“Becky was wonderful! Very communicative, took great care of our pups, and left our house in wonderful shape. We’ve already booked her for another stay and will continue to use her as often as possible!”

“Aaron was absolutely amazing caring for our 3 doggies for 9 days. We were super nervous to leave them, but Aaron made us feel stress free. He was super communicative with morning, afternoon, and nighttime check-ins with pictures and how they spent their days. He went above and beyond, even cleaning, washing the linens, and leaving a delicious blueberry breakfast treat. He was exceptional. Our dogs loved him and he will definitely be our go-to person from now on.”

About: What sets me apart is the level of love, patience, and personal attention I give every dog in my care. I treat each pet like family, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I focus on creating a calm and positive experience tailored specifically to them. I just graduated from college so my flexible schedule allows me to accommodate walks, feeding schedules, playtime, potty breaks, and personalized care throughout the week, including mornings, evenings, and weekends. Whether caring for energetic puppies or senior dogs needing extra patience and comfort, I adapt to each pet’s unique needs and routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I keep their normal routine consistent by following feeding instructions, providing fresh water, regular potty breaks, exercise, and companionship so they feel safe and comfortable. I'll closely monitor each pet’s needs and behavior, including special care for puppies, senior pets, or those needing medication.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was a teenager and have experience with a wide variety of breeds and personalities. Currently, I have a 4-year-old German Shepherd/Lab mix and a 4-month-old Jack Russell Terrier. Over the years, I’ve owned and cared for German Shepherds, Beagles, Pit Bulls, Jack Russells, Labradors, and Schnauzers, and at one point had as many as six dogs. I’ve also owned a cat and have experience caring for cats as well. Friends frequently trust me to pet sit for them, and I genuinely love spending time with animals. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, playful, or needs a little extra patience, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. I also am a Volunteer Dog walker and caregiver at Columbia Animal Shelter. I have a very flexible schedule and am committed to providing reliable, attentive care while you’re away. I’m currently in the army and work 2-3 days a week.my husband stays at home full time. I have a very flexible schedule. I care for every pet as if they were my own. In my client’s home, I follow their pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and plenty of attention and affection. I know how important consistency is for pets, especially when their owners are away. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and supervised environment with regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, fresh water, and lots of love. I pay close attention to each pet’s individual needs, personality, and comfort level to help them feel secure and happy.
“Kristin was wonderful with my 2 senior dogs for the first time i used a sitter. She sent me multiple pictures and a few videos which showed me how well they were doing and responding to her. She is very kind and caring. I will DEFINITELY request her again!”

“Rachel always makes me feel at ease when she’s with our dogs! She sends frequent updates and I really feel she loves them like her own. To top it off, we had flight issues that made it so we would be gone two extra nights and she was willing to go the extra mile and stay with them despite having her own life and responsibilities. We are just feeling so grateful for Rachel!”
“Jonathan saved our vacation. We had booked with another sitter that never showed up, so we were messaging other sitters frantically on Rover. Jonathan responded very quickly, accepted the job, and showed up within half an hour. I introduced him to the dogs and they immediately loved him. Throughout the week he provided updates and photos. He took them for walks to a local park and around the neighborhood. After a nightmare of a start to our vacation, Jonathan put our minds completely at ease. We could not have asked for a better dog sitter.”

“Kairah’s the best! My husband and I were gone out the country for our anniversary (8 days )without a single worry. She sent videos and pictures of our sweet boy Sebastian. She took great care of him with belly rubs, daily walks, brushing his coat, and playing with him. We will definitely book her again for our next adventure!”

“One of our sweet fur babies recently received some bad news from our vet. This was our first time leaving him since his diagnosis, & I was so worried. Between that & my work schedule being so hectic, the lead up to our trip out of town was just a mess. Stephanie made everything SO much easier for us. Knowing she was caring for them while we were away put me totally at ease. She is kind, patient, communicative, & so very thoughtful. I loved getting updates and check-ins from her. Our cat has had a very poor appetite, & she went above and beyond to try to get him to eat—which means the world to me. It’s not always easy to find someone you can trust with your pets—especially if one of them is ill or takes medication—but Stephanie is the BEST!”

“Majestyc was wonderful with our Klooney and Brutus. She sent me photos and videos of our dogs under her care. Klooney didn’t want to eat and she was so patient with him and helped him start to eat. We will definitely ask her to care for our dogs next time we are out of town.”

“We had a wonderful experience with Chloe! She took great care of our dog and two cats while we were away and gave us total peace of mind. She sent frequent pictures and check-ins, which we really appreciated, and it was clear our pets were happy and well cared for. We would absolutely recommend her and would love to have her sit for us again!”


About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 13 years old for friends, neighbors, and family members. I am comfortable will all dog breeds and ages, and have experience with many different types of dogs. I have previously worked for a small pet sitting/dog walking business as both a pet sitter/walker and office manager. I, myself, have an older German Shepard that needs frequent play time and takes medicine daily; I am very comfortable administering medicine to dogs. I am currently taking online college classes to obtain my bachelor's in Kinesiology. I do have a job as a personal trainer/group instructor and admin for a small gym in the area. I am available early mornings before 8am and afternoons after 1pm. I have experience in homes with and without fences, with dogs who are and are not crate trained and very comfortable, and experienced, with calm and excited dogs.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats in my household for as long as I can remember. Friends and family have trusted me to check in on and care for the pets for years now and I always love getting to know the inside personalities of your furry friends! I’m currently living with my parents while I’m on break from college and working a few odd jobs here and there to make extra money, so I have a very adjustable schedule that allows for plenty of time to care for your pets! I have a fenced in back yard and a pretty spacious house. I do have a dog who loves other dogs so they can certainly play together if applicable. My two cats would largely just ignore/avoid animals they aren’t familiar with. In your home I can adjust to whatever your pet’s individual needs are.

Johann was fantastic with Quincey and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Quincey is a 3-year-old Australian Shepherd with plenty of energy, and it was clear from every update that she was happy, comfortable, well cared for, and having a great time. Johann sent regular updates and videos, and I never worried about her for a second because I knew she was in such good hands. Johann was incredibly accommodating, attentive, and truly went above and beyond. I already plan to book with him again for my next trip in a couple of weeks, which is probably the strongest endorsement I can give. I would highly recommend Johann to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter.

Mariah was on time and kept us informed each day with how my pets were doing along with photos. It was obvious from the photos that my cats and dog were very comfortable and happy to be around her. If you are looking for someone who is dependable, cares about your animals, and can be trusted, then she would be a good fit for your pets as well.

Thomas did an AMAZING job of watching our two pups and house sitting while we were away on vacation. He was very prompt with his responses and kept us informed throughout his stay. He also left the house in wonderful condition. We would absolutely recommend him to anyone who needs a reliable sitter.
