“I’m so grateful we found Richard! Our Sheepadoodle had started becoming a bit of a homebody—increasingly antisocial with other dogs, extra clingy with our family, and just overall board of his same surroundings. We’re knew he needed more socialization, but after a bad boarding experience elsewhere, I was hesitant about trying boarding or daycare again. From the moment we met Richard, his calm, easygoing demeanor immediately put both us and our fog at ease. Lately, our dog has been barking at strangers and usually takes a while to warm up to new people. This time was completely different. He settled right in, felt comfortable at Richard’s home, and genuinely seemed to have a wonderful time. This has been the best experience for us and our dog. Richard has a gift for what he does.”
“She was being very kind and nice to my dog even though she was a big trouble maker for a sure. She kept send photos to see how my dog was doing and will definitely visit her again in the future!”
About: I am a mother of 2 furry babies, Fluffy and Jini. I have had a love for animals since I was born! I treat all animals and pets as I treat my own, with compassion. I've raised multiple dogs that have been adopted by myself and/or family members all varying in size and breed. Since I was a child to now I’ve always had pets in the home. Now, I am a mother of 2 fur babies. My first is Fluffy, given to me at 2 months old. My second is Jini, adopted from the Humane Society at 11 weeks. I like going for long walks with my furry companions. I always make time during my days for playtime when a furry friend seeks amusement. We love to play tag, toss a ball around, play tug of war, and squeak toys. Whenever it's time to relax, my definition of Netflix and Chill consists of me and my fur babies snuggled up. I spoil my dogs so much that shop local at Hollywood Feeds and online at Chewy and Amazon for new treats and toys together. Dog walking- I can walk for as little as 5mins to as long as an hour as requested by owner; walking distance or going to the dog park is not an issue as long as the booking time permits. Drop-In Visits or House sitting- I am more than happy to check in on pets as if they are my own, I’ll feed pets according to specifications amount and times given and of course have we will have a little playtime. I can stay as needed and will accommodate accordingly. ** For House-sitting I am unable to stay in the house overnight so I do provide 3-4 visits throughout the day to accommodate their needs. From hours 7am-11pm Daycare & Boarding- All breeds and sizes are welcome! Furry friends must be potty trained as friendly with other dogs. Daycare hours are from 8am-6pm. Otherwise an extended stay charge will be added. I’m a full time pet care taker weather at home for daycare&boarding or out for regular visits with check-ins and walks. Sometimes I do need a bit of flexibility with time scheduling due to driving and other individuals. I follow guidelines of my clients as best to my abilities in their home. I always walk the pups on a leash and roam free indoors for playtime. I show each pup as much love as I do for and as my own.
“Suesan and her family kept our very energetic pup for about 8 hours. She sent updates during the day and Loki was very happy and tired after his stay so we know he enjoyed it. We would use Suesan to pup-sit again and recommend her and her family.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and have raised them from playful puppies through old age. About 10 years ago, while working as a nanny, I also cared for two energetic husky mixes — from daily walks and playtime to feeding and snuggles. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from the patience and training puppies need to the gentle care older dogs deserve. No matter their age or personality, I’ll love and treat your dog like my own. I work from home, so I’m available Monday–Friday from 8 AM to 5:30 PM. During the day, I usually take 2–3 ten-minute walks and also have time for play in my fenced-in backyard or plenty of cuddle breaks inside. On weekends, I offer boarding with drop-offs anytime after 8 AM on Fridays and pick-ups through 5:30 PM on Mondays. I have a fully fenced-in backyard with 6-foot privacy fencing and gates set up to keep dogs out of anything unsafe. Since I work from home upstairs, dogs will be gated with me so I can always keep an eye on them. If you have an older pup who shouldn’t do stairs, just let me know and I’ll happily adjust to work downstairs with them. On weekends, any errands I run are kept under 2 hours, and I can crate your dog if that makes you more comfortable. I also love sending picture and video updates so you can see how much fun your pup is having while you’re away!
“I’m really impressed with this dog daycare! The facility is clean and professional, and you can tell they take pride in maintaining a welcoming space. My dogs received proper care and attention from them, who were kind, patient, and truly seemed to love what they do. It’s clear that this is a safe environment where pets can play, rest, and feel comfortable. Highly recommend to anyone looking for reliable, caring daycare for their furry friend!”
“Lourdes is the best. Always communicates with you about the well being of your pets. You can tell that she really cares about animals and her profession. Glad we found her.”
“Asara was very sweet. She sent me several cute pics and updates about my pup during his stay. When I went to pick him up, he did not want to leave! I will definitely take him back.”
“Dominique was amazing! She helped us out last minute, just a few hours of advance notice. She was really sweet, nice, kind, and Simba loved being there and was very comfortable. Dominique kept updating us throughout the day and she made us at ease as well. Highly Recommend her.”
