Dog Walkers in Congaree, SC

“I am thrilled to leave a glowing review for Sean. From the moment I reached out to him, his professionalism and passion for animals were evident. First and foremost, Sean’s communication is top-notch. He promptly responded to my initial inquiry and was very accommodating in scheduling a meet and greet. During our meeting, he took the time to get to know my dog and asked detailed questions about his needs, preferences, and any special instructions. His attentiveness and genuine interest in my dog's well-being immediately put me at ease. During walks, Sean consistently goes above and beyond. He always arrives on time. He takes my dog on long, enjoyable walks, ensuring he gets plenty of exercise and fresh air. Additionally, Sean provides regular updates and photos, which I greatly appreciated. It was reassuring to see my dog happy and content during his walks. His attention to detail and willingness to go the extra mile truly impresses me! I cannot recommend Sean enough! His passion for animals, exceptional care, and outstanding communication make him the perfect choice for anyone in need of a reliable and trustworthy dog walker. I am grateful to have found such a dedicated individual and will continue to use his services again in the future.”

“Martina has been extremely reliable and patient. She’s always communicative during the walks and keeps me updated, which I really appreciate. Being in the Army with unpredictable hours is tough, but she truly puts my mind at ease knowing my baby is getting the care and attention he needs when I can’t be there. I’m so thankful for her!”

“Wonderful experience! Rebecca was a pleasure to deal with and Vicki was healthy and happy after her daily walks! Highly recommend!”

About: My name is Briyah. I grew up in New York all my life and also went to school there. I’m a Captain in the Army and I am now stationed Fort Jackson, SC. I’m 29 years old and been a pet owner for 9 years of a miniature Doberman Pincha named Snoopy. Now I own a 5 year old Labrador Retriever mix named Bane (boy). I also have experience with Rottweilers and cats. I pretty much love all pets. They warm my heart. I joined Rover to be around more animals and to earn extra income. I promise to treat your pet like my own. I ensure that they will get the same amount of love from me that you give them. I am active duty Army, so I work full time Monday through Friday. I am available after 5pm weekdays and all day Saturday and Sunday. Overnight stay any day. I live alone in an apartment complex. No one will have access to my place besides me. So your fur baby is in good hands. I work Monday through Friday from 9-4pm and I'm off on the weekends. I have a ring camera where I can monitor your fur baby while at work. I can easily crate your dog if need be, but don't make a habit out of it. If they are trained, I allow them on all furniture.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong commitment to animals through caring for strays, fostering, and rescuing those in need. I have hands-on experience with pets of all kinds and treat each one with the same love and attention as my own. My passion for animals guides everything I do, creating a safe and caring environment they can feel comfortable in. Pet care is a meaningful part of my daily routine, starting with feeding and checking on local strays each morning and evening to ensure they’re safe and healthy. I make time every day to provide food, water, and any needed care, like basic grooming or medical attention. I also stay connected with my pets back home through regular check-ins with family and help coordinate their care, making sure they’re well-fed, loved, and looked after even when I’m away. Dogs: Ensure dogs have regular access to food, clean water, and daily exercise suited to their breed and energy level. Provide consistent routines, positive reinforcement, and mental stimulation through play and training. Monitor their health and behavior, and keep their living area safe and clean. Cats: Maintain a clean litter box, fresh water, and appropriate food tailored to their dietary needs. Offer enrichment with toys, scratching posts, and quiet spaces for rest. Pay attention to their behavior and grooming habits to detect any health concerns early.

About: I grew up with dogs for all of my life and am a big fan of animals. I have experience watching both dogs and cats from spans of one day to over a week. I appreciate the happiness animals bring to our lives! I live in the Forest Acres area and have wide availability due to a flexible work schedule. I am available for drop ins and walks on a daily basis. I am respectful of instructions and rules and am thorough. Animals deserve care, support, and love at all times, and I can provide that structure for you when life gets busy. They are members of the family too! :) I have wide availability for any needed visits and services. My weekly schedule is steady without many variables. Pet care is a priority for me. Constantly ensuring they are comfortable, hydrated, fed, and safe. For walks, maintaining awareness of the weather. Maintaining interaction throughout the day to prevent any loneliness.

