“My Kasper was so loved and cared for. Trinise was the perfect host and her daughter made my baby her new best friend. I cannot say enough good things about the care he received. My dog has a new surrogate family when we need care. 🥰❤️❤️❤️🥰”
“Serinette is such a pleasure! I am very picky about who keeps my baby because I do not want him to be mistreated and I want him to always be in a comfortable environment. When he is not near me, I want his care from me to be replicated by his sitter, and Serinette absolutely exceeded my expectations! I can always tell when Lucci hasn't been treated right because he will try and run for the hills to get away from the environment lol but I didn't sense that from Serinette at all. I am so thankful to have found her, this was Lucci's first stay with her and definitely won't be his last! Thanks girl! See you again soon!”
“Glenn was great, our two dogs were a little nervous when I dropped them off but after their two day stay they didn’t want to leave. They ran back into his house. They were happy and smell great. If I need a sitter again no doubt I will use Glenn again.”
“This was my first boarding experience and Yunju was fantastic! I received plenty of pictures and updates throughout the stay. Due to a flight delay I didn’t pick her up until late at night and Yunju was so understanding and still let me pick her up that night. I would highly recommend boarding with Yunju and will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Montel was truly amazing! Pictures everyday ! My dog look happy and well taken care of ! It was last minute booking and I appreciated the consideration and professionalism in Montel!!! Definitely a person I’ll rebook with any day !!!”
“I'm so glad I chose Kristen to dogsit my new rescue pup! Kristen suggested a meet and greet to make sure we were a good fit, and asked questions that made me feel at ease. It was clear she was experienced. She kept me up to date with my pup during her stay, which I appreciated. I would definitely hire her again!”
“Kim was quick to respond to my request to watch my dog Dakota and sent pictures every day! Dakota LOVED it! Huge yard that is truly the star of the puppy party house. Dakota will definitely be back! 10/10 recommend Kim B.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Quanisha was great with my baby Tosh! She accepted our booking last minute and was flexible to drop off and pick up. I took Tosh to the groomers before his stay and they trimmed him really low and cut him pretty badly around his neck. Quanisha made me aware at pick up which I truly appreciate. She sent tons of pictures and her children were sad to see Tosh go. We will definitely be booking with Quanisha again!”
“Janet is a lovely kind, and generous person, Bailey and Chewy love's her. I will recommend her and will get in contact with her in the future. Thank you Janet with the bottom of my heart.”
“My furbaby, Ninja Girl, and I, both have separation anxiety. I was extremely nervous leaving her with a "stranger" for a week! Leeandra was very welcoming and helpful. Leeandra allowed us to meet her in her home and let my Ninja walk around inside before I decided to book. Leeandra was very accommodating with my schedule since I had to drop Ninja off and pick her up really late. Leeandra sent me pictures and communicated with me every day and seemed to be very patient with my anxious dog. So happy I found Leeandra! Ninja seems very calm and happy since being home, and I can tell she was in good hands!”
“Kourtney was very professional, she sent pictures and photos of my sweet puppy. She took great care, Toffee was very happy and took to Kourtney immediately. I would recommend her to anyone .”
“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!”
“Alvin was great! I’m planning to book him every time I need a sitter. He provided good, timely updates, made my dog feel like part of the family, and made sure my dog was active. I greatly appreciate him and highly recommend.”
“This was my first time using Rover and I was very nervous. Crispus had wonderful reviews so I reached out to him, and he has an amazing vibe. So I went ahead and booked with him. It was last minute, and I was nervous about my anxious puppy. Olivia had a wonderful time with Crispus. She is exhausted and happily asleep. Crispus is a Great sitter that I will be using again.”
“Our little senior dog came home to us happy and healthy after her stay! Jennifer is very friendly, communicates quickly and treats our dog with great care. We will most definitely be using her again!”
“Ashlee is Chase 2nd doggy sitter. She made me feel comfortable and welcomed. She was very friendly and communicative. Chase appeared to be well taken of in my absence. I highly recommend her and plan to use her again.”

Mary Claire has been an absolute godsend over the past 3 years. She never fails to keep us informed about how our Koko is doing while we’re away. Koko loves her some Mary Claire and I trust her with health and safety of our furbaby when we’re gone. Highly highly recommend.

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 Ellenwood 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 Ellenwood 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 Ellenwood.
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 Ellenwood. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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 Ellenwood 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.
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.
