“Dorothy is a wonderful pet sitter. She expertly cared for our elderly German Shepherd and grumpy rescue Parrot. Our Shepherd has always suffered from a nervous tummy and had loose stools while we were gone and used the bathroom on the floor multiple times. Dorothy went above and beyond and shampooed the carpet every time without even asking her too. She sent updates and photos with every visit and even took the trash out. We would recommend her to anyone!”
“Valerie is awesome, she’s very attentive and knowledgeable about dogs. Highly recommend her. She sent us pictures and even went so far as to observe their bowl movements to see how their health was while we were gone. I will be using her in the future whenever we travel!”
About: I love all animals (except maybe tarantulas) and know how important it is to have a responsible person to care for your pets while you are away. As a former vet tech, I can identify issues early, know when they can be treated at home vs requiring a vet visit, and I can also administer medications and fluids. While I cannot board animals in my own home due to having two dogs of my own, I can't wait to cuddle with your pets while you're away and ensure they are well taken care of! I have worked remotely for the past 12 years. I am in between jobs at the moment but still only searching for remote roles, so my schedule is very flexible. I know it can be hard to trust a stranger in your own home so I thank you in advance for giving me an opportunity to prove that I am trustworthy, responsible, honest, and genuine. I promise will treat your home and your animals better than my own!
About: I love caring for animals and find it rewarding to help others with their best friends! I will take care of your 4 legged family member like they are my own! I am a high energy individual and would love to take your pup on a walk or snuggle up with your meowkins. I currently have a cat named Scarlett who likes to play fetch..a kitty named Watson who was feral and we have convinced that life with us is way better than life on the streets..Miles..who is true orange boy and a FIP survivor. I also have a pup named Marley that wandered into our yard 11 years ago and won us over with his kisses and snuggles under the blankets. Can’t wait to work with you and your family! I can work around a vast amount of drop in schedules to make what you need happen! I am off every weekend and every other Friday. Typically off by 5pm every day. But like I said- I can be flexible. I do have a fenced in back yard (privacy fence). I have a few different rooms within my house and can be flexible on the care that you want for your baby
“Nicole has such a calming way with our pups! She took great care of our girl Belle, sent lots of photos, updates and gave lots of floor cuddles! We will 100% book with Nicole again <3! Thank you!!!”
“Caitlin did an amazing job dropping in and taking care of our German Shepherd, Luna. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly made sure Luna was well cared for and comfortable while we were away. We really appreciated the daily picture updates—it gave us so much peace of mind. She also went the extra mile by bringing in our packages, which was such a huge help. We will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her to anyone needing a trustworthy pet sitter!”
“I cannot say enough GOOD things about Jennifer. She's timely, reliable, kind, and honest, and has been patient and caring with my small, reactive dog who has real trust issues. I'm trying to get my dog acclimated to having a dog sitter come look after her when I'm away, and Jennifer is the perfect person for the task. She's coming once a week to feed my dog to build trust, and it's working. Two visits and already Tallulah isn't barking at her from under the bed and is able to be close and still enough for Jennifer to get a photo! I'm so pleased with our progress and with Jennifer's interest in helping my dog become less afraid. I wholeheartedly recommend her -- she's a great person and feel so lucky to have found her!”
“Brandi was so great with our senior dog Cookie! She kept us updated with pictures and notes of our pup on each check-in and made sure that she had what she needed before she left. She even helped us with a last minute additional check in when we were going to be late getting back home, which we greatly appreciated! We would absolutely book with her again!”
“Mary was absolutely amazing! She made sure to make our dog feel so comfortable and loved. She always made sure to do everything we requested so that nothing in our dog’s routine would be different. Will be rebooking in the future!”
“Madeline was amazing! I've had a lot of Rover experiences and Madeline was by far the best! Right away, the dogs loved her and she has been so nice and communicative. She will definitely be our go to for our dog care.”
“My Layla girl had a very stressful day; I was out of town and unable to get to her to cuddle her to bed and Nicole was great with her!! Took her on a walk, tucked her in, and spent the full 30 min taking care of my girl. Also very friendly and communicative!”
