“Robert, thank you so much for taking care of Siena! It is comforting to know that she wasn't alone for long periods of time and also had someone to play ball with! Truly appreciate it! When we need a sitter in the future, we would like you again to care for Siena,”
“We can’t say enough positive things about Debra. She was incredible with our very rambunctious and energetic pup, and treated her like gold. She loved her and cared for like she was her own, and was also great with our cats. She will be the first person we look for when we are looking for someone to care for our pets. We highly recommend her.”
About: Your dog deserves to have fun, feel loved, and be part of the adventure! I’ve always had a huge love for dogs, and I truly believe they’re family. My motto is “They only have one life too, so bring them along!” I love taking pups on walks, adventures, and everyday outings whenever possible, while making sure they get plenty of cuddles, playtime, attention, and love. When you book with me, you’re not just getting a sitter—you’re getting someone who will genuinely care about your dog and treat them like they’re my own. I want you to be able to relax and enjoy your time away knowing your pup is happy, safe, comfortable, and in loving hands. If you’re looking for someone who will love your dog, spoil them a little, keep them active, and give them the attention they deserve, I’d love to meet your pup! Let’s make their next stay an adventure they’ll love! I am currently working from home so I will be available to tend to them all day long. I am also available on the weekends. I have a large fenced in backyard with two friendly dogs, an eight-year-old, female Boston terrier. and a four year-old, female German shorthair pointer. My dogs have full range of the house and are allowed on furniture. I can also crate your dog if you feel more comfortable with that.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was a kid with our family dogs. My love for dogs carried into my adulthood and I have experience with puppies all the way to senior dogs. We have a huge fenced in yard for your pup to run around and get that energy out! I look forward to meeting you I have an extremely open and flexible schedule. I’m available Monday-Saturday all day. I’m in no rush to be anywhere else so that means your pet will have my full attention. I offer care at your home or my home. Your pets will feel comfortable at my home as we have extra crates, beds, toys, or they can sleep on the couch if they prefer
“Tiffany was GREAT! My baby was well cared for and given a little extra attention as he gets nervous with fireworks and loud noises (it was over the 4th weekend). He was happy and healthy when we returned and she kept us updated with pics and notes during the weekend. Tiffany was also super respectful of our home and we will absolutely book with her again!”
“Daniel does a fantastic job taking care or our Lab. He spends time with him and interacts is always on time and house sits for several days also when we need him. HIGHLY recommend Daniel for your pet/house sitting needs.”
About: I’ve been around animals for as long as I can remember. My first job in high school was pet sitting, and then it grew from there. Throughout covid I would post on facebook groups offering to watch people’s animals. As the years went on I still loved pet sitting, and still watching the same animals I have all the previous years before! Ever since moving to south carolina full time I haven’t pet sat as often, but I would love to get back into it since I have a lot of free time now! I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, cats, lizards, and guinea pigs! Over the years I learned how to administrate oral injections and how to apply topical cream to animal. I also have experience with giving medication throughout the day, whether that’s administrating it by mouth or putting it in a treat for them! My schedule typically changes every week, but I am a server and I do not work full time. I am a recent Coastal Carolina graduate, and now have a lot of free time on my hands throughout the day! I would care for your animals just like I was caring for my own fur babies! I do have a cat at home, and if you needed me to keep your animal at my house, I would have no problem putting my animal in another room to keep your animal safe, if they didn’t get along. In my neighborhood I have two dog parks that are fenced in for outdoor activity. If needed to stay at clients home, I would treat the home as my own and act in a respectful manner. Main goal would be to take care of the pet and make sure they are in a safe/ fun environment!
“Alyssa was AMAZING!! She watched our girl Willow while my boyfriend was at work and I was in Jersey for the weekend. Alyssa was very attentive and very respectful of our home. We will definitely reach out to her again for future pet sitting!!”
About: I have life long experience with caring for different types of animals. My most experience comes from dogs (all sizes), cats, guinea pigs, and rats etc. I have experience pet sitting in particular for about 3 years now for family, friends, and others. I have personally cared for puppies/kittens, adults, and seniors. From bottle feeding all the way to the last moments. I currently work a full time job as a loan specialist between the hours 6AM-2:30PM during the week. I have lots of evening time and the weekends to take care of my own pets (feeding, walking, playing, going on trips) and would love to add others to my schedule for those that need or want some extra support. My care varies depending on the pet, their routine, behaviors, and owners preferences. I follow the guidelines and particular care of each animal to the owners interest and knowledge of their pet. Whether that be my friends dog who has to be crated with his one specific toy and his own radio turned to the gospel station to another owner’s instructions that their cats will only eat if you snap your fingers after putting down their bowl.
