“Extremely nice and caring. My wife and I were very comfortable leaving our dog with her for a weekend. She treated him as though he were family and there were no complications. We will definitely ask for her again in the future!!”
“Janai really cares about making sure the dogs are comfortable and enjoy their stay. She sends pictures to keep you updated. She is accommodating. She even went out her way to throw Queenie a birthday party!”
“Extremely knowledgeable in her medical care for pets. She takes creat care to ensure your pet stays healthy, and has an emergency plan in place. She even gave me recommendations on what I can do to keep my babies healthy. Would definitely recommend for pets needing more detailed attention.”
About: Hi! I’m a psychology major at Augusta University and currently work as an RBT supporting autistic children, which has made me patient, attentive, and very comfortable building trust through positive reinforcement. I’ve loved dogs my entire life, especially after owning and training my German Shepherd for 8 years, and I now have a puppy of my own who keeps me enjoying daily walks, park time, and training every day. (For boarding, she would stay with my family so your pet would have my full attention and a calm space.) I especially like working on basic positive reinforcement with treats or a clicker when wanted. I love petting and getting to know every dog I see, so any chance to spend time with dogs is something I genuinely enjoy. I have open availability! Sometimes I may have an appointment or time commitment, but generally I am free throughout the week. I don’t have any scheduling or preference issues with overnight, extended, or evening hours either. I live in a townhome with a fenced patio. The patio has dirt/grass for going potty, a concrete center, and a backdoor that opens to a walking path. I have two floors with the bottom floor being hardwood (accident friendly!). For crate-preferred pets I have a 48in kennel (deep cleaned before and after use), or if crate-averse there is a guest bedroom that would be situated. I bring my own doggy bags and leash, but can use whatever is preferred. If desired I also have Buddy Trainers mini training treats that can be used for positively reinforcing your pet. My default approach is to focus primarily on your pet’s comfort rather than training, with the option of passive training being added into that approach. If boarding, I could take your pet on walks around the very dog-pro community where there are consistently opportunities to socialize, explore, and play in the paths available. Also with boarding my puppy would not share the space and would be at my family’s throughout your pet’s stay. Regardless of whether your pet is boarding at my home or if sitting at your’s, I have no problem deep (and properly) cleaning any accidents that come up. My approach with all pets, especially dogs, is positive reinforcement through doing things they enjoy. I try to set your pet up for success by matching their energy and minimizing any reason to feel anxious, sized up, or uncomfortable in general.
“Becca accepted a last minute booking for us and I felt super secure with our Obie staying with her the whole time. She sent lots of pics and made it stress free!”
“Alexandria was very kind and treated our boy, Diego very well. She was always available to answer questions or send pictures and we had absolutely no issues with her or her husband.”
“Kim is a great sitter, she took good care of my dog Odie, walking and playing with him. He came home happy and well taken care of. Thank you Kim, I’ll be booking with you again.”
“I couldn’t be more pleased with the care Steven provided for my pup, Abby! From the moment we met, it was clear he had a natural connection with dogs and a genuine love for animals. Abby was happy, well-exercised, and clearly well-loved while I was away. Steven kept me updated with messages, which gave me great peace of mind. It’s always a little nerve-wracking to leave your pet with someone new, but Steven exceeded all expectations. I returned to a happy, healthy pup. Highly recommend Steven to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. I’ll definitely be reaching out to him again in the future!”
“Emily was more than amazing! My doggo had the BEST time ever. I love that she sent updates and pictures throughout his stay and let me tell ya, he was WORE out when he got home. We will definitely be using Emily again for future dog sitting needs!”
“Kristina was so sweet and had great communication throughout the stay! She took amazing care of my three pups, and they all seem very happy. My dogs also seemed to love spending time with her pups. We’ll definitely be booking with her again soon!”
“Gena was amazing- she watched our baby for almost 2 weeks, which is the longest we have ever left him. She sent us updates and pictures, and I could tell she treated him as if it was her own pup. Will absolutely be booking with her again.”
“It was my first time using Rover and I loved it! She is attentive and understanding. You can tell she loves the animals that she takes care of. With it being my first time away from my dog, especially with Maxi being under the care of a stranger, I was worried and have been missing her even more. Genesis gave me updates and sent me pictures of Maxi, which calmed my nerves. 10/10 would definitely book again!”
“If I could give 10 stars I would. She sent us pictures and videos of our Kira and kept us updated the entire time. Her dog was friendly and sweet to our dog it made the whole experience better for her. I would 100% recommend Natalie!! She is very welcoming and amazing!!”
“Milo seemed to enjoy his stay with Joshua, and I truly appreciated Joshua's flexibility with me when I had to extend Milo's stay unexpectedly! Milo says "thanks" for a great vacation!”

Jessica took fabulous care of my little girl. She asked lots of questions about her care and sent me pictures several times a day. She was super responsive when I asked how Shelby was doing and I felt very comfortable leaving my girl in Jessica’s hands. Thank you so much
Brittany was absolutely amazing with my baby, RUDI! From the moment I dropped him off, I knew he was in good hands. She kept me updated every day with pictures and was always very communicative, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. When we picked RUDI up, he was happy, well cared for, and smelled absolutely amazing! It’s clear that Brittany truly cares about the pets she watches and treats them like her own. Thank you again, Brittany, for taking such great care of my baby. I would definitely recommend you to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter!
Wow wow. Tamara is awesome. She took very good care of my 4 pups, and sent me pics while I was cruising in the middle of nowhere. This is my first time and will book again. Highly recommended. Thanks Tamara, you have earned 5 stars from me, my husband and my daughter.
Ms. Alexis was absolutely amazing watching Biscuit! She was so accommodating and helpful as we had a sudden funeral to attend. Biscuit was extremely well taken care of and if you need someone who will truly love and take care of your pet, I 100% recommend using Ms. Alexis

There are 224 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Augusta. About 94% of Augusta sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

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 pet, 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.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
