About: I used to operate a rescue and shelter outside of Atlanta. I have experience with all types of animals in all types of conditions. Familiar with special needs, dietary restrictions, after surgery care, blind animals and more. I have always been an animal lover and I currently have 3 dogs I would like to make pet care my full time job. I currently do some side work in the construction field but would really enjoy spending all my time with the pets if possible I have a fenced in yard and two fully separated areas of the house and garage that open into the yard that can accommodate any animals who aren’t comfortable around other pets. I let my dogs on the couches and beds and they have free reign of the house
“Andrea took such great care of my 2 cats! She provided detailed descriptions of how they were doing along with pictures. She even went above and beyond and swept/cleaned my cat’s food bowls and water mats. I had peace of mind when I was away and couldn’t recommend her more!”
“Maelee is great! She’s very thorough with her visits. I like her detailed notes and prompt communication. I have felt very comfortable leaving my cat in her care!”
“Kate took wonderful care of my cats while I was away for nine days. She is communicative and followed all directions given. She takes the job of pet care seriously. Highly recommend her!”
“Kim did a great job looking after my cat. I can tell she cares a lot about the animals she looks after, and was great at communication. Even though my cat does the same thing every day, I looked forward to reading her updates because they were so fun!”
“Kaitlyn is an AMAZING cat sitter who is reliable and trustworthy. She gives great updates and pics after each visit. I can’t thank her enough for taking such good care of my fur baby while we’re away!”
“Beth did well caring for our cats who "stress out" when mama's away. She even made an extra trip to double check on one of our cats who was being a bit of a spazzz. Quick to respond on the phone or via Rover's messaging options when needed. I'd recommend Beth as a stand-in Cat Mom when you need a sitter!”
“Brian took care of our kitten for us while we were on vacation. He arrived and left at the agreed upon times and took such great care of Peanut. He communicated and sent us pictures every time he visited which made my girls feel better about leaving him. He went above and beyond and helped us with some house things that we forgot about. We’ll definitely ask for his help again.”
“Tyler took great care of my 3 cats while I was on vacation for a week, he even came over ahead of time to meet the cats! Tyler is incredibly friendly and has superb attention to detail. One of my cats needs medicine, and he was capable and comfortable with handling this. Tyler has a gift with animals and I wouldn't hesitate to book him again for future vacations. He even put our dirty pet food dishes in the dishwasher. Highly recommend!!!”
About: I’ve taken care of my neighbors cats and love hanging out with my friends kitties! I would love to have my own cat, but until then, I’m getting my cat fix by hanging out with yours.
About: I have a lot of experience taking care of my family’s dogs (Bernese Mountain Dogs) and dogsitting for friends and neighbors. I have a lot of energy, so I am willing to walk, run, and play with your dog. I am also willing to take your dog to a dog park to get out some more energy. I also offer house sitting. I am a middle school teacher, so during the week I am only available for drop-ins and walks after 3:40. If I am dogsitting for you during the week, there will be times that I am gone for 8-9 hours at work. But on most weekends, I wouldn’t be gone for more than 3-4 hours at a time, and would spend the rest of the time home with your pet making them feel safe and loved! I work full time from 7:30-3:30 on weekdays, but have a lot of afternoon and evening availability for drop-ins and walks. I am also available for early morning drop-ins before 7:00 am. I follow all of the routines, procedures, and feeding instructions left by the pet’s family in order to provide great care for the pet and to ensure the home is safe and secure.
“Thank you Suzanne (& family) for the wonderful care you provide to my senior cat. He’s old and requires more regular attention. Suzanne provided daily updates and was quick to respond to my messages.”
“Booking with Kelsey & Forrest to take care of my cat was such a great experience! They were very communicative, sent pictures and videos of my cat, provided updates, and took very good care of my girl 🐱. This was my first experience with Rover and it was very pleasant. If you want someone that’ll take care of your pet like their own, don’t hesitate to book Kelsey & Forrest. I will definitely book them again in the future :)”
“Holly was amazing! I went away for 6 days so was worried to leave my two cats that long. She stayed at our house. They were so calm when we got back I could tell Holly was here with them a lot. My cat even ran out here when she heard the door, saw it wasn’t Holly, and ran back to the room! I will def be using her again!”
“Alyssa did a great job. She left cute, informative notes and took photos each time. My cats, even the super shy one, like Alyssa. She went above and beyond, and is excellent with communication.”
“Jenn did a great job with Midnight; he seemed to really like her from what I saw in the pictures she sent, and when we had our meet and greet; he was all over her.”
About: As the owner and sole proprietor of Cassidy's Priority Pet Care, I've had the pleasure of caring for animals of almost every kind. Growing up, I cherished my chocolate lab greyhound mix. Now, as a responsible pet owner, I have a rescue cat named Nemo and various small animals. Previously, I ran my own rattery, but unfortunately, due to the challenges posed by COVID, we had to cease operations. My cat enjoys a healthy diet of Purina One True Instinct dry cat food, occasional Whiskas treats, and other wet foods. The rats thrived in multiple-story Kaytee cages with a free roam space, nourishment, and dig boxes, and were fed a homemade mixture with a base of adult Oxbow rat food. Our two bunnies have a spacious outdoor hutch and indoor cages with premium-grade rabbit food, hay, and fresh salads, fruits, and vegetables for a well-rounded diet. I've always loved animals, I constantly joke I that I'd prefer animals company over peo(ple's any day of the week altho that statement might be truer a little everyday as someone who works in customer service. honestly though I've always found working with animals more then a passion but kinda a therapy for me and love to fill my free time with working with animals of all verity. As someone who loves animals I constantly strive to make sure that they're in a comfortable environment and mindset and always take in account the personality of the animals I'm working with to better handle each individual. When it comes to feeding time and or medication time I try my best to stay on a very strict schedule whether with my own animals or someone else's I make sure to put constant reminders on my phone to make sure that I keep to their regiment in order to keep them happy and healthy.

