“Jennie and her family treated Dunkin like one of their own. I can tell they really love dogs and that they enjoyed his stay as much as Dunkin did. I love that they have a large fenced back yard with lots of places for him to run around and explore. I would definitely recommend Jennie for both daycare and boarding.”
“Based on the photos and videos that were sent to me while I was on my trip… My dog looked very happy and well taken care of, and when I came back to pick him up, he barely wanted to go home, am I the problem? 🤣 will definitely be booking again!”
“Michele was absolutely amazing as our sitter. From the beginning, she was responsive, professional, and very kind. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away.”
“It was another great visit for my pups. Janira and Kaio love my pups like we do! Lots of pictures and stories. My pups are always so excited to get to visit their friends again! Thank you, Janira and Kaio!”
“Alexandra was so great with our Goldie! She sent videos and pictures throughout her stay. She contacted us with questions to make sure she was giving Goldie the best care possible and responded promptly to questions we had. Highly recommend!!”
“Ollie had a wonderful stay and Julie was incredibly accommodating with our trip being extended! Beautiful, clean property! We will definitely book again! Thank you!”
“Angie was absolutely wonderful with Yadi from the very beginning. She was incredibly detailed, thoughtful, and communicative, which immediately made me feel comfortable and confident leaving him in her care. Her daily updates were fantastic, very thorough, reassuring, and always accompanied by lots of pictures. It was so nice to see how Yadi was doing each day and to know that he was happy, comfortable, and being so well cared for. Yadi is a big dog and can sometimes be strong on walks and pull, so I know he can take a little extra patience and confidence to manage. Angie handled him so well and clearly took the time to understand him, work with him, and make sure he felt loved and comfortable. It was obvious from the updates and pictures that she genuinely cared about him and treated him like one of her own. I also really appreciated how attentive she was to the little details and how much effort she put into keeping me informed. Knowing that Yadi was not only being looked after, but also getting plenty of attention, affection, and companionship, gave me such peace of mind while I was away. I’m so grateful to Angie for taking such wonderful care of Yadi. I would absolutely trust her with him again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, attentive, and dependable pet sitter. Thank you so much, Angie, for loving and caring for Yadi so well!”
“Tycilea did great with my puppy. I was very nervous leaving him for the first time but she made me feel very comfortable and confident that he would be fine. She sent pics, videos, and updates. Would definitely recommend her in the future and will be booking again.”

They offered a meet and greet before to help Noodle be at ease before she comes to stay with them, and it helped all parties make sure it’s the right alignment. My husband and I so appreciative of them!! Thank you!”

“Anita was a great dog sitter for our boy Ace, she had a beautiful house all set up for pet sitting, each dog had their own space, she had a great back yard with plenty of room for the dogs to play, she would separate the dogs that did not get along. Ace had a good time, and we would not hesitate to send Ace back to Anita’s house. Dan and Renee Boring”

About: I grew up on a farm until I was 10. We had family pets and when I was 9 when got my first personal pet, my bunny. His name was Homer. At 10 I got my first personal dog, his name was Woodchuck. He was a shepherd. Our family pets were Yorkies. Later in life I had 3 other rabbits and then many dogs of my own through my adulthood. I had big and small dogs. There was a fun kitty in there too. I remember each and every one of them.I miss them all. I went through several kinds of training when I had an American Staffy left in my yard. We both learned a lot. Jasper was his name and he was my heart for 15 years. Frankly, he still is. I have a lot of experience with all kinds of dogs. I was a cosmetologist for 34 years. However, I’m unable to do this anymore. I’ve been our house manager,A.K.A domestic goddess, now. I’m home most of the time. My husband and I have 3 senior dogs of our own. I’m at their beck and call. I figured I could do the same for others. I take the pups on daily walks for exercise and to check the doggie social media. We have a nice fenced in yard. Which is escape proof, as far as I know. Large privacy fence and reinforced at the bottom. We also have a doggie door. No worries, I’ll go with your pups outside to supervise. Our dogs sleep where ever they like. They also lounge where ever they like. With that said there is structure. If I’m talking care of your babies, I’ll follow your rules. Teach me your training so I can keep things consistent. If you need any tricks and tips, I’m glad to help. If I’m at your home, I’ll do my best to leave it better than before I arrive. I will be the primary caregiver. However, my husband is home in the evening and on weekends, so there will be extra attention then. At your home, it will just be me, but I’ve have a lot of love to give.
“My dog loved his time with Srinivasa! He loved being to be outside is his yard playing or lounging around. Srinivasa was also very attentive to Rex, when Rex wouldn’t eat his food, he so kindly gave him alternative options to get him to eat. I would definitely book again and would recommend him to any one!”

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.

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.
96% of sitters in Emerson 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 Emerson 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 Emerson.
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 Emerson. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 Emerson 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.
