“LOVE HER!!! We left our mini australian shepherd with Kenzie for a week while we went on vacation. I was really nervous because he can be timid of new people and is also extremely active. I couldn't have been more pleased with Kenzie. Apollo took to her right away (which he has NEVER done with a new person). She sent lots of pictures and videos and was quick to respond any time I checked in. When I picked him up everything was well kept and I could tell he had the best time! I will definitely use her any time we need a sitter. She was great!”
“She was amazing with my dog Sunny! She sent me pictures and videos throughout her stay so I wouldn’t be worried. I will definitely consider her in the future and refer her to everyone.”
“My two pups had a great time with Karmen. They came home so happy and tired! She provided great flexibility with the drop off and pick up schedule. They will definitely be back for the next visit!”
“Jennifer took good care of Bentley. She provided frequent updates and pictures. It was our first time boarding him and we were a little nervous, but Jennifer made us feel at ease. When we picked him up, she shared a few tips with these first time pet owners. I would highly recommend her service.”
“Maceo spoils Bella when she’s with him & misses her when she’s away. He really treats Bella as a member of his family & that makes me feel so happy! I never worry when she’s with him. Maceo is also very accommodating & flexible which is very helpful with my busy schedule.”
“Words can not express how happy we are with the love Erica gave our fur baby. Scooter is not a dog to us, he is our family and he is very spoiled. We are very picky about who we leave him with as he has only been watched by our kids. I never Worried about Scooter the entire time he was there with her and her family. 5 Stars are not enough for Erica!! You truly are the BEST!!!”
“Absolutely amazing with Sir! She was accommodating and kind. We booked at the very last hour and she eased all of our worries. Picture and updates everyday! Absolutely awesome experience! Will certainly book again and again.”
“I would highly recommend Langston! He has a wonderful personality! This was my first time away from my pup and he took perfect care. He gave daily updates and pictures. His yard is a dog’s paradise. It’s spacious and clean! He is also a dog dad which was great Duece had a big brother to show him around and play!”
“Tanisha is wonderful. This is the first time I've left my fur baby with anyone. Tanisha put my mind at ease and answered questions I didn't know to ask. She texted me with updates every day and sent photos. Her communication was excellent. I will definitely work with her again.”
“It was our first time using Rover and we couldn't be happier. The regular photo updates gave us peace of mind knowing our fur baby was in good hands. Melissa is sweet and caring. We will definitely use her services again and highly recommend her. Our baby was on her own puppycation.”
“Kayla was so loving and attentive, Hank had the best time! She was super quick with any/all response time and sent daily photos and videos and check-ins and updates. So thankful that we found her! Thanks for everything, Kayla!”
“Absolutely stellar experience with Rebekah and with Rover because of her. I definitely felt like i was leaving my boy with family and i didn't worry one bit about him being cared for on our family vacation. Rebekah and her family took great care of my Great Pyrenees and the updates i received while out of town helped me feel even better about leaving him behind. Rebekah was responsive, helpful and extremely accommodating especially considering our reservation was made 2 days before we left. She was awesome and understanding enough to let us get a meet and greet in before the final decision was made for her to keep him. I'd utilize Rebekah's services again in a heartbeat and recommend her to anyone in need of a pet sitter that will pay attention to and take care of their four legged loved one. The peace of mind gained from this experience is far greater than the money it cost us and I can't be more satisfied.”
“This was a wonderful experience for me because I was Larry leaving Louey with anyone! He was well taken care of and came home exhausted, which is exactly what you want to see! The family was wonderful and we will definitely be using them again in October, but maybe sooner for a play date!”
“Tobie is the absolute best when it comes to taking care of your baby. She watched our fig Roscoe for the first time for 5 days and the amount of pictures and videos she sent my kids loved it. My dog became her watch dog wherever she went he went. She will always have us as a client. THANK U AGAIN”
“Jeronay, was great with Bruno. Communication was excellent, from the meet and greet I knew she would be amazing with Bruno. I received pictures and updates daily. I had a worry free vacation. Thank you.”
“Penny and Barron were great! They were so nice and welcoming when we first met them. I could tell our dog felt comfortable with them and enjoyed her stay. They kept me updated during the week, and I know she was well taken care of.”
“Candace was an outstanding sitter for my Max. She was so kind, sent frequent updates with photos and ensured he remained on his schedule. I’m so happy to have found her and will be rebooking for my future sitter needs!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Abilene home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Abilene.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Abilene sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter 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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in GA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
