Personalized care for your dog or cat - Rome
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Rome
“Haley was amazing with our dog, Atlas. This was our pup’s first stay away from home and Haley worked hard to make sure Atlas felt comfortable and loved. She sent us updates daily with pictures and videos which really helped to alleviate our own anxiety about leaving Atlas. Haley even gave Atlas a bath and brushed her out before we picked her up and that is a job in itself! We will most definitely leave our pets with Haley in the future without concern knowing they will be loved and well cared for.”
“One of our best Rover experiences. From the initial meetup through pickup, we felt completely at ease and confident our dog was in great hands. Communication was excellent, and it was clear our dog was well cared for and happy. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend.”
“Highly recommend! Secure fenced property with lots of room for the dogs to run and play. Kept us updated on a regular basis. Our Goldendoodle’s felt right at home I’m not even sure they missed us. Chelsea will definitely be our go to sitter!”
“Lizdalia and her family were amazing. She came highly recommended and she did not disappoint. My dogs were so happy and adjusted well to her home. She will definitely be my go to person for my furry sons. 🤗”
“Cristina welcomed us with open arms and sent us photos every day. We were thrilled to find such a caring and dig-loving person to care for our doggie. Thank you!”
“Sara was wonderful with Milo. Absolutely loved Sara and her family being willing to keep our dog for the weekend. She did everything we asked and also sent lots of pictures and videos so weren’t missing Milo too much. Milo is an old pup and has lots of medications and such and Sara made sure to not miss one pill or day and provided all the love she could to our Milo. We will definitely be booking with Sara from now on. Thank you Sara!! Milo made some new friends :)”
“Lillian and Gwen are phenomenal with our 3 boxers... it was such a relief that they brought them in and treated them as if they were their own. Plenty of pictures and updates whenever we asked. Our 3 can be pretty rowdy sometimes, being young almost 2yos, lol. The yard was well fenced and they had lots of room for them to run and play. We are so grateful to have you both taking care of them, thank you again.”
“We couldn’t have picked a better person to keep Lulu when we went on vacation for a week! The picture updates, the videos, the daily feedback on how she was doing. I would absolutely recommend Jen to anyone! We are so thankful for her and her family! You will not find a better sitter for your dog!”
“Jennifer is absolutely amazing!! She is so accommodating and sends lots of pictures and updates during the stay! We have been using Jennifer for several months now and my dog feels so comfortable! I 100% recommend her!”
About: I have taken care of all kinds of dogs. I mostly take care of them in the summer when my clients go on vacation. But since I love dogs so much I want to make this a year round thing I currently work as a groomer for Petsmart so I have a lot of experience working with dogs and I love taking care of cats as well. I can provide any type of care, whether it is to walk your dog for 30 minutes to an hour or to keep them company while you are away
About: You can see our reviews in our other profile: https://www.rover.com/sit/janirb12988 🇺🇸 We speak English, Spanish, and Portuguese! 🇲🇽 ¡Hablamos inglés, español y portugués! 🇧🇷 Falamos inglês, espanhol e português! Hi there! 👋 We’re Kaio, Jan and Anik - three lifelong dog lovers who simply enjoy spending our days surrounded by happy pups. Our goal is to give every dog a wonderful experience in a safe, fully supervised environment where they can play, relax, and connect with nature - while giving owners peace of mind through open, caring communication. Among us, we have over 15 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds and personalities. Anik also has a background working in professional dog boarding settings, where she cared for groups of dogs at a time and learned to read their behavior and body language with ease. Our home has a large, securely fenced yard that’s perfect for exploring, running, and sunbathing. Inside, dogs are welcome everywhere - because to us, they’re part of the family. 🐾 We share our space with two sweet resident dogs: a playful 1-year-old Golden Retriever and a calm, gentle 11-year-old Chow Chow. They love meeting new friends and know how to match the energy of any guest - whether it’s joining in a game or simply relaxing side by side. We know how hard it can be to be away from your pup, so we make sure you always feel connected. