“I am very pleased with the love and care Monica gave Tucker. I was very nervous about leaving him anywhere because I never had, but he was happy and taken care of. She sent me pictures of him and I really did appreciate getting them!”
“She was very responsive, super lenient on when you need to pickup and drop off, and best part I could tell my dog was loved. She definitely cares about animals and sends pictures throughout the trip as well. Would definitely book again!”
“They did a great job taking care of my fur baby, Willow! I love the updates of photos and videos without having to ask for updates! I highly recommend and will be booking for future services.”
“LaShannah, was AMAZING!!! This was our 1st time boarding Bandit and really wasn't sure how is would react to being away from home and around other dogs. I received pictures and videos DAILY of Bandit. LaShannah, made our dog feel at home and at ease.We would DEFINITELY be using her again and recommend her to anyone who is looking for a place to board their dog. FIVE STAR service!!!”
“Brittany is an absolute joy!! She was extremely communicative and quick to answer any questions I had. Bao hasn’t stayed with anyone we don’t know but when I say as soon as I dropped him off she let him get comfortable even though he was anxious and can be mouthy, she was so confident everything would be fine, it put me at ease! Will be booking every time I’m in town 😍.”
“Tracy and her family were so kind and attentive with our very senior, blind, special needs boy. Her attention to detail with his schedule and patience with him was so appreciated. We were able to go on a week long vacation and know he was getting the snuggles and attention he is used to at home. I cannot ever thank her enough for taking such great care of sweet boy. Her dog Geordie is such a sweetheart as well. Highly recommend. Thanks again Tracy!”
“LeKesha took such great care of my Monte. It was my first time booking with LeKesha, so I was nervous at first. LeKesha quickly offered to let us come by her house for a meet and greet before we left for our trip. Monte quickly made himself at home and played with the other dogs. While we were away, I got pictures and updates. Overall, it was a great five star experience!”
“Emily was absolutely wonderful with my fur baby. She provided pictures as well as sent updates throughout his stay. I will be booking again as soon as I’m done with this review. Hoping to have her as my regular.”
“Carmen was great with Susie. She made her feel at home. Susie has been introduced to a cat and did very well! Susie will definitely be staying with Carmen again in the future! Thanks for loving our pets while away!!”
“Grateful to have great care for my 2 dogs! Lauren gave us updates and pictures of them while we were away. Our flight didn't get in until late and she dropped the girls at our house so they'd be there when we got home. The best, thanks Lauren!!!”
“Jordyn took such great care of Koda, and we couldn’t be happier with our experience! She was incredibly communicative throughout his stay, sending regular updates and lots of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. She was also very prompt in responding to messages, making the entire process easy and stress-free. It was clear that Koda was well cared for and loved while he was with her. We would absolutely trust Jordyn with Koda again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter!”

“Morgan was an amazing host that saved my butt at the very last minute under unforeseen circumstances. She was friendly, easy, and made me feel 100% comfortable leaving my 4 month old puppy in her care. She followed up each day with photos and messages, putting my mind at ease, and I can confidently say that my little guy had a great time and came back to me happy and healthy. She was a pleasure to deal with and so sweet to help me out. 10/10.”
“Amy was great! Our boy got 1 on 1 attention and seemed very happy when we picked him up. We got lots of picture and video updates throughout his stay. Amy's house is very nice for pet sitting, with a nice yard and very clean. We loved having Leo stay here, and will definitely book with Amy again!”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Experiment
Madison was great with our fur babies! She was very informative as well. Both of them took to her quickly and seemed happy and wore out when we picked them up. She communicated well and was very professional. Thanks again Madison, we will definitely be looking to book again. It was a bit further out than I would’ve initially wanted but with her knowledge and level of care it’s worth the drive.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Experiment 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 Experiment.
<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 Experiment 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.
