“Ms. Alexis was absolutely amazing watching Biscuit! She was so accommodating and helpful as we had a sudden funeral to attend. Biscuit was extremely well taken care of and if you need someone who will truly love and take care of your pet, I 100% recommend using Ms. Alexis”
“Nicole was very patient with this nervous dog momma! She made sure Diesel was comfortable while introducing him to other dogs! Thanks to her, he made new friends! I'll definitely use her again for boarding or even walks! Diesel loved her, too!”
“Jennica did an amazing job of keeping my dog Herman. He was happy and calm when I picked him up. She sent me pictures and videos of him every day and evening. I will use her again. She treated Herman like he is a part of her family. I am very happy with the care she provided.”
“Great experience with Sarah and Hagan! We left our 11 week old puppy and they took great care of him (and his 4yo brother). She sent pictures and updates daily. Will board again. Thanks guys!”
“Rachel and her husband were perfect with my pup! They had a great house & yard for her to play in. Waylyn did not want to leave her two new friends, Cooper and Bentley. Rachel kept me updated multiple times a day including pictures! We will definitely be using Rachel and her family again in the future and highly recommend!!”
“I felt so comfortable the entire time. Jessica and her mom were great and I could tell they loved on my dogs like I would. Jessica ensured our dogs’ medication schedules were correct and confirmed with us multiple times. She sent lots of pictures and truly spoiled them. Would book with her again without hesitation!”
“Charles did an amazing job taking care of Kenji. From daily updates and photos to ensuring Kenji had walks and playtime. Kenji got along well with Knox, who is a Dalmatian as well. Kenji was happy when I returned, and it was a huge relief to know he was in such good hands. Highly recommend Charles for anyone needing a dependable and caring dog sitter!”
“Samantha was a pleasure to deal with. She accommodated our dog Milo last minute over a holiday weekend. She scheduled a meet and greet to make sure Milo got along great with her and her dog. She was up front about her work schedule and her mom watching Milo while she was at work. She sent plenty of pictures every day and was even nice enough to accommodate us picking him up early the night before we were scheduled to pick him up. Would recommend to anyone looking for a dog sitter in the North Augusta area.”
“Whittney was incredible. I was so nervous to leave my Ghost because he has a lot of anxiety and she kept me reassured and up to date with pictures and updates the whole time. She was responsive and so incredibly kind. Ghost had the biggest smile in all of the pictures and videos she sent so I know he had the best time!”
“Valerie was wonderful! She took excellent care of my Goldendoodle and took her on regular walks and to the park. She sent pictures and updates every day. I will definitely have Valerie watch my dog again.”
“I went into this not knowing what to expect but my first experience with Rover has been great. Lulu was boarded by Cassie for a few days and the entire process and visit was nothing short of amazing! Cassie taught Lulu some commands and took very good care of her. She sent me lots of photos and videos and communicated very well. Lulu was so happy to meet a new sweet furry friend (Korra) as well! 🥰 I will definitely be seeking out Cassie again the next time we are in need. Thank you Cassie! 💜”
“Courtney was fantastic with our pups. We appreciated the chance to meet her prior to our booking date. She was great at communication, took our pups on waljs, and we loved the photos she sent. Highly recommend her services.”
“I needed a sitter last minute and my regular sitter was out of town. Janai was very accommodating at sitting up a meet and greet and took the time to introduce Mickey to all of her dogs one by one. Mickey is VERY skittish and scared of new people but meeting her dogs helped him relax some. I was nervous leaving him with a new sitter but Janai was very good at communicating and sending me pictures. She also added on bathing and nail trim to his services with my permission, so he was fresh and clean when I picked him up. Will definitely bring him back in the future!”
“It was my first time using Rover and I loved it! She is attentive and understanding. You can tell she loves the animals that she takes care of. With it being my first time away from my dog, especially with Maxi being under the care of a stranger, I was worried and have been missing her even more. Genesis gave me updates and sent me pictures of Maxi, which calmed my nerves. 10/10 would definitely book again!”
“We had an amazing experience boarding our pup, Appa, with Tessa & Travis! They took fantastic care of him, and their dogs loved playing with him. Highly recommend their services for any pet parent!”
“Mrs. Tamara and her family are absolutely phenomenal!!! They took the best care of our baby Jaeger and even gave us some tips and tricks that we didn’t even know about. They treated him just like their own and made sure he was happy and comfortable, and got all the play time and cuddles. She sent me daily updates and answered any questions I had. There is no one else we would trust our Jaeger boy with. Just amazing!! ?”
About: Hi! I’m a psychology major at Augusta University and currently work as an RBT supporting autistic children, which has made me patient, attentive, and very comfortable building trust through positive reinforcement. I’ve loved dogs my entire life, especially after owning and training my German Shepherd for 8 years, and I now have a puppy of my own who keeps me enjoying daily walks, park time, and training every day. (For boarding, she would stay with my family so your pet would have my full attention and a calm space.) I especially like working on basic positive reinforcement with treats or a clicker when wanted. I love petting and getting to know every dog I see, so any chance to spend time with dogs is something I genuinely enjoy. I have open availability! Sometimes I may have an appointment or time commitment, but generally I am free throughout the week. I don’t have any scheduling or preference issues with overnight, extended, or evening hours either. I live in a townhome with a fenced patio. The patio has dirt/grass for going potty, a concrete center, and a backdoor that opens to a walking path. I have two floors with the bottom floor being hardwood (accident friendly!). For crate-preferred pets I have a 48in kennel (deep cleaned before and after use), or if crate-averse there is a guest bedroom that would be situated. I bring my own doggy bags and leash, but can use whatever is preferred. If desired I also have Buddy Trainers mini training treats that can be used for positively reinforcing your pet. My default approach is to focus primarily on your pet’s comfort rather than training, with the option of passive training being added into that approach. If boarding, I could take your pet on walks around the very dog-pro community where there are consistently opportunities to socialize, explore, and play in the paths available. Also with boarding my puppy would not share the space and would be at my family’s throughout your pet’s stay. Regardless of whether your pet is boarding at my home or if sitting at your’s, I have no problem deep (and properly) cleaning any accidents that come up. My approach with all pets, especially dogs, is positive reinforcement through doing things they enjoy. I try to set your pet up for success by matching their energy and minimizing any reason to feel anxious, sized up, or uncomfortable in general.

