“Nina was very kind and communicative about Chief when we needed someone to let him out a few times when we were out of town for the day. We would for sure book with her again:)”
“I highly recommend booking Meaghan as a pet sitter. She took care of my two cats and made sure to send lots of pictures and updates. She also took the time to meet the cats before the visit. She was so kind and professional!”
About: I love caring for my friends' pets when they're away for the weekend! I'm equally a dog and cat person and have experience looking after both. I'd love to give your pets the same care and attention while you're away! I have a really flexible schedule on the weekends, so I'm happy to work around your plans! I also enjoy getting some movement in the morning, so if your pup loves an early adventure, I'm more than happy to take them along. I can easily crate your animal if needed. I do not have a backyard area or balcony. Animals are free to roam around wherever they please.
About: I grew up with dogs and had a special bond with my family’s dog in college. She loved when I would take her on an “interval run.” I recently successfully fed my friend’s five dogs. Please, I would love to meet your dog(s) with you there to get to know them first. I am officially insured and bonded through Pet Sitters Associates in case of an inopportune incident taking place while my clients’ pets and homes are in my care. Insurance certificate available upon request if we move forward with a meet-and-greet. I work full-time 8 to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. I don’t mind getting up early to check on your fur baby. I work in the 30904 zip code, so I could potentially check on them during my hourlong lunch break if you live close enough. I work to ensure that a pet who is not allowed outside a certain door stays inside. When I fed my friend’s five dogs a couple of months ago, I was told one was an escape artist, but I successfully left out of the front door without her getting out. Please let me know what command words your pet is familiar with.
“Zaylie was absolutely amazing with Philly! From the very first walk, it was clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she works with. She was reliable, communicative, and always kept me updated with photos and notes, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Philly came back happy, exercised, and clearly well taken care of every time. You can tell Zaylie takes pride in what she does and goes above and beyond. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker!”
About: I have a genuine love for animals and experience caring for both dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, administering basic care, and creating a calm, safe environment. I pride myself on being dependable, communicative, and attentive to detail so your pets feel secure and you feel confident while you’re away. Caring for pets is something I truly enjoy, so I naturally build it into my everyday routine. I make time each day for walks, playtime, and plenty of attention, and I’m available throughout the week and on weekends to keep pets happy, comfortable, and on their normal schedule. I treat every client’s home with the same respect and care as my own, creating a calm, secure environment for your pets. I follow all instructions closely—from feeding routines to home preferences—and make sure doors, gates, and safety measures are always properly secured. I’m attentive, dependable, and provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pets and home are in good hands.
“Sachiho is great! First time being away from my pup who’s now a senior and she sends pictures and reports that make me feel so much better. Pictures absolutely make my day brighter??thanks for all you do”
About: I’ve taken care of my family’s cats and friends’ pups for years. I always offer plenty of snuggles, diligently take care of basic needs, and love to partake in house hangs or walks around the neighborhood! I’m currently in between finishing graduate school and my career in the medical field. I have much free time to care for and love on your fur babies! I greatly prioritize the safety of all precious animals! I always check for closed fences and safe streets before bringing a pup out to walk or play. I am highly aware of any open doors that could pose a risk to indoor kitties. Safety first!
“Hannah did an excellent job! The doggies were comfortable with her just a few minutes after meeting her, and her drop in visit today was great! All were happy when I got home! Thanks, Hannah!!”
About: I have over 5 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs. I’ve also always had dogs growing up. I’ve worked with dogs for years, where I gained experience caring for dogs with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ve also provided pet-sitting services in dogs’ own homes, giving them the comfort of staying in their familiar environment while their owners are away. In addition, I have extensive dog-walking experience and understand the importance of keeping every walk safe, enjoyable, and suited to each dog’s individual pace and personality. What sets me apart is my combination of professional daycare experience, in-home pet sitting, and dog walking. I’m dependable, attentive, and genuinely love getting to know each dog in my care. I treat every pup like my own and strive to give both pets and their owners peace of mind. 🐾❤️ Pet care is something I’m doing part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. My significant other travels for work, and I’m fortunate enough to be able to travel with him, so I’m able to adjust my availability depending on our travel schedule. I’m looking forward to using my flexible schedule to provide reliable, loving care for dogs and giving them the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. 🐾 I understand that staying in a familiar environment can help pets feel more relaxed, especially when their owners are away. I make sure doors, gates, and other areas are secure, follow their normal feeding, walking, and medication routines, and keep a close eye on their behavior and well-being. I also respect their home and leave everything clean and just as I found it.

I want to make sure they feel comfortable and trust me, which means going at their pace and doing what they enjoy.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Augusta
Carter did an AMAZING job watching Tocko on our mini vacation! He truly went above and beyond making sure we had peace of mind that our boy was well taken care of. He always sent pictures and made sure to include little details when writing us that made my wife the happiest! He should have more 5 star reviews and we will be more than happy to book with him again in the future!
Highly recommend!!! Meaghan not only accepted a pet sit for me on short notice but was a great communicator, kind and kept us informed. She was also super punctual and thoughtful about the meds she was giving and what our dogs needed. I had great peace of mind knowing she was caring for our babies while we were out of town.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Augusta stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Augusta choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Augusta with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Augusta. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% 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.
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.
