âChayna was amazing with Kane and very helpful when I had to modify my booking. Kane had such a great time the week he spent with her and her family. I would highly recommend Chayna as a place to keep your pet if you have to leave them with someone for any reason. I will definitely use her services again in the future.â

âBefore we boarded our puppy, we did a meet and greet to make sure everyone got along. Cassandra did a great job introducing her dogs to ours. They played in the big fenced yard and our puppy was comfortable being in their home. She was quick to respond and the drop off/pick up process was easy. Thanks for taking care of Scout!â


âOur dogs just had another great stay with Donna (& Jon). This was just one of a number of bookings, 2 of them lasted for the entire week, over the last few months. All stays have been exceptional. Donna is consistent in the excellent quality of care, her communication via text, Rover messages and by sending pictures during every stay. Our dogs appear truly happy every time we drop them off. They know that they'll be loved and sufficiently spoiled at their 'home away from home'. We're pleased to have found Donna and look forward to continuing to be a very satified repeat customer.â
âKristi did great with my dog and kept me updated on how he was doing throughout his stay. He had some separation anxiety and she was very patient and went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable.â

âGreat experience overall. They were very accommodating to my schedule, which I really appreciated. Responded to my messages quickly and they made the whole process convenient and stress-free. Highly recommend!â

âSara is an amazing dog sitter! She is very knowledgeable about pets and takes care to keep them happy. My little Senior Chihuahua felt right at home. She takes great photos and provided a twice a day detailed report on what went on with him. I will definitely be keeping her for next time.â

âThis was our first time boarding with Sean, but he was amazing! Our fur babies were treated like they were his own, and we got daily pictures to see how they were doing. This was great as our pups usually travel with us. I would most certainly reach out to him the next time we need to board again! Thank you for everything!â


âJill and her kids were great! They took wonderful care of Lucy and shared pics and videos during our trip. I was happy that my dog had time with other dogs to help get socialized. Would love to use Jill's services againâ

âLuciana was incredible!! She went way above and beyond to take care of my cat Camille for an extended stay while I was overseas. Communication was excellent, and Camille was clearly very well taken care of.â


âSuper grateful to have found Alexandra while we were passing through Taccoa! She was very flexible with our schedule and patient with Canela! We would book with her again!â

âWe just returned from a week's vacation in Florida and Stacy cared for our two shih tzus for the week. I can't say enough good things about our experience with her! This was our first time using rover.com so we weren't sure quite what to expect, and we were naturally a bit anxious leaving our fur babies. Stacy put us at ease right away. We had a meet and greet so the dogs could warm up to their new environment and meet Stacy's pets as well. When we dropped them off, I felt comfortable knowing they were in good hands. Stacy administered meds to one of our dogs daily, and provided us with pictures, videos, and email updates several times a day. She even gave them baths! More than anything, we felt like she genuinely loved and cared for our dogs the same way we would, and that is very hard to find. We will definitely use her services again in the future. We couldn't have asked for a better experience!â
âour second time: i just love how they treat him like their family dog. just how we do it at our home. heâs always so much more well behaved then when we left him. thanks diana and family. love yall dog sitting for us.â

âNicole was fantastic! Amelia loved her stay with you! Thank you for taking good care of my fur baby!! Nicole was very communicative, sent lots of good cute pictures! Thank you, I appreciate you!â

âCassandra was absolutely awesome!! My Gracie LOVED being with her and the huge fences in yard to run around. Cassandra shared daily pics and updates with me which was greatly appreciated. I would highly recommend her to care for your pet!!â

âBailey was the first sitter I booked on Rover and I am SO grateful for her kindness and flexibility! She made me feel safe and comfortable to trust her with my fur baby. She sent updates and pictures of my girl daily and responded quickly to my messages. I am so sad her availability is limited, but I would 100% recommend Bailey to everyone! Thank you so much!â

