About: I have always had labs or retrievers in the house. I have trained my pets to always obey and greet people with kindness, yet still be loud with a bark when someone approaches the front door. Our dogs have always been great with kids and have never had problems with them running off. We take care of any medications, ear drops, eye drops, and of course proper diet, food, water and treats. We live on a golf course and enjoy taking our dog out for exercise. Throwing the ball or frisbee is her favorite. On sunny days we take her to the beach. We have SUV jeep to transport up to two large dogs to the beach, store or vet. We love dogs (able to handle large size dogs, puppies and older dog care)

About: I’ve had experience caring for dogs for as long as I can remember! I always had dogs growing up and have continued to have dogs (and other pets!) throughout my adulthood. I’ve also fostered and pet sit for many friends and family members. Any size dog is just fine, I’ve had experience with dogs from 3lbs Maltese to an 85lb German Shepherd! I am familiar with administering medications and caring for senior dogs. I treat every pet as if it was my own! I work from home with a fairly flexible schedule, so can be available for walks and potty breaks throughout the day. For boarding, I will be home during the weekday so your pup can keep me company! I currently do not have any other pets in my home, but may have a foster dog occasionally. I have a fenced in yard for your pup to run and play. I do also have a pool if they like to swim (I will supervise dogs outside at all times for safety). For in your home care, I will be respectful of your home, property, and privacy while giving your dog whatever care they need!

“Kaylin let our dog out for two weeks while our main person was out of town. She was great! Reliable, punctual and took great care of lady. We will be using her again forsure! She even gave lady a toy at the end that she loves. Book her, you will feel at peace knowing your dog is being taken great care of !!”


“Emily and my girls hit it off right away! I am looking forward to being able to plan more trips without having to worry about who’s taking care of the family.”


“Sara was available for us on short notice. She was super easy to deal with; very friendly; and our dog Sasha took to her instantly. Thank you for a great job!”



About: I provide overnight dog care in my home. I have been on Rover for about years. I have a 2 year old mixed breed dog named Boots. I adopted Boots about 1 year ago. Boots is sweet with all dogs and people. He could use some manners but we are working on it. I have had dogs my whole life and just love them immensely. I have cared for many elder dogs, dispense medicine and happy to provide xtra needed care as long they can do their business outside. Thats my only request. I only watch dogs that are good with all humans and dogs. I have a small fenced yard. My neighborhood is very dog friendly and lots of areas to walk dogs. If your dog has a special diet, no problem. I will care for no more than 2 doggie guests at a time as I have my own dog. I will make exceptions if it works well. About this sitter: Hi my name is Brenda. I love animals, but mostly dogs and puppies. I realize the cost and stress of boarding pets when on vacations or short weekend getaways, tournaments etc. I would love to help everyone I can with their doggie needs to reduce the cost and stress. I have always wanted to care for dogs and this Rover site made it possible:) I offer long term care and special rates for traveling professionals and frequent adventurers and will negotiate a fair rate for longtime care. We will treat your dog as our own and they will get lots of love and attention?? I work part time so I will have plenty of time to spend with your fur babies. They will definately get lots of love and attention during their stay. I will treat your dog as my own. They will receive love, attention while in my care. While I am out, the dogs will be seperated in the living space, not crated. I do crate my dog as he chew things sometimes.

“Isabella was great! We were away for two weeks over the holidays and Isabella handled our cats perfectly. She has a calming persona that will make your pets feel comfortable while you're away. I highly recommend her!”


About: I have always been a dog person. Growing up, we have always had a dog and now I have a fur baby of my own! I love spending time and playing with all types of dogs. I currently work a part time job, so spending time with your pet will be an ideal way to spend my free time! I love going on walks or just playing with dogs of all kinds. My dog is my entire world, so I understand how important it is to trust someone who takes care of your pet. I am loving and kind and I will treat your animal as my own.

About: I’ve taken care of many animals. I’ve sat with them as they gave birth and I’ve even held some as they ventured over the rainbow bridge. I work in a restaurant that has closed for the season so I have plenty of time for your precious baby. When the restaurant reopens, the hours run part time. I care for pets mainly in my home, but I do make exceptions. I understand that individual animals and their owners have individual needs. I can take same day calls as well.

About: I grew up on a farm taking care of all kinds of animals, dogs and cats especially. I truly love animals and want to make sure they feel as cared for as possible. I’ve pet sit for family, friends, and members of my community. I personally own 4 cats and a Doberman. I currently work as a singer/dancer at Legends in Concert here in Myrtle Beach. I have shows everyday except Sunday, I normally have to be at the theatre by 6:20 pm and I’m finished with the show by 10 pm. I can tend to your animals before and after the show depending on the services you require. And Sundays are full availability! I will happily care for your pet in your own home! I can follow whatever guidelines you have, whether it be outdoor or indoor care.

“Maura was absolutely amazing in an emergency ER situation! Stayed calm, attentive, and super patient! :)”


About: I am an avid animal lover looking to spend my days off exercising, playing and loving on your 4 legged baby! I have a black lab puppy that is full of energy so whatever the needs of your dog/cat are, I feel confident I can meet them! I have had a dog and cat my whole life. I am a nurse, working 3 12hr days/week and rover has been an absolute life saver. I look forward to making the same impact to those who need it! I am available 4 days a week as my schedule is different every week. I work 3 days a week so on my days off I have plenty of time to tend to your fur-babies! I can walk, feed, administer meds, play, crate, etc your pup/kitty safely. I have experience with high-energy pups and skiddish cats. Let me know what you need and I will do my best to make it happen!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. From small to big, puppy to senior, healthy to unhealthy. All dogs have a special place in my heart. I’ve even cared for dogs with missing limbs. My dog was my best friend and she just recently passed away. Getting a new dog is too heavy on my heart, taking care of others dogs makes me happy. Pet sitting is currently my only job. When I’m with a pet I’m usually always home all day so I have plenty of time to walk, play, feed, love and care for your best friend! I have a yard but it’s not fenced in. I have a gated porch if your pup likes to chill outside and they are fine to come in and out as they please. My neighbor has a playful dog whom I watch so if your pup wants a friend to play with I can always get them together!

“Laura is very easy to work with. She was very responsive to our short notice need. She has cared for our dogs in the past, and did a great job again today. Thank you very much, Laura!! We really appreciate it.”

Nicole V.
“Nicki is the best puppy sitter ever!! She is the only person (other than my parents) that I will let watch my dog. My dog is 3.5 lb Maltese (Nilla), with some special needs, including needing medications. Any time Nicki has watched her I have felt totally confident that my baby would be given plenty of attention and be well taken care of. Nicki also sends cute photos of Nilla while I’m gone, which is always appreciated. She recently moved to another state from me, but she’s so well liked by Nilla and myself, that I’m honestly looking at flying her back to watch Nilla so that I can go on vacation this fall.”

She treated my pup like part of the family—daily walks, playtime, cuddles, and regular updates with photos that gave me total peace of mind while I was away. It’s clear Sloan genuinely loves animals and goes above and beyond to make them feel safe, happy, and loved. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my dog. Highly recommend!”


Mary S.Star Sitter

Wendy R.
“Wendy has always been great with my dogs. They can be a bit anxious and guarded around people, but they both love Wendy. She has a calming effect on them - I literally call her my dog whisper! She has taken care of them for me on many occasions and I don’t think I trust anyone with my pups as much as I trust her.”
