“I cannot recommend Savannah enough! She kindly took my request last minute and was absolutely wonderful with my cat, Romeo. She spent so much time playing with him and really went above and beyond to make sure he was happy while I was away. I loved that she sent me daily pictures and updates—it gave me such peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. Truly grateful for how attentive and thoughtful she was!”

About: I have experience taking care of dogs, cats, and even a lizard! While taking care of dogs, I am comfortable taking them on walks and to the dog park. I do have 2 cats of my own, so I’m very familiar with caring for cats. I am available Monday, Wednesday, and Friday until 3PM, and open availability Saturday and Sunday. I wake up early so morning walks are welcome! Overnights are welcome as well. I live in a very pet-friendly area. I don’t leave food out and keep a clean home. Pets are welcome on the furniture. If your pet is on a bathroom schedule, I will stick to it!
“5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Dakota was absolutely amazing! She took care of my home, two cats, and even a fish while I was away, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She gave my pets so much love and attention, sent regular updates and photos, and left my home spotless. I came back to happy animals and everything just as I left it. I felt completely at ease knowing Dakota was there. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, caring, and communicative sitter!”
“Izabella was great! She was timely and super communicative. She sent so many photos which I love when being away from my cat. I knew Stevie was in good hands while I was gone and I would definitely book Izabella again!”
“Sangram is the best! He always responds immediately, sends tons of photos, and genuinely cared about my three cats while they were in his care for over a week. He even got my super shy cat to come out of hiding and sit with him! My litter robot needed rebooting while I was away and he was happy to help reset it. I’d definitely recommend him to anyone and am so glad to have found a reliable sitter!”
About: I’ve had a dog my whole life and always helped take care of them. I’ve loved pets for as long as I can remember. I even started a dog walking/sitting business back at home in NY. I now go to Charleston for school and would love to start that back up here! I’m a student at Charleston. I have a lot of free time during the day so it will be easy for me to stop by or stay with pets close by! I live in a dorm so I cannot have pets here but, i’ve been pet sitting for a long time and I adjust well to different homes/routines for the pets.
“Grace did a phenomenal job caring for my kitties! She gave insulin injections to my elderly cat. She was reliable and very kind. I will definitely have her care for them again in the future!”
