Personalized care for your dog or cat - Ward

Highly-rated overnight sitters - Ward
“Arjun is a recently rescued large dog and we were anxious about finding a good sitter for him while we had to be away. After we met Jen, we decided to do a couple of day care type stays before we left him for almost a week. From the beginning, Arjun seemed to be at ease with Jen and her family who showered him with love and attention. He went on many long walks with them, enjoyed Jen's garden and the company of her pets Gizmo and Sparkle. Jen was constantly in touch with us, providing us photos and updates even during the one-day stays. She made him some of his favourite foods (eggs) and accomodated our requests keeping Arjun's lifestyle routines similar to what we have for him at home. Arjun seemed very happy in her care. Though he was happy to see us, we don't know if he would have missed us very much, given all the attention at Jen's. She even accomodated family & friends who visited Arjun while we were away. We are glad to have found a trustworthy friend like Jen to care for our dog while we travel. We would strongly recommend her.”

“Kim took on Hershey, our miniature dachshund, at the last minute and really got us out of a bind! Hershey loves Kim (her second Mom) and is happy and well cared for when she's with her. I'd give Kim 100 stars if that were available!”

“Monica and Christopher were great! I received so many pictures and thorough updates about Jack Jack while he was in their care. I will definitely be using again.”

“Samantha was great with our dogs! My border collie is a sensitive soul and she felt comfortable immediately at Samantha’s which is a huge compliment to Samantha! Our Irish setter is a year old and still has a lot of puppy in him. He is a little bit of a trouble maker and Samantha bonded with him and was able to navigate some of his behaviors with comfort. I will definitely go back to Samantha! Thank you so much for taking excellent care of our dogs, Samantha!”


“Aubriana was awesome. She took great care of our dog for the week she had him. Even my kids loved using her because our dog enjoyed his stay. She kept us abreast with pictures of him playing with the other dogs.”

“Jennica is amazing with my Luka! She is wonderful on keeping in touch with me while I’m away and sends pictures and updates through out the day. She is the sweetest and has been available when I need her. I’m at ease where ever I go because I honestly trust that my fur baby is in good hands and well taken care of. I’m so happy I found her. ♥️”

“Jenny was absolutely LOVELY!! She sent us many pictures throughout the day and informed us on how he was doing. Our pup had a great time with her and her kiddos. She is also extremely responsive. We would recommend her to anyone!”

“Kira was amazing with my sweet boy Shadow. She was very prompt with her responses and shared photos with me throughout the day. I will definitely be using her services again!”

“Karen is an exceptional Rover sitter. She made my anxious pup feel truly loved and at ease. Karen ensured our baby got plenty of exercise with frequent walks and took exceptional care of him during our recent trip. I highly recommend her.”

“She was absolutely amazing taking care of my doggy! Kept me up to date with everything and sent pictures every now and then. Definitely rebooking if needed and 100% recommend!”

“Amazing experience, extremely communicative and easy to work with could not have asked for a better sitter. My dogs were very happy upon pick up and my dogs love playing with her puppy.”

“We had a great experience! Daisy was well taken care of, Whittney was great communicating while we were away, and our fur baby was excited to stay! Thank you again and we can’t wait to bring her back.”

“Rachel and Logan and the absolute best! Our golden retriever Hank loves going to play and stay with them and they pups when we are out of town. He always has a blast and we can rest assured knowing that he is in great hands. Rachel sends pictures and videos each day (as many as you want) to let us know what he’s up to. I especially love that she is home with the dogs during the day and Hank gets so much time to play. He plays all day with her two labs (who are so sweet and fun to play with). If you are considering a pet sitter these are the best people for the job!”


“I cannot say enough great things about Celia! Maggie is very skittish around new people and needs time to warm up. She likes to come to you on her own terms until she's comfortable. Celia completely respected that and now Maggie loves her to death. She actually whined when we picked her up! We're so glad we found someone that we can trust with our girl!”

“Payton was awesome! She sent pictures and videos and was very responsive when I wanted to check in with how our fur baby was doing. Her husband was also a great help. We will definitely be going to them again!”

“I highly recommend Jennifer she does an amazing job we will definitely be having her watch our fur babies again if we ever need someone, she kept us updated and sent us lots of pictures and always made sure the dogs had what they needed!! Thank you!”

“It was a pleasure to meet Stephanie! She did a great job with Abby & Oscar. Especially since Oscar the cat would not come in the house before we left - I really appreciated knowing he came in and they made friends that night. Looking forward to working with her again.”

