“I just have to say James and his wife De are AMAZING! We just moved in to town and we’re looking for a dog sitter due to a long trip that we had planned prior to our move. I am always hesitant leaving my pups with new sitters, but during the meet and greet at James’ house, I was instantly set at ease. He reassured the pups would be well taken care of while we were gone and I have to say he went above and beyond. He sent multiple pictures throughout each day and sent message updates to let me know how they were doing. He even spoiled them with extra treats (asked me first of course) and I know they loved it! If you’re feeling any bit of hesitation leaving your pups with someone new I can’t recommend James enough! Even living about 50 minutes from where they are, I will definitely leave my pups with them again and know they are well taken care of. Thank you so much again James and De!”
“Linda took great care of my girl. She also sent pictures and videos to help ease my fears of leaving Bella for the first time with someone other than family. I could not have asked for a better person to watch Bella.”
“There are no words to express how happy I am with the level of care my Kane received while visiting with Felicia and her family. Kane was treated like a member of her family. Felicia is the absolute best. If you are looking for someone to take special care of your fur baby I highly recommend Felicia.”
“Hands down the best sitter I have ever had. Delmina was very informative of details throughout my fur baby’s stay. I could tell that she was at ease and enjoyed her time with Delmina and her family, so much so that I was a little jealous of the love they gave my baby. lol. I will for sure be booking with her in the future!!!!!”
“Valeria was quick to respond and suuuper helpful on a short notice! She has a lovely family who played with our pups and gave them plenty of love. So happy we could have someone reliable take care of them!”
“Love this laid back atmosphere where my very needy & spoiled lab can wonder in and out and all around this beautiful house and yet still b safe and contained. Very relaxed vibe with a very sweet caretaker. My boy has had 2 day visits and a 2 day/night over nighter and always comes back happy and tired. I would highly recommend this sitter.”
“Lania was great! She is super nice and always sending pictures of my puppy. She was contracted last minute and was really accommodating to my puppy. I will en bringing her back”
“Winter loves JR. He is our go-to person whenever we need we need to stay with someone overnight. He’s always so caring and sweet with winter that winter comes back home super happy and is always excited to see JR again!”
“There simply is no other place I would want to have my pets stay. These two are the best, they send the best updates and take good care of my pups. This last time when I dropped them off... they ran into Tom7Nikki's place before I could even say good bye.. this tells me they are comfortable with them and happy to stay. :)”
“Second time with Karen and her girls and she still amazes us with her outstanding care for our dog. Multiple pics and videos everyday, I’m so happy we found her a year ago and she was able to board our dog for our vacation! Thank you so much Karen!”
“Samantha was AMAZING for our dogs. We have a puppy and we’re very nervous about leaving him, and our Boston needs his own emotional support human so it was not ideal to leave him either…. They were both so well taken care of and we appreciate the love she gave our boys while they stayed with her!”
“I recently had the pleasure of having Jill watch my dog over the weekend, and I couldn’t be happier with her service. From the moment I met her, it was clear that Jill has a genuine love for animals and a professional approach to pet sitting. Throughout the weekend, Jill kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which really put my mind at ease. It was evident that my dog was not only well-cared for but also having a great time. Jill followed all my instructions meticulously, from feeding schedules to exercise routines, and even took the extra step to spend quality time playing and cuddling with my pup. When I returned, my dog was happy, relaxed, and well-groomed, a testament to the excellent care Jill provided. Her reliability, attention to detail, and warm demeanor truly make her stand out as a dog sitter. I highly recommend Jill to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring individual to look after their furry friends. I will definitely be booking her services again in the future!”
“Josh and Kerith took such great care of our fur babies and made sure to send us pictures every day. The looked like they were having the best time while we were on vacation.”
“Xionella was an angel. Our original sitter cancelled last minute and she was so quick to help us out. She's the only sitter who offered to meet at a dog park so our fur babies could warm up to her before we dropped them off. She was even kind enough to send us updates, photos, and video chat! I loved that she took them to the dog park, was extremely patient and understanding, and careful when administering our senior pup's meds and safety care. Will be back for future playdates with Groot!”
“Great experience! Ying did an excellent job keeping me updated throughout my dog’s stay. Communication was consistent, and the regular photos were especially appreciated. I felt reassured knowing my dog was in good hands. Would definitely recommend!”
“Estrella was great! She and her husband were so friendly and caring towards our dog. Their home is very clean and they are very careful when they have more than one dog.”
“Daphne and her family took great care of Captain. She was kind enough to let us meet prior to me booking his stay so I would feel more comfortable. From the moment we walked in, Captain couldn’t wait to play with her dog Scarlett. Daphne sent photos and updates regularly and I could tell he was very happy there. I will definitely book her again for my out of town trips. Thank you again!”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Rutledge on Rover is $29.97 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 552 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Rutledge. 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.
95% of Rutledge 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 Rutledge 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 Rutledge 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 Rutledge.
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 Rutledge 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.
