“Orlena. Was amazing with our two year old mini poodle. She kept plenty of videos and pictures coming. She is such a sweetheart. We already spoke with her in regards to another booking.”

About: I have grown up and taken care of dogs all my life! I have always lived with multiple dogs, and have even rescued 2! I love big and small dogs, I have experience with training, walking big dogs (pitbulls, labs, etc.), administering insulin, and dealing with dogs with epilepsy! One of my pups had diabetes, dementia, epilepsy, and anxiety, so I am well prepared for anything of that nature! I often pet sit for neighbors and friends for dogs of all different breeds! I’ve taken care of puppies, to toddlers, to senior dogs! I’m currently a student at USC, and take all my classes in the morning, so I basically have a free schedule after 1pm almost every day of the week! Weekends are more convenient for boarding, but I would still be able to make boarding during the week work as well! I also have gaps in my schedule, so during the week I am able to stop by throughout the morning to take care of your pups! I currently live in an apartment complex, so I do not have a yard for any pups, but I am able to take them outside on walks! We are allowed to have animals here so if need be I could have a dog stay with me, however I do not have any proper supplies for them in my apartment, and would need to be provided with such.

“I really do appreciate Nick! He always comes through when it comes to Mateo. I recently had surgery and had to come back down to Columbia, and he was able to take Mateo for me so I could have some time to adjust to my recovery. I’m forever grateful for him! He communicates so well, sends pictures, keeps you updated, and always lets you know what’s going on. He’s truly everything you could want in someone taking care of your dog, and I always feel comfortable knowing Mateo is with him.”

“Latasha is absolutely amazing with Murph! He is a very timid dog and she makes him feel right at home! I also really love that she sends me updates on him twice a day with adorable pictures of him! I'm so happy that I found her to take care of murph! I'd definitely recommend her for anybody that needs a doggie daycare/ boarding service! :) :)”

“Brandon was very welcoming and accommodating to my boys! I know my dogs are very high energy and can be a handful so I’m always nervous about leaving them but Brandon was very professional and made me feel welcome.”

“Katelyn was fantastic with my dog. She sent me daily photos and updates about Reo, which really put my mind at ease. I’ll absolutely book with her again.”

About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life, I’ve grown up with just about every type of animal from small to large, I’ve worked at dog rehabilitation centers, I’ve been a dog groomer for over 12 years (still grooming out of my home) I’ve worked as a vet tech in multiple veterinary clinics as well. I’m a professional groomer that works from home, my kiddos are 12, 8 and 2 with my oldest two in school during the day, so my daily routine is usually about the same lol I groom just about every day, and also occasionally board for my long term grooming clients as well! With me working from home I would absolutely prefer your pet to be dropped off and picked up, your pet will have the opportunity to play/hang out with my personal dog, go outside plenty of times and also have that human interaction as well rather then being in a kennel/run for hours on end before getting let out to go potty.

“Beatriz was so great with Zeus and Zoey. We wanted someone that would give them their undivided attention and she did just that. She also had a huge yard and patio area which is great for them to run around in. She sent us lots of pics and updates which I also appreciated. I’d definitely recommend trusting her with your pups and I would definitely use her again next time I go out of town.”

“Brittany was a great sitter for my dogs, Bella and Roxy. They made themselves at home before we even got out of the driveway and Brittany sent updates and photos during their stay. We ended up coming back earlier than expected and Brittany made sure to adjust the pricing for us. I felt 100% comfortable leaving my fur babies with Brittany and would highly recommend her to anyone!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats for years through dog-sitting for families, daily walks, and fostering cats. As a current cat owner and crested gecko owner, I’m experienced with a variety of pets and their unique needs. I provide dependable, loving care and treat every pet like family. 🐾❤️ As a college student, I do have classes during the weekdays, but my schedule is still very flexible! I am available for drop-in visits in the mornings, afternoons, and evenings, depending on my class schedule. I’m happy to work with you to find times that best fit your pet’s needs! I can also accommodate last-minute bookings when my schedule allows. Please note that I will be away during Thanksgiving break, winter break, and spring break. Outside of those dates, I look forward to providing your pets with the best care possible! Safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I ensure pets are always supervised, secure on walks, and have plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. In a client’s home, I treat both the pet and the space with respect, maintaining a clean, calm, and stress-free environment while they’re away.

