“Cynthia did a great job taking care of my puppy Ringo. She gave me a lot of updates and pictures on him and she took him last minute which was amazing. I would recommend her to all my friends and family and I will definitely be using her again!!”
“Katie was an absolute pleasure to work with. She and her family clearly love dogs and provided exceptional care for Bella. She was flexible with the unique nature of our travel plans and timely with our communications. The photo and video updates gave us comfort in seeing that Bella was in good hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Katie again and highly recommend her as a Rover sitter. Five stars. Thank you Katie.”
“I couldn't have asked for a better experience as Jillian, and her family made my pups feel like part of the family right away. Thank you again for taking such great care of them, and allowing me to travel without worry!”
“Kelly was outstanding! I am so happy to have found her through Rover. Her description gave lots of detail about the effort she makes to give the dogs a safe and peaceful environment. I felt at ease from the moment she met us at the door with another dog tucked away so that our dog could get acclimated to her new surroundings first. Kelly was very good about sending us photos and updates throughout Pearl’s stay to keep our minds at ease, and I know she gave Pearl lots of snuggles. When we picked her up, she was her usual happy self. I definitely want to use Kelly again next time we are in the area. I feel confident recommending her to any pet parent!”
“Tanya has a positive vibe. Her place was really clean. She asked all of the appopriate questions showing she was attentive to Tito's need. Would recommend and use again.”
“Rocky enjoyed his stay with Kim and her family. I was able to take Rocky the night before to get acquainted with the house and her family. Kim puts you at ease and you can easily tell she loves animals. Rocky felt right at home and her sons made him feel like part of the family. It was great not to have to worry if Rocky was in good hands. Kim even sent updates/pics each day of the stay. I would use Kim again without hesitation.”
“Oh my goodness Stevee is amazing! We are beyond thrilled that we found her! Our Chewie just adores her and comes home happy! Stevee is so wonderful in sending pictures of Chewie and Blueberry every day and we are so grateful!”
“Katherine was so amazing with our pups. She replied quickly and was on top of everything. Her two dogs are very sweet. She has a great fenced in backyard for the dogs to run and play. Our dogs didn’t want to come home! Would definitely recommend her.”
“Wow what a wonderful experience with Alice and her family. My girls had a great time and I felt completely comfortable leaving my fur babies with Alice and family. Her boys were just wonderful playing nicely with Jade and Claudette. I would absolutely use them again and again. Thank you Alice.”
“Had a family medical emergency and Anita jumped in to help. Within a few minutes, she was at our house, picking up Rascal and his traveling accessories. Anita sent constant photos and videos of Rascal...on his vacation ;). Anita's help gave the family time to work through the medical issues without the worry of "who's got the dog?" I would hire Anita and family again and highly recommend. Anita was kind and understanding of our situation. Especially thankful, as we reside in Florida - so the logistics of finding help was a challenge.”
“We are grateful for the care our dog Kolby received from Maria and Kenneth. We had a last minute change in our grooming/ boarding plans and needed assistance- they welcomed him with open arms! Our dog is usually slow to warm up to people, but he connect with them almost instantly which speaks volumes to their energy and care. Not only was he well cared for, but he came back fresh and happy! If you are looking for sitters who will treat your dog like family, we highly recommend Maria and Kenneth. Thank you for your kindness, flexibility, and for treating Kolby like family.”
“Lorraine snd Flavia always take great care of my pups! They send videos throughout their stay and keep me updated. Shadow and Ace had a fun time on their vacation away from home!”
“Charity and her family are awesome humans. This was our first time “boarding” our dog. I put boarding in quotations because quite honestly, our dog got to be part of Charity’s family for the week, and it probably felt more like a spa and playful summer camp to our dog than boarding. We usually send our dog to stay with family or friends the one time per year we actually get to leave town. So we were anxious sending her off via Rover for our first time. Charity is super sweet, kind, clearly loves animals, and definitely knows how to handle them. Our anxieties were immediately at ease when we met her and her family. She further eased them with daily photo updates, and she even wiped our dog’s eyes with warm towels due to some allergies! Ya’ll, this dog had it better during boarding than she did on our farm. Our dog is a husky and though pretty chill for that breed, I’m 100% confident in Charity and trusting in all her abilities to handle and care for any pup. She loved on our dog like it was her own. She also was very flexible when our flight home was delayed and we had to extend an additional night. We certainly recommend her and would definitely use her again.”
“Sierra was great! It is my first time using Rover and I was nervous because our puppy is still young and we just got him in late November. Before Rover, he was at a doggy daycare and I am not a fan of how long they are in crates. Sierra was very communicative, send pictures and videos of our puppy and you can tell he was happy and well taken care of. She would also let me know when he was struggling (pee accidents) and we worked on it together. We are having Chip stay with her again! Thank you Sierra!”
“Sara was amazing! Daily updates and always let me know what my pup was up to! Made pick up and drop off incredibly easy and used a great way of introducing our doggies together! Will definitely use her again!”
“Angie was absolutely wonderful with Yadi from the very beginning. She was incredibly detailed, thoughtful, and communicative, which immediately made me feel comfortable and confident leaving him in her care. Her daily updates were fantastic, very thorough, reassuring, and always accompanied by lots of pictures. It was so nice to see how Yadi was doing each day and to know that he was happy, comfortable, and being so well cared for. Yadi is a big dog and can sometimes be strong on walks and pull, so I know he can take a little extra patience and confidence to manage. Angie handled him so well and clearly took the time to understand him, work with him, and make sure he felt loved and comfortable. It was obvious from the updates and pictures that she genuinely cared about him and treated him like one of her own. I also really appreciated how attentive she was to the little details and how much effort she put into keeping me informed. Knowing that Yadi was not only being looked after, but also getting plenty of attention, affection, and companionship, gave me such peace of mind while I was away. I’m so grateful to Angie for taking such wonderful care of Yadi. I would absolutely trust her with him again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, attentive, and dependable pet sitter. Thank you so much, Angie, for loving and caring for Yadi so well!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 Southern Oaks 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 Southern Oaks.
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 Southern Oaks 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.
