“Very happy with the care my pups received from Matt. Great communication and attention to my dogs. His dog, Domino had a great personality and I was evident my gogs enjoyed his company. Highly recommended!”
“Johnnica and her family were absolutely wonderful and made leaving our dog behind so easy. Even with a last minute change in plans they were accommodating and kept us updated with pictures and videos. We will be using them anytime we need some to watch our dog.”
“Kara took such great care of our dogs! She took us very last minute and was very accommodating! She offered pick up and drop off as well as grooming and bathing for both which I am extremely grateful for! The doggies came back happy, smelling good, looking fresh and well cared for! Definitely recommend and will be booking again!”
“Mary Grace was a godsend to our family. Our beloved and notoriously mischievous 11 year old /70lb shepherd mix is prone to stress and can’t be comfortably boarded in a facility. He is also getting older, so he struggles with separation anxiety and requires frequent walks and intellectual stimulation. Mary Grace was a perfect fit. She is extremely competent and conscientious. She met both Ranger’s needs as a full time companion (walks, feeding, engaging) and my needs as a concerned parent (pictures, updates, etc). It’s the first time we’ve traveled in years that I was not constantly worried about Ranger. I would not hesitate to book with her again or to recommend her to others. She is amazing and I’m so grateful for how well she cared for our boy.”
“Heather is AMAZING!!! We love our pup so much and it’s always tough leaving him behind, but Heather and her family took him in and loved him as their own. They have a beautiful property and active schedule, so our pup was definitely sad to come back to our boring house after having so much fun. We will absolutely be using her again, if you are looking for someone to love on your animal with peace of mind, Heather and her sweet family are your answer!”
“Christina was awesome! She watched our pup for a weekend, sending updates everyday! He loved playing with her boys and all the attention he received there. Would definitely book with her again!”
“I highly recommend Donald! This is his first time watching Snowy and she cane back happy and he takes really good care of your fur babies. He watches my nephew Bronson all the time and he comes back happy and cared for each time! Thanks Donald”
About: What sets me apart is that I am patient, caring, and treat every dog like they are my own. I’m attentive to their individual needs and routines, whether they’re energetic puppies, playful adults, or sweet senior dogs. I’m also dependable and make sure your pet gets plenty of love, attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. 🐶❤️ Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I have a dog of my own and genuinely enjoy caring for animals. I’m already used to keeping a consistent routine with feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of attention. I’m responsible and flexible, and I’m happy to follow each pet’s specific routine to make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable and loved while they’re in my care. For boarding I provide a clean and comfortable space, regular meals, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention. For daytime walks and check-ins, I make sure your pet gets exercise, bathroom breaks, food if needed, and some love and companionship. I also have a dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your fur baby. 🐶❤️
About: I have helped with animals my whole life. We’ve had cats, dogs, chickens, rabbits, parakeets. I enjoy playing and taking care of them. My friends have paid me to watch their homes and pets while they were out of town. I am a full time student but I’m currently online so I’m on the computer for maybe 2 hours at a time but I can take breaks and give pets the attention that they need. I have two cats that love new friends and are very friendly. We have a big ack yard but no fence soo I could walk them on a leash and I live in a nice neighborhood where many people walk there dogs.
“Alexander S was so wonderful! With my last minute booking, they absolutely took more than just care for my baby Zoé. They made her apart of their family. They gave frequent updates daily to ease my mind since I was away. I highly recommend this family! Their calming spirit and hearts definitely won me over. I will definitely book again and I think that you all should do the same!”
“All I can say is wow. Madison went above and beyond to make our baby Greyson comfortable, even given our sweet little boy a bath after playing in the mud with her sweet Shepherds. Was excited to see me when I picked him up, but he seemed that he was torn and wanted to stay with Madison as well. Definitely will rebook.”
“Alex was accommodating and extremely nice. He made us feel safe leaving our pups with him! He took the time to learn about our dog’s insulin injections, and even reached out with concerns. We will definitely use him again in the future.”
“I just want to give a big thank you to Robin! Ryder seems to have thoroughly enjoyed herself.. Robin was perfectly communicative and sent pictures daily. When I picked Ryder up she smelled the best she ever has & had a cute little bonus sash❤️ we are thrilled!!”
“There are not enough words to express how wonderful Veronica and her family cared for our lab mix puppy (5 months). Our dog was tired when she returned home, which told me she had the best time. Just two examples of the excellent care she provided...Veronica sent photo updates and she was willing to help our puppy meet other dogs (She had asked beforehand - again, just how thoughtful she is). The other example was our puppy came home not really caring for the food or water I placed down the moment we came home, which told me she was well fed and cared for. 10/10 would recommend and go with her again. Our puppy was so happy to be home, but she was sad on the car ride home because was leaving her new friends that took such wonderful care of her. Thank you so much!”
“Crystal was awesome and the perfect sitter for my Eskie "Scooter". I could tell on our last minute "Meet and Greet" that she was really special and was likely the perfect fit for my dog and during his weekend stay, she kept me up to date on how he was doing and behaving since this was Scooter's first trial with a "Sitter" rather than the old traditional boarding where he always came home tired, hungry and somewhat dehydrated. Crystal went out of her way to make Scooter feel like he has a second home and as a result, I plan to book again with her several more times in the oncoming months. She was a straight up blessing for me and my little man who has gone through so much since losing his "Mama" in 2012. He was raised by us in his initial year during Covid not being around a lot of people and/or other dogs, and not being around kids although he's been such a good mannered dog. I highly recommend Crystal and know that your dog would be in good hands, thank you so much Crystal!”
About: Hi!! I’m Sarah Pingel and I love animals!! I have a Siberian Husky/ Alaskan Malamute mix named Benny, he’s 6 years old and I love him with all my heart!! I also trained him myself and he can do many things, including knowing his lefts from his rights! I have volunteered at animal shelters for 10+ years, cared for many dogs and cats of all ages, helped train a few of the dogs I watched, and can administer medication. I also have a grooming certificate. Caring for animals is such a passion of mine and I can’t wait to take care of your furry family member! I currently write full time as an author, so I’m home most of the time. Because of this, your furry family will easily fit into my schedule. I have a dog too, so I’m always with him and I will always be around your babies too! My dog is spoiled rotten and I won’t let your furry family feel any less than that!! I will make sure your dog/cat feels safe and loved while their families are away!! I’ll make sure to give them exercise and cuddles until you’re back home with them!!
“Tugba was wonderful. This was the first time using her and things worked out really well. I really like that she wanted to meet before the boarding date to get to know our dog. I would highly recommend her and plan on using her for future boarding.”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Ellerslie is $35
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Ellerslie
After a confirmed sitter bailed on us, we reached out to William very last minute. He was super responsive and thankfully everything worked out really well! Our dogs seemed very happy and well taken care of. I’m always very anxious about leaving my fur babies somewhere new, and this was actually my first Rover experience. William and his son were both super responsive and sent us pictures throughout our dogs’ stay, which was such a huge relief. We’re very thankful they were able to accommodate us on such short notice!
Christy was able to take my booking last minute and I'm so appreciative. She and her family were great with my 10 year old Glizzy. She sent me pictures several times a day and Glizzy appeared to be very content at their house. Glizzy got lots of love from Christy and her family. Will definitely use again and I recommend Christy to anyone needing a sitter for their fur baby.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Ellerslie is $32 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $56 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 244 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Ellerslie. 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.
99% of sitters in Ellerslie 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 Ellerslie 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 Ellerslie.
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 Ellerslie 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.
