“Wonderful couple ! This was my first time using the app , they made me feel very comfortable leaving my dog while I went out of town. Javier kept me informed and sent pictures my entire booking ! I will definitely be booking again”
“Marissa is awesome! Super friendly, great with communication, and our dog loves her + Zoey! One of our favorite babysitters and I'm always relaxed when we're out of town, knowing our pup is in great hands.”
“AMAZING!! Zosimo took Jock last minute for me, because of an out-of-town funeral. He arranged a meet-and-greet so that Jock could meet him and we could see where he would be. Jock's time with Zosimo and his partner looked so amazing that I was almost jealous. They went for walks in parks, played with his ball in the yard, he got to chase chipmunks and squirrels and looked so happy when I picked him up. If you had to describe what a perfect Rover experience might look like, this was it!”
“Words can't truly express how I feel about Anais. I found her at the very last minute after a bad fit with another sitter. She opened her home up to my Baxter and treated him just like he was one of her own. She gave me constant updates and pictures galore. Baxter had an amazing time at her home and was able to interact with other dogs easily. Anais is such a special person and has a God given talent for taking care of Fur Babies. I will definitely be using her again. She is a permanent fixture in our family. ?❤”
“The best sitter! I will definitely rebook with her. My pup had a great time & she even gave her a goodie bag when I picked her up with a cute little note in it! 5 stars for sure!”
“Colleen took great care of our dog, and we were very appreciative she was able to fit us in on such short notice. It’s clear she has a great way with dogs. We got regular updates and he seemed to fit right in. Thanks again, Colleen!”
“Katie took excellent care of Hazel! She sent me daily updates and pictures. Before Hazel’s stay, we had the chance to meet, and Katie ensured that she was fully informed about Hazel’s needs and personality.”
“I couldn't be happier with Dianica as my cat sitter! This was my first time using Rover, and she was incredibly helpful in assisting me through the process and even helped me extend my kitten’s stay. Her place was spotless and well-equipped with cat amenities like her water fountain, which my two-month-old kitten loved. I have to get her one now. We were debating between her and someone a little closer, but all the good reviews led me to choose her, and it was definitely worth it. Dianica provided frequent updates, giving me peace of mind knowing my kitten was in good hands. It was clear my kitten enjoyed her time with Dianica and her cats. I highly recommend Dianica to anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter!”
“Our dog, Luna, loves staying with Kristen and Jason. She is epileptic and they take the best care of her. Luna doesn’t settle well in new environments but she loves spending time with them and their family. We are so thankful!”
“Super great! Everyday I received a picture of my pet every day and he always kept me updated. Definitely one of the best experiences I've had on this app! Definitely recommend!!”
“Dana was a great sitter for my Duke. The atmosphere was nice and clean. Duke will definitely be a repeat visitor to Dana whenever I am unable to travel with him. I will recommend Dana again and will be back.”
“Kelsey was AWESOME! She was communicative, prepared, experienced, and super kind. I think my dog had a blast with her this weekend. I’ll definitely be reaching out to her first the next time I need to a sitter. Bonus- Kelsey painted a beautiful watercolor portrait of my dog that I’ll keep forever 🥺”
“Jax is always wonderful! She takes such great care of our furry babies, keeping us updated and making sure everything goes smoothly. It gave us real peace of mind knowing our pets are in reliable hands. Highly recommend!”
“Jada was amazing—very accommodating, especially with the unpredictable weather we’ve been having. She was extremely communicative and consistently sent pictures and videos of my baby boy, which really helped ease my worries. Since this was my first time leaving Blue with anyone outside of family, I was naturally a little nervous, but Jada made the entire experience stress-free and reassuring. Thank you, Jada, for going above and beyond to make this such an easy and positive experience!”
“Peggy was such a wonderful pet sitter. Our dog Snoopy loved his stay with her and her pets. She met with us before Snoopy's stay to gather some information on him, and because we were out of town for a little over 1 week, she offered to watch Snoopy for an afternoon so he could get used to her house before his longer stay. I was very nervous leaving him for the first time in over 1.5 years, but she sent us photos and kept us updated during the week. Snoopy's bday month is September and she even planned a little bday party for him. She is such a kind and thoughtful person and I know Snoopy was very well taken care of. I would rebook Peggy in a heartbeat!”
“Owen watched our dog Cliff and he did a great job with him. We were nervous to leave Cliff with someone when we went out of town since he’s had some separation anxiety in the past and we’ve never had anyone watch him besides our family. It seems like Cliff had a great time and Owen was very responsive. I especially liked the fact that he walks the dogs in his backyard since Cliff can be difficult on walks sometimes. We’ll definitely have Owen watch Cliff the next time we go out of town!”
“Our dog came back cleaner than we left her. She clearly had tons of fun and Logan sent a bunch of wonderful pictures. I HIGHLY recommend his services!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Clarkston
Fantastic! I was hoping to have her meet my girl before spending the weekend with Lyndley just because I know Rina can be very fearful, but I don't even think Rina needed it! I got pictures of walks and relaxing throughout the weekend while I was gone. I'll be using her again when I'm out of town!
We have a new favorite place for Lewis to stay when we can’t take him with us. Being gone for over two weeks, it could have been easy to worry about him. We felt confident that he was well taken care of the entire time! Having him with a family was a perfect option for us.
Demi was very patient with our 10 year old dog who has had only one dog sitter and us since we got him from a shelter 5 years ago. He was whining, yipping at night, and anxious, yet she was patient and kind to him, taking him for several walks each day and making sure he had plenty of space and love. Would love to use her again!
Our dog Lyra had another amazing stay with Elisabeth! Our dog stayed for about 1.5 weeks and had a wonderful time cuddling, playing, and going for walks. Elisabeth is very capable and attentive to detail - I trust her entirely with the care of our girl, who can be a bit anxious. Elisabeth administered meds, ran out to the store when they ran out of food, and sent us lots of updates and photos. Elisabeth and her husband are basically our dog's other parents now. :D We will be working with her again next time we need a sitter!
Brittany was Amazing! My dog took to her instantly! She was patient and kind with my..."strong-willed" baby. Her fenced backyard was perfect to allow him to roam freely. She kept me updated with photos throughout his stay. We will definitely book with Brittany again.
Kathleen was so nice, clearly cares so much about animals, took great care of our dog, and kept us updated throughout the trip! Our dog came home happy and we are so thankful for the level of care Kathleen put into taking care of her! Will absolutely book again and would highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Clarkston on Rover is $40 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 3,791 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Clarkston. 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.
95% of Clarkston 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 Clarkston 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 Clarkston 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 Clarkston.
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 Clarkston 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.
