“We’re so lucky to have stumbled across you guys on Rover! Gus comes home each day worn out from playing with his friends. He has been so eager to get out of my car each morning, which tells me he loves going to Noah’s Ark Pet Staycation. Thank you Bryan, Jaymie, and Noah. We look forward to booking on a regular basis soon.”
“Ray was so accommodating with Belle. She wasn’t sure about being there but Ray really took care of her in a great way. She wanted to be right with him and Ray was ok with that. He sent pictures and updates. If we ever go back to Macon, we will use him!!!”
“Amazing pet care and friendly person. My baby Penny loves Bri! She’s wagging her tail every time she’s dropped off and picked up. Bri always keeps me in the know and sends pictures throughout the day, even when I forgot to ask for updates. And Bri’s dog, Bear, so sweet! He is such a good companion and helped get Penny out of her shell.”

About: Since I was a young child, I’ve always loved animals. So when my neighbors need someone to care for their babies, it was a no brainer! I would do overnights at their house and take their dogs on walks. I always wanted my own and I have a dog now, Hinah and she’s the apple of my eye! I’ve taught her all the basic commands and we are now working on the fun stuff! I also am my own groomer! Super lucky that my dog loves baths. I am currently working part time, but my schedule at work is very flexible. As long as I have prior notice, my bosses are good with giving me breaks for walks if needed. Also I walk my own dog 3 times daily so I definitely can make time for more. I personally crate trained my dog. She no longer sleeps in the crate at 2 years old, but she still has the discipline. I will treat your animal just like my own. If you have any special rules or needs, I can totally accommodate that also. My house is clean and big free! I vacuum daily and yes, animals are allowed on my couch!
About: I have cared for dogs and cats my entire life in my household. One of my dogs had diabetes so I do know how to administer insulin. I have also petsitted for my neighbor and friends a number of times. I am currently in college but classes are online so I am pretty much free any time or any day so you could say I am pretty flexible. I have a very big fenced in backyard, along with 2 dogs one is a little shy towards others but my other dog would love company. There is a dog park about a mile away from my house as well. I also have 2 cats but they both stay to themselves.

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 Doggy Day Care in Macon on Rover is $26.75 per day (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Macon 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 96 sitters in Macon, 89% 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.
