About: I grew up in a home with three dogs, so caring for pups of all sizes and personalities feels like second nature to me. Whether your dog loves long walks, snuggles, or playtime, I know how to tune in to what makes them feel happy and safe. I live on James Island within easy walking distance of parks and dog-friendly paths, and I also have a clean yard that’s perfect for supervised outdoor play. With no other pets in the home, your dog gets my full attention and a calm, comfortable space to relax. I’d love to give your pup the same care and affection I grew up giving my own! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I can provide early-morning walks or drop-ins before work, lunch break check-ins/walks, and I’m home by 5 p.m., so evening walks, drop-ins, and playtime are always an option. Fridays and weekends are wide open for more flexible care. Your pet’s routine is important to me, and I’m happy to work around the schedule that keeps them happiest. I make safety and comfort my top priorities, whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in yours. I live in a very walkable neighborhood close to several parks, which makes safe, enjoyable outings easy. At home, I have a secure yard perfect for quick supervised potty breaks. I follow each pet’s individual routine and am comfortable using crates if that’s what your dog is used to or feels safest in. My goal is always to create a calm, structured environment where your pet feels secure, understood, and well cared for

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and grew up with both dogs and cats! I absolutely love spending time with animals and have plenty of experience helping care for pets for friends and family. Whether it’s going on walks, playtime, feeding, or just giving them some extra love and attention, I’ll make sure your pet is happy and well cared for! I currently work part-time, so I have a pretty flexible schedule and plenty of time to spend with your pets! I’m free a few times throughout the week and most weekends when I’m not traveling. I’d love to help get your pup out for some fresh air, exercise, and extra attention! I’m a huge animal lover and grew up with both dogs and cats, so I’ve always loved being around pets! 🐾 I’ll treat your pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while in my care. I’m happy to follow their normal routine, favorite walking routes, or any special instructions you have!

About: I've been actively caring for animals for more than 14 years :). Growing up, I regularly pet-sat for family friends, and my family often took in stray cats and litters of kittens, giving me hands-on experience with pets of all ages and personalities. Today, I have three cats of my own and continue to pet sit for friends and family. I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. Whether your pet needs playtime, companionship, a consistent routine, or extra patience and attention, I'm committed to providing loving and reliable care while you're away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I have a full-time job with a very flexible hybrid schedule. On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, I can work from anywhere, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide care, check-ins, walks, or companionship throughout the day. I currently specialize in occasional bookings, vacation care, and drop-in visits. At this time, I’m not accepting recurring weekly walking schedules. I'm also fully available on weekends. At home, I care for my three cats with my partner, which allows me the flexibility to accommodate pet sitting while ensuring every pet gets the attention and care they deserve. I enjoy spending time with animals and am committed to keeping them happy, comfortable, and on their normal routine while you're away. I provide care that is tailored to each pet’s needs and routine, whether in my home or in a client’s home. In my client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their normal schedule as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, playtime, litter box care, and any specific instructions provided. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, affection, and companionship while their owners are away, along with regular updates for peace of mind. In my own home, pets are cared for in a calm and safe environment. I ensure they are supervised, given a consistent routine, and treated like part of the family. I currently have three cats of my own, so I understand how important it is to create a clean, low-stress space where animals feel secure and cared for.

About: I’ve had dogs since I was a child. I now have two of my own. My dogs are my family, and I make sure they are well cared for always! I will care for your dogs like my own. I am in between jobs, so I have lots of time to spend with your pet. I will make sure they always have lots of attention and love, providing them with plenty of walks and play time. Your dog will have access to lay on my couch and roam freely through the common areas. While I don't have a yard, we do lots of walking!

About: I have been watching cats and dogs for eight years. I'm happy to walk, play, and hang out with your pet as long and as often as needed! I love playing with all kinds of animals regardless of age, breed, or size. My top priority is ensuring your pets are in good hands and that you feel at ease as a pet parent. I am in my first year as a Hybrid Student Physical Therapist at MUSC. Because of the hybrid schedule, I have lots of flexibility throughout my day, whether for a quick drop-in or hanging out while I am in my Zoom meetings/doing classwork. I have two dogs and two cats and live with my boyfriend, so I typically go home around noon to give my dogs a potty break and again in the evening to spend time with my family. I am eager to build relationships with you and your animals to provide the best most familar care! When possible, I like to meet with the pets and owners before I watch them for the first time to ensure comfort. I will follow any rules/routines you have in place for your pet(s). I understand how hard it can be to leave your animals, so I will send lots of updates and pictures.

“Colby was very quick to reply to our inquiry and our pups needs were expertly tended too! He really appreciated you taking him on a new expedition! Thanks again so much for your flexibility and support!”

About: I have been a lifelong pet owner and have over 15 years of professional experience working with animals. My journey began as a volunteer at an animal shelter and grew into roles as a pet groomer and veterinary technician. Currently, I am pursuing a double master’s degree with a focus on animal ethics, welfare, and conservation. In my free time, I dedicate myself to supporting local conservation initiatives and caring for animals of all kinds. With the flexibility of graduate school, I now have the opportunity to expand my pet sitting and dog walking services. I am currently providing cat sitting and dog walking for several clients in the West Ashley area and am excited to expand my services to West Ashley, John’s Island, Ravenel, Hollywood, and downtown Charleston. I love caring for dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, and other small animals. In addition to pet sitting and dog walking, I am trained to administer medications thanks to my veterinary technician background. I also offer baths and nail trims for both cats and dogs. While I am retired from full grooming, I provide “mini-makeover” services such as teeth cleaning, ear cleaning, and paw pad shave-outs. Feel free to reach out with any questions—I’d love to help care for your pets! I am currently a double masters student and a TA part time. I also have private cat sitting and dog walking clients. I have plenty of time to take on new clients as my main school schedule is twice a week in the evening. I do teach downtown three days a week for 3 hour blocks but have plenty of free time otherwise. I promise transparency, trust and commitment to taking care of any pet or animal under my supervision. As a double masters student with a focus on animal ethics, welfare and conservation, I promise the best care for your pets. Pets are family and should be treats as so. I am experienced with giving oral and intravenous medication for animals. I have previous experience as a vet technician and 15 plus years of animal husbandry skills.

