Dog Sitting in Charleston

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life, and caring for animals has always been a natural part of who I am. I genuinely love spending time with dogs - whether that’s going on long walks, keeping them active, or even stopping to say hello to dogs in yards on my walks home (something I find myself doing at random homes downtown quite often). I’ve also volunteered at a dog shelter, where I gained experience working with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. That experience taught me the importance of patience, attentiveness, and creating a calm environment for every animal. As a natural animal lover I will always bring lots of care and attention to every walk or visit. I am very active, reliable, and detail-oriented. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and genuinely cared for. I’m currently training to pursue a career in professional soccer! My schedule is very flexible and I am open to working with times that works best for you! I will love up on your pup as if it were my own!! I’m happy to work with your/their preferences. Whether that means tossing a ball at the park or going for a long walk!

“This was a last minute booking, thankful Allison was available to help with Sunny. I will definitely use her again.”

About: My name is Megan I’m a travel nurse who has traveled the US with my 2 dogs. My 2 pups love playing with others. We will love to care for your dogs! I’ve grown up with dogs and have had my own since college! Enjoy taking dogs on long walks and to parks to play. I’m in the medical field so able to provide any need to your animal. I’ve been around dogs since I was 9 and wouldn’t want it any other way. Dogs are a persons best friend and I will care for your dog just as you would while you are away. I cannot wait to take care or walk your furry friend and look forward to meeting the both of y’all! I work Monday- Thursday at the hospital. I have time after work and all weekend to care for pups! My afternoon routine with my dogs are long walks after work and play time! I have a fully fenced in backyard and 2 friendly old fur babies that love to play.

About: I’m a reliable and caring dog walker with experience caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to gentle senior dogs. I understand that every dog has unique needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. As a travel nurse working three days a week, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable pet care on my days off. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and quality one-on-one time with your pets. Whether your dog needs exercise or companionship. I’m committed to providing attentive and reliable care tailored to their needs. I currently live down in the French Quarter of Charleston and am loving exploring the walkability of this area. I cannot have any pets in my apartment but I have transportation to get to your area.

About: I have nearly a decade of experience caring for dogs for friends, family, and repeat households. I’m especially experienced with adult dogs who thrive on routine and are comfortable being alone during the workday. I focus on consistency, calm care, and clear communication, and I follow feeding, walking, and medication instructions carefully. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and treat every home with respect. I work full-time during standard business hours and provide pet care before and after work, as well as overnight house sitting. I’m a great fit for pets that are comfortable being alone for 8–9 hours during weekdays. My mornings and evenings are dedicated to walks, feedings, playtime, and quality care, and I’m fully present in the home overnight. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and routine. I follow all care instructions closely, keep doors and gates secure, and maintain a calm environment. I respect your home as if it were my own, keep things tidy, and provide regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

About: Beyond being responsible for caring for my dogs at home most of my life, I also have extensive experience dog and cat sitting for others, and I even have experience caring for lizards and turtles!😁 I love animals of all kinds, and I will love yours, too. I enjoy being active with animals as well and will be able to do any necessary amount of activity with your pet. (Additional fun fact: my brother is a veterinary technician😎) I’m currently free to pet sit at essentially any time of day and any day of the week. My schedule is very flexible, and I am working part time from home. I will care for animals of any kind and size and will give them lots of love. I don’t mind following any instructions that you may have for taking care of your pet, no matter how detailed the care instructions may be.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs in my household my entire life and have always had a special place in my heart for animal care. Being so familiar with dogs, I am willing to adapt and learn how to take the best care for your animal. When I come to play, walk, and care for your dogs I will dedicate my time to loving them. Specifically growing up I’ve helped train two golden retrievers within my family. I’ve also dog sat for family friends and neighbors growing up and would love to help out any dog owners downtown that need an extra hand! I am currently living in Charleston as a full time CofC student and am available for drop ins and/or house sittings! I am pretty flexible and can take on last minute bookings. I’m currently a full time worker at a coffee shop, so my shifts are typically early morning to midday. I have the rest of my days free and would love to help out as much as I can! I walk daily and am very familiar with the neighborhood. I have a lot of flexible availability to go on long walks or multiple walks a day.

“sarah did such an amazing job with my two cats! i am always a little nervous leaving my cats with someone new but sarah was amazing and always kept me updated with lots of pictures! super great experience and fast communication!!”

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!

“Olivia has been great for drop in visits. Bogey was always well taken care of and got lots of exercise, play time, and treats. Would highly recommend for your pet sitting or drop in visits.”

“Katie took great care of our Luna while we were out of town. She was highly communicative, dependable, and trusting. We feel lucky to have found her!”

About: I’ve taking care of many animals growing up from my own dogs and cats to farm sitting my freshman year of college. I’ve grown up with animals in the house so I learned the responsibilities of taking care of animals fast. I also pet sit along with babysitting while in high school. My freshman year of college I farm sat for a family close to my campus with animals such as dogs, cats, pigs, chickens, geese, rabbits, and goats, so my experience with animals is quite broad. Along with that the past few months I’ve been fostering dogs. I’ve worked with dogs after surgery, energetic puppies and very anxious dogs. I currently work in downtown Charleston and on Mount Pleasant so I can typically be available for overnight stays and drop ins around breakfast, lunch and dinner. I enjoy walking frequently around the Charleston Battery when I can and would love to have a furry friend join me. If the dogs come with me, I live in an apartment but enjoy going on walks around the city and near the parks and waterfronts. If I was to take care of the animal in your home I am up for a long walk and do what is needed to make your animal and you comfortable.

“Taylor was incredibly communicative and timely! You can tell she’s dedicated to giving reliable care. Foster and I were so appreciative for all the love she had to give while we were away!!”
