“We booked with Sean on short notice and he was super helpful and flexible with drop off and pick up times. He sent us photos of the dogs with updates to let us know how they were, which really helped us feel that they were in good hands. The dogs were calm and happy when we picked them up. Would definitely book again and recommend!”
“Nicole and team were exactly what we needed for our dog. The communication was great and the Daily photos were very much appreciated. We will be sure to contact her again the next time we are in need of pet sitting services.”
“Emily was awesome! She kept me updated daily with pictures and text messages. I felt very comfortable with leaving my dog while on vacation with Emily. I'm very pleased and will use her for the future.”
“This was my frost time using Rover and I was really nervous leaving my puppy. Donna was the best she took great care off out baby, she even sent us pictures during his stay. I highly recommend Donna if you want the best for your fur baby ?”
About: I’ve been a pet sitter for more than 25 years. I specialize in senior care for dogs as well as young adults . My dogs are both rescues . I’m currently semi-retired and your pet is my priority. I am available holidays and weekend's. I have two small dogs, they are gentle and like other dogs. I have a fully fenced yard, and a doggie door leading to my backyard. I can crate your dog if that is what you prefer.
“Tara was great with Trapper. She was super flexible and easy to work with and sent several pics so we knew he was having fun and being well taken care of. We weren’t sure if he’d be ok playing with her dogs, but they were super sweet and immediately accepted him as part of the group. He had a blast while we were away.”
“Angela and Rick went above and beyond in caring for our little Bean. They are an incredibly kind and genuinely sweet couple. We truly appreciated the regular updates and adorable photos they sent us throughout Bean’s stay. We wouldn’t trust anyone else with Mr. Bean—Angela and Rick will always be our first choice! I can’t recommend them highly enough. Thank you for loving our baby as much as we do!”
“Haley, Was really great with my boy Sherlock. I was very happy with her professionalism and attention to care for my Sherlock. As well as the updates easing my mind that he was in good hands. Thank you Haley”
“Alexandra was amazing with our little boy! She was so patient and took such good care of him while we were away. They went on lots of trips to the park and we got lots of updates. We will definitely be back and highly recommend!”
“We had to go out of town for a day and are very particular about where we have Fergie and Ella stay while we’re away. Roman and Justne made us and the dogs feel comfortable from the start and they sent updates and pictures to put us at ease. The dogs seemed to enjoy the stay with them and they accommodated some scheduling changes. Would definitely book again in the future.”
“Kimi took wonderful care of our goldendoodle, Moose, while we went on mini vacay! Moose loves other dogs and big fenced in yards to roam-he had all that PLUS someone to give him to treats and belly rubs! So happy we found her!”
“We could not have been happier with the service provided by Ash in caring for our two Yorkies for a couple nights. She gave us feedback and we could tell when we picked them up that they liked it at her house just fine. Well done Ash?”
“I cannot say enough about Debbie (and her husband Chris)! As a pet mom, I really need to have confidence in my sitters so I can get work done, or just to be able to relax. I have not found anyone better than Debbie to watch over my Tommy. She sends photos and lets me know how he's doing while I'm gone. He even fell in love with Gabby, one of Debbie's own dogs! So you know that he loves to go away to camp now! Leaving Tommy with Debbie has been a true godsend because I know he will be safe and loved while his mom is gone. Many thanks to Rover for having someone like Debbie as part of their team!”
“My two dogs loved it, they had plenty of space to roam & play fetch. They were so excited to see us, as if to say “we had a great time”. Such a great location, 2 fenced acres to run & play! Pepper sent pictures & video, great comfort. We were traveling to Greenville for a conference & had no idea what to expect. Very happy.”
“Patty was the absolute best with our new puppy when our other sitter fell through. She was patient loving and kind and even had to take her to the vet while we were out of town. I can’t recommend her enough.”
“Jeff was a great sitter! He responded quickly and was flexible on drop-off/pick-up. He took Leila to the dog park a few times during her stay, she came home exhausted! Would definitely book with Jeff again + recommend to a friend.”
About: Our names are Nina Phillips and Erin Carns, we live together in Clemson and both attend as third years! As two college students, we both are missing the company of and caring for our furry friends back home. Nina has experience with dogs of all sizes, but has cared for large dogs like Cane Corsos up to 160 pounds. Erin has volunteered in shelters since she was young, and has lots of experience caring for small dogs like yorkies! We can’t wait to meet your furbabies and care for them like they’re our own! While we are both full time students, our schedules do not have much overlap, meaning Erin is generally home in the morning, and Nina is usually home in the afternoon and night. This applies to both pet sitting and availability to walk or let out animals in your home! In our experience caring for animals, we have found that the best way to facilitate a calm, safe environment and avoid stressing the animal is to do our absolute best to care for the animal exactly as the owner would. To do this, we love hearing as many details as possible- all your animals silly little quirks, your routine caring for the animal, and any other things that could help make the transition easy for them!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 138 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Hartwell. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
94% of Hartwell sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Hartwell landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Hartwell 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 Hartwell.
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 Hartwell 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.
