“Stephanie was an amazing host to our dog. The atmosphere was lively with other friendly dogs. I'm sure our dog had a good time here and was plenty stimulated. Very appreciative of the fun photos Stephanie took during our dog's stay.”
“Jackie was wonderful with Toby! She gave him so much love and care, and he came home happy and well taken care of. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in good hands. Highly recommend her!”
“Devin provided loving day care for my dog while I was working in Cartersville from out of town. Her children were also gentle and affectionate with him, and he loved being able to run free in their enclosed back yard. I look forward to booking with her again when I am back there for work.”
About: Hi there! I have been a devoted dog owner and lover my entire life. I understand that dogs aren’t just pets; they are family. Since I'm home full-time, your pup will get constant supervision, endless belly rubs, and all the attention they are used to receiving at home. Your dog will be treated exactly like one of my own. I live in a quiet, non-smoking home in the Acworth area. We have a spacious front yard —perfect for fetch or lounging in the grass. Dogs are allowed on the furniture, and I have plenty of cozy dog beds to go around. If they prefer their own crate, I can easily accommodate that too. I know how stressful it can be to leave your furry best friend behind. I specialize in making your dog's stay feel like a fun vacation rather than a stressful kennel experience. I also provide owners with regular photo and video updates so you can enjoy your time away with total peace of mind! For stays longer than three days I prefer to bring my cavapoo Coco as long as the dogs are compatible. She is being trained as a service animal, so unless she is off the leash and outside, she is surprisingly laid back. Because we both work at home, we are always here. Your dog is never left alone. With your approval I may take them to the dog park to let them run - as long as that is something you enjoy with them. I live on a private road with only 3 other homes. There is almost no traffic so walking is relaxing and safe. Two of my neighbors have dogs, plus there are deer, armadillos, woodchucks, squirrels, chipmunks, and birds to entertain the sniffers and excite the barkers. My house is large and simply furnished with lots of spots for a nap and room for inside play when the weather is uninviting. I’m a Yale graduate with 30+ years working for Fortune 100 companies - I’m trustworthy and honest and you can depend on me to treat your home like mine (or better!) when I’m there.
“Kelsey has displayed so much patience with my anxiety ridden fur baby, Jackie. Though she still prefers to stay at home, I think she’s slowly beginning to get comfortable spending time with Kelsey and I’m soooo grateful for that.”
About: I love animals in general, but I have a love and passion for taking care of dogs sense at a very young age. Family and friends have always considered me as a dog whisperer because of the gift that I have in understanding the pets that I care for. I'm available at the convenience of your pet care needs. The days and times are always flexible seven days a week. I'm looking forward to taking care of your pet. I take the dogs out for walks on the nature trails and dog park for lots of exercise and playtime for your pet. Feedings and walking time are all scheduled within a routine along with potty breaks.
“Wow! I was really nervous about leaving my tiny cavapoo for the first time and must have called a dozen kennels before I decided to try Rover. What a lucky day when I found Elise. She and her two dogs Buster and Mango gave Coco a safe, fun, loving place to stay. I was afraid she wouldn’t want to come home. Elise and Bill have a lovely home with a beautifully fenced front and back yard and a shady porch and deck for pup naps. I can’t thank them enough or recommend them highly enough. Really superb and we will be back next month - already booked for a week!”
“Lizdalia is an amazing host for Joey. He had a great experience the two times we used her services and we a looking forward to another great overnight care for Joey this coming weekend. Thanks Lizdalia - 5 Star Reciew⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Jennie and her family are amazing. She takes such good care of Samara while I am at work. Samara loves her big fenced in back yard, her girls and getting to play with other pups! She always comes home wiped out from having a good time! Thanks, Jennie!”
About: Not only do I currently have seven dogs of my own, I’ve also breed mastiffs, and worked in the dog kennel industry since I was 15. I have grown up with dogs, my whole life, and now have a bunch of my own. I have experience with administering medication to dogs, taking care of senior dogs, and puppies. I am currently a stay at home mom with a seven year-old girl and a four year-old boy so I am at home with them and we Homeschool so our schedule stays open and I am home every day every week and here to let the dogs out every two hours minimum. I already have a rotation for my dogs, so it is quite easy for me to add another into the mix. I do crate and rotate my dogs. We have a large fenced in yard and throughout the day starting at 6 AM I start rotating groups of dogs in and out of the house all the way until 10:30 PM. I only feed and crates as I believe that is the safest option. I have 12 years of dog caring experience on top of having my own mini kennel in my home. I have a lot of experience working in a kennel and taking care of dogs that I take dog safety very seriously. I do not let Dogs run around after having water or food to prevent bloat. And I will always slowly introduce dogs in a correct manner as well as keep dogs in groups. I am also home almost all day everyday to stay with the dogs as well.
About: In addition to common dog owner knowledge I am also equipped with exceptional K-9 to human communication skills that will help me make nervous, unsettled, shy, or anxious pets adjust to their temporary lodging. I acquired these skills during 10 years of K-9 protection handling and training education and practice along with 15 years of bodywork with a concentration in myofascial release. I can take pets on short notice for as long as necessary. Your dog(s) will not interact with other dogs while in my care, unless previously discussed. The interior of my 2500 sf home has the space and configuration to allow up to 4 dogs to be separated into their own "living" spaces. Having two of may own, I will only take two dogs as a time. I will provide exceptional care and 24/7 attention. Why I love dog sitting My entire life, personal and professional, has been with dogs afoot. I enjoy discovering their individual personalities. Meet my pets I have two Pomeranians. About my yard Fenced, however I prefer to hand walk client's pets. I am a jogger so if your pet is used to jogging each day for exercise we can make that happen. My experience administering medication I am happy to administer any necessary medications and supplements. I have been doing so for as long as I can remember, IV, IM, topical, and oral. I build my schedule around clients needs. Mine eat at 8 AM and 6 pm and get outside for fresh air and a bio bark every 4-5 hours. In a client's home, I leave absolutely no trace I have ben there. Extreme attention to detail, respect for your environment, and I follow instructions with precision. In my home, I follow the schedule I am given and keep a low and slow approach, giving them space, time, and calm/quiet emotional support to adjust. In both environments you will receive videos, pics, and updates multiple times per day.

I would be available for dog sitting on weekends and dog walks after 3pm during the work week and anytime over weekends. I have always had a dog growing up and very lovingly cared for my own dogs for the last 31 years. I enjoy being around all dogs. When I retire I would also like to volunteer somewhere for dogs. Again, for the next 10 months, I will still be working my teacher schedule and I will be available during the work week after 3 PM for dog walks or drop ins and during the weekend for overnights. I also would be available for some of my school breaks. I have a fenced in backyard and one dog named Lina. She is medium sized and very friendly with other dogs.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Emerson
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 1,304 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Emerson. 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 Emerson 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 1,304 sitters in Emerson, 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.
