“Terry was so great throughout my puppy’s visit! Great communication and care. Loved how much play was involved throughout the visit. My puppy came by very happy and tired. I will be using Terry for any future boardings!”
“Nicole and her husband were both extremely nice, considerate, and accommodating! My dog has mobility problems, and they went out of their way to get floor mats to help my dog and future dogs move around their house.”
“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”
“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!”
“After our initial Meet & Greet we were super impressed with Poria! We have already had a second extended stay for our Fur Baby and it turned out awesome! Poria sent lots of pictures and updates and was so understanding about Gunny's needs. She came home a very happy puppy! I would highly recommend Poria. She's the best.”
“Strongly recommend! Very easy and great to work with, I received daily updates and felt very comfortable leaving my dog. Will use again, and highly recommend.”
“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!”
“Jenn was beyond amazing! She cared for our boy Loki as her own and made sure to keep him fulfilled and entertained throughout his stay. Went above and beyond to help him feel welcome, happy, and loved 😊 The backyard was an advantage as well and a very safe space! Very grateful for all the pictures and updates she would send even if it was just something simple, made us feel connected with Loki while away ❤️ He had an amazing time with Jenn and Millie! Loki definitely loved his stay and we will for sure be messaging for future stays!”
“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! 💜”
“Valerie was absolutely amazingggg with our pupson, Bean! Even though we had a busy weekend, Valerie kept us updated on Bean! 100000% booking with her again!”

“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!”
“Donna did such a great job taking care of my little kitty boy Sebastian while we had flooring done in our home. Thank you so much Donna for your kindness and I will definitely be in contact in the future when I need a trusted person to care for my pet.”
“Rachel and Logan took good care of our little girl, as if she were their pet, they earned her affection and she was very happy during the days she was at their house. They are reliable and responsible. They kept us informed about Bimba all the time, they sent us photos and videos, and above all a lot of fun with their dogs Bently and Coper. We will leave Bimba again with them when we need it, with our eyes closed.”
“I would leave Chloe with Kimberly again! I could tell that Kimberly pampered Chloe. She asked lots of questions up front to be sure that Chloe received great care. She provided excellent communication before and during the stay, and lots of pictures! I was very happy with everything!”

We really appreciated the daily updates and pictures! I would recommend Sally to anyone who needs their fur baby taken care of!”

About: My goal is to make sure your furry friend feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I understand that every animal deserves patience, love, or just some comforting company. I am more than happy to take care of your furry friend(s) all day on weekends or walk them M-F after 5pm. Please message me for more detailed availability if needed. I have been trained with the SPCA in California to handle large and small dogs. Caring for pets brings me joy, and I treat each one as if they were my own—because they deserve nothing less.
“Amanda is our go to Rover in Augusta. She is so easy to work with and has taken great great care of our cat! She is extremely reliable and I would recommend her to anyone who needs pet sitting in the Augusta area!”
“Strongly recommend Stewart. He was attentive to the needs of my two cats and effectively communicated any questions he had about providing care. I plan on asking for his help in the future. I would HIGHLY encourage you to hire him.”
“My Iverson is an handful to say the least but Jessica is well equipped to handle him. Iverson jumps, nips and tugs on the leash like hr is playing tug of war. She displays extreme patience and goes above and beyond to ensure Iverson is safe. Also she stays the whole 30 minutes, I really like that!!!”
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.
“Monica was such a blessing to me to take care of my Maddi during my long work hours. She provided lots of pictures and videos during her visits and always communicated clearly to me. Monica took good care of Maddi and gave her lots of love!🩷”
“Samantha took exceptional care of our kitties while we were away for a lengthy time. We felt very comfortable leaving them knowing they were in good hands. We definitely recommend her!”
“Karly did a fabulous job taking care of Papaya, she was super accommodating taking on our last minute catsitting request. Highly recommend and will continue to work with her!”
About: I’m gonna be honest, I wasn’t a big cat person until more recently. Even though I love all animals, cats always seemed unpredictable to me and that made me a little scared of them. Since then I’ve learned a few things about them and met more cats that have gained my trust and vice versa, and now to put it simply… I almost adopted one the other day 😅
“Sachi took care of my three cats, and she gave me peace of mind while I was away. She sent me detailed reports and updates, and pictures of my critters (which was nice because I missed them a lot)! I definitely recommend Sachi!! Thanks again! 🤠”

