“Felicia and Bradley are great and always provided us updates throughout the our pups stay! They are reliable, trustworthy, and extremely friendly! This is the second time and will have more! Thank you Felicia and Bradley once again for watching our Rusty!”
“Moose had a great time staying with Caylei! We appreciate her communication and dedication to making sure Moose was comfortable while we were out of town. Highly recommend!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. Yes, that’s right. Six stars (out of 5). You couldn’t leave your pup in better hands than Chayna’s. I just picked up my dog from a week with Chayna, and there is no way the experience could have been better. Chayna truly loves dogs and treated my pup with so much care and love. I know this because she was in frequent communication, sending me pictures of my sweet dog. I never worried for a second that my pup wasn’t just being taken care of, but was on her own doggy vacation. Chayna was responsive, flexible, and sweet. Book with her! I will, anytime I need my pup watched.”
“Diana was wonderful. I appreciated that she accommodated our situation on short notice and made modifications so that my dog was as comfortable as possible. Appreciate her flexibility.”
“We are so happy we found someone to give our little princess all the love she needed while we were away. We could tell she felt at comfortable and home with Camryn…she sent videos and pictures over our kittens whole stay. It really helped us to enjoy our vacation with no worries!”
“Russel is amazing! Bacon stayed with Russel for 4 days vs and one of those days we picked him up for a quick doggy play date. When we returned Bacon was ecstatic to see Russel again! Russel even had him dressed in the Jammie’s we brought for him on a cold morning. Russel went above & beyond & that was very clear. Russel is quick to respond & sends lots of pictures!”
“Luciana was incredible!! She went way above and beyond to take care of my cat Camille for an extended stay while I was overseas. Communication was excellent, and Camille was clearly very well taken care of.”

If you are looking for a safe ,fun and caring family for your loving pet, this will be your place and right decision as well. We are normally very picky with high expectation , but , Stacy did cross our expectation in particular the way Cosmo has been taken care of so far.Highly recommended! Thank you Stacy!”

“Everything went great! My Gracie girl was happy and excited at the beginining, she couldn't wait to get inside the houe. Adriana was loving towards Gracie every day, playing with her and giving plenty belly rubs. This was a great experience for both Gracie and me! Adriana has a fensed in back yard well Gracie could run and play everyday. Best of all I recieved so many pictures and videos sharing Gracie's daily activities. I highly recommend Adriana to everyone seeking the best care for their paw babie when they go away!”
“This was our first time leaving our fur baby with another person. Bronx boarded at Tevin’s facility for 5 days. We were concerned, but Tevin gave us a tour of his backyard, the place (home) he would be keeping Bronx along with the rest of the dogs. The facility itself is clean. None of the dogs were in distress. Tevin’s wife is also a groomer, so I was also able to have our fur baby bathed before coming home. Tevin sent us pictures, videos, & updates multiple times. Tevin was great & you can tell that he is a natural at what he does. He also shows you his certifications & credentials. I would not hesitate to have him watch out for baby again. This was a great experience for all of us.”
“Tiffany took excellent care of my dogs, Baloo and Charlie, during their one-month stay. She shared regular photos, has fair pricing, and provides a spacious, safe environment where pets are treated like family. I highly recommend Tiffany and would gladly use her services again.”
“Great experience overall. They were very accommodating to my schedule, which I really appreciated. Responded to my messages quickly and they made the whole process convenient and stress-free. Highly recommend!”
“Our dogs just had another great stay with Donna (& Jon). This was just one of a number of bookings, 2 of them lasted for the entire week, over the last few months. All stays have been exceptional. Donna is consistent in the excellent quality of care, her communication via text, Rover messages and by sending pictures during every stay. Our dogs appear truly happy every time we drop them off. They know that they'll be loved and sufficiently spoiled at their 'home away from home'. We're pleased to have found Donna and look forward to continuing to be a very satified repeat customer.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Athens
Tiye was fantastic! She took Tucker in and treated him as her own for two weeks. Tucker can be a handful, but she took it in stride and didn’t bat an eye when he showed his crazy personality. Quick to communicate any issues and seemed genuinely excited to take him in :) I couldn’t recommend Tiye more.
Angela was wonderful! She took great care of Hudson, and what I appreciated most was her communication. She kept me updated throughout his stay with messages and photos, so I never had to wonder how he was doing. It made it so easy to relax knowing he was in good hands. I also really appreciated the thoughtful temperament and behavior assessment she sent after his stay. It was such a nice bonus and showed how much she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!
A week ago today, I left my "Furry Baby", Dora, in the care of Ms Annette for 10 days With some anxiety because this was Dora's First Boarding experience. Upon return from My trip I saw that there was absolutely no need to be anxious. Dora was well cared for Emotionally and Physically. Ms Annette is Truly a "STAR SITTER" and I will ABSOLUTELY Use Her again when needed!!
Bailey was the first sitter I booked on Rover and I am SO grateful for her kindness and flexibility! She made me feel safe and comfortable to trust her with my fur baby. She sent updates and pictures of my girl daily and responded quickly to my messages. I am so sad her availability is limited, but I would 100% recommend Bailey to everyone! Thank you so much!

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Athens on Rover is $43.29 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 480 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Athens. About 91% of Athens sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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 sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
