House Sitting Dorchester

“Absolutely amazing care and such a sweet person. Carla came over before our doggy staycation to meet Blaze and Luna and they were immediately in love with her. We got daily update photos and they seemed to be living it up! Thank you so much Carla!”

“Sara was awesome with my kitty Wilson! She sent me lots of pictures and updates throughout her stay. I could tell he was getting so much love! Our apartment was clean upon our arrival home and Wilson was one happy camper. I highly recommend Sara!”

Tanner W.

“Reagan was great! She sent plenty of photos and proivided updates on how everyone was doing. Very respectful of the house. When we got back, the animals were happy to see us, but did not act like they had been ignored, which is the best compliment I can give.”

Doug W.

“Sara was very attentive and provided lots of daily updates along with photos. She followed instructions carefully and gave our Doodlebug lots of love and cuddle time . She’s a keeper”

“Jai was awesome! This was my wife’s and I first time leaving our dogs with someone other than family. We were super nervous. After checking out her profile we reached out and she replied swiftly. She immediately made us feel more comfortable about the situation so we booked her! We agreed on a meet and greet several days before, while at the meet and greet she asked great questions in order to help prepare for the job. We agreed on her house sitting over night through the weekend and she took care of the dogs and house perfectly. She sent so many pictures while we were gone, and I could just see it in my dog’s eyes, they completely trusted her and I could see how happy they were! I would highly recommend you reach out to her. We will be booking with her in the future for sure. Thanks again Jai!”

“Kenzie is awesome! We have an older dog on multiple medications and she managed her perfectly. She is kind, loves dogs and communicated well with us while we were away. We felt super comfortable leaving our girl with Kenzie.”

Tamara B.

“Elise was absolutely fantastic! She cared for my two mini dachshunds, Oscar and George, along with my boyfriend’s chocolate lab, Claire — definitely a full house, but she handled it with ease. She kept me updated throughout the stay, which gave me peace of mind knowing they were in great hands. When we came home, everyone looked happy, healthy, and well-loved. I couldn’t have asked for better care and would highly recommend her to anyone!”

Josephine M.

“Sabrina was wonderful and the dogs loved her! She picked up our mail and pulled the trash can inside. We're very picky who watches are pups and we will definitely ask Sabrina back.”

David M.

“Amber was so fantastic. She was able to help with a last minute booking and was so communicative the whole time. I got so many updates and photos without even having to ask and came home to happy pets and a super clean home. It can always be scary having someone stay at your place but Amber was perfect and I would have her back in a heartbeat!”

Taryn S.

“Emma was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of both of my dogs while Lorena and I were away for a few days, and we couldn’t have felt more at ease. She was attentive, responsible, and clearly loves what she does. We got regular updates, and it was so reassuring to see how happy and comfortable our dogs were with her. I would 100% recommend Emma to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

About: Hi, I’m Sandi! As a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet owner, I understand how stressful it can be to leave your home and beloved pets in someone else’s care. My goal is simple: to give you complete peace of mind while you’re away. I’ve spent years rehabilitating and helping stray animals of many different species, along with caring for my own pets, including senior cats with strict medication schedules. Because of that experience, I understand that every pet has unique needs, personalities, and routines. Whether your pet requires medications, extra patience, playtime, special feeding instructions, or simply a familiar routine, I take those responsibilities seriously. When caring for your home, I treat it with the same respect and attention to detail that I would expect for my own. I can provide pet feeding, medication administration, litter box maintenance, mail and package collection, plant care, trash and recycling management, home check-ins, and regular updates (with pictures included) so you always know your pets and property are doing well. You’ll be happy to know that I’m often praised for my problem-solving abilities and excellent communication. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and genuinely take pride in creating a safe, comfortable environment for both pets and homeowners. I know that trust is everything in this line of work, and I work hard to earn it. If you’re looking for someone who will care for your pets with kindness and your home with respect, I’d love to connect and see how I can help make your life easier! Thanks for reading. Chat soon :) Animal care has been part of my everyday life for years. My flexible schedule allows me to be available during times when many sitters are not, including daytime hours, extended visits, and last-minute care needs when availability permits. Because I spend much of my time working from home and managing my own schedule, I can provide a higher level of attentiveness, communication, and consistency than someone limited to evenings and weekends. This flexibility is especially beneficial for senior pets, pets requiring medication, or animals that thrive with extra companionship and routine. Providing dependable, compassionate care isn’t something I squeeze into my schedule. It’s something I intentionally make time for every day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I strive to keep their routine as consistent as possible. Pets are often most comfortable in familiar surroundings, so I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise and enrichment preferences, and any household guidelines provided by the owner. I pay close attention to behavior, appetite, water intake, litter box habits, and overall well-being so that I can quickly recognize any changes that may need attention. For cats especially, I understand how important routine and a low-stress environment can be. I maintain a clean and secure environment by keeping food and water areas tidy, cleaning litter boxes regularly, ensuring doors and windows remain secure, and removing any obvious hazards. I also treat every home with the utmost respect and can assist with mail collection, plant care, trash and recycling management, and general home check-ins. Communication is a top priority. I provide regular updates and photos so owners can relax knowing their pets are safe, comfortable, and receiving attentive care while they’re away. I never view pet sitting as simply feeding and leaving.. I spend quality time interacting with each pet so they receive companionship, enrichment, and attention in addition to their basic care needs.

