“5 stars all the way! Benjamin took care of our senior dog on a recent trip to st simons. She is on tons of meds I clouding eye drops and required a lot of special attention. Benjamin was on top of it and never missed a pill or treatment. He took her on nice walks ans between him and his girlfriend gave her lots of loves and pets. His little dog Millie is super sweet ans friendly and just loved on my Rana too! Even though Rana is shy with other dogs they immediately hit it off and I think the visit was good for her! I will definitely book Benjamin again. Very friendly, professional and responsible!”

About: I have been a dog mom my whole life! I grew up on an animal rescue farm while also volunteering at an animal shelter. I then worked at a dog boarding facility (Pet Paradise) in college so I have endless experience caring for all kinds of pets and farm animals. I am a mom to a 17 year old American Bulldog, 11 year old Corgi, 3 year old tripawd pup and a 21 year old tarantula. I work from home full-time M-F 9-5 with minimal an flexible meetings (also my husband is home by 2pm each day). This means I have plenty of time to care for your fur babies and keep them happy while you enjoy your time away! I have more than a 1/4 acre of privacy fenced yard with trees and squirrels to chase. I also have 3 sweet dogs to make you pup(s) comfortable when they are staying with me.
About: I have hands-on experience dog sitting for a variety of breeds, sizes, and temperaments, providing attentive, reliable care tailored to each pet’s needs. My responsibilities have included feeding, walking, administering medications when needed, maintaining routines, and ensuring a safe, clean environment. With my background in healthcare, I’m especially comfortable monitoring for changes in behavior or health and responding calmly and responsibly. I treat every dog as if they were my own—making sure they feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. I’m currently a stay at home mom. I do have a side job as a private in home caregiver for an average time of 30 minutes to an hour every morning, Monday through Friday. I’ll have plenty of time to play with your fur babies! I have availability for boarding 7 days a week. I provide attentive, personalized care based on each pet’s routine, personality, and needs. I stick closely to feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any specific instructions to keep pets comfortable and stress-free. In my home, I create a calm, secure space where pets receive plenty of supervision, affection, and structured care. I’m experienced with administering medications if needed and always monitor for any changes in behavior or health. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while their owner is away.

Gina was amazing, this is our first time dropping our one year old Ozzy doodle offer for an overnight. Immediately after we dropped Frederick off, she started sending pictures and letting us know how the introduction went and continue to keep updates throughout the day and night with us. I would definitely recommend her for any pet sitting.
Heather is a kind, dog-loving sitter. She was responsive to all texts before and during the stay. I also received daily photos and brief status updates on Essie. I felt Essie was in good hands during our week away, and this helped me enjoy my vacation. Definitely would use Heather again.

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.
95% of sitters in Hickory Bluff 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 Hickory Bluff 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 Hickory Bluff.
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 Hickory Bluff. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs

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 Hickory Bluff 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.
