About: I can play, walk, feed, give medication, and love your pet as much as you do. I have grown up in a house hold with dogs, I have my own dog, I have fostered puppies before, taken care of neighbors and friends pets while they were away, and also dog sat for my sisters dogs over weekends. I'm currently a graduate student at MUSC with a dog of my own so I understand how much time goes into having a pet and what needs to be done to ensure he/she is always happy. I walk a few miles everyday and would love to incorporate your pup into them! I allow dogs on furniture which means they can have constant cuddles to feel loved while being away from home. I can still give the same amount of exercise they'd receive from home as they would with me. I also have a dog so your dog would have a friend to play with 24/7!

“I couldn’t have asked for better care for my cat, Oreo. Whitney is a true animal lover and really connected with her, which meant so much to me. Her communication was thoughtful, responsive, and always kept me feeling at ease. She went above and beyond, and I truly felt like Oreo was so well cared for while I was away. I would absolutely trust her again!”

About: As a high school teacher, I’m dependable, patient, and calm under pressure. I’ve personally owned three dogs over the past 25 years, so I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I do not currently have pets in my home, which allows me to give focused attention and care to the dogs I work with. I also love being outdoors and enjoy walks, routines, updates, and helping pets feel comfortable and cared for. As a teacher, I’m very organized and consistent with routines. During the summer, I have a flexible schedule with plenty of availability throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and quality time with pets. During the school year, I’m available in the afternoons, evenings, weekends, holidays, and school breaks. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I enjoy being active, outdoors, and dependable for both pets and their owners. I care for pets with patience, consistency, and lots of attention. With my own dogs over the years, I loved taking them on walks, riverwalks, lake outings, and other safe outdoor adventures. I enjoy keeping dogs active, comfortable, and cared for while also respecting each owner’s routines and instructions.
“Tina was great, took lots of pictures and my dogs love her. It put my mind at ease knowing I could count on her to care for them as well as check on them and let me know how they were doing. I will definitely use her again!”

“Skylar is sweet, kind, loving, dependable, and trustworthy. Heidi, my German Shepherd, absolutely loves Skylar - and my cats were just as happy to have Skylar taking care of them. I definitely will definitely hire Skylar again!”

About: I’ve always been an animal lover and have been pet sitting for around 3 years. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me with walking, feeding, and making sure their pets feel safe and loved. I recently graduated high school and currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of time to give your pups the attention, playtime, and care they deserve! I provide loving, attentive care based on each pet’s routine and needs! Whether in my home or my client’s home, I stick closely to their feeding schedule, potty breaks, walks, and playtime to keep them comfortable. I make sure they have a safe, clean environment and plenty of attention. I also send updates and photos so owners feel at ease while they’re away!
“Megan is amazing! She took the time to get to know our animals and went above and beyond. She exceeding our expectations by far and we have already booked her for our next trip!”

“Highly recommend! Elizabeth did a check-in to feed my dog on a Saturday evening. She was punctual, thorough, kind & caring. She took Ellie on a walk and sent several pictures and detailed notes. I was so glad to know she was in good hands - I would absolutely recommend Elizabeth again and again.”

“Hannah was so great with our dog!! She went above and beyond during her trips and always made sure to leave a detailed rundown of her time with our Luna. I genuinely looked forward to reading about every visit and am very happy with how they all turned out. I am looking forward to having her back if she is available in the future! We’ve been home two days and even now Luna looks to the door close to her scheduled times like she waiting for her to walk in and play🥲”

“I couldn’t be more thankful to have found Mary for my two pups, Ava and McClane. She is exactly the kind of sitter any pet parent would hope for—passion for animals, experience, great communication, attention to detail, and punctuality (among many more things!). The dogs are always so content and happy when I arrive back. They love her! When I first approached Mary, it was for a last minute trip, and she was so understanding and accommodating. Feel so fortunate to have a wonderful sitter for my two.”

Lexington dog parents share their Rover experiences
Jade was so great! She was so accommodating with a last minute request and definitely made me feel at ease being away from my two pups for a few nights with her drop-ins. She always sent through great pics and updates about the dogs. We can’t wait to book with her again!

The photos that Jennifer sent belong on an ad campaign for Rover. My little guy looked like he was having a blast. He doesn't get too many visitors so he was a little apprehensive at first, but Jennifer did a great job getting him to relax and it sounds like they had a great time.

Stephanie is fantastic. My little dog Ginger was so excited to meet her and several of my seven cats took to her very quickly. Stephanie is very caring and knowledgeable. She is an excellent listener so I feel my fur babies will be in good care when I need a sitter. I'll definitely book with Stephanie if I need a sitter in the future.