âTim has stayed with Caylei multiple times, and every time is great. He cries when we leave. Caylei was very flexible with me this time, as the weather was bad and I was nervous to drive on the day I was supposed to pick him up, so she let me add an additional day at the last minute. I really appreciate the flexibility. And as always, I appreciate that she loves my boy!â

About: I had pets as a child. As an adult we became a dog family 10 years ago. Heâs stubborn and way smarter than I am. Iâve learned so much loving on our Smitty. Iâm patient and love to see their personalities shine. I work from home so I have a pretty flexible schedule. I would be happy to discuss your personal needs and work that into my day. I walk my dogs on leash on our property. For you Iâd do what your pet is accustomed to. Iâm very flexible and able to work with what works for you best.
âWonderful pet sitter! Really helped us out last minute when our regular sitter canceled. Gave daily updates and put our minds at ease. Went above and beyond to make sure our kitties were well taken care of. Will definitely use her services again!â

âJesse does a great job of keeping the animals on schedule and I was so relaxed all day knowing he was coming by to check on them twice while we were at a ball game in Athens.â

About: I grew up in agriculture caring for all sorts of animals. From raising my own show hogs to rasing 20+ rabbits, to my own dogs, and working in Veterinary hospitals, commercial swine and poultry industries, I have seen it all! I have a two German Shorthaired Pointers, one that is 3 years old and another that is 2 years old. My husband and I upland hunt with them all over the state of Georgia and beyond. I also have a 16 year old Beagle/Min Pin mix who is my heart and soul and is a couch potato. We recently had our other dog who was a Red Heeler/Australian Shepherd who sadly passed away from cancer. I am capable of caring for pets of all ages and energy levels!! I do have a full time job in the Poultry Industry in Gainesville so I will be gone during 6am-2:30pm. Most families I pet sit for have no issues with that, but others require someone to be there all day. If you have any scheduling questions, please feel free to reach out to me. From my experience from working at a local animal hospital in Gainesville, GA along with working in the Poultry and Swine industries, I have ample amounts of training in animal welfare. Whether you have a household pet or farm animals, I am confident that I am capable for caring for any kind of pet! With my 3 dogs that very from young to old, lazy to high drive and energetic, I create a safe environment in my home so my dogs are safe and free of unnecessary harm. With our hunting dogs, my husband and I train them year round and exercise them at our family farm to give them the mental stimulation they need so they don't ruin our house! During bad weather, I usually prepare lick mats, raw-hide free bones, or some kind of enrichment treat.

âAlexis was awesome! One of my pups is a diabetic and it was a huge relief to find someone with the knowledge and ability to care for him and give him his shot of insulin. Highly recommend Alexis!â


âBeverly was amazing with our two cats. She gave updates and photos each visit. It was nice to come home to the fur babies being well fed, clean, and happy. Would definitely recommend her for any of your pet needs!â


âWe are so pleased to have met Allyson! She and our pup got along beautifully. Allyson is precious, smart and was super with our boxer. We feel so fortunate (and relieved) to have found her!â

âKristi was great! She communicated with me, sent pictures and seem to positively relate to our babies. We have old cats and one requires medication twice a day. Some sitters we have had were not always able to give her the medication. Betsy let her do it without too much trouble.â

âTyler did a wonderful job caring for our kitties. I had set up an automatic feeder to give the cats dry food (Tyler was giving them wet food at his visits) and the cats toppled it and knocked it over. The next day, they clawed into the sealed bag of food Iâd left out. Both times, Tyler graciously cleaned it up and helped me devise a way to keep the cats from doing it again. He checked in daily and sent occasional photos and videos, which my kids loved. I will definitely use him again!â


âSavanna is a wonderful house sitter! She took great care of my two picky cats that demanded lots of attention and effort to make them eat while I was on a business trip. My senior cat has to be fed wet food several times a day and has digestive issues, so I booked her for house sitting instead of drop-in visits. I left long instruction notes for when & how to feed him, and she kept every little detail I asked for and was always on time for the feeding schedule. She also sent me lots of pics and frequent updates. My apt was very clean and intact when I got back from the trip. Definitely recommend Savannah for any pet sitting & house sitting needs!â
âMallory was very friendly, and my cats loved her. She took great care of our house while we were gone and brought in packages that arrived. She sent photos and videos of the kitties, and she was easy to communicate with. I will definitely ask her to petsit again.â


