“This was my first time using Jaquana and she was very sweet and caring for my pup during his stay. She meet me the week of for a meet and greet and I was very appreciate of that. Her communication was thorough and she also sent updated pictures during the stay. Remi and enjoyed his stay and I couldn’t recommend her enough.”
“Katie was awesome! She sent great photos and updates and it looked like Paisley was getting lots of love and attention! We also appreciated her communication and flexibility. We would definitely book again!”
About: My senior dog passed away after we shared 18 wonderful years together. I know how much your family members mean to you. I will ensure my time with them will be fun and show care and love as if they were my own. I'm retired and have plenty of time on my hands. One reason for pursuing this opportunity is to get more involved and out of the house. I currently have only my little Percy - he's strictly an indoor cat with his routine - early am feedings and lots of sleep during the day. I love to walk and enjoy having a pal to share the time outside. I do miss my dog, our daily walks are where I hold very fond memories. She loved to bring sticks home and place them in the yard. I have always enjoyed my experience with pet sitters that I've hired. Each person understood how important it is to follow instructions and established routines. I would ensure I have complete understanding of each request and treat your pet as if they were mine.
“First time leaving Miss Anya for multiple days with Logan and his family, lots of pics, opportunities to play with their dog and others, which is always great! Logan's super easy to work with, and flexible which helps as my trip dates are not always set in stone on the return side. Thank you for taking such good care of her!”
“Anais is a natural with dogs. Leon took to her and her daughter instantly and had fun hanging with her pup, Canvas. Highly recommend her and I know Leon is excited for his next visit!”
“Yunju and her partner were the best dog sitters I could’ve hoped for. She sent me photos, videos, and updates multiple times throughout the day of their walks, meals and hang time and made sure our dog was loved on and cared for! She is very kind, super communicative, and fast to respond. She lives in a safe gated community with a dog park nearby. I would 100% recommend Yunju to anyone looking for fun and reliable pet care. Will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Whenever I need to board Queenie I will always use Kristen& Jason B. They took good care of her, kept me updated and sent pictures everyday. If anyone is in need of a dog sitter I would recommend them.”
“Fantastic sitter. Wonderful care for our two dogs, one of which is dealing with some medical issues. This is a loving, caring sitter who treats all pups as her own. We are very lucky to have her and highly recommend.”
“David took great care of River and sent photo updates every day, which I loved! He even let us set up a meet & greet for our pups beforehand. His dogs are very friendly and playful which made Rivers stay even more fun! Would book again!”
“Marissa did a great job watching my weirdo dogs! I was a little nervous at first about how they’d get along with her dog, Zoe, but after a quick pack walk they were all playing happily in the backyard. Zoe is super well-behaved and clearly used to being around other dogs, which made everything go really smoothly. She also sent me a picture and an update during the day, which I really appreciated. My pups came home tired and ready for a nap… a sign of a good day! Highly recommend!”
“Dana is the BEST hands down! ??She was very patient (especially with Thor),caring, and understanding of our dog's needs, wants, and behaviors. She kept me updated with his daily routine and also sent pictures for assurance. We were very pleased with Dana's service that I recommended her to my family, friends, and co-workers who said they'll definitely be utilizing her services. Being that we've only had Thor a couple months and his previous owner wasn't honest and forthcoming about alot of things that he was doing, Dana understood and still took very good care of him, as well gave me some pointers on how to get him the best care he needs. She gets 10+ STARS in my book!!?⭐ Thank you again Dana!?”
“Maria was amazing ! She is so nice and kept me updated regularly along with pictures! My pup had a great time and I will definitely be boarding here again ! I advise others to do the same”
“These guys have watched our Frenchie a couple times now and they are awesome. They always take such great care of our little creature and he loves it at their house. They were extra careful to make sure he stayed cool during a high-temp weekend, which we appreciated. We highly recommend them to watch anyone’s pet!”
“Alannah was amazing with my pup! She kept me updated throughout the whole weekend and went out of her to make sure Sadie was comfortable. I will definitely book her again🥰”
“Barron took excellent care of my Ziggy and sent thoughtful updates and photos for Ziggy's entire stay. Before Ziggy's stay, Barron took the time to get to know Ziggy and his health needs. We just moved to Atlanta and I felt at ease knowing that he was cared for. I will gladly book with Barron again”
“Sarah and Luis are such amazing people! You can tell that they care about your pup exactly the way you would want them cared for! I’m able to know that he’s living his best life there! My fur baby has some special needs and they have gone above and beyond to accommodate what is needed. Grateful to have found them on Rover and highly recommend them to everyone!”
“Lily took excellent care of my foster dog Harley while I was caring for another pet. She came home happy and and with extra toys! As a pet sitter myself, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust. Thank you Lily!”
“Grateful that Lauren watched my senior pug while I was on a work trip! He requires special instructions and I’m so glad he is in good spirits. Appreciated the daily communication/ updates.”
“Patricia is a lovely person and a wonderful pet sitter. She took outstanding care of our 13-year-old mini poodle, Pippin. Patricia pet-sat Pippin previously and he was happy to see her again. He bounded into her home and was completely comfortable to stay when I left.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Decatur
Kristen was awesome with our little fur baby. We were a little bit nervous as this is the longest stay we’ve ever booked on rover, but Kristen did a great job making sure Gypsy felt at home. She shared regular updates and photos about how Gypsy was settling in and that allowed us to be at ease and enjoy our honeymoon. I would definitely book Kristen again!
Sarah took great care of Honey while we were away. We were worried at first because this was the longest we had ever been gone and Honey can be anxious, but Sarah made us feel at ease knowing Honey was in good hands and would be taken care of. We highly recommend her for overnight boarding. Thanks Sarah!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Decatur on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 3,856 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Decatur. 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 Decatur 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 Decatur 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 Decatur 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 Decatur.
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 Decatur 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.
