CERTIFIED PROFESSIONAL SITTER

Pet care experience

Welcome to Baxter's Bed and Biscuit where every pet we care for is treated like family! We received Gold Status in Community Votes for 2025 and Silver for 2024. I am a professional sitter who does this full time. I am licensed and insured. I am also an active member of Fear Free. You will notice a difference between a professional and a hobbyist by not only the price difference but the quality of the care your pet receives. Go with your gut. Only you know what your pet DESERVES. When your dog stays with me, I provide everything your dog would need to have a enjoyable visit. I offer cozy dog beds, food bowls, leashes, tons of toys and lots of homemade dog biscuits. I extend my same caring and loving philosophy to our drop-in clients as well! Whether a kitty or a pup, rest assured your furry family member will receive the same 5 star experience. I offer pick up and drop off service for my busy clients as well. Just add it to the reservation and let me take care of the driving back and forth. A bit of background about us as a family. I have a Masters Degree in Management from Charleston Southern University and I was employed by MUSC for over 13 years before embarking on this career fulltime. I am a Pet Sitters International (PSI) member and a certified Dog Care Specialist. I offer a high level of care and this usually involves detailed reports to my client, unless otherwise advised not to. PLEASE NOTE: I do not take day of requests and I do not accept walks or drop ins after 6pm.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
