“Oliver had such a great time over there. I feel like he enjoyed his Christmas vacation because of his new buddy Sadie and the warm welcome of the entire family. I really appreciated the daily updates and check in’s. Made me feel better about leaving my puppy with someone that would take care of him so well.”
“Usually Zhan can sometimes be a handful and gets some bad separation anxiety. Not only does he get a lot more social interaction with other puppers than usual, Jessica provides great care and great photos of how he's doing. It's not only going above and beyond expectations but I couldn't be happier with the service and based on Zhan's expressions on his face, he's going to be excited when coming back. 5/5 would recommend to anybody without hesitation!”
“Jade and her family were wonderful with our Fritz! He fit right in with her family. She sent lots of pictures abd updates, he loved it there, which put us at ease. Highly recommend and appreciate her!!”
“Cristina is lovely! We always hope that she’ll be available and willing to take in our high energy wheaten terrier when we go away. There are always other dogs around so we know everyone has plenty of play time. Cristina conducts meet and greets with everyone so all the dogs are compatible and get along safely. She has crates available but also lets the dogs lounge on couches and outside. She checks in with pictures and is always super responsive when we communicate. We know our dog is well taken care of whenever we leave him in her care. Thank you, Cristina!”
“Debra was amazing! She was very communicative the whole time and our dog loved staying with her. She even taught him a new trick! 10/10 will be calling her when we need a sitter in the future 🥰”
About: I am a lifelong animal lover and have been pet sitting for friends and family for the past 5 years. My family currently has a 6 year old German Shepard Mix, so i am comfortable with larger dogs. I will treat your pets like they are part of my own family and keep you updated with lots of photos and messages so you can have piece of mind. As a stay-at-home mom, I have a very flexible schedule and spend most of my day at home. This allows me to give your pet plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and companionship throughout the day. Your pets safety and comfort is one of my top priorities. We have a clean and comfortable pet-friendly home with a fully-fenced in backyard. We also have a 7 month old baby at home, so i am very mindful of creating a calm and safe environment for both pets and our little one. I will follow your pets normal routine and any instructions you provide regarding feedings, walks, and special needs. My goal is for every pet to feel comfortable and loved while in our care.
“Bambi took great care of my 3 dogs and all their special needs. Not one issue and I’m so grateful she gave me the peace of mind knowing my pups are well taken care of. Will be booking with Bambi again. Thank you so much!”
“Michelle did a fantastic job watching Moose for several days. He loved running in the fenced in back yard. She sent photos everyday. We will deffinantly use her again.”
“Leigh was amazing with Scruffy during his 6-day vacation this month. Scruffy loved hanging out with her and her two sweet pups. Leigh sent daily updates about all of the fun Scruffy was having. Thank you for the peace of mind you gave us, Leaigh!”
“Janine did a great job and sent updates while I was away on vacationfor a few days. My pup was comfortable and had a great time playing with her pets too. I would not hesitate to book again.”
“Our dog is very nervous when she is in new environments but with Theresa she was very calm when we picked her up. You can tell she loves dogs and I guess the dogs feel that also.”
“Stephanie and Devonte were amazing! They were so incredibly kind and were able to help us during a last-minute time of need. We had a medical emergency and they were able to take our Mila girl, care for her and love on her which gave us so much peace of mind. Thank you both immensely. We couldn't be more grateful for your help and flexibility! We hope to bring her back again, but hopefully no emergency the next time. 😬😅”
“Loved RoseAnn!! My little Riley felt right at home immediately and was so calm when I picked him up! I don't think he was ready to come home yet, LOL! I know he was loved and well taken care of! Will defintely use her again.”
“Pamela did an amazing job caring for our fur baby. She kept us updated throughout the stay with photos and messages. Our puppy had a great time. Already re-booked for a second stay.”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received! Thaleia kept me updated with photos and videos throughout the 10 days, and I always felt my dog was in great hands. When I picked the dog up, it was clean, happy, and clearly well cared for. Absolutely recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“Corey was absolutely wonderful! She took such good care of my girl, kept me updated, and sent me so many pictures of her having the best time! I will absolutely continue to book with Corey and I know my pup cannot wait to go back!”
“Here’s a draft for your Rover review of Alexis: Alexis was fantastic with my dog on short notice! She took great care of my pup and made me feel at ease by sending frequent updates and adorable pictures. I could tell my dog was happy and well cared for.

Jessie was absolutely amazing! She was an amazing communicator, so I never had any reason to worry about our pup while we were on vacation. Her dogs are so sweet and great with others. I think my dog actually learned a thing or two from them! I will absolutely be booking with Jessie again when we need a pet sitter.
Bambi took great care of our little baby. We were so grateful for her to step in when we needed a last minute sitter. He was so excited about meeting his new doggy friends and playing with them. He was so exhausted and slept the whole night and the next day. Definitely will rebook!
Heather was amazing and took the best care of my pups! I’d been worried about leaving them, as one has been a bit anxious lately, but she cared for them as if they were her own! I got pictures and updates daily, which helped put my mind at ease. Heather also answered many of my questions when meeting her before I even asked, which was the biggest selling point for me. My pups came home tired and happy- would definitely recommend!
Katie is amazing! Her and her husband took the best care of our Millie girl. She was constantly communicating and kept me informed. I got several pictures. This is also the first time that I truly relaxed when leaving her with a Rover sitter. I knew she was being taken care of and loved the same way I do it! I will definitely use them again!!

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.
97% of sitters in Richmond Hill 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 Richmond Hill 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 Richmond Hill.
<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 Richmond Hill 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.
