“Auburn was absolutely fantastic in caring for our dog, Malo. She went above and beyond not only did she do an excellent job with all the tasks, but she also sent wonderful photos throughout, which really put our minds at ease while we were away. We could tell Malo was relaxed and happy in her care. We will definitely reach out to her again in the future. Highly recommend Auburn to anyone looking for dependable, caring, and attentive dog care.”
“Lauren was perfect! She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. She took our dog for walks even though she had a fenced in yard. Her son & daughter were gentle and great with our dog as well. I truly appreciate the attention to detail she showed. I’ll definitely be booking with her again—highly recommend!”
“Our girl, Sparkles, truly enjoyed her stay with Lesley. She was treated like one of the family, had a great time playing with Lesley’s dogs, and I was sent lots of photos of Sparkles enjoying herself. :) I also loved the idea that Lesley was home most of the day so my girl didn’t have to feel nervous about staying home alone in a house she was unfamiliar with. Thanks, Lesley!”
“Jim and Melissa were amazing! They took such good care of my 17 year old chihuahua Milo for a week. Milo has a lot of health problems and they made sure he was taken care of the whole time. They gave me messages every few hours and pictures. I’m so grateful and recommend them highly!”
“Karen took excellent care of Molly. I got regular updates and pictures. Molly looked super happy and well cared for. I would definitely recommend her and have her sit Molly again.”
“This was my first boarding with Katie and her family. It was a wonderful experience. Such a nice family and felt very comfortable the entire time my dog was with them. I can also tell my dog loved them as she cried most of my drive home after picking her up which for me is a clear sign she was well cared for and loved. ❤️ Definitely recommend!!”
“Amazing and we will use this service again. Our pet Luke was very happy and Jennifer provided regular updates during his stay. I give 5 star ratings for the overall experience and service.”
“Haley (Xiuzhen) and the entire family were fantastic. Perfect yard for getting energy out and Goofy was great with Oski. Clean dog-friendly space that was perfect. Glad we found you all!”
“Brook is a very caring and responsible sitter. I enjoyed seeing the daily updates and videos, and I could tell my dog felt comfortable with her. And she has a great fenced backyard! Highly recommend her.”
“Peanut stayed with Steve for about a week and we had a wonderful experience. Stevee sent us updates with pictures daily. Peanut got along with the other Frenchies and seemed to enjoy herself. We would use Stevee again.”
“Diane was so kind to our two dogs during their stay. One of them was sick from taking antibiotics and she was so patient and understanding with her and this unexpected situation. Her communication is wonderful too. Will definitely book again!”
“Angie is absolutely amazing! From the moment we met her, I felt completely at ease leaving my pet in her care. She’s incredibly attentive, kind, and truly treats your fur baby like one of her own. Angie sent regular updates and adorable photos, which made me feel so connected and reassured while I was away. My pet came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter—thank you, Angie! Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving.”
“Tamara was great with Jack! Usually Jack is very nervous around new people and tends to be more reserved but from the pictures she sent and the updates I got he was a very happy dog! He really enjoyed playing with her lab and daughter. Will be booking with her again in the future!”
About: I’m a dog owner myself, and I have always had dogs since a little kid, some that I trained as puppies. I also would help neighbors with their dogs, such as walking and watching them when needed. I am home most of time while my kids are in school and what better way to occupy my time than doing something I love and spending time with dogs. I will first make sure the pet feels safe with me. I will engage with them by playing with their favorite toys or going outside to explore.
“This was the first time I had been away from my dog since I got her. She is a rescue and is very timid around new environments. Upon my initial meet and greet I knew this was the right choice over boarding. Emmanuel sent me daily videos and pictures which put me at ease. I would definitely recommend him to others who prefer not to board their dogs.”
“Very kind. Great commutator. I will definitely use her again. My dog really seemed to like her stay there. Love that this Rover individual takes my dog on walks and interacts with her!”
“Hershey had a great time here! This was the first time she stayed and Ashli and her son gave Hershey such great care! Hershey currently has stitches in her paw with a bandage and they were able to make sure she wasn’t too active give her the antibiotic she’s on. We had a great experience!”
“We got in touch with them , the same day we need a sitter , fortunally they were available. When we first met, the vibes and enthusiasm were great , that was the tip off that make us trust them . They were in touch with us the whole time we were on our trip , they sent us pics and videos , that was really nice of them, they really love dogs and care about them . I'm pretty sure , I won't doubt to call them again for their service.”
“Kim & her husband were great! She took detailed notes at our first meet and greet, which put me at ease that she would be on top of things. She sent an update and photo every day. Her house was clean and dog friendly, and their whole "vibe" was very calm and relaxed yet responsible. Will definitely use them again!”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Applewood
Michele and her family took excellent care of Pepper. They took the time to make sure their home was a good fit for her, and sent updates everyday she was with them. We will absolutely use her for our future needs and I would not hesitate to recommend them to others.
Jocelyn is absolutely amazing with my dog, Chess! From the very first visit, she’s been so caring, reliable, and kind. Her dogs are such a joy — Chess gets so excited every time he realizes he’s going to see them! It gives me such peace of mind knowing he’s with someone who treats him like family. I’m so grateful to have found her❤️

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 Applewood 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 Applewood.
<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 Applewood 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.