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and messages - the kind we’d love to get if our dogs were staying somewhere new. At the end of the day, our goal is simple: to make your dog feel safe, loved, and happy - just like they do at home. ❤️ In 2025, we've cared for over 330 dogs, with 114+ repeat clients who keep coming back for our personalized, loving care! We're excited to expand from our half-acre home to a private 6+ acre retreat in Silver Creek, GA—a perfect mix of open cleared fields for romping and wooded trails for adventure. This allows us to build dedicated play yards and special zones just for dogs. What sets us apart: A completely cage-free home where pups roam freely indoors and in secure outdoors—no crates ever! We cap groups at 6 compatible dogs (matched by age, size, temperament, and energy), ensuring tons of individual attention, play, and cuddles. Experienced with all ages—including puppies and senior dogs (meds, mobility help, and cozy comfort). Stays feature daily exercise, enrichment, photo/video updates, and endless love. Your dog will feel right at home here—we can't wait to meet them! I work full-time from home. Pet care is the heart of my daily routine—it's my full-time passion! As a dedicated home-based sitter, I'm here 24/7 with the dogs, structuring our days around their happiness and needs. A typical day starts with morning potty breaks, breakfast, and energetic play sessions in our secure yards. Midday brings walks on trails, enrichment activities (like puzzle toys or training games), and plenty of cuddles. Afternoons are for supervised group play (always small and compatible groups), rest time, dinner, and evening wind-down with more outdoor time or cozy indoor relaxation. To ensure personalized care and a safe, stress-free environment, we keep our groups small. Let’s chat about how we can provide the best care for your pup!
“Cherie is fantastic! I kept having to extend my time needed for a pet sitter as I’m moving and she had no problem still seeing my kitties. Cherie spent time with my cats and went above and beyond to refill their water towers and clean their litter boxes. She ensured my home was safe and secure and I can tell my kitties loved her. Thank you so much Cherie!”
About: I’ve lived in a multiple animal household my whole life. Now I have 3 pups of my own and 2 outdoor cats that come first. I work full-time but am available before 8 am, lunch break from 12-1, and after 5 pm through the week and all day during weekends I have a fenced in yard. Dogs are welcome to go in and out as they please, roam common areas, and take naps wherever, whenever.

Cat caregivers near you - Rome
About: Hi, Jennifer here. 😀 I can't say that I've done much cat sitting, but I have owned cats all of my life. I currently own a Maine Coon mix that I rescued from a feral litter at about 5 weeks of age. He has special needs of his own, a stress disorder called FIC (Feline Idiopathic Cystitis) which causes his bladder to shred when he gets stressed. He is on a prescription stress/urinary diet and we have to make sure to do things that help prevent him from becoming stressed. All of the cats I have owned in my adult lifetime have been indoor only. With that being said, I'm extremely comfortable with litter box care! I'm also familiar with cat hairballs, and have no issues with cleaning those up. I have had cats with tendencies to get urinary tract infections and I understand what to look for and how to manage medications with that issue. I am comfortable with cat care and would love to spend time with your kitties!
“Tessa did such a great job taking care of my dog & cat! She sent lots of pictures so I could see them while I was out of town and was very communicative. Will definitely hire her again! Thanks, Tessa! 😊”
“Samantha is great!! She takes her time to learn your animal’s specific personality and needs. I felt like my cat was good hands. Really went above and beyond to make our Rover experience a good one. We will be having Samantha back again !”
About: I have cared for kittens as small as a few weeks old, as well as cats older than a decade, and I have connected with strays other people thought could never be socialized. My cat is wild and silly like any other, but he also suffers from anxiety and a heart condition, so I am especially empathetic to cats like him, and I have experience giving medication and patiently forming connections.
“Lexie checked on our cats during the month as we requested. She was flexible and did some extra tasks which we ask her to do. She provided regular updates with pictures during her visits. I will ask her again next we need someone to look after our cats.”
“Wonderful thoughtful people! I wish I could give more than 5 stars. Justin & Christina sat with my dog twice a day for 2 and a half weeks while I traveled for medical care. My dog loved them and was very comfortable while I was gone. I can absolutely recommend them and will call them again. ??”