About: I fully respect that cats operate on their own terms, and honestly⌠I love that for them. đ Whether your cat is a social butterfly, a professional napper, or prefers to observe me from the top of the refrigerator for three days before deciding Iâm acceptable, Iâll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Fresh food, clean litter, playtime, cuddles (if they approve), and plenty of patience are all part of the package.
About: Iâm a fun loving dog sitter. I love playing with dogs, walking with them, and giving them tummy rubs. Being lazy is another quality Iâm good at when me and the dog(s) donât have anything better to do. I really do love animals. Their like fluffy teddy bears. Dogs deserve all the love and attention in the world. Weather they act crazy or not If the dog misbehaved then I would lightly pop it on the nose and say no but if the dog was nice then Iâd give it tummy rubs

About: Animals have always had my heart. I truly believe every pet deserves to be spoiled with love, kindness, and the best care possible. ImI'll treat your furry family member like they're my own and make sure they get plenty of attention and affection. Almost all of my friends have multiple cats and I have watched them many times. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel comfortable from the moment we meet.

About: Cats have always been my favorite animal. I have to kittyâs of my own. I know everything that cats can have and canât have. Iâve worked in a nursing home and it made me realize cats are a lot like older people, delicate and stubborn. I have years of experience with cats so I can provide just what they need. From playing, feeding, giving medications, cleaning, and maybe even going on walks.

âChayna is amazing. Her dogs and mine had a great time together. Chayna has a beautiful property for the dogs to have fun. I highly recommend!!! My Bo was ready for a nap after his stay :)...â

âJoanna & Sebastian were absolutely wonderful! They were very quick to respond to our last minute request and were super patient with our nervous dog. They sent us updates and photos so I felt very comfortable! I would definitely book with them again in the future!â

About: I have years of hands-on pet care experience, and Iâve had dogs in my home for most of my life. What sets me apart is my calm, reliable approach and genuine love for caring for pets of all ages. Iâm comfortable with puppies, adult dogs, and seniors, and I understand how to meet each stageâs needsâfrom basic training and routine structure to gentle care and patience with older pets. Iâm committed to keeping pets safe, comfortable, and happy, and I treat every animal like my own. Clear communication, dependability, and attention to detail are always my priorities. Pet care is a regular part of my life and something I prioritize every day. I schedule my time around feeding, play, and attention for pets, making sure they get consistent care and companionship. On a weekly basis, I maintain clean living spaces, rotate toys, and spend quality time with each pet to keep them happy and engaged. Caring for animals is not just a taskâitâs a routine I enjoy and take seriously, ensuring pets feel safe, loved, and well-cared-for at all times. I provide a safe, clean, and loving home environment for pets, with regular feeding, playtime, social interaction, and cozy spaces for rest and ultimate comfort.
âAnnette was great! Chevie, whoâs normally wary of other dogs, immediately started playing with her dog and settled in well! I appreciated all the outdoor/dog park time Chevie got. She was tired and relaxed when we got home!â


About: As a lifelong dog lover and current online college student, I offer a highly flexible, work-from-home schedule that ensures your pet will have constant supervision, regular bathroom breaks, and company throughout the day. What sets me apart is my ability to adapt to your pet's specific stage of life; I am fully equipped to handle the high-energy demands, potty training, and crate routines of young puppies, but I'm equally patient and observant when it comes to the quiet environments and precise medication schedules required by senior dogs. Ultimately, I focus on routine consistency, molding my daily schedule entirely around your dogâs normal habits to keep their anxiety low and make them feel right at home. I work from home and stay around town, so caring for your fur-babies is no trouble at all! If they do well with car rides, I am more than happy to bring them along to run any errands or to the ball fields! I have a large yard, plenty of room inside, two sweet and playful dogs to keep them company, and a 6 year old boy who loves puppy cuddles and all the play time he can get!
About: Iâve loved animals ever since i was young. From giving puppies baths to taking them on walks, animals have always been a huge part of my life.. and i would love to take care of yours<3 Iâm currently at home all week⌠i have extra time on my hands and would love to spend it with animals and that could be your dog or cat! I have a small fenced backyard and a quiet community that is great for walks:) we also have a screened in back porch that our cat loves to lounge in..

