“Wonderful communication and treated my pup like her own. Prior to our first visit, Lorrie offered to come to our home and meet our pup, we reviewed expectations and guidelines. She reassured me after the first work with pictures, videos and a memo. Would rebook for walks and more! 🐶🐾💛”

“One of the saddest things about moving is losing Alyson as a dog walker! Our boys love her and we always have peace of mind when we know she’s coming to take care of them!”
About: I have pet sit dogs and cats many times for my family. Pets have always been a part of my family, mostly dogs and also sometimes cats. Also at one point an aquarium of fish. Currently I do not have any pets of my own because they are not allowed in the rental lease. I also know of some of the natural area trails and parks in the nearby area that would be good to take dogs for a walk at. My current schedule for pet care can be fit to a wide range of times most days. Other current work activities are mainly involving the start of a small farm type business and volunteer work. I make sure that safety is always a priority and taken into account, one of the main areas of focus being to keep any doors monitored and closed so that a pet does not go outside by accident. Also keeping awareness of any food or other objects in a client's home that a pet could get to by accident.
“Very reliable! Alisha always lets me know well in advance if she’s traveling and communicates very well. She’s great with all of my pets. My dog is one who has to warm up to people.”
“Beatrice walks our Bernie daily - great communication with us - and we are new pet owners so texting her constantly! We have been working with her for over a month now and feel really lucky to have found her.”
“We hired Shelby to meet us at a half marathon and watch our dogs while we ran. We were traveling from Maryland to Vermont and then on to Rhode Island, and we didn’t want to leave our dogs alone. She was AMAZING! Our 2 dogs loved her from the start and we felt comfortable leaving them with her to keep safe. If we were ever to find ourselves in Vermont again, we would definitely look her up! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Jenna was a dream dog walker while we were out of town for a week. She took our gal for long adventures and sent pics and an update each time. She was quick to reply and communicative, and all around lovely. Would gladly hire Jenna next time!”
About: I've cared for pets of my own my whole life (40+ years) including cats, dogs, birds, rabbits and fish, and have been a go-to pet sitter for friends and family for many years. I have my own web design business and work from home with flexible hours, so am able to accommodate pet care visits and dog walks into my schedule as needed. For dog walks: I can pick up your dog(s) in my car and take them for adventure walks on nearby trails, or walk them in your neighborhood. Your preference. For cat/dog pet sitting: If you're planning to be away and need a trustworthy pet-sitter, I'm happy to help. I'll make sure your pets are fed just the way you would feed them. I'll clean your cat's litter box, play with your cat/dog, offer snuggles, and give medications as needed.
About: Hi! I'm Kenzie, and I'm a rising sophomore at The College of Charleston and I'm back in my hometown for the summer. I absolutely LOVE animals, and I have the most experience with dogs and cats. I have a puppy of my own, Quinn, and he is my entire world. I have my own car, so I'm flexible and reliable. Animals bring so much joy and personality into the world, it's always rewarding working with them. I love staying active and being outdoors and connecting with people who love their pets as much as I love mine. I also want to make it clear that I understand the trust you're putting in me from personal experience. My mom works full time, and I attend college so we had to find a dog walker/boarder for my puppy Quinn. The absolute relief we felt when we found an amazing dog walker was indescribable, and I hope to do this for someone else. I am home for the summer and am interested in having Rover be my full time job for the summer. I love dogs and cats, and there would be nothing more rewarding then spending time and caring for dogs and cats as my job!! I have a puppy and I have had dogs my entire life. I am open to boarding, walks and just dropping in to check on the pup/cat! I am also open to taking the animal to my own home. I love long walks, and would happily take a dog to a trail, hike or just my yard, whatever the owner wants!!

I volunteer full time remotely for a local dog Rescue. I offer a flexible schedule and can provide dog care in my home or yours as needed. I have a small dog and a “small dog friendly” medium sized dog for playmates as well as a large fenced yard! I am very cautious to leave my dogs with sitters and understand the added stress of leaving a small dog or puppy in care. I offer 100 percent supervision and safety when I care for pets! I have years of experience with training dogs and knowledge of dog behaviors. I offer care specific to your dog’s needs and can provide drop in visits, walks or hikes and daycare or overnight stays in my home. We have a fully fenced yard in the woods.

Laurie P.
“There are three things that set Laurie apart from other dog sitters: 1. She is reliably caring and understanding with our pet. She gets our dog, and loves her quirks. 2. Laurie is totally dependable. She trekked through 12’’ of snow up a steep driveway to visit our pet on a cold, winter morning. 3. Laurie is proactive about resolving problems whether they are behavioral, medical or something else. If your pet won’t take her medicine, she can handle it. If your pet needs some extra TLC, she can handle it. Laurie also walks our dog, sits with her and gives her much-needed attention and checks in with texts, photos and videos. I highly recommend her.”