“Can’t say enough good things about Dale and how he cares for Cashew! 10/10 recommend to anyone looking for an awesome and reliable person to care for their loved ones!”
“Thank you for taking such good care of Ivy yesterday. Unfortunately she had multiple seizures during the night and is not able to return today. I wanted you to know that it was nothing that you did to cause the cancellation. We hope to see you again soon.”
“Another 5-star stay with Jacy! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Cinder always has the best time with her, and I never have to worry about him while he’s there. She takes great care of him, keeps us updated, and somehow manages to keep up with his insane amount of energy 😂. We’re always happy to have someone we trust take care of him. Highly recommend Jacy!”
“Easy and convenient. Joshua took such good care of our puppy while we attended a late night event that most day care services wouldn't be available. Chester was tired out and went right to bed when we got him home, which we appreciate! Will book again.”
“Melissa was absolutely awesome taking care of our dog, Finn! She’s so friendly and Finn felt comfortable with her right away. I felt good leaving him in her hands. I definitely recommend her if you need some doggie daycare!”
“Daniel is a natural with dogs. Both of our dogs went to him immediately and couldn’t wait to go inside. They are not always like that with new people. Daniel kept me updated with a few photos and texts throughout the day. Will definitely use Daniel again.”
“Chris and Vashti are great! They’re almost always available, even when I need daycare last minute. They share constant updates throughout the day. I get photos and messages showing Cinder Block having the best time, which makes it so much easier to leave him knowing he’s in great hands. It’s clear they genuinely care about the dogs they watch, not just going through the motions. Cinder comes home happy, tired, and clearly well cared for every single time. Couldn’t recommend them more.”
About: I've had one or more dogs in my life since I was 6 years old. I currently have a senior red heeler that I rescued 8 years ago. Not only have I grown up taking care of my own dogs, as an adult I dog sit quite regularly for friends. I do work from home, which affords me the opportunity to take breaks to interact with and toilet my heeler and any other dog we have visiting, on their schedules. I work from home, so Monday thru Friday, I rarely leave my home, except to take the dog for walks. I may go away in the evenings, during the week, for a couple hours, but that's rare. I do tend to be more active on the weekends, doing my grocery shopping and running other errands, as well church on Sundays, and an occasional brunch. I do have a fenced in back yard as well as a senior red heeler (as stated earlier). My heeler doesn't really pay much attention to other dogs, and seems to prefer the company of humans. That being said, he gets along great with other dogs.
“Katrina took excellent care of my dog Blu. She was consistent with communication and updates about how Blu was doing. She made sure to keep him comfortable and took him for walks throughout the day. I would absolutely recommend allowing Katrina to take care of your fur baby!”
About: I’ve always had animals of my own, basically since I was old enough to walk. I started my own pet-sitting business when I was 13. I’m the go-to for friends and family when they need their babies cared for and I love every breed. I studied veterinary medicine for a number of years and have more recently begun to train dogs, as well. I work full-time but I make my own schedule. I also live just a few minutes away from my work and can pop back to my house when need be. I’m already taking care of our senior dog, our new puppy, and our two cats. I love being outside and taking the babies for walks. I have a fenced in yard as well as two other dogs and two other cats. I have a large crate as well as two portable enclosures and no shortage of extra bowls, blankets, toys, and towels. I live in a great neighborhood and there is a park a block away. It’s important to me that animals are well taken care of and I love spending extra time playing and snuggling with any babies I get to hang out with.
About: I worked for five years as a veterinary assistant/technician at a facility that offered boarding, where I became kennel manager. I'm confident working with seniors, medical cases, behavorial cases, and puppies. For all weekend drop-ins, my partner Alex will be accompanying me. I will be doing all pet care, but for my safety he'll be accompanying me. He'll be there to provide a little extra affection and play-time for your pets if they're interested. My schedule is open! I am a stay st home wife so I'll be able to devote plenty of time to your pets. I will have my partner, Alex, accompany me to all first visits for safety. He will also accompany me on any weekend drop ins. All pet care will be done by me, but Alex will give them a little extra love when applicable. I'm used to doing various different routines to care for pets. I have a dog of my own who's very friendly- if your pup needs a friend we can set up a play date! I'm mostly excited to offer one on one care for your pets in a way I was unable to do at a boarding facility.
“Would recommend Gretchen. Received updates and pictures during our dog Nellie's day stay and was flexible with the timing of dropoff/pickup. She has a sweet dog that got along with our's well and Nellie got to walk and explore.”
“Haley was a perfect fit with my dogs. She picked them up for daycare. She sent lots of photos that showed my pups were having fun. Then she brought back happy and tired dogs. Thanks Haley”