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.
About: I am an experienced pet sitter and have been an animal advocate for over forty years. As a vet tech, I can also care for pets with special needs. I am retired and can devote my time and attention to caring for peopleâs pets. Our own pets are very welcoming to other dogs and cats. We have a large fenced-in backyard and a home with many dog beds and crates are available if thatâs preferred. All pets are treated as members of our family. I am also available to visit pets in their own home, once or twice a day as needed.

About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for dogs and lifelong experience caring for them. Iâve been watching and caring for dogs since I was 10, and I treat every dog with patience, kindness, and the same love and attention Iâd give my own. I am a nurse but only work 3 days a week, and Iâd love to help out on my days off! I have weekends off :) I provide safe and attentive care for walks and drop-in visits. I always follow your dogâs routine, ensure secure entry and exits, and keep them on a safe leash at all times. I pay close attention to their behavior, energy levels, and comfort, making sure they feel happy, calm, and well cared for while youâre away. Your dogâs safety and peace of mind are my top priorities
âAbsolutely amazing! My dog is so clingy with me, but she was so excited to see Angela on the second day ?. My giant mastiff can be a handful, but Angela is a confident and knowledgeable 'dog person' so Penny's exuberance didn't phase her. I loved that Angela took Penny to a dog park each day too. I also REALLY appreciated the clear and consistent communication; Angela was quick to respond to any texts I sent and gave me updates (with the most adorable pics!) throughout the day. My dog was healthy, happy, and tired each time I picked her up from Angela-- who could ask for more?â


About: I have years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. My background includes EDD K9 handling, obedience training, working bird hunting dogs, and caring for high-energy working breeds that require structure and exercise. I live on 14.9 acres in Madison County, Georgia, providing dogs with a safe, spacious environment to play, explore, and relax. I understand canine behavior, body language, and the importance of maintaining routines that help dogs feel comfortable while their owners are away. Whether your dog needs active playtime, supervised socialization, or a calm place to stay, I provide dependable, attentive care as if they were my own. Pet care is my full-time profession, not a side job. My daily routine is built around the dogs in my care, ensuring they receive attention, exercise, potty breaks, feeding, and supervision throughout the day. Living on 14.9 acres in Madison County, I provide a safe, spacious environment where dogs can enjoy structured outdoor time and plenty of individual attention. Whether your dog is energetic and loves to play or prefers a calm, relaxed atmosphere, I tailor their care to their specific needs. My goal is to give owners peace of mind knowing their dogs are being cared for by someone whose primary focus is their safety, comfort, and happiness. Dogs enjoy a structured daily schedule that includes supervised outdoor exercise, potty breaks, feeding according to their ownerâs instructions, enrichment activities, and plenty of one-on-one interaction. Each dog has access to a clean, secure run for rest and quiet time, while also receiving multiple opportunities throughout the day for exercise and socialization when appropriate. Because we accept only a limited number of dogs, we can closely monitor behavior, appetite, activity levels, and overall well-being. This personalized approach helps reduce stress, creates a calmer environment, and allows us to provide the level of care and attention that dogs deserve while their families are away. Our goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and structured home-away-from-home experience where every dog is treated like a valued guest rather than just another boarding reservation.
About: Registered Veterinary Technician who works emergency medicine on the weekends looking for extra work through the week. I canât stay at your house overnight, but your pet can come to mine. I can also do drop ins pretty regularly. I graduated college with a degree in Veterinary technology and passed my state boards. I work at an emergency clinic in Atlanta on the weekends and right now Iâm free through the week. I can try my best to work out whatever you need help with. Iâm skilled at giving medications and anything basic your pet may need in home, as well as lifesaving care due to any emergency. I can keep non child friendly cats in a different area, but dogs must be child friendly. I do have cats & ferrets, but they can be kept separately if your animals are not cat & small rodent friendly. I have 2 dogs as well. All of my animals are pet friendly with everything as many animals have come through my care fostering. I'm skilled in exotic pet care as well if necessary. I currently only work weekend overnights in the ER. So, I am home all week caring for my fur babies. As well as yours hopefully! I strive to care for anyone's else's pets exactly as I would my own. When they are with me, they are my babies too. I bring my ER compassion with me when I pet sit, in the ER the pets are without their owners & they are scared on top of being hurt. While my pet sits may not be hurt, I'm aware they could be nervous & unfamiliar. I try to treat them with the upmost compassion & kindness.

