“Richard agreed to keep Skipper on short notice because we were attending a funeral. It was so appreciated and it was good to know Skipper was in such good hands!”
“We were nervous leaving our shy girl with someone while we traveled. Dahlia was kind, patient, and excellent with communicating little updates (ex. she ate all her dinner, she’s been stealthily playing when she thinks no one is watching, etc) . She really set our mind at ease. I would ask her to cat sit again without any hesitation.”
“Pilar was very communicative and thorough. This was Otis's second time at a boarder's house and his exhaustion afterwards tells me he had quite the time enjoying their spacious back yard with several other playmates. That's all we wanted, and if he's happy, we're happy. Thanks Pilar and Eric!”
“DeAnne was amazing! I was leaving my Tibetan Terrior with a stranger for the first time, who suffers from some mild separation anxiety and had been crate abused - so he's a little special. But after meeting DeAnne and cooper, she was not a stranger. She was dog person who got it! Reggie had a wonderful time staying with her. She sent me multiple daily updates and pictures that made me feel so happy and comforted knowing my dog was being well cared for. We will ALWAYS hire her to watch our dogs, she was amazing and my pup had the best time!!!! Thank you again!!! ?”
“I stand by my previous review… Gretchen and Marc are the best! Just got back from our honeymoon and they had our girl for 10 days!!! Our minds were at ease the whole trip and we knew our girl was getting all the love and attention. Gretchen sent photos and updates which we loved. We will continue to use them!”
“Lindsay is very good with our doggie. We feel at peace knowing Lou is in good care when he is not with us. We continue to use her services every time we need it. Thank you 😊”
“Johanna and Jerald took wonderful care of our two dogs while we were away. They were so kind and caring and sent pictures throughout the week to keep us updated on how they were doing. Their dogs got along great with our two and we just couldn’t have asked for anything better. They were treated so well, we were afraid they might not want to come home! We definitely recommend Johanna and Jerald and look forward to having them care for our “fur babies” again!”
“Sitong did an amazing job taking care of our dog for three weeks. Venom was happy, healthy, and spotless when we picked him up. It was clear he was well loved. Highly recommend Sitong to anyone looking for trustworthy dog care.”
“Layla is phenomenal with the dogs. She takes amazing care of them and makes sure to send pictures and update me while I am out of town. I could not ask for a better border while I am away!”
“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!”
“Hilary was wonderful! She took amazing care of my dog and he seemed relaxed, happy, and provided with lots of love. She sent cute (and funny!) pictures of my dog throughout his stay, provided frequent updates, and gave me peace of mind while away from my pup. I highly recommend Hilary for anyone looking for a caring pet sitter. Thank you so much, Hilary!”
“Vanessa was awesome with our dog, Diesel! We got regular pics of him and she took time to meet him and answer all our questions before hand. She has an awesome yard for the dogs to play in as well.”
About: I was raised with animals so they are my sweet spot. Rather you have a cuddler or an extrovert I make my space convenient for them. I am an army veteran and student who has plenty of time to be hands-on with your baby. I treat any animal care job as a clock-in job and remain dedicated during those timeslots. I live in a townhome and have a fenced in playground where animals can run free. I reserve the playground to ensure that your baby, my two (toy poodle and mini schnauzer) are the only ones there.
“Where do I start?! Karen and her family have been the absolute best! They kept us up to date daily on our pup and what he was up to. We will be booking again in the near future as we now view Karen and her family as a trusted sitter for our precious pup. Karen is very knowledgeable about the dogs and their breeds. I can’t give enough kuddos or express the great assistance she has provided us with our pup. If you want your pet to be comfortable and safe, Karen should definitely be your go to!”
“Ryan and his family are lovely people and took excellent care of my dog. They have a young Aussie who was also sweet and my dog came back to me very relaxed and happy (and very tired after all the fun!). Ryan offered to bathe my dog after he got dirty on a hike, which was very thoughtful. He sent frequent photos and kept me in the loop with everything, which put me at ease after having a poor experience with a previous Rover dog sitter. I couldn’t recommend this family enough! Thank you Ryan and family!”
“Jillian was extremely accommodating, and took great care of our Kobe! She sent updates and pictures daily to let us see that he was OK. We will definitely book with Jillian in the future!”
“My dog had a great time apparently because she was exausted after we picked her up. She loved to run so she had plenty of exercise. We will definetly recomend Nakeisha. She is very nice and patience.”
“It was a great experience using Rover for the first time. Analygia and her husband took a good care of Buster, and they sent pictures or updates daily. Will definitely use their service again!”
“Chris was an amazing dog sitter! She and her husband were so kind and welcoming. Chris took the time to thoroughly understand our puppy’s routine, from food and treats to supplements and crate training. She did a fantastic job socializing him during his stay and kept us updated with frequent photos and detailed messages. We felt completely at ease knowing our puppy was in great hands! We will definitely rebook!🐶🐾💙”
“Christina and her husband took amazing care of Asher! Her house is well suited for dogs. They took the time to play and walk Asher. She is very experienced with dogs as well. I would definitely have her look after Asher again.”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Buford is $45
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Buford
Finding Chris and Fred was truly a blessing for our family. After a very difficult boarding experience in 2015, we had not felt comfortable leaving Chika and Simba with anyone while traveling. For more than a decade, we simply avoided it. This time, we had a very special family trip and needed someone we could completely trust. Chris and Fred exceeded every expectation. They cared for our senior pups with so much love, patience, and attention. They kept everything clean, gave them their vitamins and medications, and were especially wonderful with Chika during the daily thunderstorms, making sure she felt safe and protected. They also took excellent care of Simba, who requires extra attention because of his previous surgeries and hand-feeding needs. The daily updates and photos gave us such peace of mind. Seeing them happy, comfortable, and even playing showed us just how well they were being cared for. And when we came home, they were so comfortable that they almost didn’t want to leave! Chris and Fred gave us something we hadn’t had in many years: the ability to travel without worrying about our pups. We are incredibly grateful and would trust them with Chika and Simba again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Chris and Fred, for loving our babies like they were your own! 💖🐾
Valery took great care of my pup while I was gone. She was friendly, sent pictures and updates often. She also was responsive when I messaged her. She brushed Koko and was gentle with her. I appreciate her taking this job last minute as well; she was a life-saver! I will definitely book her again.
We couldn’t be happier with the care John gave our dog. He is kind, attentive, and clearly someone who truly loves dogs. He immediately understood what our dog needed and responded right away, whether it was playtime, comfort, or attention. John is actually our neighbor, so we see how he interacts with dogs regularly. Watching him up close, it’s easy to see how much he genuinely cares. He is a true dog lover, and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and loving sitter.
Thanks to both Lakia and her husband DJ for taking care of Luther. We just picked him up and he was in a great mood. There is a pretty anxious dog which made me worry a little bit more about leaving him. But they were so patient with him that he warmed up enough to trust them and experience some new things. We appreciated every picture and update we got.
Absolutely wonderful experience with Eric & Sara caring for our mini Labradoodle while away. They were flexible with our wonky schedule, so communicative and patient with Sky, even through her anxious transition. When she got home, she was pouting for the next day! She missed her new friends! We will definitely keep Eric as our local go-to when needed.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Buford on Rover is $37.74 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 2,388 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Buford. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
94% of Buford sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Buford landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Buford 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 Buford.
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.
You and your Buford 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.
