“As always, my kitties were loved and cared for beautifully while I was away. Magan always sends pictures of the cats and gives a brief description of her visit and interaction with both cats. I never have to worry when Magan is on the job!”


“Paris & Saint J are so lucky to have Jessi take care of them. Jessi was very responsive and she took such wonderful care of my cats while I was away. I really appreciated how responsive she was —always quick to reply to my messages and keep me updated with photos and little notes about how the cats were doing. Even better, she was proactive about making sure my cats’ needs were met, from playtime to feeding and even noticing the little details that keep my cats happy and comfortable. It’s such a relief to know my pets are in such caring and attentive hands. Thank you so much, Jessi!”


“Kristen is an excellent sitter. This is the 2nd time we've used her. Her communication is great and she always sends lots of pics of our sweet Siamese cat, Sabine, who has warmed up to her.”


About: Have worked with animals since I was a little kid. Have cared for all types of animals including deer and snakes. Love dogs and cats and feel that they need the same love and care we give each other. I have been helping my girlfriend Courtney Barron with her rover account for almost a year now. We have several regulars that we love to sit for. Dogs especially love me bc I can’t help but hug them and love them. I am available everyday for sitting and available after 2 pm Monday - Saturday and before 3 on Sunday for all other services. Ask for further availability. I have a small home space but love and care for one dog at a time so they get my full attention. Animals are allowed on my furniture and will probably love to sit and watch movies with me.

About: My whole life I have been around animals. I have 4 years experience as a veterinary technician. I have a degree in Animal Science from Texas A&M, and was a puppy raiser for a service dog organization in college. I trained 3 service dogs in my time with the non profit, we trained service dogs free of cost for veterans with mobility and ptsd needs. We used strictly clicker training and positive reinforcement and trained everything from potty training, to crate training to socialization and recall, and more complex tasks like opening doors, and paying for groceries, getting help etc. I also worked at Texas A&M's equestrian barn in college. Now I puppy and cat sit for friends and love on our outpost cat at the rafting company I work for. I have a childhood dog at home named Sam, he is 13 years old. I have experience with seniors, young puppies and kittens, rabbits, and large animals. During my time as a vet tech I trimmed nails, administered meds and placed catheters and much more! I am working part time currently and have a pretty flexible schedule, so get in touch with me to see if we're a good fit! I have lots of experience walking dogs, I had service dogs with me 24/7 on campus and around town. I am very cognizant of my surroundings and environment, as well as potential medical symptoms to look out for heat stroke etc.

“Grey was amazing and I would highly recommend and will be booking again! He watched my Jack Russel and they became fast friends and my house was in great shape when I returned. Thank you so much for taking such great care of my guy!!!”


About: I treat your dog as I would want my own dog to be treated. The Golden Rule doesn't just apply to humans. My dog is a Canine Good Citizen so I am good at training puppies. My parents had senior dogs with seizures and diabetes so I am good at giving shots. I'm retired so I have a lot of time on my hands to stay with your pets. I am very flexible as to when I can come to your house. I will treat your pet with the same love and devotion that I give to my own pets. I will adhere to their normal routine so we won't stress them out anymore than they need to be while you're away.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my experience with both puppies and senior dogs, as well as my background in training. I’ve raised a goldendoodle/poodle mix, Willa, from 8 weeks old, and she knows numerous tricks! I also have experience caring for an anxious senior chihuahua, Cassie, helping her become playful and trusting through patience and calm energy. I’m adaptable and can work with dogs of any energy level, from high-energy pups to more relaxed seniors, always tailoring care to their unique needs. Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine since I work online with a lot of flexibility. I can adjust my schedule to provide care whenever needed, whether it’s for short drop-in visits or long stays. Every pet is unique, so I make sure to listen carefully to each client's needs. I want to fully understand your pet’s routine, preferences, and any quirks they might have. That way, I can make sure they’re fed, exercised, and loved in the way that feels most familiar and comfortable to them. I’m very adaptable—whether your pet is shy, energetic, elderly, or somewhere in between. If your pet stays in my home, they’ll need to be okay with two playful (and sometimes rowdy!) female doodles. My parrots, Ziggi (a blue quaker) and Dusty (an African grey), are kept in the basement, and depending on your dog’s preferences, they can be kept away from or near them. I have crates for both of my dogs, so I can create a calm, quiet environment if needed. If that sounds like too much stimulation, I totally get it—in that case, I’d recommend housesitting or drop-in visits so I can create the most peaceful setting for your pet.

