House Sitting Augusta

“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog and cat sitter! We have used Catherine twice as our sitter. From the start, communication was clear, prompt, and professional. While we were away, she stayed in our home and treated it — and our fur babies — like her own. We received updates when requested, a photo, and thoughtful check-in that gave us peace of mind. It was obvious our pets were not just being “watched,” but truly cared for and engaged with. Zoie who can be particular was on schedule and fell right back into her routine when we returned . Trusting someone with your castle and your pet is a big deal. She exceeded expectations in every way. We would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for dependable, attentive, and genuinely compassionate care.”

About: I was raised with Boston Terriers. I can’t remember a time when one or more than one was not a part of my life. I love all fur babies though, size does not matter. I retired from the Federal Government after 30 years last September. I’m available and ready to help you provide care for your fur babie! I am able and willing to deliver whatever type of care you need to provide peace of mind for you, your family, and your fur babies.

About: I've lived with dogs my entire life and have never met a dog I can't connect with. I love dogs of all sizes and behaviors; I have experience counseling groups of kids at summer camp, so I have no trouble managing dogs in a group or with rowdy tendencies. I truly love all dogs and would love to meet yours! I am currently working part-time in St. Louis on the weekends, so I am available weekdays at any time. I have access to a car and the ability to be flexible with timing and distance as well, just contact me! I can work with any number and any kind of dog! I grew up with a couple dogs of different sizes and I currently live with 2 little ones, so I am comfortable handling any canine situation! This means I am more than happy to take on any responsibility/task requested, such as administering medication, engaging in frequent or constant activity, intently monitoring an animal for an extended period of time, etc. beyond, of course, walking & relieving your best friend(s)! I will always provide dilligent and careful care of both your pets and your home.

About: As a lifelong dog lover with 10 years of pet care experience, I know how important it is to find someone you can genuinely trust with your furry family members! I have firsthand experience caring for multiple dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and individual needs. From energetic, playful pups who love staying active to sweet senior dogs who need a little extra patience and attention, I understand that every dog deserves care tailored to them. I’m especially familiar with senior dog care, including assisting dogs with limited mobility, maintaining medication routines, and accommodating special feeding needs. I’m comfortable managing multiple dogs, following detailed care instructions, and making sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m dependable, attentive, and a big believer in maintaining your pet’s normal routine while you’re away. Whether that means walks, playtime, extra snuggles, or simply providing a calm and comfortable environment, my goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is in caring hands. I treat every dog like they’re one of my own and understand just how much trust goes into leaving your best friend with someone new! I work remotely full-time, which gives me the flexibility to incorporate pet care into my daily routine! As a pet owner myself, I’m already accustomed to balancing work with feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I understand that every pet has their own routine, and I’m happy to work with owners to maintain as much consistency as possible. My flexible work environment also allows me to accommodate different care needs throughout the week and on weekends, depending on availability. Whether your pet needs an energetic walk, a quick check-in, or some extra companionship, I strive to provide dependable, attentive care that fits their needs! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! As someone with multiple pets of my own, including experience caring for senior dogs with mobility challenges and specialized routines, I understand how important it is to provide a safe, attentive, and loving environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to respect their space, follow all instructions carefully, and maintain their pet’s established routine. I’m comfortable managing multiple pets, administering owner-provided medications according to instructions, accommodating special feeding schedules, and providing additional assistance to senior pets. I believe communication is essential to building trust, so I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos throughout each visit. I also take time to understand each pet’s personality, boundaries, and individual needs to ensure they feel comfortable and secure. My goal is simple: to care for your pets with the same patience, responsibility, and affection that I give my own!

About: I’ve cared for pets and homes across the U.S. and internationally with TrustedHousesittersdotcom—including month-long house and pet sitting stays in Thailand, Ireland, and England. As the founder of HomestewardZdotcom, I bring the same thoughtful, trustworthy care to animals as I do to homes and gardens. I’m also accustomed to working with special needs cats and dogs, including those with behavioral or medical requirements. I genuinely love animals and treat them like family, offering calm, attentive companionship and reliable routines. Whether it’s dogs, cats, or more exotic pets or horses, I ensure they feel safe, seen, and loved while you’re away. As the owner of HomestewardZ, where I offer handyman work, interior painting, and house/pet sitting, I have complete flexibility in my schedule. This means I can be fully available to care for your pets whenever they need attention—whether that’s daily walks, medication, or just quality time. Pet care isn’t a side gig for me—it’s part of a meaningful lifestyle rooted in trust, presence, and care. I care for pets exclusively in my clients’ homes, where they feel most comfortable and secure. I prioritize safety, consistency, and trust—following your routines closely, keeping the environment clean and calm, and giving your pets the attention and affection they need to thrive while you’re away. I treat every home with deep respect and every animal like a member of the family.

