“Once again, we had a wonderful trip and peace of mind knowing my Stella girl was taken care of greatly! Linda and her family feel like family now. She is an amazing person.”
“Rebekah is an amazing person—kind, professional, and very great with animals. She kept me updated with photos and my dog was happy and relaxed when I got home. I’ll definitely book her again!”
“Felicia and Bradley are great and always provided us updates throughout the our pups stay! They are reliable, trustworthy, and extremely friendly! This is the second time and will have more! Thank you Felicia and Bradley once again for watching our Rusty!”
“Josh and Kerith took such great care of our fur babies and made sure to send us pictures every day. The looked like they were having the best time while we were on vacation.”
“Debra is fantastic with our baby! He loves staying with her, and we never have to worry when he’s in her care. She treats him like family, and we feel so comfortable knowing he’s with Auntie Debrah. Highly recommend her!”
“Patti was amazing. Patti sent pictures and gave updates. Ken was in great spirits at pickup. Patti’s farm wore my old boy out. He slept the whole day away after he got home. Will definitely recommend and send Ken anytime I go out of town. Thanks Again to you BOTH! ~Eman&Ken”
“Delmina and her family did a great job taking care of my pup during a business trip! She provided regular updates and photos/videos along with lots of play time, walks, and cuddles. Her house has a good setup for pets with a comfortable layout and a huge fenced in backyard. Addie loved running around an chasing toys there. I would definitely book again.”
“They say third times a charm. This is my third time using this app. I had two great experiences, but this with Myeisha was simply impeccable. First off, this was kind of a last-minute reservation. She immediately responded to my inquiry. Also, considering that I know my dog is a little bit on the bougie side, which must be from his past life because his mom is definitely not as such. I asked her if we could meet up to make sure that he is comfortable/she is as well and they are a good match. Not only did she agreed to meet, but she was very punctual on time and it was a instant connection. In addition to this once I confirmed the process with seamless as far as even dropping him off, it was very fast and efficient. Her son is very sweet as he is a dog lover. Also, whenever I got ready to drop him off, it was storming real bad and her husband even came out to assist me with getting my pups items transported into the house. This made me feel almost as family versus a transaction. I received daily videos of him. This definitely put my mind at ease as a video tells more of a story than a picture does. I also had phone issues where I was where the reception was horrible, so I wasn’t responding as quickly as I usually do which I apologized for. I was given the assurance everything was OK and I could tell. Overall, I had a great experience and definitely recommend anybody to send your pup to her. You will not be disappointed. This definitely will not be my last time.”
“This was our first time boarding our dog and Mika exceeded our expectations. Her thoughtful touch of sending pictures provided comfort and reassurance. She is truly amazing, and we will absolutely entrust our fur-baby with her again.”
“Anita and her family were awesome taking care of my dog. They went for a hike/run every day and Eki loved it.He looked so happy when I took him back home; I would definitely book with Anita again♥️.”
“Where do I start with how AMAZING and caring Lania was. There was a hiccup on during Peanut's stay (at no fault of Lania) and she was so understanding and sweet. When you are 14 hours away, you don't want to worry and I'd trust Lania if I was half way around the world. I'm forever grateful that she was so understanding and Peanut was well cared for.”
“Thank you for taking good care of Roger. It was one less thing to worry about on our trip. You are the best dog sitter! Highly recommended. JR taught our Roger a few new things, how to stay until called, how to stay calm on car rides. JR gave our Roger the special attention that she needed. Thank you JR 😀❤️❤️❤️❤️😀❤️❤️❤️❤️”
“Diana did such a wonderful job with our pup. I swear he’s learned some new things. He doesn’t nip as much. He’s waiting before eating. Trainer and sitter in one. Thanks for taking us last minute. Really appreciate you and your family for caring for our baby.”
“Daphne took excellent care of Bella. Her home was very welcoming and well kept. I really appreciated her professionalism and she sent updates/photos everyday. I could tell Bella had a great time as she was very content when I received her. I will be booking again.”

