About: I have been taking care of family dogs and my neighbors dogs since I was 10. I also raised my puppy since she was 4 weeks old. I am currently not working so I have open availability preferably mornings and afternoons. I am willing to work around your schedule as well if needed. I have a big yard with a 6foot tall fence, so they have freedom in the backyard to play and run. I also am cautious with the animals when they are outside.
About: Hi! I am a student and football player at Furman University. I’m a lifelong dog lover who grew up around dogs of all sizes and personalities. Caring for dogs has always been a natural part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with them, whether that’s going on walks, playing, or just giving them attention and comfort. I’m reliable, patient, and committed to making sure every dog feels safe, happy, and loved while their owner is away. I’m currently home for the month of May from college. I love being active and working out is a huge part of my daily life. Throughout the month I will sporadically be doing some shadowing in the Wealth Management space. My schedule is basically wide open and I plan to fill a lot of that time by caring for pets. I’m happy to walk your dog for as long as needed, and I also enjoy doing drop-in visits. I take pride in making sure your pet is safe, comfortable, and in good hands.
“Clarissa has been a great help in caring for our 2 dogs. She is very responsible and comes on time and makes sure they get outside when we have a long day at work. Very happy with her care of our dogs.”
“Katherine did an awesome job caring for my 2 fur babies! They trusted her enough to give cuddles and pose for pictures instead of hide 💜! I will definitely recommend her to others and use her again.”
“Laura was able to fill in last minute for my regular sitter and was great! My kitties were eager to see her each day and she was affordable and reliable!!”
“Our cat is getting old and we had to leave for a few days, even though she is not in good health. April took such good extra care and made sure we knew how she was doing. She always goes the extra mile!”
“We just started working with Jamie and will definitely use her services again. We had to leave town unexpectedly for a family member in hospice. She eased our minds during a very difficult time. She was very reliable, our kitties loved her and she has a great personality and knows customer service. So thankful to have found her.”
“Regina was an absolute gem while we were on vacation! She showed up promptly every day, took excellent care of our cats, and went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and comfortable. We loved getting daily videos and photos of her being sweet with them—it was clear they were in great hands. As a final touch, she even left us homemade baked bread on her last day, which was such a thoughtful surprise. Highly recommend Regina if you’re looking for someone who’s both reliable and kindhearted.”
About: I've grown up with dogs from great pyrenees to baby chiweenies, and open to all kinds of dogs. I've helped with walk, cleaning after and medicating pups! I'm currently looking for employment and an active student, though I don't know scheduling yet-- I'm open any mornings / noons/ evening Monday through Friday besides Wednesday at 2pm to 3pm. I have an fenced in yard, and I feed both of my cats and scoop when needed. Clean after my dogs and walk them too. I'm able to give medications to dogs and depending on the medications for the cats, I'm able to do that too!

“Jane was amazing! She really went above and beyond with the puppies. She was so reliable, very responsible and made me feel so safe to be able to vacation knowing are dogs were well taken care of care of! We will be using her again soon and would recommend her to anyone! Trustworthy too….Thank you again Jane. You are a blessing!”
“Cathie was great with our Snooki girl! She was very attentive and accommodating of Snooki’s needs. We felt very comfortable on vacation knowing that our cat was in great hands!”
About: I am a 19-year-old college student who has had dogs my entire life and truly enjoys caring for animals. In addition to caring for my own family dogs, I have regularly pet sat for friends, family, and neighbors, watching several dogs each year since high school. I have experience with dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities and understand the importance of maintaining their routines, providing plenty of attention, and making them feel comfortable while their owners are away. I am dependable, responsible, and will treat your pet like one of my own. I am also happy to provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. As a college student, I maintain a flexible schedule and carefully plan my commitments to ensure pets receive the attention and care they deserve. I am available throughout the week, including many full days, and on workdays I am only scheduled in either the morning or evening, allowing me plenty of time for walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I prioritize keeping pets on their normal routines and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. Safety and trust are extremely important to me. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully, maintain a clean environment, and ensure pets have constant access to fresh water, exercise, and attention. I take the time to learn each pet’s unique personality and needs and will provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are in good hands.
“Joanna was great with our 2 cats. She took good care of them, was very friendly with them, and informed us how they were doing each day. We will definitely ask her back.”
About: Starting when I was in 5th grade I put up Dog walking signs around my neighborhood and surrounding neighborhood to work with dogs. Since then i’ve dog and cat sit for multiple neighbors over the years. I was relied on for things like feeding, playing and walking pets. I am currently holding a job which is pretty much from 2:00 until 6:00 every Monday-Friday, however this is only until June 9th 2026. I also have one class in the morning from about 8:30 until 10:30 also ending on June 2nd. So i have a lot of time throughout the day and night and especially on weekends to tend to your pets. And during the summer my schedule is open to have even more time to work! I tend to the pets with care and caution that i approach them in a correct way so the pets feel safe and taken care of.
Hembstead pet parents share their Rover experiences
Mia was the absolute best! I am always so nervous leaving my cat and hoping that the sitter will be warm and loving and she was this and so much more! He was in such a good mood when I returned home. She took lots of pictures and gave great updates. Would absolutely recommend and would 100 percent ask her to watch him again. Thank you Mia!
Jenni took care of our two dogs and cat over the Memorial Day weekend. They had never been left alone that long and Jenni quickly put us at ease with a visit beforehand. She clearly enjoyed visiting the pups and they clearly looked forward to her visits. We could not be happier.
I really love how Yair took to Rahma…she knew how to respond to Yair actions especially how this was his first experience to have someone else to care for him other than family. I really felt comfortable with her taking care of Yair. She asked me questions about Yair care that i didn’t even think to ask. She allow me to not worry about Yair care while I’m on my trip. She followed instructions to the point. I will definitely uses her service again and referred her to others.
Clarissa was absolutely fantastic! She took the time to get to know our pups, and they loved her right away. She was very attentive to the dogs while we were away, and we knew they were being cared for as if they were her own. Being away is never easy when we have to leave our pups behind, but Clarissa made us feel at ease and we will be using her in the future as she has built a relationship with both of our pups. Thanks Clarissa!
Jessica was great to work with and took excellent care of our dog Gus. Communication was great and she went above and beyond what we needed to keep Gus safe and happy. Plus, lots of pics and updates after every visit. She’s an absolute pro and we’d definitely work with her again.
Jamie was wonderful with my little guy—attentive, caring, and clearly invested in his happiness. While I was out of town, she took excellent care of him and kept me smiling with daily photos of him being his sweet self. It was comforting to know he was in such capable hands. Highly recommend!
Kelly did an amazing job with drop-in visits for our dog while we were gone for a week. We could tell our dog was relaxed and having a great experience. The pictures and videos were great to view. Her communication was excellent. We will definitely be using Kelly again next time we are out of town and need a dog sitter.
Ella was so great with our cat! He can be shy and a little timid and warmed up to her immediately. Communication was awesome and we loved getting all of the cute pictures every day. Having Ella checking in while we were away gave us such peace of mind. We’d recommend her to anyone and will definitely be using her regularly!