About: I love animals! I have always took care of all my family and friends pets! Dogs have been such a huge part of my life. I want to make your pet as happy as they make me! I work a full time job as a project manager!! But I’m always willing to go before and after work to give your animal the best care:) Caring for pets is very simple to me! Do not leave the dog unattended, follow the schedule the pet owners want me to follow. And give your animal love when you are not able to be there!

About: Hello, my animal care experience began when I was a child. I grew up on a farm, and learned animal care, and training. I have always loved animals, and felt and affinity for them. I have a background in human health care, but am well versed in animal CPR, and am experienced and comfortable administering medications including iv, and injections. I’m experienced caring for, and training pets of all ages, and stages of life. I love dogs and cats equally! I’m in the entertainment industry (musician) so I have a fairly flexible schedule. I often work on the weekends, but I will still have availability during that time. I’m not usually gone for more than 6 hours. I have no pets in my home currently. I live in a condo with a roommate. We have a small fenced yard, and a larger fenced area for dogs immediately adjacent to our yard. I love walking, and will typically walk dogs, unless there are reasons the dog can’t.

“Ranae was the best pet sitter we've ever used. I HIGHLY recommend her!! The dogs warmed to her right away, she was great at communicating, sent us adorable pictures of the animals every day, and left the house immaculate. We will use her again!”

About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats most of my life. From training puppies, to caring for older dogs who have needed round the clock medicine and care and everything in between. I have taken care of kittens/cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, lizards, fish, you name your pet and I have probably come into contact with it at some point. I have always wanted to become a veterinarian, but life took me in other directions, so now I show my love and support for the animal community by helping people take care of their fur babies. I am currently working 5 8hr shifts outside the home, but am available for walks, check-ins and other services! I am off by 215 every day so plenty of time in the evenings. My neighborhood is wonderful, I have plenty of nearby parks, as well as, a walking trail directly in my neighborhood. It is a very pet friendly place, with lots of other pets to interact with and also has a dog park. I usually only do healthy treats for training, but obviously will cater to whatever schedule or routine your animal needs.

“Allyson took great care of Maverick and he loved her - he’s sometimes selective in who he likes but he immediately felt comfortable with her. She sent me updates, left my house exactly as it was, and even picked up his poop in the yard. I had to change plans and times a few times and she was more than accommodating. I’ve already booked her two more times because I know I can trust she’ll take care of my pup.”

Megan B.

“Allyson was great with Sadie. She is normally a shy dog, but she warmed right up to Allyson and was cuddling with her in no time she kept me updated throughout the weekend and sent lots of pictures. Would definitely recommend using Allyson to take care of your dog she is great”

About: I’m an animal lover and pet owner just looking to help other pet parents. I can take your dog on runs or hikes if desired, or we can just go for a casual stroll. I’ve dog sat and house sat in the past, so let me give you some peace of mind when you are traveling! Your pets will be loved like one of my own and given the best care possible. I am in between jobs right now so I have lots of flexibilty, even on holidays! No pet is too big or too small and no task too hard! I have experience with dogs, cats, small animals, and horses. I have a flexible work schedule and can accommodate almost any needs at any time of day. Please reach out to me with your specific schedule and I will see what I can do to assist. I do not currently take pets in my home for boarding as I have a dog who prefers to be the center of attention. But I am willing to and comfortable with providing any sort of care in the comfort of your pet’s home. I am more than happy to facilitate outside activities like hikes, parks, or even just socialization outings. If your pet has any special needs at home, I am more than happy to listen and accommodate!

About: I have professional experience as a daycare manager in a boarding facility. I have cared for puppies, elderly dogs, and pups of many temperaments. Plus, I have photography experience - so you’re guaranteed to get some amazing pictures. Pet sitting is my full time occupation, so your pups will get my undivided attention while in my care. For overnight care, I may need to leave briefly to drop in on other pups at their home. I am very diligent about keeping your home secure while you are away. I can assure you that you will return to a home that is just as you left it.