About: I love all pets of all verities! I have two dogs and two cats of my own that I love immeasurably. Whether your pet is young and spritely or older and laid back, I hope I bring you the best care for your loved one. I’m an Air Force veteran currently going to USC. I have a very flexible schedule and can assist you and your pet with anything you require to help make your life easy! I have a fenced yard and two very kind loving dogs that love meeting new friends. I have plenty experience in crate training and working with shy animals who just need one on one attention

“Daquan was very kind and patient when we took a minute to get our dogs’ harnesses on (they get very excited for their walks lol). And they seemed to really enjoy their walk with him!”

About: Hi! I am new to SC, recently moved from FL, and new to Rover. However, I am not new to caring for domestic animals! I have been taking care of dogs since I was 12. I have an accumulated 10 years of experience with dogs, cats, and birds. The animals I have been able to care for have been my own, family's and friend's. I am an ex-military spouse. I've done day care, house sitting, boarding, and drop-in visits for people with high security profiles. I have experience with puppies, senior or ill animals, shelter history animals, and difficult intelligent stubborn and power, and herding breeds. I use positive rewarding with the animals and I believe this paired with other training methodologies work best for your pets life-long learning (an animal never stops training). I also use pet corrector aerosol for breaking up or stopping any unwanted behavior that otherwise would injure me to do by force or if the breed is much larger than me and leash pulls or lunges a lot (I weigh 100lbs and I am 4'11"! I need all the non-forceful and safest enhancements I can get). It works really well and I recommend to all dog owners that have a hard time stopping behavior without e-collars, chokers, etc. Dakota, my dog has never had an e-collar and she behaves really well and is obedient thanks to its help and to additional amateur training I did with her by myself. I clean/disinfect my home every day in the mornings and at night, between visits, and at your home services so that areas where the animals are at are hygienic. I have experience making homemade meals for dogs. I have experience with mitigating and adjusting for allergies. I can identify behavioral issues like reactivity, anxiety, high prey drive, and boredom in a dog in order to mitigate it and correct it if necessary. I want their success and their ease while they are in my care. I try to make most walks structured walks so that way your furry friend has some stimulation even on short walks. I clean up any Oopsies the doggy may have done inside of the home. Prices may vary. I do walks 4 times in the day when at my home and 2 while I am away at work and depending on the weather. I give baths as long as the dog is safe and comfortable and if necessary. Prices vary. I am a professional in the food and beverage industry and my schedule varies throughout the week. Please send me a direct message to discuss and verify my availability of the dates and times for the care of your loved animal friend. Care in my home: I do not have a fence which I prefer because it gives a lot of free roaming space for my dog and other dogs. I always make sure to practice meticulous leash training and exploring with the dogs. Sometimes it is even better that way to keep their attention engaged and structure their walks so that they are well stimulated after their walks and have little energy for escape stunts! 15-20 minutes of sniffari's is equivalent to 1 hour of physical exertion for these common domestic furry friends. Care in your home: There is nothing they like more than classical conditioning reinforcement, if necessary. This means I try to do some training tricks which keep them engaged and stimulated. I make sure to address any specific instructions from you and ask questions. If I see the animal tends to have a bad habit at something specific I will check with you to see if they would be okay with my mitigation of the situation: i.e.) if a puppy likes to chew at chords I would ask you if you are okay with me putting the chords in unreachable places around the home or unplugging them. Of course, knowing there is a possibility that I may have to keep up with that task throughout the service. I make sure to keep doors locked of any rooms that the animals are not allowed in. I also reset everything in your home as you left it, unless otherwise requested differently.

About: I have taken care of high energy and working dogs for years. I grew up with hunting dogs and have a working dog myself. Caring for animals in my spare time is something I enjoy and cannot get enough of! I work full time, however mornings, lunch breaks, and nights are devoted to my animals and my weekends are devoted to exploring new places with my favorite companion. I have a 3 year old Belgian Malinois who will keep your pet company and have ample space and a wonderful park to make sure your pet gets their needed exercise.