“Taylor did a great job caring for our two boy kitties! She is thorough, professional, and (most importantly) very caring! We were so glad to receive updates and pictures of our boys—she even tracked down one of them when he was trying to hide so we could see him! She did everything exactly as we asked and is very easy to work with! We are so thankful to have found Taylor to care for our babies!”
“Can’t be thankful enough for Autumn. When other plans fell through and I needed someone last minute she agreed to help and worked through issues as they came up to ensure Blitz was cared for while I was away”

“I truly can’t say enough good things about Tyler! He went above and beyond while we were away, especially having to handle all the craziness that comes with our dogs. He was incredibly patient, caring, and genuinely showed that he cared about them and their well-being. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our dogs were in good hands. We will absolutely be rebooking with Tyler, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, dependable, and truly caring to look after their pets! ❤️🐾”

“McKenna is very nice and patient with the animals. Prancer my Morkie loved her and even my big male cat who won’t make up to anyone made friends. I enjoyed the pictures and updates while I was away. She is very dependable, and I will be calling on her again. Thanks so much!”


“Adrian was fantastic! I had a last minute trip pop up and had about 2 hours to leave- Adrian responded quickly, showed up for a meet and greet within the hour, and our pups seemed to love her!”

“Madison was great with my cats while I was gone for a long weekend! She was extremely flexible with their specific individual dietary needs and went above and beyond with their care! I will definitely be a returning customer :)”

About: I am a BIG animal lover! My pets and my friends pets though out my life have always had a special place in my heart. I have been caring from friends and families dogs and cats for 5 years. I have grown up with two family dogs. One of them I had since she was a puppy and the other was a rescue that was around the age of two, but not exactly sure of his age. I am currently working part time for a promotional agency on the weekends. It is flexible and allows me to make my own schedule. Usually I work for 3 hours in the afternoon on a Thursday, Friday, or Saturday.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Ward
“Ms Kim always takes excellent care of my girls. They are puppies, with lots of energy and my schedule is not always reliable to be the same. She is great to work with and provides open communication about the status of my fur babies. Peanut and Dot love daycare days! 🐾”


“Laura was incredible with my 1 year old golden doodle Remy. This was his first time at a day care place and being with a stranger all day and she made him (and ME?) feel so welcome and comfortable. Took him for nice long walk, played ball, hang out in the beautiful fenced in backyard. Send me several pics throughout the day, gave me ease of mind by confirming that he is doing great, and having a good time. Thank you so much for taking care of my boy, I will be back for sure.”

“We came in from out of town and needed someone to watch our dog while we were attending an event. Our dog was happy and Hillary even clipped his nails for us. Thank you!”

“Shermida is amazing! Super sweet and amazing to work with. Great response times and communication, wants to know how to best work with pups to make time with the the best it can be. Would highly recommend! Would love to be able to have my girls with her again!”

“Luna had a fantastic time with Shannon and her daughter. They were caring and attentive to Luna's need and we will definitely be using their services again. Shannon reached out with updates and pictures throughout the day and is a very good care giver.”

About: I am a certified veterinary technician with a bachelor's degree in Veterinary Science and Technology and have grown up training my own animals (although I am not a professional trainer). I spend lots of time with every animal I care for and have been offering house and pet-sitting services to friends and neighbors since I was 9. You can rest easy knowing that I have experienced a wide variety of situations and that I can also handle medical emergencies well with my training in the veterinary field and history as an ER/Urgent Care veterinary technician. I usually have a very flexible schedule so I can accommodate your pet's needs at whatever time you prefer. I like to meet up with you and your animal before I take over and can work with you easily to make it a convenient day and time. I have grown up with large dogs and horses and have had years of clinical experience with them, so I am very confident in my ability to handle your pup no matter what size they are. If you're here for a cat don't worry! I grew up with what we called our cat herd and was known as the cat whisperer at a few clinics I've worked at. I am a big fan of enrichment and would love to know what your pets' favorite toys are to keep them happy. I also know how important it is to exercise pups to keep them healthy so if they have a walking schedule, or something similar, let me know so I can help keep them moving!
“Buttercup had a great time with Kira and friends. She came back happy, tired, and well taken care of. Kira was friendly and helpful with our new baby fears. Buttercup will be back for sure?”