“Paris is an exceptional pet sitter who is caring, playful with our pups, punctual, polite, and trustworthy. We were lucky to find her during our vacation at Myrtle Beach. She even recommended an awesome restaurant!! Don’t hesitate to book with her, she’s the best!”
“Carly is our go to sitter for our hyper 1 year old golden. Super responsive and sent lots of pics the whole week my husband and I were away which is great for our peace of mind. Also, our house is always neat and tidy when we come back. We highly recommend her!”
About: I have over 10 yrs of pet care experience, along with my own loving fur-baby! I have a Grooming Certification for Bath and Brush Services with nail trimmings for all size dogs. I am an online college student finishing my Bachelors Degree and have a lots of time and desire to care for your fur-baby! I am a trustworthy, flexible, and honest person who can provide excellent references. I work from home M-F, and I have plenty of time to dedicate to your fur-baby for potty and exercise breaks throughout the day, and I am flexible in the weekends! I live in a small 2 br mobile home with an unfenced, but spacious yard. Pets are welcome to be crated overnight at your request or sleep comfortably in any spot of their choosing within the home! I have my own larger breed dog that is friendly and playful, but can and will be separated during your pets stay upon your request, if needed.
“Robert does a wonderful job caring for my dogs while I’m away. I get photos while I’m gone and when I get home it’s like I never left. They get lots of cuddles and play time too!”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats frequently since middle school, often in house sitting settings as well. I have had dogs throughout my entire life and have many friends with cats and have spent ample time with them. I have dealt with numerous animals with health issues or problems, including older pets and puppies. I understand the value of all the little unique things that are important to an owner to ensure their pet is taken care of, healthy, protected and loved to their standard. My family rescued a puppy this past year, and I took on a large responsibility in training and watching him during his more crucial stages. I have worked with and spent time around multiple rescued animals and understand the value of creating a comfortable environment from them and extra care to detail as they often have triggers from past experiences. I also work with puppies through a local breeder and have learned a lot about puppies and their development. I am a skilled problem solver, know how to communicate well and can recognize when over-communication is important. I manage my time well and feel that people in my life would consider me an overachiever in all things I do. I love animals and miss having them to interact with while at school; therefore, time spent with them is always valuable to me. I am currently a full-time student at Coastal Carolina University and play club volleyball. I have always worked and played a sport full time alongside school, and after transferring here recently, I have found myself with time for a job. With a schedule that makes my routine look different day by day I have found this would be a great fit as I can be flexible in working with clients. My weekends are free and I have lots of longer gaps throughout my day between classes which could be valuable to those who have to leave their pets for long periods of time. I'm from colorado so going home is not an option for me often and widens my availbilty. I have experience working in apartments, houses, ect of all kinds. Often my pet care includes house sitting which I am very comfortable with. I understand the value and basic decency of respect to others homes and possesions. The golden rule is a fundamental aspect of how I operate in my day to day and I would never do something I wouldnt want done to me, my pets or my home. I am a very honest person and would not hesitate to communicate anything that happens in my time with clients pets or their homes. Honesty is the best policy and valuable in maintinging proper care. I am a great problem solver and have lots of experience with handling conflict. I have grown up very indepentdent and am confident people in my life would consider me to be highly reliable and responsible. Positions as team captains, tutoring and as an RA speak to these traits.

I have a pretty flexible schedule, so pet care fits easily into my day. I genuinely love being around animals and enjoy giving them attention, playtime, walks, and care. Spending time with pets doesn’t feel like work to me — it’s something I truly enjoy, and I’m happy to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’m comfortable caring for pets both in my home and in clients’ homes. I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for by keeping up with their routines, giving them plenty of attention, and creating a calm environment. Whether I’m pet sitting in my own home or visiting a client’s home, I treat every animal like they’re my own and make sure they get lots of love, care, and playtime.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Loris walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Loris maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Loris choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