“Terry is so great with our dog, Tombo! She’s so caring and really attentive. You won’t be disappointed if you’re looking for your pet daycare or boarding!”
“Jessica is great! My dog loves going to play the other dogs while I work l, went to schoool at night or boarding while on vacation leaving the island. My dog is a repeat client and has been since day 1 dog sitting.”
“Very warm, friendly and caring sitters. My first time using a sitter and were not sure if Bella would adjust. I must say before leaving her in the care of Kimberly I could feel and see the love and kindness coming from her. Bella seems so at home on the pictures that were text to me during her stay there. I will definitely book with her the next time I need a sitter and if Bella need to be board.”
“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.”
“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!”
About: I have had pets since I can remember. I enjoy seeing animals happy and seeing them be pure. Ive had a Pug and have two Bloodhounds now as an adult. I am a Real Estate Agent so during the day I am primarily free and can check on your pets, or even walk them if I need to! I am an early bird and try to be up at 6 and don't usually go to bed until about 10. I live in a townhome with a fenced back yard. My big puppies are primarily inside dogs but we leave the door open for them so they can get their zoomies in comfortably!
“Brandy was a huge blessing to us and we're so grateful she was available. She took great care of Boots and I would definitely book with her again! I definitely recommend her!”
“Michelle was soooo wonderful with my big baby Piper! She took her and treated her as her own. She is professional, courteous, and sends picture updates. Also, her dogs are friendly and were great playmates with my dog for the day! 10/10 highly recommend for anyone needing someone to watch their fur babies!”
“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!”
About: As a dedicated pet owner and experienced caregiver, I understand that pets are family. Choosing someone to care for them requires trust, and I strive to provide every pet and owner with reliability, professionalism, and peace of mind. I have experience caring for animals through both personal and family settings, including feeding, walking, bathing, grooming, playtime, and attending to their daily needs. I focus on creating a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where pets can feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for while you’re away. I have completed training and certifications in several areas of pet care, including: • Dog Psychology • Dog Training Basics • Dog and Cat First Aid Care and Maintenance • Preventing Pet Poisoning from Household Products • Recognizing Early Signs of Cancer in Pets • Understanding Heartworms and Chagas Disease • Understanding Why Cats Stop Using the Litter Box As a pet owner myself, I care for my dog, Titan, and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and individualized attention. Every pet has their own personality, routines, and comfort levels, and I tailor my care to meet their unique needs. Your pet’s safety is always a top priority. I maintain a pet-friendly environment by keeping spaces clean and free of hazards, securing off-limit areas, and ensuring potentially harmful items remain out of reach. Please let me know about any special instructions, medical needs, routines, fears, or favorite activities your pet may have. The more I know, the better I can provide the personalized care they deserve. I look forward to caring for your furry family members and giving you confidence that they’re in trustworthy, capable, and compassionate hands. Reliable. Certified. Experienced. Caring for your pets like they’re my own. I care for my Titan. We play and I walk him everyday. I am very caring, loving, and gentle with him. I also groom him. He is a also a certified ESA. We work diligently everyday to refine his behavior and I am very patient with the process. I close the doors to rooms they shouldn’t go in. I don’t leave cords lying around or other potentially harmful things to pets. I keep the floors clear of items and clean.
“Janea was amazing! We had to book last minute while visiting Augusta and she took us no problem. We got pictures and an update on our peanut while we were gone. So glad I found Janea!”
“Karen is amazing with my dog when he stays with her for daycare. She is very patient and is always able to make sure he is comfortable and happy. She also takes the time to play with him and make sure he is having fun. I always feel confident leaving my dog with her knowing he is in good hands.”
“Michelle was a joy to work with , she kept me updated on my pup with pictures and videos his entire stay and her dog Max is a gentle giant he made Dash feel welcomed”
“Aliyah was very kind, accommodating I book last minute and she still told my babies, they had a great time came home and went to straight to sleep. I would recommend and definitely will be booking again.”

“Amazing, amazing. Brandi sends photos and videos throughout the day. Hershey is always enjoying his time playing with toys, playing outside with his new furry friends, and enjoying sweet naptimes after he’s all tuckered out. Will continue to use Brandi for future pup day care.”

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.

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.
“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!!”
“Ana is an absolute blessing! She has been walking my dog every week day afternoon for several months now and she has been the best walker he has ever had! 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!”

About: I’ve been around dogs since I was 3. I have also taken care of several different breeds with different behaviors. I can potty and crate train. I’ve had dogs from puppies to seniors that need special attention. I am a stay at home mom. I’m free everyday of the week. I have an open front yard and a fenced backyard with plenty of space run around on. I also have 6 dogs, four are small dogs and two large mix breeds, so your fur baby’s will have company. If your fur baby has special needs that need to be met just let me know and I would be happy to accommodate them. I am a stay at home mom allowing me to provided the best hands on care for your fur baby in whatever way they need. For boarding and day care services I have a fenced in backyard that the pets will have access to. They will also have their own closed off area if they need space from the other dogs for whatever reason.
About: I have had dogs since 2013. I had three, I currently have two. One of them had epilepsy, this gave me experience with seizures and administering medicine. I also worked at a doggy day care for 1 year, there I cared for large groups of dogs. We fed them, changed out water 4-5 times a day, picked up after them and played with them. I'm knowledgeable about dog behavior and how to avoid situations that would be harmful. I know to test the pavement heat before a walk on hot days. I'm currently seeking steady employment but am wanting to make this my steady job. I'm available during the week from six am to 5 pm I'm currently unable to pet sit in my home. I'm more than happy to pet sit in the dogs/cats home that makes the pets more comfortable as well since it's not a strange house with strange smells. I'm more than happy to drop in or stay for awhile. I enjoy taking walks and it's always good to have a friend (your pet) with me.
“Sachiho is absolutely wonderful. She is very punctual and provides lots of pictures and updates from the walk and goes above and beyond for my dog. I truly feel I leave my dog in good hands with Sachiho. Highly recommend!!”
About: I have a genuine love for animals and experience caring for both dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, administering basic care, and creating a calm, safe environment. I pride myself on being dependable, communicative, and attentive to detail so your pets feel secure and you feel confident while you’re away. Caring for pets is something I truly enjoy, so I naturally build it into my everyday routine.

