“They treat our babies like family! We can’t be more thankful for Hannah and her family! Our fur babies get so excited to hang out with them!!”
“Jadine was great for our dog Sunny! She communicated well throughout the weekend sending photos and updates. We felt Sunny was in good hands!”
“First time I used Nikki and will definitely continue to re-book. When you’re out of town and away from your fur baby sometimes you worry but she sent multiple pictures throughout the day of my little one. I appreciated the care she put into it!”
“Kristi and Will were amazing with our boy Winston. They sent multiple pictures and updates a day that helped us feel like he was getting the best care and attention while away from home. We could reach out any time to check in and would always get a response right away. We could tell he enjoyed his time and would absolutely recommend them to anyone that needed their pup watched!”
“Sarah did an amazing job with my two dogs! Communicated well and I could tell my girls were very well taken care of! She was very understanding when an issue arose and was very gracious!”
“We were really nervous leaving our Morgan with ANYONE for the first time...but Kathy was so communicative, patient, and understanding. Morgan had an amazing vacation away from Mom and Dad, and made herself right at home. Kathy made sure Morgan was loved and active. Our Morgan truly enjoyed her time playing in the amazing yard too! We loved Kathy's updates and pics throughout our furbaby's stay! Morgan will definitely be vacationing there again!”
“Lina was great! We met with her the week before and the first meeting went really well. The day before our trip, one of our dogs hurt his leg and Lina was great to work with and took great care of both our dogs. She sent us daily updates on how the dogs were doing with pictures. Will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Jennifer is an amazing sitter. Our pup adores her and she is our first choice when we need to leave our little guy. We highly recommend your pet to her loving and efficient care. 🐶❤️”
About: I've owned dogs my whole life and I'm endlessly loving. I love going for runs, in fact I get up early and go for one most mornings. I'm patient with puppies and gentle with elderly dogs. I've dealt with everything from strokes to seizures, and cleaning up after sick dogs doesn't phase me. I'm a student at the College of Charleston so my availability shifts, but I'm always willing to work with your schedule. I've been a runner for years, and I have two dogs of my own, so no matter how energetic your dog is I promise they will be worn out by the time I bring them home. This is my full time job, so I am absolutely devoted to taking care of your babies! They will certainly never lack attention or love! I believe in a calm environment and introducing dogs gently to their surroundings. If I sense stress or defensiveness, I am confident in my abilities to navigate that situation in the safest and easiest way possible.
“Megan did great with my pup! He came back tired and happy after a fun stay!”
“I wish I could give Jessica a 20-star rating! She was incredible! My old doggy boarder was a chain and I was truly happy with them for all of Cannoli’s life! But once the new owners came in, I wasn’t as satisfied. Jessica had been recommended from a Facebook neighborhood group from several people so I tried her out. I’m so very glad I did! When she came over to meet us, we loved her immediately! She obviously has a lot of experience and she fosters as well! She sent pics every day and gave updates on our baby! One of the best things about her was that there is one on one interaction. In addition to that, her two young kiddos are very involved as well and so our Cannoli got tons of loving! Plus she allows pups on the furniture! Which was also a big part of why we love her! I just love that our baby doesn’t have to be in a kennel most of the time. I wish we found Jessica sooner! We will be using Jessica from now on!!”
“Stephene was AMAZING! She kept us updated throughout his stay. Multiple walks daily and lots of snuggles! She will be our first choice for any future trips.”
“Brianna watched our two large dogs for two weeks while we got married and she did a fantastic job. I would let her take care of my dogs again without hesitation. Thank you again Brianna for being such a great pet sitter. : )”
About: Currently, I work in veterinary medicine and am looking to care for pets outside the office. I have always been an animal lover and have had pets since childhood. I am currently working full time as a veterinary assistant. We recently lost our only fur-baby so our house is needing some animals to love on. While in our home, your baby will have our full attention. While I am at my regularly scheduled 8-5, my husband is home during the day and can give potty breaks and belly rubs as needed! I will care for and love your animals just as you do while you’re away. (But maybe with some extra treats 😊) We love all animals here!
“Zadok and his family were excellent sitters for my cat Rango. We only had him for a few months so sending him off was quite a challenge especially with not knowing who we were sending him to. Zadok quickly made us feel comfortable and communicated every step of the way prior to the boarding, during the boarding and even after. He truly does have a heart for the pets he keeps and would highly recommend him to anyone needing sitting services. His place is neat and clean and he is truly accommodating to the needs of the pets he keeps.”
“We felt very comfortable leaving Tucker and she kept us up to date with details and pictures. We booked her again while she was still watching our puppy and glad to have found her!”
“Our dog was so well taken care of during her stay! Alisha was super to deal with and sent us pictures and updates while we were out of town. Thank you for such wonderful care!”
“Hillary was VERY accommodating to me with my many schedule changes during this stay. She checked in regularly and even provided my pup with a complimentary bath. Recommend without hesitation!”
“I can't say enough good things about our experience with Allison! My pup Dakota is typically very anxious about any new experiences, but she left Allison's house calm and happy. I loved getting updates regularly, which helped reassure me my pup was getting the love and attention she deserved :) Will definitely be using Allison again in the future!”
About: I have been taking care of and had many dogs for over 15 years! I love dogs and cats of all ages and have 3 sweet pups and a cat of my own 😊 I can help train your new puppy or relax with your senior dog. Whatever style fits! I own my own business and have a lot of free time during the week for your dog or cat care needs. I do travel often on the weekends, but can accommodate weekend sitting if reached out to at least 14 days in advance. I have a fully fenced in yard available for your furry friends and 3 extremely friendly and playful dogs of my own. Your pet will be very well taken care of here!

“I have never had a pet sitter that treats my dogs as well as Brianna does. She definitely treats them as her own. I have 2 Great Danes who can make a pretty big mess, but it’s never a concern for Brianna. She keeps them very happy while I am away and my mind is at ease knowing they are being well cared for.”
