“Leslie did an amazing job taking care of our fur-babies, Berlin and Cairo, while we were away! She made sure they were well-fed, kept their water fresh, and stayed on top of scooping the litter box. What stood out most was the time and care she dedicated to playing with them—Berlin and Cairo clearly loved having her around. It’s obvious she genuinely enjoys spending time with animals and takes her responsibilities seriously. We’re so grateful for her help and would absolutely trust her to care for our pets again in the future! Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter. Thank you, Leslie!”
“Stephanie was great to work with, she responded quickly and was able to help us out last minute. She was reliable and was there on time to take care of our cat while we were out of town.”
About: Not only did I grow up in a home filled with pets of all kinds and sizes, I have raised and trained my own dogs and cats. I am very comfortable with all breeds and sizes! I work a typical 8 to 5 job with an hour lunch break plus evenings and weekends free. I love to spend my extra time with furry faces and cuddles. I'm naturally attentive and can work with all behaviors. I'm able to administer medicine and follow house rules. I also love to take photos/videos and send updates throughout the whole visit with pet parents approval.
About: I have many years of experience caring for pets of all breeds, colors, shapes, and sizes! I will love and care for them as if they are my own! I’m available full-time! Any time, day, or week! I can come multiple times a day if needed as well! My schedule is very flexible so I have lots of availability! I will care for them as if they are my own! I can easily care for multi-pet households and administer oral medications if needed! I make a great thunder buddy as well!
“Makaiah went above and beyond checking in on my kitty for me while I was away over the holiday weekend! She sends lots of pictures, which I LOVE, and made sure my sweet kitty got all the love while I away. I couldn’t be more happy with her service and would recommend her to anyone!”
“Arthur is the best!! Very dependable, experienced, and communicative. He sends you pictures of EVERYTHING: action shots of playing fetch, feeding the pups treats, the water bowl, even potty pictures haha. We had a bit of a complicated case because our two dogs needed to be kept separate due to behavioral issues. Arthur took our detailed instructions seriously and went above and beyond what we asked. The dogs absolutely love him and we will certainly book again!”
“This was the first time I had ever used this app before and was extremely nervous. Sarah was very helpful and very sweet and in the pictures, my babies look happy! I will def be using her again and appreciate all of her help!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. From growing up with my own, to watching furry friends while family friends were away or at work, I have many years of experience. I am a dog lover and will make sure your pup has the best care possible! I am currently working, however I only work three days out of the week and have plenty of time to help out with your furry friends! I have a reliable car to take to your place and am more than happy to take your pups anywhere you are comfortable with to walk!
About: I have had pets all my life. I’m very active and run most days. I like to stay busy, am very nurturing, calm, and kind. I’m not going to crate your pet and be gone all day. I have exceptional character and am a baby boomer with a strong work ethic. I’m fine with cameras watching my every move! Most of all, I genuinely care for all living things and pets love me. So do people! Most that hire me are repeat customers. If your dog is sick or needs a vet visit, happy to help! I’m retired from a successful sales career in Human Pharmaceuticals for a Fortune 500 company. Love to stay busy and active. Please reach out and let me help you in our very fast and multi faceted world! Large safe fenced yard at my residence! I have a 2 year old female lab that loves dogs, cats, kids, people. She loves everyone. My precious Pearl. Experience in Dog Rescue Centers! I’m working full time until 12/31/24. I will then be taking 4/5 months off! I may return to work part time. It will depend on our economy which has been awful. It’s sending many of us seniors back to work. I need to know about your dogs temperament. Do they pace with anxiety? Are they food aggressive. Do they calm down at a strangers home?
“It was a joy to work with Brandie! Her positive energy during out meet and greet made me feel comfortable. She took the time so we (animals too) got to know her. I look forward to having Brandie pet sit for me again.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs for over 8 years, including my own who has chronic pancreatitis. I’m comfortable with special diets, medication, and senior dog care. I treat every dog like family—patient, loving, and attentive to their individual needs. Whether your pup is high-energy or needs a gentler pace, I’ll provide safe, thoughtful care tailored just for them. Before getting my own dog at 19, I grew up in a home that always had two dogs. Helping care for them was a constant part of my life and taught me the responsibility, empathy, and joy that comes with loving animals. Additionally, I’ve been volunteering at Hallie Hill Animal Sanctuary, which has deepened my experience with dogs of all breeds and backgrounds. I'm currently in graduate school, which gives me a flexible schedule to care for your pups! I'm available for walks and in-home visits on Tuesdays, Fridays, and some weekends (just ask about weekend availability). I make pet care a priority and will always treat your dog with the same love and attention I give my own. When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritize safety, routine, and comfort. I follow all instructions closely—from feeding schedules to preferred walking routes—and make sure your pup feels secure while you're away. I always respect your space, keep things clean, and treat your home and pet with care and kindness. My goal is to maintain a calm, trustworthy presence so your dog stays happy and stress-free in their familiar environment.
About: I absolutely love taking care of both dogs & cats! I specialize in dog walking & exercise! I have the sweetest golden named maple & love taking care of her! I know how important it is to know they are cared for when traveling or at work! I work from home for myself & have a very flexible schedule that allows me to get walking exercise in easily! I aim to be as on call as possible! I primarily offer dog walking services but I know how our pets are the most valuable thing we love! I am very protective over the pets I walk and prioritize their health & safety!
About: Dogs have been part of our life forever, and now we share our adventures with our playful 2.5-year-old Catahoula Leopard Dog! We’re pros at beach zoomies, exploring trails at John’s Island County Park, and playing with our friends at the dog park. Your furry friend will be treated like part of the pack—playtime, snuggles, and endless tail wags guaranteed! Your dog(s) can have their own separate comfortable suite in our home or can mingle and play as much as they'd like with our pup, whichever you/they prefer! Conveniently located on your way to Kiawah/Seabrook Island, we are here to make your time away from home comfortable and convenient! We have a unique living situation where we live above the bicycle shop we own so one of us will be “home” most of the days. Our schedules aren’t consistent but if we aren’t “home” running the shop, we won’t be away from home for longer than 3 hours at a time. In our home, pets are treated like family, and every day is a new adventure! The mornings always kick off with fetch in our yard. While we’re in the process of building a fence, our yard is tucked away off the road, next to a quiet driveway leading to a storage facility—plenty of space to play safely! Our dog (and yours, if you’re comfortable) then heads to work at the bicycle shop, where she’s the official greeter and mood booster, soaking up love from coworkers (furry ones and human ones) and guests. Midday breaks are all about chasing tennis balls and soaking in extra snuggles. After work, the real fun begins! We head to John’s Island County Park’s dog park or Beachwalker Park for epic sunset zoomies on the beach. Your pup will enjoy endless playtime, love, and adventure with us—it’s a tail-wagging good time every single day! Your dog(s) can join in on all the fun with the other pups and people or can be kept separate while still being comfortable, getting lots of play, and all the love they need!