About: I've been caring for animals since I was a kid, starting with my own family's pets! Over the years, I’ve looked after everything from cats and dogs to goats, chickens, and even horses. I currently have two cats of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets like family. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playing, or just keeping your animals company, I bring patience, responsibility, and genuine love to every pet I look after. I'm available for pet sitting any time during the week — including weekends — and always happy to work around your schedule! I am able to take care of your pets in the morning and evening! I have a fenced yard and large home, I am able to crate dogs if needed. I am much more interested in doing home visits than have them come to me.

“Great Kong tip & wonderful at communication. Truly look forward to hiring Rachel again.”

About: Hey y’all! My name is Kayla. I have a beagle and three cats. I am 31 years old and have had pets since I was a kid. I grew up with dogs and I still dog sit for my family. I have experience walking larger dogs as well. My uncle has a Doberman and an Akita. I love animals and am looking to earn extra money to pay off my college loans faster. I would love to help out with your furry friends. I am in sales and working 100% remote. I enjoy taking my dog on runs so I can do that for anyone I dogsit for too. Your pets will be treated like they are my own. I am working from home indefinitely so I can do multiple drop in visits, multiple walks, and give a lot of attention to your pet! I have a dog myself and a cat with a neurological condition. She is completely healthy but requires some extra care. I love animals and wanted to be a veterinarian growing up. I take my dog on multiple walks, and have play time throughout the day with my dog and cat. They’re allowed on the furniture and in my bed. I will treat your pet the same! Plus I have quite a bit of room in my condo so your fur baby will not be cooped up.

“Thomas did great with my little puppy obi, wouldn’t recommend him enough to other puppy / dog owners for your pets thanks Thomas!”

About: I have been an animal owner most of my life. I am calm and gentle with a splash of fun. Experienced with all life stages, special needs and meds administration. I am flexible to accommodate a variety of needs. I can provide drop-ins before 10 pm or house sitting, if you prefer. Compassionate and reliable, you can count on me.

About: I absolutely love all animals and will love yours as my own. I have vast experience with all sorts of different animals and love meeting new animals constantly! I've owned horses, dogs, cats, lizards, bunnies, guinea pigs, hamsters, ect! My schedule changes a lot honestly with me balancing school and my teams schedule but I am trying to save up money to put towards a down-payment on a house so I'm willing to work with my schedule where I can. At clients home I am very respectful of clients space and animals space. I will socialize with the animal and make sure it gets enough interaction in during the visit. I will leave the space better then I found it and make sure it stays clean.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was little, growing up my grandma had a lot of dogs which started my love for them. I have taken care of many stray dogs around my area, i’ve also dog sitted for many local people in my hometown neighborhood. I’ve handled cats, rabbits, horses, and even turtles lol. Small or big , Reptile or mammal I love them all unconditionally :). I currently just got out of the military, so my schedule is always free. I’m available monday-friday maybe even during the weekend. I don’t really take too many trips so I could be available during holidays as well. I have a fenced in backyard where your fur baby is free to play whenever. I have 3 fur babies of my own, very friendly to other animals and they love to play. I also interact with them outside daily so if your fur baby loves to play he or she will have lots of company to do so.

About: My family and I are trained as a foster parent through Pawmetto lifeline but I am currently taking a small break or else I will end up with 20 dogs! I have been around animals my whole life and feel that a home is not complete without them. I am very comfortable with adjusting my life to their routines and active training. I DO REQUIRE PROOF OF FLEA, TICK, & HEARTWORM MEDICATION *Note: I will accept exclusive boarding (just your dog) if booked far enough in advance for an additional rate. Your pet would do perfect with me! I am a full-time online students and mama. This leaves me with open available and perfect for the pets who struggle with separation anxiety. Our days consist of some classes then walks when the weather is nice, zoomies in our large shaded backyard, car rides, and of course some much-needed nap time! I have a house where dogs ARE allowed on the couch and bed, a big fenced yard, and a warm cement patio for basking in the sun. Plus various shaded areas, on hot days I do limit out time side to prevent over heating. I have various rooms in my house to section off if the fur-baby needs some "me time". I am trained in the unlikely event of a dog fight to safely separate the dogs.

Additionally, I make time for grooming, playtime, and any necessary medical care or medications.
