“Knox loved being with Amanda for hod first Doggy Day Care experience in Savannah. When we arrived to pick him up we could see how happy he was to be in her home and having a great time playing.”
“My pup Channa is a bit new to the world and so getting to know other dogs seemed to be a real treat for her. Jennifer was super great about sending pics and vids that made me smile! Thanks Jen”
“Our Chocolate Lab spent the day with Marston and his 2 pups while we explored Savanna. This is my first experience using Rover and it is intimidating to leave our sweet Charlie with someone we do not know. I read his reviews and was confident I was making the right decision. Once we met him and his dogs I knew Charlie was in good hands. Charlie ran right in to party. He sent pictures of their adventures. Charlie came home exhausted. I highly recommend Marston.”
“I had to travel to Savannah for work and took my dog so I wanted to find somewhere for her to go during the day while I was working. I’m so glad I found Eric. He took good care of her and she had fun! I would def use Eric again if I am back in Savannah.”
“Abby was great with our two Goldens. Maddie didn’t seem to be too crazy about Winston & Rosie, but Abby separated them and everything was fine. She kept me updated throughout their stay and sent lots of pictures. We felt totally at ease knowing our pups were well taken care of while we went sightseeing, etc…”
About: I have been around animals all my life and grew up with cats and dogs in the house. Currently have 3 dogs and 2 cats back home. From kittens and pups, to senior pets, I’m more than comfortable with the needs of any age/breed I am currently a student at scad. My schedule is flexible: I am unavailable Monday and Wednesday mornings and Tuesday/Thursday evenings from 1:30-4:30pm. The sooner a date and time is set is the sooner I can take care of your beloved ones! I cherish all animals as more than just a pet. I believe they deserve the world as we are a part of their whole lives.
“First off, our plans for pet sitting changed the night before we had to travel. Although our request was very last minute she accepted and for that we are grateful. Having daycare made our stay in Savannah more enjoyable as we wouldn’t have been able to take our pup with us most places we visited. Kylie was great with our clingy 5 month old Bostie. He got a chance to socialize with her pets. Everytime we dropped him off he got excited to see Kylie. She gave us updates during the day. Which we appreciated seeing as this was our first time leaving him since we got him. We highly recommend her services and will rebook if we bring him with us to Savannah in the future.”
“Austin has been watching my 7month 5lb maltipoo for a few months and has been nothing less than AMAZING ok! an I don’t trust NOBODY with my son. Austin dog sits dogs NOT just one but multiple at a time sometime an he’s always making sure that all the dogs get along however today when I dropped him off I notice he had a larger black dog and my maltipoo was pulling to get back in my car which is strange cause he never does that. I didn’t think nothing of it but upon picking him up Austin inform me that he had to contact the big dog owners( Micah Y in the reviews) to come pick him up, for multiple reasons but the main one was because his big ass nipped at my dog . I was pissed! So before judging off of one bad review that made absolutely no since an doesn’t represent the type of sitter Austin is please take it from me he is amazing an you should definitely book him he’s very reliable an keeps me informed throughout the day to ease my mind. He even keeps him over night if I get on the road 5 stars all around the board . So Micah Y get your dog under control or take him with u when you go out of town because apparently he can’t live with out u an also your bit not just my dog but Austin also.”
“Molly treated my dog Mia like an absolute queen! My boyfriend and I last minute decided to take a trip to Savannah and needed a sitter for a day. Molly responded quick! She let Mia bathe in her pool and come in and out of the house as she pleased. Would recommend her services!”
“Derv did a wonderful job looking after our senior, high maintenance dog for the day. She even took professional grade photos that she shared with us while we were out. Highly Recommend!!”
About: Pet owner and lover for 30+ years. My husband and I have spent the last few years pet sitting across the country. We have taken care of dogs, cats, birds, snakes, and geckos. We have settled down in Savannah and would love to continue spoiling and loving on fur babies. We have a fenced in yard and I walk a couple miles every day and would love a four-legged companion to walk with me. Pets are allowed on our furniture and can sleep where they choose! My husband and I are both retired so our schedule will fit your schedule. Both of us are home most days and are rarely both gone. We have a fenced yard and walk a few miles a day. I would love to walk your pet as often as needed. Our home is a one story ranch and will be easy for your pet to get around.
“Izabella was so wonderful! She took very great care of my poodle, Stella while I was out for a couple hours. Izabella was very responsive and was a great listener to my dogs needs. I am thrilled with how wonderful this experience was especially since it was a last minute booking. Next time I’m in town I will for sure reach out again!”
About: I’m a warm-hearted animal lover with a deep connection to pets of all kinds. I’m also a Reiki Master, offering gentle energy work to help anxious or stressed pets feel calm and at ease. Since I work from home, my schedule is flexible almost every day. I’m happy to accommodate last-minute bookings whenever possible — just send a message and we’ll figure out what works. I keep a calm, low-stress environment with no other dogs in the home, which is ideal for pets who are nervous around other animals or just prefer one-on-one attention. My backyard is fully fenced, so there’s plenty of room for safe play and bathroom breaks without worry.
“Karen was great. My dogs had never been to a sitter or daycare before so they were a bit apprehensive but she was very good with them and they took to them very quickly. She sent me updates throughout the the day. Everything went well”

I live locally in the Landings and I work from home, which means your pets will get plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day in a quiet, smoke-free, child-free environment. I also have a fenced in yard for safe outdoor play and potty breaks. My two friendly dogs absolutely love having visitors and get along wonderfully with both dogs and cats. Whether your pet stays with us for boarding, I stay in your home, or I stop by for drop-in visits, I’ll make sure they feel loved, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I know how important peace of mind is when leaving your furry family members, and I’ll treat your babies like they’re my own. We can’t wait to meet them! I work from home, so I have a flexible schedule which means your pets will get plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. For in home visits, I am dependable with visit times. I know how much peace of mind matters when leaving your pets, and I’ll treat yours like family while you’re gone.

If your dog is crate-trained or prefers their own space, I’m also happy to crate them as needed for sleeping, feeding, or downtime based on your routine and preferences.
“Mallory was wonderful with Chalant! From the very beginning, I felt completely comfortable leaving him with her, and it was obvious that he felt comfortable too. She was incredibly caring and accommodating, and Chalant came back happy and clearly very loved. It gave me such peace of mind knowing he was in great hands. We would absolutely love to see Mallory again whenever we’re back in Savannah. Highly recommend! ❤️🐾”

My pup LOVED his time with Frankie and Levy! We are so grateful that she agreed to take care of Parker for two days on a short notice. She sent updates throughout the day which was very much appreciated. We are already looking forward to our next trip in Savannah!
Shelby took great care of our fur babies—one of whom is aging with shaky back legs. We appreciated how that didn’t bother her one bit and she handled our old girl with care. It was raining buckets that night but Shelby has a nice fenced back yard and was able to take the dogs outside for their breaks despite the weather.
This was a last-minute trip. We arrived at Tybee Island and, since we had never taken Lalo to the beach, we had no idea that dogs were not allowed. We found ourselves in a tricky situation and didn’t know what we were going to do. However, Alejandra saved our lives when she sent us a message offering to take care of Lalo. Her help was invaluable and allowed us to enjoy our visit without worries.

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 Thunderbolt 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 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 .
