“Anais is AMAZING! I really enjoyed how she provided quality care for my anxious pup. We will be coming back soon and this time we’ll include grooming care as part of our package. Thank you SO much, Anais!”
“I am so thankful for Serinette! She is a true animal lover and a really sweet soul. I’m always on the go fit work and I know I can depend on her to take great care of my little fur baby. Definitely recommend! Thanks Seri! Me and Lily appreciate you! 😊”
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Ruth! From the moment I met her, I felt reassured about leaving my little fur baby in her care. I was initially concerned because my pup can be quite the handful, but Ruth quickly proved to be my personal dog whisperer. My dog gravitated toward her almost immediately, which was a huge relief for me. It was clear that Ruth has a natural way with animals, understanding their needs and behavior effortlessly. What truly stood out was her exceptional communication. Ruth was extremely responsive, sending me regular updates and adorable pictures that allowed me to stay connected and informed about how my dog was doing. I never felt anxious or unsure during my time away, thanks to her dedication. If you're looking for someone who genuinely cares about animals and provides outstanding service, look no further than Ruth. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone in need of a dog sitter. My little one and I are both looking forward to our next visit!”
“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🥰”
“Emily was great! She communicated with me so clearly. She sent pics and videos of the dogs throughout the day. My doggies had a wonderful time. Emily was just the best! Looking forward to our next stay with Emily!”
“Kira is an amazing pet sitter. I felt 100 percent confident in her ability to care for my babies. She provided daily updates and photos. She made my pets feel at home and calm. Thanks, Kira!”
“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.”
“I started a new job, and didn’t want to leave my fur baby alone. I decided to use Rover’s dog boarding service. Ms. Aimee is absolutely amazing! She is professional, accommodating, and truly dedicated to making my fur baby’s experience enjoyable. She’s also responsive and sent me daily updates including photos. Aimee’s neighborhood/house is beautiful, and I love her large gated backyard. She is now my permanent fur baby sitter!”
“Ms. Wendy was very gentle with my furry daughter, Na’vi. She was very communicative with me and sent me pictures everyday and updates on how Na’vi was doing. She is very professional and straightforward with the way she provides her service but makes sure we felt comfortable before Na’vi’s stay.”
“Shanique was wonderful with Sade. She was very communicative from start to finish, professional, and clearly attentive. She sent regular updates and pictures, which made it easy to see that Sade was comfortable and happy in her care. Sade definitely seemed to like her, and that peace of mind meant everything. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Shanique and would gladly have her watch Sade again.”
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Krystale! She took such amazing care of Chi-Chi and truly gave me peace of mind while I was away. Being that Chi-Chi is a senior dog, I’m very particular about who I trust with her, and Krystale exceeded my expectations. She was patient, attentive, loving, and treated Chi-Chi like she was her own. I could tell Chi-Chi felt safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for, which meant everything to me. ❤️ Krystale is truly a gem, and I’m so grateful to have found her! I would absolutely trust her with Chi-Chi again and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable, compassionate, and amazing with their fur baby. **10/10 — highly recommend!** 🐾❤️”
“Meredith was so communicative and had great problem solving skills for our new foster dog. She even trained him a bit. Couldn’t be happier and would definitely use her again!”
About: I was raised around dogs and I grew up walking and playing with dogs of many different breeds. As an adult, I enjoy spending time with pets. I'm a nature lover so I enjoy spending time outside. I'm available for overnight care on weekends and Friday evenings. I work during the day but in the evenings I am generally free most days. While my yard is not fenced, I live in a quiet suburban neighborhood and I have a few parks within walking distance of my house where dogs are welcome.
“Alvin did an awesome job taking care of my boy Oscar. He allowed me to have a meet and greet for him and Oscar prior to the booking. Oscar warmed up to him fairly quick and that’s not his normal. I felt it was a match from there. Alvin did a great job in communicating with me throughout Oscar’s day. I definitely plan on using him again for future bookings. EC”
“Asante was very friendly and communicated well throughout the entire time my dog stayed with her. She took care of him and made sure to send lots of pics and updates the whole time! She was also very flexible if plans slightly changed which was appreciated! I would definitely have her watch my fur baby again.”
“OMG!!!!!!! My baby was well taken care of. Onyx is a sweet baby but he needs a lot of love and I can tell that’s what he received. Very accommodating and personable. Crispus, thank you for being you and loving on our Onyx. We will see you soon!!!!”
“Chris & Marie-Louise are the best. They have watched our Louie multiple times. They send multiple pictures updates which is comforting when away from your fur baby. Louie always has a great time with them. They are the best!”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I’m incredibly grateful for the wonderful care Zeus received during his stay. I was away for a couple of weeks spending much-needed time with family, and knowing Zeus was in such good hands allowed me to truly focus on being present and enjoy that time without constantly worrying about how he was doing. This was the longest we’ve been apart in a very long time, so naturally I was a little nervous about leaving him. The communication throughout his stay made such a huge difference. I received messages and/or videos two to three times a day with updates on how Zeus was doing, which gave me so much peace of mind and made me feel completely comfortable knowing he was happy, safe, and well cared for. I truly appreciate the time, attention, patience, and love that was given to Zeus. It means so much to be able to leave him with someone I can trust and know that his well-being is genuinely a priority. I came home knowing he had been taken care of and loved while I was away, and I couldn’t be more thankful. Thank you so much for taking such great care of my boy, Zeus! I’m incredibly appreciative and would absolutely trust you with him 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.

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Ellenwood is $39 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $50 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

As of October 2026, there are 3,301 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Ellenwood. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
96% 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, 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 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 , 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 .
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.
