About: What sets us apart? It’s simple: love, attention, and a team that never misses a beat. We are a dedicated three person team who ensure your pet’s comfort, care, and happiness never stop, even when life gets busy. We have experience with pets of all sizes, personalities, and special needs, including dog reactive dogs and those who require medication. Every animal in our care receives one on one attention, plenty of playtime, and all the cuddles or adventures they need to feel safe, loved, and spoiled. Your pets also get the benefit of companionship. Our 4 story townhome has a built in Golden Retriever bestie for dogs who love to have fun and a floor plan that allows for a calm, spacious environment for the fur-iends who don’t! We go the extra mile so you can relax while away and provide consistent communication and photos so you can check in without worry! Whether it is boarding, walks, drop-ins, or playdates, our mission is the same: to provide a loving, safe, and happy experience for every pet, making sure they are cared for like family. Pet care is a natural part of our daily and weekly routine. I work from home full time, which gives me the flexibility to provide consistent attention, cuddles, and supervision for every pet in our care. With a dedicated team of three, we ensure that coverage is always available for walks, playtime, meals, medication, and any special needs. We only board one pet family at a time, so your pet(s) receive consistent and undivided attention throughout their stay. Whether it’s a quick drop in, a long walk, or an extended stay, we integrate pet care seamlessly into our day so your furry friend always receives one on one attention, love, and consistency, even when our work or personal schedules are busy. Every day is built around the pets in our care, so they have companionship, enrichment, and comfort at all times. This routine allows us to provide a safe, happy, and stress free environment for your pet while giving you peace of mind! For drop-ins, we follow the schedule you provide, offering walks or playtime in the yard, companionship and belly rubs, and meal times to keep your pet happy and comfortable. In our home, we provide a dedicated space tailored to your pet’s needs. For pets who love to play, they will enjoy spending time with our Golden Retriever, Murphy, who loves to play both inside and out. With nearby walking trails and a pet park, your dog is ensured all the fun, exercise, and play they need. Boarding includes two half mile walks per day, a potty break, and indoor/outdoor playtime. Please note that dogs who require longer or additional walks may have a small extended exercise fee depending on the routine requested. For pets who need some space, we offer an entire level of our home pet-free, so they can feel comfortable and safe while still having access to cozy spots like a couch, belly rubs, and extended walks for extra stimulation. For cats, we provide a private floor where they can lounge, soak up the sun, play with toys, and enjoy a calm, comfortable environment without the stress of unknown pets around. We also provide a complimentary litter box, so you can board your cat without the worry of hauling their personal throne, just bring their preferred litter. For small animals, we offer a secluded and relaxing environment where they can enjoy their enclosure in a way that best suits their individual needs. Our approach is all about personalized care, comfort, and enrichment, ensuring every pet feels safe, loved, and stimulated while in our home or during visits.

I care for pets as in watching them, feeding them, making sure they get special treatment as in a lot of treats and pets and food.
About: I’ve been taking care of pets ever since my first dog at age 11. Since then I’ve been walking, feeding, bathing and caring for friends and neighbors pets often. I love animals and the outdoors so it’s become a dream job for me. I work on the weekends so throughout the week I can give your pets my full undivided attention. Monday through Thursdays I usually spend studying alone so it would be nice to have furry company! I have a fenced in backyard that’s perfect for any dog. Although I don’t have any pets myself all my neighbors have furry babies and I have the perfect neighborhood for walks. I spend most time outdoors so I don’t mind going out. I enjoy taking the dogs on walks or to the park. Pets who like the indoors will have their own bed at my house. I will rarely dog sit at another person’s house but there can be a few exceptions.

About: I've worked in animal care for several years, starting at a dog boarding and daycare facility where I spent six years. I began as a kennel technician and worked my way up to general manager, gaining extensive experience caring for dogs with a wide range of personalities, behaviors, and medical needs. I'm currently pursuing a long-term goal of becoming a veterinary technician. In my free time, I foster animals for a local rescue that I'm passionate about. I take pride in using fear-free handling techniques, understanding animal body language, working through behavioral challenges, and providing compassionate care for medically compromised pets. While I'm relatively new to Rover, I've been caring for pets in my home for years. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving their owners peace of mind. I'll treat your pets like they're my own and will keep you updated with photos and messages throughout their stay. I work full-time as a veterinary assistant at a local animal hospital. I have at least two days off each week and work a half day on Wednesdays. While I am away during part of the day, I come home every day during my hour lunch break to let your baby out for a potty break, playtime, and some extra love and attention. In the evenings, I enjoy taking dogs for walks (weather permitting) and spending quality time with them. When I have pets in my care, I plan my schedule around their needs. I avoid making additional plans so I can provide plenty of one-on-one attention, playtime, cuddles, and consistency with their normal routine. I do provide care in your home, with the same schedule/availability. Such as; going to your home on my break to care for the pet(s), only sitting for one family at a time, walks, etc. My goal is to make your pet feel as comfortable, loved, and at home as possible while you're away. I have a fully fenced backyard. I also have a pool that is currently being fenced for added safety. My philosophy is simple: pets are never left unattended outside. If your pet is crate-trained or simply feels more comfortable in a crate, I have plenty of space to set one up for daytime or overnight use. I only care for one client's pet(s) at a time to provide the safest environment and plenty of one-on-one attention. I have a designated "dog cabinet" stocked with essentials like pill pockets, peanut butter, and ability to keep any medications your pet may need during their stay. If your pet rides in my vehicle, I use a pet seat belt to help keep them secure during travel. I ask that owners provide a properly fitted harness or collar and leash. If you're unable to do so, I have extras available (with your permission) to safely transfer your pet to and from my home and for walks. I do my best to maintain your pet's normal feeding schedule, so I appreciate detailed instructions regarding meals, treats, and any special preferences. I also always ask about food sensitivities, allergies, or other dietary needs to ensure your pet stays happy and healthy. These apply to in your home as well.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Macon choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.

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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking.
