“Jacalyn is absolutely wonderful! We were away for 4 days, and she took care of our dog, Harley, as if she were her own. She was incredibly communicative and sent regular pictures and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. Harley was happy, healthy, and perfectly cared for when we returned. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving pet sitter!”
“Jordyn took such great care of Koda, and we couldn’t be happier with our experience! She was incredibly communicative throughout his stay, sending regular updates and lots of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. She was also very prompt in responding to messages, making the entire process easy and stress-free. It was clear that Koda was well cared for and loved while he was with her. We would absolutely trust Jordyn with Koda again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Quanisha was great with my baby Tosh! She accepted our booking last minute and was flexible to drop off and pick up. I took Tosh to the groomers before his stay and they trimmed him really low and cut him pretty badly around his neck. Quanisha made me aware at pick up which I truly appreciate. She sent tons of pictures and her children were sad to see Tosh go. We will definitely be booking with Quanisha again!”

I highly recommend Jordyn to anyone looking for a dependable, caring, and attentive pet sitter. She took excellent care of Rocco during his five-day stay and consistently provided updates, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. Her communication was wonderful, and I especially appreciated her flexibility and willingness to accommodate my needs. It was reassuring to know Rocco was in such capable and caring hands. I’m truly grateful for the level of care and professionalism Jordyn demonstrated and would not hesitate to book with her again!
Kimora was absolutely amazing! Truly outstanding! She has such a beautiful energy around her and I understand why animals love and trust her! I have a senior dog and Kimora is very knowledgeable when it comes to older dogs. I know my dog was safe and cared for. Checking in with Kimora was also easy and she sent updates and pictures every day! I will continue to always book with Kimora! ☺️🥰
Raven continues to be amazing with Dutchess! ❤️ I couldn’t ask for a better sitter. She makes Dutchess feel safe, loved, and right at home, and that gives me so much peace of mind when we have to be away. Raven keeps us updated with pictures and messages, and wes know Dutchess is being well cared for. What started as finding a sitter has turned into finding a second home for our girl. I’m so grateful for Raven and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and dependable. Dutchess will definitely be back!

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in McDonough 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. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
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 McDonough 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 McDonough.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in McDonough. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
You and your McDonough 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