About: I have taken care of animals of every kind since I was a young child. I routinely keep my family and friend’s animals while they are busy or just for fun! I am currently a work from home parent with plenty of time to give your baby the one-on-one time they need! Extra lovings and playtime is taken serious 😊 In your home I will diligently work with your animals the way that you need me too! I cannot wait to meet you and your baby.
“100/10 stars! Kyle was absolutely amazing for our crew! We booked with him last minute & around Christmas time! With 3 dogs, we were slightly worried if he'd be able to handle it, but he handled everything seamlessly & with grace! The dogs instantly were instantly comfortable around him too, and our cat, who is VERY shy, even came out of hiding too! Kyle went ABOVE & BEYOND what we asked & we couldn't have felt more comfortable! He is very knowledgeable & super trust worthy! We will not be using any other sitter ever again! Praying he keeps us! Haha 😊”
“I recently had the pleasure of hiring Ali to care for my two cats for five days, and I couldn't be happier with her service. She is incredibly professional, friendly, and responsible. Throughout her visits, she consistently sent me photos and updates, which gave me great peace of mind. She also took the time to visit my cats before my trip and always responded to my questions promptly. I highly recommend her services—she is truly the best!”
“Madison’s experience at the vet gives our family such confidence that we can leave our dog in the best of hands. Her knowledge on how to handle “skiddish” dogs was perfect for our animal. She’s always on time and dependable. Boba loves her and that’s the most important thing to us. I would 100% recommend her to watch any type of animal you have.”
“Arianna did a great job taking care of our two kitties! She was able to give Pumpkin her medication daily at the same time each day, and she also gave us daily updates with cute pictures. It was great to have the comfort of knowing our cats were being taken good care of, allowing us to have a worry free getaway. :)”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Rome
“Sara was incredible! She responded to communication quickly. Her home is so clean. The yard is fully fenced. She had a calm and reassuring manner with my 2 young Cavachons who were extremely nervous since they have never been separated from me for more than a few hours since I work from home. I could not have been any happier and will definitely have Sara watch my girls again once our move to the area is complete.”
“Champ had another awesome stay with Chelsea and her adorable family. He loves them all and we do too! So happy to have them in our lives. Champ is an only dog so not only are we relieved to have such a great option for sitting, we are so happy he has a great new puppy friend to play with! He comes home happy and tired!!”

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for 30 years. I am an intuitive, attentive caregiver for pets and people alike. I know that your pet's physical and mental well-being are equally important and recognize that sometimes we just need a little extra. Sometimes it's a walk, sometimes it's a belly rub. Whatever it is I love to figure out and help those in my care feel as comfortable and secure as possible. I am a stay at home, homeschooling mom of three older children with a flexible schedule. I can easily accommodate a pet's needs into my day-to-day routine. I am available to watch pets throughout the weekend, but do not accept Saturday drop-offs. Friday drop-offs must be by 4:30pm. I have a fenced back yard with lots of shade and a deck. Dogs are welcome inside. I have three indoor/outdoor cats. As long as your pup won't try to eat them, we'll be fine ;) I regularly walk every day and can walk or run your pup as needed!
About: I personally enjoy spending time with our canine friends, they’re truly amazing souls who teach us actions are what matters most than words.. Dogs can sense our energy, which is why every time I am around a pet, I always seem to connect with them as I am always a calm person. I am so grateful for my Cooper boy, who I actually met on Rover and was one of my first clients. I fell in love with him, and coincidentally he was being rehomed. Therefore I took him in and our bond just grew stronger. We recently lost our beautiful Chango who is the white and black spotty baby you. For him, I choose to love and respect our fur babies at all times and advocate for them even more. I am also a nerd when it comes to caring the natural way for our babies. I am a big raw food feeder and advocate for the right nutrients for our pets. I am experienced in the handling of them as well. Best believe, your pet will be in extremely safe hands and experienced as well. I enjoy doing physical work, and staying physically active throughout my week, which is why this job would be perfect for me. Walking has become a part of my daily routine that I have enjoyed lately and I always enjoy walking my dog I have a closed porch in where I can keep any pets in their crates, or if they are trained, then out freely. My home is completely fenced , & I have a large backyard for dogs to run around in.I also have them on leash at all times.