“Dixie and her husband Norwood stayed with my two cats while I was away for three days. They took great care of the cats and my house and I couldn't be happier with them. Dixie sent numerous photos and communicated several times. I will DEFINITELY use them for any and all future trips where I need pet sitting!”


“Taylor was great with my two cats. She sent me pictures of them to show me how they were. They seemed happy and comfortable with her, and were content when we got back home. I definitely recommend her, and will leave my babies in her care again when we travel.”


“Hannah was awesome! She kept me up to date on everything going on at home and sent lots of pictures of our cats while we were away! She really went above and beyond by cleaning out their bowls for us. We would absolutely work with her again!”


“Chyann was great and a wonderful communicator. My kitties don’t really like other people in their house, so I can’t ask them, but it looks like all was well taken care of and they weren’t in want of anything! I’d happily rebook with Chyann”


About: I recently moved to SC! I’ve taken care of cats, dogs and other critters on and off for 10 years and have 2 of my own cats and 1 dog currently! Since high school I’ve done volunteer work with multiple animal organizations and shelters in my home town. I frequently look after friends and families fur babies and would love to care for yours too! I just moved to Oconee County after graduating with my bachelors and have more free time than I would like to admit! Let me know what you and your pets need and I will do my very best to be there for you as often as possible even 24/7. In your home I will do whatever is in yours and your pets best interest and do my best to abide by whatever rules necessary for the benefit of you and your animals by walking and feeding at correct times and giving them the whatever attention necessary!

About: I have a big yard that I can use to play and walk with dogs. I am responsive and very loving towards animals. I have a very open schedule with being a first time mom of a 6 month old! While I do have a sweet baby girl, I also have a bunch of time outside of that. I can easily drive to your house and check in or do walks with your dogs. I would absolutely love to be able and help you with your animals! Me and my baby love to get out so this will be an exciting experience for us! Thank you! I want to provide as much trust and safety for your sweet pet. I want them to get the best care possible, I will provide as much care as they need.

“Cassondra did a fantastic job with our 6 kitties. The care she provided was top notch and all the kitties were very happy while we were away. Would definitely ask for her again.”


“We are very happy with Aerial and Pote too. She’s responsible, reliable and understands Pote. He can be a bit intimidating, but she won him over with love and affection. The Moulier’s”


About: While I am new to Rover, I am not new to pet care! My family has raised boxer puppies for 20+ years and small breeds for 10+. So I have worked with all sizes and ages, from bottle feeding newborn puppies to taking care of elderly dogs and I love every minute of it! I have 4 dogs, 4 rabbits, 2 sugar gliders a cat, and a duck, and all 12 of them are very spoiled furbabies! So if you have any “exotic” animals that need to be checked on while I’m around that won’t be a problem! I spend every minute I have with my furbabies and look forward to being able to spoil yours as well! While your dog is in my care I will love them like my own. I love being outdoors so hiking and dog parks are part of my daily routine. I can’t wait to meet your furbabies!

“Kristen is an excellent sitter. This is the 2nd time we've used her. Her communication is great and she always sends lots of pics of our sweet Siamese cat, Sabine, who has warmed up to her.”


Martin m.
“We all love Martin - humans and furbabies. Our German Shepherd Ford is so attached to him. I'll tell Ford that Martin is coming over and he will sit by the door all day waiting for him. When Martin and Courtney are both here, Ford doesn't even want Courtney to be by him - not in an aggressive way - just cries and barks until he gets attention. What is truly awesome about Martin is knowing that not only are our animals taken care of, but also our house. When we leave I know that they treat our home like their own. Along with every day chores; litter boxes, grabbing mail, etc. He also makes sure the garbage is put out once a week, or any other special duties. And the best part is that I know he LOVES our animals, especially Ford. You will never go wrong having Martin take care of your animals.”