About: Hi- if I have taken care of your furry best friend I am taking a break from in home boarding while we wait for our home to be build. I would love to continue watching your babies when we get into our new house. I am still doing drop ins for cats. 🐈 Hello my name is Sarah and I would love to help ease your stress around leaving your furry family member while you travel for work or play. I have experience with older dogs and will really learn what you and your animals need to feel good about their time away from you. I can do drop ins, walks or boarding. I have been watching dogs since living in the Caribbean when people left the island. We have an animal loving home with boys that love to cuddle with animals and 2 youthful kitties that have grown up around dogs and love to interact. I will work with you to make sure you feel like your animals will be treated as good as they would be at your house. I love sending pics and videos of your fur babies to you. I want you to have fun while you are away and know your animals are in good hands. 🩷 Thank you for choosing our family! I have many regular clients on and off Rover that stay with me. If your dog does not get along well with other dogs and you would like a private booking please let me know and we can discuss private rates. Otherwise I may have another dog that I am caring for when your baby is with us. If your dog has any bathroom habits that will help me with the stay please let me know. Thank you! I have a great schedule that will allow me to walk your dog during the day if we are boarding and I am available most weekends. If it is a drop in I can do that after 2 during the week and anytime during the weekends. I have summers off so I can do pick ups to take your baby to Folly if that is what will make your dog happy! I have a big fenced in yard and can have your baby sleep where they are comfortable. I have taught my children to be very careful when opening our front door. They make sure your dogs safety is the first priority.

About: Hello! I have been taking care of my close friends' animals for a few years now. My friends all trust me explicitly and know I will love their babies like they do. I've now been referred to so many people, I've decided to make it a full time side business. I would love to have a huge farm one day where I can rescue all the unwanted animals and give them the lives they deserve. I work from home so I can keep dogs all day during the week. I am in and out on weekends, so I can keep animals on weekends I am in town, as long as they are ok in a house with my dog or in their crate. I have a large, fenced in back yard, 1 friendly male Boykin, neutered. I allow animals to sleep on the bed with me and they are allowed on the couch. I walk my dog at least twice a day and usually take him to the park or beach on weekends. My boyfriend and I live together so he will be around as well.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs from the age of 4 weeks old to 15 years old! I’m comfortable with both puppy care, senior care and everything in between! I currently work 3.5 days a week and I am always open to dog sit. For walking my viability is Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday! I am not able to host dogs at my home but would love to come care for them at their home where they have all of their things and are more comfortable!

“Catherine took our two terriers for a walk. She is patient and caring. It’s obvious that she loves dogs. Our two loved their time with her! Thank you, Catherine!!”

About: I've been a devoted pet parent for over 18 years, caring for both senior cats and dogs with all the love and attention they deserve. I currently care for my goofy, senior pup, Jurado, who has joint concerns, so I’m well-versed in the patience, gentleness, and special care our aging companions need. I recently said goodbye to my cat Miss Dora after 16 beautiful years together—she was truly my soulmate. I love both cats and dogs equally. The more the merrier! Every pet has their own personality and needs, and I find joy in connecting with each one on their terms. Having lived the corporate grind and relied on pet care services myself, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry family with someone. Now that I work remotely, I’m excited to bring that same support and peace of mind to other pet parents. I'm also highly detail-oriented and take pride in following specific care routines to the letter (administering medications, sticking to feeding schedules, supporting mobility needs, etc). Your pets will be treated with the same love and respect I give my own. As a remote worker, my schedule is flexible and fully pet-friendly. I'm home throughout the day, which allows me to give pets consistent attention, timely meals, potty breaks, and lots of love. I structure my workday around their needs, whether it’s a quick walk, a play session, or simply keeping them company. Weekends are also open for pet care, so I’m available for both weekday and weekend bookings. Your pet’s routine becomes part of mine. I follow your instructions closely and keep routines consistent to help pets feel safe and grounded. I'm attentive to changes in behavior or health, and I’m always happy to provide updates so you never feel out of the loop. In my home, I have a fully fenced-in yard, very walkable neighborhood, and can crate if requested. I make sure spaces are pet-friendly and supervised, especially for senior pets who may need extra support navigating stairs or slick floors. I treat every pet like family, with kindness, patience, and lots of affection.

About: Hello! My name is Croft and I am WFH Marketing Professional & full-time animal lover. I am a Charleston native. I have grown up raising and being around 4-5 dogs at any given time - currently have a mixed baby of my own. I love to exercise with dogs! I am a beach bum and avid surfer so if your pup likes the beach, I would love to take them. I will run, walk, play with, and also lay around lazily with dogs! I can administer medications to your pup, having also worked with large animal vets with my horses. I live downtown but will travel for overnights. I love the outdoors and find animal company to be the best company. I cannot wait to meet your furry friend :) I currently work from home with only a few site visits a week. I own my house and have a backyard as well as a park pretty close by. My schedule varies, depending on how I like to get outside, but I am only ever away from my home for an hour or two at a time. I have a fenced in yard and a very sweet, seven year-old boy dog who loves company. I am very involved in the community and if your dog likes to get out, I would love to take them to the dog park or the beach or even to my friendly gym!
