“This was the first time that I left our older cat, Doc, with Autumn and I will be calling on her in the future. I was very confident that Doc was being well cared for while we were away.

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. I make time each day for walks, playtime, and plenty of attention, and I’m available throughout the week and on weekends to keep pets happy, comfortable, and on their normal schedule. I treat every client’s home with the same respect and care as my own, creating a calm, secure environment for your pets. I follow all instructions closely—from feeding routines to home preferences—and make sure doors, gates, and safety measures are always properly secured. I’m attentive, dependable, and provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pets and home are in good hands.
About: I have experience caring for cats of different ages, personalities, and needs. I am patient, loving, and attentive, and I understand that every cat has its own unique personality and routine. I am comfortable caring for kittens, adult cats, and senior cats, providing them with love, playtime, feeding, fresh water, litter box care, and plenty of attention. I always take the time to make each cat feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. My goal is to give every cat the same care and affection I would give my own. I speak English and Spanish
About: I have over 5 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs. I’ve also always had dogs growing up. I’ve worked with dogs for years, where I gained experience caring for dogs with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ve also provided pet-sitting services in dogs’ own homes, giving them the comfort of staying in their familiar environment while their owners are away. In addition, I have extensive dog-walking experience and understand the importance of keeping every walk safe, enjoyable, and suited to each dog’s individual pace and personality. What sets me apart is my combination of professional daycare experience, in-home pet sitting, and dog walking. I’m dependable, attentive, and genuinely love getting to know each dog in my care. I treat every pup like my own and strive to give both pets and their owners peace of mind. 🐾❤️ Pet care is something I’m doing part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. My significant other travels for work, and I’m fortunate enough to be able to travel with him, so I’m able to adjust my availability depending on our travel schedule. I’m looking forward to using my flexible schedule to provide reliable, loving care for dogs and giving them the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. 🐾 I understand that staying in a familiar environment can help pets feel more relaxed, especially when their owners are away. I make sure doors, gates, and other areas are secure, follow their normal feeding, walking, and medication routines, and keep a close eye on their behavior and well-being. I also respect their home and leave everything clean and just as I found it.
“I can't say enough nice things about Hannah, she is absolutely amazing! She watched my two elderly cats for two weeks, and did a fantastic job. I absolutely hate leaving them and typically worry the whole time I'm away, but after the meet and greet I knew they would be well cared for and safe. They both liked her immediately which is extremely rare for one of them. That same cat doesn't do well with being left, she's always extremely clingy and lethargic when we return home. This was the very first time, (and she's 13 years old) she seemed happy and unconcerned by our absence! It really showed how comfortable and secure she felt. Hannah is kind, professional, and quick to respond. I'd hire her again in a second!”
About: I've had pets since I was little. We got our first dog when I was in about 4th grade. At the moment I have a Guinea pig. I've been to obedience school with my dog before so I think that might come in handy. Other than that. I just want to enjoy their company. And also keep an eye on your bundle of joy for you. I've had pitbulls, pinkingneses, and a beagle before but I mostly know about smaller dogs. I've read a plethora of dog books from my local library during my early teenage years to get a good understanding of most species. I also am constantly researching anything I need to, on more than just Google and wikipedia but multiple sources. I hope I can be of service to anyone who would have me. I work two part time jobs and am looking to fill my time with some fur babies. The time spend at both jobs is equal to less than 40 hours. I have a crate trained dog in my home and plenty of yard to run around. I live on a dirt road so it is not traveled often.
“Stephanie does a fantastic job! I wasn't worried at all. She took care of our 4 cats while we were away on our cruise. She takes pictures of your babies, and plays with them. She'll care for them as well as you do (maybe even better) I highly recommend her.”
About: I not only have a passion in fitness, but the well being of all furry pets, especially dogs! I treat every dog as my own, because they all have a heart just like we do and need to make sure we understand their needs as a companion. I am willing to go beyond and make sure your pet remains active, and know the importance since I have a pretty healthy 11 years old pup myself! Allow me to show you that you can become comfortable and know that your dog will be in great hands, while they are gaining a friend=) This is not a job to me, but a privilege! If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know! Hope to work with you and your wonderful dog soon! I'm an Exercise Science/Psychology graduate and trainer. My line of work is organized how I schedule it to make sure I am meeting standards and delivering the proper care. IF we agree to bring your fur babies in my home I could provide great accommodations. I have a sweet dog and cat so what ever I could do to meet needs.