I also have two fur babies to keep your fur baby company but they can always be kept separate if needed.
“Shelby is awesome! She came through without a hitch when we found ourselves in a bind with our 4 cats as we were planning to go on vacation. She was close by and super sweet and even sent pictures. We would love to have her come take care of all our babies in the future.”
“Though I was only gone for 4 days, Katie made it a priority to take photos and videos of my cat, Blue. Kept him happy, medicated, had a dedicated space for him, and established herself as a go-to for me when I head out of town again! 💯🥰”
“Christi did a very good job. I also like the fact that she lives in the area. Niko seemed to really like her and my home was immaculate when I came back Niko was very happy to see me, but it was good to know someone was taking good care of him. I will use Christi again.”

I work from home and can watch them inside while I work. I let them play outside several times a day as wells. Dogs have the ability to stay inside or outside at our home. We have dog beds for them to lie on. We have a big yard and a pool.
“Best EVER! Nikki sends such fun pictures and videos, and is so understanding when our schedule is weird (or last-minute!) We can't even say the names "Tom and Nikki" at home, because our pup will run and wait in the car!”
“Winston had a wonderful day with his new friends James, his wife De and their dogs Charlee and Chloe. James did everything we could ask for and more to make Winston's stay a success. We received lots of photos throughout the day showing all the fun Winston was having. That allowed my wife and I to enjoy our day together knowing Winston was being well cared for. This was the first time we used Rover.com and it was a great experience. We will definitely be booking with James again.”

About: Greetings, I am Obadina and I am a graduate of AK9i as a patrol Detection K9 handler and trainer. I went to Tennessee State for Animal Science Pre Veterinary Medicine where I learned animal husbandry. I used that experience to go on to be a vet tech as well as a pet bather and trainer. I am current K9 detection dog handler and trainer. I have experience with high drive dogs as well as nervous dogs and puppies. I can work with any and every dog, from fearful to aggressive. I also offer DeShed nail care and bathing services. DeShed services is when I remove the shedding undercoat that comes out usually during the change of seasons. It prevents mats and painful tangles which not only can relive pain and odor, but also keeps them cool during the warm summer months. It’s a very good alternative to shaving, which actually makes them hotter because their fur keeps the sun off of them . Animal Husbandry is my profession as a K9 handler. Your dogs will be treated like assets they are. It’s an hourly routine as animals respond to predictability which lowers stress levels which leads to better boarding experiences. Your asset will be housed in a climate controlled dry lockable indoor kennel run facility with a fenced in secured play area that’s easy to clean and plenty of storage for your pets supplies.
About: I've cared for dogs and cats my entire life. I've studied animal cognition, behavior, and training. I've participated in obedience training, agility, and my prior pets were Canine Good Citizen certified. I have worked with both dogs and cats and a variety of breeds including high energy herding breeds. I have a large 1 acre fenced yard that is perfect for running, playing, and getting the ya yas out! I am currently avilable anytime (weekdays, evenings, and weekends) for boarding or doggie daycare at my home or drop-in visits at your home. I have plenty of time to spoil your furbabies! I have a large home and beautiful and secure 1 acre fenced yard in a lovely neighborhood. I currently don't have any pets so those furbabies that don't get a long with others can be the center of attention here!

