Personalized care for your dog or cat - Ardick
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Ardick
“This was my puppy’s first time away from me and she was very shy and probably nervous. Judith was so sweet and understanding with her. She was constantly communicating with me and sending pictures and videos. This was also my first experience with Rover and it was a great one.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Jelisa! She was incredibly flexible with both drop-off and pick-up times, which made our schedule so much easier to manage. Throughout the stay, she kept us updated with daily messages and sent plenty of pictures, which really gave us peace of mind while we were away. Most importantly, it was clear that she was very loving and attentive with our dog. You could tell our baby was happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. We truly appreciated the communication and kindness shown, and we would absolutely trust her to watch our dog again. Highly recommend!”
About: Happy trails and happy tails! We adore animals and truly enjoy caring for them. It’s something that already fits naturally into our daily life. Living in a quieter, more spacious setting, we wanted to create a safe, calm place where pets can feel comfortable while their owners are away. We understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so we focus on giving them attention, consistency, and a low stress environment. For us, we know how it feels to consider our pets as family members and it’s something we take seriously and genuinely brings us joy! We have had the privilege of loving several fur babies over the years and know what it means to have trusted partners and friends that can help out when the need arises. Our sweet companions should have a comfortable and safe space to relax when families have to be away. In recent years we’ve struggled to find that for our own pets so we’ve decided to open our home and land in order to help those looking for a reliable option for care. Sharing our hobby farm would be an honor for those who feel it would be a good fit for their families! We look forward to growing trusted partnerships in our community. We are homeschooling family of 3 that spends the majority of our days working and learning here on our mini hobby farm. My husband remote works and one of us can be found here most days of the week. We have 2 male yellow labs that hold down the outside spaces and female golden doodle that keeps things fun inside. They are very social and friendly with other animals. We also have 3 outdoor cats, a bunny in a hutch, and a large coop of chickens that free range in the afternoons. We do mealtimes 2x per day and have plenty of fresh clean water available at all times. Playtime and walks are every day around noon and again in the evenings. Potty breaks 3-4 times per day or as needed. For the safety of our furry friends we do crate or provide a smaller space for resting and relaxing times. If your pet cannot be confined in smaller rooms or spaces throughout the day, let’s discuss how to best care for their needs prior to booking a stay.
“Gabrielle was great with my Shadow! Had an small incident happen but she was in control of it right away & she informed me with pics & everything. She is the best…Shadow came home all tired out from playing & slept so good that night. Thank u soo much again!”
“Excellent! First time boarding for our two Standard Poodles so this was our trial run everything went great. Brett and Sandra excellent boarders their accommodations were great we will rebook with them again in a few weeks!”
“Pamela did an amazing job caring for our fur baby. She kept us updated throughout the stay with photos and messages. Our puppy had a great time. Already re-booked for a second stay.”
“Heather and family were very accommodating. They worked with us on varying time frames, and Shadow seemed to settle in very well. He also enjoyed the company of another dog in the house. We will definitely use this family again if they are available.”
“Kristine watched our border collie during 4th of July. Our pup is scared of fireworks but Kristine put in extra care and work to make sure she was more than comfortable during that time. She took her to play at the beach, sent great pictures and was very communicative. It’s clear Kristine is extremely knowledgeable with all types of dogs. Definitely will be having Kristine watch our dog again, my husband and I both recommend you book with her!”
“Kristina was great with us and Silas. We were very nervous about boarding him as we hadn't been away from him since we got him. But, she understood that we needed multiple daily updates and she was great to provide pictures of him enjoying the stay. We would consider her again for future boarding and highly recommend her.”
“5 stars all the way! Benjamin took care of our senior dog on a recent trip to st simons. She is on tons of meds I clouding eye drops and required a lot of special attention. Benjamin was on top of it and never missed a pill or treatment. He took her on nice walks ans between him and his girlfriend gave her lots of loves and pets. His little dog Millie is super sweet ans friendly and just loved on my Rana too! Even though Rana is shy with other dogs they immediately hit it off and I think the visit was good for her! I will definitely book Benjamin again. Very friendly, professional and responsible!”