“Jackie was wonderful with Toby! She gave him so much love and care, and he came home happy and well taken care of. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in good hands. Highly recommend her!”
“This is the 3rd time for Devin to keep my pup while I have been in town for temporary work. She and her daughter treat him very well. He gets excited when we are an half mile from her home. He always has a great time, enjoys the socializing and outdoors there, and always comes away appropriately exhausted.”
About: As a dedicated pet sitter, I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing individualized attention and care. I specialize in creating a calm and happy environment for pets, including experience with managing high-energy dogs, and understanding unique pet needs. With training experience for puppies and a focus on positive reinforcement, I help pets feel safe and loved. Your furry friends will enjoy tailored care, lots of playtime, and endless affection while you’re away! This will allow you to relax and know your bestfriend is happy & healthy I am available every day besides Wednesdays. I will be home and ready to care for your pets fully. Thursdays I travel to Atlanta for work. They are welcome to stay of course but I will be out of the home from 7am-5:00 on Wednesday I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort by creating a secure environment tailored to each pet’s needs. In my home, pets enjoy a clean, pet-friendly space with plenty of supervision. I provide constant attention, positive reinforcement, and lots of love to ensure your pet feels safe and cared for at all times. We live on a dead end road surrounded by fields. We also have an underground fence with extra collars.
About: I’ve been a dog lover since I was a young child! Even when I was barely four feet tall, I delighted in taking care of, feeding, walking, and of course playing with our pups! And now as an adult, I have 2 rescue dogs that I have trained up and loved on (one a senior dog and one a puppy). Caring for dogs truly gives me joy and allows me to pour into others and give back. We don’t deserve dogs, but I sure am grateful we get to share our lives with them! I work full time from home and have complete flexibility with my work schedule. Leaves me time to feed the dogs, let the dogs out in the back yard, and ample amount of play time! I have a fully fenced in back yard with over half an acre for the dogs to play. The outdoor space has ample amount of grass with plenty of squirrels to chase.
About: My family and I live on a wooded property in our tiny home. Our family consists of 1 responsible 12 year old boy and three dogs and a cat. We would love to care for your pets at your home or ours! We love all animals big and small! I am a 10 year disabled Marine corps Veteran and full time artist looking for ways to provide for my family, and help others in need in the community. We are willing to snuggle up your pets just as great as you snuggle, love them like they are our own, make them feel safe in a new space and go on lots of adventures and walks! We are an outgoing family and take our dogs with us! I work from home, so I’ll be able to take care of any needs your family member would need. We are outside majority of the day and your pet will get plenty of love and exercise. I have 6 acres of land that is free to roam at their obedience level. If they are in need of leash walking, that can happen easily.
About: I adore animals and I know life can be rough for us humans now and then. Sometimes you need some help watching your little fur baby . It is my promise that I will out my heart into safety love and playtime for all pets I've currently moved here to Missouri and haven't found a job yet ,pet sitting would help me alot due to all my exsperience in seattle. I listen to all my clients instructions so the best care can be provided, and never go against the rules the owner provides or routines that maybe in place
About: I currently pet sit often for my best friend. She has a rescue dog that has special requirements and I have gained his trust and go walk him and his brother when she travels. Understanding that the dogs past experiences can influence their behaviors is very important to me. Some need more patience and understanding than others. I work from home and love spending time with my dogs during work breaks. I can love on your baby during the day as well! I have a big home where your pet is welcome to roam. If they are crated at certain times, I can accommodate that as well. I have a small and large crate in the guest room. If I am stopping by to walk your dogs or feed your cats, I can give them treats and spend time with them as well!
“Sadie’s friends Beau and Bella (black labs) we’re visiting and we needed day care for the week. Bobbie Jo was the perfect solution. She took such care of them and her property was the absolute dream place for the pups. They were tired and happy when I picked them up. She spoiled them so much I was worried they would want to stay!! Plus Bobbie Jo is a wonderful delight. I will always depend on her for taking care of my fur babies. Thank you Bobbie Jo!!!!”
