“Jackie was amazing and Bentley had a great time she sent me updates throughout his stay and we look forward to using Jackie‘s services in the future. Overall, Jackie was very accommodating communicated well throughout the entire boarding before and during. We would recommend Jackie for pet sitting/boarding services.”
About: I have been around dogs my entire life and wouldn’t have it any other way. Growing up, we always had at least two dogs in the family. At an early age I learned a lot from my uncle who trained dogs to assist the disabled and blind. I previously worked at a boarding/daycare facility for 3 years which gave me experience with a variety of dog breeds, sizes, ages, medications, health conditions and grooming. At the daycare/boarding facility we were trained to pick up behavioral cues from dogs. We were taught positive ways to enforce good behavior and correct unwanted behavior. I am very familiar with how to handle dogs with food and/or leash aggression. Prior to working at the daycare/boarding facility, I worked with rescue groups and helped foster dogs. I’m the type of person that can’t ignore a pup in need of love and care. I currently have 5 dogs: a Jack Russell/Chihuahua mix, miniature Dachshund, Yorkie, Morkie and Border Collie/Terrier mix. I am very experienced with dogs with special needs. In the past I’ve owned a dog that went blind, another one that had seizures and currently our Yorkie is losing her hearing and sight. I treat my dogs as if they are my kids. Be rest assured, I’ll treat your pup(s) the same! I currently work from home so I’ll be available to spend lots of time with your fur babies. This will allow them to have lots of steady potty breaks and be able to stick to any routines they’re used to. I have a fenced yard and my fur babies are friendly with other dogs so they’re sure to keep your dog company. I never leaves dogs together while unattended; they would be crated (if that’s what they’re used to) or separated just to be safe if I ever needed to step away for a moment. Your pet’s safety is my utmost concern and priority.
“Seriously fantastic. One of our pups was getting over an upset stomach issue when we dropped her off. Which means Sarah had to clean up some messes and we truly felt terrible about that. Sarah kept us up to date on how she was improving, and she took the extra care she needed which we are endlessly grateful for. Hopefully that never happens again, but we genuinely felt like Sarah handled it well.”
About: My parents had dogs before I was born so I have never lived without dogs. I share my house now with my two dogs, and I am very lucky to work from home where I can be with them all day. In addition, I spent many years volunteering with a local shelter where I was a dog walker, an adoption counselor, a foster dog mom, and assisted with training classes. If you have a dog care need outside of what I have set as what I will accept, contact me because I may be able to make exceptions on a case-by-case basis. My schedule revolves around my dogs. I have a secure, fenced-in yard and an enclosed porch, but they do spend most of their time indoors with me. When I am home, they go out every 3-4 hours, and if I am away, which is not often, I do not leave them for more than 8 hours. I am not scheduling for more than 3 months out, but if you have a specific date request beyond that, contact me and I can look at options. When I host your dog at my home, he or she will be treated like part of the family. I feed my dogs twice a day, and they go out every 3-4 hours when I am not home, or more often if needed. On sunny days, my dogs also enjoy laying on my enclosed porch where I have a few dog beds set up for them. The feeding and potty schedule for your dog is up to you, so please communicate that with me if it would be different from my own dogs. On the rare occasions where I need to leave for doctor appointments or family events, I would crate your dog, or alternately, secure your dog in a small room using a baby gate if you dog cannot tolerate crating. I have two bad shoulders, and therefore I do not walk dogs, but your dog would get plenty of play time with my dogs in my house and in my yard. While I try to not have dogs on the furniture, it doesn't always work out that way, but I do have multiple dog beds in every room of my home. I also have designated areas of the couch where my dogs are allowed. I would require you to bring a leash and your dog's food when you drop him or her off. In terms of in-home visits to care for your dog, I will be sure to let them out, feed them, make sure they have water, administer medications as required, and spend about 15 minutes with them in snuggles or playtime. As mentioned above, I have two bad shoulders so I am not able to walk your dog.