About: Hello, I’m Jasmine. I’m a middle school teacher who loves dogs just as much as children. Like kids, each dog has its own personality and quirkinesses to him/her and I enjoy getting to know your sweet furry pal. With Georgia having so much scenery and greenery, I would like to find new trails and paths for your dog and I to explore. I have cared for many dogs (all ages) and don’t mind getting my hands a little “dirty”. Whether it’s a walk through the park, an exciting game of fetch or an amazing belly rub your fur-baby will be in great hands. If you have any questions regarding services, please do not hesitate to ask. I look forward to hearing from you and meeting your little (or big) one.
“Linda is a sweetheart and just loves animals. Our girl enjoyed her time in Linda's care, and we are looking forward to the next time our girl will enjoy some time with her!”
About: I have always had a soft spot in my heart for dogs. I have carried this love into adulthood and I enjoy having them in my life. When your four-legged family member is with us they will be treated as one of the family. They will be doted upon and they will be constantly engaged, touched, and talked to. We go for walks in our 1-acre fenced backyard, which facilitates safe rewarding exploration and discovery. We allow the visitors to play and interact with our loving and friendly standard poodles who are great role models to each other and to visiting pooches. Even though your baby will be on their doggie Vaca, We will still use every opportunity to encourage learning, good manners, and good behavior by giving treats and positive reinforcement throughout the day. Stability, engagement, routine, and structure makes a happy dog and we aim to make sure that every four-legged friend who lodges with us, is happy and never wants to leave. Our resident babies eat twice per day and are allowed out for potty breaks three times per day. If it is a rainy day we do indoor activities in our 35x40 temperature controlled dog suite and we even watch a little "Dog TV" We have a great time, rain or shine! Sleeping arrangements will depend on what your baby is comfortable with but we do not allow our pets on the furniture or in our beds (at least when daddy is around). We have kennels but we allow the dogs to sleep anywhere they want to in the dog suite. I am a retired nurse and I am always home so I have plenty of time to dedicate to caring for dogs in my day. We have a huge fenced in backyard where all the dogs enjoy their time outdoors. We also have plenty of equipment in the yard for their enjoyment.
“I appreciated the communication and care given. My dog seemed happy. There's space for them to play indoors and outdoors. I had taken my dog to a brick and mortar a couple of days before and can definitely say I much prefer the in home option.”
About: Your pet's new favorite human (after you, of course I bring veterinary experience and a foster's heart to every walk, drop-in, and boarding stay.

You'll get plenty of updates, photos, and honest communication, so you always know how your pet is doing. With me, your pet gets more than just care-they get attention, patience, and lots of love. Pet care is part of my everyday life. I have worked in a full service veterinary hospital, and in my home, someone is always present—so pets get constant supervision, playtime, and companionship. I keep routines consistent and tailor care to each pet. Your pet won’t just be watched—they’ll be part of our daily life. Safety and trust are my top priorities, especially when pets are staying in my home. I create a calm, structured environment where they can settle in comfortably and feel secure. My home features a fully fenced acre where dogs can safely run, play, sunbathe, or relax in the shade. I’m experienced managing multiple dogs and cats, so I carefully supervise all interactions and match energy levels to keep everyone safe and stress-free. I stick closely to your pet’s routine—including feeding schedules, medications, and preferences—so their stay feels familiar and consistent. With hands-on veterinary experience, I’m also able to recognize subtle changes in behavior or health and respond quickly if needed. Whether your dog loves to play or prefers a quieter space, I adjust to their needs and let them settle in at their own pace. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and honest communication so you can relax knowing your pet is in a safe, attentive, and loving environment.
“Felicia was great with Grayci. She sent tons of photos and videos to reassure me that I made the right decision. Before I knew it, Grayci was handing out kisses like they were candy. So happy my fur baby loved her. Will be using Felicia again soon.”

About: I’ve cared for a wide variety of animals over the years, including dogs and cats.

About: Neighbors, friends and family continue to entrust me with their pets of all ages! My pup has hiked to high heights with me, but I’ve also loved many in their final, precious days.

I have a 40 pound doodle that can keep them company and give them plenty of exercise if needed, but I can also keep them separated if that is preferred.

