About: Growing up living with my mom, we always had 4 dogs and now I have 2 dogs! My wife rovers and I help her sometimes but figured I'd start my own account! This is fun and I enjoy it! I work from home(sometimes have to travel) so it's easy checking in on pets or staying elsewhere if needed! I work from him so checking in on pets or staying at a house is easy and flexible for me! I do have to travel sometimes. I have 2 dogs right now that are small and very friendly. I have a fenced in yard. Working from home makes it easy to travel to take care of dogs!

About: I’ve worked professionally as a horse trainer, wildlife rehabilitator, zookeeper, animal cruelty investigator and farm animal sanctuary manager. As of 2026 I now offer sitting and boarding for dogs and cats in my home or yours. In my home, your dog or cat would have the space exclusively to themselves as there are no other animals or kids in the house. I can also service horse farms including feeding, cleaning and overnight stays. I know how much trust it takes to leave your animals with someone else, and I don't take that lightly. I guarantee that your animals will feel safe and comfortable with me, and you'll rest easy knowing they're in experienced hands. I look forward to working with you! I work mostly from home, which allows me to be present and attentive throughout the day. I’m able to provide regular potty breaks, exercise, outdoor time in my fenced yard, and companionship without long absences. I focus on creating a safe, calm, and comfortable experience based on each pet’s personality and needs. In my home, dogs have a peaceful environment and access to my fully fenced backyard for supervised outdoor time. Because I work mostly from home and don’t have other animals right now, I’m able to give them consistent attention, companionship, and a relaxed setting. For cats, I have a private bedroom available for those who may feel uneasy at first or need their own space. The room includes a cat tower, cozy cubbies, and a full bed with soft blankets arranged into comfortable nesting spots. This gives them a quiet place to decompress and adjust at their own pace, while still receiving attentive care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal feeding, exercise, and care routine so things feel familiar and low stress. I’m respectful of both the pet and the home, and I’m attentive to details like energy level, mood, and overall wellbeing. I also provide regular updates so you know your pet is comfortable and doing well.

“Maria was so great. Got many updates. Even a nice quick one after i left because Molly was a little timid to have me leave, she can be shy at first. I was sad to leave her on her first doggie daycare. But Marie made everything great, she shared multiple pictures that she warmed up and went on walkies and she seemed to have a great time. I hope to make this a weekly occasion! It was nice to be stress free at work.”

“Toast had 3 daycare stays with Kaitlyn while I was in the area visiting friends. Toast was so happy to see Kaitlyn at the beginning of every stay and came home calm and content. A huge storm occurred during one of the stays which frightened Toast, and Kaitlyn helper her feel safe by giving her a hiding place and wrapping her up. Couldn't be happier knowing Toast was in safe and caring hands!”

About: I will love and care for your furry friends as I do my own. I've owned dogs my whole life and my family would say it's a passion I've never fulfilled (but will be thanks to rover!) I've owned all size breeds so teacup or a small horse, I've got you covered! I am a Navy Veteran and current full-time student at the University of Michigan and my husband works from home 100% of the time. Your pups will never be left unsupervised. We have two other dogs in the home who love having guests and making new friends. Feedings can take place whenever you deem necessary for you! We have a ton of treats (SCHNACKS) ready to spoil and pamper your puppers as we do our own. I live on 7 acres of land in a private community, and have approximately 1 acre of fenced in yard directly off the back of the house. Your friends will be able to take plenty of potty breaks and nice tranquil walks in the "countryside". They will be kenneled at night (around 11p.m.) in a dark, empty room in a padded kennel. (I know it sounds depressing but is actually super relaxing for doggos!). Doggie bath services are also negotiable.

About: I’ve been a dedicated dog owner for years and genuinely love caring for animals. I currently have a dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone trustworthy, attentive, and patient. I’m especially attentive to dogs’ comfort levels, routines, energy, and emotional needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or just consistency and calm energy, I adapt to what helps them feel safe and cared for. I have experience with: • Daily walks and exercise • Senior dog patience and slower-paced care • Administering routines and medications if needed • Dogs with anxiety or overstimulation • Maintaining structured feeding and potty schedules • Providing frequent updates and communication I work from home frequently and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide focused attention and supervision. I treat pets with the same care and respect I would want for my own dog. I have a flexible schedule and genuinely enjoy building pet care into my daily routine. I’m active, enjoy walks and outdoor time, and naturally structure my day around consistency and attentiveness. Because I have a dog of my own, caring for pets is already part of my everyday life, including walks, feeding routines, playtime, comfort, and making sure pets feel safe and settled. I’m home frequently and able to provide regular supervision, attention, potty breaks, and updates throughout the day. I believe pets do best when they feel safe, calm, and comfortable, so I try to maintain consistent routines and pay close attention to their individual personalities and needs. In my home, I provide a clean, quiet, and relaxed environment with regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and supervision. I’m mindful of overstimulation and always make sure pets have space to rest and decompress if needed. In a client’s home, I respect the pet’s established routines as closely as possible — including feeding schedules, walk routines, medications, crate preferences, and house rules. I also understand how important communication is, so I provide regular updates and photos to help owners feel at ease while they’re away. Safety, attentiveness, and trust are extremely important to me, and I care for pets with the same level of responsibility and compassion I would want for my own dog.