“Yvonne did an awesome job taking care of Max. She sent pictures everyday letting me know how he was doing. She provided everything he needed to be comfortable at her house and I would highly recommend her to anyone to watch your pets.”
“We are so happy we found Jennifer! The care she gave our dog, her warm inviting home for our dog to stay and her sweet family’s attention to our dog was just what we were looking for. We will defiantly be having our dog stay in Jennifer’s care on our next trip!”
“Ashley was wonderful! We were staying nearby at a hotel in Jekyll Island and her house was the perfect little quick detour. Our dog, Max, seemed to love his stay. She sent us many photos and even remembered to give Max his meds when I, at the last minute, decided to pick him up sooner than originally planned. If we’re ever in the area again, we will 100% book her again!”
“Melanie was super accommodating and helpful for our wedding day dog care! Worked out very well for her to pop over to our wedding venue for some brief dog pictures. Very quick to respond and reliable!”
“Excellent care of my 2 pups. When I brought their beds in from the car they sniffed the sitters house for a while. The sent photos are like Glamor Shots and sent multiple a day. They were definitely spoiled during their stay. They have a large Mastiff, but he's a sweetheart. Would definitely recommend.”
“Highly recommend!! Stacey gave exceptional care to my rescue dog (first time ever being boarded!) and my semi-feral cat at home. She’s patient, experienced, and so detail-oriented. I appreciated her communication so much. I’ll be using her again soon!”
“Giovanni did excellent with my reactive GSD. He was patient, understanding, and did excellent with her. She had so much fun, he sent plenty of pictures and updates, and she came back super tired! Definitely would recommend and trust him with your furry babies. We will be using him again!”

Cat caregivers near you - Ardick
About: Even though I love both, I am definitely a cat person. I’m comfortable with feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, playing, and giving cats plenty of attention and affection. I understand that every cat is different, so I’m happy to follow their usual routine and give them space when they need it
“Highly recommend! My cat was looked after so well and in every photo sent she looked so happy and taken care of when I had to be away for a few days. If you need someone who will look after your cat and provide them extra love I highly recommend these sitters!”
“I always book Josie for drop-in visits of my cats when I travel. She is really thorough and caring. She treats my cats as if they were her own pets, and also my house as if it was hers, too.”
About: I’ve grown up caring for animals my entire life, starting with helping my grandmothers care for their dogs and later taking an active role in caring for my own family dog. I eventually got my own cat, who I’ve independently cared for for several years. In addition to my personal experience, I’ve spent the past 4 months working as an overnight pet sitter, caring for pets of all ages and types and making sure they receive the attention, exercise, and care they need while their owners are away. I’ve also worked with children through babysitting and have experience staying calm, responsible, and attentive in situations that require patience and flexibility. My love for animals has even influenced my education. I’m currently a student-athlete at the College of Coastal Georgia majoring in Marine Biology. I’m passionate about animal care and treat every pet as an individual, taking the time to understand their routines, personalities, and specific needs. As a student-athlete, my weekday schedule can be fairly busy, especially before 3 p.m. However, I’m definitely open to working on weekdays as long as we can discuss the schedule ahead of time and make sure it works with my classes and practices. I have much more flexibility on weekends, with the exception of a few Saturday mornings when I have practice. I’ll always communicate my schedule and availability in advance so that pet care can be planned accordingly. I always make sure to follow the owner’s instructions and stick to their pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. Whatever your pet needs, I’m happy to accommodate! My goal is to make sure your furry friend feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated throughout the visit so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands.
“Katia was wonderful! She kept our kitty lots of company, took great care of her and made sure she was loved and played with. She was great at keeping me updated and I have complete peace of mind while we were gone :)”
“Shevy did a great job! She looked after my kitty while we were out of town for a week. She made sure to send pics and great updates. I definitely felt comfortable having her take care of my cat. I highly recommend!”
