Michele followed all instructions perfectly, provided updates, and sent lots of pictures and videos. We will absolutely be using Michele and Trenton again, and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a sitter.”
“Aunt Stevee is wonderful! I was immediately at easy when I dropped off my baby and saw the tall fence in excellent shape and the additional gate at the front of the house.

“Angie & Esteban are a beautiful family, with a beautiful home and property. Our dog was so stressed being boarded in large facilities that we decided to give Rover a try. We are so happy to have found Angie & Esteban. Our dog has loved staying with them and being part of their family (they treat her like their own!). We have already booked 4x with them in the last month alone! We've done day stays, one week-long stay, and another coming soon! Couldn't be happier with the attention and love they provide for our pup, Holden!”
“Ashli was amazing! She loved our Axle like her own. Our dog does not get along with everyone and when we came to pick up Axle he didn’t want to leave. He loved staying with Ashli. She also sent many pictures which helped comfort us and our anxiety of leaving him. She will be our first choice always. Thanks Ashli for watching Axle and loving him.”
“Bogey had a great stay with Olena & family. We appreciated the sweet picture updates, and he came home happy. We did have a scheduling issue on pickup day, but got it figured out. Thanks!”

“Eddy and Courtney were absolutely wonderful with my dog, Truman! From the start, they made me feel completely at ease knowing he was in good hands. Truman was well taken care of and clearly enjoyed his time, especially playing with their children. It’s such a relief to find someone trustworthy and kind to care him. I’ll definitely be booking with them again!”
“Oh my goodness…. If I could give Auburn a million stars I would. She’s VERY sweet and treated my baby like hers. Cookie was very comfortable and felt right at home. When I picked her up she was very clean and smelled wonderful. I can’t say thank you enough or give Auburn enough stars. I will definitely be booking with her again.”
“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.”
“Ricky loves his home away from home. When my daughter picked him up, he didn't really want to leave. We are thankful he has this great place to stay when he can't travel with us. She takes great care of my geriatric, neurotic, deaf, and partially blind chihuahua. 100% Recommend if you are fortunate enough to get on her schedule!! Xoxo, thanks, Kimberly! With love, Ricky Ricardo's mom.”
“Tanya has a positive vibe. Her place was really clean. She asked all of the appopriate questions showing she was attentive to Tito's need. Would recommend and use again.”
“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!”
“Dianna was amazing with Finn. She pampered him and made him feel welcome in her home. She was very patient on his walks as he likes to sniff more than walk. She also sent me a video of how Finn was doing everyday. Thanks Diana!!”

We truly appreciate the quick availability and the solid care provided during this emergency!”

From the very beginning, she was an exceptional communicator, keeping us informed before and during her time with our beloved furry companions. Her attentiveness and warm demeanor instantly put me at ease, allowing me to confidently entrust my dogs to her care. Nicole's genuine dedication and love for animals were evident in the way she interacted with our dogs. She went above and beyond to ensure their happiness and well-being throughout her time with them. Witnessing the joy she brought to our four-legged friends was truly heartwarming. I cannot emphasize enough how grateful I am to Nicole for providing such a phenomenal dog-sitting experience. Her professionalism, reliability, and genuine affection for animals shine through in every interaction. I highly recommend Nicole to anyone in need of a compassionate and trustworthy dog sitter.

About: I have had cats since I was little and always have loved them. I am willing to clean litter boxes, food, and puke. My best skill is my communication with my clients. I always start with a meeting to talk with you and meet your cat. I will give daily reports and pictures too.
About: I’ve been caring for animals for 20 years, starting with dogs and cats growing up, and later managing a household of up to 5 dogs and 2-3 cats at a time as an adult. In college I even helped bottle-raise baby animals alongside a close friend who’s now a veterinarian. I have hands-on experience with senior pet care, including managing diabetes with insulin injections for both a dog and a cat, and administering subcutaneous fluids to an elderly cat. I’m comfortable with pets who need extra medical attention or a gentler pace, as well as high-energy pups who need a good long walk. As a homeowner and mom of three, I understand how much trust it takes to hand over your keys and your pet. I treat every home and every animal like it’s my own. My schedule varies day to day, so before I confirm any booking, I check my calendar to make sure I can fully commit — once I say yes, you can count on me. I’m generally available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting throughout the week, and I’ll always give you a clear answer up front about what I can take on. When I care for pets in your home, I follow your instructions closely: feeding schedules, medication routines, favorite toys, and any house rules you have. I’m experienced with medication administration, including insulin injections and subcutaneous fluids for pets with medical needs, so I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions for seniors or pets with health conditions. I treat your home with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. As a homeowner with three kids myself, I understand the trust it takes to let someone into your space, and I take that seriously
“We are so thankful to Mackenzie for the wonderful care she gave Pebbles and Bear! It was such a relief knowing they were in good hands while we were away. We were especially happy to hear that they finally got more comfortable and used to Mackenzie. We also really appreciated getting to know Mackenzie along the way. We got back home yesterday, and both Pebbles and Bear were happy to see us—which made us happy too! I always hate having to leave them for that long, so knowing they were well cared for made the trip much easier. Thank you again, Mackenzie, for taking such great care of our fur babies. We truly appreciate you and look forward to staying in touch!”

