“This was my puppy’s first time away from me and she was very shy and probably nervous. Judith was so sweet and understanding with her. She was constantly communicating with me and sending pictures and videos. This was also my first experience with Rover and it was a great one.”
“5 stars all the way! Benjamin took care of our senior dog on a recent trip to st simons. She is on tons of meds I clouding eye drops and required a lot of special attention. Benjamin was on top of it and never missed a pill or treatment. He took her on nice walks ans between him and his girlfriend gave her lots of loves and pets. His little dog Millie is super sweet ans friendly and just loved on my Rana too! Even though Rana is shy with other dogs they immediately hit it off and I think the visit was good for her! I will definitely book Benjamin again. Very friendly, professional and responsible!”
“Our dog Rusty had a wonderful time with Brett and Sandra He played with their puppy Jack and other puppy guests. They offer a wonderful yard for play and exercise. A beautiful screened porch for lounging and all the comforts a dog needs inside their home. They are the nicest people and you just know your dog will be well taken care of. We will definitely call on Brett and Sandra to care for Rusty when we have the occasion to do so.”
“It’s not easy to find a sitter for two big dogs. We really appreciate you making it possible for us to travel knowing that our babies are safe and being cared for.”
“Ashley was wonderful with our girls. She read their personalities perfectly, and sent lots of photos during their stay. We very much appreciated her care and attention. When back in the area we would definitely love to have our pups stay with her.”
“Marisol was FABULOUS! She treated my Remington like her very own. She clipped his nails while he was there and cleaned his dog bed and bowls before sending him home :) He slept for 2 days after his stay so I know she successfully wore him out! (Which is hard to do with a border collie!)”
“Melanie is the greatest! She was so accommodating, extremely easy to communicate with and she provided daily updates with several photos. We are looking forward to our next trip soon and Melanie will be who we call again!”
“Sydney is very friendly and reliable. She was flexible with the schedule, and perfect location. I am sure Bella had a great time with her. For sure I will ask her to sit my puppy again. Thank you so much Sydney!”
“It was my first time using Rover.com app for Boarding Services for my 8 month old Labadoole, Rusty, while I travelled internationally. I was a bit apprehensive, since Rusty can be a handfull with energy to burn. Gabby ressured me Rusty will be fine, she's had plenty of experience with Labadooles. I must say, I was impressed when Gabby texted me advising Rusty was vomitting and having diarrhea. We came up with a plan to eliminate the food toppers & treats & only provide Rusty the dry food, and it worked. Rusty was fine after a few hours. Gabby kept in communication with me, sending videos & pictures of Rusty, which made me feel much better Boarding Rusty with Gabby. I would recommend Gabby for your Pet Boarding Service, and I would definiately use her service again.”
“Tracy is the best! She took such good care of my dog, Will, he thinks he was at doggie camp! He had the run of the yard, got along well with other dogs, played his favorite games, took long walks. Excellent communication. Tracy sent frequent updates and photos, let me know how he was doing everyday. I had an extended unexpected travel delay, and Tracy was just great! I highly recommend her, and I definitely hope she’ll be able to take care of my Will the next time I travel.”
About: I have been caring for a variety of animals for over 30 years. I have owned several breeds of dog, to include Doodles, Labs, and Dobermans. I owned/operated a small hobby farm where I had chickens, rabbits, and bees. I currently have a German Sheppard and a cat. I love animals of all sorts and would love to help you care for yours! I have a very flexible schedule and am able to be with your pet for most of the day. I tailor my schedule to your needs as a pet owner. I have a large yard for your pets to explore and we go on nightly walks to burn off that energy. I have a dedicated dog room and crates for those that are crate trained.
“Yvonne took wonderful care of our kitten in her home. She sent us pictures and updates. Her home was lovely and she was super nice. We would definitely board with her again.”
“Jennifer and her family are so sweet!!! I felt totally comfortable leaving my 2 furkids with them!!! I think one of my dogs wanted to stay there permanently lol. Highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Kristine watched our border collie during 4th of July. Our pup is scared of fireworks but Kristine put in extra care and work to make sure she was more than comfortable during that time. She took her to play at the beach, sent great pictures and was very communicative. It’s clear Kristine is extremely knowledgeable with all types of dogs. Definitely will be having Kristine watch our dog again, my husband and I both recommend you book with her!”
“Once again Eboni has been a tremendous help to us by taking care of our Labradoodle once again. It’s always a pleasure to leave our dog in her care. She’s been updating us and sending us videos while we were away. She teaches him new commands and just overall spoils him and he enjoys his time with her and her family! Thank you Eboni!”
“Giovanni did excellent with my reactive GSD. He was patient, understanding, and did excellent with her. She had so much fun, he sent plenty of pictures and updates, and she came back super tired! Definitely would recommend and trust him with your furry babies. We will be using him again!”
About: Hi! I understand how important your pet is to you. We have two yorkies, Tyson and Wyatt, that are our children! We provide a caring, safe and active home for pups. Because we have two small dogs, we do prefer to sit for small dogs, under 15 pounds, to ensure everyone is safe. Our yorkies have gotten along with all dogs that they have been around. They love to play but quickly learn their boundaries. They are spoiled rotten with attention and your dog will be too! I work from home full time so there is usually someone always here to let them outside several times a day. If we go out we do put our pups in a pen I do keep my pups in a pen while I work and when we leave the home to ensure they are safe... and don't have accidents in the home!
About: I have been a dog mom my whole life! I grew up on an animal rescue farm while also volunteering at an animal shelter. I then worked at a dog boarding facility (Pet Paradise) in college so I have endless experience caring for all kinds of pets and farm animals. I am a mom to a 17 year old American Bulldog, 11 year old Corgi, 3 year old tripawd pup and a 21 year old tarantula. I work from home full-time M-F 9-5 with minimal an flexible meetings (also my husband is home by 2pm each day). This means I have plenty of time to care for your fur babies and keep them happy while you enjoy your time away! I have more than a 1/4 acre of privacy fenced yard with trees and squirrels to chase. I also have 3 sweet dogs to make you pup(s) comfortable when they are staying with me.

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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Saint Simons Island 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 Saint Simons Island.
<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 Saint Simons Island 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.
