Mia pet sat overnight for my senior dog and cats. We did a meet & greet beforehand and she asked lots of relative questions. She provided updates throughout the weekend and treated scout like a queen. The cats were being aloof this weekend but she tried to make friends with them. Thank you Mia for letting me getaway and caring for my babies.

Reagan was great! She sent plenty of photos and proivided updates on how everyone was doing. Very respectful of the house. When we got back, the animals were happy to see us, but did not act like they had been ignored, which is the best compliment I can give.

Our Gil is hesitant around new people but Monica won her over and took great care of her. She sent photos and video updates daily which gave us so much peace. Monica left our home in immaculate condition and we came home to a happy puppy.

About: I’ve had family dogs almost my entire life. When my latest girl, Jaina, passed after 14 years together, I shifted to pet sitting rather than full-time ownership. My friends, neighbors and roommates can always rely on me to watch their pups whenever they have work or travel plans! I currently live with a beautiful Doberman and am his primary care giver when my roommate travels for business. Our favorite activity is an adventure to Folly Beach where we walk, look at the ocean, and visit the dog friendly restaurants for his doggie-menu treats & pup cups. I’m also a Gold Star Rated Uber Driver that allows riders to bring their animals with them on trips. I attend church in downtown Charleston every Sunday so my Sundays are reserved for me. For extended (week+), I am willing to have a discussion to fulfill needs on that day. I also work as a freelance/contract bartender. While I have no set schedule, days that I accept those gigs will likely result in an 8-10 hours stretch where I would be away from sitting. Give me a shout and I look forward to meeting you and your pups! I work part time as a bartender and with special events but on a contract/freelance basis. I’m also a Gold Star Rated Uber driver with an active setting that allows riders to travel with their animals. I attend church on Sundays so I tend to leave that day free for myself. I make my own schedule which allows for a lot of flexibility. I care for my roommate’s Doberman when he travels for business. We go on walks, to the park, the beach and play in the backyard. I give him his meds twice a day. His water is in a fountain bowl and his food dispenser on a timer. I refill as needed. He is an Alpha so I won’t be offering to watch other animals in my home. But I look forward to traveling to you!

Katie was absolutely amazing watching our golden retriever, Lincoln. She came for a meet and greet so we could show her around which was so helpful and gave us comfort leaving our doggo with her. She took amazing care of both our house and our dog - sending frequent updates and making sure Lincoln had everything he needed. Would absolutely recommend Katie for any dog sitting or house + dog sitting needs.

About: I’ve been a pet sitter and owner for years! I grew up with both dogs and cats in my house and have experience taking care of dogs from 10 pounds to 100+ pounds. I have taken care of puppies and seniors too! From walks, playing, feeding, and even bathing I’ve done it all. I also have cat experience and would love to check in on them as well for you! I have a pretty flexible schedule in the mornings and evenings and would love to use that free time to come and check in and love on your animals! I cannot keep pets in my own home since my roommate has a dog but I am very willing to stay at your home with your pets!! Even if it’s just a drop in I will make sure your pet is safe and cared for in your home!

About: I grew up in a small town in South Carolina surrounded by animals and have cared for dogs and cats my whole life. Back home in the country, my family has always had several pets, so I’m very comfortable with feeding, walking, playing, bathing, and giving lots of attention and affection. Since moving to Charleston, I’ve really missed being around animals, and I’d love the opportunity to help care for your furry best friends like they’re my own. I have a flexible schedule and can easily make time for walks, drop-ins, overnight stays, and quality playtime with your pets. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so caring for them never feels like a chore. Whether your pet needs extra attention, exercise, cuddles, or just someone dependable to keep them company, I’m happy to help! I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets and your home, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m patient, attentive, and will always make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll follow any care instructions closely, keep routines consistent, and make sure your furry friends get plenty of attention and care.

Jenny was truly wonderful and made our first time leaving our pups so much easier and stress free! I was very nervous leaving our boys as they have separation anxiety, but they absolutely loved Jenny and she sent me pics daily showing them playing and snuggling with her! She made sure they were walked daily, got all their needed medicine, and had lots of love while we were gone. I appreciate her keeping us updated and for ensuring our home was nice and clean before we got back! 12/10 would recommend Jenny!!!

Emma was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of both of my dogs while Lorena and I were away for a few days, and we couldn’t have felt more at ease. She was attentive, responsible, and clearly loves what she does. We got regular updates, and it was so reassuring to see how happy and comfortable our dogs were with her. I would 100% recommend Emma to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!

Naomi was an absolute dream come true for us! We had only had our fur baby for 3 months before we left for vacation and we were so nervous about how to make sure she was cared for. Naomi went above and beyond to take care of our precious dog in our home while we were gone. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone!! (except when we need to book her again haha) Thank you for saving our vacation Naomi!!

There are so many wonderful things to say about Abbie…where to start?! If you had to rate her on a scale of 10, with 10 being the best, I’d give her an 11🤗 Her communication was exceptional. I had multiple pictures of the animals and detailed messages of what they all did, both in the morning and evening. And with 6 fur babies to care for, that’s not easy. Abbie also took note of additional items that needed attending to, such as cleaning dishes, taking out the trash, and remaking the bed. Items I never mentioned needing to be done, but she took it upon herself to go above and beyond. We were so grateful for the love and care she provided for our fur babies and the peace of mind Abbie provided while we were gone. Abbie will absolutely be the first one we call when we go out of town again.