“Jasmine is an awesome dog walker! She was very attentive and left some of the best notes I've ever had from a dog walker/sitter, which I really appreciated. She also used rover cards, which helps a ton, so I know where Moe walked and how far during the day. 10/10 will use again. I can also tell she has a lot of good experience working with animals. Thanks Jasmine!”
“Brian did a great job checking in on Mochi when I had to work all day. He took him for a walk and made sure he went potty. Gave Mochi lots of treats and attention! Thanks again ?”
“I would highly recommend Maelee. She has walked Scout multiple times now and is always on time and a great communicator. Plus the cute pictures after the walk are always an added bonus 😊”

“My old pup can be anxious and ramped up with care givers so I am delighted that he was calm with Tyler. I will definitely have Tyler take care of my fur babe again knowing I can depend on him and will not be stressed while on vacation.”
“Leah is great. She was able to accommodate a short notice walk for my pup Juice. Juice seemed to really enjoy the walk and was fast asleep within two minutes of getting home.”
“Rebecca was so amazing and it was so nice having such detailed info about the walks and how Jackson was doing with pictures! We booked last minute and Rebecca was such a life saver! We will definitely be booking again in the future!”
About: I have extensive experience around all kinds of animals with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I love being around animals and am patient and attentive to make sure pets can feel comfortable and safe. I grew up with dogs, cats, and a guinea pig so I am well versed in pet care. I also understand the importance of routines, communication, and trust when caring for someone else's pet. I have worked as a pet sitter in Grand Rapids Michigan in previous years and engaged in pet walking, giving medication, and overnight stays with dogs. As a student, I am organized and responsible with caring for animals, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with them! I'm currently working part time training to become a CNA, so I have lots of free time to take care of your pets! My weekends are completely open for any consistent care, drop in visits, feeding, playtime, and keeping pets company. When caring for pets within a client's home, I always follow all instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, crate routines, litter box cleaning, and any other special care needs. I’m very attentive and make safety a priority by keeping doors secure and monitoring pets closely. I also believe trust and communication are extremely important when caring for someone else’s pets, so I’ll always provide updates and photos to help owners feel reassured that their pets are happy and in good hands.
“Daniel did a great job walking our big, energetic huskies! He was responsive, always showed up on time and even went above and beyond cleaning up a mess our puppy made in the house. Our dogs always seem happy and well taken care of when we get home from work on days they walk with Daniel. We would definitely recommend him!”

I can easily crate your pet(s) if needed. I will need to do meet and greets beforehand to ensure it's a good fit for everyone. I hope this is ok with you. This applies to new, prospective clients only.

“Dan and Kelly were amazing with our two dogs!! This is our first time using Rover and also our first time leaving our pups with someone who wasn’t our family, they are 8 & 9. Though we were fairly short notice, Dan helped walk us through the Rover process, allowed us to do a meet and greet ahead of time, and was very flexible with drop off and pick up. Not knowing how our dogs would do as a first time away from us with non-family, there was a lot of anxiety on our side and it all was put to rest with videos and pictures of our pups having a great time there! There’s no doubt our dogs have some quirks but Dan and Kelly took amazing care of them and made them/us feel very welcome! Their house is very pet friendly with the toys, beds, and large fenced in backyard. So grateful to have found them, and strongly recommend them for your furry family members!”
“We were SO pleased with how Erin and Brian took care of Willow! Even with little quirks that Willow had, they were willing to adjust to make her comfortable. We would highly recommend them to watch your fur babies.”