“Thanks to Fabian’s for taking good care of our senior dog.”

“Rowan is punctual, experienced and caring. I have 2 dogs and she cared for them for several days. She was attentative to my detailed requests and the house was clean, when I returned. My one pup, is not a fan of thunder, and Rowan used musical therapy to help soothe her anxiety. I would definitely hire her again.”

About: Decades of experience caring for dogs, horses, and a variety of animals. Trusted, reliable, and committed to providing safe, loving, one-on-one care tailored to each pet. Because every pet’s needs are different, I work closely with each client to create a care schedule that fits both your pet’s routine and my work schedule. Advance booking is recommended, especially during Charleston’s busy tourist seasons. I love leaving things exactly as I found them—except your pets. They’ll receive extra love, attention, playtime, companionship, and compassionate care while you’re away, giving you peace of mind when you return home.

“Zachary was great! Gave awesome updates and took great care of my pup. Would book again!”

Kelsey P.

“Isabella was great with the dogs and was in constant communication with us and sending updates and pictures. We will definitely be hiring her again when we need coverage. Highly recommend her!”

About: I’ve spent my whole life caring for animals, and nothing makes me happier! I work with horses professionally, and have also raised, fostered, and trained puppies and kittens. We love big dogs, small dogs, many dogs, any dog! I’ve taken dogs on roadtrips across the country, on horseback rides, on boats and kayaks, and countless adventures! My partner and I suddenly find ourselves without a dog of our own, so we would love to welcome yours into our home. We have a safe, comfortable, child-free, single story house with a doggie door onto a screened in porch and a fenced in yard. We live on a cul-de-sac with awesome neighbors and several wonderful pups, so if your dog is social they can make many friends! And if they’re not, our backyard is fenced and private. We’re more than happy to have them on our couches and beds (as long as that’s allowed at home) and we also have a crate if that’s where they feel safe! We are comfortable with puppies, senior dogs, or anything in between, and I have basic veterinary skills that allow me to administer oral medications as well as intramuscular and subcutaneous injections as needed. My partner works from home, and I am currently between seasonal jobs, so our lives are well suited to revolve around pets! We have a doggie door that leads to our fenced in yard, so dogs can take themselves out as they like, and cats can access the screened in porch. I also love taking walks through our neighborhood, which has safe streets as well as wooded trails and access to several creeks if anyone wants to swim! The cul-de-sac is also perfect for throwing a ball or frisbee, if your dog is into that kind of thing. We spend most evenings at home snuggled up on the couch, which has plenty of room for four legged guests (: Our home is safe and child-free, and (unfortunately) does not currently have any resident pets. We live on a cul-de-sac set far back in our neighborhood and have access to several wooded trails and marsh creeks. We have a dog door that leads to a screened in porch and a fenced in yard, which we have trained dozens of dogs to use over the years. I love taking walks, playing, and curling up on the floor or sofa for snuggles. I am also well trained in the art of giving mindless and continuous scratches. I’ve worked with many types of animals with all kinds of preferences, and I’m always happy to meet them where they’re at!

“Athena was absolutely amazing! I will definitely use her services again. While on vacation, I didn’t have to worry about my dog, knowing he was being loved and cared for!”

About: I've been actively caring for animals for more than 14 years :). Growing up, I regularly pet-sat for family friends, and my family often took in stray cats and litters of kittens, giving me hands-on experience with pets of all ages and personalities. Today, I have three cats of my own and continue to pet sit for friends and family. I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. Whether your pet needs playtime, companionship, a consistent routine, or extra patience and attention, I'm committed to providing loving and reliable care while you're away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I have a full-time job with a very flexible hybrid schedule. On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, I can work from anywhere, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide care, check-ins, walks, or companionship throughout the day. I'm also fully available on weekends. At home, I care for my three cats with my partner, which allows me the flexibility to accommodate pet sitting while ensuring every pet gets the attention and care they deserve. I enjoy spending time with animals and am committed to keeping them happy, comfortable, and on their normal routine while you're away. I provide care that is tailored to each pet’s needs and routine, whether in my home or in a client’s home. In my client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their normal schedule as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, playtime, litter box care, and any specific instructions provided. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, affection, and companionship while their owners are away, along with regular updates for peace of mind. In my own home, pets are cared for in a calm and safe environment. I ensure they are supervised, given a consistent routine, and treated like part of the family. I currently have three cats of my own, so I understand how important it is to create a clean, low-stress space where animals feel secure and cared for.

“Renne and Donovan were responsive and prompt. They provided pictures and updates based on our preferences. We came home to happy cats, without any of the anxiety we usually notice after trips. I’ve already booked with them again and would happily recommend them.”
