“Chayna was awesome! She sent lots of pics and I felt very confident my dogs were happy and well taken care of. You can go on vacation and relax knowing your pets are in the best hands. Highly recommended! I'm pretty sure my dogs felt like they were on a vacation themselves!”



“We are now satisfied repeat customers of Donna & John. Our dogs, Burt & Dolly had no hesitation returning to their 'home away from home' for their 2nd stay. Donna continued her excellent & timely communication before, during (complete with pictures) and after this stay. There were no problems and we had no concerns at all. We have already made another reservation and plan to continue to have Donna take care of Burt & Dolly as needed in the future.”


“Angel was great! We had never boarded our dog so we were a little nervous, but she took great care of him. We received lots of updates of our smiling pup! All the walks & adventures! Honestly, he probably enjoyed his vacation more than his normal day to day life!”


“Very friendly very attentive very knowledgeable. I loved the set up and how well my dog played with their dogs. They have a pool and beds and doggy doors and they're so sweet. Their baby ran up to give me and my baby girl a hug when we left. I would Definitely book them again. Ziva was well taken care of and happy and I know she would love to to back! I recommend 👌”


“Our first Rover experience turned out well. Sean is clearly very good with dogs and our Jasper went right along with him. Sean was quick to respond, easy communication, sent a couple of inside pics with Jasper and updates, no hiccups with drop off or pick up. We would come to Sean again in the future - thank you!”


“Diana did such a wonderful job with our pup. I swear he’s learned some new things. He doesn’t nip as much. He’s waiting before eating. Trainer and sitter in one. Thanks for taking us last minute. Really appreciate you and your family for caring for our baby.”


“Oh my gosh! They are the best. I am 22 and just (impulsively) adopted a puppy while finishing up my senior year here at Clemson. I have had to leave pretty abruptly the past two weekends for job interviews and was unable to bring my puppy with me! Roman and Justne went above and beyond in order to help me out. Not only did they send me pictures, videos, and other means of updates, but they also taught her tricks! My 5 month old puppy Lulu came back smiling, clean, and worn out - which was supper nice after a long weekend and attempting to catch up on school work! When traveling back to SC, I was 6 hours past the time I had originally told them I would be back to pick Lulu up, due to heavy traffic, and Roman and Justne were so quick to accommodate to work around my tardiness. I could not be anymore grateful for their help especially on such short notice. I will be 100000% rebooking! Thank you again for everything - I could not be more grateful for all your help!”


“Annette was wonderful with my 14-year-old dog! She was incredibly sweet and accommodating, even going the extra mile to properly store my dog’s special refrigerated food (which I failed to mention in advance). She kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me great peace of mind. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and reliable sitter!”


“Patty was the absolute best with our new puppy when our other sitter fell through. She was patient loving and kind and even had to take her to the vet while we were out of town. I can’t recommend her enough.”


“Bella was great with Hannah, and I’m so glad we booked her! She took her on plenty of walks, took her hiking, and she treated her with such kindness. She was very accommodating when our trip was delayed and picked her up later. Very flexible, and I would definitely book her again.”


“They are amazing, as always! Kept me updated throughout Tilly’s entire stay and sent me tons of cute pictures and videos. Tilly absolutely loves Nikki & Tom, it’s like Disney World for her!”


“Becky was so kind to my sweet baby girl. Dora is an only kitty and took some time to adapt, but Becky was patient and loved on my kitty. Thank you for taking care of her.”


“Our pup had a great time with Kristi. It felt especially wonderful to get daily pics and updates. Kristi was super responsive and I loved that she asked questions about our dog, showing she cared and wanted our pup to have the best experience. Kristi also took into account our dog's special needs in regards to needing medications. We'd definitely book with Kristi again!”


“She was amazing with all 3 of my baby's! Gave updates everyday on how they were doing and didn't care when they made some trouble like dogs do. Was the best dog sitter! I will definitely be having her watch them again!”


About: I am a veterinarian technician and in school to become licensed/certified. I have been in my position for 3 years, but have owned and pet sat animals for years prior. I do well with dogs of all ages, though seniors and medical needs do have a special place in my heart and I am comfortable and capable of administering any needed medications. I do well with all animals, but primarily pet sit cats and dogs. Will happily train and work with them as well! I do work full-time, so I primarily pet sit on weekends. I can pet sit during the week if the pet will be boarded at my home, but owner must be comfortable with pet being crated and/or brought with me to work. I always make time for the additional short term pets, and treat them like my own! I currently only board in my home, and always take exceptional care of the pets. I can provide exercise as needed, medications, and of course food. I also spend time with them and love to get to know them! I do have dogs and cats of my own, so allowing them to interact if your pet wishes is always good for socializing and quite fun!

“Usually Whitley has just been coming over for visits and play time with our little guy. We asked her to fill in last minute got boarding and she readily accepted. I know our puppy loves her because he was so happy to see her. As always she was prompt and timely with her photos and updates. She went above and beyond by returning him back to our house and saving me the trip upon landing. She does all the little things that helps ease the stress of busy dog owners always on the go. I am so grateful for her!”
