“Abby is awesome! Highly recommend, she takes great care of my 2 dogs and one of them is a senior with mobility issues and Abby goes above and beyond for her. Thanks Abby!”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and proud cat + dog mom who truly treats every pet like my own. What sets me apart is my deep, hands-on experience with dogs of every life stage — from tiny puppies to wise seniors. I used to breed dogs, so I’m very comfortable with young litters, potty training, socialization, and all the playful chaos that comes with puppies. On the other end, I cared for my own dog through her golden years until she was nearly 14, so I know how to give seniors the gentle care, extra patience, and comfort they deserve. Whether it’s a bouncy puppy who needs structure, a senior who just wants soft bedding and slow walks, or a cat who prefers calm companionship and playtime on their terms, I bring patience, consistency, and genuine affection. I’m based in Charleston and love exploring local spots for safe, enriching walks and adventures. Most importantly, your pets will feel safe, loved, and well-cared for — because to me, they’re family too. I am currently working but I have off every Wednesday and a few Monday and Fridays. I would love to do this full time eventually. I will make sure to follow your specific instructions for your individual pet needs. Every dog and/or cat will be treated like my own.
“Brittany was great! I don’t use Rover that often and it still sort of freaks me out sometimes. Brittany sent some photos of Porter and left a cute note before she left. I felt so much better having Porter get some awesome attention mid day when I was at work.”
“Kristin was fabulous when we needed someone to step in while our default dog sitter was gone! She took lots of photos and wrote great summaries. I will definitely use her again!”
About: Pet care experience: I’ve been obsessed with dogs my whole life. Big, small, fluffy, chaotic, you name it. I’ve walked, wrangled, and loved every breed imaginable. I work from home full time so I’m basically already on dog-parent hours. My two chihuahuas keep me humble and they’d love the company. Your dog is in good hands I work remotely so I’m home all day with a genuinely flexible schedule. No rushing, no “sorry running late” texts. I can do morning, midday, or afternoon walks depending on what works best for your dog. Consistent and reliable, and I actually like going outside and tend to walk 5-8 miles a day Your dog’s safety is my top priority. I stay aware of surroundings, keep walks structured, and know how to handle dogs of all sizes and temperaments. My two chihuahuas have taught me more patience than I ever expected. Your dog will be treated like family.

About: I have grown up with cats and dogs my whole life and absolutely love animals. I have a cat of my own who is 8 years old and loves to play! I’m a nurse and will take great care of your animals! I work only three days a week as a nurse and would have time on my days off to do drop in visits for pets! I care for my pet by providing regular food and water, giving them exercise, providing a clean litter box, and making sure there are no hazards.
“Rachel spent the week walking my dog, Bran, 2x/day. She did an excellent job. It was a crazy heat wave and my dog was a bit limp from the heat but she got him out and about at the park running around off leash. Thanks Rachel for doing a great job. Bran loves you!”
“Mary was friendly, professional, and always on time. She was great with our dog and made us feel comfortable knowing our pet was in good hands. We had a wonderful experience and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable dog walker!”
“Elizabeth took great care of my dog Haze while taking him for multiple walks throughout the day, she spent extra time showing him love and even brought packages inside for me. Will definitely be scheduling more walks with her in the future.”
About: I just haven’t met them yet! Your furry bestie is going to have the time of their lives when I take care of them. I am very reliable and responsible. I have experience with all types and personalities and I can’t wait to meet your hairy besties! I have almost all weekdays between 9-2 to take care of your pets!

Ami Cooner was wonderful with my small dog! She was reliable, attentive, and clearly genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such good hands while being walked and cared for. Communication was great, and my pup was happy and well cared for when I returned. I would absolutely book with Ami again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!
Isabelle was great! Attentive and friendly. Snoopy enjoyed his time with her and we appreciate her so much! We were able to enjoy lunch while on a quick getaway to beautiful Charleston & Snoopy got his steps in. Def recommend and will def be securing with Isabelle on our next trip.
Morgan is amazing!! She loves our bubba just like we do, and gave us the best reports while we were away. She spent time with him when it was rainy and they couldn’t take as long of a walk, it meant a lot to us she spent the extra time. Anyone would be lucky to have Morgan checking on their pup while they’re gone!