Jazzalyn S.
“Jazz has displayed a great passion and extensive knowledge for many types of animals. She has a ton of experience caring for dogs in particular as well and has shown to be very responsible and loving toward them! One anecdote I have that proves her passion and knowledge for animals was one time when a wounded fox showed up at my front porch, she was the first person I contacted about it and she already knew exactly how I should treat it and was concerned enough to offer to drive over to help the fox. There have been many other instances where I have been impressed by how much she knows about and cares for animals, but that was just the first one that came to mind. There is no doubt that Jazz would do a great job as a dog sitter! I don’t think I have ever met anyone else who was as informed and affectionate toward animals!”

Hannah G.
“I couldn’t be happier with the care Hannah provided for my dog and cat! From the very beginning, she was professional, kind, and clearly love animals. She took the time to understand my animals needs and personality. My dog came home happy and relaxed, and my cat—who can be shy—was very comfortable. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. It’s such a relief to know I can trust someone to treat my pets as their own. Highly recommend!”

“Kelly is the best pet sitter! We have had her watch our 2 dogs and cat for years now and wouldn’t have it any other way. She walks our dogs all the time and they’re so excited every time she comes over. Our pets are treated like royalty, enjoying all the love and attention they could ever want. She goes above and beyond with her pet care and treats ours as if they were her own! Seriously, if you want your fur babies to have the best time while you're away, Kelly is the one to call!”

“Tonya was excellent”
Angelina S.
“Loved having Angelina. She took great care of our babies!”
Kelley H.
“I highly recommend Miss Kelly to take care of your puppies, dogs, pets, and baby puppies. She is the most caring dog sitter ever. She personally adopted a dog that was abandoned and left to die. Only a selfless person can handle a situation like that. Her dog has gained weight and his hair has all grown back. He is the most luckiest dog in the world. Ms. Kelley is the only person I would ever trust my dogs with.”

“Mia has been a dog owner her entire life. She is kind, caring, and extremely diligent when it comes to caring for her pets. She rescued her current dog several years ago, cared for him, and brought him back to being an extremely happy and healthy dog. She spends plenty of time making sure he gets adequate exercise, both on long walks and in her large backyard. As a dog owner myself, I would confidently have Mia care for my dog any time. Any dog lucky enough to spend time with Mia would be extremely happy and well cared for.”
Carolina D.
“Carolina took great care of my two cats. She followed all my instructions regarding their care.”

Renee & Nicholas B.
“10/10 responsible and loving pet caregivers! I always leave my boxer (Obi) with Renee and Nick any time I leave town. Obi adores them, and I never worry about him when I leave him with them. They are reliable, caring--cannot recommend them enough for any and all your pet-caring needs.”