About: I’ve taken care of animals all of my life honestly. I was always told I had a “bee charm” because I’ve never had a bad experience with any animal, even ones others have labeled aggressive or unfriendly. I treat my animals like my babies. They’re people who just don’t speak English to me. I work in the restaurant industry so I don’t work long hours and I’m flexible. My sister is also a rover sister and she spends a lot of time at my house. I have a fenced yard in the back that my dog loves to sun bath in and do his business. I have a nice quiet neighborhood that we love to take walks around. My house is full of love. Me and my children love animals. Some would even say we baby them. My sweet boy sleeps at the end of my bed and when I leave I like to put on a movie or pandora so he doesn’t feel alone.
About: I've had over 20 years of pet care experience, ranging between several different dog breeds and sizes, cats, rodents, reptiles, and even some bird-sitting. I understand each pet is different in their own way, some needing certain medications or volumes of food and water, and other pets are easier to take care of, but their owners need someone last minute to help watch and take care of their beloved pets. I also know when it comes to more than one pet in the household, some pets can get rowdy with each other and may tend to hurt one other, so I'm used to cleaning up after and treating the occasional bites or scratches they inflict. Having to give medications, give special food, and even seeing blood or recent wounds on animals doesn't stop me from providing the care they need while their owners are away at work or vacation or whatever else life has thrown their way. I've been known to be a reliable petsitter by many friends and family members over the years, and I make sure to follow all needs and specifications for each pet, regardless of their age and their size. At the moment, I am available all day on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, and then on Mondays and Wednesdays I am attending a class from 9:30 AM to 12:30 AM, which anytime before or afterwards I can help walk or watch over pets. While I do not currently offer petsitting at my own home due to my roommates, I understand that every owner's household and every pet is different. I make sure that each of the doors and windows are closed and locked for the pet's safety, unless otherwise specified by the owners. If there are certain rooms or parts of the house off-limits to myself or the pets, I keep us away from those areas for the owner's privacy. And if the pets do tend to make a mess or I use any of the utilities of the home to help clean and take care of the pets, I make sure that everything is turned off and cleaned up afterwards so there are no messes for the owners when they return to their home and beloved pets.
About: First off I am more than just a dog sitter..I am an animal lover and I have a lot of compassion for all dogs and animals !

I will be available at least 3 times a day to walk, feed, groom, play, and whatever else it is you and your dog need !

Not to mention the one on one attention they receive and endless love and cuddles! I make homemade dog treats too. Sweet potato, blueberries, and all!
About: My family always joked I’d become a crazy cat lady. Joke’s on them! I love all animals, but to be fair, cats are my favorite. 🐱 I understand that every cat has their own personality, whether they’re a cuddle bug, playful menace, shy baby, or prefer to admire you from afar. I’m experienced with senior cats, specialty diets, and administering oral and topical medications. Most importantly, I’m happy to meet your cat where they are and give them the care, attention, and space they need to feel comfortable while you’re away.

I have a fenced yard and can Kennel the dog if needed but for the most part I prefer for them to get a feel of my home and my rules.
About: I have raised and cared for families, friends 🧡, and even coworkers' pets. Growing up, I always enjoyed watching veterinarians help our farm animals. My mother taught us about natural remedies we could find in nature to help cure or heal us over time. One memorable experience was when I saved a beloved cat from what we believed was antifreeze poisoning. Drawing on what I learned from my family and my work, I created activated charcoal using black coal from the fireplace. I mixed the powdered charcoal with warm milk and carefully forced it down my little cat's throat. Thankfully, I was able to save my cat, Taco 🌮 😺, who went on to live for many more happy years.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Ardick
“Baxter enjoyed his day with Yvonne. She is loving and kind, has lots of dog toys to entertain our Baxter. We could see how comfortable Baxter was with her when we picked him up. Loved the pictures she sent while we were away! Highly recommend Yvonne.”
“Jen and her family could not have been nicer, truly the best sitter we could have asked for! We felt totally comfortable leaving our pom with them during our weekend trip down to visit family—definitely recommend!!”