Please send vaccine records to records@rufflanding (.com) We also ask that you provide your pets regular food, as sudden diet changes can upset their tummy.

Aside from dropping in on established pets or taking them on walks, I am home full time. We have a securely fenced yard and pets are constantly supervised when outside. We take potty breaks every 2 hours. We schedule socialization, enrichment and playtime activities to keep them busy and entertained.
“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!”
“Terry humbly reassured us she had a lot of Rover experience when we dropped off our 4 year and almost 1 year old pups for doggy day care. Being new to Rover, this was our first time booking, and it was important being from out of town that everything go smoothly, and with our soldier graduating at Fort Gordon that day. Terry exceeded our expectations, our pups got to rest and play with friends, and we got a lot of amazing pictures. Great socialization and loving caregiving!!”
“We drove down from Ohio for a graduation in GA and needed to find someone to care for our 1.5 year old golden doodle. We’ve never left her with anyone before and were a bit nervous, especially before 12 hours from home. We were so happy with Mary and Felix and the care they gave her. We appreciated the pictures of our sweet girl that they sent to us as well. We have another graduation next year and will be reaching back out to them again for sure when we are back in the state.”
“Mrs. Chelly and Mr. Joe are an absolute pleasure to be with! I can already tell that they are going to provide continuous top level care for my puppy while she’s with them. Absolutely going to be taking her back. Thank you Mrs. Chelly and Mr. Joe! I’ll be seeing y’all again very soon!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. I enjoy playing with them but most of all, give cuddles. I have a large fenced-in back yard. Pets are allowed on furniture and there are no rooms off limits. I work from home 3 days a week. I am able to take breaks at anytime to tend to your pet. We can discuss your pet’s needs in regard to when I go into the office. I have one large-breed dog who is a gentle giant. I also have two cats.

About: Hi, I’m Bri! I’m a lifelong animal lover with professional experience as a pet sitter, dog walker, kennel technician, and current kennel manager. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages, including seniors, high-energy pets, and those with special needs. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, or extra comfort while you’re away, I provide attentive, reliable care and treat every animal like family. I work full-time as a kennel manager, with shifts from 6am–2pm or 6am–6pm, so early morning or evening pickup and drop-off work best. On my days off, I dedicate my full attention to your pets, making sure they get plenty of love, playtime, and personalized care. For everyone’s safety, I ask that pets are up to date on vaccinations, flea-free, and friendly with other pets. I can only accept small dogs, as my medium sized dog isn’t comfortable around larger breeds. If your cat prefers their own space, I can keep my cats separated to help them feel comfortable.
About: I'm frequently doing outdoor activities with my dogs. I've had dogs for over 15 years. Bolt I found in the side of the road and he’s been a wonderful addition to the pack (I’m a foster failure 🤷🏼♀️)! Rollo I met at a dog path with his former owner and I happily took him in when I was asked to adopt him. If your dog is a runner, so am I! We are a very active group, but are happy to lay around and snuggle if that’s your dog’s preference too. I am flexibly available. I am a military Officer. I've had great luck securing care for Rollo and Bolt in this app and just want to share that with others as well. My goal is to make sure your dog is just as happy with me as he or she is with you because that’s what I want for my two babies when I go away. Shoot me a message, and let's make a date to introduce our dogs! I am currently searching for new employment, and thought I’d activate my account again for extra cash. I am always doing things with my two dogs - dog parks, walks, outdoor play/lounging, chicken tending, gardening and more! I love doing everything I can with my dogs. I have ten acres with a run attached to a tree in my back yard. There’s a sprinkler for your dog to play in, if that’s their thing - and because we have chickens here, you’ll fur-baby will also get a raw fresh egg with breakfast if you approve. I am happy to care for senior dogs as long as they appear happy and aren’t 💩ing everywhere in my house.
“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.”
“Cassie was excellent for such a last minute request. She’s very friendly, personable, and love what she does. Cassie thank you so much and whenever we’re in Augusta again we will definitely be in touch.”
“Lexi’s was an absolute gem taking in my Brownie last minute. I’m so grateful for her. I’m based in California but my family is taking care of him for me so having someone like Lexis that was so welcoming and so great at updating me made me feel so at ease. It’s a blessing to have people like her, someone you can trust with your fur baby 🤗 Thank you for taking care of my Brownie. I absolutely appreciate it from the bottom of my heart 🫶🏾”