“Alyssa was a perfect fit for Kirby!! I could tell he had a lot of fun and enjoyed his day because he slept like a rock. When I brought Kirby back for his second day with Alyssa he ran right up to her and acted like he was home. Friendly neighbors, perfect secluded spot to feel safe, and loving people. Kirby and I are excited to use Alyssa’s service when we are back in her area.”
“Every time Molly stays with this wonderful family, my heart feels at peace. I know she’s loved, safe, and so well cared for. They treat her like one of their own, and that means the world to me. Thank you for always taking such amazing care of my girl! 💛🐾”
“Kelsey was very accommodating to my schedule due to a bunch of last-minute changes on my part. She provided me with pictures, thorough out the day, that really put me at ease. Kelsey is a rover you'll definitely want to use.”
About: I have been a vet technician for over 10 years now and currently in school to become a registered vet technician. I’m able to monitor your pet especially if having conditions such as diabetes and/or have chronic conditions. I love the furry babies and love what I do! I own a two Boston terriers and have a family of my own that is my world! I can guarantee you that your pet will be taken care of with ER experience so I would know the signs for sure if your baby needed medical help. Since I work at an animal hospital this is a win win situation! Only that I can use my knowledge and skills to help owners feel at ease when leaving their furry babies with me. My dogs are SPOILED especially my bostons. We go on daily walks, I do not crate them but when I have pets that I do sit, I would separate them safety wise. I’m able to monitor behaviors before introducing my dogs to other clients’ pets. I’m pursuing to stay home full time and focus on school. With staying home I will have more time and flexibility on my schedule to take care of your babies. I currently live in an apartment complex but can accommodate room. With the experience I have I’m able to tell if your pet has social anxiety or anxious away from home. I also have a crate if needed.

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Rome
“Kara was incredibly kind and sweet with Bo. This was their first time meeting before she sits for him. She was proactive in asking for all of Bo’s care instructions and personality. I could tell that she has tons of experiences with all types of dogs and truly cares about their comfort. If you need a dog walker or sitter, book Kara!”
About: 20 years ago, my first baby was a harlequin Great Dane puppy. After her we had another dane puppy and are now the parents of a spunky tabby cat. I’m a stay at home homeschool mom and I have time during the day when I can take breaks from my kids as they do their work on their own. I have a very flexible schedule. Each pet has its own personality, and it’s important to learn what they like and dislike to make them happy and comfortable. A client’s home is always to be respected and their pet to be treated with the best care and love.
“I’m happy I found Hayley on Rover. I needed a dog walker for my two pups. She has a great work ethic, she’s on time , she communicates well, is very considerate of the owners (mine) wishes and most important my pups love her . Even my shy pup warmed up to Hayley on the second visit., now she is a Hayley fan. So I will definitely be using Hayley’s services again. 😊”
“First time user of a dog sitter and it was a complete success. Samantha asked all the right questions when we met and Charlie and Gizzy were happy campers. I really was impressed the with Rover cards that showed where they had walked and how long. I knew exactly where they were and where they had been. When we returned home we were met at the doors with tails wagging but I had to stop and wonder, were they glad to see us or did they think Sam was back to play. Either way They were happy and that is what matters. We will definitely use the service again and contact Samantha. Thanks Sam!!!”

I’ve just graduated from college with a Bachelor’s degree in Creative Writing, and I’ll be working on my Masters in the same field, virtually in the fall. Though my cat has anxiety and I am unable to leave him alone at night, I am available to care for your babies any time during the day, as I will have a flexible schedule of online classes. When arriving at your home, I would carefully come in the door if you have escape artists, and I would allow them to adjust on their own terms to my company. I would cater to whatever needs they had, whether that meant spending time outside, going on walks, eating meals, taking medication, playing, or simply sitting in their presence.
About: I grew up around dogs. I got my first dog when I was born, and we grew up together. Dog sitting over the years has been a wonderful and enriching experience for me. Spending time with different breeds, each with their own unique personalities, has taught me a lot about canine behavior and care. i’m currently an active student athlete in college. But whenever I’m home, I’m spending my days with my four dogs. If you see my calendar open, please go ahead and book me and please let me to spend my days with your dog animals. I love dogs of all shapes and sizes. We have a big back yard and front yard. many dog crates + Dog bowls. We have a trail to walk the dogs on so they can get exercise.
