“Anna took amazing care of my cats with complex medical and relational situations. She put even my most anxious cat at ease. Her communication was so detailed and so helpful. And the pics she sent almost made me feel like I was right there with them. I couldn't be more grateful for the care she gave them and the peace of mind she gave me while I was traveling!”

“Aimee is wonderful with our two fur babies! She takes them out for potty breaks and walks, and gives them lots of snuggles. When we can’t be home during the day, we always feel comfortable knowing Aimee is coming by.”

“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.”


“Daniel was fantastic when I needed help with my girls!! He sent me regular pictures of them, and I knew they were well taken care of! It was so heartening to know that I dogs were well cared for while I was working. I highly highly recommend Daniel if you ever need assistance with your animals!”

“Cory & Stacey were Great! They treated our cats as if they were their own. Their daily comments reflected the careful attention they paid to them. And the pictures taken always helped to reassure us that the cats were in great hands. We will definitely ask for them the next time we need them!”

“Angelica was fantastic! She stopped by for a drop-in visit with our dog and did an amazing job. She was on time, super sweet, and gave our pup plenty of love and attention. I really appreciated the updates and pictures she sent even including our cat! I’ll definitely be booking with Angelica again!”

“We used Jade as a sitter for the first time for a weekend trip. She took the time to find all 4 cats on each visit, including the shy ones. She sent photos and updates each visit. We will definitely schedule with her again!”

“Jada was able to help us with our cats on short notice and did an awesome job. Based on the pictures she sent us, even the skittish cat we have took a liking to her!”

“Celia was such a Saint for watching our 3 pups! She even took a little extra time to feed the porch kitties. We got so many pictures and notes, and each visit she stayed for at least an hour to make sure everyone was taken care of. Will definitely use her services again in the future 🥰 thank you Celia!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have experience caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs. I also have some experience with cats. Having worked with many puppies, I’m familiar with basic training, reinforcing good habits, and providing the patience and consistency young dogs need. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾❤️🐶 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time throughout the day for walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of attention. I understand the importance of maintaining a pet’s regular routine and will do my best to keep them comfortable and happy while in my care. 🐾 Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, their safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I follow any instructions provided by the owner regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and routines to help pets feel secure and maintain consistency. I provide plenty of supervision, attention, playtime, and affection while ensuring the environment remains clean and safe. I understand that every pet has unique needs and personalities, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for while their family is away.
“Ally was great to work with! She dropped in on our pups for a full week and was always on time, provided detailed reports for every visit, and even brought in packages for us. I could tell by the pictures she included that our two dogs were having a great time with her. She is also super nice and a great communicator. We will definitely book with her again!”

“I hired Shannon after the sitter cancelled a week before I was leaving. Shannon was punctual which eased my worries. She looked after my 2 cats and also took the trash in. Appreciated the photos she sent.”

“Deborah is punctual, reliable, and so great with our two goldendoodles. Our older dog, Chloe, usually has some anxiety with new sitters, but she exhibited none when she met Deborah! She sent lots of pictures and great notes. I highly recommend!!”

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!
About: I have worked at a dog kennel for two years and have experience working in a veterinary office. I have experience administering a variety of medication, including insulin, eye drops, pills, topicals, and more. I am currently working full-time at a dog kennel. On days that I am working, I go in at 7:30am, but get a break from 12-2pm and from 6-7:30pm. I do not work every day, so I will be available for whole days at times. I do not offer pet care in my own home as I live with my parents and have another dog at home that can be dog selective. But I am more than happy to offer pet care at your home.
About: I lost my sweet Clark (Yorkie/Chihuahua) in 2019. During the time he was with me, I also was the caregiver for my daughter's 2 dogs and a cat whenever they were away from home. I also was the main caregiver for a friend's 2 Bichons while they were away on vacations. It was a happy mix though Clark was a little intimidated by the Bichon brother and sister, we managed to find a way for everyone to be happy. I do not have a dog at the moment. I would do my best to make sure your sweet baby, felt secure and loved. I would make myself available according to their needs. I do not have any pets at the moment. I had a small Yorkie/Chihuahua mix (Clark) for 10 years before he passed from age related illness. I miss him. I would love to care for your sweet baby with lots of affection, play and walks.

And the pics she sent almost made me feel like I was right there with them. I couldn't be more grateful for the care she gave them and the peace of mind she gave me while I was traveling!

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!

We can not recommend Kelli enough! She took such great care of our two cats during an 8-day trip, with AM and PM check-ins to feed them, scoop the litter boxes, and make sure they had their TV on. Every visit came with a bunch of photo updates, which was so reassuring while we were away. It was clear the cats were comfortable and getting plenty of attention. What really stood out was how thoughtful she was beyond just the cats. She noticed our houseplants were within reach and getting too much direct sun, and took it upon herself to move them somewhere safer. Coming home to happy cats and a clean, tidy house was the best feeling. We'd book her again in a heartbeat! Thank you so much, Kelli!

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.