About: Ever since I was a child I have had a passion for taking care of animals: From fostering dogs as a child, getting my first job in a boarding facility, and 5 years as a veterinary technician. With my depth of experience from the veterinary field I can administer medication, provide care to those with special needs, and ensure a safe and healthy environment while providing love and affection. I work entirely from home and am available at all times of the day. I never would leave any dog unattended except for short periods, in which they would be safely crated. I take the utmost care to provide a safe and healthy environment for all pets including my own. I am meticulous in keeping our home clean, preventing any potential hazards of being in reach of animals, and ensuring there is clean water available at all times. At the same time, I want every guest to feel at home, and believe in animals having access to as much space as possible, feeling comfortable to sleep on the furniture and explore the house while supervised.
About: Growing up, I always had 4 pets at any time, and was in charge of all care for them! 2 dogs and 2 cats, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, litter, and lovings. I currently have 1 cat and 1 pup of my own. My most frequent client has 4 large dogs and 1 bunny, all of which get spoiled under my care. I have experience with the most common pet breeds: dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, fish, and hamsters, Guinea pigs. I am entirely caring, responsible, assertive when needed, and prompt. I work full time Monday-Friday in downtown Augusta 8:30am-5:30pm. I’m currently not able to leave during the day for lunch time potty breaks unless it is very close to there. For home boarding and doggie day care, my boyfriend mainly works from home and loves sharing the love ! The app also doesn’t always quote the correct prices for me, so please message me if you have any questions :) For house sitting, I fully stay at your home and take care of your pet, as if I am at my own home. I always take care pets and the home itself. I will always leave a place cleaner than when I arrived! For boarding, we have baby gates to separate animals for their own time, etc, when necessary. Our enclosed bricked in yard is perfect for any dog that wants to fun around and play fetch with our girl Ivey. He husband loves fur babies just as much as I do.
About: I’ve taken care of many dogs of different breeds for family and friends. I also helped my granny on the farm when she use to breed cocker spaniels. Puppies are perfect for cuddles but so are big dogs who think they still fit in your lap ! I enjoy taking my Doberman on runs in the park, he’s very friendly and loves meeting new pup pals ! Depending on the schedule my husband or son may be with me on the visits. My husband is military and often out of town so we enjoy dog walking and sitting together and cannot wait for our lives to settle down where we can add another fur baby to our tribe. I’m currently going to college and working but my hours are 9 to 5 which allow me to be flexible with morning and evening routines. I am currently not offering in home care for pets at this time. If this changes I will update my profile and detail sections. Thank you.
About: HI!! My name is Quyon but i go by Q ! Im 27 years old and i live in aiken South Carolina. I have completed the Veterinary Assistant Course at Aiken Technical College and completed 102 CEU Credits interning at The Ark Animal Hospital and Wagner Veterinary Clinic. To care for anything living is truly remarkable but to love and care for animals is the greatest reward! Right next to face licks and fury hugs! I was introduced to rover from a friend when i needed a sitter and i decided that since im in a position to offer help i will. Feel free to ask me anything im as cool as a cucumber lol maybe a bad joke lol I am currently not working at the moment due to just completing school and wanting a break. This offers me a way to make money and still include the care and compassion i will use in my future endeavors. I live in a spacious apartment. I have no problem taking them to a fenced animal park or for a walk through the neighborhood to enjoy so fresh air and new views
About: I've been around dogs of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments, pretty much my entire life. I can handle all aspects of a dog's care, from feeding and routine excercise to bonus hang out time or other extra special attention as needed. I've always felt a special connection with dogs, and they've always responded well to my calm, but firm energy. I will treat your dog with the utmost care, providing a sense of security and familiarity as we build a bond. I am currently proud parent to my 3 year "dog"ter, Eevee, who is a happy-go-lucky American Pit Bull Terrier with a heart of gold. Eevee and I, along with my wife, enjoy taking trips to go fishing, visiting the North Augusta Bark Park, and exploring Elijah Cove Dog Beach. We're excited to have your dog be a bonus member of our pack! I currently work part time, so I have plenty of time to accommodate your pets' schedules and needs. I'm happy to arrange "Doggie Day Out" for adventures/external stimulation (hello, naptime!) or simple potty breaks/mini hang outs - whatever works best for you! I have a fenced backyard, as well as the ability to separate dogs in my home, as needed. I do have one small/medium dog crate that can be used if needed/requested, though I prefer to have everyone together for maximum good times! My dog, Eevee, has a variety of toys and cozy blankets on hand that she is more than happy to share. I also offer a variety of dog treats should extra love be required: usually some form of organic cookies or fresh fruit (bananas, blueberries, and strawberries). Your dog will be in safe and happy hands.
About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give every pet as if they were my own. I know every dog/cat has a unique personality and routine, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. As a stay-at-home mom, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. Because I’m home throughout the day, I have the flexibility to give pets plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or at a client’s, safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I create a calm, pet-friendly environment that’s free of hazards and full of love and structure.
“Jessica was amazing! She helped out last-minute when my other sitter canceled. She asked questions to make sure she had all info needed for Cooper. Communicated throughout the day and sent lots of pictures. Clean house and even went extra the before Cooper came over to make sure any small things were picked up off the floor since he’s a puppy and puts everything in his mouth. Her kids were an absolutely delight for Cooper to play with. Will definitely use her services again!”

