About: I have extensive experience caring for pets of all personalities and needs. I focus on creating a calm, loving environment where every pet feels safe, comfortable, and valued. My goal is to provide consistent attention and gentle care, making sure your pet’s routine is respected and their happiness is a priority. As a stay-at-home mom, pet care is woven into my daily life. I provide consistent attention, play, and comfort while managing family routines, ensuring pets feel loved and secure every day. My flexible schedule allows me to adapt to each pet’s unique needs with patience and care. When caring for pets in their own homes, I stick to their usual routines to keep things comfortable and stress-free. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and love so they feel safe and happy while their owners are away.

AJ (Andrew) was great. He followed all my requests. He was super gracious and accommodating the many times I asked for changes after my trip had started. I was able to leave in my trip at ease, knowing he will take care of my pets very well.

Emily was great in the drop-in visits for our dog. Very good with a dog who is a little skittish at first meeting. Emily made friends with him quickly!

About: I’ve been caring for cats and dogs for over 15 years. I grew up in a cat-loving home, where my parents welcomed seven cats into our family. My siblings and I all shared the responsibility of caring for them, so looking after animals has always been a part of my life. We also always had big dogs! Mastiffs, Labrador Retrievers, and a Standard Poodle, I’m very comfortable caring for both large and small breeds. Our newest family member, Penny the Chihuahua, has given me plenty of experience earning the trust of shy, skittish, anxious, and even grumpy little pups. I understand that some dogs and cats need a little extra time to feel comfortable, and I’m committed to respecting their boundaries while making them feel safe, loved, and cared for. Whether your pet is outgoing or a little more reserved, I’ll meet them where they are and give them the patience and kindness they deserve. To me, pets are so much more than animals, they’re family. While you’re away, I’ll care for your furry family member with the same love, attention, and respect that I would give my own, so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands! Right now I work at a family-friend owned franchise and have very flexible hours. If i’m notified 2-1 week’s in advance I could have the entire day/days dedicated to taking care of your pup. If last minute pet care is needed, I can more than likely work my schedule around to help with your needs! I have a mostly fenced in yard and will be taking that fix into priority, I just don’t currently have the funds to finish the other side of the fence. Leashed walks and potty breaks will be the for front of my care until we are able to fix the fence. I am more than happy to stand on the curb side for 25 minutes while your pup sniffs the same concrete patch each walk, per the inconvenience 😅😂 I understand and have experience following feeding schedules so if you have list, please let me know and i’d be happy to follow!

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.

About: I have taken care of dogs for as long as i can remember! My family has always had a dog… or two… okay maybe more lol, But I don’t remember a time where we didn’t have a dog family member! I am very experienced with their needs and take wonderful care of all fur babies, not just dogs! I work 40hours a week and have 1 day off not including Saturday and Sunday.I am typically home from work at 6pm and go to work at 6:30am! I follow all rules/directions when caring for animals and do not stray from them. I ensure they receive meals, playtime, and of course snuggles. Whatever they need the fur babies get! In my apartment, we allow all the furniture time they want and free range! My home is theirs when they’re in my care.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, so taking care of them has always been second nature to me. Right now I have two dogs of my own, Ali, my Cockapoo, and Queen, my Great Pyrenees. They have completely different personalities, so I know every dog has their own routine and needs. Even though I’m new to Rover, I’m dependable, patient, and I’ll care for your dog the same way I care for mine. Whether it’s a walk, a drop-in visit, or staying with them in your home, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I’ll also send plenty of updates and pictures so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I currently offer dog walking & drop-in visits. I work full-time, so I’m mostly available on weekends, some holidays, and other times depending on my schedule. I’ll always be upfront about my availability before accepting a booking. Once I commit, I’ll make sure your pet gets the care, attention, and love they deserve, and I’ll stick to their normal routine as closely as possible. I know leaving your pet with someone else can be stressful, so I want you to feel comfortable from the start. I’ll treat your home with respect, follow your pet’s routine, and pay attention to the little things that make them feel safe and comfortable. I’ll also keep you updated with pictures and messages so you always know how they’re doing.

About: Your dog isn’t “just another booking” here — they’re treated like family. Unlike crowded kennels or rotating sitters, I provide personalized, low-stress, home-style care where your dog receives constant attention, affection, and a safe, calm environment. I am a stay at home mother ! I have an 8 year old son as well. My whole family absolutely adores animals and so do I. So what better way to spend my time than helping others with their babies. I am free 7 days a week to board and my schedule is open, so bathroom breaks are always available and scheduled feedings. Please feel free to contact me with any questions. I have a fenced in yard , so your babies are safe and secure. I kennel train as well, so my own animals are kennel trained as well as trained for basic commands and more. I have a 3 bedroom house, so they are not cramped !

About: I've worked in dog daycares for a total of 4 years and have trained dogs for 3 years. I love working with puppies in basic obedience training and older dogs for more advanced training. I've interacted with all breeds of dogs and cats and have administered medications like insulin, anxiety medications, and your basic flea and tick prevention. I am a teacher and am lucky enough to get summers off. This leaves me with the flexibility to help others during the busiest months of the year! I have 3 dogs of my own who are well socialized. Any pets in my care, in my home, will need a meet and greet before providing services to ensure the safety of everyone. There will be constant supervision and at least 3 walks a day. I also have a pool that we can use if your pet enjoys the water, which is fantastic in these summer months! During meals, my pets will be separated from yours, if needed, but have the option to eat together. In client homes, I am always respectful and professional. We will discuss all concerns prior to the service and I am always willing to make changes to best suit your needs.

About: With a lifelong passion for animal care, I have experience caring for a wide variety of pets, including birds, fish, reptiles, rabbits, and dogs. I am confident handling special care needs such as administering medications, as well as providing attentive support for puppies and senior pets. As a dedicated pet owner to my beloved Cockapoo, I understand the importance of trust and compassion when it comes to your furry family members. I would be delighted to provide reliable, attentive care for your pets. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I currently work part-time as an independent travel specialist, which allows me to create my own flexible schedule around the needs of the pets and families I work with. Because I typically work from home, I am able to spend most of the day with your pet, providing companionship, supervision, regular potty breaks, playtime, feeding schedules, and plenty of attention throughout the day. Pets in my home are cared for like family. I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment with plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and regular feeding schedules to help them feel comfortable and at ease while away from their owners. I understand how important peace of mind is when leaving your pet in someone else’s care, and I strive to make every pet feel happy, secure, and well cared for.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Macon on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 287 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Macon. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Macon stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

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.

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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Macon with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Macon. On Rover:

  • 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.

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.
