About: With over 30 years of experience caring for dogs, loving animals has always been second nature to me. I’ve had dogs my entire life—they’ve never been “just pets,” but true members of the family. Creating a safe, loving, and happy environment for them brings me so much joy. I’m home during the day, which allows me to give your pet plenty of attention, playtime, and care throughout their stay. It would truly be our pleasure to welcome your furry family member into our home and treat them like one of our own while you’re away. Pet sitting fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I’m home throughout the day and have a flexible schedule. This allows me to give your pet consistent attention, plenty of potty breaks, playtime, and lots of love. I enjoy a peaceful home environment, which makes it easy to provide a calm, comforting space for pets to feel safe and relaxed. Whether it’s sticking to a routine or giving a little extra TLC, I’m able to be fully present and attentive to each pet’s unique needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. While I don’t have a fenced yard, all outdoor time is closely supervised to ensure your pet stays safe at all times. Inside, my home is a calm and welcoming environment where animals are truly treated like part of the family. I have one large, friendly dog who enjoys the company of other pets and helps create a playful atmosphere. I provide care where your pet will receive lots of love, attention, and personalized care in a safe and cozy setting.
About: Hello! I am the owner and operator of Mindful Mutts LLC, a dog training business that serves Middle Georgia. In addition to my dog training services, I also routinely offer the pet care services listed below. For more information on our training programs please visit: MINDFULMUTTSDOGTRAINING . COM SERVICES AVAILABLE: Subject to Change + DAY CARE; Your pet spends the day in my home but returns home with you for the evening. + BOARDING; Your pet lives in my home with me while you are away. They get all the benefits of boarding at a facility, but with a personalized touch in the comfort of a home and the experience of a professional dog trainer. * The following services may be offered on a case-by-case basis. Please contact for more information. + DOG WALKING; 30 or 60 minutes + DROP IN VISITS; 30 or 60 minutes (Typically booked for 1-2 visits daily, great option for cats!) IMPORTANT: All pets MUST be up to date on their required vaccinations. Proof of vaccination should be provided prior to service administration. All boarding/daycare pets should be able to sleep in either a crate, or pen. ♡ PLEASE FEEL FREE TO ASK ME ABOUT DOG TRAINING 🐶 ♡ 🐾 ABOUT MY SERVICES + DAYCARE & BOARDING A great way to enrich your pet's life while you are away at work or on a trip. You may either drop your pet off or request transportation to and from my home ($0.75/mile). Get ready to set your dog up for a fun, structured and safe stay full of socializing, relaxing, playing and more! Prior to your pet's first day with me, we typically schedule a meet and greet/evaluation. This allows me to asses what types of dogs yours will best get along with, if any, while also gathering information on how best prepare my home for their stay. Each visit is catered to your pet's individual needs. One of the main benefits my daycare/boarding program is the expertise and flexibility I bring to the table. Private daycare allows me to manage pets that may not normally be suited for your regular daycare or boarding facilities. These reasons can include behavioral issues, anxiety, medical conditions, exercise requirements, etc., many of which I am equipped to handle. You can expect play groups to be strategically picked to best benefit your dog. Activities can include puzzle toys, nose games, mental enrichment, fetch, flirt pole play, and much more. All pups will take breaks that allow them to decompress in-between playtimes. This is esential for maintaining the mental and physical wellbeing of your dog. For this reason, your pet should be able to rest safely in either an enclosed space, large pen, or crate. At night, and meal times, this also allows for your pet to be safely contained or in case I run any short errands. A BLURB ABOUT ME: I am the owner of Mindful Mutts LLC, a dog training business that offers group classes at Pet Supplies Plus in Macon, Private Lessons, Day Training and Boarding and Training. After spending many years learning from and mentoring under several other trainers, I found my passion in building, strengthening, and repairing the relationships between man and canine. Previously, I have worked in veterinary clinics, pet stores, and boarding facilities gaining valuable experience and knowledge in the animal industry. In addition to dog training, I am currently working towards completing my Bachelors in Biomedical Engineering. Lastly, but not least, I am the proud mother of a beautiful little girl who absolutely lights up my life. As for your pets, I have experience housing and caring for all sorts of fuzzy and nonfuzzy friends. I currently own 3 lovely dogs across a range of ages and a mischievous male cat. I have previously owned fish, amphibians, ferrets, rats, bunnies, and several other species. That being said, while this IS a dog oriented service app, I do often welcome the needs of other animals as well. I have cared for for horses, peacocks, bunnies, chickens, ducks, etc. while their owners have been away. Should you decide to place your pet in my care, I can assure you that he or she will be provided with the best possible treatment until their time comes to be reunited with you.

“Valerie to the rescue again! Excellent sitter, super flexible and great communication. We were on our way for a quick trip to Atlanta and decided to check the fair on our way and Valerie was able to help us with our dog. Second time he has stayed with her and her family when we come to Georgia. Thank you Valerie!”

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 Byron 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 92 sitters in Byron, 88% 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.
