures and updates. Thank you again! 😊”