About: HIGHLIGHTS: -Insured -Comfortable w/ large and small dogs and knows the different requirements in care -No kids in home -Dog kennels provided for when necessary, no need to lug yours with you -38 year old home owner w/ privacy fence in back yard -Work from home sitter -Regular updates and pictures -Has read dog psychology and taken dog training classes with my dog. I believe pets deserve respect and autonomy and I'll do my best to treat your babies like I treat my own boys. I've read a few dog psychology books so I do have a good understanding of different communication styles that dogs may have and I have experience with reactive dogs and elderly dogs as well. When I walk your dog, I have no problems communicating with strangers and setting boundaries. I am very protective of my animal clients peace and safety. I always err on the side of caution. With pets, I am gentle but firm and it creates an environment that dogs love. I love playing with dogs and engaging their minds. I also communicate with your pet to ensure they are happy (which room they prefer, how they like to be pet, how they like to be played with) and I tell them every day that you're coming back. I genuinely love each animal that I interact with and treat them how I'd want them to be treated if they were mine. I'm also punctual and communicative. My late dog was also reactive and could be aggressive, so I have experience dealing with large dogs that have strong boundaries. I work from home so I am available to stay with your pet all day long! When I do leave, it's usually never for more than 4 hours and I have a L crate and an XL crate that your babies can stay in if needed. For sitting in your home, I do bring my 6lb chihuahua. If your dog needs to be separated from small I have a large backyard with a privacy fence on all four sides. I have a 20 y/o but there is a pet gate that keeps the house in two parts. Your pet will not interact with my pet at all. Dogs have their own room and will be allowed free roam of one half of my home. It's a large space.

About: I've spent over 40 years caring for animals, from small dogs like Mini Dachshunds and cats to large breeds, including German Shepherds, Rottweilers, Dobermans, Chows, Pitbulls. I currently share my home with a long-haired German Shepherd and a beautiful long-haired domestic cat who are my babies. My daughter is also there while in college & has 2 cats so animals have always been an important part of my life, and to me, they're family, not just pets. In addition to caring for my own animals, I've provided pet sitting for friends and family, including multiple-dog and cat households. One of my most meaningful experiences has been caring for my German Shepherd following a serious attack that left him with very significant injuries. Helping him through his recovery gave me firsthand experience with the patience, attentiveness, and compassion required when an animal needs extra support. I'm comfortable administering oral medications according to instructions, maintaining feeding and exercise schedules, and adapting to each pet's individual personality and needs. Whether your pet is a tiny Dachshund, a large German Shepherd, or a beloved cat, I'll treat them with the same love, respect, and attention I give my own animals. My goal is to make sure you can travel with peace of mind, knowing your pets are safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. I've always seemed to have a special connection with animals, even those who are normally hesitant around people. There's a little shop I frequent with a resident cat who apparently doesn't warm up to many visitors. One day, she surprised her owner by jumping right into my arms! Moments like that mean the world to me. I've always believed animals are some of the very best judges of character. I currently work an interesting schedule that allows me several consecutive days off. I have a rotating schedule. One week I work Sun-Tues 6am-6pm and the next I work Sun-Wed. The days I work are 12 hr days. But depending on how close you are to my job (Bridgeton area) I could potentially check in on them on my hour lunch and then go there after work at 6pm.. I live in Illinois but I dont plan alot of things this time of year so I have pretty good availability. Shoot me a msg, we can probably work it out. Even holidays. Talk to you soon! :) I believe pets are happiest and most comfortable in their own familiar environment, especially when their family is away. My goal is to maintain their normal routines as closely as possible while providing a safe, loving, and stress-free experience. Before accepting a booking, I like to learn about each pet's personality, daily schedule, feeding instructions, medical needs, and any special behaviors or concerns. I also believe meeting beforehand is important so both the pets and their owners can feel comfortable with me. Safety is always my priority. I'm attentive to securely closing doors and gates, using appropriate leashes during walks, and being mindful of potential hazards. Having cared for my own German Shepherd through a serious recovery, I understand how quickly unexpected situations can arise and how important it is to pay attention to changes in an animal's behavior or well-being. I respect my clients' homes and privacy and will treat their property with the same care I give my own. I also believe communication is essential, so I'm happy to provide regular updates and photos to give owners peace of mind while they're away. Most importantly, I understand that I'm being trusted with two things that mean a great deal to someone: their beloved pets and their home. I take that responsibility seriously.

About: I have trained puppies, designed programs to solve behavior problems in adult dogs, cared for senior dogs, specializing in multi-dog households with a mix of all the above. I am currently designing software for a start-up idea so my schedule is very flexible. Ideal hours for day visits are between 8am - 9pm, overnight from 7pm - 9am “ish” and always available for emergencies. Different pets have different wants/needs so I will adapt my gameplan accordingly. Each visit will include some form of exercise, training and lots of love. My yard is fenced and my house is puppy-proofed. Lots of soft and shaded places to nap, inside and out. I use pest control and landscaping services so the yard is virtually free of stinging or biting insects and dangerous weeds or flowers. Clients can expect me to care for their pets and their property with utmost respect for house rules, privacy and courtesy.

We go on frequent walks and have play time throughout the day. I have a large fenced yard where pets can safely play, exercise, and enjoy some outdoor time.

About: Hey. My name is Ali, I train dogs and this is a cool way to do what I love! I treat my dogs as if they were mine children & would do the same for anyone’s pet in my care.
