“Mikaela was amazing! Flexible with our changing schedule. She sent us updates and photos multiple times throughout the day which made us feel more comfortable about leaving our fur baby behind. The kennels were spotless and the run area was large and well kept. We would definitely use her again.”


“Chayna has kept my pup several times now. I am very happy with her and have no worries when Freyja is in her care! Chayna’s love for animals is obvious upon speaking with her. She has been very responsive and sends pictures as well. Chayna also has a nice fenced in area for Freyja to play. If I need to leave my dog in someone else’s care, Chayna is my first choice!”


“Super grateful to have found Alexandra while we were passing through Taccoa! She was very flexible with our schedule and patient with Canela! We would book with her again!”

“Discovering Dogwood has been life changing for us and for our dog. Not only has it given us the freedom to travel and move about with peace of mind knowing our “only child” is in such great hands, but our dog is happier and more socialized thanks to all the new playmates he has met there. Giselle and Jeff are so professional and caring and it shows in every aspect of their business. I have lost count of the number of 5 star stays our dog has enjoyed there, but each time we drive away I feel compelled to sing their praises in this forum in hopes it might encourage someone who has never felt comfortable leaving their dog with a stranger to give Dogwood a try. This is an experience like no other thanks to Jeff and Giselle. It truly does not get any better!”

“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!”


“Bailey is our go-to person for Nero! She takes excellent care of him and always keeps us updated. We are very grateful to have found someone we can trust and count on whenever we need someone to watch him. ❤️🐕🦺🐾🦴”

“I found Tracey extremely last minute for my dad’s dog and she was beyond kind and communicative. She sent me photos of my dad’s dog, as well as let me know how he was doing as he has bad separation anxiety! I will definitely be booking with her again! Thank you so much Tracey!”

“This was my first time ever using a pet sitter and thank goodness I found Amanda!! Wow! She had an outstanding response rate to all of my texts and calls. She even sent me pictures of my dog to reassure me she was ok because she knew I was nervous about her being an escape artist. When I picked up my dog both times, my girl seemed so content & happy. Amanda and her husband have a big beautiful home and give lots of love and care to their animals. I’m using her anytime I’m in this area again. Such a relief 🦋”

“Laura and her family took amazing care of Kiki! We loved the photos and the updates, and we could tell that Kiki had lots of love and companionship with Laura. It was particularly helpful to know that she has experience with loose leash walking. We would highly recommend Laura to anyone!”

“Kate was excellent in caring for my little Khloe while I was away on a business trip. She is very friendly and even arranged a meet and greet before the drop off day. Kate was excellent with communication and sent me daily updates and pictures of my pup. Overall it was an excellent experience and Kate made me feel comfortable about having to leave my pup for a few days. I already rebooked Kate for my next business trip!”

“I would absolutely give Melinda & McKenna 10 out of 5 if I could! Melinda was so responsive setting up a meet and greet with the introduction to her home. I immediately felt such great connection! Gracie Mae was welcomed for a long weekend stay. Sweet Eli was so welcoming and such a great companion. From the pictures you would have thought they were kindred spirits. The communication, updates, pictures throughout the weekend certainly put my curiosity to ease immediately just after the first day ! The love of their home to your furry baby is above and beyond! I’m looking forward to the next getaway and I know Gracie will be looking forward to her next stay! This is truly a spa retreat filled with so much love! Melinda & McKenna you are the best and thank you for the abundance of love!”

“Kristi goes the extra mile as a pet sitter. She updated me with fantastic pictures and positive comments. She is patient with my puppy Jasper and me. She's also very considerate. I will hire her again and keep in touch.”

“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!”

“Was welcomed before I ever got out of my truck by this beautiful family. Could feel a peace and comfort in just our first few words. Once I got Ms Luna out you could see their care for dogs. While we were out of town they would send little videos and photos of just how well she was doing. In everyone Luna looked as happy as a new puppy. When I came to pick her up I would say she was happier and looked even better than when I left my house with her. If we need a sitter again, no doubt Stephanie will be our go to. Can't thank y'all enough for all you and your family did for Luna.”

“Katelyn did a fantastic job watching our Minnie! She even offered to bring Minnie home after we arrived back in town a little later than expected. I would recommend that anyone book with her! We will definitely be using her in the future!”
“Stephanie was a wonderful person to keep my baby! She communicated well and often, and put me at ease when ever I asked about my pet. I would definitely recommend her to anyone. I look forward to rebooking with her.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Clarkesville on Rover is $39.96 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 136 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Clarkesville. 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.
88% of Clarkesville 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 Clarkesville 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 Clarkesville 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 Clarkesville.
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 Clarkesville 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.
