“Javier and his wife were awesome with Sam. Ot was my first time using Rover and he helped me navigate the app. Sam enjoyed his day and played with Javier’s 2 dogs. He has a great back yard!! Lots of room to run and play”

“We had a great experience with Josh! His two pups are sweet and well behaved and Cora loved it there! Josh is super attentive and communicative, and it was great to see how comfortable Cora could feel right away running around in their wonderful outdoor space. Thanks Josh!”


About: I genuinely love animals and have experience caring for a variety of pets including dogs, cats, reptiles, guinea pigs, and other small animals. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I always take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Whether it's feeding, walking, playtime, cleaning, or simply keeping them company, I treat every pet with patience, attention, and care as if they were my own. I’m comfortable following specific routines and instructions to make sure your pet stays happy and stress-free while you're away. I currently work from home which allows me to provide consistent, attentive, and personalized care. I have plenty of time to give pets love, play, and regular updates. I have a spacious, secure three-story townhome and access to backyard space as well as a private neighborhood dog park, providing a safe and enriching environment for pets.
About: I provide a safer and more relaxing experience for your pets — as well as a more worry-free time for you — than you'll find with many sitters and kennels who intermingle pets from different families. That practice unavoidably creates unpredictability and risk, which I eliminate by giving your pets their own private room. And since I only host a maximum of 4 clients at a time, I'm able to offer a level of loving attention and individualized care that isn't possible at large operations. I'm the guy you see at parties, in the corner talking to the dog or cat. I'm mature, responsible, and nice and I've had pets all my life. In fact, it's because of the many times I've faced the tricky and nerve-wracking challenge of finding great accommodations for all my own animals that I decided to offer this service to other pet lovers. I've worked as a boarder at 2 vet clinics. I've also got tons of experience caring for my own pets and those of friends and family, as well as countless strays and fosters. When your little ones are with me, you can truly and comfortably enjoy your time away, knowing my mission is to keep them very safe and happy. 🥰 A DEDICATED CARETAKER I don't go away to an office job, so I'm almost always home and free to build my schedule around serving my pet-guests, who are treated as if they were my own. 💬 GREAT COMMUNICATION You'll get photos, videos, and updates! (Unless you prefer not to.) And you can always feel welcome to check in. I want you to have peace of mind while you're away from your critters. 🏡🌳 A PARK-LIKE PROPERTY (see photos 🌺) We have a massive yard, with a large pond, a sidewalk all around it, and even an island accessed by a bridge. All of this is inside our fence, and this is where I'll be walking your dog(s), which, of course, is safer and more secure than walking them out on the streets. I also built a secure 100ft cable run with locking carabiners, which is available to dogs for extended (supervised) outside time, upon request. 🐶🐱 A PRIVATE SPACE JUST FOR YOUR PETS Your pets will never have to mix with unknown and unfamiliar animals, so you'll never have to worry over a risk of stressful interactions or dangerous altercations with strange dogs or cats. I carefully maintain several entirely separate zones... • Critter Den 1 — A single family of dogs gets this big, fun room to themselves. It's the biggest section of our basement, which I've converted into a pet haven. There's a comfy loveseat, a beanbag chair, dog beds, a dog house, rugs, blankets, and toys. • Critter Den 2 — Another large, private room in our converted basement. It's got a comfy chair, a small couch, dog beds, rugs, blankets, and toys. • Critter Den 3 — A cozy, private room with a beanbag chair, doggy beds, blankets, rugs, and toys. My quietest space, it's perfect for seniors, puppies, or generally laid-back dogs. • The Littles Lounge — One family of cats and/or smaller dogs (or a big dog of a certain disposition) can have our guest room, which I've turned into a fun retreat. Pets will enjoy a floor-to-ceiling custom cat tree, watching windows, a couch, pet beds, cat houses, toys, rugs, scratchers, and a litter box. • Main House — Our own pets live in a different section of the house and will always be kept completely separate from yours. So, from your pets' perspective, it'll be as if they're the only animals here! 🔐 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Each guest is equipped with a special QR Code tag, just in case. If scanned on any smart phone, your pet's details and my contact info will be displayed, and I'll get an alert with their GPS location. 🐰🐷🐭🦊 A HARDCORE ANIMAL LOVER 🐴🐮🐥🐟 I'm vegan, which I mention only because it's an indication that my life is largely focused on keeping all animals safe and happy, and this same philosophy will drive the way I treat yours. ❗️ EMERGENCY PLAN If a medical emergency arises, I'll take your pet(s) to The Village Vets 24-Hour Emergency, which is only 5.7 miles away, and keep you well informed.
About: I’m an experienced dog owner with two huskies of my own, and previously I had a Jack-Russel terrier I took on lots of walks, so I understand high-energy breeds, strong personalities, and the importance of structure, routine, and exercise. I have a 6 foot fence, that my huskies cannot jump, so if you have a dog that likes to jump, my fence can probably keep them contained in my backyard for their safety. I’m comfortable handling energetic dogs, leash manners, and dogs that need consistent exercise to stay happy and calm. Walks are never rushed—I tailor them to each dog’s energy level, weather conditions, and comfort. I also pay close attention to hydration, behavior cues, and overall well-being. Your dog will receive individual attention, affection, and calm supervision in a home environment. I take pet safety seriously and follow owner instructions closely, including feeding routines, medication schedules (if applicable), and house rules. I am also a mom to two humans, 7 years old and an older baby. I am a stay at home mom, so my schedule is very flexible for dog walking or drop-ins, but I may have my baby in stroller with me for walks, please let me know if that’s not ok. I recently quit my job at the CDC, I was a biologist, to spend time with my girls during their formative years. I take honesty and dependability very seriously so you need not worry about your pets or home in my care. Thanks for reading my profile. I am a stay-at-home mom, taking care of my huskies and kids. As long as you don’t mind me bringing my baby to walk alongside your dog in my stroller, I can walk your dog anytime of day during the week or weekends. I have a 6 foot tall, fenced-in backyard, so I am ideal boarding spot for high energy dogs. I have a 6 foot tall, fenced in backyard and 2 sweet husky ladies to keep your dog company in doors. I can crate your dog in my house if needed. I believe clear communication is key, so I provide updates, photos, and honest feedback during each booking. My goal is for you to feel confident and for your dog to feel secure, exercised, and cared for while you’re away.
About: I’m a huge dog lover, there isn’t much that I’m more passionate about than dogs. I come from a big dog loving family. I’ve been a dog owner most of my life. Since I was about 8 I would study and research all I could about dogs and I’ve even trained pretty much every family dog we’ve. It was mostly the basics and cool tricks. Even til this day I enjoy teaching my pup new fun tricks I pretty much have open availability on weekends. I work through the week but I’m willing to help out with the pups through the week as well My pup has free roam in my house. Only place off limits is the kitchen but I like for her to be comfortable . My pup is crate trained but I allow her to stay out if I’ll only be gone for a few hours. Making sure the house is clean first
About: I love, respect, care for and appreciate all Gods beautiful creations, especially if I am blessed to receive them personally.