“Jennifer and her husband were so kind and made me feel so comfortable with my first Rover experience! They have a great fenced in backyard for dogs to play in, and their dogs are very sweet. Would definitely recommend to others looking for a sitter!”

About: Reliable and caring pet sitter with a natural love for animals. Attentive to each pet’s unique needs, providing a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment while owners are away. Experienced with dogs, cats, and small animals—treats every pet like family. I have experience with special needs, and senior pets, as well as potty training puppies. When I meet with family, questions are answered in order to arrange the best schedule for you and your pet. Currently pet sitting is my full-time position, which allows flexibility to keep your fur baby as close to their usual schedule. When caring for a pet in their home, I do my best to keep the same routine and care that the parents keep. Ongoing communication, learning about each individual animals personality, likes and dislikes, and any medical concerns are important to make sure your pet is getting the best care and you have piece of mind while you're away.
About: Growing up I always had dogs (and cats) which made me an avid animal lover from horses to dogs to cats. I have owned several dogs throughout my adult life. I currently own three dogs ( Sputnik, Newt, Ares) and love them more than anything. I work at the zoo with other avid animal lovers. Sea turtles and otters are my favorite btw. I've worked at a doggy day care and have volunteered my time at shelters and other zoos. I'll give you a full report after every visit with your fur kid. I can administer medications if needed. I'm used to all kinds of activity levels. I can accommodate seniors, hyper active and everything in between. I look forward to meeting you and your fur kids! I'm currently working part time, so I'll have plenty of time playing with your pups. I can easily stop in before work and spend some time with them and even longer after work. I am used to dogs that are escape artists, so your dogs will. always be safe and secure with me. I can easily read a dogs body language so nothing is unexpected.

About: I grew up with many dogs and cats and have loved helping take care of all animals ever since I was a kid! I have experience helping family friends by taking care of their pets while out of town. I am currently out of college for the summer and have a very open and flexible schedule and are available for any pet sitting or walking needed! Whether you need your dogs crated when leaving or they’re allowed to be out I will make sure they’re comfortable before leaving! Whatever specifications you have for your pets I will gladly do my best to make sure they are followed and make sure they get lots of love before I leave!
About: Hi there! I’m Cecilya, and truthfully I’m just looking for more reasons to spend more time outside. Animals have always held a soft spot in my heart and will treat yours as if they were my own when needed. — As a distance runner I’m always looking for a running buddy because my couch potato Rottie isn’t built for distance. If you need check-ins, long walks, short walks, or maybe even want your pets to just have some company for a while I would be more than happy to build long lasting relationships to ensure long term comfort for your pets. I’m really picky about who watches my pets because I don’t feel like people will provide them the same type of care, but I will provide you with as much or as little updates, pictures, and check-ins to ensure your comfortability. I work from home and would be able to give your pets lots of attention throughout the day. I take regular breaks and would like to use these for more productivity than doom scrolling, so getting out of the house for drop ins or take my work with me for a longer sit in and play situation. With my work from home schedule I can easily keep a consistent feeding, bathroom, and cuddle schedule allowing me to be able to provide genuine companionship and care to your pets. I have four cats of my own, and each of them have their own quirks and personalities. I’m used to meeting my own pets where they’re at and moving at their pace to care for their needs and not push their boundaries. I play with them in spare moments but my cats are more cuddly than most so they all play with each other more than with me. I’m never one to force a cat to like me, if your cat does not like attention I won’t go out of my way to make them uncomfortable in their own home. For dogs, I’m experienced with daily grooming and health routines like brushing teeth and cleaning ears, and I make sure they get the right mix of exercise, attention, and downtime. Whether I’m in my home or yours, I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and happy while sticking closely to their usual routine.

