“Angie is absolutely amazing! From the moment we met her, I felt completely at ease leaving my pet in her care. She’s incredibly attentive, kind, and truly treats your fur baby like one of her own. Angie sent regular updates and adorable photos, which made me feel so connected and reassured while I was away. My pet came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter—thank you, Angie! Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving.”

“This was my first boarding with Katie and her family. It was a wonderful experience. Such a nice family and felt very comfortable the entire time my dog was with them. I can also tell my dog loved them as she cried most of my drive home after picking her up which for me is a clear sign she was well cared for and loved. ❤️ Definitely recommend!!”

“Our girl, Sparkles, truly enjoyed her stay with Lesley. She was treated like one of the family, had a great time playing with Lesley’s dogs, and I was sent lots of photos of Sparkles enjoying herself. :) I also loved the idea that Lesley was home most of the day so my girl didn’t have to feel nervous about staying home alone in a house she was unfamiliar with. Thanks, Lesley!”

“Kimberly and her husband are super loving and caring, and we’ve felt at such ease having Noodle stay with them. They offered a meet and greet before to help Noodle be at ease before she comes to stay with them, and it helped all parties make sure it’s the right alignment. My husband and I so appreciative of them!! Thank you!”
About: I've taken care of animals my whole adult life but most recently my 2 senior dogs (brother and sister) passed away within 4 months of each other 💔 I miss loving on them but not ready for a full time commitment, so Rover seemed like the perfect answer! I will provide quality care for your pups and offer plenty of companionship and play time as well as walks and feeding and the normal care. It would be an honor to give your pups the attention and love they want! I work from home so they would have company almost continuously except when I'm out running errands. I have lots of dog toys and beds and blankets so they will always have a warm inviting spot to hang near me in my office while I work. Depending on your dogs needs, they will be walked and fed on their schedule and I can give meds as well if needed. We are super dog friendly in that they are allowed to roam freely and be on the furniture for snuggles if they want. If you have them crate trained then I will follow any crate rules as well. In your home, your rules apply!
“Charity was absolutely incredible with my lab and golden who stayed with her for 6 days. I was very nervous using Rover for the first time and as soon as I met Charity, she eased all my fears. She has so much experience with her dogs, as do her adorable children and they were so sweet with them! She sent me a lot of beautiful photos to ease my mind while we were away and handled my lab throwing up on the second to last day with such grace like a pro. My dogs were so welcomed and relaxed into their home very quickly. My golden takes a lot of supplements and Charity was so precise to even notice that I left one of the supplements off my instructions and she messaged me to confirm. She was extremely responsive and communicative through the entire process from my inquiry just a week and an half before our trip until even after we got home checking in on my lab. She’s amazing!!! I would 1000% recommend Charity to anyone looking for a caring and kind pet sitter who will treat them like her own. I would love to book with Charity again in the future for any short trips we take!”
“Absolutely wonderful! Friendly and was willing to spoil my baby in my absence. She sent pics of him enjoying himself with her and her family too. Mellow had a great time we will definitely book with Maria again!”
“Mikayla did a great job taking care of our pup. She was so sweet in every communication, gave us daily updates, and we could tell our pup was happy to stay with her. Highly recommend! Thank you!”
“Always thankful to know Rudy is safe and happy with Sarah M. He is happy and healthy when we p/u Rudy. Rudy likes his vacations with Sarah every time he goes.Thanks Sarah”

If you hire her, I'm sure you will be more than happy!”

About: I have taken care of my own personal dogs throughout their lifespan from puppies to mature dogs. I am held at a high regard in my neighborhood as a dog sitter who is able to maintain a schedule, give sufficient playtime, and follow personal instructions accordingly. During the summer I am always available at home where I am able to give maximum attention to the pets. During college school season I am home on the weekends, Tuesdays, and Thursdays all day. Monday, Wednesday, Friday I will be gone from around 7 am to about 3 pm. I have a fenced in back yard of about half an acre that does have a pool. If your baby loves to swim they are more than welcome to. If water is an issue I can easily walk them on a leash. I have 2 golden doodles that are extremely friendly and crate trained. I have dog beds your fur baby can sleep on! My neighborhood is very small and safe so I can take them on plenty of walks.
“Michelle was absolutely wonderful. I have a very shy cat and Michelle was able to bond with her and give her the attention and love she needed while we were gone. Thank you, Michelle, for taking such great care of Cleo!”
“Robin was soooo good. I couldn't have asked for more. My typically shy cat warmed up to her quickly. She kept me informed eyery day. If you choose her I'm sure you won't be disappointed.”
“They did an incredible job taking care of my two cats. I was nervous about boarding them but they had a nice guest room set up for them (not a cage or kennel). They kept in touch and were very responsive and flexible. Would definitely use them again if we need to board our kitties.”
“Tamara is the best! Her schedule is flexible, & she's thoughtful & considerate in her communications/updates. My cat, Serena, responds "paw-sitively" (sorry--couldn't resist!) to the TLC Tamara provides. I feel reassured when I read her updates, & see all the wonderful pictues. Tamara is a caring pet lover extraordinaire!”

