“I can’t say enough good things about our experience with Lexie with Stoney Horse Acres. From the moment we dropped off our Chloe , it was clear that they truly love and understand animals. They took amazing care of Chloe sending regular updates and photos so we could relax knowing our pup was happy and safe. When we picked her up, Chloe was calm, and clearly well-loved. The facilities were comfortable, and it’s obvious that Lexie goes above and beyond to make each dog feel at home. We’ll absolutely be coming back next time we travel — highly recommend to anyone looking for top-notch care!”
“When I say she is a great dog sitter, I really mean it! She is a great dog sitter! She sent regular photos and updates throughout my dog’s stay. She loves animals and has a wonderful demeanor, spirit, and personality. I highly recommend her for any dog services that she offers.”
“We needed a sitter for our dog for a few hours while attending a graduation and we did not know anyone in the area. We found Aiko on Rover and everything worked out perfectly! Our dog can be nervous about going with someone new but she very quickly decided that Aiko would be a good friend. Aiko shared some pictures to let us know all was good and we were able to enjoy the graduation”
“She was wonderful with Spike! It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was being so well cared for while we were away. Her 3-year-old absolutely loved him, which was one of the sweetest parts of the whole experience. Spike was a little shy about eating at first, so she actually hand-fed him his breakfast until he felt comfortable enough to eat. That told me everything I needed to know about how loved and cared for he was while we were gone. Spike came home happy and clearly very comfortable with his stay. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will absolutely be reaching out to her again the next time we need someone to keep him. Highly recommend!”
“Aubriana was fantastic! She was super responsive and kept me updated throughout the stay with great pictures and videos. My pets were exceptionally well taken care of, and I couldn't be more thankful. I'm so impressed with her care and would absolutely book her again!”
“I appreciate Nick so much! I needed a pretty last-minute booking while traveling down to Columbia to visit family, and he accepted Mateo within just an hour or two. He took such great care of him and sent me pictures throughout his stay, which I really appreciated. Even within the first 10 minutes, I texted to check on Mateo, and Nick reassured me that he was doing great and that he was enjoying his company. His communication was amazing, and he really took the extra steps to make sure Mateo was comfortable and well taken care of. As someone with a reactive dog, I’m VERY particular about who I trust to watch him, so I’m really glad I found Nick. Anytime I’m traveling to Columbia and need someone to watch Mateo, Nick will definitely be my first choice!”
“Perfect pet sitting - great advance communication, pre-boarding meet up to ensure compatibility, and super site photo updates during the stay. Chloe loved playing with Moxie, and we look forward to the next visit!”
“We left our 7 month old English Cocker Spaniel, Bo, with Merrell while visiting family in town. He had never stayed with anyone else overnight so we were already a little anxious, but Merrell did a great job welcoming him in and making sure he was loved on. She kept us updated on his status and sent lots of pictures throughout his stay. It worked out well and we are already planning on booking with her again when we visit for Christmas. Highly recommend Merrell if you’re in need of a sitter in Columbia.”
“Amazing experience, extremely communicative and easy to work with could not have asked for a better sitter. My dogs were very happy upon pick up and my dogs love playing with her puppy.”
“I am so happy to have found Becky! Maggie was so happy throughout her stay and Becky took amazing care of her! I didn’t have to think twice about whether she was ok or not. She gave Maggie so many cuddles!!”
“Ms Carol was phenomenal with our senior dog! He was living his best life this past weekend! We were in town for a family reunion and brought him along for the ride. 😀 I would definitely book her again if needed.”
“Madison was great during the whole process. She sent lots of updates and kept our pup active and safe during this July heat. We appreciate all of the care she put into his stay, and we will definitely use her again for future boarding needs.”
“Very caring and attentive couple with the cutest mini Goldendoodle who will be the ultimate playmate for your pup. It was my first time leaving my dog and it could not have been a smoother experience - with lots of photos and updates to keep my anxieties at bay. I highly recommend Savannah & Chandler!”
“Kelly took care of Stella again- this time for over three weeks. I never worry about her when I am away because I know she is being well taken care of and loved. And Stella loves her home away from home too!”
About: What’s sets me apart from other sitters is I have many years of experience being around cats and dogs and I have two rescues so I know how to take care of animals! I get off at 3 for work most days so and my schedule is flexible! Afternoons suit me better but I’m willing to figure out with the client what would work best to fit their animals needs! I have a fenced in back yard that’s big and a dog and a cat that don’t mind other animals, my dog is trained as well!

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
96% of sitters in Macedon can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Macedon home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Macedon.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Macedon. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Macedon sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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.
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 SC 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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