“Chelsey was punctual, communicated, and was absolutely wonderful with my puppy. I can’t wait to continue to work with her and would recommend her to anyone in need of someone to watch their pet.”
“Courtney was fantastic! She put so much extra effort into taking care of our pets, even for a few days. Our animals can experience some anxiety, and Courtney did an amazing job providing them fun activities that she brought from home and understanding their behaviors as part of their care. We will absolutely be booking her again! ☺️”

“Brianna looked after my two cats for a week while I was out of state and did a phenomenal job. She provided me with daily pictures/updates, cleaned minor messes, and was extremely accommodating with scheduling. Highly recommend to anyone!! Thank you Brianna!!”
About: I've taken care of neighbors cats and dogs since I was 10 or 11, along with watering plants and making sure they get packages inside. I have experience with watching as many as four dogs and two cats at a time, but I can do less... or more :) I've been relied on to feed, walk, bathe, and play with pets and I love every minute of it! My husband is in the Navy and we moved here a few months ago, so I’m still new to the Augusta area. I work part-time as a preschool teacher Monday-Friday, but besides that, I have ample time to devote to the care of your pets! While you take some time away from home to work, vacation, and everything in between, you can always reach out to me to know your pets will be in loving hands! I’m a preschool teacher, so I work 8-2 Monday through Friday! I can offer care before or after those times and on weekends as well. I have a car and a flexible schedule! Starting in mid-May, I will be on summer break until early August. This means I will have even more time to spend with your pets while you travel or work! My husband and I have a super friendly cat at home, so we would be open to boarding cats only. However if you have dogs, or dogs and cats, I will gladly drop in or stay at your home. Whenever I’m not working, I want to be with your pets; giving ample amounts of love and play time! I'm comfortable with crating animals if necessary, but I also adore pets who love cuddles and sharing a bed. I also have experience keeping pets safe in a fenced in yard.
“Absolutely wonderful!!! My kitties were comfortable with her right away which allowed me to leave knowing they were in good hands!!! Everything was clean and kitties were well fed and well loved! Thanks Katie!!!'”
Montclair pet parents share their Rover experiences
Dorothy is an incredible cat sitter. I was nervous to leave my cat Elsa after she has been requiring daily medications but after meeting with Dorothy my mind was put at ease. She's a great communicator and truly cares so much for all the pets in her care. So glad to have found her!
Jasmin agreed to watch our cats for two weeks while we went on vacation. I was quite nervous as it was our first time using rover and we have some finicky cats. I was very worried initially as i have a senior cat with some health issues and my other is very shy and quick to refuse food when stressed. She was very confident when we met her and when we introduced her to the cats both of them immediately took to her. This was a first for us as again my one cat has never been so friendly upon meeting someone for the first time but I genuinely believe it was because she has a fantastic personality and animal handling skills. For two weeks she was prompt and clear with her communication and took great photos that made me feel comfortable about my cats' condition. Of course, there were also funny moments she was able to capture which really put me at ease. She was able to identify their patterns of behavior and made notes on it. I appreciate her thoughtfulness on refilling their litter and water fountain. The most memorable thing she did for us was when we were delayed an extra day coming back for our vacation she was completely understanding and agreed to watch the cats on such extremely short notice. If I ever have to get a pet sitter again I know that she will be my first choice going forward. Thank you Jasmin!!
Courtney was fantastic! She put so much extra effort into taking care of our pets, even for a few days. Our animals can experience some anxiety, and Courtney did an amazing job providing them fun activities that she brought from home and understanding their behaviors as part of their care. We will absolutely be booking her again! ☺️
Brandt took wonderful care of our two cats! We had issues with our water while we were away, and Brandt was kind to offer to water over for them. We appreciated the updates throughout the weekend and his extra attention to our playful kitten! Brandt is very attentive, kind, and his love for his work and animals is very clear -- we would recommend him as a pet sitter to anyone!
