“Was great with the dogs and very thorough with meeting them and learning their routine. Spent the time to give them good walks and lots of love. Also wiped down surfaces she touched with lysol wipes before leaving.”

About: I have experience with all kinds of animals including horses, goats, and chickens. Dogs are the best. I can't remember a time where I did not have a dog in my life. Originally from TX in the US marines me and my wife have a lovely Australian Shepherd named Gracie who is our best buddy 🙌🏻 we love her so much. We take her for long walks everyday and she eats homemade food. I am looking for a 2nd job, and pet care would be an amazing 2nd job. I can care for the pet on weekends, and once I get off work. My normal work week is Monday-Friday 6am-430pm or 0600 to 1630 Honestly probly depends on the pet, younger dogs especially puppies need more attention than older dogs, and older dogs may have different needs. It's case by case basis, on what each pet needs. I do like to play with the dogs I care for.

About: Hey, call me Sunny! I've worked with dogs for several years now! I work at Mid City Animal House and do at-home pet care on the side. I love all animals so much, but I'm very partial to dogs. I love spending time with them and taking plenty of pictures! I have people recommend me very often for pet care to others. I believe in going above and beyond! As previously stated, I work at Mid City Animal House full time, so I do have a bit of a limited schedule. I work from either 6:40am-12pm or 12pm-6pm give or take. But I'm always open to discussing working around these times! I have prior experience with staying at clients homes for extended periods of time. I believe in respecting your space and your animals. I clean up after myself and any messes your pet may make. I respect privacy and any areas of your home you may not want me to enter. I also have experience with administering oral medications for any pets who may need it.

About: I have some prior pet care experience-such as cleaning messes, feeding, bathing, and handling excrements. Smelly, loud, and nosey felines and canines don’t phase me. I have a soft spot for senior fur babies. I work full time during the week. Weekday availability would vary from week to week. However, I am free to do check-ins and walks on weekend mornings and afternoons. Creating a safe space and building trust among pet and pet owner is my top priority. I am always one to ask questions when needed. I would always handle animals the way their pet parents ask of me- as you know your pet best. Creating a list or writing notes on what is expected is greatly appreciated.

About: Hi! I’m Kaylee, a student at Loyola University New Orleans, and caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve had a variety of pets throughout my life, including dogs and cats. I have over 4 years of experience caring for animals and officially began offering pet-sitting services through Rover this summer. As a college student, my availability is based around my class schedule, and I’m available to pet sit whenever I don’t have classes. I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that gives your pet the attention and care they need while you’re away! I offer drop-in visits, dog walking, and house sitting throughout the New Orleans area. I care for pets of all personalities and make sure their individual routines, feeding instructions, walks, playtime, and other needs are followed closely! As a student at Loyola University New Orleans, I structure my daily routine around pet care visits, walks, and house sitting. My flexible schedule allows me to dedicate specific times throughout the morning, midday, afternoon, and evening for drop-ins and walks. For house sitting, I base myself directly at your home to ensure consistent supervision, evening companionship, and adherence to your pet’s exact routine. When caring for pets in a client's home, my top priority is maintaining their normal environment and daily habits to keep them relaxed and stress-free. I strictly follow all owner instructions, including meal portioning, fresh water refills, walking routes, and medication schedules. I keep living areas clean, secure the home upon entry and exit, and send clear photo and text updates during every visit so you always have full peace of mind.

About: I’ve had dogs in my life since childhood, so I understand the special companionship, comfort, and unconditional love they bring to our lives. Dogs truly become part of the family, and I believe they deserve to feel safe, loved, and cared for when their people are away. I recently said goodbye to my beloved 12-year-old dog, which deepened my appreciation for the bond we share with our pets. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog in someone else’s care, and I bring that same patience, attentiveness, and genuine love for animals to every dog I care for. I have a flexible schedule to meet the needs of each fur baby. I typically work weekdays but I can accommodate weekends and travel schedules. I follow the rules and guidelines of the home I am entering. I can also provide updates as requested to the owner regarding the pet's behavior and needs.

