About: I have walked dogs and puppy sat in my childhood neighborhood as well as volunteered to walk dogs at APS of Durham. I also have a sweet, loving dog of my own who I’ve had and taken care of for over seven years. She has anxiety so I am very familiar with dogs who are shy or scared of humans. I am a student at Anderson University and am looking for a way to make some extra money and get a short break from studying by taking care of your wonderful dog(s)! I live in a dorm room on campus so am not allowed to have dogs over, but would love to come to your place and take care of your pet there!
About: I have had dogs my whole life. I am also the co-founder of a rescue and have experience with the care of the dogs in our rescue. I also have 4 dogs of my own. I am currently retired , so my schedule is flexible. I can spend time with your pet to play, take for a walk, or just hang out with. I’m also available to feed your pet if needed. I have experience with a variety of different dogs, and am able to handle large or small dogs. I love to bond with them to earn their trust.
About: I have over 8 years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. As a pet owner myself, I’ve had multiple dogs and have provided pet sitting services for countless dogs and cats over the years. I have experience with puppies, senior pets, and animals that require medication or extra attention. The most I’ve cared for at one time is two dogs and two cats, so I’m comfortable managing multiple pets while ensuring each one receives the care and attention they deserve. I genuinely love animals and have the flexibility to provide reliable, attentive, and compassionate care for your pets while you’re away. Over the next few months, I’ll be out of school, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m available throughout the week and on weekends to accommodate your pet care needs, whether it’s drop-in visits, walks, or overnight care! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special care instructions so they feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. I treat every home with respect, keep a clean environment, and make sure doors, gates, and other safety measures are always secure. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.
About: Please reach out to discuss rates! I’ve been an animal lover since I’d first discovered them as a young child, it never mattered the type or size, I’ve always been drawn to them. I grew up in the PNW where I spent many years in 4-H, showing horses and participating in our local county fair. Last year we took the leap and moved to South Carolina with our 2 senior dogs, 4 cats, and bearded dragon, and have been loving how beautiful it is. Since our move, we have acquired 3 more cats that were picked up as strays, bringing our total to a whopping 7 cats! I truly wouldn’t have it any other way. I have experience with all sizes, breeds, and energy levels of dogs, as well as behavioral issues. One of senior dogs struggles with reactivity while on leash, and I make it a point to make sure he is always comfortable and safe while out. I also specialize in pets with special needs who may require a little extra attention and care. One of the kittens we took in is completely blind, amongst other things, and had required daily medication at times. She also suffers from behavioral issues which is why I’m so adamant on being patient with animals. They are learning every day, just as we are. If given the opportunity, I promise to treat your animals as I do my own, with love and grace. I’ve been blessed enough to have a very open schedule and can pretty much fit any time a pet may need into my day. Whether it be weekdays or weekends, I’m flexible and have reliable transportation. The safety and comfort of your pets are my top priority and I plan to treat them the way I treat my own. I’m very mindful of securing doors and fences to insure your babies are safe and secure where they are supposed to be. I speak to all animals the way I would speak to a friend because I believe, while they may not be able to understand all the words, they can understand tone and intention.
About: My family is a big dog family with two Great Danes I’m used to big more heavy set animals so I do not scare easy. I have a work from home job so I am well fit to give around the clock potty breaks and walks whenever it is needed. We have multiple cats in our household so I am used to regular feedings, treats, playtime and providing all the attention your pet may need!
About: I’ve house sat other dogs, regularly house sit my own dog and have had a variety of other animals of my own through the years Right now I’m home basically all day I donate plasma twice a week for about an hour and sometimes DoorDash for a few hours I always follow whatever special instructions you have for your pets whether that be taking them out a certain number of times or special feeding instruction
About: I’ve cared for a variety of pets over the years, including two sweet senior dogs and a cat, and I’ve loved every moment of it. I have volunteered at a local animal shelter near Clemson where I took dogs out on “doggy daycations” — long walks, fresh air, and of course pup cups to make their day extra special. I also grew up helping care for my family’s Australian Labradoodle, so I’m comfortable with everything from energetic playtime to gentle, patient care. Whether your pet wants adventure, affection, or a calm companion, I’m here to make them feel safe, loved, and happy. I have a very light semester at Clemson this year, which means I’ll have plenty of downtime and a flexible schedule for pet care. Whether you need regular walks, drop‑ins, or last‑minute help, I’ll be around and available. I love spending my free time outside anyway, so your pets will get lots of attention, fresh air, and fun while you’re away. I always prioritize safety and comfort. I have hands‑on experience walking untrained shelter dogs outdoors, so I’m confident handling pups who may pull, get excited, or need a little extra patience. I’m gentle, calm, and loving with both dogs and cats, and I make sure every animal feels secure and respected in my care. Whether we’re out exploring or relaxing at home, I create a safe, positive environment where pets can be themselves and feel completely at ease.

About: Hi, my name is Sarah! As a dog mom myself (I have a 17 year old Yorkie named Ruby), I know how special our pets are to our hearts and the importance of finding a great, caring sitter for those times when we must be away. In addition, I have ample pet-sitting/walking experience with both large and small breed dogs, cats, birds, guinea pigs, raccoons, and a variety of other animals. I’m responsible, kind, and genuinely love critters of all kinds! I’m also more than happy to provide references, if requested. Please message me if you have any questions! Pet care is incredibly important to me. Therefore, I prioritize and customize my routine based on pets’ needs to ensure that they are cared for to the highest standard. I am happy to care for pets in the client’s home or in my own, depending upon the client’s needs/preferences. I feed, walk, play, take out for potty breaks, and spend quality time with pets. I am also comfortable with giving medication to pets if needed.
About: Dogs instantly trust me because I give them love, patience, and fun! I treat each one like family and make sure they get plenty of playtime, cuddles, and care. I can take care of pets 6 am to 12:00 am and on weekends.

You will have photos and videos all the time if you prefer.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Anderson
Maddie was able to help us out last minute and take our dog for a walk. She was on time and had excellent communication. She greeted Pepper and made Pepper feel comfortable. Our dog is a large dog and very strong and Maddie had no problem walking her. Pepper enjoyed her walk and was very tired afterwards! I would definitely contact Maddie again to walk our dog.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
