“Dana and Brandon were great. Clean and welcoming environment. Kinda felt like dropping our fur-kid off at a friends house for the weekend. They stayed in touch with us and sent updates and pics. We will definitely be calling on them in the future and recommending them to our friends.”
“Kathy took all the stress out of boarding our dog for the first time. Constant updates on how our fur baby was doing. Our dog was able to socialize with the other dogs she was boarding and enjoyed his puppy vacation. I highly recommend Kathy, we will be trusting her with our pup in the future.”
“This was my first time boarding or as I like to say sending my senior dog to“sleep-away camp,” and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Scheduling, drop-off, pick-up, and everything in between was seamless. Ms. Kim took such wonderful care of my girl and kept me updated the with photos and videos, which truly helped me relax while I was away. My dog had an absolute blast, and it was clear she was in experienced, caring hands. Kim’s communication, professionalism, and genuine love for animals made this whole experience exceptional. I’m so grateful and will absolutely be booking “camp” with her again!”
“Highly recommend! Book with her asap!! Beau has the best time always and I get so many updates I don’t stress at all!! Beau is always happy to be there too and loves Bear!”
“Kyrie was wonderful! He took our 2 large dogs (golden retriever and Irish setter) on short notice and they were so well cared for. Great communication and he took them on walks, played with them, and loved on them. He also sent pictures and videos. They came home tired and happy! Highly recommend!”
“This is our second long trip leaving our pups with Ladonna and we were able to relax and not worry about how well our dogs were being treated because Ladonna treats them like royalty!”
“Lindsey was great, friendly, responsive to messages, sent pictures of my dog to ease my mind as this was our first time leaving her with a sitter. Would gladly book with her again.”
“Seulgi was fantastic! She and her husband took great care of my Lucas! She sent photos many times a day and you could tell my Lucas was having a great vacation away from us! Thank you for all your help Seulgi!!”
“Thank you, Shaniece! You kept my furry baby so I could get some "me" time. I was able to enjoy my vacation even more when you sent a video, showing how much fun he was having. We'll see you again soon!”
“We feel so lucky to have found Valerie—she was truly a blessing! This was our dog’s first time staying with her, and from the moment we met her, we could tell how much she genuinely loves and cares for the dogs she watches. It immediately put our minds at ease. She even invited us over for a meet-and-greet a few days before our trip so Maisey could get comfortable in the space ahead of time, which we really appreciated. Her backyard is huge with plenty of room for dogs to run and play—perfect for Maisey since she loves being outside. Valerie also kept us updated with lots of pictures and messages during the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will absolutely book with her again!”
“While I was on a trip, she looked after my baby. I was terrified to leave him with someone. I felt bad that he believed I had abandoned him. When I was able to speak with her, she kept me informed, which is helpful because it gives me a basic notion of whether he's affected, leaving him with someone else so we can plan how to handle it going forward. Also it helped me cope leaving him. He was happy when I picked him up.”
“I am so glad Ashley was willing to take care of Henry last minute for us! I was nervous about leaving him for first time but knew immediately he’d be in good hands after meeting her!! He even got a Christmas present in his bag! I will definitely be using Ashley when we have to leave him behind!!”
“Awesome sitter! They took great care of my two dogs for five days and kept me updated throughout the stay with daily messages and updates on how they were doing. It was clear that my dogs were happy and well taken care of, which made me feel much more comfortable being away from them. No complaints at all, and I would absolutely book with them again when we need a sitter. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve had animals my whole life. I worked at an animal shelter for a couple of years when I was in high school as well. I currently have two small dogs that I adore. I will treat your pet as if they were my own! My weekends are normally open so I am available to check on your pet throughout the day as needed. I will send you a text with a picture at each visit or walk. I will make sure your pet has fresh food and water and can administer medication if needed. For walks, I will make sure the ground is not too hot for their feet.
“I love booking Julia when it comes to find a sitter for my pet. She's always great with her and I'm never concerned about my pet's well being because Julia sends me updates all the time. I highly recommend Julia as your pet sitter. She's always quick to respond even on short notices. Thank you so much Julia for caring for my pet!”

Brishuna was absolutely amazing! She was so very patient and courteous during every interaction! We loved the communication and could tell that Riven enjoyed being with her. This is the first time we ever went to pickup and he didn’t want to leave! 😂 Thanks so much for your attentive service
Dana and Brandon were an excellent choice for Bean and I. They welcomed Bean into their family and took the time to make sure he was acclimated and comfortable. They provided daily pictures and communication to keep me updated and were flexible in accommodating my schedule. They are most certainly my first choice for future bookings. Thank you both so much!

100% of sitters in Macon 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.

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 Macon 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 Macon.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Macon 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 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.
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.