“Nancy was absolutely amazing!! She worked with us and adjusted for our schedule. She helped check our fence, give our babies treats, and lots of love! She definitely made our trip away so mich easier. We'll be using her again!!”
About: Lover of any fur baby. Big, small, & in between. A fur baby is a family member and should be treated as such. I have always had at least one dog or more for as far back as I can remeber. I have cared for multiple dogs at once from various families. I have done it all walks, drop in visits, & boarding at my home. Dogs of all sizes, temperament, & age. Dogs are such social creatures and need extra love and attention. It's rewarding when someone trusts you with their loved one. I whole heartedly enjoy caring for animals. Sometimes extra patience is needed and that's okay. After years of experience I'm well developed in that area as well. You'll never have to worry about your sweet fur baby when he or she is with me.
About: Hi, I’m Martin! I’ve been a devoted dog parent for over six years, raising and caring for my own four dogs from puppyhood. Living with them every day has taught me patience, consistency, and how to handle different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I understand how important it is for dogs to feel safe and understood. Whether your dog is shy, excitable, or somewhere in between, I adjust to their pace and keep time spent with them calm, positive, and stress‑free. You can always count on me to treat your dog like my own — with kindness, reliability, and plenty of care. I’ll keep you updated with notes and photos so you know your pet is happy and safe with me. I’m available for sitting every day, and I can be flexible with scheduling when given enough notice. I need at least one days notice. That said, I always prioritize your pet’s health, so I pause sitting jobs during severe weather alerts or extreme temperatures. I’ll work with you to reschedule or offer alternatives like quick potty breaks if needed. As a sitter safety is my top priority. For every sitting job I will follow any instructions that you give to the best of my ability, and I will give you regular updates and photographs if desired. Your pets will receive the best care and attention during my time with your pets
About: I love dogs in all shapes, sizes, and breeds and have been working as a dog walker/sitter for over seven years. I love spoiling your sweet babies during our time together. Over the years, I have taken care a large variety of dogs from injured dogs who couldn’t move and needed to remain still to dogs who were full of energy and ready to run! I think communication is very important between a sitter and owner and I always send at least one picture per day and would be happy to send more! :) I'd love to assist you by making your time away from your pets less stressful. Please just let me know how I can help. My husband is also verified through Rover and can assist as a backup if that was ever needed. I am able to move my schedule to best take care of the sweet animals in our care during the break. I will be off of work through the new year. I have a fenced in yard and love to have our visitors with us. We usually ask what your dog is use to and try to accommodate.
About: I’ve grown up with a deep love for caring for animals and knew I wanted to become a veterinarian from the age of 10. I started volunteering in rescues at the age of 12, shadowing in my first veterinary clinic at 15, and working in a vet clinic at the age of 16. I am going into my 4th year of undergraduate studies to earn my Bachelor of Animal Science Degree and am in the process of applying to Vet School. In my time working with animals I have gained experience cats and dogs of all sizes and ages as well as exotic pets like birds and reptiles and large animals like cows and horses. I’m currently working limited hours at my clinic and have almost open availability all summer to take time getting to know your pets and provide the best care! I will take the time to properly introduce myself to your animals and allow them to gain comfort and trust with me so that when I am providing care they feel right at home!
About: I can’t remember a time in my life I haven’t had at least 4 or 5 dogs around me. My family calls me a dog whisperer. Me and dogs just.. understand each other… I think they read the “grandparent” energy I have for them! Every dog loves me because I take care of them and listen to them. I have a beautiful 5 acres and the house for them to stay in and also a 1,200 square foot air conditioned clean garage for them to play in as well as a good yard and a perfect place to walk them if anyone likes their dogs to have extra walks. I’d love to take care of your babies for any reason! I’m pretty flexible so just let me know what you have in mind. I’m available all day every day pick up or drop off. Anytime any day. Dog boarding and grooming and training is what I do and no one does it better! I care for all animals as if they were my own babies. Animals have this pure energy that comes from them and we just understand each other. I love playing with and being around the animals and they love to be around me the same way. I make sure to be careful about leaving dogs unattended I always assure safety first. But a close second to safety is freedom. They love feeling free. And I offer them that safely.