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. Caring for them has taught me that every dog has their own personality, routine, and unique needs. 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. I understand how difficult it can be to leave your pet behind, and I want you to have complete peace of mind knowing they're being treated like one of my own. Safety is always my top priority. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise routines, and any special requests to make your pet's experience as stress-free as possible. I have experience caring for: • Puppies • Senior dogs • Large breeds • Multiple dogs at once • High-energy dogs • Dogs with special routines I'd love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family member! I'm currently home full-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. I can easily accommodate your pet's normal routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and medication if needed. Whether your pup enjoys being active or prefers relaxing at home, I'll make sure they receive personalized care and lots of love while you're away. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. We have a secure, fully fenced backyard for supervised play and three friendly, well-socialized dogs. I carefully introduce dogs based on temperament and can easily separate pets or use crates if preferred or needed. I follow each owner's care instructions closely, maintain a clean and safe environment, and provide regular photo and video updates so you always know how your furry family member is doing. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable, loved, and at home from the moment they arrive.
About: I'm happy to give your pup all the love he/she needs in a safe and structured environment. I have been caring for friends'and family's dogs for years and love having them in my home! I work remotely and have plenty of time to walk and play with your pup. I have no children in my home but do have an abundance of treats and attention to give. I have a friendly foster failure who loves other dogs, a dog door, a fenced yard, and a flexible work schedule. I'm typically home throughout the day and can spend time walking, playing with, or just giving belly rubs to your fur baby.
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.

You can expect clear communication, updates, and a stress-free experience knowing your pet is in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine.

I’m especially reliable during weekdays and can often accommodate weekends with advance notice. I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine.

She also sent lots of pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing Precious was happy and well cared for.

About: I have been a client on Rover for a long time. I’ve had many sitters watch my dogs and come in and out of my house. It was always so nerve wracking! Are they trustworthy? Do my dogs like them? Are they getting to my house on time to let my dogs out to go to the bathroom and to feed them? Are they being gentle with my dogs? All of these thoughts lead me to become a sitter on Rover once I put my corporate job on pause and became a mom. I have lived with pets my entire life and rescued my first dog 11 years ago. Since then, I have rescued two more pups and volunteered at a local rescue. Being a pet owner myself, I understand what it’s like to have someone take care of my animals that is kind, honest, and most important, trustworthy! It’s such a relief knowing our animals are in good hands and safe while we cannot be with them. My wish is to be that for others - a reliable, caring, honest, loving caretaker for your animal that not only makes you feel comfortable, but your animal as well. Time spent away from home and your animals should be 100% stress free. I am a mom of two young children and have a very flexible schedule. I am available weekdays and quite a few weekends to take care of your pets needs. I will make myself available and flexible to work with your animal and their daily needs. I understand the importance of a routine! Whether it’s a long walk or run in the neighborhood, playing fetch in the yard, or relaxing and snuggling, I am here to make your pet happy and comfortable.

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.
“Charis did a wonderful job with my scardy cat dog. She was willing to meet her early and let my dog get used to her before their first walk together. She’s been super quick to respond and very communicative! It’s made me worry a lot less about my pup through the day!”
About: I want to take care of peoples pets like they are my own. I’ve had my own pets (cat and dog) my whole life. I also take care of dogs and cats for other people all the time.

I will make sure to follow all the clients rules and watch them like the pets are my own. I will always make sure to leave everything clean and treat the houses like my own.

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.

About: I understand the stress and anxiety that come with leaving your pet in someone else's care because I've been there myself.

I'm currently enrolled in college part-time and have plenty of time to ensure your pet's needs are met! I'm available 5 days a week as I designated 2 days towards class lecture and school work. Upon entry of every home, I like to identify any potential hazards or risks so I can be extra viligant and safe when providing care for your pets. Personally, I ensure my own yard is secured and free of potentially harmful plants and objects.

“Caden made an instant connection with my dog Charlie. I introduced them and then they went on a walk together. I immediately booked Caden for the three days the following week. He was on time all three days and notified me when the walks were finished. He brought in my UPS package and texted me. He also gave Charlie a drink and filled up his water dish. I found Caden to be very personable, on-time and responsible. I unconditionally recommend Caden.”