“Tony has watched my dog, Saint, twice now, and I couldn’t be happier with the care he’s provided. I’m new to using Rover and I’m extremely thankful that I found Tony. So much so that I refuse to look for any other sitter. He’s been pleasant to work with, trustworthy, and always makes me feel confident that Saint is in great hands. One thing I really appreciate is the updates. Every picture Tony sends, Saint looks genuinely happy, relaxed, and comfortable, which gives me so much peace of mind while I’m away. It’s obvious that Saint enjoys spending time with him. I truly appreciate Tony’s flexibility as I venture out of town pretty often. Whether Saint is there with others or just as the only guest, he’s always well cared for and comes home happy. I highly recommend Tony to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”

“Zoie had a great doggie vacation with Hannah and her pups! Hannah communicates well and takes good care of her charge. We will definitely board Zoie with her again!”

“We had a great experience with Kari. She was very accommodating and had constant communication with us while we were away. Our dog seemed to have enjoyed his time with her, as well. Will definitely rebook Kari in the future!”

About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life, especially bulldogs and other large dog breeds, so I’m very comfortable handling dogs of different sizes and personalities. I also have experience caring for cats. In addition, I’ve watched neighbors’ small dogs while they were on vacation and have volunteered helping take care of dogs at Final Victory Animal Rescue. I’m active, dependable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that’s walking, playing, or making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. My schedule is widely open for the summer! There is no doubt I can fit your pet into my schedule whether that be on the weekends or throughout the week! I always prioritize making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their normal environment. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, and house rules to help keep pets stress-free. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and supervision while also keeping the home clean and secure. I’m attentive to pets’ behavior and safety on walks, around other animals, and in new environments. Having grown up around both large and small dogs, I’m comfortable handling different temperaments and energy levels. My goal is to make owners feel confident that their pets are being treated like family while they’re away

“Great communication. Sent photos. My boys are tired and happy. Will definitely use again!”

About: Hello:) I'm Bella, and I've been independently taking care of and looking after dogs since I was 10 years old! My mother has been in the rescue space for about 15 years, starting her own in 2019. I've had the opportunity to meet, foster, and transport hundreds of different dogs with all sorts of unique characteristics/behaviors. I have also done multiple overnight stays for families that have previously adopted dogs from the rescue and friends. All dog breeds are welcome here! I have watched dogs from chihuahuas to Chows to Airedale terriers. Additionally, from puppies to seniors, small to extra-large, I am comfortable with all dogs and can accommodate special needs. I'm no stranger to raw feeding, administering medications, light training, and grooming. I've always had a deep love and special interest in all aspects of owning dogs, so It's always been my dream to do this professionally. I am currently in school part-time and can be out doing that for about 2-6 hours on Mondays and Wednesdays. During this time, my mother works from home, takes care of the animals' needs, and lets them hang out with her while she works. The animals run the schedule in our home; there's never a time their needs aren't met for other plans. I am a night owl, but I am also up very early. So no matter the time of day, I can stay on schedule for walking, feeding, medication, or potty times. I'm experienced with leash pullers and escape artists, so I am always very cautious when it comes to walking or when leaving a dog alone. I have a wealth of knowledge about veterinary needs and am not afraid to act if it ever becomes necessary. I have a large fenced-in yard here at the house and plenty of space to roam with a leash outside of that. The permanent animals in my home are 4 friendly dogs (1 male Chow, 1 female Chow, 2 female small-medium mixed breeds) and 5 cats. Fosters are in and out often but do not disturb the function of the household. Separation is possible in the house with crates, corrals, or gated off rooms. Extra animal supplies are always available here from the rescues' overflow, so we are always prepared for anything. We keep a clean home, and I've been a part-time professional cleaner, so I will keep a tidy space if staying in your home as well. I'm not afraid of any messes; I have seen and cleaned it all! Communication is key, and I'm up for molding around your schedule if need be. My aim to treat your pups with the utmost respect and love they deserve, so you won't have any need to worry when you can't be with them!

“Valerie was amazing!! So patient and kind to my dog who came into her home and immediately marked his territory!! I felt horrible but she took it all in stride. bHe was very well taken care of in her care. I will definitely be using her again!!”

About: When your pet is with me, they immediately become apart of our family. Playtime is out of this world, Routines are followed and cuddles are a priority until you’re reunited with your fur baby. I’ve cared for dogs, my entire life so loving on them is second nature. **UNAVAILABLE 9/5-9/9** I work from home until 10 PM but work can follow me. Your pet’s care will include frequent visits up to 4 times a day including walks, playtime and feedings I have a fenced in back patio for your pup to soak up the sun. I also live in the first floor and have no other dogs or kiddos so hopefully your pup likes solitude as much as I do.

“Alyssa and her husband gave exceptional care for our Gracie Girl! (Even slept in their bed with them... Very sweet couple! We'll definitely call them on future trips to SC!”