About: I grew up with cats and was always around cats at my friend’s homes. Even though they may not be as energetic as dogs, they deserve just as much love and attention. I understand that some cats may not like as much attention or cuddling. I am able to read their body language and understand their personalities to know what level of affection they like. I have taken care of older cats and kittens, and will cater to what needs they may have.

“My dog loves this woman. She did a few drop-in visits for us prior to in-home daycare. We pulled up to her home and, when she saw Chelsey, my timid pup went trotting into Chelsey’s house like she forgot I existed (she was excited to see me at pickup, so no hard feelings lol). Have already booked her again!”
“Charles was awesome and took very good care of Tucker. We were in town for a tournament and he was very understanding when our last game ran into double overtime causing us to be 1/2hr late for pick up. It seemed that our pup didn’t travel too well and had a sensitive stomach during his stay, Charles took very good care of Tucker despite his stomach upset. Very grateful he was in good hands!”
“Cassie is absolutely wonderful. She has a calm spirit and was great with my puppy. She's excited to see Cassie everytime we visit. I got pictures, video and even a little training for my puppy. If you're looking for someone professional and who will take great care of you dog, Cassie should be your first choice.”
“Terry is very kind and knowledgeable about dogs. She sent pictures that reassured me Obi was getting along with the other dogs in Doggy Day Care. It was nice to see he was with friendly dogs and was getting along as “one of the pack.” She is also very communicative. Will use again if needed for sure !”

“Amazing Dog Sitter! She's so flexible and helpful, she is a fantastic communicator and I feel comfortable leaving my baby with her any time. Sunny was always excited to go see Brittany and Rocko! It was like having a friend love my dog for me when I couldn't. Definitely recommend!”
“Natalie was great! I brought my dog for daycare multiple days per week for 4 weeks and she was well cared for. Natalie was responsive and very kind. I will book her again if I need doggie daycare again.”

About: I have had pets since I was a child and now I live with the long-term passion to do what I love most which is helping animals and hopefully soon I could become a Veterinarian. I’m currently working a part time job giving me lots of time to take care of your furry babies, I am available all weekends after. And usually most of the week days I have two friendly dogs to keep your fur babies happy and a nice comfortable house for them to fill cozy, warm, and protected at all times.
“Sachiho has been so wonderful! Our sweet babies sure love her. I am currently not in state ( my husband and I just moved to GA and I won’t be able to join until July) so I haven’t seen them in a few weeks and her pictures have left my mind so at ease. I love seeing all the updates and how happy they are to see her and be spoiled!”
“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!!”