“Jessica took excellent care of our toy poodle Victor. Victor is normally shy and anxious when he’s away from home, but I could tell from the pictures that Jessica shared that he was having a great time and was being taken care of. We’ll definitely be using Jessica again!”
“Benjamin took great care of our 3-year-old high-energy lab. He’s a natural with dogs and we feel lucky to have found him. Our pup came home tired and happy after a day chasing balls in the dog park and playing with Benjamin’s dog. This was the second time Benjamin cared for our lab, and he enthusiastically jumped in his car when Benjamin picked him up. We highly recommend Benjamin for dog care services.”

“I would highly recommend Anna for anyone looking for daycare for their dog. She was very flexible working with our schedule as we were visiting St Simon Island. Communication was great and our lab Tilly was happy and well cared for.”
About: Hi! I understand how important your pet is to you. We have two yorkies, Tyson and Wyatt, that are our children! We provide a caring, safe and active home for pups. Because we have two small dogs, we do prefer to sit for small dogs, under 15 pounds, to ensure everyone is safe. Our yorkies have gotten along with all dogs that they have been around. They love to play but quickly learn their boundaries. They are spoiled rotten with attention and your dog will be too! I work from home full time so there is usually someone always here to let them outside several times a day. If we go out we do put our pups in a pen I do keep my pups in a pen while I work and when we leave the home to ensure they are safe... and don't have accidents in the home!

About: I grew up around pets like dogs, cats, fishes or even chickens. I’ve always responsible of feeding, bathing and walking them. I also pet sitting around my neighborhood when needed.

About: I have extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of different ages, personalities, and needs. I’m especially comfortable with shy, anxious, senior, and special-needs pets, and I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and respecting each pet’s individual boundaries. I also founded and manage an animal rescue organization in Brazil, where I have personally cared for more than 60 rescued cats. This experience has taught me how to handle animals who may be fearful, nervous, or unfamiliar with new environments, as well as pets who require extra attention, medication, or specialized care. As a pet mom to my dog Savannah and my cat Ellie, I understand that every pet is a member of the family. I provide attentive, loving care and take the time to make each pet feel safe, comfortable, and at home. As a military spouse, I also understand how important flexibility, reliability, and trust can be for military families and their pets. I work remotely from home, which allows me to provide plenty of attention and supervision throughout the day. My schedule gives me the flexibility to take regular breaks for walks, playtime, feeding, and potty breaks, while also making sure your pet receives plenty of companionship. Because I’m home most of the day, your pet will have someone around to keep them company and monitor their needs. I’m able to give each pet the individual attention, care, and affection they deserve while they are staying with me. I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where pets can feel at home. I follow each pet’s individual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, rest, and any special instructions from their owner. Since I work remotely from home, I’m able to provide frequent supervision and plenty of attention throughout the day. I also make sure pets have a calm and comfortable space to relax when they need some quiet time. I understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their personality, habits, likes, and boundaries. My goal is to make their stay as stress-free and enjoyable as possible while keeping them safe and well cared for.

