Pet care experience
Home Full-Time Care | Fenced Yard
⏳The average reply to a booking request is under 5 minutes. I provide full-time, in-home boarding and daycare in a calm environment with a large fenced yard. Since 2014, I’ve cared for more than 1300 dogs through Rover, including puppies, seniors, dogs requiring medication, and dogs with special needs. Your dog will stay in a safe, clean, and comfortable home with supervised access to the fenced yard, plenty of toys, fresh water, rest, and individual attention. My home and pet-care areas are kept clean and well maintained. I’m experienced with dogs of different ages, personalities, and care needs. Please share any medical, behavioral, mobility, feeding, or medication concerns before booking so I can make sure I’m the right fit for your dog. Mini home tours are available Monday through Thursday so you can see where your dog will stay. Fridays through Sundays are reserved for caring for current guests, so tours are not available during that time. To keep arrivals calm and reduce doorway excitement, I meet families outside and personally guide each dog into the home. Communication is important to me. I’ll send regular updates, photos, and notes so you know how your dog is doing throughout the stay. Dogs often have more activity and stimulation here than they do at home so that they may be extra tired or thirsty after a busy day of play. That is typically normal after an active stay.

Ratings and reviews
Today was Max’s first day of day care away from me. I can’t say enough good things about Ray. He is so easy to work with and kept me up to date with pics and texts. Max had a fabulous time and will be hanging out with Ray weekly from here on out. I know we’ve found our person!
Berkley had a great stay with Ray! We are new to Macon and it was comforting to know Berkley would be taken care of in a family home. Ray provided pics of Berkley to help ease our minds while we were away and was a great communicator! Highly recommend!
Ray is wonderful. Our fur baby took a few minutes to acclimate and Ray made sure he was fitting in at the pace our baby felt comfortable. Definitely recommend him! ✔️🐾
Ray was great. Very reassuring for this helicopter puppy mom. Highly recommend!
Very impressed with the ease of booking and the quality of care provided by Ray. He boarded my 5 month old golden doodle puppy for 3 nights. He communicated with me daily sending cute photos of my active pup. I give am giving a high recommendation for anyone considering using his services.
Ray took great care of Dottie while my family was out of town. He sent pictures and videos updates regularly. I am very pleased with our experience. Thank you for taking excellent care of Dot Dot!

Schedule
Pet care is the focus of my daily routine. I’m home full-time and accommodating whenever reasonable. Every day is shaped around the dogs in my care. I adjust feeding, playtime, outdoor breaks, rest, and individual attention based on each dog’s age, energy level, personality, and routine. Some dogs prefer a quieter pace with more rest, while others enjoy frequent play and activity. My goal is to keep each dog comfortable, engaged, and well cared for and safe throughout the day.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Safety, comfort, and cleanliness are central to how I care for every dog. My large fenced yard includes anti-dig protection, giving dogs a secure space to explore, play, and take outdoor breaks. Dogs are supervised closely, and I communicate promptly if I have any questions or concerns during their stay. I keep my home and pet-care areas clean, organized, and well-maintained. Bedding, bowls, and frequently used surfaces are cleaned and sanitized daily to help provide a healthy, comfortable environment. My goal is to create a calm, positive experience where each dog feels secure and well cared for. I adjust supervision, activity, rest, and handling based on the dog’s age, personality, energy level, and individual needs.
Pets
A typical day
A typical day includes a balance of outdoor play, indoor rest, and individual attention. Dogs can enjoy supervised playtime in the fenced backyard, whether they prefer running, exploring, sunbathing, or playing with compatible dogs. Dogs who are comfortable using the dog door may move between the house and yard. The covered porch provides a shaded place to relax and stay dry during light rain, while the indoor areas offer comfortable spots for naps, quiet time, and cooler breaks. I adjust the day to each dog’s age, energy level, and personality. Active dogs may enjoy more play and social time, while seniors and quieter dogs are given a calmer space to rest. Every dog receives regular supervision, affection, outdoor breaks, and one-on-one attention throughout the day. The goal is a comfortable routine with the right balance of play, rest, and companionship.