About: I have taken care of pets of all kinds since I was 11/12 years old. I have a strong love for fur babies and find it very easy to connect with them. I’m no dog whisperer (maybe lol) but I do feel that I have a sixth sense that helps me to understand their needs without verbal communication to help for a smoother experience. I am currently working full time from home so I have unlimited availability and the flexibility needed to work with each and every pets needs. I currently live in an apartment that is very pet friendly. We have huge fields all around the buildings for running and playing. I do have a small dog and cat myself perfect for keeping your pets company. Both pets are dog/cat friendly and would love to share our home with tour fur babies!!
“Brandi did a great job with Rocky. It was his first time with a sitter and I was very apprehensive about how well he would settle in. He ate, pottied, played, napped and had a good time. Brandi communicated throughout the day and really made me feel more comfortable that she was taking good care of him. I would not hesitate to book with her again. Thank you Brandi.”
About: Hi there! I’m a mom of two girls and a proud dog mom to a sweet 5-year-old Yorkshire Terrier. Our home is full of love, energy, and experience when it comes to caring for both children and dogs. I’ve also fostered dogs in the past, which taught me how to support pups with different personalities, needs, and backgrounds. Just like I spoil my own pup (yes, she’s basically royalty around here), I’ll happily spoil yours too—with plenty of love, playtime, cuddles, and care. Your dog will be treated like one of our own. We have a large, fully fenced backyard that’s perfect for zoomies and outdoor fun. Our quiet neighborhood has walking paths right outside our door, so daily walks are always part of the routine. I'm currently a stay-at-home mom, so I have plenty of time during the day to care for your pup with lots of attention and love. My schedule is flexible before 3 PM on weekdays, as things tend to get a bit busier once my kids are home from school. If you're looking for morning or early afternoon walks, drop-ins, or daycare, I’m happy to work with you to find a time that fits! A few important things to note: If your pup will be staying at my home, they must be fully potty trained indoors—no indoor marking or accidents, please. If your dog has any special dietary needs or behavior concerns (such as anxiety, aggression, or reactivity), please let me know ahead of time so I can provide the best care possible. I’m home most of the time, so your dog will get constant company and attention. Communication and trust are key. In order for me to give your dog the very best care, it’s important that we’re on the same page. I believe in open, honest communication and building trust with every pet parent I work with. That way, you can enjoy peace of mind—and your dog can enjoy a safe, loving second home. Looking forward to meeting your pup and giving them all the tail wags and belly rubs they deserve! 🐾

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Matthews
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.

“DeAndre is dependable, trustworthy, and caring. He goes the extra mile to ensure our pups are well taken care of at all times. He provides photo updates and notes about his walks and visits. I highly recommend him and will continue to book with him.”
About: I have worked and been around animals since I was born. I use to work for a reserve rehabilitator and animal shop owner. I have worked with many breeds of cats and dogs and understand each one can be uniquely different. What works for one may not always work for another. I’m retired navy so I have all day to work with your animals. I can do drop ins throughout the day to check on them to let them out or take on a walk. Pretty flexible schedule. In my home I have a 5 year old husky who has been raised around cats and puppies. He is good at helping correct puppies. He has had one litter of his own pups. I do not have a fenced yard, but can take them on leash in the yard and live in a nice neighborhood to walk your animal. If you want crate training I have a couple already here at the house