About: I have worked at vet clinics and at barns so I have diverse experiences to handle animals. I also have had pets my whole life. I recently moved to athens to start vet school. Since it is the summer I am a free book and have time all day to watch your baby. I have a townhouse with a dog park to take your baby out. I also have a spacious living room where we can play and cuddle. In your home, I will respect your schedule and follow it to a tee.

About: A Convenient, Fun Home Away From Home đž . I have a pet-friendly home with a large, fenced-in yard, located just one mile from Downtown Athens and UGA. Itâs a great setup for friendly, social dogs who enjoy having room to play, relax, and get some exercise during the day. I work from home, so Iâm able to provide a comfortable home environment for dogs throughout the day. . And when your dog is ready for a little adventure, Iâm happy to take them out for walks or outings at places like Dudley Park or Sandy Creek Park. đđł . Why this works well đĄ Large fenced yard â Plenty of room for your pup to play, explore, and burn off some energy. đť I work from home â Your dog gets to spend the day in a home environment rather than a traditional kennel or facility. đł Adventure time â Dogs who enjoy getting out and about can join me for walks and adventures at Dudley Park, Sandy Creek Park, and other nearby spots. đ Super convenient location â Just one mile from Downtown Athens and UGA. Drop your pup off on your way to work, school, or downtown and pick them up whenever it works for you. đ Flexible drop-off & pickup â I work from home, but if I happen to miss you, I have keyless entry makes it easy to come and go, even if Iâm briefly away from home. â° Daytime care â My preference is daytime stays between 7 AM and 9 PM, making this especially convenient for students and anyone working near downtown. Overnight stays can also be accommodated when needed. . A few important requirements đś .

About: We don't have children of our own so our dogs are our family and we'll treat your dogs like family. My husband and I have taken care of dogs since we were little. We love going for walks and just spending time with them. Your dogs will receive lots of love and attention while your gone. I'm currently working from home full-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups. When my husband gets home from working the day shift, we're always in the back yard doing activities with the dogs. We have a huge fenced in back yard and three wonderful fur babies to keep your dog company. We don't let the dogs outside in the yard unsupervised. We can also crate your dog if it's needed.

About: For as long as I remember, animals have been the only constant defining piece of the puzzle that is my life. I have personally raised dogs, cats, horses, rabbits, birds, hamsters, goats and a lamb! Training, raising and saving animals gives me hope and a purpose. My experience goes all the way back to my first dog at the age of 9, who passed at the old age of 16.5years old in 2025. I have ridden and worked with horses for many years, as well as started my dog training journey in my later teens, turning it into my profession ever since. My goal is to provide top quality care to pet owners, as I understand the trust it takes to leave your pets behind and do not take that responsibility lightly. I know how I want my animals treated should I ever have to leave them, so I strive to give that same (picky) care to other owners. I have boarded & trained dogs for over 4 years and plan to open a boarding facility for both canines & equines in the future. I am a stay at home mom so I will usually be home more than 90% of the time to spend with your pet, with three dogs of my own, one cat and our farm animals. Both my inside dogs are crate trained, house trained, and one of them has his Canine Good Citizen Cert. the other is a young female working on her mannerisms but very friendly. Our third pup is our outside guardian livestock dog. We have four beautiful acres for lots of play and exercise. Most of the acreage is fenced, and our house is gated off. I am able to crate dogs if necessary, but am home most of the time so crating usually only at night time if applicable. They will be able to take as many potty breaks needed, get lots of play time, of course attention, and have access to water all day long (unless otherwise specified). Note* If they are not good with cats, that is not a problem as mine stays separated from any dogs beside my own.