About: Hi! I'm Haley, and I've been caring for animals for over 11 years. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly enjoy getting to know each pet's unique personality. I have experience caring for puppies, adult dogs, senior dogs, cats, rabbits, fish, amphibians, reptiles, and even exotic pets such as tarantulas and scorpions. I'm comfortable following detailed care instructions, administering routine care, maintaining feeding schedules, cleaning habitats, and making sure every pet feels safe and comfortable while you're away. Whether your pet is energetic and loves playtime or prefers quiet companionship and cuddles, I'm happy to meet them where they're most comfortable. I know every animal is different, and I take the time to earn their trust with patience and positive interactions. Friends and family often tell me their pets warm up to me quickly, and I've had dogs become attached to me after only a couple of visits. I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you can trust. I'll care for your pets as if they were my own, keeping you updated with photos, messages, and plenty of reassurance while you're away. I can't wait to meet you and your furry (or scaly!) family members! Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine, so fitting your pet into my schedule comes easily! I have open availability and can accommodate a variety of schedules, whether your pet needs early morning walks, midday check-ins, evening visits, or overnight care. I care for my own pet every day, including maintaining feeding schedules, cleaning habitats, and monitoring their health and behavior. For example, my pet scorpion is fed twice a week, and I mist his enclosure twice daily to maintain proper humidity. Caring for animals has become second nature to me, and I understand the importance of consistency and attention to detail. Whether your pet has a strict routine or just needs extra love and companionship while you're away, I'm committed to providing reliable, attentive care that keeps them happy, comfortable, and safe. I believe the best pet care starts with respecting each pet's individual routine. Every animal is different, so I make it a priority to follow your feeding schedule, exercise routine, medication instructions, and any house rules exactly as you've outlined. My goal is to keep your pet's day as familiar and stress-free as possible while you're away. When caring for pets in your home, I'll treat both your pet and your home with the same respect I would my own. I'll provide plenty of love, attention, playtime, walks, enrichment, and potty breaks while also keeping food and water fresh and cleaning up after your pet. I'll send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. If I'm caring for a pet in my own home (when applicable), I'll provide a safe, clean, and calm environment where they can feel comfortable. I'll continue to follow their normal routine and make sure they receive the same level of care, affection, and supervision they would receive at home. My priority is always making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away.
About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life, including my own dogs and cats. I’ve also pet-sat for friends several times, so I’m comfortable with different routines, temperaments, and needs. I’m available for drop-ins anytime throughout the entire week and have a very flexible schedule, so I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine and preferred visit times. I’m also very flexible with house sitting and can accommodate different schedules and care needs. During drop ins, I provide plenty of attention and companionship, fresh food and water, potty breaks, walks if requested, playtime, and lots of love and cuddles! I’m also happy to bring in packages/mail, water plants, or take care of other small tasks around the home while I’m there. My goal is to make sure your pets feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away In my home or yours, I focus on making pets feel comfortable and secure. I follow each pet’s usual routine as closely as possible feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you have. I give plenty of attention, keep things clean, and always make sure they feel safe and loved.
About: I've had over 20 years of pet care experience, ranging between several different dog breeds and sizes, cats, rodents, reptiles, and even some bird-sitting. I understand each pet is different in their own way, some needing certain medications or volumes of food and water, and other pets are easier to take care of, but their owners need someone last minute to help watch and take care of their beloved pets. I also know when it comes to more than one pet in the household, some pets can get rowdy with each other and may tend to hurt one other, so I'm used to cleaning up after and treating the occasional bites or scratches they inflict. Having to give medications, give special food, and even seeing blood or recent wounds on animals doesn't stop me from providing the care they need while their owners are away at work or vacation or whatever else life has thrown their way. I've been known to be a reliable petsitter by many friends and family members over the years, and I make sure to follow all needs and specifications for each pet, regardless of their age and their size. At the moment, I am available all day on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, and then on Mondays and Wednesdays I am attending a class from 9:30 AM to 12:30 AM, which anytime before or afterwards I can help walk or watch over pets. While I do not currently offer petsitting at my own home due to my roommates, I understand that every owner's household and every pet is different. I make sure that each of the doors and windows are closed and locked for the pet's safety, unless otherwise specified by the owners. If there are certain rooms or parts of the house off-limits to myself or the pets, I keep us away from those areas for the owner's privacy. And if the pets do tend to make a mess or I use any of the utilities of the home to help clean and take care of the pets, I make sure that everything is turned off and cleaned up afterwards so there are no messes for the owners when they return to their home and beloved pets.

“This was my puppy’s first time away from me and she was very shy and probably nervous. Judith was so sweet and understanding with her. She was constantly communicating with me and sending pictures and videos. This was also my first experience with Rover and it was a great one.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Jelisa! She was incredibly flexible with both drop-off and pick-up times, which made our schedule so much easier to manage. Throughout the stay, she kept us updated with daily messages and sent plenty of pictures, which really gave us peace of mind while we were away. Most importantly, it was clear that she was very loving and attentive with our dog. You could tell our baby was happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. We truly appreciated the communication and kindness shown, and we would absolutely trust her to watch our dog again. Highly recommend!”