She is incredibly kind, dependable, and communicative. She goes above and beyond! My pup loves his toys so she always plays with him in addition to taking him on a long walk and giving him his medicine on time every day! I never worry about my baby when she is with him because I know she will love him like her own!”
“Monica took great care of our dogs while we were out of town. She was very punctual and the dogs loved her. We have some webcams to keep an eye on the doggies when we are out and they were always excited when Monica arrived.”
About: I grew up with pitbulls, blue heelers, and cats. I currently have two fur babies named Theodore and Jax (who are living a 5 star luxury life 🐾). My friends reach out to me if they need help with caring for their doggies. I’m trustworthy and will respect your instructions! I will not do anything or give anything to your pup unless it’s specifically stated beforehand or I ask you first. I do not have children so it’s easy for me to be flexible in caring for your baby! I will provide loving care, and most of all, keep you updated and send plenty of photos to give you the reassurance that your pup is safe and cared for. I LOVE plants, so if there’s any plants you need watered while you’re away, I’d happily do so! I currently do not work. I mostly tend to my fur babies or my garden most days. I am doing college online but it is very flexible. My schedule is pretty flexible! Unfortunately, I cannot take care of animals in my home. We are renting and our lease states we have to have prior approval and charge a fee if another animal will be residing with us. My corgi (Theodore) is a bit of an introvert as well and does not enjoy other animals (other than Jax) in his space. I am able to drive and take care of your pet in your home! I don’t mind taking multiple trips if that will put you at ease about your pet!
About: I have 5 dogs at home ranging from a small Yorkie mix to a large lab-pit mix! I am used to taking care of dogs of all sizes and breeds and look forward to meeting your dog! I am a full time student with plenty of free time in the afternoon! I would love to fill my free time with dog walks! I live with roommates with dogs and have 5 dogs at home, so I believe in treating every dog like they are my own! Your dog will be in good hands and will get all the love and attention they deserve!
About: I took care of my cat for 10 years but he lives at home now with my parents! I have years of experience dog sitting my sisters Huskey/German Shepard mix! She’s a big girl and we love to go running and on walks. My friends always rely on me to walk and feed their animals when they need an extra care. I am available mostly in evenings and weekends, but have some mid day availability depending on the week. Less likely able to do consistent days due to my schedule I will take your animals for walks, feed them, take them outside to the bathroom every couple of hours. I do have stairs in my home so for elderly animals it may be difficult to host in my home
About: I grew up with dogs and had a special bond with my family’s dog in college. She loved when I would take her on an “interval run.” I recently successfully fed my friend’s five dogs. Please, I would love to meet your dog(s) with you there to get to know them first. I am officially insured and bonded through Pet Sitters Associates in case of an inopportune incident taking place while my clients’ pets and homes are in my care. Insurance certificate available upon request if we move forward with a meet-and-greet. I work full-time 8 to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. I don’t mind getting up early to check on your fur baby. I work in the 30904 zip code, so I could potentially check on them during my hourlong lunch break if you live close enough. I work to ensure that a pet who is not allowed outside a certain door stays inside. When I fed my friend’s five dogs a couple of months ago, I was told one was an escape artist, but I successfully left out of the front door without her getting out. Please let me know what command words your pet is familiar with.
About: Hello! I have been taking care of personal and family pets since around the age of 7. I love taking fur babies on walks and trips to the beach :) I am currently working part time, and from home so it makes taking care of your four legged children even easier! My schedule is super flexible. Unfortunately my yard is not fenced however, the yard is only used for potty breaks. When some exercise is wanted, a walk or a trip to the park usually is best :) I also have tons of toys and cat nip, along with one dog crate and one cat crate if needed.
About: I have taken care of various dog breeds of all ages since I was 11 years old. I also plenty of experience with cats, I currently have a cat and small dog of my own so I know what it takes to care for pets and will treat your pets as my own and give them the love care and attention you would. I currently do not work so I have a very flexible schedule, I do have a grade school child but am completely free weekdays from 9am-2pm. Weekends my schedule is also very flexible but will have a little less time available due to dedicating time with my child. Overall I am very flexible and willing to work around both our schedules and needs. I am very trustworthy and will respect the privacy of your home and family while present. I will provide a safe environment and companionship, play time, or any care necessary for your pets.

“I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my dog, Parker! Payton took amazing care of him while I was away and kept me updated with pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. Parker was clearly happy and well-loved the entire time. She’s reliable, attentive, and truly cares for the pets she watches. Payton will definitely be my go-to from now on!”
“Excellent communication, made sure to let us know how our boy was doing and if something was wrong. She helped our boy when he had loose bowels and got him feeling better ! She loves our boy and I’m sure he loves her !”
“I couldn’t be more pleased with the care Steven provided for my pup, Abby! From the moment we met, it was clear he had a natural connection with dogs and a genuine love for animals. Abby was happy, well-exercised, and clearly well-loved while I was away. Steven kept me updated with messages, which gave me great peace of mind. It’s always a little nerve-wracking to leave your pet with someone new, but Steven exceeded all expectations. I returned to a happy, healthy pup. Highly recommend Steven to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. I’ll definitely be reaching out to him again in the future!”
