House Sitting in Columbia

“Kelsey did great with our energetic puppy. She was very diligent about listening to all the things we told her about our dog, environment and needs. I would highly recommend.”

Robin G.

“Orion & Alex did a wonderful job taking care of our two corgis. They sent photos with regular updates every day. They thoughtfully brought up any issues quickly. Our dogs seemed very relaxed around them both.”

Andrea W.

“Shannon always goes above and beyond with our pups. She keeps us updated with frequent photos and messages, and really goes the extra mile to make sure they are well taken care of. She stayed at our house for a week with them, and really put us at ease while we were away. We love (and the pups love!) having Shannon watch them!!!”

Lauren G.

“Lauren is a very sweet young lady. She was very good with our nine week old German Shepherd puppy Nala. I would definitely recommend her and I will be booking her again as long as she wants to deal with my crazy puppy. 🤣”

Jennifer W.

“Rebecca is absolutely amazing. This was the first time I left Woodie with a sitter besides my son. He was nervous at first, but she came over several times to make sure he was comfortable. She knew everything to do to make him comfortable. He did perfectly when we went out. I was not worried at all because I knew she had it handled. I of course will be using her anytime I want to go out.”

Michelle R.

“We were very happy with Palma and would not hesitate to use her services again. Our two German shepherds were calm and content after we returned a few nights later. She left the house atleast as clean as she found it (maybe cleaner).”

Peter S.

“Annie was so wonderful with Sunny -- giving lots of love and keeping us up-to-date with photos and messages. It was our first time away from Sunny and Annie made it easy. Thank you!!!”

Jeanne Z.

“Sophia was truly amazing. She communicated every step of the way and always reached out with any questions. I appreciated how consistently she kept me informed with updates and photos, and how she let me know when she arrived and left each day. She also gave me helpful summaries of their daily activities so I always knew how Kharma was doing. I came home to a neat and tidy house, the trash taken out, and a very happy dog. It was clear Kharma was well cared for. I’d absolutely trust her again.”

Nunu F.

“Jaclyn was great! She got along with our dogs like she knew them from day one of them joining our family. She went above and beyond to take care of them thank you so much to Rover and especially Jaclyn.”

About: Since I can remember I have always been around dogs and cats in my life, mostly rescues, who needed training and caring for. I currently pet sit for my family when they are away, and walk dogs for family friends. When I was a professional cleaner I encountered all breeds and ages of cats and dogs every single day so I am very comfortable around all types of pets. I especially love and have experience with pitty breeds as well as experience with some reactive cats and know what to do to gain their trust. When not taking care or animals, I am a freelance dancer and choreographer! I take dance class some evenings and may have a weekend show or rehearsals. Other than that, I am readily available especially during the morning, afternoons, and later in the evenings/overnight for your furry friends! Before we officially book, I will make sure we have a meet and greet so that your pet can get to know me as we talk about all your needs for my visit! Along with any of your pet's special needs, I will ask you to leave me with any emergency contact information just in case anything were to happen, as well as my personal contact info. I also will send you updates for your peace of mind as well as some adorable pictures of your pet(s)!

“Tiffany is wonderful. Very proactive, lots of communication, so attentive with our girls, and she is really fun to talk to. A great added bonus! We will definitely have her with us again.”

Charles S.

“Olena was amazing! Extremely friendly, well prepared, arrives on time, perfect communication, and really knows what she’s doing when it comes to taking care of animals!”

Liz D.

“Sarah and Jim came to our rescue when our previously booked sitter cancelled shortly before our scheduled trip. We are so grateful for their flexibility and the care that they gave to our two senior girls. We returned home to very happy and relaxed puppers! We highly recommend their services!!”

About: Reliable, caring, and attentive pet and house sitter who will treat your pets and home like my own! As the owner of an 8-year-old yellow lab, I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy and dependable caring for your pets while you’re away. I have experience watching friends’ and family members’ pets and homes, and my hybrid work schedule at Travelers allows me extra flexibility during the week for house sitting, companionship, walks, playtime, and consistent care throughout the day. I currently work full time at Travelers Insurance with a hybrid schedule that allows me to work remotely two days a week. I am in the office Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, but I am home the majority of weekends and available to stay full time while caring for your home and pets. As the owner of an 8-year-old yellow lab, I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy, attentive, and compassionate caring for your pets while you’re away. I have experience watching friends’ and family members’ pets and homes, and I always strive to make pets feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for. I’m also very active and would love to take your pets on walks, play with them, and give them as much attention and companionship as they need! Your pets’ safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I understand how important it is to trust someone with both your pets and your home, and I will always treat them with the same care and respect I would my own.

I’m very attentive, communicative, and happy to provide updates and photos for peace of mind. Whether it’s overnight house sitting, companionship during the day, or keeping active pets engaged with walks and playtime, I am committed to making sure your pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for at all times.

“Cierra was extremely awesome to our dogs and cat. The communication and meet and greet went seamless, and she spoiled them during her watch. She even stayed composed when my dogs acted up beyond what a dog sitter should have to deal with. I would 100% recommend her to watch your companions as well, and would reach out again if I needed a sitter.”

About: I am a trained and certified k9 trainer with experience in basic and advanced obedience, behavior modification, odor tracking and an affinity for stray dogs. I currently foster so the more dogs the merrier. Im in school but my schedule is flexible so I can work around most things as long as I'm informed at least 6 hours in advance. I have multiple sized indoor and outdoor kennels and playpens for your pup. My property is safe and enclosed. I am former military so I tend to stick to strict schedules and have no problem keeping your pup on one if that is what's needed. OR we can hang out on my couch and watch dog training videos...im good with either one. I do training, temperament tests and socialization mostly to make both our time together interesting. Also offer daily pics for your Instagram!

About: We got our first dog when I was four years old. Over the years we had many other dogs , both large and small. Most recently , I was the primary caregiver for our seventeen year old terrier mix. Pet sitting will help fill the void that she has left in my life. I am recently retired, so my schedule is flexible. I am available during the week, weekends, days and evenings. I have an active life style. I have a large yard for your dog to enjoy on a leash. I have one cat at home who is dog experienced. I am open to caring for a dog's in my home if they are cat friendly or in yours.

About: I have had many pets growing up. I currently have 3 cats and 2 dogs. I can board your pets or go to your home. I offer walking, playing, feeding, give medication, clean litter boxes. Thank you I work part time cleaning houses. I have a 13 year old daughter who is kind and sweet. She loves animals and loves to help me out. I don’t have a fenced in yard but I have a big yard. I have a lead I can put dogs on so they don’t take off or I can walk them

“Susan is amazing! She came to our house to meet the animals twice before her stay and a 3rd time before we left just to ensure the animals knew her. She is thorough and loving. She took care of our two house puppies, two cats, 3 goats and four chickens. She kept us updated with how the animals were doing and sent pictures. We have security cameras around the house and could see she spend ample time walking the dogs and letting them play. We are so thankful to have someone like Susan to help with the animals while we were gone. We don’t have family in CT, so she is the closest we have to to that! We appreciate you!”

About: my sister and i have been watching dogs for many years now and have experience with dogs of all ages, breeds, and sizes ranging from Pugs to Belgian Malinois. We do have experience and are comfortable around dogs with disabilities such as blind or deaf. neither one of us currently work full time and 3 people live in our home so it’s pretty unlikely your pet will be left alone long if at all. rest assured there are zero other unconfined animals roaming around our house! we do not have a fenced in yard but your pet will be taken on as many walks as needed.
