“I can say that my finding Simone on Rover was divine providence! I was in desperate need of someone who could be a companion to my pupper while I was at work during the day. Pupper, Nova, got herself in a terrible habit of panic whenever I would leave the house. After adopting her from humane society, I needed more time to be able to instill good habits of calm and relaxation but also needed to be able to go to work. Having Simone look after her during the day and being able to train her in the evenings and on weekends has made a spectacular difference in her behavior! Simone was very responsive and sent lots of pictures. I was assured in knowing that Nova was being treated as a member of the family and receiving lots of love in my absence. I am forever grateful!! <3”
“Theresa was amazing with my dogs and when we ran into an issue getting back, was extremely understanding and empathetic. 10/10 would recommend and will be using her services again when we visit Savannah again! Thanks, Theresa! 🐾”
“Crystal and her family are AMAZING!!! Our pup goes once a week for doggy day care and also stays with Crystal for extended periods when we are traveling. They go above and beyond to make our Lola feel at home - walks, playtime, doggy friends, lots of love and pictures too - you name it, they do it! We cannot recommend Crystal enough, she is truly the BEST!!!”
“Kristina is a great pet sitter! Our dogs were happy and well taken care of in her home. She’s highly responsive and was great with our younger pup who is a little nervous. thankful we found her and will book again!”
“Cheyenne, her puppies, and family were so amazing to Astra! She made sure to update me often, and did amazing on keeping Astra on schedule! We would definitely recommend her services and can’t wait for Astra to visit again!”
“As a first time Rovee customer, I am very delighted with my experience. Jordan was very welcoming not only to Frankie but myself as well. She kept me informed bout his behavior from being with the other dogs, her 1 year old and even during feeding time. She was also understanding of my lateness picking him up. I am definitely booking Jordan again in the near future.”
About: I grew up around pets my as a child and have owned dogs for 32 years of all sizes and types. I have always been the go to person for everyone to care for their pets and i love it. I have no problem feeding, bathing, training or walking your pet as if it were my own. Our pets are our children as well and we need to care for them the best way we can. I am self employed and work my own schedule so I can care for your pet Friday -Tuesdays 9am-3pm. Different days or later hours can be arranged with at least a weeks notice. I have a fenced yard and can Kennel the dog if needed but for the most part I prefer for them to get a feel of my home and my rules.
About: I’ve raised two dogs as puppies and have extensive experience in training them. My current dog, Penny, is a rescue and loves to run around and play outside. I make sure to provide attentive supervision so the dogs feel comfortable and at ease. I work from home full-time so I have plenty of opportunities to let the dogs out throughout the day for potty breaks or play time. Weather permitting, we take long walks each morning after breakfast, and at night after dinner. I have a fenced in yard so my dog spends a lot of time outside running around or just hanging out. I also have a large screened in porch when she needs a break from the sun. Penny sleeps in my office (her room) next to the bedroom which is where other dogs would sleep as well. I don’t allow dogs on furniture or sleep in the bed.
About: I have owned and taken care of pets my entire life. I know what it feels like to leave your babies in the hands of others to care for. It is often a very uneasy feeling. But you can rest assured that I will care for your fur babies like they are my own, ensuring they are happy and loved everyday! I have tons of experience from raising and training puppies to senior care. I even have experience administering insulin by injection to diabetic dogs and cats. So no task is too difficult. I am home everyday so I have a very flexible schedule. I will care for your pets full-time, tending to all of their needs. I also have two amazing children who have been raised with pets since the day they were born and they are wonderful with animals. So, your fur babies will be showered with love and affection! Unless instructed otherwise, your pet will have free rein of the house to enjoy and relax. I have a super sweet 12 year old female Siberian Husky mix who loves everyone and everything. My yard is fully fenced and I live in a dog friendly gated community with our very own dog park! Your pup will be safe and secure, loved and well taken care of.
“Yvonne did a terrific job with our persnickety Shih Tzu, Fitz. She was patient and kind as he settled in, even after his hunger strike on day one. She sent pictures of him as we traveled, reassuring us that we had left him in the right place. Highly recommend Yvonne!”
“Trinity had a blast! She made some new friends. Our first time using Rover for dog sitting services but we are pleased with our new sitter. Recommend Deandreia. Trinity is a bit high strung but she handled her well. Thank you. We were able to enjoy or day and not worry!”

“Sarah is wonderful. She was very patient with me and my anxiety at leaving Dixie for the first time at someone else’s home especially with other dogs there. After going to her home with Dixie for a meet and greet, I trusted her right away. She is flexible and accommodating, and I would use her again without question.”

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Shellman Bluff
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 134 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Shellman Bluff. 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 Shellman Bluff 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.

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.