“Gabrielle was great with my Shadow! Had an small incident happen but she was in control of it right away & she informed me with pics & everything. She is the best…Shadow came home all tired out from playing & slept so good that night. Thank u soo much again!”
“Excellent! First time boarding for our two Standard Poodles so this was our trial run everything went great. Brett and Sandra excellent boarders their accommodations were great we will rebook with them again in a few weeks!”
“Pamela did an amazing job caring for our fur baby. She kept us updated throughout the stay with photos and messages. Our puppy had a great time. Already re-booked for a second stay.”
“Heather and family were very accommodating. They worked with us on varying time frames, and Shadow seemed to settle in very well. He also enjoyed the company of another dog in the house. We will definitely use this family again if they are available.”
“Kristine watched our border collie during 4th of July. Our pup is scared of fireworks but Kristine put in extra care and work to make sure she was more than comfortable during that time. She took her to play at the beach, sent great pictures and was very communicative. It’s clear Kristine is extremely knowledgeable with all types of dogs. Definitely will be having Kristine watch our dog again, my husband and I both recommend you book with her!”
“Kristina was great with us and Silas. We were very nervous about boarding him as we hadn't been away from him since we got him. But, she understood that we needed multiple daily updates and she was great to provide pictures of him enjoying the stay. We would consider her again for future boarding and highly recommend her.”
“5 stars all the way! Benjamin took care of our senior dog on a recent trip to st simons. She is on tons of meds I clouding eye drops and required a lot of special attention. Benjamin was on top of it and never missed a pill or treatment. He took her on nice walks ans between him and his girlfriend gave her lots of loves and pets. His little dog Millie is super sweet ans friendly and just loved on my Rana too! Even though Rana is shy with other dogs they immediately hit it off and I think the visit was good for her! I will definitely book Benjamin again. Very friendly, professional and responsible!”
“Ashley was wonderful! We were staying nearby at a hotel in Jekyll Island and her house was the perfect little quick detour. Our dog, Max, seemed to love his stay. She sent us many photos and even remembered to give Max his meds when I, at the last minute, decided to pick him up sooner than originally planned. If we’re ever in the area again, we will 100% book her again!”
“Melanie was super accommodating and helpful for our wedding day dog care! Worked out very well for her to pop over to our wedding venue for some brief dog pictures. Very quick to respond and reliable!”
“Excellent care of my 2 pups. When I brought their beds in from the car they sniffed the sitters house for a while. The sent photos are like Glamor Shots and sent multiple a day. They were definitely spoiled during their stay. They have a large Mastiff, but he's a sweetheart. Would definitely recommend.”
“Highly recommend!! Stacey gave exceptional care to my rescue dog (first time ever being boarded!) and my semi-feral cat at home. She’s patient, experienced, and so detail-oriented. I appreciated her communication so much. I’ll be using her again soon!”
“Giovanni did excellent with my reactive GSD. He was patient, understanding, and did excellent with her. She had so much fun, he sent plenty of pictures and updates, and she came back super tired! Definitely would recommend and trust him with your furry babies. We will be using him again!”
About: I’ve raised two dogs as puppies and have extensive experience in training them. My current dog, Penny, is a rescue and loves to run around and play outside. I make sure to provide attentive supervision so the dogs feel comfortable and at ease. I work from home full-time so I have plenty of opportunities to let the dogs out throughout the day for potty breaks or play time. Weather permitting, we take long walks each morning after breakfast, and at night after dinner. I have a fenced in yard so my dog spends a lot of time outside running around or just hanging out. I also have a large screened in porch when she needs a break from the sun. Penny sleeps in my office (her room) next to the bedroom which is where other dogs would sleep as well. I don’t allow dogs on furniture or sleep in the bed.
“Jada was so kind and responsive. She truly loves dogs and it shined through during their entire stay. She was warm and loving when I dropped the dogs off, communicated and shared pictures, both my dogs seemed right at home and were well cared for. She will be by go to sitter from now on!”
