“The best dog sitter I have ever had! My dog immediately loved her. She even got my dog to walk when she was scared by loud fireworks. I highly recommend Lakotah and hope to book her again in the future.”

About: I grew up with cats and dogs from a young age, I trained hunting dogs growing up, and not surprisingly, I have always loved animals more than most people. While in middle and high school, I would pet sit for several family friends and neighbors. I have had several careers working with different animals and had a small career as a professional corporate dog trainer for about 2 years. I have an abundance of knowledge about dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, small animals, and aquatic life and I always keep emergency kitten and puppy food in my car for any strays that I come across. I am used to dogs and cats of all ages, temperaments, and personalities. I have kenneling, medicating, and restraint experience and I am an AKC certified dog trainer. I work with Pawmetto Lifeline Friday - Sunday 7am - 9pm, other than that, I have a pretty open schedule. Let me know what you need and I will get back to you as soon as I can😋 While in your home, I will provide your pet with all the love and attention they lovingly deserve while you're unable to be there. As long as it's specified for their health and safety, I will be happy to oblige!

About: My 1st Drop-In visit is free for multiple visits, just ask! While taking care of multiple pets in my household growing up and dogsitting for friends and family, I know the amount of care and love a dog needs to sustain a healthy and happy life. I like to stay physically active so walking, playing in the yard, or going to the park isn't a problem. I'm currently working part-time, so I do have time to spare for your pets! I am available mainly on the weekends, but during the week I am usually free for pet care/drop off/pick up. I have a fenced yard and a walking trail in my neighborhood for anytime the pups need to go out. I can keep your dog crated or let them roam free around the majority of the house if I am not home. I am available to feed and water your pets in the morning, afternoon, and evening if need be.

“Angela has been a great addition to my dog’s daily routine. She has always shown up on time and taken Duke for his mile long outing. She obviously cares deeply for animals. If you hire her, your furry friend will be well taken care of.”

Suzanne P.

“Somiya was very proactive and reached out to meet my dog beforehand so that she would know how to best take care of her. I also loved the follow up pictures and notes on how my doggie behaved. I definitely recommend Somiya if you are looking for someone to go above and beyond for your pets needs!”

About: I love animals and know the feeling of going away and worrying about your pet and if they are happy and loved. Finding that person who you feel so confident they are loving your pet as you do, is priceless. I could be this person for you. Kennels are like daycares. They will provide the necessities and certainly care but pure volume and time doesn’t allow them to give the love like a special nanny would who is in your home. I am also a cat lover and would love to take care of your cats too. I will gladly stay in your home as well if preferred. Please consider me I work a full time job in healthcare Monday - Thur and half day on Fridays most often. If you live close to my work ( West Columbia) I can check on your pet at lunch time. I am available most weekends. I try to always keep my calendar updated so you can see my availability. I live alone so your pet would get undivided attention and love. I will cover my furniture so they can cuddle with me , as well as sleeping , if they are used to that. I will want to learn about your pet and their likes and dislikes.

“She has been amazing walking Remi! Very understanding and willing to go the extra mile.”

About: I have been a pet owner all of my life and there is a special joy and comfort that only a dog or cat can give us! I think it is important for our pets to get daily exercise to keep them happy and healthy. I'm an avid fitness enthusiast and I love all animals so getting your dog out of the house for daily walks is the perfect fit for both me and your furry friend! It's a great way for your dog to release that playful energy while strengthening their health as well. Playtime is also important in keeping our pets happy and friendly!

About: My home has always had pets and I love to care for them. I currently live in a home that is on 1/3 of an acre in a neighborhood near Irmo, SC. Although the yard is very large, it is not fenced in but a huge playground for my two dogs. I have a 2 year old beagle (Cooper) who is quiet and loving and a high energy 1 year old Australian Shepard (Ashley). They are named after the Cooper and Ashley Rivers in Charleston, SC. I spend all day with my dogs as I am a stay at home dog dad for now. I take my dogs on frequent walks on leash and very much enjoy them. They are happy dogs and they love other dogs to play with. I am a stay at home dog dad so caring for my pets is simply a part of my every day life. We have a quiet home with little if any stress and a great deal of love and happiness. My dogs are well disciplined dogs, but have free run of the house and yard. When they need to be outside they are outside and when they are inside, they have comfort and care. In your home, I would care for your pets as if they are my own.

About: I’ve had animals my entire life, giving me 33 years of hands-on experience with both dogs and cats. I recently worked in the pet care industry, which gave me even more insight into providing safe, reliable, and loving care. I personally own a German Shepherd that I trained myself, so I’m confident in handling dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. I also have experience with puppies who need structure and patience, as well as senior pets who need extra love and gentle attention. My goal is always to make your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for—just like they’re my own. Caring for pets is part of my everyday routine! I recently moved to Columbia and have the flexibility to give your pets the love, attention, and consistency they need—whether that’s daily walks, playtime, or longer stays. In My Home: I live in a pet-friendly apartment complex, so dogs enjoy plenty of daily walks and outdoor time. I have a crate of my own if needed for your pet. My own pets are very friendly and social, so visiting animals will always feel welcomed and comfortable. I keep routines consistent, making sure every pet feels at home with lots of love, attention, and playtime. In Your Home: I care for pets just as you would—keeping their routine, environment, and comfort a top priority. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or quiet companionship, I make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away.

“I cannot say enough about this wonderful lady! Friendly and flexible, my dog and my work schedule loved her. And when I had a family emergency, she allowed me to schedule a boarding on very short notice. If I'm ever in the area again, I will certainly be looking her up.”

About: I have grown up with and taken care of dogs/cat/other furry creatures my whole life. I am excited to help care for yours. I have also handled dogs with various behaviors/needs. I currently work full-time as a dietitian at a hospital but am usually pretty free on the weekends and I get off at a decent time so I am able to do an evening walk or drop in on your fur baby in the evening as well if needed! My dog, Axel, is very spoiled as he sleeps in bed with us and he gets daily cuddles. He enjoys going outside so he gets plenty of walks when it is not too hot out but on the minimum, he walks twice a day every day. I will care for your animal as if they were my own and will spoil them as much as you allow me to!