About: I love dogs and always have, no matter the size! I have always had a dog growing up. If I could have a million dogs I would! I love to be very active with dogs. Fetch and walking around the neighborhood are my favorite things to do. I have no breed preferences, I like them all. I like for the owners to tell me more about their dogs. I like to know what the dogs like, how much attention they enjoy, and what their favorite activities are! I am currently work 9am to 5pm Monday through Friday. I am available at all times on the weekend. I also do not mind to visit before work or later in the day/night. I am willing to work around your schedule (potty times, feedings, medication, and daily activities) so your dog(s) can keep their routine! I know how important that is for most pet owners.
About: I’ve lived in a multiple animal household my whole life. Now I have 3 pups of my own and 2 outdoor cats that come first. I work full-time but am available before 8 am, lunch break from 12-1, and after 5 pm through the week and all day during weekends I have a fenced in yard. Dogs are welcome to go in and out as they please, roam common areas, and take naps wherever, whenever.
“Rachael was so amazing to work with! My dog blu absolutely adored her and she was so accommodating to us! I will definitely be reaching out to her next time I need help with walking Blu!”
About: I have always watched out for our family pets and friends that need help with animals, i have taken on care of my sisters lizard and brothers, taken on care of cats and dogs. I enjoy the love you can receive from animals and the love we can give, i would love to watch and take care of your household pet so that you can do what you have to do stress free! Right now i have a completely open availability to watch and take care of animals everyday and every hour, so it fits in as it pleases and as anyone needs! In my home i make sure to research or know an animal before i take care of it and with my clients it would be absolutely no different as i would make sure to do the things they need but also what the client wants as that is how their pet was raised!

“Haley was amazing with our dog, Atlas. This was our pup’s first stay away from home and Haley worked hard to make sure Atlas felt comfortable and loved. She sent us updates daily with pictures and videos which really helped to alleviate our own anxiety about leaving Atlas. Haley even gave Atlas a bath and brushed her out before we picked her up and that is a job in itself! We will most definitely leave our pets with Haley in the future without concern knowing they will be loved and well cared for.”
“One of our best Rover experiences. From the initial meetup through pickup, we felt completely at ease and confident our dog was in great hands. Communication was excellent, and it was clear our dog was well cared for and happy. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend.”
“Highly recommend! Secure fenced property with lots of room for the dogs to run and play. Kept us updated on a regular basis. Our Goldendoodle’s felt right at home I’m not even sure they missed us. Chelsea will definitely be our go to sitter!”
“Cristina welcomed us with open arms and sent us photos every day. We were thrilled to find such a caring and dig-loving person to care for our doggie. Thank you!”
“Sara was wonderful with Milo. Absolutely loved Sara and her family being willing to keep our dog for the weekend. She did everything we asked and also sent lots of pictures and videos so weren’t missing Milo too much. Milo is an old pup and has lots of medications and such and Sara made sure to not miss one pill or day and provided all the love she could to our Milo. We will definitely be booking with Sara from now on. Thank you Sara!! Milo made some new friends :)”
“Lillian and Gwen are phenomenal with our 3 boxers... it was such a relief that they brought them in and treated them as if they were their own. Plenty of pictures and updates whenever we asked. Our 3 can be pretty rowdy sometimes, being young almost 2yos, lol. The yard was well fenced and they had lots of room for them to run and play. We are so grateful to have you both taking care of them, thank you again.”
“We couldn’t have picked a better person to keep Lulu when we went on vacation for a week! The picture updates, the videos, the daily feedback on how she was doing. I would absolutely recommend Jen to anyone! We are so thankful for her and her family! You will not find a better sitter for your dog!”
“Jennifer is absolutely amazing!! She is so accommodating and sends lots of pictures and updates during the stay! We have been using Jennifer for several months now and my dog feels so comfortable! I 100% recommend her!”