“Nicole was amazing! I contacted her last minute to walk my pup and she was completely willing to help me out. Copper seemed happy when we arrived home later. I would definitely book her again :)”

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!
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.

“Emilee has cared for my husky and kitten multiple times, and I’ll book with her next time I go out of town. She’s a great communicator, takes great care of my pets, and they always come home happy and healthy!”

“Arjun is a recently rescued large dog and we were anxious about finding a good sitter for him while we had to be away. After we met Jen, we decided to do a couple of day care type stays before we left him for almost a week. From the beginning, Arjun seemed to be at ease with Jen and her family who showered him with love and attention. He went on many long walks with them, enjoyed Jen's garden and the company of her pets Gizmo and Sparkle. Jen was constantly in touch with us, providing us photos and updates even during the one-day stays. She made him some of his favourite foods (eggs) and accomodated our requests keeping Arjun's lifestyle routines similar to what we have for him at home. Arjun seemed very happy in her care. Though he was happy to see us, we don't know if he would have missed us very much, given all the attention at Jen's. She even accomodated family & friends who visited Arjun while we were away. We are glad to have found a trustworthy friend like Jen to care for our dog while we travel. We would strongly recommend her.”

“Samantha was great with our dogs! My border collie is a sensitive soul and she felt comfortable immediately at Samantha’s which is a huge compliment to Samantha! Our Irish setter is a year old and still has a lot of puppy in him. He is a little bit of a trouble maker and Samantha bonded with him and was able to navigate some of his behaviors with comfort. I will definitely go back to Samantha! Thank you so much for taking excellent care of our dogs, Samantha!”


“Aubriana was awesome. She took great care of our dog for the week she had him. Even my kids loved using her because our dog enjoyed his stay. She kept us abreast with pictures of him playing with the other dogs.”

“Sarah & Hagan are wonderful! They gave my shy girl extra attention until she was comfortable and kept me updated along the way. They stayed on top of special instructions like watching my boy's allergies and ensuring both babies had their bedtime toothbrush chews. The kennels are great! They have an open section with fans and one enclosed with A/C (or heat) so my spoiled baby had her A/C and my boy could enjoy sprawling to watch the other dogs. Trusting them with my babies is easy and I look forward to boarding with them again. Thank you guys!”

“Jenny was absolutely LOVELY!! She sent us many pictures throughout the day and informed us on how he was doing. Our pup had a great time with her and her kiddos. She is also extremely responsive. We would recommend her to anyone!”

“Our 14 mo old Australian Shepherd stayed with Autumn and her family for 12 days. Gemma had a great time with them! She returned home happy and full of life. We received photos which we loved. I can not recommend Autumn enough!!”

“Kira was amazing with my sweet boy Shadow. She was very prompt with her responses and shared photos with me throughout the day. I will definitely be using her services again!”

“She was absolutely amazing taking care of my doggy! Kept me up to date with everything and sent pictures every now and then. Definitely rebooking if needed and 100% recommend!”

“Amazing experience, extremely communicative and easy to work with could not have asked for a better sitter. My dogs were very happy upon pick up and my dogs love playing with her puppy.”

“We had a great experience! Daisy was well taken care of, Whittney was great communicating while we were away, and our fur baby was excited to stay! Thank you again and we can’t wait to bring her back.”

“Rachel and Logan and the absolute best! Our golden retriever Hank loves going to play and stay with them and they pups when we are out of town. He always has a blast and we can rest assured knowing that he is in great hands. Rachel sends pictures and videos each day (as many as you want) to let us know what he’s up to. I especially love that she is home with the dogs during the day and Hank gets so much time to play. He plays all day with her two labs (who are so sweet and fun to play with). If you are considering a pet sitter these are the best people for the job!”

“Payton was awesome! She sent pictures and videos and was very responsive when I wanted to check in with how our fur baby was doing. Her husband was also a great help. We will definitely be going to them again!”

“I highly recommend Jennifer she does an amazing job we will definitely be having her watch our fur babies again if we ever need someone, she kept us updated and sent us lots of pictures and always made sure the dogs had what they needed!! Thank you!”

“Such a great experience! Yolanda was attentive to our pets and took lots of pictures for us to see how they were doing during their stay with her. I recommend Yolanda! We had no worries or concerns while she had the pups. That speaks volumes when you leave your fur babies for a week with another person. We would select Yolanda's profile again when we need a sitter. She was great!”

“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!”
