“I just moved to South Carolina a month ago and had to be away a couple of days this past weekend. I was quite anxious having to find someone to stay in my home and take care of my sweet, Nala. She is older, is a rescue, is a large dog, and the move was alot for her. I arranged a meet with Jerry and I was at ease right away; more importantly, Nala was at ease right away. I think dogs sense immediately if a person is a good fit or not. The day I had to leave, Jerry showed up on time (a bit early, actually, which I truly appreciated) and Nala was very excited to see him. Jerry sent many pictures and texts about how things were going over the two days, let me know when he had to leave for awhile and communicated when he was back. Nala needs alot of love and Jerry was attentive and very willing to give affection to her. The stay could not have gone better. Jerry was also very respective of my home and took good care of everything while I was gone. I highly recommend Jerry and am grateful I found him on Rover.”

“This is the 2nd time Mya has house/pet sat for us and I feel very comfortable with her in my home! And our skittish dog seems to be warming up to her, which is always a good sign!”

About: Hi friends and family! My name is Gaby and I’m 20 years old. I devote my life to making your fur babies happy. I love all dogs and your fur baby will be treated like family ❤️. I’ll follow their routine, shower them with playtime, and send you daily updates & pics 🐾📸. Guaranteed to make you and your pup smile 😊. Dogs have always and will forever hold a special place in my heart. I was a mommy to my own 2 fur babies that I took in for a family member for 4 years. I have raised litters of puppies multiple times all by myself. Growing up I would take care of my friend’s fur babies at no cost because it meant I would get free cuddles and a best friend all in one. I’m a full time pet caregiver. I’m very flexible with time since I am home 24/7. I will accommodate my time to match your pets needs. Follow their routine (feeding, playtime, potty breaks) Give 'em love & attention 🐾❤️ Keep their space clean & comfy Watch for any health concerns (energy levels, appetite) Update clients regularly 📸 Be very attentive, responsive, and patient. 📍DISCLAIMER 📍 ***Please make sure all pets vaccinations are up to date and treated for tics/fleas. 🚫🪳***

“Kerstin had a nice overnight stay with Sadie. The house was immaculate when I returned home, and Sadie was a happy girl. I know she had lots of attention and snuggles! I would definitely use Kerstin again.”

“Diego was a godsend. He was willing to make two home visits so Patch could get to know him better. Patch was clearly very comfortable with Diego, Diego check in regularly, sent photos, and left my come home cleaner than he found it. Even washed linens and towels. Patch and I have a new friend for sure. I highly recommend Diego. PS Being new to the area I also got some great suggestions for restaurants and coffee houses.”

“Christine was so nice to come to my house last minute early in the morning when my boyfriend had to go to work suddenly and couldn’t watch my dog which my doodle while I was on vacation for my birthday. She was patient with him provided fast response. I’ll forever use her services”

“Jonathan is an awesome dog sitter! I will definitely hire him again in the future. He kept me informed about how Bear was doing during the entire stay. I came home to my home being in great shape too. Bear was happy to see me, but I think.he misses Jonathan.”


“Mason did a great job pet-sitting our dogs! She is very kind and our pups love her! She is reliable, kept the house tidy, and communicated with us very consistently!”

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 14, so caring for animals has been a consistent and meaningful part of my life. What started with helping friends and neighbors has grown into a real passion for providing dependable, attentive care. I also have extensive experience with rescue dogs. I’ve fostered through licensed rescues and taken in dogs I’ve personally helped rescue, which has given me a strong understanding of different temperaments—from high-energy pups to more anxious dogs that need extra patience and trust. I currently have four rescue dogs of my own, so I’m very comfortable managing multiple pets while making sure each one gets the individual attention and care they deserve. My goal is simple: to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for—just like they would at home. I currently work from home part-time, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pets in my care. I’m available throughout the week and on weekends for boarding and daycare services. For in-home sitting and dog walking, I’m available on Wednesdays and Saturdays. I do offer some flexibility with advance notice, so I’m happy to discuss specific dates or scheduling needs. Please feel free to reach out with any questions—I’m always glad to help coordinate what works best for you and your pet. Your pet’s safety always comes first in my care. I run a lively, dog-friendly home with multiple rescue dogs, so I’m very experienced in managing group dynamics, reading behavior, and making sure every dog is introduced properly and feels secure. I believe in letting dogs be dogs—getting to play, explore, and be part of a structured “pack” environment—while still maintaining clear boundaries and supervision at all times. I take introductions seriously and make sure each dog is comfortable before integrating them into the group. I’m crate-friendly and happy to follow your dog’s routine, whether that includes crating for rest, downtime, or safety. Each dog gets individual attention as well as safe social interaction, depending on their personality and needs. I have a large, secluded yard with natural tree lines, though it is not fenced. Because of that, dogs are never off-leash until I’m confident in their recall and comfort in the space. Until then, all outdoor time is supervised using a leash or long line so they can safely explore and burn energy. When caring for pets in your home, I keep their routine as consistent as possible and make sure they feel comfortable in their own space. At the end of the day, your dog isn’t just being watched—they’re being included, understood, and cared for as part of a well-managed, active environment.
“Antonio was great with our nervous/reactive dog, Waylo, and knew not to push to create a relationship. Both Penny and Waylo were in great care, and updates were provided regularly. We felt confident that our dogs were in good hands. We definitely recommend Antonio, and would gladly use his services again.”