“Karen was able to help us out at the last minute and was such a huge help! She sent updates throughout the day on how Winnie was doing and her antics. She was flexible with our pickup and Winnie came home exhausted from a full day of play!”
“Edward was amazing with my rescue dog, Dunkin. He took care of him the entire day, sent pictures and video updates through the app, and made me feel like my pup was in really good hands. Edward allowed Dunkin to roam freely around the house, didn't mind him getting on furniture, and made the whole experience really easy and stress free. He provides a laid back environment that really allows the dog and the owner to relax and not worry about a thing. I would 100% recommend him and I will definitely be using Edward again!”
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.
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’m a dog owner myself, and I have always had dogs since a little kid, some that I trained as puppies. I also would help neighbors with their dogs, such as walking and watching them when needed. I am home most of time while my kids are in school and what better way to occupy my time than doing something I love and spending time with dogs. I will first make sure the pet feels safe with me. I will engage with them by playing with their favorite toys or going outside to explore.
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’ve been dog sitting since I was in high school! I had three dogs growing up, always had roommates with dogs and I just watched a friends dog for over a year while he looked for a place that allowed dogs. We have a large fenced yard with LOTS of room to run around and play. I’m currently a stay at home mom so I’m home to let dogs out as needed and allow them to not be crated all day! I’m home with my baby 6 days a week so I’m able to let your dog out as often as they need and we can go on walks as often as needed as well. I have a fenced in yard and a small relaxed dog here that loves to snuggle. We allow the dogs on our couch and when they aren’t resting we have an expansive, grass filled yard for the dogs to play. Dogs can either sleep in a crate or on a dog bed in our room with us. We also have a sunny back deck that our dog loves to sun bathe on!

“Emily is amazing with our puppy!! She has walked him multiple times now and is very reliable and spends such quality time with him! It is hard being away at work but I feel so much better knowing he has such a great time walking and playing with her. She sends lots of pictures of him having fun and gives us updates on how the day went :)”
“I was a little nervous about booking Xander’s first walk through Rover, but Madison really put my mind at ease. She was communicative, responsive, and thoughtful. She offered to bring Xander a treat for the first introduction and even sent me a picture of what she gave him. Madison made the entire process very smooth, and she demonstrated her experience with larger dogs very well. Xander had chewed up some playing cards and strung them across the floor, and she went as far as picking up after him and setting them in a neat pile out of reach! I will absolutely be requesting her services again.”
“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.”
“Gina has been absolutely wonderful. She is reliable, kind, and truly cares about the dogs she walks. She always sends updates and makes sure the dogs get great, thorough walks. Alaska was always happy and well taken care of, and I felt completely at ease knowing she was in great hands. Highly recommend her.”

I also provide updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are in good hands.

If there is training you would like to continue working on with your pups, I will do my absolute best to help in any way I can. Ps. I have a beautiful 10-year-old husky and pointer mix named Skye, she is who you see in the photo! I am a college student with a part-time remote job, so my schedule is very open.

About: Woodstock, Roswell, and Alpharetta Hi! I'm Lily, a graduate student finishing up my master's this fall. I grew up with a family cat, and 4 years ago I rescued my own cat as an abandoned kitten. She has since been through an international move with me, so I know exactly how precious pets are and what it takes to keep them calm and comfortable through big changes. I also have several years of experience dog sitting for a variety of breeds and temperaments, and I'm happy to do overnights in your home, drop-ins, and walks! I am currently finishing my master's thesis and job hunting, both of which I do from home, so my schedule is flexible and pet care fits in easily throughout the day. I am able to do daytime drop-ins, walks, overnights, and last-minute visits without much notice. Since I'm not ties to a 9-5, I can be flexible to your pet's routine rather than the other way around! Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priority. Having a pet of my own who's spent time with sitters before, I know firsthand the anxiety that can come with someone new watching your pet, but I also know what helps ease that anxiety. I'm very instructions-oriented and happy to follow any guidance you give, with plenty of communication and photos along the way, so your pet gets the best possible care and you get peace of mind.
About: Hello! My name is Kenzie, and I’m a zookeeper with a lifelong passion for animals of all kinds!

