About: I have taken care of all of my animals since before I can remember. Walking them, playing with them, feeding them, bathing them, and picking up after them. I've had many dogs growing up ranging in different health needs and breeds. I've also had cats and so I have a lot of experience with them as well! I have a poodle, named Kai, and so I also have experience when it comes to grooming dogs as well! I also have experience with bearded dragons, sheep, horses, goats, rabbits, chickens, ducks, cows, and pigs. I'm currently a online college student that moved to the state of Georgia in 2021. I'm available just about any day and any time to care for your pets. When going to my clients home, I first notify them that I have arrived, I then greet the pets and take them right outside to go potty. If they made a mess of any sorts and the yard is fenced, I will leave the pets out to clean up then go back outside to play with them and get out some of their energy. If the yard isn't fenced and they made a mess I will bring them in with me and watch them while I clean up. Once done with all of the things that need to be done to care for the pets, I will inform the client of everything I did as well as how the pet behaved and give update photos/videos when requested to have them.

My schedule is flexible but I do work so just let me know when I am needed & we can work it out. I unfortunately cannot offer boarding in my own home due to my current dogs being reactive towards others ( recent rescues). I live minutes away from several parks & walking trails. I love hiking so I also know many different hiking trails varying in distance & popularity. I am familiar with crate training & can cater to any training that is currently used so as not to interrupt what is being learned.

About: I’m a professional dog trainer in the Atlanta area with a background in animal care, behavior, and leadership across both exotic species and family pets. Today, I work as a coach, guiding owners to become confident, clear leaders for their dogs. My approach is simple: you’re the captain, your dog is the player, and I’m here to coach the team. I teach you how to understand what your dog is communicating, support big emotions, and communicate in a way your dog understands. Instead of relying on me to “fix” things, you learn the skills to create consistency, structure, and calm leadership at home. I specialize in dogs with big feelings: anxiety, overwhelm, reactivity, or high‑energy and I help families build habits that make daily life smoother and more connected. If you want training that empowers you as much as your dog, I bring the experience, clarity, and real‑world insight to support your whole team. Rover does not give me the ability to show my real schedule. Please reach out to me directly for accurate scheduling information. We will work together to find the schedule that works for us both. I do not currently offer pet care in my own home. I will come to your home and care for them in the comfort of their own space. I believe pet sitting in a animals own space is significantly less stressful than having to adapt to a whole new environment. I will treat your home like it is my own .

About: I have enjoyed caring for pets growing up & as an adult for family and friends. I’ve worked with all ages and personalities — from energetic puppies to senior pets who need extra patience and comfort. I’m also experienced with administering medication, handling special diets, and supporting pets with anxiety. I volunteer at a local non-profit as well, rehoming disabled and abandoned dogs. I provide dog walking, drop in visits, but I am most experienced with house-sits, while family and friends go on vacation or business trips. I love the outdoors which means playtime, walks, and fun are always included. Love and care is my priority. Photos communication, and friendly service are important to me. Schedule: I work remotely which means I am able to flex my time. My care includes built-in play, meal, and walk breaks throughout the day. Please share their feeding schedule, favorite activities, and how they respond to new people or situations will help me ensure they feel comfortable and happy. Any health concerns or allergies are also key so I can provide the best care possible! I am smoke-free and keep a clean, hygienic home so I will treat your space and pets with the same quality care! My goal is to make the experience stress-free for both you and your pet. 💕
“Amazing! That's one word to sum up Kristi's visits with my sweet beagle/ lab mix. She was on time, followed through with my instructions, and very attentive to my fur baby. He liked her immediately upon arrival and trusted her. Kristi is very good at what she does and I'm definitely using her again and again! ❤️ 🐕 🦴”

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Whelchel. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Whelchel after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
