“We used Jennifer's services for an overnight stay at her home. Jennifer was great to work with and very flexible around our schedule. Our pup Sadie had a great time! I would definitely use Jennifer again.”
“Jess did an amazing job with our dog! He is normally reactive with most other dogs. She was able to acclimate our dog with her other dogs and they ended up getting along so well. She also did a great job with communication. Our buddy came home so happy and you could tell he was very loved. I will absolutely use her again. I could not recommend her enough!”
“Kelsey is hands down THE BEST! I've always had dogs but never needed a sitter. I had week long trip coming up and for the first time in 40 years I found myself searching for someone to care for my Benny. Kelsey was quick to reply to my inquiry, offered me an abundance of reassurance and took all worries off my shoulders. We communicated effortlessly before, during, and even the day after my trip when she made sure Benny settled back in at home. I received adorable pictures, videos and updates throughout Benny's stay. Thank you Kelsey!!!!! I look forward to reaching out the next time Benny needs a friend to hang out with. ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ (10 stars)”
“I recently had the pleasure of having Sushma take care of my two dogs, Bubba and Yogii, and I can't express how thrilled I am with her service! From the moment we met, I could tell that Sushma has a genuine love for animals. She took the time to get to know both of my dogs, understanding their unique personalities and needs. Throughout the duration of her pet-sitting, Sushma was incredibly attentive and responsible. She followed my instructions to the letter, ensuring that Bubba and Yogii were fed on schedule, took their daily walks, and received plenty of playtime. I loved receiving regular updates and photos, which put my mind at ease and allowed me to enjoy my time away knowing that my pups were in excellent hands. Sushma’s warm and friendly demeanor made it easy for my dogs to bond with her. They seemed so happy and content when I returned home, and I could tell they had been well cared for. It’s clear that Sushma is passionate about her work and goes above and beyond to provide a nurturing environment for the pets she looks after. I highly recommend Sushma as a pet sitter! Her professionalism, kindness, and love for animals have truly made her a standout caregiver for Bubba and Yogii. I will definitely be reaching out to her for future pet-sitting needs! Thank you, Sushma, for taking such wonderful care of my furry family members!”
“Frida did an excellent job watching my dog! She was very communicative, friendly, and made me feel completely at ease the entire time. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone and would happily book with her again.”
About: Hi I’m Liz and I absolutely love animals! When I was younger I was always wanting to help out any animal I could find. I grew up with cats and a dog but once I got married my husband was allergic to cats so I never got to own my own cat. But I foster dogs on the side! I don’t work with any agencies, I just help certain life or death situations or senior pups who were denied proper care. I currently own 7 dogs ranging from all ages puppy to senior. I also own what most people call “difficult” breeds Akitas, Shibas, huskies, German Shepherds, Pomeranians, and Samoyed! I have a few puppies in training at my house and would love to share my knowledge of dogs with others! If you have training questions I’d love to help you and get you on the right track! I can’t wait to meet your pup! I’m currently working full time but I get off at 3-4pm each day and I am off Saturday and Sunday. I have a lot of wiggle room and would love to accommodate any way I can! I want to care for your pet in the same manner you do! I want your pet to feel like I am a second care human they are close and comfortable with. I will follow your instructions to a “T” so they aren’t left missing you too much! Right now I will only be offering your home for services but maybe some day mine as well :)
“Tammy was very responsive and even sent daily pictures of my girls (Helen and Heidi) to me while I was on vacation! Highly recommend to anyone in the ATL/north ATL to book with her! Thanks Tammy, -Reid”
“Savannah took great care of my dog Spike. He was neutered that week and needed to looked after a closer to make sure he would heal. She sent pictures of him playing with the other dogs and she said he gave her no problems. Will definitely use her again in the future.”
“ALWAYS A GREAT EXPERIENCE! Milo truly lovessss Stephanie and her sweet sweet dog Pugxy. He gets so excited to see them everytime and I know he has so much fun playing when he is there. Stephanie ALWAYS sends pictures throughout the visit and wipes him down and gives him a bandana before he leaves. She is such an amazing sitter, I am glad I found someone I can trust my baby with. I would reccomend her to any and everyone I know. Thank you again!!”