About: I have helped my brother take care of his Rover bookings in the past while he and I lived together. He and I took care of many different types of animals including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, rabbits, tortoises, and even a pot belly pig. My family has always been an animal loving family. We have always had at least one cat and/or dog in our homes. I currently live with my mother, and I recently had my dog cross the rainbow bridge, so I thought this would be a good way to help cope. I have a lot of love to give for your pet(s). My schedule is very flexible since I work independently, and my mother is widely available to help with boarding since she is retired. My mother does have a 4 year old cat that is friendly with other animals. I am the only one of the two of us that is available to house-sit and pet-sit. We are both happy to help give you the peace of mind and give your pet(s) the love and care that they deserve. As I said before, I am currently working independently which means I make my own schedule. I'm very flexible and can adjust my schedule on short notice if needed. As I also said, my mother is available to help me with boarding throughout the week since she is retired. We have a fenced in backyard and a pet friendly home since we have always had pets. Currently my mom has a 4 year old cat that is friendly with other animals. Not all of the animals in my pictures are mine. People have been trusting me with their pets for a long time.
“Lan is wonderful! I let Luci with her two years ago while visiting my mom in Georgia and was so lucky that she was available for this visit! I will be here much of the summer and Luci will be going to "Lan Camp" as often as needed!”
“Sharifah is AMAZING!!! Kennedy was exciting for doggy daycare every day I dropped her off. I received multiple updates pictures and videos throughout the day. My mind was at ease knowing that Kennedy was being cared for! If I could gate keep Sharifah I would😂🤞🏾😂 because she is simply wonderful with dogs! I will not hesitate to book her again! Thank you so much!!!!”
About: I have been helping family and neighbors taking care of their pets since I was a kid. Cats and dogs are naturally drawn to me. I work from home, so I have the freedom of dropping in as well as staying in your property to take care of your fur babies any time I always build trust with the fur babies first before starting the care. I make sure I dont startle any pet when I drop in, introduce myself to them with scent, and gradually get them comfortable around me before I start feeding, playing, walking, etc.
About: I’m at a stay-at-home mom with both of my kids out of the house for college/post-grad, so ever since a year ago, I’ve been taking care of my sweet 3 year old cavachon, Miko. I’ve been taking care of him like he’s my own baby, making sure he’s fed fresh food, taking him outside on walks regularly, and maintaining his great hygiene. Rest assured I can take your puppy on walks with the same level of attentiveness and love! Your puppy will be in great company with myself & Miko, who’s always very friendly with fellow puppies.

I have plenty of time to play with your puppy & take them on walks whether in our home's spacious yard or the park (my go-to park currently in Alexander Park!). I'm available for walks once a day every week. I have a fenced spacious yard and my own friendly and bubbly puppy to keep your puppy company, looking forward meeting you and your little one.
About: What sets me apart is my reliability, patience, and genuine love for animals. I have experience caring for pets of different ages and temperaments, including puppies who need consistency and training reinforcement, as well as senior pets who require extra attention, medication reminders, and a calm environment. I prioritize safety, communication, and making sure each pet feels comfortable and loved while their owners are away. I also provide regular updates, photos, and detailed care notes so owners have peace of mind knowing their pets are in good hands. I’m currently new to the area just relocated from the beautiful San Diego California. I’m enjoying then change of environment, weather but mostly the new fur buddies I’m making 😊 Trusted pet care ❤️ I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. This includes feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, exercise, administering medications if needed, and providing plenty of attention and affection. In a client's home, I respect the pet's environment and maintain their schedule while keeping owners updated with photos and messages. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a clean, safe, and pet-friendly space with close supervision, regular potty breaks, exercise, and lots of love and companionship. My priority is ensuring every pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for.

I work from home and am available at all times to care for the pups. My daily routine consists of a schedule completely dedicated to their care. I do end pickups and drop offs at around 6pm. This gives me plenty of time to get the pups all settled and comfortable for dinner and the evening activities as we prepare for bedtime a little later in the evening. I have set up my space completely dedicated to the pups under my care, complete with doggy gates between each room, clean beds for each pup and crates available to pups who are crate trained or who appreciate one as their safe place. Pups with refrigerated food/snacks have their own fridge. Bowls are hand washed after each use and sterilized in the dishwasher. I have a schedule that includes frequent potty breaks, each meal time, rest after meals to allow time for digestion, indoor and outdoor playtime and activities depending on weather. Examples are, ball pit, pool/splash pad, puzzles, sniff and find, fetch, tug of war, cuddle time and more. I also offer pup cups and stuffed kongs.
“Nichell was amazing with my dog Mila! She sent me lots of pictures and gave me daily updates, which made me feel so comfortable while I was away from her. It was clear Mila was in great hands and getting so much love and care. I definitely recommend booking with Nichell. 10/10!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Allendale
Asara is a kind human who genuinely cares about dogs and making sure they have a good experience at her home. We booked two doggy daycare days to see how our newly adopted pup would do spending time away from us. She is kind, so communicative and considerate and made sure he is comfortable and well-adjusted! We were given tons of photos and videos of his socializing with other dogs she took care of, and so grateful she has assisted in socializing him at her home. Thanks so much Asara! :)
I’m so grateful we found Richard! Our Sheepadoodle had started becoming a bit of a homebody—increasingly antisocial with other dogs, extra clingy with our family, and just overall board of his same surroundings. We’re knew he needed more socialization, but after a bad boarding experience elsewhere, I was hesitant about trying boarding or daycare again. From the moment we met Richard, his calm, easygoing demeanor immediately put both us and our fog at ease. Lately, our dog has been barking at strangers and usually takes a while to warm up to new people. This time was completely different. He settled right in, felt comfortable at Richard’s home, and genuinely seemed to have a wonderful time. This has been the best experience for us and our dog. Richard has a gift for what he does.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Allendale commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
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.
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 .
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
