“Julie and Michael were great. They have a great property for keeping your pet and letting them roam around freely and safely. They took very good personal care of our big boy. I would definitely recommend them to anyone. We will be using them again in the future.”
“We were happy with Willies stay with Lena. It was our first time but certainly will use Lena again. Willie seemed happy when we picked him up. We appreciated the pictures she sent, like a small collage.”
“We are so delighted and thankful to have found Pat. She's exactly what our sweet Bella needs (and us too). Her love for dogs is obvious and that is so comforting. She kept me posted and sent pictures during Bella's stay which was reassuring. We've booked her again and plan to use her in the future ❤️”
“Thara had an amazing time here! Lots of room for her to play and plenty of spaces to feel comfortable. We were happy to let her have playtime in a safe environment.”
“Goldendoodle Queisha took wonderful care of our 6-year-old Goldendoodle. We really appreciated the updates and the stress-free boarding experience for the day. We look forward to using her services again in the future.”
“Stephanie and her family took such great care of our dog while we were gone. She sent updates, pictures and videos. Even gave her a bath! I couldn't have asked for a better experience for us and our dog. Thank you!”
“This was a somewhat last-minute request, and I truly lucked out with Cynthia! She made Xavier feel welcome from the moment we walked through the door. She sent multiple updates each day, which gave me so much peace of mind, and it was obvious that Xavier had an absolute blast during his stay. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend Cynthia to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter!”
“I highly recommend Ashley for any and all dog boarding. She sent me photos and updates multiple times per day or as requested. Very responsive and my pups seemed to have a great time. I will absolutely be using her again.”
“Ashley was amazing with my older boxer and was happy to baby sit her. She gave her love and medications, perfect for what my dog needs. Ashley was even quick to respond when I sprung a quick pick-up time. I appreciate her being flexible and positive when I gave her Veri little notice on pick up time. She was also very flexible on drop-off time as well. Life doesn't always go as planned and Ashley was very understanding and supportive.”
“Another great stay here. I know that my dog is taken well cared for while she is there. This is most important to me as my little girl is so old now. Great communication and very good sitter. Thank you!”
“DeAnne was great! We’d never used rover before so we were a bit nervous. Our dog is pretty big and plays rough and her dog was so great with him! She sent pictures every few hours and made us feel really comfortable with him there.”
“Great family and they took very good care of Neo. He was flying out internationally and they played a major role in the coordination process. Can’t thank them enough for what they have done for Neo.”
“Lauren was a wonderful sitter for our Scarlet! She and her kids gave our girl lots of love, took her for hikes, and sent many sweet pictures. We truly enjoyed our time visiting family knowing Scarlet was in such loving hands with Lauren! We highly recommend her!”
“I received photos and videos every day! Both Havoc and Jelly Beans were spoiled!!! Erin was the BIGGEST lifesaver as my original dog sitter backed out a week prior to an Air Force TDY. I cannot thank her enough! ?”
“Sundae had such a great stay! Kaylee sent us plenty of photos and updates which was very reassuring. It looked like she had lots of fun playing with all of the other doggies! We will definitely board our girl here again 😊”
“Rocky had a lovely Thanksgiving with Yui and family. This is his second holiday with them, and he once again had a terrific time. He was well cared for and entertained the entire time. Thank you!”
“Grace was one of our favorite Rover sitters for Leo. From the moment we met her, we knew that she would take incredible care of him. She is very warm, friendly, patient, and passionate about dogs. She made us feel very welcome when we first met her and ensured that Leo would be her priority. She continued to send us updates of how Leo was doing when we were out of town and that made us feel at ease. She treated Leo like her own and took him to the parks and various errands around town. We would love to continue to have Grace watch Leo the next time we are traveling. We would recommend her to anyone!”

As of November 2026, there are 721 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Emma. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
92% of sitters in Emma 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 Emma 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 Emma.
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 Emma. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 92% 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 Emma 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.
