“Jen was awesome!! She house sat for 5 days and followed the schedule I left for my two fur babies. Both dogs are large dogs and she walked them every day without hesitation! They were happy and very well taken care of. I was able to relax and not worry because Jen would send text and pictures daily letting me know what was going on. I will definitely be using her again. Thanks Jen!”

I currently work Tuesday through Friday. I’m available for lunch time walks and evening care on these days. I am mostly available Saturday, Sunday and Monday. I live on 10 acres and have space for your fur babies to run around. I currently have 1 small dog and two cats that get along well with other animals. I have the ability to crate your babies as well.

About: I am a reliable and flexible pet sitter! I have a soft spot for all kinds of cats and small dogs, and will probably take a million pictures with your fluffy friends! I am currently working 8-5:30 in the Greenwood area and love to care for pets in my free time! If you have any questions about availability, please feel free to message or check my calendar! I send pictures and communicate with you a lot about your pet, to make sure they are getting the best care possible from me. I want them to feel as comfortable as they would be with you!
About: Growing up, our home was a joyful (and sometimes chaotic!) zoo of dogs, cats, hamsters, turtles, and even the occasional rescue rabbit. My earliest memories are of curling up with our German Shepherd after school, sneaking bits of toast under the table, and learning—through muddy paws and tail wags—that animals aren’t just pets, they’re family. Over the years, I’ve been lucky to care for animals in every stage of life—from bottle-feeding newborn kittens to administering medication to sweet senior dogs with arthritis. I have a soft spot for rescues and shy animals who need a little extra time to trust. I’ve worked with high-energy breeds that thrive with structured walks and stimulation, as well as gentle couch potatoes who just want someone close by to snuggle. What truly sets me apart is my intuition and respect for each animal’s individuality. I don’t treat pet care like a checklist—I listen, observe, and adapt to what your pet needs. Is your dog a slow walker who likes to sniff every blade of grass? We’ll take our time. Do they need mental stimulation? Let’s puzzle it out together. Does your cat demand a very particular style of chin scratch? Challenge accepted. I’m also comfortable with basic training and reinforcing routines around crate time, leash etiquette, and mealtime manners. I pay close attention to changes in behavior, appetite, or energy levels, because I know those subtle shifts matter. I’ve cared for pets with special diets, separation anxiety, allergies, and mobility issues—and I always treat these needs with the seriousness and compassion they deserve. To me, being a great pet sitter isn’t just about showing up on time—it’s about being fully present, fully invested, and truly loving what I do. I’m not just a caregiver—I’m your pet’s new best friend (and maybe their second-favorite human after you!). I work from home and make my own schedule so I build my days around your pets’ routines, not the other way around. I’m available for early morning walks, midday play breaks, or evening check-ins, and I pride myself on being reliable and responsive. Whether it’s a weekend getaway or your 9-to-5, I’m here to give your pet the love and attention they deserve. Whether in your home or mine, I create a safe, loving, and peaceful environment. I follow your instructions closely, keep spaces tidy and pet-friendly, and maintain communication throughout. I never leave pets unsupervised in unsafe situations, and I pay close attention to details—from locked gates to feeding routines. I have a fully-fenced, large yard for playtime and potty breaks, and there is no off-limits furniture for furry family members. My goal is always to make your pet feel secure, seen, and cared for.
“Cynthia is fabulous! We were expecting a new grand baby so our dates were sketchy - she was willing to be flexible. She is dependable, kind, loves animals and we know Abbe will be happy when we return! So sad she is moving to Charleston!”
About: I have two dogs, one cat, and a duck that I have experience with taking care of. I have also been dog sitting for about two years. I am currently working part time, but would be able to check in on pets in the mornings and when I get off work. I am usually open on weekends as well. I would make sure they stay in their respective area and keep the area clean. I would make sure that doors stay locked and everyone stays safe.

Payton W.
“Payton takes a special interest in the pets she interacts with. She spends time with the pet and makes sure the experience is the best. She goes on walks if requested and also just spends time with them showing her love for animals.”
Taryn C.
“I worked with Taryn for about three years, and over that time, we became good friends outside of the office as well. One thing that stood out early on was how reliable she was—not just professionally, but personally. If she said she'd take care of something, she did, and she paid attention to the details most people overlook. That level of care extends to how she treats animals, too. I’ve seen her take care of pets in all sorts of situations—watching over a friend’s dog recovering from surgery, checking in on a neighbor’s cats during the holidays, even stopping to coax a stray off the road and find its owner. None of it was performative. She just does these things because it’s second nature to her. She’s not the type to overpromise or treat it like a cute hobby. She takes it seriously—whether it’s remembering a feeding schedule, noticing when something seems off with an animal’s behavior, or just making sure a dog gets enough time to actually be a dog on a walk. If you want someone who will treat your pets with real respect and consistency, Taryn’s the right person for it.”