About: I have experience taking care of both small and large dogs with a wide variety of personalities. Iâve cared for dogs who deal with anxiety as well as some of the most sociable pups. Young and old, I love all dogs the same! I am currently working part time as a substitute teacher so Iâll have plenty of time to care for your dog. Iâm fairly flexible to meet the needs of your pup! I try and follow the normal schedule and routine you have for your pet. I have no problem crating your dog if needed but can let them free roam if thatâs normal for them as well. I also try and keep them on the same feeding time. If your dog is used to walks in the morning or evening I try to accommodate that as well as the length of the walk.

About: Iâve been caring for pets for about 5 years now, from dogs to frogs! Some of my own and some from others I give each animal the love and care that they deserve. I love being outdoors in any climate whether that be hiking, jogging, or simply sitting in a field. Iâd be more than happy to burn some energy with your fur baby! I work part time during the night which leaves lots of free time during the mornings to walk, feed, and check in on your pets. I occasionally have classes during the week, so Iâll already be up bright and early! I will provide your pets with loving attention, frequent walks and bathroom breaks, even playtime. I am sure to create a safe environment for your fur babies, if that means a mini play date or introduction session before sitting I am down for it all. I will stay loyal to the given instructions with proper feeding times and administer medication if/when needed.
About: Iâve grown up with animals! Iâve always had a cat to take care of! I got my first kitten when I was around 5 years old! ever since Iâve had an amazing connection with all animals but especially cats more than anything. I have watched over dogs many of times. I can handle a big dog but I am mainly used to small/medium dogs ahah:) Iâve currently have dealt with puppies and them being sick! I have learned many new things along the way! I am so excited to learn more things about animals as I watch over them. I have only ever pet sit once through rover, but I can assure you I have plenty of experience and knowledge when it comes to animals! Your dog/cat would be so lucky to have me watch over them:) I currently have no full time job! which gives me more time for your fur babies.. I am currently in school working on getting closer to being a veterinarian assistant:)) my schooling is completely online though so I can bring it wherever I go. I am majoring in Animal Science! I would care for your fur babies in your home the same as if you were there. provided you leave me with a schedule of your pets day!

âChayna was amazing with Kane and very helpful when I had to modify my booking. Kane had such a great time the week he spent with her and her family. I would highly recommend Chayna as a place to keep your pet if you have to leave them with someone for any reason. I will definitely use her services again in the future.â

âBefore we boarded our puppy, we did a meet and greet to make sure everyone got along. Cassandra did a great job introducing her dogs to ours. They played in the big fenced yard and our puppy was comfortable being in their home. She was quick to respond and the drop off/pick up process was easy. Thanks for taking care of Scout!â

âKristi did great with my dog and kept me updated on how he was doing throughout his stay. He had some separation anxiety and she was very patient and went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable.â

âThis was our first time boarding with Sean, but he was amazing! Our fur babies were treated like they were his own, and we got daily pictures to see how they were doing. This was great as our pups usually travel with us. I would most certainly reach out to him the next time we need to board again! Thank you for everything!â


âJill and her kids were great! They took wonderful care of Lucy and shared pics and videos during our trip. I was happy that my dog had time with other dogs to help get socialized. Would love to use Jill's services againâ

Caylei was very flexible with me this time, as the weather was bad and I was nervous to drive on the day I was supposed to pick him up, so she let me add an additional day at the last minute. I really appreciate the flexibility. And as always, I appreciate that she loves my boy!â
