“Chico, my elderly Chihuahua, went to doggie daycare with Amy in Columbia for a couple of hours while I met friends for lunch. Amy has such a wonderful way with animals; you can tell she really loves watching them. She took lots of photos, have Chico lots of attention and even had a pet guestbook for him to sign. Such a cute idea. If you ever need a pet sitter, I highly recommend Amy.”

About: What sets me apart is that I am patient, reliable, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. Since I stay at home, I can give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for by following their usual routine and giving them lots of love and care. Pet care fits into my daily routine because I stay at home and can take care of my pet throughout the day. I feed them, give them water, play with them, and make sure they are comfortable. Taking care of my pet also keeps me active and gives me companionship at home. I care for pets by making sure they are fed, have fresh water, get exercise, and feel safe and comfortable. In my home, I provide attention, playtime, and a clean environment. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medication if needed, and keeping the pet comfortable while the owner is away.

About: So I just love dogs. I have had dogs my whole life and will never not have one. I work from home and am very physically active so my lifestyle works well with dogs as I am around to simply hang out with the dogs or go on long walks if needed! Luckily I work from home as an attorney and am able to provide many walks and attention throughout the day. I also live in an area with a lake and multiple dog parks. I am extremely attentive with any dogs that I take care of. I will provide sitting with care and attention and make sure your dog is safe and taken care of.

“Susan and her dogs were wonderful! She is friendly, conscientious and has a great space to pet sit. Brody the beagle had a great time and I was able to travel up the coast and rest at ease that he was well cared for!”

About: I grew up around dogs working at a grooming shop and love animals! My children are older. They are 21 and 18 and loves animals as well! I do wfh. I’m available during the week and weekends as well. I do have a Pom-a-Poo, Brooklyn and a cat, Milo. They are sweet and loving! I enjoy on nice days taking dogs to the dog park, walks on trails, or through my neighborhood. I do not have a fenced in yard but will take them outside on a leash frequently. I have dog sat for friends and family numerous of times so thought I’d expand and help other people so they feel like their beloved animal is taken care of and in good hands while they are away! I have plenty of time to play with your pups and available pretty much 7 days a week! During the day someone is generally always home. I have a fenced in yard. I also ask if your dog is crated to bring your crate as well. I feed them on the schedule you provide and walks as well I am currently working from home and available to maintain any schedule or routine as needed to ensure dog/puppy day to day in minimally disrupted I have a fenced in yard and make sure I do not leave out items they can get into or harmful to ensure their safety

“Melissa was phenomenal. She took FENWAY with short notice, so I could take my kids on some adventures on our way thru the city as we drove home from a camping trip. She sent me pictures, and Fenway slept most the way home, so I could tell she had a good time”

Brenna N.

“If you are a super picky dog parent like me, you will not trust your babies to just anyone looking to make a few extra bucks while you're away. Wendy's home is dog friendly with plenty of fresh clean water, comfortable furniture, baby gates to prevent door-dashing, and a well maintained HUGE secure fenced back yard with plenty of room for your dogs to run and explore! She is a wonderful pet parent, and her personal dogs are very well socialized, loved and cared for. 5 stars from this dog mom!”

About: At Forrest's Furry Friends LLC, Jenna and I provide a loving, state-licensed alternative to traditional kennels. As a family-run business, our goal is to give every dog a true home-away-from-home experience where they are treated like family and receive individualized attention. Jenna began boarding dogs in 2018, and together we have experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, including senior pets and dogs requiring daily medication administration. We are familiar with crate training routines and can accommodate separate feedings for dogs with special dietary or behavioral needs. Safety is our top priority. Our property features a secure 6-foot perimeter fence with dual-gated entry and exit points for added security. We intentionally limit our capacity to 11 dogs overnight at a time so we can provide personalized care, close supervision, and a comfortable home environment. During your pup's stay, you'll receive daily updates and photos so you can relax knowing they're safe, loved, and having fun while you're away. At Forrest's Furry Friends LLC, pet care is our daily focus. David works full-time in boarding and training, and Jenna works remotely, allowing for frequent supervision and a flexible schedule to meet your pup's needs. We are available seven days a week, including weekends and holidays. Our standard drop-off window is 7:00 AM–10:00 AM, and our standard pick-up window is 5:00 PM–7:00 PM.
