“We had a wonderful experience with Amelia, not only because she could take care of Doggy during Christmas Holidays, which is not really easy to get, but also because she is the most amazing pet lover you could ever find. Doggy wouldn’t have been happier and more comfortable than he was while staying with Amelia, she treated him as a pet of hers, with the same love and dedication just as much as with her own pets. During our days out of the country, Amelia kept us updated everyday regarding Doggy’s activities and mischief, she shared with us pictures and videos, we realized that fortunately Doggy was not missing us at all!! Thank you Amelia!”
“I was very impressed with Rebekah, she is awesome. I could not have asked for any better sitter for my dogs. I will continue to use Rebecca and let other people. I know that they're looking for a sitter for sure.”
“Bailey was great with Blizzard and provided daily updates and photos which made my family so happy while we were away from him. She even accommodated a pickup on Christmas Day so he could be back with us on Christmas which was amazing!! We will definitely use Bailey again!!”
“JR took such great care of our baby 😀 He is diligent on asking questions about Theos care that we felt he was like family. Could tell dogs bring him great joy and Theo loved all the attention. Thank you JR!”
“I was so worried about leaving my dog with anyone. I met Jonathan and one of his dogs at a park and his calm demeanor put my dog at ease right away. He definitely understands dogs. Within minutes of dropping my dog off at his house on the day of boarding, Jonathan sent me a video of the dogs which put my mind at rest. I had numerous photos and reports throughout the two days. I now have someone who is kind, capable and thoughtful that I can trust to leave my big guy with. Thank you, Jonathan, for being a welcoming host! Thank you, Rover, for working with such a quality person!”

“Max had so much fun at Adrienne's playing with all of the animals and running around in her fenced in yard. Adrienne was great about responding to all of my questions right away and keeping me updated about Max. She was also extremely flexible with pick-up and drop-off, which was great! Max didn't want to leave! We'll definitely be back at Adrienne's next time I have to go out of town.”
“Beverly and her family were awesome with Rex. They treated him like one of the family. We were also sent cute pics of him during his stay. 10 out of 10 would most definitely recommend!”
“If we could give 100 stars we would! Our Baby boy Jaxxson is our fur-son and we have been on the search for someone that would give us comfort when we travel in knowing he is in excellent hands and safe. Delmina and her Husband did just that! This is a beautiful family and they treated our baby boy like royalty. We received so many pictures and videos that we almost felt like we were there with him. We can’t say enough great things about how well this stay went. You won’t be disappointed with how she cares for your pet!”
“Anita was very attentive to my Rhodesian Ridgeback puppy. She took him on multiple walks during the day and kept me updated on how he was doing by sending me photos. Thanks Anita!”

My precious dog Zena enjoyed every moment with Avery. She kept me updated with multiple pictures and text messages. She even gave Zena a bath before I picked her up. This was my first time using this app and I found the perfect person for my fur baby. I will definitely be letting people know about your amazing work Avery.
Maura took such great care of Bailey! Bailey was able to play, sleep, and cuddle comfortably during her stay. Maura sent updates and pictures throughout her stay. She was great at communicating. It was so great to be able to be away and not have to worry about my pup because she was so well taken care of!

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Watkinsville on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 432 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Watkinsville. About 91% of Watkinsville sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.

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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