Otherwise, your loved one will roam free with lots of play time and cuddles. Whatever your fur babe needs, I’m here to serve you!
About: Hey fur parents, I just wanted to come on here and provide a 5 star service to you and your fur baby! Here’s a little bit about me… I’ve pet sat, walked pets, administered medication to many pets that require it on a day to day basis (via orally and injection), and many drop-in visits for a little over 5 years now to highly anxious, aggressive, and elderly animals. I’ve also worked it the veterinary field assisting doctors to provide hands on care to your fur baby for a little over a year now. I’m also in with the AKC. I compete with dogs in conformation, agility, dock diving, scent work, and barn hunt etc. and have been doing that for about a year with all types of breeds and sizes. I have always had a special connection with dogs and all animals for that matter and enjoy every second I can get with any of them. I look forward to doing some pet sitting or walking for you and your fur baby! I work part-time at the veterinary clinic (2 times a week for 5 hours a day) which gives me plenty of time during the week to play with your precious fur baby! I’m also a college student who has recently switched to online classes giving me even more time with your pet! I have a fenced in yard for endless potty breaks and plenty of play area! I have two loving Labrador retriever’s dogs to bring your pet a buddy to play endless tug of war with or if your pet isn’t on the energetic side just a good ole snuggle buddy! 😁
About: I have my own dachshund that I take care of on a daily basis but also have 3 other family dogs tha range from a dachshund to a german shepherd. I’ve always helped taken care of the family dogs growing up. I work 3 times a week and have school but my schedule is very flexible and I can adjust it around based on what I have going on. Any pet in my home that’s not mine would be treated like my own pets. They would be taken care of all the time. The same would apply in someone else’s home. I would follow a schedule feeding and letting the pets out just like I do with my own.

“Delmina and her family did a great job taking care of my pup during a business trip! She provided regular updates and photos/videos along with lots of play time, walks, and cuddles. Her house has a good setup for pets with a comfortable layout and a huge fenced in backyard. Addie loved running around an chasing toys there. I would definitely book again.”
“Anita and her family were awesome taking care of my dog. They went for a hike/run every day and Eki loved it.He looked so happy when I took him back home; I would definitely book with Anita again♥️.”
“Diana did such a wonderful job with our pup. I swear he’s learned some new things. He doesn’t nip as much. He’s waiting before eating. Trainer and sitter in one. Thanks for taking us last minute. Really appreciate you and your family for caring for our baby.”
“Such a wonderful sitter and person. This is the third time we have had her take care of our dog Scout,and it could not have gone better. Multiple pictures and updayes everyday. She is the best!!”
“This review is for the first extended stay after a previous single day stay and it was what I wish all stays could be like. For my two Dachshunds the setup at Nikki and Tom's is perfect. Both Tom and Nikki show them constant love and care - they communicate regularly and often and got some of the funniest videos of all the pups playing together. I can tell based on my dogs energy how they felt after a long stay somewhere away from me, once I picked them up from this stay they were relaxed and full of energy and clearly felt safe and not stressed during their stay. This is a big deal for me, thanks for watching them! 100% will book again.”
“Jill is such a gem. She was so sweet and easy to deal with, and she assured me (multiple times, even through some really difficult life circumstances) that my pup was happy and safe with her. He came home happy with the zoomies, so I think it's safe to say he had a great time! 10/10 do recommend Jill. :)”
“Sydney and her family were amazing. It was our first time leaving our Luna with a sitter while we traveled so we were a little worried but were Immediately put at ease upon meeting them. Very kind and nice people. Lots of property for the dogs to play in and they provided consistent updates. Sydney and her family will definitely be our go-to going forward. I highly recommend them.”
About: I don't have any professional experience, but I've grown up in a family that has housed a lot of dogs and cats since I was born. We've had 4 dogs and 7 cats from my early childhood until today, so while I did obviously have the rest of my family to assist with them, I've still had firsthand experience with a lot of different behaviors and habits of these pets and how certain traits or preferences vary between them. I finished college at UGA recently, so I'm currently at home full-time. Pet care would be pretty easy to fit into my weekly schedule. I always try to make sure I feed my cat her treats once a day around the same time, so consistent feeding and cleaning wouldn't be that much harder with additional pets. I am gone some evenings on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday, but other than that my time is fully open to help your pets stay relaxed, happy, and healthy. My backyard has a fence, but it's currently old and unrepaired, so the gates cannot close properly, so any pets prone to running will be staying inside or on a leash. My house is very small, but my front and backyard are very spacious, ideal for pets that are uncomfortable in small spaces. My cat can be skittish around other animals, so I will need to keep her in a separate space from them, but my family's done that with many of our cats, so it will not be a problem for the client or their pets. My roommate stays inside most of the time, so but he's also very friendly and should not pose any issues for the pets.
