“Olivia will be our go to person when we need a sitter if she’s available. She kept me informed and sent pictures during our trip. We were nervous since we haven’t had to leave Kelsi with anyone, but Olivia put us at ease. The quiet home atmosphere and Olivia’s warm personality was exactly what we were looking for. Kelsi was content and we will not hesitate to leave her again. Thank you Olivia for taking such good care of our senior lady. Do not hesitate using Olivia. Your loved one will be in good hands.”

“After a confirmed sitter bailed on us, we reached out to William very last minute. He was super responsive and thankfully everything worked out really well! Our dogs seemed very happy and well taken care of. I’m always very anxious about leaving my fur babies somewhere new, and this was actually my first Rover experience. William and his son were both super responsive and sent us pictures throughout our dogs’ stay, which was such a huge relief. We’re very thankful they were able to accommodate us on such short notice!”

“Kara was wonderful! This was our first time using Rover and I’m so glad we found Kara. Our dog had such a fun time with her dogs and family. She sent us photos of Saint during his stay. She was so responsive from the beginning all the way through. You can tell she loved on our Saint like she loves on her own family.”

“Gloria is very kind & my Loki had a great stay with her! I had never left him with anyone and was very nervous about leaving him with someone I didn't know at all but she is very genuine, kind, has the perfect setup for dogs. When we come back next year for my son's next graduation I will 100% be booking with Gloria again! Loki is a very sweet dog but sometimes he is very skittish of new people. He took up with her immediately and probably would have stayed from now on with her! Also, I have to say I booked very last second, late at night as my other plans fell through & she really bailed me out. I can't recommend her enough or articulate just how much of a blessing she was for my family during a very important trip.”

“Sandra and Mark were so amazing with my two babies that they didn’t even want to come home, seriously! Sandra even found treats that my picky eater actually likes. I’d give them 100 stars if I could. The communication was excellent and we were able to enjoy our trip to the beach knowing our babies were in good hands.”

“Mary Grace was a godsend to our family. Our beloved and notoriously mischievous 11 year old /70lb shepherd mix is prone to stress and can’t be comfortably boarded in a facility. He is also getting older, so he struggles with separation anxiety and requires frequent walks and intellectual stimulation. Mary Grace was a perfect fit. She is extremely competent and conscientious. She met both Ranger’s needs as a full time companion (walks, feeding, engaging) and my needs as a concerned parent (pictures, updates, etc). It’s the first time we’ve traveled in years that I was not constantly worried about Ranger. I would not hesitate to book with her again or to recommend her to others. She is amazing and I’m so grateful for how well she cared for our boy.”

About: Both my husband and I have grown up with dogs our entire lives. In my case, I was raised in a home with 6 dogs at once, so caring for multiple pets is second nature. We have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities — from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra care. Our responsibilities have included feeding, grooming, daily walks, and of course, lots of playtime and affection. We’re comfortable with high-energy dogs, shy or anxious pups, and everything in between. We currently have two dogs of our own and treat every dog we care for as part of the family. I’m a stay-at-home mom, so I’ll be home with the pups the majority of the time. This allows for plenty of attention, walks, potty breaks, and play throughout the day. My daily routine is flexible, and I can easily adapt to your dog’s needs and schedule. My husband also helps out in the evenings after work, so your pup will get even more love and care during that time. Your dog’s safety and comfort are our top priorities. We have a fully fenced yard for secure outdoor play and potty breaks. Inside, we have a designated dog room with air conditioning to keep pups cool and comfortable. If needed, we also have an extra room to separate dogs for rest, feeding, or personal space. We’re crate-friendly and can crate your dog upon request or according to their routine. Our home is both dog and toddler safe, with no access to hazardous items or unsafe areas. We treat every dog like part of the family, using gentle handling, positive reinforcement, and plenty of love and attention. We require a meet and greet before bookings to make sure all pups get along and feel comfortable. We want the experience to be a great fit for everyone. We’re also committed to keeping you updated with regular messages and photos so you feel confident and connected while you’re away.

About: Taken care of all animals different pieces and sizes! I live to go on runs so if your doggo needs some energy expenditure I can make that happen run usually span from 2 miles up to 13miles! My doggies run every other day and go to the dog park every day in between! Very quiet household! So if you need your doggies tired just let me know! Live in a large apartment so there is plenty of space for them to play but pets are taken out for runs and dog park pretty much every day.

“I have a lot of words for my experience with Alex, but one sums it up: "amazing! ". Alex has a way with pets and she won my anxiety-prone, older little dog over very quickly with her sweet and kind nature. I had no concerns while I was away traveling on a slightly extended trip with limited internet access. She reassured me with lots of pictures and feedback. (The pictures were so good, my husband and I will have to frame a few of them :). I would highly recommend Alex for your pet sitting needs and I would jump at the opportunity to book with her again. Thanks, Alex!”

About: Here to make sure your 4 legged family feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own, and always do my best to stick to their normal routine so they feel as comfortable and loved as possible. I work Monday–Friday, but my schedule can be flexible at times. If you need pet care but aren’t sure whether my schedule will fit your needs, feel free to message me! I’m always happy to help whenever I’m able. I have a fenced in yard and two friendly pups. I crate trained both of my dogs while they were potty training, so I also have a large crate available if that fits your pet’s needs.

About: I have about 3 years of experience when it comes to caring for dogs, and although my experience with animals is limited my love them has always been strong. I am currently working full time ,so I’ll only be available for drop-ins and walks. I am currently available Monday through Thursday from 5pm-10pm and Saturday and Sunday from 6am to 3pm.

“Mikayla was wonderful. She was very professional. She was always timely in her response and made sure to update with commentary & pictures on how my baby was doing! She was also very flexible and willing to compromise to the best of her ability. I will definitely be a returning customer. If you’re wanting someone who will treat your fur baby like their own, without any worries or concerns, Mikayla is the person you’re looking for. 10/10 would recommend ✨”

My pup stayed with Tyila and her family while I went on vacation. The drop off and pick up was smooth. Communication was wonderful. Polly has stayed here a number of times and I know she is well cared for and loved when she visits. Highly recommend this sitter. We will visit again soon.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Upatoi

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Upatoi is $42 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $34 and $51 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 180 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Upatoi. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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.

99% of sitters in Upatoi 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 Upatoi 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 Upatoi.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Upatoi. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 99% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

You and your Upatoi 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.

Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
