“The best dog sitter ever! Brenda & her daughter always provide AMAZING care to our 2 boys! My one dog has extreme anxiety and Brenda goes above & beyond to make sure he is comfortable. We love Brenda & are so thankful we found her!!”
“Our pup had the best time staying with Jessica and her fam!! She was absolutely fantastic, loved him like her own and sent us so many photos and updates. Loaf will definitely be back to stay soon!”
“Christal was quick to respond and very communicative while my pup was with her family! Lots of love and cuddles were given and my pup came home tired and happy! I hope we can board with Christal again!”
“Sarah was truly wonderful with our energetic Great Dane, and we will definitely be using her again. Our boy can be excitable and somewhat anxious, which didn’t seem to phase her at all. After sensing my own anxiety about leaving him somewhere new, she checked in frequently while we were away to let me know he was doing great. It was clear from the pictures and videos that our boy was getting lots of love and attention from the entire family, which made our vacation all the more enjoyable. She even took the initiative to wrap his leg when he begun licking at a sore. I would highly recommend Sarah.”
“Yevheniia and her family are AMAZING! I don’t need a sitter too often but when I do I have found my go to person! The love and attention given to Bruce was so wonderful and comforting. I could tell Bruce felt loved and safe.”
“Our two pups did great with Katherine and her family. They got a lot of loving and were spoiled for sure. They even slept in way longer than they do at home, so you know they had a good time while there. We'll use Katherine again in the future, as everyone seemed to have enjoyed themselves and Katherine kept us well informed complete with pictures.”
“Daniel is an amazing host! Champ is very clingy, but he feels so welcome and at home whenever he is there. I love the pictures and I always know he’s well taken care of! I would recommend Daniel a million times overnight”
“She's so good with dogs and looked like she really loved what she's doing. I felt so good and calm leaving my dog with someone I trust like Elaine. She is so warm and welcoming. We get pictures and update everyday. My dog had a great stay with her. Would surely use her again.”
“Carol was excellent. She catered to our Bichons Frisé ‘s special needs. It was our first time on Rover with Carol and she was amazing. Hope to continue bringing Ellie to Carol when we need her.”
“Alexis and her husband took wonderful care of our two high energy dogs during a week-long beach trip. Our pups returned happy and exhausted from their stay. We will definitely be using her services again!”
“We had a great experience! Viktoriia was very responsive, communicated quickly and clearly, and kept us updated throughout. She was reliable and took great care of our dog, Willow.”
“Tina is an excellent sitter! I’m a super extra dog mom and I pack every possible thing my dogs could need. Tina listened to every one of my instructions and sent tons of pictures to ease my mind. One of my pups recently injured his back so I was pretty worried about him staying with someone else that’s not me. He did so great and had no issues. They both got back super tired and slept the rest of the day. I’m so happy I found the best sitter and will use her again plus recommend her to everyone!”
“Cece took great care of Dodger while we were away for the weekend! She provided us with thorough updates each day and several photos. She asked great questions about our routines and made sure all of Dodger’s needs were met. We will be bringing Dodger back to her for sure!”
“Alyssa and Spencer took great care of Sadie!! They were able to take her on short notice which was a huge help and gave her lots of love. Thank you Alyssa and Spencer!!”
“Oh my God Jackie sent me pics everyday of my Luna. Luna has been so happy since we dropped her off while we went to Mexico and Luna has never been around other dogs but she meet Woody which they got along perfect. I will recommend her to keep your baby she is so sweet and sweet talking to them, my spirit went toward her and I knew my baby Luna was in good hands.Will use her again back home to be with Luna for Christmas”

“Our boys had such a great time with April, Chris and their family! They were so happy in all the video and photo updates. I could tell they got lots of cuddles and play time. It’s so nice to know our pups had their own little vacation while we were out of town. I definitely recommend them to anyone and will book again in the future.”

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.
95% of sitters in Buford 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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Buford. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 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 SC 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.