“Based on the photos and videos that were sent to me while I was on my trip… My dog looked very happy and well taken care of, and when I came back to pick him up, he barely wanted to go home, am I the problem? 🤣 will definitely be booking again!”
“Hayley did an amazing job with Titan! She responded quickly to communication and sent us frequent updates. In every photo and video, he looked just as happy as he typically does at home. We would absolutely use her again!”
“Sarah was amazingly flexible and kind. She is the first sitter I used with Rover and provided a great experience. Sarah sent pictures and answered all my questions. When I went to pick up my baby she 😩 barked at me and went back to Sarah before coming to me. THATS AMAZING!!! This speaks volumes of how much fun she had with Sarah. Definitely book with her!”
“We had an amazing experience with Megha while she cared for our 5 month old puppy during a week-long stay. She is professional, reliable, and truly great with dogs. I received daily photo updates and consistent communication, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. My dog looked happy and well cared for in every update! I especially enjoyed the belly rub video's!! It’s clear they genuinely love animals and take their job seriously. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter.”
“Jeana has kept Charlie a few times for us now and she always does a great job. She keeps us posted with pics and videos and updates on how Charlie is doing. I can’t imagine using any other sitter for Charlie.”
“Elizabeth was AMAZING! I could tell my baby was loved and well taken care of! She kept us updated with lots of pictures and was very attentive to all of Princes needs. We would definitely use her again in the future and recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter for their fur baby.”
“Russell was excellent with our fur baby. My dog has high energy. She is a very sharp girl but likes to jump and pull. After a few days with Russell she was listening much better. He even gave me a few tips. He also provided me with information of when she ate and pooped when I picked up. I will definitely rebook with him.”
“I really appreciate BobbieJo's handling of Murphy as she can be somewhat of a diva! BobbieJo is great with her and works with us on last minute bookings! Thanks for watching Murphy we will be back!”
“Our dog, Auggie, had a great time with Ivy and her family! He got tons of exercise and love and Ivy provided multiple updates and photos throughout his stay. We were able to arrange a meet and greet beforehand and knew right away that Auggie would be in amazing hands. We would definitely book with Ivy again and absolutely recommend her to anyone looking! 😊”
“This was my very first time using Rover. Upon meeting Melissa she was very kind. I explained to her about the needs of my Colby. She was very attentive and a great listener. She assured me that he would be fine in her care. During my 4 days away she sent photos which warmed my heart. Melissa followed instructions to perfection and when he returned to me it was as if I never left. He had no issues, exactly what I needed as a pickie dog owner. Melissa is very accommodating. I look forward to working with her again real soon and I believe Colby does too. Thanks Melissa for your professionalism and care for my Colby.”
“Danielle was an outstanding sitter! We needed a last-minute booking, and her flexibility made the entire experience easy and stress-free. She went above and beyond by providing amenities we weren't able to supply at the time. The biggest testament to her care was how relaxed our Frenchie was when returning home. Seeing him that calm means he felt safe, happy, and completely anxiety-free throughout his stay. We would not hesitate to book Danielle again and highly recommend her!”
“Our first Rover experience and it was great! Christina updated us with videos and texts throughout the visit. Our Gabby made new fur buddy friends. Christina’s pups are super sweet. I felt so much better leaving her with this awesome family than the typical kennel... and Christina was very accommodating as this was a last minute booking for the July 4th holiday. Thanks!!”
About: Hello, I grew up on a farm in Ohio with cows, horses, chickens, cats and of course dogs. I have had pets my entire life.

They bring so much joy. Thank you for visiting my page. I am retired so I have lots of free time! So I am looking for some fur friends! Animals bring joy to my life!❤️ Thanks!

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
97% of sitters in Rockmart 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 Rockmart 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 Rockmart.
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 Rockmart. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
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 Rockmart 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.