About: I’ve taken care of all of my pets since a very young age. I love every animal I see as if they are my own! Animals bring me so much joy and I wish for them to have the same happiness. I try to pay attention to body language to know what they are telling me especially when we do not know each other yet. I’ve worked as a dog nutritionist at a place called Must Love Dogs (which I certainly do!) I always want to learn more, do more, and constantly be better for the animals in the world even if I’m only able to impact a few. I have experience with dogs who need a lot of support physically (wheelchairs, lift up harnesses, bathroom assistance) as my own German Shepherd needed all of these things later in life. I may have lost count of how many times I was peed on or had to clean the floors, but I wouldn’t change any of it for the world. I hope to honor him everyday and share my love with other fur babies as much as I can. My love for animals is endless. My goal is to be able to fill my days with all sorts of animals I can love on and bring joy to. I am available any day or time for drop in visits, playtime, feedings, and walks! I currently have a dog and a cat. I take my dog for walks and try to provide plenty of play time, snuggles, and other forms of enrichment for him every day. My kitty is still young and loves playtime, being brushed, and always wants snuggles in the morning which I am always happy to provide! My pets are my babies and every animal I see automatically becomes a baby. I had a special needs German shepherd who was in a wheelchair and needed a ton of special care and attention. I’m not afraid to do the dirty work that pets need to thrive and be happy whether that’s my own pets or my clients. I’d treat them as my own.

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, personalities, and medical needs. Alongside providing loving day-to-day care, I’ve also fostered senior dogs and supported animals with health conditions such as diabetes and Cushing’s disease, giving them the patience, attention, and gentle care they deserve. I understand how important trust and communication are when leaving your pet with someone else, and I strive to create a safe, calm, and loving environment where every pet feels comfortable, happy, and cared for like family. I currently work a remote job and have a very flexible schedule. I help care for the pets at my house but there are three other people able to help. Just chat about your plans are we can make it work! I have 3 dogs of my own. And they are the babies of the house! We take them for regular walks, to the dog park and out in the yard. Two of them are seniors with arthritis so massages are included every evening after dinner.

“Evan rules! My dog Ding and I live in Grand Rapids and we came to visit Ann Arbor this past weekend. I wanted to duck into an art show Sunday afternoon so I reached out to Evan about watching Ding for a few hours. Evan was super accommodating and his communication was great so I went ahead and booked a stay with him. We arranged to meet a little early and upon meeting him I knew my guy was in good hands. He asked all the right questions and his chill demeanor immediately had my (sometimes anxious) guy at ease. When I picked Ding up a few hours later he’d been fed, walked, and cared for a was clearly tired and happy. All around great experience. Evan is clearly a guy that loves dogs, and I would leave my best friend with him again in a heartbeat. Thanks Evan!”

“Paula took such wonderful care of our dog Mozzie. We cannot recommend her enough. We rarely leave him with anyone due to his separation anxiety issues but she was awesome helping him adjust and feel comfortable. We were thrilled to find such a caring and thoughtful pet sitter. Paula was also very helpful when we needed to pick Mozzie up at a different time than originally scheduled and she was kind enough to reassure us that he was adjusting well. She took him out for long walks and sent pictures early in his stay. We would have Paula watch our dog again in a heartbeat!”

About: I’ve been caring for loving animals since I was 11, and over the years, family, friends and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk and look after their pets with consistent compassion, patience, and genuine affection. I’m currently working part-time so I’m home throughout the week. I’m available to pet sit, dog walk or provide a midday potty break. Mostly during the week however my schedule is flexible. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routines closely, provide gentle companionship, keep their environment clean and comfortable, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and stress-free while their family is away.

About: Hi! I’m TJ (they/he) Since joining Rover in 2022, I’ve cared for a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, multi-pet households, and even a bearded dragon. I also have two cats of my own and regularly care for 3 dogs and 4 cats during the week, so pet care is already a big part of my everyday life. Through my experience, I’ve developed a thoughtful and adaptable approach to caring for pets with different personalities, comfort levels, and energy levels. Whether that means keeping up with feeding routines, fresh water, potty breaks, litter box care, playtime, treats, or helping a pet settle down and feel comfortable, I always try to adjust my care to each pet’s individual needs. I also have experience with overnight stays and caring for both dogs and cats in the same home. I pay close attention to behavior and routine, keep the environment clean and low-stress, and communicate with owners if anything comes up so I can care for their pets the way they prefer. I do work late nights most of the week, but I strive to keep my schedule as flexible as possible :) I approach every booking with the same care and dedication I’d want for my own pets, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Please note that while my legal name appears on my profile, I prefer to go by TJ. I’m excited to meet your pets and provide them with personalized, dependable care! I always make sure to spend as much time with my pets as possible and take care of their needs to let them know they are loved:) I have two cats of my own, so I know how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and secure in their environment. Caring for them is part of my everyday routine, from feeding and fresh water to litter box care, attention, and making sure they feel at ease in their space. I’ve also been regularly caring for 3 dogs and 4 cats during the week since July 2025, so I understand the importance of following each pet’s routine carefully and providing dependable, attentive care while their owners are away.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Macon

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Macon is $28 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $28 per day. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 447 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Macon. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

As of October 2026, there are 447 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of MI. Enter your address or desired location to see which available sitters are closest to you.

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 MI 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 447 sitters in Macon, 88% 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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
