Dog Walking in Lake Aumond, Augusta, GA

About: Whether it’s a high-energy puppy who loves to play fetch or a senior dog who prefers cozy naps and gentle walks, I tailor my care to fit each dog’s unique needs. I’ve handled everything from feeding routines and medications to cuddle sessions and zoomie breaks — and I love every minute of it! Your dog isn’t just a guest — they’re treated like family. As a full-time dog care provider, my schedule revolves around the well-being and happiness of your pet. I’m available throughout the day, offering flexibility to meet your pup’s needs, whether it's early morning walks, midday playtime, or frequent potty breaks. I prioritize consistency and reliability, ensuring that each dog gets the attention, care, and exercise they deserve — every single day. With my full-time dedication, I’m able to provide a personalized experience for each dog, whether it’s a quiet day at home or an adventure-filled outing. Rest assured, your pup is always my top priority! I have 1 walk, and 1 drop in for dogs outside my home scheduled daily. This requires me to be outside the home at a time for a maximum amount of 1.5 hours per each visit depending on the distance and length of visit. Please prepare accordingly if your pet requires crating, diapers, or anxiety support during my appointment times. Potty break and treats are provided before I leave and after I return. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I've ensured that all play areas are free from hazards. I take every precaution to provide a safe space for dogs of all sizes. Pet first aid kits are in home and with us on adventures. Medicines like dog calming peanut butters and digestive help for dogs with diarrhea are on hand at no cost. I will send you a message for the ok-go to use them if they're needed. Any medications or soothing helps you have are needed and appreciated in your dogs overnight bag during their stay. Each dog gets it's own drawer so medications, treats, doggy bags, etc. don't get mixed up with other pets items during their stay. I have equipment for administering liquid medication as well. You can relax knowing your dog is in caring hands, receiving the attention, love, and supervision they need. With plenty of cozy spots for naps and lots of opportunities for play, your dog will feel right at home — and you’ll feel confident knowing they’re in a safe, loving environment. **PLEASE READ: It's rare, but on occasion I find special care and fees must be applied to some dogs I sit for. I prefer transparency so I've written the rest of this section so there are no surprises. For dogs that are found to have a penchant for rolling in poop, dogs with diarrhea that requires more than baby wipes, dogs that potty inside my home and on my belongings, and dogs that destroy belongings or furniture - any needed dog baths, privates grooming, cleaning costs, and repairs will be added to the stay or negotiated through Rover support depending on the damage. Incident documentation and photographs will be provided to you in our visit conversation. Prices for grooming will be as listed below in, "A Typical Day" and on the menu. Cleaning will be $5 for each inside potty. I can purchase diapers for owners and add them to the visit fees to prevent further necessary indoor potty cleanup. If extensive damage is done we will go through Rover. If you are aware your dog has any of these problems, please notify me before hand. I'm better able to prevent these things from happening if I know in advance and we can plan better together for the care your dog will need during their stay. Dog diapers must be provided for dogs with the bad habit of going potty indoors or for dogs in heat. I provide restroom breaks every 2 hours maximum but this is sometimes not enough for some pets. Crates are required for dogs with destructive habits. This is to ensure a safe, disease-spreading free, hygienic environment for your pet, other pets staying with us, and our family. I do 1 walk and 1 drop in for pets outside my home a day. So for pets that need crating: treats are given going in and coming out of their crate when I leave and return for positive reinforcement. Time crated lasts no longer than 1.5 hours. Potty breaks are given before and after crating. Crating will be utilized if provided during indoor potty clean up to keep your pet away from the initial bleach treatment. If not provided, pets will separated from the area by going into the bathroom. Crating is not used for time outs in our home, only safety. Dog crates remain open as a safe space for your dog to retreat to unless I'm out of home. Other than my dog care outings, I or my husband are always present.**

“Dorothy was such a pleasure and our dog loved her. She was so wonderfully accommodating. Dorothy will definitely be our go-to for future needs (as her extremely busy schedule allows).”

About: My services include the basic outside time and feeding times, but leave room for walks, baths, and lots of playtime at the pet owner's discretion. I've worked with animals for over 20 years, have learned basic training techniques, been a pet/farm sitter for several families, and have dealt with a variety of breeds (and sizes + ages). Currently, I am living between the Athens, GA area as well as the Augusta, GA area and am happy to accept clients in both regions! I graduated from the University of Georgia with a degree in Animal Science and have decided that I want to devote my life to working with animals. Heading on vacation? Need a dog walker? Let's chat and see if we'll be a good fit! If you're a new client, I'd love to set up a time to meet prior to booking. I'm looking forward to getting to know you and your four-legged friend(s)! __________ Why do I love pet sitting? I've been a dog-lover my entire life. I grew up with cats, and decided that for my 16th birthday I wanted a dog instead of a car. I grew up volunteering at the local CSRA Humane Society - from dog walking to helping the vet tech there, my love for animals grew. It’s where I adopted my first dogs, Lorraine and MJ. It's my passion for animals that then led me to study Animal Science in college, and through my studies, I gained valuable experience with a variety of species. I am happy to watch your dogs, cats, horses, goats, chickens, reptiles, and the like! Do I have experience administering medication? Yes; I have spent several years working alongside a vet tech, and have become comfortable administering a variety of medications and treatments. Providing top-quality animal care is my priority! I work full time as a pet + farm sitter as well as do some freelance work on the side. My schedule is flexible depending on the needs of your pets. I do not provide care in my home at this time. Care will be dependent upon the environment of the location in which I am providing my services.

