“We have used Sophia twice now for daytime services and each time, our dog came home safe and happy. It's obvious Sophia has a lot of experience with pet care and gives me confidence in her ability to keep our dog happy. Sophia responds quickly to texts and provides pictures. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Sophia to any pet parent. In fact, we already have Sophia booked for a long term stay while we go on vacation.”

“Huan was such great help taking care of my dog for 3 days. She was very communicative about his day and always sending me pics and videos of his day. Will totally recommend her as a pet sitter and I am sure we will be coming back again :).”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs since 2000 and cats since I was 8. From kitten, puppies to senior dogs and cats, I love them all. I will care for your dog like they were my own. I currently work from home everyday. I can walk dogs before work, pet sit all day, or watch them in the evening or overnight. I am available for long stays as well. I have no pets at this time so your pet can be comfortable and roam around freely. I can feed, play with and give lots of attention.
About: There's no place like home but if you can't be there, your pets should be here. I take the responsibility very seriously of providing outstanding care and ensuring the safety of your pets during their stay. Whether you’re going on vacation, buisness trip or just need a hand, I'm available to make sure you don't need to worry about them at all. Most pets have unique routines and behavior so I customize a schedule that suits each one best. Pets are never left alone and unattended in the yard or otherwise and doors are never left open. My top priorities are the exact same as yours; the safety, comfort and happiness of your friends during their stay, They're part of the family here. Let me know if there are activities they especially enjoy...walks, playing catch, afternoon naps etc...and I'll take care of the rest. Many pets are endlessly entertained by all of the action at the park directly across the street. They'll spend time sitting at the front window watching everything that passes by, There's no need for your pup to be crate or cage trained but it's fine if they are. One of the absolute great features here are the various ramps we have leading inside and outside for pets that are older or have mobility issues. I've had many dogs, cats and others at all different energy and age levels throughout my life including beagles, pitbulls, poodles, cats and many others. I'll care for yours the same as if they were my own, giving them the attention they deserve. They'll be allowed to hang out pretty much all over the house, including sitting on the couch if you allow it. If your pup loves walks, parks, creeks, playing catch and fenced yards, this is the right place for them. I currently don’t have any pets of my own and I'd be happy to care for yours. If you've been searching for the right place, you've found it. I'm always available to schedule a meet and greet visit. If you have a chance, please check out the photo gallery to see some of our buddies enjoying their time in the house, the parks and surroundings. If you would like any other information, feel free to get in touch anytime. Thank you again for your time and interest. I look forward to seeing you soon. I always take the time to make sure that all pets receive the attention they deserve. I know there are many options when it comes to having your pet cared for while you're away. That's why I always make my best effort to provide a great atmosphere and experience when they visit. I'm usually around and available most of the time and do my best to be flexible with schedules. You don't have to worry about being early or late with drop-offs and pick- ups, we can always ar keep everything as convenient as possible. My main goals are to always keep your pets safe, happy and comfortable at all times. Now you can finally take the trip you've been waiting to take. There's nothing better than spending time away without the anxiety of worrying about your pet’s safety and happiness. That's my focus. I try to keep them occupied with various activities during the day and evening. They have a fenced yard to explore and play in, a park right across the street where we take long walks, extended trails with a creek area to explore, and more. If your dog occasionally acts uncomfortable or anxious around other dogs or people, I'll make sure to walk them in isolated-unpopulated areas. I've had a few dogs just like this so I understand how to work with these situations. I always keep things safe as my first priority. If pets don't seem to get along that well, they can remain separated as necessary. There's plenty of room here and I make sure everything is dog proof, including making sure there's nothing they can get into on the counters or floors.( I know some dogs are like magicians and are very good at reaching things anywhere) If you have any questions or would like any other information please let me know anytime. I do my very best to make any stay for pets enjoyable and safe.
“Phil and Amanda are amazing. Our two pugs can be skittish around other dogs and Phil and Amanda paired them with the perfect duo to help them get more comfortable. They took them on numerous walks and even let them snuggle in bed on an early morning drop off. I can’t recommend them more and I’ll use them again when we come to town.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. Having pets myself, my oldest dog being 11, I have experience in taking care of senior dogs but I also have a 3 y/o and have raised puppies myself so I am aware of everything that requires a young pup to a senior. I’m working part-time because of college so I would love to enjoy some more time with dogs!!! I am home almost everyday and don’t usually go out so I love being at home with my doggy’s! I have two friendly dogs, 1 a senior pup so he isn’t much involved and another 3 year old who loves meeting new friends and he needs friends to play with!! I also have a small fenced backyard which my dogs use to always go outside
“Needed last minute doggy day care for my 2 dogs and Mindy graciously opened up her home to them! During the day I got updates on how much fun they were having! They came back home and crashed the rest of the day!”

