“Erica took our dog even though I reached out just a day before - she truly saved us and was very gentle and caring with our dog. My dog is traumatized after her first owners and her experience in the shelter, so she needs very delicate handling. Erica surrounded her with care and attention and sent me photos throughout the time our dog was with her. I highly recommend Erica as a dog sitter without any hesitation. I’m very grateful and will definitely reach out again 🤎”

About: I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and treat every pet like family. I'm reliable, patient, and attentive to each pet's unique personality and routine. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, medication reminders, or just extra cuddles and companionship, I'm committed to providing a safe, and loving experience. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident while you're away. I currently have an open schedule for the summer, which allows me to give pets the time, attention, and care they deserve. I also have two miniature dachshunds who are my little babies, so caring for dogs is already a big part of my daily routine. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, or cuddles, I'm flexible and happy to accommodate your pet's needs. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member because I feel the same way about my own two miniature dachshunds. I will follow each pet's routine closely, provide plenty of love and attention, and make sure they always have a safe, clean, and calm environment. In a client's home, I'll respect your space, follow all care instructions carefully, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
“Tetiana did a wonderful job! Aster was nervous with another guest puppy, trying to defend us (her mom and dad), while the guest pup was just being curious. Tetiana handled the situation wisely, and it calmed Aster down. She ended up getting along fine with other pups very quickly, snd for the rest of her stay. We definitely recommend her service. Thank you, Tania!”


“Christina was able to provide daycare to our Dachsund and Shetland Sheepdog on short notice. She met all our furbabies needs. They enjoyed their time with her and were excited to see her each day. We will return if in the area in the future.”

“Nina is amazing! She took great care of both our dogs. They can be difficult around other dogs, and one of them even recently had a diagnostic procedure requiring many stitches. Nina handles challenges like these well, communicate frequently, and is very easy to work with. I recommend her services without reservation”

“Emily took great care of our fur babies. She was really flexible with drop off and pick up times as our schedule was dependant on contractors working at our house. Emily sent lots of pictures and videos throughout the day. Wonderful experience.”


About: I grew up with a poodle and later was closely involved in a household that cared for a large number of show dogs in a structured, organized setting. This gave me strong experience with daily routines, behavior, and maintaining a calm, well-managed environment. Now I have a retired Shiba Inu — the friendliest you’ll meet. I work from home, so I’m able to provide consistent supervision and regular care throughout the day. Dogs follow a predictable routine with potty breaks every 2–4 hours, quiet indoor time, and outdoor time in a secure fenced yard. Your dog will stay in a clean, calm home with a fenced yard and a safe, structured environment. I keep the number of dogs limited to maintain a low-stress atmosphere and avoid overcrowding. Dogs are supervised, and I follow consistent routines to help them feel secure. For everyone’s safety, I accept calm, well-mannered dogs and recommend a meet & greet before first bookings. Crating can be used if needed, depending on the dog’s habits and comfort.

About: I have always loved animals and enjoy spending time caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to help with feeding, walking, playtime, and providing companionship. I understand the importance of keeping pets safe, comfortable, and following their routines. I am dependable, patient, and committed to giving every pet the attention and care they deserve while their owners are away. I am home most of the day, which allows me to provide flexible and attentive care for pets throughout the day. I have plenty of time for walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship.