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. I rescued my dog about five years ago! I always try to help strays whenever I can. I have three dogs living with me and my family currently. I bathe and walk them and take them on drives occasionally to get a puppuccino from Starbucks! :) I believe dogs are a part of the family, which is why my dogs are just as comfortable on their dog beds, as they are on our couches and beds. I love all animals, but have a special place in my heart for dogs. I’m currently working part time, so I have plenty of availability open for your pets! I love all animals and want a future career aimed towards that specialty! Depending on the pet and its personality, I am open for cuddles and being lazy together, or for walks and getting out some energy by throwing the ball in the backyard!
About: Between the ages of 12 and 16. I had the privilege of nurturing a Yorkie. I also had the honor of looking after a German Shepherd for a year, fostering a deep and loving bond with each of these loyal companions. My commitment to animal care extended into my first job, where I diligently walked my neighbor's five dogs every day and provided attentive care to her cats and, on occasion, her snakes. These experiences have cultivated in me a profound sense of responsibility and compassion for all creatures, great and small. 🐶🐱 I have tailored my availability to ensure I provide exceptional care to pets while managing my active duty commitments. I am available for pet care anytime outside of my active duty hours, which are from 7 am to 4 pm on weekdays. This means I can provide attentive care during the early mornings, late afternoons, and evenings throughout the weekdays. Additionally, I am fully available all day on weekends, allowing me to offer consistent and comprehensive care to pets during these times. I take great care to ensure that each pet is kept in a secure and comfortable setting, free from potential hazards. I will keep their same routine and monitoring their well being closely, I do my best to provide peace of mind for both pets and their owners. Building trust is key; I strive to create a bond with each pet through gentle interactions, attentive care, and positive reinforcement.
“Hannah was amazing with Coco! She was on time and everything was left in place! Coco loved her as well and she sent plenty of pics and followed all instructions and kept me informed the entire time. I can’t wait to use her again!”

About: I’ve always loved pets and growing up my parents never allowed me to get any so when I was able to move out i immediately went and got me a little puppy (lab) from a shelter that I’ve been volunteering at and every since then Mia have been the light of my life!. My friends always rely on me to dog sit for them or just to come over and let them out for a potty break. I’m currently work full time at Allstate M-F and I recently graduated from university of South Carolina Aiken. Because I’m full time throughout the week and off every weekend, I wanted to make money doing something I love and that’s when I came across rover.

She’s the sweetest/ friendliest puppy ever! She will make your fur baby feel right at home with her smile and energy.

I have a fenced backyard with cameras that alert with motion. Dogs go outside frequently and will never not have a toy available for all.

“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.

Genesis gave me updates and sent me pictures of Maxi, which calmed my nerves. 10/10 would definitely book again!”

“We had to be away for 7 hours and we needed someone to watch our lab pup. I was worried at first, but after meeting Samantha, we were relieved how amazing she was with our pup. Our pup is a little shy meeting new dogs and needs more socialization. Samantha picked up our pup and her experience allowed her to introduced them slowly and correctly. We could tell by the pics we received, that after a couple of hours, my pup and her dog (lady) were playing and sleeping together so well. Both Samantha and her dog were sweet and playful with my pup. Buy the time I got back and she dropped my pup off, she passed out with all the energy she burned to day. But I can tell my pup had an amazing day. I will use Samantha again and would highly recommend her to others. Thanks Samantha and Lady!”
“Jessica was amazing! We were constantly updated throughout the stay and felt at ease while we are away. Highly recommend Jessica for anyone needing pet boarding. ☺️”

“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!”
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.
“Emily was absolutely amazing as a pet sitter for my dog, Parker! She was kind, dependable, and treated him with so much care and attention. What really stood out was how understanding she was when I needed to extend the booking due to a family situation—she was flexible and accommodating without hesitation. I truly felt at ease knowing Parker was in such great hands. I’ll definitely be using her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”
