“Mckensey is super amazing! She is flexible, not afraid to ask questions, follows instructions to a T, a great communicator, and was a great person to my fur babies! We will be hiring her again! ♥️”
About: Drop ins: With drop ins, I don't believe in quick stops and feel that a minimum of 10-15 mins are best for fur baby happiness. Walks: I have been walking dogs since our first family pet, when I was 16. I have also cared for dogs who only do their business on walks, so I have learned to be patient. Extra Info: I have experience caring for deaf pets. My dog was born deaf and I have worked to develop a communication system with him to promote happiness and safety. ** My dog will not be present at any time I am with your pet. I work from home so I have some flexibility in my day and can do all of my work right next to a fur baby if needed! I'm probably going to be way more obsessed with your fur baby than they are with me! Even the cats that make me watch them from around corners like a spy!
“Morganne took great care of my cat while I was out of town! She communicated well, gave great updates and clearly cared for the well being of my pet. It was great peace of mind!”
About: Ive been with Rover in Mount Pleasant for over a year. I recently moved to Beaufort. I’ve personally had dogs for 50+ years. I’m a retired chiropractor but still have a home clinical nutrition practice. It’s just myself and my elderly Great Pyrenees, Kiera. As Bill Murray says; I trust a dog that doesn’t like a human, but I don’t trust a human that doesn’t like a dog. I’m retired so I’m home most of the time. I enjoy spending time with my dog Kiera and look forward to having company for her. I’ve been with Rover in Mount Pleasant for over a year. I recently moved to Beaufort.

“Leo's stay with Alicia was absolutely perfect. First of all, our original pet sitter cancelled and Alicia was very accomodating of our last minute request, even making time for a quick meet and greet at our home. She frequently sent updates and photos and was willing to drop Leo off at our home as we were just coming from out of town. Leo had so much fun and came home very happy. Thank you Alicia!”
“Heather was wonderful she went above and beyond taking care of my cats! Despite the snow and ice she made sure to get there and feed them and give them attention while I have been out of town. She is respectful and is a great communicator, would definitely trust her with my kitties anytime ☺️”
About: I have always had dogs ever since I could remember, my first experience having full responsibility over a dog was when I was 13 my father got me a beautiful golden colored German shepherd named Bailey, I walked, Fed, trained, and played with her everyday. she eventually gave birth to 8 pups which were given to family, and we kept one a solid black beautiful pup we named cici, though it was hard I again was given the responsibility for raising her as well. I will be starting out part time, working weekends and holidays. Which will give me an ample amount of time to play and care for your pets. During weekdays I typically am home from 7am to 3pm and my wife is home from 4pm to 8am. Your pets will never be left alone unless it is unavoidable. I have one husky named Zoe she’s usually never in her cage, she’s let outside to potty and run around typically every 2 hours, and once a day are let outside for about 30mins to an hour to run around and play. We feed her about 2 cups of food a day which is the preferred amount for them, and she constantly has a full bowl of water. She’s got plenty of toys for sharing, and loves playing with other dogs. I also have 2 cats, Shushi the oldest tends to keep to herself, Mocha my youngest is rambunctious and loves playing.
“Absolutely the best sitter for our two kitties! She went above and beyond to spend a ton of time with them and make sure they felt loved while we were away. She even put up with our one sassy girl who definitely enjoys affection on her own terms and our boy fell in love with her and her tummy rubs. I can not recommend enough and we will be using her again on our future travels! 😻”
About: I have pet-sat dogs ranging from 15 to 100+ pounds. I have also taken care of a horse, a goat, and chickens for 30 days. I used to foster puppies, kittens, and difficult cats, so I have experience taking care of younger and older animals. I have a veterinary assistant certification with a Pet CPR certification and experience administering oral, topical, and injectable medication. I am currently a college student doing classes online with a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to love on and play with your fur baby/babies. I spoil all animals as if they were my own, and since accidents happen, I do my best to ensure that everyone has fun in a safe environment.
About: I've had at least four dogs as long as I can remember. As a child, they were my first companions and my second caretakers. Even as I grew into an adult, they were always there to comfort me and to brighten the darkest of days. Dogs hold a very special place in my heart and I am eager to give back what they so willingly give; love, acceptance, understanding, comfort, and joy. In the last two years, I have gone from four dogs to one, due to Cancer and Congestive Heart Failure, and I must admit that their absence has affected me deeply. I miss them so so so much!! I'm one of those people that celebrated their dog's birthdays and bought them copious presents for Christmas. While my friends were pulling out their family pics, I was always pulling out my dog pics. I share this same sentiment towards birds, rabbits, and cats; all of which I had growing up. Being surrounded by animals as a child was a great experience. It even prompted me to volunteer at the ASPCA for almost a year. As I hope you can tell, I will not only provide what your pet needs to survive, but I will also provide him/her with special attention and love. I look forward to meeting with both you and your pet! Until then, take care! I will be able to fulfill any house/pet sitting duties without any issues, as I am able to balance my obligations responsibly and with respect to myself and those that hire me. While pet/house sitting, I will abide the rules given to me. This could include when they play, where they sleep, any medications needed, when to eat, etc.
About: I am a retired Vet Tech with 20 plus years working with dogs, cats, and many more! I can handle any medications and can manage special needs care, as well I have a very flexible schedule. This gives me the ability to care for pets in a variety of ways. We can go on walks, play fetch, and lounge on the couch. Whatever the need is I got it! I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your pup if needed, too!
About: I’ve only had my dog for months now but he’s honesty such a good dog at times. He’s a puppy still so there’s still some training to do but we’re both learning. He loves to go on walks which I love as well. It’s refreshing. Im currently working part time and I do have a license so I will definitely be able to put in time to take care of your pets for you. I will walk any dog as long as they’re trained not to pull or yank because I don’t wanna lose your dog. I’m fine with any breed of cat and dog. I’ll love them either way. I’m on here so I can make a little extra money doing what I love. I’m saving up for a car and my checks rn aren’t able to be saved up unfortunately. We have a pretty open back yard where my dog likes to do zoomies. We do live near a neighborhood but we’re down a dirt road kinda away from them. It’s also usually quiet there as well. We don’t usually have wild animals near either.

Casey P.
“As a parent , I know Casey better than anyone else and have had many pets in our household. At one time we had 5 dogs, a rabbit, 3 birds, and a turtle. Casey was a great help and truly loves all animals. She is very friendly and courteous to humans as well as animals. LOL! Casey would not only enhance the lives of the pets she is caring for, but the lives of their owners as well by giving them peace of mind. Their pets will be expertly cared for, so they can go to work, run errands, visit family, or go on vacation knowing their furry, scaled, or feathered loved ones are being treated with respect and lots of love and attention.”
Jill T.
“Jill has a real talent with pets. Maybe it’s the way she notices them? My doggies, when they were puppies and when they were old, loved her. They always perked up when she was around. And I’ve seen this with other people’s pets as well. She’s worked in many different animal environments throughout her life, such as interning at a zoo and animal hospitals and veterinary clinics. Jill has a lot of experience and really knows how to take care of them. See if you can get her to take a picture, too. She’s a pretty darn good animal photographer!”
Tori M.
“I believe that Tori Massingill is a great choice for a dog walker an/or caretaker. My reasoning is because of her absolute love and respect to all and any animal she comes across, she has a firey personality and a great intuition with our animals. I wouldn’t trust my animal with any other person.”
