“I am so impressed with Julie and Michael and their big farm (15 acres). It is all fenced in and they have goats, a pig, some horses, chickens and two beautiful dogs (doodles). Wish Charlie Brown and Lucy could talk and tell me all about their adventures Julie sent pictures and answered my anxious questions. I will definitely use them again. Thank you!!!”

“We booked same day sitting with Stosh for our dog,Sheru. And Stosh sent wonderful daily photo updates and food schedule. Sheru was so happy and relaxed when we got home!"We would gladly book with him again. Thank you Stosh for taking such a good care of him, really appreciate it…..😊”

“Shilpi was amazing!! I have never felt as comfortable leaving my fur baby when going away. Shilpi made the process so easy and gave us steps to make sure we remembered everything. While we were gone she sent many updates and pictures and I could tell my dog was safe and happy. They did a phenomenal job making sure she was eating well and enjoying her stay. When we picked her up too, she seemed so well kept and her fur was so soft and clean which hasn't always been the case when we have left her at other places. I will absolutely be leaving my dog with them again and I know I will feel 100% safe and happy doing so! Thank you to them for taking care of my fur baby ♥️”
“When my usual Rover sitter was unavailable, I found Ashley to watch our Charlie for a busy Friday evening-Sat afternoon. She was highly responsive when I first reached out, and we briefly talked on the phone and it was clear she was thoughtful and would be attentive to our 1.5 year old Cavalier. She made herself available to the drop-off and pick-up times that were most convenient for me, and sent reassuring pictures throughout the stay. I wouldn't hesitate at all to have our pup stay with Ashley again in the future. Great experience.”

“Candie was quick to respond to a very last minute booking. She and her family were so kind and welcomed our dog to her family for a lengthy period of time. Jax had a blast playing and swimming. We received pictures and an update every evening. We will definitely book again!”

“Ashley took such great care of our Sally girl! She sent us updates of Sally along with pictures and videos! We didn’t worry one bit while we were away on vacation!! Ashley and her husband are the sweetest people who deeply care for every animal that enters their home! Can’t wait to rebook with Ashley!”

“Anisha was great! Kiva had a great time, was well cared for, and got to play off leash in a fenced back yard, which is a real treat! I will definitely request to book her again the next time I can’t take my baby with me!”

“My dog loved his time with Srinivasa! He loved being to be outside is his yard playing or lounging around. Srinivasa was also very attentive to Rex, when Rex wouldn’t eat his food, he so kindly gave him alternative options to get him to eat. I would definitely book again and would recommend him to any one!”


“Another great stay here. I know that my dog is taken well cared for while she is there. This is most important to me as my little girl is so old now. Great communication and very good sitter. Thank you!”


“Amy did a fantastic job! We had a very last minute trip and the day of she accepted our puppy. She took sooo many pictures and videos. She did exactly what we asked at night time because our pup gave separation anxiety. Our pup seemed SO happy but also worn out from play with their dogs (who seem so sweet). We will definitely be hiring her again for future boarding.”

“Lauren and her family are awesome! They made our guy Charlie feel right at home, sending lots of pictures/updates and giving him tons of attention. It was our first time using River and they made the whole thing really easy. Definitely recommend!”


“DeAnne is so sweet with my little dog. She loves him like her own and cuddles with him. He follows her around her house and likes going into her yard with her when she gardens. DeAnne is a great communicator also. She s sends me pics of my dog frequently. We are so glad to have her!”
“Tara texted us the same night after we dropped our critters off at her house to let us know they were doing great. She even shared sweet details about how they were reacting and settling in with her. If I ever need to leave them again, I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to have them stay with her. As a former foster and someone who’s worked with a dog rescue, I can tell her heart is truly devoted to animals—honestly, I think she might even prefer their company to people!”

“Katie and her family were absolutely wonderful with Jasper. From the very beginning, we could tell that Jasper fit right in and felt completely comfortable with them, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Katie was incredibly kind, responsive, and thoughtful about keeping us updated regularly with photos and messages. It was very clear that Jasper was getting lots of attention, affection, and care, and that he genuinely enjoyed spending time with her and her family. We really appreciated how warm and welcoming they were with him. We would be more than happy to have Katie and her family watch Jasper again in the future and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy Rover sitter!”

“Taylor is hands down one of my favorite rovers of all time! She was always quick to respond and very communicative. She took amazing care of my girl Aspen and gave me such peace of mind that she was being taken care of like a princess. I can’t recommend Taylor’s services enough!”

“Couldn’t be happier with the care Yuliana gave Milo. She has a wonderful, spacious yard that Milo absolutely loved…. he's obsessed with grass, so he loved it. Yuliana is super attentive. She was on top of everything and kept me updated with photos and messages throughout the day, which gave me peace of mind. She was willing and able to be flexible based on some specific wishes we had. Highly recommend her!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for the past 10 years, and it all started when my neighbor asked me to help care for her special-needs dog, Campbell. Campbell was a deaf Basset Hound who was diaper-bound and had difficulty getting around. Her family needed someone they could trust to help her get outside and keep her comfortable while they were away. That experience made me realize just how much I love caring for animals and helping them feel safe, happy, and comfortable when their families can’t be there. Over the years, I’ve gained experience caring for all kinds of breeds and personalities—from small dogs to Rottweilers, as well as cats. I’m comfortable administering medications, caring for animals with special needs, and making sure every pet gets the attention and care they deserve. I also live an active lifestyle, so if your pet enjoys walks, playtime, or simply getting some extra exercise and fresh air, I’m happy to make that part of their routine! You can feel confident knowing your pet will be treated with the same love, patience, and care I would want for my own. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member and give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands while you’re away! I own my own business, which is located just 4 miles from my home, so I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to give your pet plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m able to easily stop home for bathroom breaks, playtime, and check-ins whenever needed. I also enjoy taking a walk every evening, and we love exploring new trails and going on hikes on the weekends. If your pet loves getting outside, going for walks, or exploring the trails, they’ll fit right in! With your permission, I’d be happy to bring them along for a little hiking adventure. 🐾🌿 Your pet won’t just be cared for—they’ll get plenty of love, attention, exercise, and outdoor time while they’re with us! I have a fully fenced-in backyard where your pet can safely enjoy some fresh air, playtime, and exercise. I also have Ring cameras around the property, providing an added layer of security and peace of mind while your pet is in our care. I also have a cat named Nala who absolutely loves other animals and would be happy to keep your pet company! That said, if your pet isn’t comfortable around cats or other animals, no problem at all. Nala can easily stay downstairs in a separate area of the home. She actually spends most of her time downstairs anyway, so keeping the animals separated is very easy for us. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and right at home during their stay
“Sara and her family are amazing! I felt completely at ease leaving Nina (our princess labrador) for multiple days while we were traveling up north. I received not only encouraging words before the trip, but also fabulous photos to make me smile and laugh. I literally watched my pup have the ultimate vacation while my family traveled. She was loved by not only Sara, but her sons as well. Nina thought they were the best! While she was excited to come home, she definitely would have stayed longer if she had her way. I was so comfortable, we even added an extra night so that we didn't need to stress about a late flight, etc. She even had cookies for my family!!!! I would book with her again in a heartbeat. She will be my go-to from now on. We love Sara, her family, and her pup, Luna! A+, 5 stars, 10 out of 10.”

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.

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.
93% of sitters in Amicalola 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 Amicalola 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 Amicalola.
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 Amicalola. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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 Amicalola 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.