“Hannah is such a great and reliable dog walker! She was great about communicating and sending updates and has always given plenty of notice if something came up to change the schedule on any day. Two thumbs way up!!”

About: I absolutely love playing and taking care of animals. I grew up around animals since I was born. Any job required will get done and you will be more than satisfied with my services. I can help potty train, help with tricks, bathe the animal (if you want), & keep them happy during my visit with them or their visit with me in my home. I absolutely don’t like animal abuse so I will not hurt your love one or hit them for their mistake. I simply take care of the issue (ex: using bathroom in the house) by knowing to take them out every so often. I’m very nice and will take care and love on your pet(s) as if they were my own! Overall, please book me early in advance as my schedule can fill up. I also take care of your home as it’s my own and can help with watering plants, making sure trash goes out, getting the mail everyday and I will clean up my area when I stay at your house. I want to make you feel better when you turn home and have to do as little work as possible. I’m currently a college student onto becoming a nurse. I have plenty of time on my hand to accommodate your needs for your sweet pets I currently have a fenced in yard and have two smaller pups. One is more a senior so she’s constantly in bed but the other one has full energy and loves to be friendly with another pups to play with.

About: How owners want there furry friends to be loved is how they will be expected and treated the best way possible! They will be cared for in the best way possible. I let out or walk dogs in the morning and during my lunch time I walk them again and right after work I walk them again. And right before bed I walk them again. How ever the owner wants me to take care of there furry friend I take care of them how they are expected to be loved

“Lauren is my go-to walker for Annie. She is very communicative and pays attention to any changes or concerns. Puppies aren’t always easy, but Lauren is patient and really spends time with her from when she was a baby. Love that she now can take Annie on rigorous walks to expend puppy energy! Highly recommend Lauren :)”

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was young. Now I have 3 cats, 1 white German shepherd, and also a baby hamster. I’ve walked my neighbors dogs since I was 12 up until 16 when I moved. I also potty trained and taught my pets tricks by myself. Since I live in a dorm now I only have my cat and hamster with me. My dog is being taken care of by my parents. But pet care is a daily thing for me I can do anything you need and ask of me, from walking them to keeping them active and feeding them. I’m also available to accompany them overnight at your house.

About: Growing up my family always had tons of animals around! Our house had four dogs in our house all at once! I love dogs and cats, and am very comfortable around them. I know how to take care of all different ages, breeds, and sizes. I also have experience with taking care of chickens, goats, and ducks as well! I have 3 cats and one dog. Taking care of pets comes very natural to me as I love all animals! I am a full time Registered Nurse at Wellstar MCG in Augusta. I work night shift, with a varying schedule. Please feel free to message me even if my calendar shows I am unavailable because we may be able to work out a time for me to help take care of your pet! In your home, I will make sure I give your pet the full love and attention they need! I am able to feed your pet or do anything else that is needed!

About: I chronicle each day with a text message or email with photos of your pet. (Written 1st person from your pet). Walks in different parks each day at least twice a day. I care for each pet as if it is my own. I lost my shih Tzu 9/17 who I had for over 10 years after my mother died. I've had 3 retrievers and 3 cats at the same time. My home is their home. I adhere to a client's needs and desires for their pets. I am available 7 days a week for full time and part time sitting and care. My schedule is flexible. I work full-time; however, I come home during the day to let your pet out and also go for a walk. I live in the Forest Hills area of Augusta in a house with a fenced-in backyard and screened in porch. I take your pet on walks along the Augusta Canal, downtown on the river and also on campus at the Summerville Campus at Augusta University. If your pet sleeps in the bed or on furniture, then this is their home away from home. I currently work full-time and come home at lunch to walk and let your pet out. My days off vary weekly. I will only care for one pet at a time unless the owner has two. I have a fenced in backyard where they can run or hang out. If a pet is allowed on furniture and sleeps in bed, then this is their home away from home. I allow pets on furniture and sleep in bed with me. I always send pictures of their pets and details about what we have done for the day. I do not own any pets - I cannot change the information in my profile.

“Nicole was punctual, friendly, and sent some great pictures of my pup! Thanks again!”
