“Let me start with Rosie Mae is a 7 month puppy with lots of energy. She was not fully house trained and a finicky eater. It was the first time I had to leave her and I was a little worried. James and his wife was very patient with her. They text me and ask if he could try different kinds of foods with her to see if she would eat. I got updates and pictures about Three time a day. They made it a lot easier leaving her. If you need a ONE sitter use James . HE IS THE BEST !!! ,”
“Rocky seemed like he instantly connected with Rebekah and her family, which made me feel comfortable leaving him. I would definitely recommend her and plan to use her services again.”
“I’m so glad we found Linda! After the meet and greet we booked a day stay so Charlie and Aiden could really get acquainted. Linda is so kind and patient and really has a knack for working with dogs. Don’t kennel your dog(s), Bring them to Linda, she’ll love on ‘em while you’re away.”
“Joey was awesome! Easy going atmosphere with a large fenced in backyard....My dogs loved it there....Joey and Terry were easy to work with and had great customer service. Highly recommend!”
“I am thrilled to recommend Katie for dog care services! They took exceptional care of my fur baby, Dior and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Katie was: - Prompt and reliable - Clearly passionate about animals - Attentive to my dog's needs and preferences - Great at sending updates and photos My dog was happy, healthy, and well-exercised when I picked them up. I couldn't ask for more! If you're looking for trustworthy and compassionate dog care, look no further than Kathie. "I'll definitely be using her services again!"”
“This was our first experience with boarding the pups. We were nervous and didn’t think we could find someone to care about them and treat them the way we do. Josh and Kerith exceeded all expectations. My dogs were happy and well taken care of. I received multiple updates per day along with pictures. They even have a dog friendly/accessible pool. That’s where my lab spent most of the week. If you want your dogs to have their own vacation while you’re away on yours, send them to Josh and Kerith.”
“I left our dog, Paddy, in Miriam's care for the first time this past week, and am absolutely delighted by the loving care he got. When I first met Miriam, and her husband, at the Meet and Greet ahead of time, I could see their huge hearts for dogs (and cats) in their care. Their home is a welcoming and safe environment and Paddy took to it right away. Miriam understood his specific needs and gave him the attention he loves. He actually played with their little dog in their wonderful fenced in yard ; an opportunity he doesn't have at home (no other pets & no fenced in yard). I loved the pictures and messages she sent about how he was doing. I wholeheartedly recommend her and will definitely leave Paddy in her care again - without reservations and without worrying about him! A great experience!”
“Mika really saved the day!! She was available last minute, and made the entire booking stress-free. A natural caretaker, and I can tell my dog and others enjoyed being in her care. Tons of pictures and updates. I’m so grateful for her services and kind spirit. We will definitely be booking again, soon!!”
“I have the best experience with Delmina she was so nice and helpful my dogs were very happy with her and her beautiful family she keep them overnight and I receive a lot of pictures and videos really good communication I will definitely keep her for future plans”
“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!”
“Daphne took great care of my PrinceyPooh! I had a trip for 6 days, she kept me updated each day with photos and check-ins of my dog and was very impressed with him. Daphne has a gift and I only wish I found her sooner. My dog will never step foot inside a PetSmart boarding again. Daphne is just that good 😊. She loves taking care of the dogs and it shows! Definitely blessed to have found her. My dog had a GREAT time while I was away and he has separation-anxiety super bad. My dog took onto Daphne as she was me and for that I am grateful. Thank you Daphne! Book with her!! 😊”
“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!”
“Diana was wonderful. I appreciated that she accommodated our situation on short notice and made modifications so that my dog was as comfortable as possible. Appreciate her flexibility.”
“Where do I start with how AMAZING and caring Lania was. There was a hiccup on during Peanut's stay (at no fault of Lania) and she was so understanding and sweet. When you are 14 hours away, you don't want to worry and I'd trust Lania if I was half way around the world. I'm forever grateful that she was so understanding and Peanut was well cared for.”
“Such a wonderful sitter and person. This is the third time we have had her take care of our dog Scout,and it could not have gone better. Multiple pictures and updayes everyday. She is the best!!”

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 Rutledge 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 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.
<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 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.
