Thank you so Much!!!!”
“Judith took such GOOD care of our fur baby!!! She went above and beyond. She sent frequent updates including pictures and videos, she gave our dog multiple baths because she was shedding, and she even got her some itch spray because she started itching while we were away. Judith was also very flexible with our needs before and during our dog’s stay. Can’t say enough great things and highly recommend!”

“Our One and a half year old puppy stayed with Jessica for a week. Jessica daily kept us posted on how he was doing And also shared his pictures with us. Will definitely use her services in the future, highly recommend!”

“Heather was amazing and incredibly accommodating. She graciously invited me into her home to make sure my pup was comfortable and kept me up to date with daily videos and pictures of my dog enjoying herself, completely releasing any stress for me of how she was doing. Amazing job and will certainly be using her services in the future.”

“Melanie was super accommodating and helpful for our wedding day dog care! Worked out very well for her to pop over to our wedding venue for some brief dog pictures. Very quick to respond and reliable!”

“Excellent care of my 2 pups. When I brought their beds in from the car they sniffed the sitters house for a while. The sent photos are like Glamor Shots and sent multiple a day. They were definitely spoiled during their stay. They have a large Mastiff, but he's a sweetheart. Would definitely recommend.”

“Staci went above and beyond, accomodating our request for a friend to pick up our pup for a few hours during the stay so he could make a guest appearance at our wedding. She sent regular updates and was communicative throughout.”


About: I’ve taken care of animals all of my life honestly. I was always told I had a “bee charm” because I’ve never had a bad experience with any animal, even ones others have labeled aggressive or unfriendly. I treat my animals like my babies. They’re people who just don’t speak English to me. I work in the restaurant industry so I don’t work long hours and I’m flexible. My sister is also a rover sister and she spends a lot of time at my house. I have a fenced yard in the back that my dog loves to sun bath in and do his business. I have a nice quiet neighborhood that we love to take walks around. My house is full of love. Me and my children love animals. Some would even say we baby them. My sweet boy sleeps at the end of my bed and when I leave I like to put on a movie or pandora so he doesn’t feel alone.

About: I pride myself on being a loving and attentive pet sitter! Some of the services I am able to provide are long peaceful walks around my neighborhood and reliable transportation for small adventures like the beach! I have ample time throughout my days to provide excellent care for your fur baby. I work from home so I am usually always avaliable. My mail priority with any animal is making them feel safe. Whether that means treats and warming up slowly at their own pace, or playing until they can't play anymore!
“Anna was amazing with my Shadow. You couldn’t ask for a better sitter than she is. I would highly recommend her to anyone for your animal sitting needs. She treats them as if they were her fur baby. I’m will be definitely using her again in the future.”
“Tracy was fabulous! She made the boys feel right at home. She provided many updates throughout their stay so we were able to see how much fun they were having. She has one dog that is the sweetest and most gentle boy that got along great with our babies. I highly recommend Tracy and we look forward to booking with her again. :)”


“Eboni is fantastic! She sent plenty of updates and photos during Cardi’s stay. She’s very attentive to parents and responded to all of my messages. Cardi had a great time in her care. Highly recommended!”


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!
“Gabrielle did great with my dogs Bentley and Roxy. It was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous, but she sent me pictures of my pups everyday which helped me feel better being away from them. If I need someone to take care of my dogs again, I will definitely reach out to Gabrielle.”

“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.”

“Yvonne did an awesome job taking care of Max. She sent pictures everyday letting me know how he was doing. She provided everything he needed to be comfortable at her house and I would highly recommend her to anyone to watch your pets.”

“We couldn't have found a better place for our pup to be! Austyn sent daily pictures and updates and our dog loved having such a big fenced in yard to play in! Great experience, will definitely be rebooking with Austyn !”

About: I provide attentive, high-quality in-home boarding with a focus on comfort, safety, and personalized care. My goal is to create a reliable, low-stress experience where your dog feels secure, cared for, and completely at home. Because I work from home, your dog will receive consistent supervision, companionship, and a calm, structured environment throughout their stay. A typical day includes a morning walk before work, lunchtime fetch and unlimited potty breaks. My husband and I share our home with two well-socialized, friendly dogs who are fully up to date on vaccinations and genuinely enjoy the company of other dogs in their fully fenced in backyard and a very friendly cat (that believes he is one of the dogs). I’m experienced in caring for pets for friends and family, and I approach every stay with the same level of care and responsibility I would expect for my own pets. Each dog’s routine is thoughtfully maintained, including daily walks, enrichment, and plenty of one-on-one attention. For dogs who enjoy the water, I also offer supervised swim time with owner approval.
“Jennifer did a fantastic job of taking care of our puppy and accommodating us last minute. She responded quickly and was very informative! I'm so happy we have found her. We will, without a doubt, continue to utilize her services. An added bonus, she has 2 dogs so it was nice that Duke was able to socialize and learn from the others! Lol”

“Kristine was an excellent host to our little Olive. She gave us photo updates and took great care of her. When we're back in the area, we'd definitely use Kristine again! :-)”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Saint Simons Island on Rover is $35.31 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 60 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Saint Simons Island. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter 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.
Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local 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 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.
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 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.