About: As lifelong dog lovers, we know how important it is to feel confident leaving your pets in someone else’s care. We had two sweet dogs of our own for 14 and 12 years, and they were truly part of our family. Spoiled , loved, and very well cared for. We understand that every dog deserves patience, attention, safety, and lots of love while their owners are away. Your pup will be welcomed into our home like one of our own, with plenty of care, affection, and a comfortable environment to help them feel safe and happy. Pet care naturally fits into our daily routine because we genuinely enjoy having dogs around and caring for them. We’re home every day and used to structuring our days around feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and giving dogs plenty of attention and affection throughout the day. Our home is calm, safe, and pet-friendly, and we understand the importance of consistency and routine for dogs while their owners are away. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I always focus on making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand that every pet has their own routine, personality, and needs, so I do my best to keep things consistent and stress-free for them while their owners are away. In my home, pets will have a calm, clean, and welcoming environment with plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and affection throughout the day. If caring for pets in a client’s home, I’ll respect their space while making sure their pets stay comfortable in their familiar routine and environment. My goal is always to care for every pet as if they were my own.
“Ryan and his family are lovely people and took excellent care of my dog. They have a young Aussie who was also sweet and my dog came back to me very relaxed and happy (and very tired after all the fun!). Ryan offered to bathe my dog after he got dirty on a hike, which was very thoughtful. He sent frequent photos and kept me in the loop with everything, which put me at ease after having a poor experience with a previous Rover dog sitter. I couldn’t recommend this family enough! Thank you Ryan and family!”
“Mrs. Tara was absolutely amazing with our baby Kora! She was so kind and attentive, and had no problem accommodating Kora’s special needs. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Kora was in such great hands. Her communication was great — she kept us updated with messages and pictures throughout the stay, which we really appreciated. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Bailey is our go-to person for Nero! She takes excellent care of him and always keeps us updated. We are very grateful to have found someone we can trust and count on whenever we need someone to watch him. ❤️🐕🦺🐾🦴”
“Tiffany did a wonderful job with our Evie. She sent regular updates and pictures throughout the week. Her home was very tidy, and she made a special space for Evie. When we picked her up, her kitty box had been cleaned, and all of her belongings were well organized. Evie is very shy, but she seemed to do well at Tiffany's home. We will definitely use her again, and we recommend her highly.”
“I am a return customer because Tevin has my trust with my dog! She always has a lovely time at Tevin’s. I highly recommend for when you need someone to care for your fur baby while you’re away!!”
“Amy is awesome, had a last minute pivot in travel plans and she was easy to communicate with and understanding of our situation. It’s been hard finding a dog sitter in my area who we can trust. She sends updates, and photos which always settles us when we’re away.”
About: I have been in the dog grooming industry for 20 years. Currently own a grooming salon in Buford for 8 years! I have worked in boarding facilities and veterinarian offices and currently offer pet sitting for my grooming clients. I usually work 4 days a week at my Salon that just just 10 minutes from my home. I am able to take dogs back and forth, if needed. Or set up a pen with all the comforts, while I'm gone. I do need as much notice as possible, as some weekends may not be available. But feel free to ask last minute! I have a fenced in yard and 2 friendly, young dogs of my own. I kennel pups if I am not home, but also have an open top pen if anyone is not a fan of kennels.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Oakwood
Dan was wonderful with our dog! He was very communicate, followed all instructions we provided, and created a very comforting environment. Our dog has thunder phobia and shakes a lot, and Dan did a ton to help make him feel better and calm his nerves. We didn’t have to worry at all the entire trip that our pet was in good hands! We will gladly ask for Dan’s services in the future again!
My house and pups were in the best hands! She went above and beyond to keep everything clean, organized, and running smoothly while I was away. My dogs were happy, well cared for, and clearly loved. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing everything was taken care of. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Oakwood on Rover is $43.85 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,182 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Oakwood. 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 Oakwood 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 Oakwood 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 Oakwood 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 Oakwood.
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 Oakwood 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.