Taking care of your babies would be my absolute honor and bring me joy to provide a peace of mind for you to enjoy knowing your family is in good hands when you can’t bring them along.

I’m a cuddler to the spoiled fubbies as I understand them completely! I give them loads of love and attention, of course food water, and take them on walks as often as need be alongside whatever other requirements may be necessary for successfully taken care of the fur babies!

Or reviews last posted from 2022. A few years ago we got off Rover and became private sitters due to us gaining enough loyal clientele. As of June 2026, we recently moved to the Atlanta area so we are accepting new clients again. Plus Rover was a great platform for us to be apart of. The same reviews you see in 2022, we still ensure the level of service our past client received. We are committed to bringing smiles to our doggie and kitties in the Atlanta area.❤️** HOPE TO SEE YOU SOON!!
“I wish I could keep it a secret but my conscience compels me to say that Peggy was my luckiest and best find since relocating to Decatur. Both Chispa and I were delighted and impressed with her, her home and her Sparks. I know Chispa is in good and loving hands. Peggy is our new BFF.”

“Lyndley was awesome!! I got sick the week she was supposed to watch my pup and she was so understanding and considerate when I had to cancel days at the last minute. My pup seemed happy and well cared for when I picked him up. I’d use her again!”

About: I’ve owned and raised around 6 cats throughout my life. About 3 dogs and almost all of them were rescue pets. I’ve indulged in both dog and house sitting, most of which were overnight jobs. I’ve tended to malnourished puppies where I’ve nursed them back to perfect health. All around most of my experiences were personal, such as growing up with pets but by the time I was a teenager, I indulged in house sitting, dog walking, etc. The most pets I’d say, I’ve taken care of all at once would be around 5 or 6. I’ve cared for a few reptile pets such as turtles and snakes but it has mostly been cats and dogs. For the first time in my adult life, I have my own beautiful pup. Thank you I’m looking for some real work in this field, so let me know if anyone needs someone recurring. I have reliable transportation and am mostly available. I live on a pier, in a floating home, so if you aren’t comfortable with that, we may consider sitting instead of boarding. It’s a nice, calm environment for all. I’m not picky so if the pet wants to sleep in the bed that’s fine by me!

“Michelle has been so great with my sweet Paris that even though we don’t need her services often, Paris gets excited the moment we pull up (knowing exactly where we are) and is never sad to see me leave, lol! She’s happy when I pick her up but has clearly had a great time with Michelle and any other pups around. Michelle has simply been amazing to work with as she’s navigated some of my own challenging schedule issues with grace during an already difficult time. I am so grateful.”

“Sterling has done a fantastic job of making Nellie feel comfortable in her home! Nellie can be nervous but our initial meet and greet went incredibly well, and just two weeks into twice/weekly daycare and Nellie is pulling me down the driveway with excitement.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Clarkston on Rover is $37.45 per day (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 2,780 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Clarkston. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Clarkston 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 2,780 sitters in Clarkston, 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.
