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.
“Peggy is by far the most professional dog sitter I’ve ever used. Our dachshund loves her and feels like family when she goes to “Aunt Peggy’s house”. Our dog is getting geriatric and requires extra trips outside for bathroom needs and Peggy makes sure she gets them. Our dog also feels like family with Peggy’s dog and cat. I do not have to worry when I leave our beloved pet with Peggy.”
“I’ve found someone I can trust with my fur baby! I’m so happy to have randomly found her on Rover. She’s been The best choice for us b/c she’s very reliable, flexible, safe and kind to our dog! What more could we ask for! My dog was happy in all the pictures she sent everyday and he was very happy when I picked him up! Will be using repeatedly!”
“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!”
“Antonio took wonderful care of my dog, Lucy — even on short notice! He kept me updated throughout her stay with messages and photos, and his communication was always quick and friendly. Lucy had a great time, and I’d definitely book with him again or recommend him to anyone looking for someone reliable to care for their pet.”
“Murphy had a great boarding experience with Isabella, and Ollie! She took great care of him, spent quality time, and accommodated his little quirks. We will definitely book again!”
“Jasmine & Christopher were so good to my baby! Kept me updated with pictures & videos while I was away and made me comfortable to leave kodi with them! Kodi came home a very happy dog!! Will def be back thank you two again!”
“Chris took excellent care of my dog, Circe. He was very attentive and patient, and I could tell that she was happy and comfortable during her stay. He regularly took the dogs out to a large park, which Circe really enjoyed and benefited from a lot. Circe got along very well with Chris’s two dogs, and it was clear that they interacted in a calm and positive way. Chris also sent frequent photo updates, which made me feel very reassured while I was away. It was obvious that he truly cares about the dogs he looks after. I felt completely comfortable leaving Circe with him and would absolutely book with Chris again. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

Joselyn was amazing! You can really tell she enjoys being around dogs and caring for them. Don’t be scared off by the low rating previously. I was in a pinch and needed a sitter and I’m glad I gave her a chance. She told me that was because of a miscommunication from the customer end about timings which I don’t think was her fault and she has been penalized for ever since because of it being an early review. She was one of the most communicative sitters I’ve had. Constantly keeping me in the loop and updating me. . I’m glad I believed her because my dog came back smiling, happy, and she kept us updated with lots of pictures along the way. I will definitely be leaving my pup with her again!
Samantha was great! I felt very comfortable leaving my older dog, Bailey with Samantha. She also had an older dog on the same medication, and made sure she ate (which sometimes bailey gets so nervous she wont). I know she was well taken care of and would book again!
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.
Ms. Dana did an amazing job caring for our fur baby! She was incredibly patient and gave him all the attention he needed. This was the fourth sitter he has been to, and I can honestly say it’s the first time he didn’t come back traumatized or withdrawn. He returned home completely safe, happy, and injury-free. It is an incredible peace of mind knowing we finally have a trusted home for our baby when we travel. I highly recommend Ms. Dana and will absolutely use her services again. Thank you so much, Ms. Dana!
Kaya is THE BEST - if I could give 10 stars I would! She was incredible with our pup and such a sweet person. From the start, she asked questions to learn how she could ensure our pup had a comfortable stay…she sent daily pics and videos…and even helped coordinate dropping him off at his next stay when we needed to extend our trip. She went above and beyond and I would recommend her to anyone, your pup will be in great hands! Thank you Kaya, Cypress will be looking forward to the next stay with you!!
Colleen was wonderful!! We had a different sitter cancel last minute but it worked out because Colleen was perfect to care for our pup. From our first interaction, we could tell how much she cares for her own pup and the dogs in her care. We were super comfortable leaving our pup with her, knowing he would be in great hands! She provided updates and he was having a great time. He came home exhausted and is fast asleep now! She created the perfect doggie vacation for him while we were away. Would definitely have Raptor stay with her again :)
Josh was an incredible long stay sitter for our dog Remy. He sent multiple videos and photos everyday and we were so excited to see what Remy was up to each day. He felt incredibly well cared for and was clearly happy throughout his stay. We will definitely rebook with Josh the next time we go out of town!
The meet and greet gave us peace of mind that our dogs would be happy while we were gone. Lauren took wonderful care of them! They aren’t usually happy with strangers but they warmed up to her immediately! She was accommodating of our schedule and the daily photos/videos/updates made it easier being away from them.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Decatur on Rover is $49.95 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 .

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.