I have extensive experience with daily care and feeding, administering medications, following medical procedures, and safely relocating animals when needed. I love knowing all the little quirks that make your baby unique, what kind of scratches they like, which toys are their favorite etc. The more I know about their needs the more fun we can have together!

I’m especially passionate about choice-based and cooperative care, and I bring that same philosophy to every animal I work with. I’m very comfortable caring for nervous or shy animals and will always respect their boundaries and give them space when they need it. On the other hand, I’m a big animal lover, so if your critter is looking for some extra cuddles and affection, I’m always happy to oblige!

“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.”
“Angie & Esteban are a beautiful family, with a beautiful home and property. Our dog was so stressed being boarded in large facilities that we decided to give Rover a try. We are so happy to have found Angie & Esteban. Our dog has loved staying with them and being part of their family (they treat her like their own!). We have already booked 4x with them in the last month alone! We've done day stays, one week-long stay, and another coming soon! Couldn't be happier with the attention and love they provide for our pup, Holden!”
“As always, Aliya, her father and son took the best care of Duke. Treated him like one of their family. They are the ones that we depend on and trust to care for our precious Duke. Til our next drop off visit in a couple of months. :)”
“Another great stay for Rudy with Sarah. He had a good time and we got a lot of daily updates and photos. Thank you Sarah for taking such great care of Rudy, and also being flexible during pickup to accommodate a last minute snafu in our schedule.”
“Kelly was amazing! She took such wonderful care of Harley! She got him to eat which he barely does when he’s not with me. Great job! Kept sending photos and kept us up to date. I will definitely use her again! Thank you so much Kelly!!”
“Alicia is wonderful! She has already stayed with our Freyja twice and it was great! She always sent us photos, took Freyja for walks in places she loves and when we pick her up, she is always happy. In addition to being super understanding in allowing us to pick up Feyja very late at night because our flight was delayed and we faced traffic on the way back. I recommend your work, which for me is 10 stars!!!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️See you soon!”
“This was our first time with Rover and Katherine exceeded all expectations! We are very pleased and satisfied with our experience. Katherine and her family were extremely welcoming and accommodating and helped put our minds at ease knowing our Ozzy had all of his needs met and that he felt like he was at home while we were away. We received text and photo updates each day we were gone. This was so nice! Thank you thank you thank you! Highly recommend!”
“Eddy and Courtney were absolutely wonderful with my dog, Truman! From the start, they made me feel completely at ease knowing he was in good hands. Truman was well taken care of and clearly enjoyed his time, especially playing with their children. It’s such a relief to find someone trustworthy and kind to care him. I’ll definitely be booking with them again!”
“Oh my goodness…. If I could give Auburn a million stars I would. She’s VERY sweet and treated my baby like hers. Cookie was very comfortable and felt right at home. When I picked her up she was very clean and smelled wonderful. I can’t say thank you enough or give Auburn enough stars. I will definitely be booking with her again.”
“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.”
“We booked an overnight get away and needed a sitter last minute. Anita was quick to respond, very personable, clearly had a great affection for dogs. We quickly becamw comfortable with leaving our babies. She kept us in the loop with photos and videos. We will definitely choose Anita moving forward. We now consider her home our pets second family.”
“Coco left a very happy dog! I plan to utilize this family regularly. So happy my dog had kids and another dog to play with— not to mention a yard to play in. Thank you so much for the excellent service!”
“Dianna was amazing with Finn. She pampered him and made him feel welcome in her home. She was very patient on his walks as he likes to sniff more than walk. She also sent me a video of how Finn was doing everyday. Thanks Diana!!”
“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!”
“They were amazing host for my pet. We were kept informed of how our pet is doing in detail with pictures. It was so comforting to read those messages!!! I highly recommend dog boarding with Kaitlyn and James.”
“It was nice to leave and feel comfortable with who we left our baby girl with. I received pictures during her stay and she appeared to be smiling in each one of them. She came home a happy, exhausted pup.”