I follow all instructions provided by owners, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, and house rules. I provide a calm, caring environment and pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and well-being. I will keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is receiving excellent care while you are away.
About: Your experience I’ve had pets for as long as I can remember and have cared for both dogs and cats throughout my life. I’ve owned around four dogs and three cats, including a Schnauzer, a Yorkshire Terrier, and mixed breeds. I’ve also helped care for family pets by feeding them, playing with them, keeping them company, and making sure they feel safe and loved. I truly love animals and enjoy being around them. Even though I currently don’t have pets because my apartment is small, I would be very happy to care for pets short-term and give them lots of attention, affection, and patience. I understand how important it is for owners to trust someone with their pets, and I would treat every animal like family. I’m currently very flexible and available most days of the week, which gives me plenty of time to care for, play with, and keep pets company. I can accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and short-term care depending on your pet’s needs. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. I live in a clean and calm apartment environment where pets can feel safe and relaxed. While I don’t have a private fenced yard, my apartment complex has pet-friendly walking areas and plenty of space for outdoor walks and exercise. There is also a plaza nearby that’s perfect for longer walks and outdoor time. I always pay close attention to pets’ behavior, routines, and safety, and I make sure they receive lots of care, affection, supervision, and patience while staying with me or during visits.
About: I am a 39 year old man with a remote job so I'm home all day. I have always had a dog in my house since I was a small child. I have trained my own puppies and also taken care of friends' and families' pets for years. I have .8 acres of a fenced-in yard and a neutered 1 year old Australian shepherd to play with your dog. Tambien hablo español si prefieres! I work from home so can take dogs out as often as necessary. For adult dogs, I usually let them out into my yard at least 5 times a day, or more if they need to go out or if it is a puppy or older dog. If the dog is in good health, we will go on at least one long walk in the neighborhood in the afternoon as well per day as well as playing with my dog in my yard. I have .8 acres of a fenced-in yard and a quiet neighborhood. We have a magnetic screen door so, once we make sure the dogs know how to open it, we let the dogs come in and out all day (weather permitting). My puppy would love to play with your dog all day in our yard and go for daily walks in our neighborhood. I'm happy to send daily photos/updates as you prefer.

About: With over 20 years of hands-on experience, I offer a level of intuition and patience that only comes from decades of care. I am uniquely qualified to handle "high-touch" pets; I currently share my home with three dogs, including one who is blind. This personal experience means I am expertly attuned to the specific safety needs, verbal cueing, and environmental consistency required for vision-impaired or special-needs pets. I provide a calm, steady presence. Having managed my own multi-pet household for two decades, I am deeply familiar with complex feeding schedules, medication administration, and the subtle behavioral shifts that signal a pet needs extra comfort or attention. My pet care routine is built on a seamless "team approach" with my husband. Because I work a teacher’s schedule at the school right across the street, I am home by mid-afternoon and have all holidays, breaks, and full weekends dedicated to your pets. During my school hours, my husband works from home full-time, ensuring your pets are never left alone and receive consistent companionship, potty breaks, and attention throughout the day. This setup allows us to provide a stable, supervised environment where your pet’s routine, whether it’s a midday walk or specific feeding time, never misses a beat. Your pets are treated like members of the family in our home. We have a large, fully fenced-in backyard where dogs can safely run, play, and socialize together under constant supervision. Whether it’s a game of fetch or a quiet sniff in the grass, there is plenty of room for everyone to burn off energy. To ensure a stress-free stay, we maintain a structured environment: Crate Training: My three resident dogs are fully crate-trained, which helps maintain a calm household. Flexible Sleeping & Breaks: I have spare crates available for visiting pets, or you are more than welcome to bring your own from home to keep your pet’s routine consistent. Safe Introductions: With over 20 years of experience, I carefully manage introductions to ensure all dogs are comfortable and compatible before group play.
About: I had a Yorkshire Terrier for 12 years until 5 years ago. I took care of daily walks, meals, and potty training every day. Now I live with a cat, and I’ve also learned how to train and care for cats. As a full-time homemaker, I am able to care for dogs and cats every day. I’m available on weekdays and weekends, so feel free to reach out anytime. I have one well-trained, curious, and energetic cat. Although we don’t have a yard, we can safely take walks within the spacious grounds of our apartment complex. For the sake of my beloved cat, I keep the indoors clean and hygienic at all times.
“As always, Winson enjoys his play day with Lindsay and Zoey! We certainly appreciate Lindsay for providing a reliable dog care service, for either just a day or a week.”

“This was my first Rover experience plus my dog’s first daycare experience and I was so nervous at first. Heather and her family took the absolute BEST care of my little guy! Multiple walks a day, slow & controlled introductions to new dogs, off leash freedom in their backyard wonderland and plenty of pictures and updates throughout! Thank you so so much! I’d absolutely recommend Heather to anyone needing a family that truly cares and puts extra importance on your dogs safety and comfort level.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Buford on Rover is $38.85 per day (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Buford 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.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 1,683 sitters in Buford, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
