About: I’m a reliable and caring dog sitter and walker who genuinely loves spending time with dogs of all sizes and personalities. Whether your pup needs a fun walk to burn energy or a calm, comforting presence while you’re away, I’m here to help. I was lucky to have my late dog, Molly, for 11 amazing years, so I’m experienced with daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, and overnight care. I always pay close attention to each dog’s needs, whether that means extra exercise, patience with shy dogs, or lots of belly rubs.

Anna house sitting for my three fur babies, two cats and one very shy and anxious dog. Our dog took right to her. She gave us updates to calm our worries. I would definitely recommend her.

About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was 7. I had many of other pets over the years. 8 Dogs, 4 Cats, 4 Fish, 3 Birds, and 2 Hamster I work full-time. I'm off on Tuesday and Wednesday. I'm up in the morning and work in the evening. I can dog/cat sit on Tuesday and Wednesday, but any other day mostly pet check in. I can do dog/cat walk everyday early in the morning please schedule walk. When I enter I'll make sure your pet(s) don't run out. I'll say hi and let them smell me to see if they are comfortable with me. Give your pets at least 3 walk a day, 3 meal, constant water, affection/playtime, and someone to be a friend.

Lauren did a great job with our dogs. She handled some complicated medication regimes for one of my fur babies and some other household special requests. She is very responsible and we will definitely book her again if needed in the future!

Gabby was absolutely amazing with Uhtred and Miso! From the moment we met, I knew they were in great hands. She gave them so much love and attention, kept me updated with pictures and notes, and really made sure they were happy and comfortable the whole time. Both pups came home relaxed, playful, and clearly adored their time with her. It’s such a relief knowing I can trust Gabby with my fur babies, and I look forward to having her sit for them anytime. Highly recommend her to anyone who wants true peace of mind while they’re away! I have already booked another sitting time with Gabby.

Katia, was wonderful from our first meet and greet meeting. Skylar wagged her tail immediately when Katia entered the court yard. She provided so many pictures and videos of Skylar. We felt at ease with her watching our fur baby. She stayed overnight for 6 nights and everything went very well. We will be using Rover again when Skylar can’t go on the road trip.

About: I believe that the key to care is through kindness and comfort. It is my goal to help your pets feel comfortable and safe at all times. I live in active lifestyle perfect for daily dog walks. I am a nursing student with natural caretaking skills, along with basic understanding of medications, and medication administration. I currently work part-time as a barista. I hope to fill my free time with pet care. My barista job does take up some of my morning availability, but I can work around whats best for you! My afternoons are completely free! Starting with my personal cat care, I have two cats. I clean their litter box, water, and food bowls daily. Always providing multiple accesses to clean water. I’ve had dogs my whole life. I take them on daily walks, and multiple bathroom brakes a day. Always making sure they have clean water, and toys to play with. I would feed them as instructed, of course because each animal is different. With each client I make sure to: send plenty of photos, clean up after them, and keep you updated on your pet!

About: I pride myself on being a loving and attentive pet sitter! Some of the services I am able to provide are long peaceful walks around my neighborhood and reliable transportation for small adventures like the beach! I have ample time throughout my days to provide excellent care for your fur baby. I work from home so I am usually always avaliable. My mail priority with any animal is making them feel safe. Whether that means treats and warming up slowly at their own pace, or playing until they can't play anymore!

About: I’ve been a dog lover for all of my life and have always had a dog near my side. My Great Dane was my best friend until she passed away at 9 last year. I love helping trains dogs and have a great record for training and obedience. I understand how important it is to find someone reliable and understanding to take care of a best friend. I go to school in the mornings and I’m usually available in the afternoons and the weekends with a little notice. My schedule can be very flexible as needed. I have a fenced in backyard. I have three dogs, ages 8,12,12. My three dogs are range from 10 pounds to 100 pounds so I am familiar with taking care of dogs both old and young and small and large. I will follow any specific rules or needs for any client.

About: Hi! I’ve been pet sitting since I was about 10 years old, caring for animals for family, friends, and local clients. I have experience with dogs, cats, and horses of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’m a huge animal lover and genuinely enjoy making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away—whether that’s during the workday or on vacation. I’m attentive, reliable, and always try to keep pets on their normal routine as much as possible. I also have house-sitting experience and take pride in being respectful of your space, always leaving your home just as clean (or cleaner!) than I found it. I’d love to help give you peace of mind knowing your pets are in good hands! I’m currently between jobs, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability to dedicate to pet care. I plan to work part-time this summer, so I’ll continue to have a lot of open time. I’m available weekdays and weekends, including mornings, evenings, and overnight stays. I’m happy to be as flexible as needed to fit your pet’s routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), and any specific preferences your pet has. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection, while also respecting their individual personalities and energy levels. I’m attentive to their behavior and will communicate any concerns right away. I also treat your home with the utmost respect—keeping it clean, secure, and well-maintained while you’re away. I’m happy to provide updates, photos, and check-ins so you can feel confident your pet is safe and well cared for.

Jacy was incredible! She took such great care of my home and my dog while I was away—I came back to a happy pup and a spotless house. She even went above and beyond by doing laundry (after thoughtfully asking if I minded first), cleaned the dishes, put away the ones I’d left in the dishwasher, and maked all the beds. She even took the time to do some training with Joy and now my dog can do new trick and follows commands better. It was such a treat to come home to everything in perfect order. Super responsible, respectful, and kind—highly recommend her to anyone in need of a trustworthy house sitter!

About: I’ve taken care of sweet dogs, fearful dogs, young dogs, old dogs, sick dogs, high energy and couch potato dogs. All dogs like me and I like them. We snuggle on the couch, play and take naps. I don’t take large dogs anymore unless they are seniors. I’m retired and I live a quiet life. I love all animals and enjoy their company. Pet sitting is not a chore for me - it’s a joy. I’m home most of the day so your pet won’t be lonely. Your dogs are royalty at my house. Don’t expect discipline. They play, nap, get snacks (according to what you bring) watch TV, go on leash for potty breaks. If they need a schedule for meals or meds- no problem. What they get from me is ATTENTION.

My wife and I are new to the area and needed to go away for a few days, we have used Rover in the past so that is where I headed and once again, we got so lucky in finding Cheyenne!! Oh my gosh did our "Boys" fall in love immediately and we could see Cheyenne's overwhelming love for them as well. Our days away were filled with updates constantly and photos which put us at ease! We would recommend Cheyenne to anyone but selfishly we don't want her to get too busy for when we have a need again!

About: I care for animals as if they are my own and have experience with a wide variety of dogs. I also volunteer at the humane society once per month. I work from home so am able to give my own animals, and yours, the love and attention that they deserve while you are away. Walks, pets or treats - I'm here to spoil them! I typically have a flexible schedule. I am home most weekdays and weeknights to do drop ins, short walks, car rides and an occasional pet/house sit! I have a fenced yard and animals are monitored while in the yard. Yard is well maintained and pleasant for animals to play or sunbathe.

Jaclyn took wonderful care of my dog, Murphy, for two evenings. She was incredibly attentive, asked thoughtful questions, and kept me updated with the sweetest pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. It made our time away from home far more enjoyable knowing Murphy was in such good hands. I would absolutely use Jaclyn again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter.

Hands down the best dogsitter we ever had on Rover! Jackie (Jaclyn) dogsitted for us for 3 nights during our stay in Sea Island Resorts. She is very detailed in terms of communication with me and caring for dogs. She is also responsible and intelligent, which made the whole sitting experience even more smooth and worry-free. Her service is beyond our expectations.
