“Deborah popped in for an hour visit with our dog corn at the last minute on a holiday weekend and we couldn’t be more happy with how accommodating she is. I would highly recommend her for any pet service!”


“Olivia is the best. She stopped by twice a day to feed and spend time with my cat. My cat absolutely loved her. Olivia went above and beyond by getting my mail and stopping by an extra time to change out a food bowl because my cat didn’t like that particular bowl. Cats…. 🙄 am I right? Thank you Olivia! I will definitely be contacting her in the future.”


“Brit was awesome! This was our first time using Rover/Brit, and she was wonderful with our dog, River. Very responsive, everyday we got reports and photos on how things were going, and Brit took River over to play with our son’s dog who she was also watching during this time. We so appreciate her help!”


“One of my dogs can he anxious around people but I'm the second day of dog sitting Iris sent me a picture of him being playful and happy. Clearly she made him at ease. I booked this somewhat last minute and I appreciate it is coming over to meet them and learn about our needs. Will add Iris to our list of trusted humans.”

About: ive had a couple of dog growing up in my childhood a sweet old black lab and a super crazy dingo.. in my free time after school and during summer i used to walk them, no amount of walking could satisfy my dingo.. id have her pull my bike to get all her energy out since we didnt have any closed in areas she could run off in.. ( i dont do this anymore! i realize its not very safe! she absolutely loved it for sure though) i love pups big and small old and energetic theyre all very unique and id love some new friends to get me out of the house. id ask you beforehand of course if youd be okay with them swimming, theres a pond i can bring them to after walking to cool off at. our backyard is fenced! i have two cats, so id like to know how your dog reacts around small creatures, if they cant be in contact i can always but them into a room while the dog is over. most likely theyd be outside! lots of shade and id keep em well hydrated and happy :3 i currently have been on a job hunt since what feels like forever, my schedule is very. very open.. since i dont have a car, drop off would be ideal, if your close enough to walk to i can do that too! weekends are the only time id be able to pick up your pooch my cats get their waters filled and cleaned almost daily, lots of love of course and are very spoiled. i dont have any dogs at the moment, so of course id love to chat about what youd expect and need for your lovely pup! im good with communication and friendly, special needs id be extra attentive to. im very good at remembering small things, though id still write em down incase!

“Julia stayed at our house with Lucy for 9 days. She was absolutely awesome! We felt at ease having Julia take care of Lucy, she sent super cute photo updates and let us know how Lucy was doing thru the week. When we got home Lucy didn’t even seem phased that we had been gone, which tells me she had a great time and great care!! I would give Julia 10 stars if it were an option!”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life so I’m very comfortable with them. I currently have two of my own. Friends and family have relied on me for walks, feeds, and house sitting. I’m currently working part time because I’m in nursing school so I’m available week nights after 2/3 pm and most weekends! Boarding and house sitting availability are weekends as well. I have a partially fenced in yard. One of my dogs requires a leash when going out but the other one stays within the fence so I’m able to accommodate either. My two dogs are very friendly and love company. One of my dogs is on medication so I’m comfortable if your dog has those needs.

Molly & Lee G.

“We decided to take a short last minute trip this summer but couldn't find any dog friendly hotels so we decided to board our fur baby. In the past we've had family and friends watch but we never felt completely comfortable. We found Molly and Lee close by and after talking with her felt very comfortable with her watching him. She kept us updated on his condition daily, and even sent us a short video via the Marco Polo app. He had fun outdoor time and a family friendly atmosphere. We have no reservations about using Molly's services in the future for all our doggy daycare needs.”

Shannon W.
“Shannon has babysat my two elderly chihuahuas multiple times. They are in constant need of attention and they can be quite a handful, but Shannon takes care of them happily and thinks they are always much more adorable then they actually are. She did a great job taking them for walks around my neighborhood and catering to their dietary needs, and also kept an eye on my chihuahua Lucy, as she often causes trouble. Shannon was so enthusiastic and sweet that I felt more than comfortable leaving my pups with her for days on end. I couldn't recommend her enough.”

“I have had Kimberly watching my 5 dogs when I leave for work for many months now and she has been nothing but fantastic. She is always been going above and beyond to make sure that not only my puppies are taken care of but getting the extra loving they are always in need of. I highly recommend this animal lover to any other person in need of their pets taken care of or walked.”


Stephanie T.
“As a pet mom that is highly overprotective of my two little fur babies, Merey and Noey, I highly recommend Stephanie Turner as a pet caregiver. Stephanie goes above and beyond what is asked of her each time I travel to South Carolina for a week out of the year. Receiving pictures throughout the week puts my mind at ease that my babies are happy and healthy. She is so accommodating and helpful. Stephanie has two fur babies of her own, Marley and Maddie, and they are the luckiest dogs in the world to have her as their fur mom!”