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.
About: I've taken care of a multitude of dogs, big and small, since I was a little girl. I have always loved every kind of animal and love to clean and make sure things are taken care of. I am currently working part time as an administrative assistant at Topgolf, but communication is key! As long as I am given 1-2 weeks advance notice I can make myself available for you. I can easily crate your dog if needed and I am an expert at putting cats in carriers. I read animal body language very well and know when to step in and how to meet their exact needs.
About: Hey there! I'm your friendly neighborhood dog walker! With years of experience under my belt, I'm all about giving your pup the adventure they deserve. Rain or shine, I'll make sure they have a tail-wagging good time while you're away. Let's make fetch happen! I’m currently a Stay at home parent to my 6yo and 2yo. Left the full time work scene to be more present in my family’s day to day life. I’m available during weekday and weekends. I have a fenced in yard and a silly furry boy to keep yours company. But also willing to adjust to preferences if you want your pet to stay separate! I am able to crate if needed, large crate and medium crate for medium and small dogs. Also door (“baby”) gates if crating is not preferred.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats ranging from young to old, big and small, various personalities, energy levels and administrating medications. This includes rover, work, family and friends, and volunteering at a few vets/adoption organizations. I’m even great with non furry animals. I’ve had/have reptiles and mantises as pets. So I think it’s safe to say I’m a jack of all trades when it comes to taking care of your babies! Also, if you know your pet isn’t super friendly towards other cats or dogs, it’s okay! I’m currently a college student via online courses and a kennel tech with a flexible schedule. Therefore I let the owners choose the times they need or want. I love my fur babies so much. I stay on top of their health, daily exercise at the park, nightly walks and treats! I do the same for any pet because they deserve it!
About: I’ve cared for pets for friends, family, and colleagues, including feeding, walking, administering basic medications, and maintaining consistent routines. My background in ecology and animal biology means I’m especially attentive to behavior, stress signals, and overall health. I’m comfortable with all breeds of dogs, cats, horses, and other farm animals. I am a teacher who is currently available for the summer. This means I will have wide open availability to do in home pet sitting or frequent walking/taking out. I currently reside in an apartment in a safe neighborhood. Dogs love to go for walks around the neighborhood or nearby parks. There is no availability for them to ever be alone outside.
“My dog Kobe is a high energy breed who needs his speed walks everyday. When I am sick or away, I needed to find someone who can give him the high energy walks he needs and I found that perfect person in Darya! I have used her three times already and already booked her for three more. Kobe comes home happy, excited and tired all in one. Darya has exceeded my expectations!”
About: I love all animals and even have a dog of my own name zora. I've worked in grooming shops and even ran one for about 10 days straight which included boarding (with cat's and dog's), doggy day, care and even washing dogs. It was one of the best jobs I've ever had because I got to play with dogs and help them learn tricks and made sure they had food and fresh water and clean kennels and if meds given on time. I walked them and and played with them too and I felt better knowing there in good care as I know there is a lot of bad care. I would love to take care of your pup's and cat's while your away or on vacation and even walk them or drop in's too. I've done a lot of training with my pup and grew up with animals as my mom runs a grooming shop and so did my aunt plus the grooming shop I worked at that I grew up around called Sam and boos. I also worked there until I had to go back to school in another county. I would truly love to help! I am home everyday and have plenty of time to spend on caring for all the babies I have 2 of my own Zora and Zelda standard poodles that I love to spend time with and take for walk! Your babies are my full focus! My pets have the best life I could provide for them they are my main priority I own fish hermit crabs and 2 dogs! I would give your pets the same care I give mine! My animals always have fresh water there meals on time or how ever there feeding schedules are! I make sure they are comfortable happy and healthy and safe! I do crate my dogs when I leave for short periods so I know they are safe!
