Rover's Retreats

Rover's Retreats is a home-based dog boarding and daycare service in Lula, Georgia, offering cage-free stays for small, medium, and large dogs. Dogs stay in a house instead of a row of kennel runs, with supervision around the clock. The setting is calm and personal. That tends to suit dogs who get anxious in loud, crowded facilities.

What will my dog do all day?

Every dog gets three 45-minute outdoor turnouts or leash walks each day. Outdoor time happens in a fully fenced yard with a wading pool and a gazebo for shade. Larger dogs also have access to a fully fenced acre, which gives them real room to run. Indoor play space covers wet or very hot days.

Where do dogs sleep and eat?

Each dog has a size-appropriate crate and an orthopedic bed for sleeping. Victor brand kibble is provided, so food is covered during the stay. Medication can be given as needed, which helps owners of older dogs or dogs on a daily routine.

What services are offered?

• Cage-free overnight boarding in a home setting
• Daytime dog daycare
• Grooming add-ons
• Medication administration
• Supervision 24 hours a day
