“BobbyJo is fantastic. She took great care of our dog, she communicated with us daily while we were gone. She provided everything we needed to get away. I will absolutely board Rosie there again.”
“Hayley was a God send sitter. My Millie girl is a pitbull and I always find such a hard time finding someone who will sit her. Hayley was wonderful to her, her updates, pictures and communication was exceptional. I could tell she loves animals and loves them like they’re her own. 10/10 stars ⭐️ I look forward to using Hayley again in the future.”
“Cherie is fantastic! I kept having to extend my time needed for a pet sitter as I’m moving and she had no problem still seeing my kitties. Cherie spent time with my cats and went above and beyond to refill their water towers and clean their litter boxes. She ensured my home was safe and secure and I can tell my kitties loved her. Thank you so much Cherie!”
“Sarah is amazing! My dog is a senior and has specific instructions so I made sure Sarah was informed on everything. She definitely went above and beyond for him and I really appreciate her communication through the booking. I will be booking with Sarah again!”
“Cassandra was amazing with my dog. She provided constant updates and communication, and she also sent me a picture everyday which I loved. Love the fact that she has a fenced in backyard so he could run around and still give me a piece of mind. All in all, 5-star option here with Cassandra, and I’d trust her with any pet! We’ll definitely be back soon :)”
“When I say if you need someone last minute and want someone who's gonna love your babies just like your own? This beautiful soul is the one you need to contact. She's been absolutely amazing! She went and picked up my such baby from a friend's house and got her back to health in a matter of days. I've always been very iffy about someone with my fur babies. But Jennifer is and will always be a true blessing. I wished I could give her more stars. She's sent videos, pictures. And kept me updated on everything. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!”
About: I had my first pet dog at 11 years old. I have cared for other dogs such as my neighbors dog feeding, giving them water and showing them love! I believe walking dogs is a privilege especially for me because it will help me get out more! I work full time but I work from home! So feel at ease knowing your pet will have my attention and won’t be left home alone. I am very flexible and can even take your pets out during the weekends to a park etc I have a fenced backyard. I can go on daily walks and runs, I also have a park near my home where I can take them to play outdoors.
About: I’ve lived in a multiple animal household my whole life. Now I have 3 pups of my own and 2 outdoor cats that come first. I work full-time but am available before 8 am, lunch break from 12-1, and after 5 pm through the week and all day during weekends I have a fenced in yard. Dogs are welcome to go in and out as they please, roam common areas, and take naps wherever, whenever.
“She is absolutely amazing! Do not hesitate to book with her. She was super accommodating and punctual with pickup. She kept me updated with pictures and videos throughout the entire stay, and my dogs LOVED her. I have two large crazy dogs that are a handful and she was perfect with them. You can tell she is experienced and knows how to handle them. She let them play, monitored them & let me know about an ear issue one of them had, how much they ate and when, and what they did throughout the day. Her dogs were very friendly and everyone got along great! They were super happy and tired when we picked them up, I know they had a good time. We will be repeat clients for sure!!!”
“I really can’t say enough great things about Georgia and her pack Ivan, Gus, and Misha. I am rebooking now if that tells you anything. She has a calm, caring, confidences that my dog responds really well to and her property is set up for fun structured play. She updates frequently with pictures and Champ comes home happy and tired after a stay with her. I highly recommend her!”
“DeAnna was amazing! I had to go out of town for a funeral so my brain was elsewhere and she was so accommodating and friendly to work with. In fact, I neglected to bring something for my pup and she made it a non-issue which was life saving! She kept me up to date and was easy to communicate with. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Charity is an excellent caregiver! Couldn't have asked for a better pet caretaker for my baby boy. With a complicated supplement program she handled it with ease. Compationate attention given to baby while I was away for weeks. I highly recommend Charity. I was able to be away stress free, getting daily updates, and pictures of my little man.”
About: I can’t remember the last time I wasn’t around a pet! I’ve been taking care of animals of all sizes ever since our family Rottweiler back in the 2000s. From energetic Dobermans to loyal shepherds (yes, I’ve got those too!), I have a natural bond with dogs of all breeds. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just keeping them company, I love making sure pets feel safe, loved, and right at home. With me, your furry family member will be treated like one of my own! I also love training them too! I am currently running my own motorsports brand, so I have plenty of time and flexible dates to accommodate your furry family member! Any last minute requests are welcomed too! I truly enjoy long walks and caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes, I even have a Doberman myself, so I’m very comfortable with large, energetic pups as well as smaller, more delicate ones. 😊 I always listen carefully to the owner’s preferences and routines to make sure your dog feels safe and at home, even when you’re away. I’m happy to follow any specific care instructions you provide, and if I notice anything that could enhance your pet’s comfort or well being, I’d be happy to share suggestions. You can trust that your dog will receive plenty of love, exercise, and attention and your home will be respected as if it were my own. I’m here to make things as smooth and stress free as possible for both you and your furry family member. I listen to the owners suggestions for care in their home. If there are ideas or care taking steps I can add in, I will definitely propose that as well.

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Akes is $29 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 and $29 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
96% of sitters in Akes can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Akes home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Akes.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Akes. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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.
You and your Akes 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 Rover Guarantee, 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