“Logan is thoughtful, professional and just a delight to work with! I have extensive instructions for my babies and she followed them all well. My older dog doesn't trust new people quickly. Logan continued to try to engage and build that trust throughout her stay. She sent wonderful updates and communicated regularly. She tidied up after herself and was a great house guest. Highly recommend!”

About: I live in a I don’t just watch pets, I get to know them. From learning their quirky habits to keeping their routines steady, I treat every furry guest like my own. I focus on creating a calm, cozy, and genuinely loving environment, so your pet feels safe, understood, and totally at ease. With consistent communication, personalised care, and a whole lot of heart, I make sure your pet’s stay isn’t just stress-free—it’s something they actually enjoy. Pet care is naturally set into my daily and weekly routine. I schedule my day around feeding times, walks, play time, and check-ins to ensure every pet gets consistent care. Mornings and evenings are dedicated to exercise, enrichment, and cuddles, while afternoons include potty breaks, supervision, and rest time. My schedule is flexible and intentionally designed so I can give every animal the attention, and time they deserve. When pets stay in my home, I create a safe, supervised, and comforting environment set to their needs. I maintain clean spaces, provide cozy rest areas, and offer play time. I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications, and preferred activities, so their stay feels familiar and stress-free. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my goal is to keep their routine uninterrupted. I handle feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, medication, playtime, and any specific instructions exactly as provided. I also respect the home environment by keeping everything tidy and secure. Whether in my home or yours, I focus on communication, safety, and reliable, compassionate care that helps pets feel calm, comfortable, and understood.
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. I was raised around them from the time I was 5 years old and started learning how to care for the animals around me. I have a Husky of my own that is my bestest friend and a big baby that is super spoiled. I would love to make your pet feel just as loved with me as they are with you! I work from home so I would be able to provide optimal care for your fur baby. I also have completed vet assistant school and have worked as a volunteer at the humane society multiple times throughout my life. I am currently working remotely so I am able to take care of your pets really whenever. I am pretty open to any schedule that you may have!! I can easily crate your dog if needed, I also have a 4 month old husky puppy to keep them company that is extremely friendly and loves to play.
About: I've taken care of different breeds of dogs up to approximately 40 lbs. This has included grooming, administering medication, walking, and light training. I have taken a training class at the Humane Society for dog care. I have also taken care of horses including grooming and training for barrel racing and showing. I have taken care of bunny rabbits up to 19 rabbits at a time. I am flexible in my availability. Although I prefer part-time, I would be willing to stay with pets or have pets stay with me full time for specific periods of time for one month intervals. In special situations, I would consider longer intervals (to be determined on a case by case basis). I have ample space to walk dogs on my nearly 3/4 acre rural property which includes grassy and wooded areas. At this time, my flexible schedule allows me to spend plenty of time devoted to provide love and care for your dog. Currently, I do not have a dog myself. However, I have had the pleasure of owning dogs in the past. Now I am enjoying caring for my 11 year old pet rabbit Zahara.
About: With over 7 years of experience in dog sitting and house sitting, I have cultivated a deep passion for providing exceptional care for animals. My flexible work schedule allows me to accommodate various pet care needs, including extended stays of weeks or a few days. I have had the privilege of working with a diverse range of animals, including dogs, cats, rabbits, and more. My goal is to alleviate your concerns and provide you with peace of mind by ensuring that your beloved pets receive the utmost attention and care. I bartend/serve in Greenville lunch shifts are from 4pm-12am some nights I get off a lot earlier around 10:30. My schedule varies with the shift times but I always try to communicate that and have my calendar updated for clients! I am currently pregnant and due end of September so at the moment I’m not so comfortable with large dogs in case of them jumping on me but smaller animals for the time being would be great! I prioritize ensuring the well-being of the puppies in my care by maintaining a clean and respectful environment. I provide them with ample food, exercise, water, and playtime. Additionally, I regularly communicate with the owners through updates and photographs to monitor their puppy’s safety and happiness.