About: You can see our reviews in our other profile: https://www.rover.com/sit/janirb12988 🇺🇸 We speak English, Spanish, and Portuguese! 🇲🇽 ¡Hablamos inglés, español y portugués! 🇧🇷 Falamos inglês, espanhol e português! Hi there! 👋 We’re Kaio, Jan and Anik - three lifelong dog lovers who simply enjoy spending our days surrounded by happy pups. Our goal is to give every dog a wonderful experience in a safe, fully supervised environment where they can play, relax, and connect with nature - while giving owners peace of mind through open, caring communication. Among us, we have over 15 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds and personalities. Anik also has a background working in professional dog boarding settings, where she cared for groups of dogs at a time and learned to read their behavior and body language with ease. Our home has a large, securely fenced yard that’s perfect for exploring, running, and sunbathing. Inside, dogs are welcome everywhere - because to us, they’re part of the family. 🐾 We share our space with two sweet resident dogs: a playful 1-year-old Golden Retriever and a calm, gentle 11-year-old Chow Chow. They love meeting new friends and know how to match the energy of any guest - whether it’s joining in a game or simply relaxing side by side. We know how hard it can be to be away from your pup, so we make sure you always feel connected. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and messages - the kind we’d love to get if our dogs were staying somewhere new. At the end of the day, our goal is simple: to make your dog feel safe, loved, and happy - just like they do at home. ❤️ In 2025, we've cared for over 330 dogs, with 114+ repeat clients who keep coming back for our personalized, loving care! We're excited to expand from our half-acre home to a private 6+ acre retreat in Silver Creek, GA—a perfect mix of open cleared fields for romping and wooded trails for adventure. This allows us to build dedicated play yards and special zones just for dogs. What sets us apart: A completely cage-free home where pups roam freely indoors and in secure outdoors—no crates ever! We cap groups at 6 compatible dogs (matched by age, size, temperament, and energy), ensuring tons of individual attention, play, and cuddles. Experienced with all ages—including puppies and senior dogs (meds, mobility help, and cozy comfort). Stays feature daily exercise, enrichment, photo/video updates, and endless love. Your dog will feel right at home here—we can't wait to meet them! I work full-time from home. Pet care is the heart of my daily routine—it's my full-time passion! As a dedicated home-based sitter, I'm here 24/7 with the dogs, structuring our days around their happiness and needs. A typical day starts with morning potty breaks, breakfast, and energetic play sessions in our secure yards. Midday brings walks on trails, enrichment activities (like puzzle toys or training games), and plenty of cuddles. Afternoons are for supervised group play (always small and compatible groups), rest time, dinner, and evening wind-down with more outdoor time or cozy indoor relaxation. To ensure personalized care and a safe, stress-free environment, we keep our groups small. Let’s chat about how we can provide the best care for your pup!
“Cherie is fantastic! I kept having to extend my time needed for a pet sitter as I’m moving and she had no problem still seeing my kitties. Cherie spent time with my cats and went above and beyond to refill their water towers and clean their litter boxes. She ensured my home was safe and secure and I can tell my kitties loved her. Thank you so much Cherie!”
“I knew my puppy was safe and being loved on by Khalia. Loved getting updates from her. Very happy that we found her. We will definitely use her services again. Thank you Khalia!”
“Stephanie and her family did a great job making our dogs feel at home. Our dogs love attention and exercise and they got that in Stephanie’s care. She was willing to send us photos and videos while we were away and my kids loved seeing their beloved pets had great care.”
“I really appreciate BobbieJo's handling of Murphy as she can be somewhat of a diva! BobbieJo is great with her and works with us on last minute bookings! Thanks for watching Murphy we will be back!”
“Alyssa was great with kopa and accommodating all of his needs. He is usually anxious so I was a bit worried but she was patient and loving and he opened up quickly! She kept me updated and sent pictures, would definitely use her again!”
“I knew Chico was well taken care of. She was great at communicating with me to keep me up to date on him. I would definitely recommend Rebekah to anyone that needs someone to care for their pet.”