“I couldn't have asked for a better experience as Jillian, and her family made my pups feel like part of the family right away. Thank you again for taking such great care of them, and allowing me to travel without worry!”
“I would happily leave my pup with Cynthia and her family again! She took time when I first dropped Athena off to help her be comfortable. Nothing was rushed. She was very communicative for the entirety of my trip.”
“Angie is absolutely amazing! From the moment we met her, I felt completely at ease leaving my pet in her care. She’s incredibly attentive, kind, and truly treats your fur baby like one of her own. Angie sent regular updates and adorable photos, which made me feel so connected and reassured while I was away. My pet came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter—thank you, Angie! Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving.”
“Karen is beyond amazing! My dog was so comfortable and quickly became friends with her friendly dog. She found several cozy spaces to take her naps in. I got several updates with photos and videos everyday which I appreciated so much.”
“Excellent boarding for our giant dogs! Just what we needed. No stress, no worry, great communication. We will definitely be using time and again. Thanks for an effortless service!”
“She is the best sitter we have ever had. House was very clean & odor free. Husband and dog were also exceptional. We would love to have her sit again if she will have us.”
About: I've taken care of animals my whole adult life but most recently my 2 senior dogs (brother and sister) passed away within 4 months of each other 💔 I miss loving on them but not ready for a full time commitment, so Rover seemed like the perfect answer! I will provide quality care for your pups and offer plenty of companionship and play time as well as walks and feeding and the normal care. It would be an honor to give your pups the attention and love they want! I work from home so they would have company almost continuously except when I'm out running errands. I have lots of dog toys and beds and blankets so they will always have a warm inviting spot to hang near me in my office while I work. Depending on your dogs needs, they will be walked and fed on their schedule and I can give meds as well if needed. We are super dog friendly in that they are allowed to roam freely and be on the furniture for snuggles if they want. If you have them crate trained then I will follow any crate rules as well. In your home, your rules apply!
“Charity was absolutely incredible with my lab and golden who stayed with her for 6 days. I was very nervous using Rover for the first time and as soon as I met Charity, she eased all my fears. She has so much experience with her dogs, as do her adorable children and they were so sweet with them! She sent me a lot of beautiful photos to ease my mind while we were away and handled my lab throwing up on the second to last day with such grace like a pro. My dogs were so welcomed and relaxed into their home very quickly. My golden takes a lot of supplements and Charity was so precise to even notice that I left one of the supplements off my instructions and she messaged me to confirm. She was extremely responsive and communicative through the entire process from my inquiry just a week and an half before our trip until even after we got home checking in on my lab. She’s amazing!!! I would 1000% recommend Charity to anyone looking for a caring and kind pet sitter who will treat them like her own. I would love to book with Charity again in the future for any short trips we take!”
“Mikayla did a great job taking care of our pup. She was so sweet in every communication, gave us daily updates, and we could tell our pup was happy to stay with her. Highly recommend! Thank you!”
“Always thankful to know Rudy is safe and happy with Sarah M. He is happy and healthy when we p/u Rudy. Rudy likes his vacations with Sarah every time he goes.Thanks Sarah”
“Chan took very good care of Sawyer and Dutch. They played a lot with his white golden, and I received many photos and videos of my dogs. I would definitely trust Chan again to take care of my dogs.”
About: I started walking dogs for neighbors as a way to get in extra exercise on the weekends and ended up loving it! Other neighbors saw and soon after inquired for weekend walks! I’ve dog sit for friends and family members whenever they’d go off on vacation or away for work trips. I have experience with dogs with anxiety, blindness, medication administration, and puppies! I’m a tattoo artist searching for a fun, outdoorsy, active side gig to get me out of the house and into fun shenanigans with sweet pups! I treat all pets as if they’re apart of my own family, because they are -woof-! I’ve cared for elderly pets, special needs pets, and puppies and understand that not all pets are the same, some require more time to gain trust while others are more outgoing; some need a 5 minute break to relax mid walk, while others are high energy the entire time through! I’ve experienced it all and look forward to working with you and your pet!
“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!”
“We had the best experience. Having never used a dog sitter app, Angie was the best. She was great about communication, what I needed to bring, dog safety, and the dogs loved her. We would recommend her to any doggies. 10/10 experience.”
“Kobe and Cocoa are best friends now! Cocoa absolutely loves having dog friends, and Kobe had the best time with Nicole and Cocoa. Kobe clearly had so much fun with them. Nicole sent us regular photo and video updates, which made us feel completely at ease while we were out of town. We never had to worry. We will definitely be leaving Kobe with Nicole again next time. Highly recommend!🐶”
“Megan did an amazing job watching our dog! She sent us daily updates with photos and had great communication throughout the entire stay. Our dog loved it over there.”
“Buddy stayed for a one night test run before we leave him with her for 6 days next month. He doesn’t like to be separated from my husband, so we’re a bit worried. But Jennifer sent me pics of him completely chill getting Belly rubs from her daughter. ❤️ When we picked him up he didn’t even rush to leave. He was very content. Such a relief for us and we are so happy to have found her!!”
“Reyna and her family took amazing care of our pup! He loves to run and they had plenty of space for that. Our return flight got delayed and Reyna was very accommodating to take him another night for us. Our pup came home tired and happy:)”
