We had a scare from our pups getting into stuff they shouldn't have. Kayla notified us, stayed twice as long as normal, contacted a local vet for advice, and implemented the medication we requested. We're so comfortable and relieved having her part of our support system!

About: I've grown up taking care of cats and dogs. My professional pet sitting experience includes small and large dog breeds, as well as cats. I have a background in animal science and care so I am the ideal sitter for pets with high medical needs and elderly pets. I am willingly to take dogs on long walks or runs, and take them to the park. I am not certified, but I can do basic training (sit, stay, etc) and leash training. I currently work from home, so I am available at home 24/7. Great for pets that are potty training or need multiple play times a day. I abide with the rules and schedule of the owner. Not required, but I encourage a meet and greet for first time clients for care instructions and to ask any questions.

From beginning to end, was not disappointed. I got alerts everyday when she arrived and when she left. Plus I had picture updates, which helped a bunch. ☆☆☆☆☆

Christina is a kind, extra special human being. During forecasted inclement weather she went out of her way to make sure fur babies were fed. She is a gem and I would highly recommend her to take care of your babies🐾💕

Hannah is awesome. This may be the third or fourth time she has watched our pets. She does a great job of being on time and communicating everything that is going on. We highly appreciate her rover cards giving clear details of the visit and the care of our pets. She is great! Will definitely rebook again!

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life—both large and small, long-haired and short-haired, male and female—so I’m very comfortable with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and care needs. My experience includes daily walks, feeding routines, bathing, basic grooming, and administering medication when needed. I also have experience with cats, including feeding, litter box care, playtime, and respecting different temperaments—from very social cats to more independent or shy ones. I understand that cats often need a calm, low-pressure approach and consistency in their routine. In addition, I have mild but comfortable experience caring for small caged animals such as hamsters, guinea pigs, and similar pets. I’m familiar with basic feeding, cleaning enclosures, and making sure their environment stays safe, clean, and consistent. I’ve also worked at a dog daycare and boarding facility, where I cared for multiple animals at once in a structured, high-energy environment. Outside of that, I’ve provided pet sitting for friends and family over the years, including in-home care where I followed existing routines and kept pets comfortable while their owners were away. My goal is always to treat every animal with patience and care, paying attention to their individual needs and making sure they feel safe, relaxed, and looked after while you’re gone. I work a weekday job, but I have a consistent and reliable availability for pet care. I am off work at 4 PM Monday through Wednesday and available for evening drop-ins, walks, or care visits after that time. On Thursdays, I am off work after 1 PM, giving me earlier afternoon availability as well as evening flexibility. I am fully available Friday through Sunday, including daytime visits, extended care, and overnight stays depending on your pet’s needs. I’m open to both recurring weekly schedules and one-time bookings, and I do my best to accommodate advance requests when possible. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my priority is always safety, routine, and making sure animals feel as comfortable and secure as possible. I follow all feeding, walking, and medication instructions exactly as provided and pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and stress levels. In my own home, I have a cat and a dog, and any boarding or in-home care would be done with careful introductions and only when it’s a safe and appropriate fit for all animals involved. I keep a calm, structured environment and prioritize supervision, separation when needed, and respecting each pet’s comfort level. In a client’s home, I respect the space, keep things clean, and maintain the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel secure in their environment. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners know their pets are safe and doing well. I’m comfortable caring for dogs, cats, and small caged animals, and I always make sure litter boxes, enclosures, and feeding areas are kept clean, secure, and properly maintained. Safety is a top priority for me—I pay attention to doors, leashes, feeding instructions, and any behavioral notes so pets stay safe and routines stay consistent.

Andrew was wonderful with Lola. He gave detailed reports each time he visited and sent multiple pictures. She was very happy to see us when we got home, but she was in great hands with Andrew!!!

About: Hi, I’m Sam! I live in NE Columbia near Sandhills, and caring for dogs isn’t just something I do—it’s truly part of who I am. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, breeds, and personalities, from tiny puppies to giant seniors. I’m also the South Carolina Manager for Daisy Bean Rescue, where I’ve helped countless dogs find their forever homes. That means your pup will always be in the hands of someone who knows how to keep them safe, happy, and loved. I work from home and my schedule is pretty flexible and your dog would almost never be unattended. I can take frequent breaks to make sure your dog is well looked after and not alone. I want to care for your pet just exactly the way you would if you were available. I strictly follow all care instructions and make them as comfy as possible until you return.

About: I've taken care of my shih-tzu Maltese ever since I was 8 years old she unfortunately passed away and I now have a labradoodle. Family always depended on me to care for their dogs as well. Bathing, feeding, play time, walking etc... I was and still am the go to person when anyone needs a hand to dog sit and fulfill their dogs need when away for vacation or work. I now have a fluffy labradoodle whom I adopted from CA when he was only 4 months old in 2024. He is my best bud, loves toys, dog parks, new scents, walks, running aka sprinting lol, boarding, doggy camp, other dogs and lovessss humans lol he'll jump up on you and try to give you kisses but he gives the best hugs . I have worked at PAWS in Norwalk, CT, where I provided feeding, medication, walks and play time to the dogs in the shelter. I have also worked at Greenwich Animal Hospital as a veterinary assistant, assiting with blood draws, nail clippings, surgery, cleaning, X-rays, medication stocking, supply stocking, baths, obtaining specimens, sterilization of instruments, walkings, and vitals. I'm so excited to get to know some pup owners and of course the pups as well. Thank You!!! I care for my dog by allowing him to have as much play time he desires. Being his company makes him feel safe and having fun with him is my way of expressing my love to my fur baby.

About: I have a special connection with animals, Especially dogs. I have had dogs all my life, from puppies to elder ones. After losing my dog due to old age, it makes me appreciate dogs even more! I like to think that dogs are equal to having a child, they need attention and love! I’ve even worked with dogs with disabilities. I am a true dog lover and you will have my word that I will treat your dog with the the attention and love I can possibly give. I am very strict with myself on following your rules for your dog. I will do my best and always respect what you want for your dog and what your dogs needs are. I always have a fun time with dogs and I’ll even send you pictures to keep you updated with your dog. I go for walks every morning therefore guarantee your dog will get their walks in with me in the mornings and even some in the afternoon! I will always make sure to follow any rules you have in place for your dog. I will also make sure that they are in a safe environment. Water will always be available anytime and I will feed your dog per your instructions.

Aleksandra went above and beyond taking care of my two cats for a week at the last minute after my prior coverage fell through. I highly recommend her and she will be the first I ask should I need someone to watch them again.

About: I've been providing large animal care for over eight years. I have cared for many dogs, cats, horses, and chickens. I currently have a horse of my own, as well as a three year old bearded dragon. I also had my own chickens for over ten years. Pet care brings me great joy, and I love getting to know the fur babies that I am lucky enough to care for. I am a college student, but am now on summer break. I currently have extensive availability, and am flexible with dates and times. I will still be available once classes begin, but with changes depending on my schedule. I am happy to provide care and attention to pets who are highly social, but also work well with those who prefer a bit of distance or may be more uncomfortable around strangers. I take slow steps to gain the trust of new animals, and make sure they can clearly understand my intentions in order to prevent startling them. I tend to ask owners plently of questions to be sure the animal's specific needs are met to the best of my ability. I am happy to send plently of pictures and updates throughout my time caring for your critters!