About: I’ve worked in the pet industry for several years now. I am a manager at a doggy daycare/boarding facility/grooming salon. I am knowledgeable about doggy behavior and body language. I can administer medication, with the exception of epidermal/needle syringes. I love being around dogs and getting to know their quirks and personalities. I’d be honored to take care of your pups! I am currently working full time and am available usually betweem 11am and noon on my lunch break. I am usually off of work by 2pm. I am able to host pets at my home as long as they do not have extreme cat aggression. Regardless I will limit interactions between your pet and my cat. When watching your pets at your home, I will make sure to keep my eyes and attention on them, and keep a look out for hazards.

About: I've had pets my entire life. I'm retired now and travel extensively for part of the year, so I'm unable to have pets of my own and thought this would be a great way to keep busy while I am in town. I have a doggy door and a large, gated backyard for games of fetch or hide and seek. I will provide a safe, loving home while you are away or drop-in if you so choose. When I'm in NOLA, I often work part-time from home. I'm retired so you could call me a homebody, and I'm often found working in my garden. In the fourth quarter of the year, I do travel until thanksgiving but will keep my calendar here updated. I am relatively flexible with scheduling. My son recently moved and took his Boston Terrier with him, so there are no longer any pets in my home. I have a large, fenced yard perfect for games of hide-and-seek or fetch, and I'm often in the back as well working on my garden. I do not have any plants that would present a danger. I love to take long, daily walks on the levee, which is only two blocks away...and would love to bring your pet along! I often have family visit, who also love pets.

About: I am a pet owner and a animal lover. I have experience with caring for dogs as well as cats. I own a Rottweiler, everybody should know how high maintenanced and how high in energy they are. Knowing that I can handle him with no ease, caring for your dog will be a beeze!!! I have worked with many animals and I am comfortable grooming, walking, feeding, playing with and caring for your pets. Growing up I've always volunteered at many animal shelters. I am an energetic undergraduate student at Jackson State University with a flexible schedule. I live with a family of five who also love pets. Your dog will get plenty of excercise. I am very flexible especially during the weekends. BOOK ME, I look forward to meeting your pets! Because I have the responsibility of making sure another dog is cared for! Enough food, water and necessities! I go above and beyond for dogs because they can’t talk to us so why not be attentive to them in every way possible I care for pets as if they’re were my own. I would expect the same care and attention for my dog from others if I were not around so I have no choice but to provide that to others dogs! Dogs/ cats are the greatest gift we could ever have asked for so I believe in treating them with love and care.

About: I’ve cared for pets since I was 8 years old and have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments—including my own, and dogs I’ve fostered. As a full-time teacher, I bring patience, calm energy, and structure to my care. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your fur baby, and I treat every pet like my own—with love, consistency, and a safe space to feel at home. I’m a full-time teacher and after-school tutor, so my availability is limited—but I’m happy to provide pet care on Saturdays only. I’m reliable, flexible on Saturdays, and love helping pups feel loved and secure while you’re away. I care for pets with patience, calm energy, and safety in mind. I can provide crate space if needed, and I keep a quiet, structured environment so your pup feels right at home. Whether your dog needs a relaxed space or gentle company, I’ll tailor care to their needs.

About: I adopted my traveling friend's cat, Zara, for a year and a half before my friend moved back home during lockdown. Zara and I moved a few times in New Orleans, but she adjusted to our home perfectly once we were settled. She snuggled me everyday and was patient with me while I worked in the service industry. I have also cared for ducks, chickens, two older pigs, and a parrot while one of my friends left the city (New Orleans) for her birthday vacation. During this same week, I cared for my disabled friend's blind cat, shrimp tank, goldfish, and two neighborhood cats she tends to. Even though these friends lived on opposite parts of the city, I split my time snuggling with the furry pets and attended to all pets who had medication or special needs. My love for animals has expanded to animals I never thought I'd get to love on! I hope you can welcome me as your pet caretaker while you are away from home. I'm currently working as remote tutor with students from around the world! I'd love to fill my time loving on pets who will enjoy a safe and calm environment while I teach the youth English. I would love to invest full-time into sitting so, I can focus on my private clients as I progress in my new career. I have extensive experience with disabled and abused pets. My care is specialized for all pets, but the ones who need a little extra care have somehow come into my life and never left my heart. What I offer can be healing for your loved furry family and also for me. I enjoy connecting with all animals, but have a deep love for the furry ones if you need a trusted sitter to give them the same love you would!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Augusta

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

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 .

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
