“It was a pleasure working with Merrell. She was able to care for a very anxious dog and a dog with health issues for me. It gave me peace of mind to know that she was pet sitting while I was away.”


“Meghan took great care of our kitties while we were away for a week over the Christmas holidays. She was very responsive leading up to the trip, and she was accomodating to our needs even during her own Christmas plans. She checked on them once a day and sent pics and updates after each visit. If there were any concerns, she updated us right away. We came home to happy kitties!”

About: Dog care has been a well known trade of mine for over 15 years. I am best with smaller-medium dogs, unless your big dog is a good walker! You can thank my sister’s lab for that last comment LOL. I am studying law, so I have flexible summers. My only job is remote, so I am able to work often. I do not plan to leave the Columbia area for long periods of time this summer. While my home is already occupied by my three cats, I will do whatever you feel necessary to respectfully watch your pets in your home. I offer zoom/skype/FaceTime calls during my stay if you ever want to see how your pet is doing!

“This is my second time leaving my cat with Venetia and she was just as amazing! The pictures I got throughout the trip told me all I needed to know, that my cat loves Venetia and getting to play with her! Thank you, Venetia!”


“We LOVE Johann !!! My pups , especially my Rottweiler does not do well with strangers. He bonded with Johann very quick and I can’t thank Johann enough what he do for my babies while I was out of town. He is the person you can trust with your pets”


“Natalie did an excellent job taking care of Tater and Fiona again over the Christmas holiday! She kept us informed and sent cute photos that made us smile while we were away. Natalie is great!”


“Marilyn is fantastic- conscientious and patient, thoughtful and kind. Our kitty is super shy but Marilyn didn’t give up on her and that means the world to us”


“Stephanie did a wonderful job visiting and caring for Dottie and Milton. We got updates during each visit and they clearly enjoyed her presence with them. We’re new to the area and look forward to her being our pet sitter when we are out of town again. Highly recommended!”


About: I grew up with dogs for all of my life and am a big fan of animals. I have experience watching both dogs and cats from spans of one day to over a week. I appreciate the happiness animals bring to our lives! I live in the Forest Acres area and have wide availability due to a flexible work schedule. I am available for drop ins and walks on a daily basis. I am respectful of instructions and rules and am thorough. Animals deserve care, support, and love at all times, and I can provide that structure for you when life gets busy. They are members of the family too! :) I have wide availability for any needed visits and services. My weekly schedule is steady without many variables. Pet care is a priority for me. Constantly ensuring they are comfortable, hydrated, fed, and safe. For walks, maintaining awareness of the weather. Maintaining interaction throughout the day to prevent any loneliness.

About: Love living in the area, I have always enjoyed spending time outside in all seasons. On any kind of day, I would love to give your family member a walk/run in the neighborhood or at a nearby park/path or whichever they prefer to get some fresh year and exploration through the smells/sights. For the playful pup, I love to run around and play with them until the sun goes down. I have experienced many years with easy and difficult dogs as being a pet owner myself, finding love and care for all creatures all life from dogs all the way to my 3-year-old goldfish. I can not wait to meet your furry family member and give them all the pets and love they fully deserve!

“Gail is wonderful with our two dogs! She is dedicated to making sure your dogs are well taken care of. Our dogs are exercised well and happy to have her! She always sends us detailed updates and is very attentive.”


“Erika was so kind and friendly! I knew when we met that my first experience with Rover was going to be a great one. My pup loved her and she sent photos everyday to let me know they were well. Thanks so much Erika! Rhonda will miss your visits I’m sure. ☺️”

Kaylee W.
“One thing I’ve always loved about Kaylee is her love for animals. She’s trustworthy, caring, hardworking and always lends a helping hand even without being asked. She has babysat my dog so many times. Finding someone you trust to watch your fur babies can be stressful but I know every time she’s watched Dodo she will take care of him and love him like he’s her own. Dodo is a big yellow lab and can be a handful haha but she has always been so reliable and does such a good job with him. Plus he loves her and is comfortable with her and as a dog mom that’s the most important thing to me. Kaylees love for all animals, no matter what breed, shape or size is special and you can always count on her to be there for your fur babies just like how she’s been there for mine:)”

Arcadia Lakes pet parents share their Rover experiences
This was my first time using Rover so I was a little worried about how it would go but Meghan was so fantastic. My cats are usually shy and timid around new people but she made them feel comfortable and was extremely attentive and communicated very well. I could not be happier with how it went! I will definitely be rebooking with her in the future!!

Merrell was pleasant, positive and great with updates. Our scoutie wasn’t super friendly but Merrell kept trying and that’s all we could’ve asked for!!!

Stephanie did a wonderful job visiting and caring for Dottie and Milton. We got updates during each visit and they clearly enjoyed her presence with them. We’re new to the area and look forward to her being our pet sitter when we are out of town again. Highly recommended!

Thank you so much for taking such good care of my babies and sending me updates! It really put my mind at ease.

Alyssa was fantastic! We have a young puppy who requires a little extra attention and we are also very particular about keeping up with her training and manners. We really appreciated that she was attentive to our detailed instructions. Alyssa was super responsive, on time, and provided our girl with lots of love and play time!

We have been booking with David to look after our pups since we’ve relocated to Columbia. We can see the difference in how our puppies respond to him now vs how they did for the initial visit. David does an amazing job with showing up on time, making sure they’re all fed and have play time during his visit. He is very well mannered, expresses great communication skills and leaves us worry free while we’re away on vacation. Without a doubt, we would highly recommend booking with David whether it’s for a short period or like us for a two week stay. He is very consistent with his work and will check in with you to make you feel comfortable about the care your pups receive while you’re gone.

Erika was very attentive and caring. sophie and whiskey seemed to not even miss a beat once we got home! She is great with communication and responds promptly. I most definitely will use her again if availability allows.

100% Would recommend to anyone!! I was lucky to find Elizabeth 3 days before a late notice trip to watch my pup. She immediately accepted and came to my home for a meet and greet later that evening. My pup immediately took to her and any worries I had were calmed as soon as we met. She gave thorough check ins complete with pictures and was so easy to communicate with. I returned home to a happy pup with absolutely zero issues, concerns, or complaints. I can strongly say that I would trust Elizabeth with my pets and in my home any day of the week! She is a true animal lover who takes pride in caring for others pets as if they were her own.