About: I offer a comfortable cozy home to all dogs and also plenty of play time/walks. I have been a reliable sitter for friends, neighbors, and family for years with multiple repeat dogs who I love as my own! I work from home and have a flexible job that allows me to care for your pup all day. We have a large fully fenced backyard with tons of space to run around and have fun. The dogs love to hang out with us on the deck. My home is a safe, fun, and very clean space to be in. Because I am home all day working remotely, I am able to go on walks very frequently and your dog will always be tended to! Dogs are welcome on all furniture and free to snuggle up in bed or the couches. I have a fenced yard and plenty of space. I have a very open communication style and will send frequent updates through the day. You will be sure to receive pictures and videos through your pets entire stay.
“Katherine was seriously a life save for our 3 month puppy Finn. We unexpectedly realized we could not take our puppy to an event and she had a quick response and was willing to take care and watch our puppy. We are incredibly grateful to have found Katherine. Couldn’t recommend her enough and will definitely be rebooking!”

“Sriju is a very kind person. She is attentive to my dog, Daisy, when she stays for the day. Daisy loves staying with her. I will continue to keep bringing my dog to stay with Sriju🐶🥰”


“Caden is an incredible sitter. He kept me updated throughout the day with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. My puppy started off shy, and Caden knew exactly how to support him — even hand‑feeding him to make sure he ate despite being nervous. His home is welcoming, and his mom is just as sweet and attentive with the dogs. I highly recommend him and will definitely book again. 10/10.”

“Amanda is amazing!!!! Our puppy, Mason, loves her! She takes really good care of Mason and has a great set up in her home for pets. She always tells us how Mason is doing throughout the day and is very reliable. We are so glad we found Amanda for Mason!”

“Maizy has been coming to Christina's twice weekly since she was 5 months, which was 2 years ago. When I drop her off I know she will be safe, happy, full of play, loved, and pooped at the end of the day! Christina, her family, her farm menagerie (from a safe distance), and the doggie posse provide Maizy fantastic physical and mental exercise, which all leads to a tired, sated dog that normally has energy to burn! Thank you, Christina!!”
“I am so bless to have Raghavi P. on Rover. She took excellent care of my toy poodle, Nema. Nema has never been to daycare, and Raghavi P. made me and Nema feel at ease from the very start. She communicated well and even sent me pictures each day. I will definitely use Raghavi P. again and highly recommend her services.”

“This was my 1st time dropping off Gibbs at Jayendri’s place. We are preparing him for a longer stay. The 1st time went well. Plenty of pictures shared and Gibbs came back happy. Jayendri was good at communicating proactively with me during the stay.”

We are very happy with Rhea. She did a great job caring for Cocomelon and provided pictures and a video. This helped put me at ease since this was the first time I have left my little Cocomelon with someone I did not know previously. She provided a card so I could see what she did during her time with my pet. Thank you.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Dawsonville on Rover is $61.05 per day (as of September 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 Dawsonville 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 MD 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 5,055 sitters in Dawsonville, 86% respond to messages in under an hour.

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.
