“Mary went above and beyond- she showed that she genuinely cared for our dog, Max. He was safe and happy! We highly recommend Mary to care for your dog. Just don’t take our spot! 😂”

“Heather did a fantastic job house- and dog-sitting for us over a long weekend. Our dogs were well taken care of, happy, and relaxed when we came home. She sent several pictures while we were away, which gave us great peace of mind. Heather followed all care instructions perfectly, including giving medication as needed. She left the house spotless — everything was clean and in great shape. She was also super easy to schedule with and communicate with throughout. We’d definitely have her sit for us again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible pet sitter!”

“I just moved to South Carolina a month ago and had to be away a couple of days this past weekend. I was quite anxious having to find someone to stay in my home and take care of my sweet, Nala. She is older, is a rescue, is a large dog, and the move was alot for her. I arranged a meet with Jerry and I was at ease right away; more importantly, Nala was at ease right away. I think dogs sense immediately if a person is a good fit or not. The day I had to leave, Jerry showed up on time (a bit early, actually, which I truly appreciated) and Nala was very excited to see him. Jerry sent many pictures and texts about how things were going over the two days, let me know when he had to leave for awhile and communicated when he was back. Nala needs alot of love and Jerry was attentive and very willing to give affection to her. The stay could not have gone better. Jerry was also very respective of my home and took good care of everything while I was gone. I highly recommend Jerry and am grateful I found him on Rover.”

About: I have over 5 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, including owning multiple dogs of my own and helping care for neighbors’ dogs. I currently have three dogs and understand how important routines, attention, and communication are for both pets and owners. I treat every dog like my own and pride myself on being dependable, attentive, and respectful of each pet’s individual needs. I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you feel comfortable while you’re away. I currently work part-time, so I have a very flexible schedule and can easily accommodate walks, drop-ins, and any pet care needed throughout the day. I follow each pet’s routine and the owner’s instructions carefully to ensure pets feel safe and comfortable in their home. I provide attentive care, maintain cleanliness, and communicate with updates so owners feel at ease.

“Lee is quiet, calm and reliable. Our dogs are happy when we return from our trip. Lee is tidy and cleans up after himself as we were an overnight booking.”

“Jamie really liked Kimberly from our initial meet and great visit. He was well cared for, Kimberly worked during the day, which quite a distance from my home but still came back every day to spend her lunchtime with him, to get him out and play. Jamie wasn’t feeling well one day and immediately contacted me. She stayed with him and worked from home that day to be with him. Kimberly communicated and sent pictures every day. We found a winner, and I will definitely call upon her again whenever I have to leave my precious boy, who is my world.”

About: I have been around dogs and cats specifically for my whole life having taken care of my own along with family and friends. I strive to take care of your pets just as I’d take care of my own. I am currently in college for the next two years while working as a fitness trainer. I am available outside of training hours as my coursework for school is minimal at the moment. I do not currently accept pets at my own home, though I am able to take care of pets needs most specifically cats and dogs. Whether it is taking your pet for a walk, cleaning up, feeding them, or any other way of taking care of them I emphasize the quality in which I take care of them like they are my own.

About: Hi! I’m Mayson, and animals have always been a huge part of my life. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments, including high-energy and anxious dogs. I also have experience with cats, farm animals, chickens, and other small animals. Along with pet sitting, I also have experience working with animal shelters, which has helped me become comfortable handling a wide variety of animals and personalities. I treat every pet like my own and always make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m reliable, attentive, and love keeping owners updated with pictures and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re gone! Pet care is a regular part of my weekly routine. I work morning shifts from 5:30am–1:00pm, but I still plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for to make sure they get consistent attention, exercise, and care. My work schedule does not affect my ability to do overnight stays. I’m flexible and make time daily for feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins depending on each pet’s needs and routine. I focus on keeping pets comfortable by sticking as closely as possible to their normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions from the owner. I have experience from both pet sitting and working with animal shelters, so I’m confident handling a wide range of personalities and needs. In a client’s home, I also make sure to keep everything clean, respectful, and stress-free so pets feel safe in their own environment.

“Haily did an amazing job with my super needy lab mix. She took him for walks, spent time with him all day and played fetch with him non stop because that’s all he ever wants and won’t stop until you stop lol she did so great and Hercules LOVED her! She gave me updates throughout my time away and made me feel extremely comfortable with her in my home. I would definitely book Haily again and would recommend her to anyone needing someone fun, knowledgeable, and loving to take care of their pets while they’re away! Thank you so much Haily!”

“So glad we found Kristen G! It was the first time we’ve left our beagle rescue overnight and we were anxious about how she might handle us being gone. We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Kristen. She’s the best and sent us pictures daily to put us at ease. Lucky loved her and all the attention she received. I’m not sure she missed us at all! We’ll definitely be calling on Kristen again! ??”

About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. I was raised around them from the time I was 5 years old and started learning how to care for the animals around me. I have a Husky of my own that is my bestest friend and a big baby that is super spoiled. I would love to make your pet feel just as loved with me as they are with you! I work from home so I would be able to provide optimal care for your fur baby. I also have completed vet assistant school and have worked as a volunteer at the humane society multiple times throughout my life. I am currently working remotely so I am able to take care of your pets really whenever. I am pretty open to any schedule that you may have!! I can easily crate your dog if needed, I also have a 4 month old husky puppy to keep them company that is extremely friendly and loves to play.

“Shelly was absoluately amazing. She was caring and went above and beyond to ensure I felt comfortable being away from my fur babies. Despite my initial hesitation leaving them with a stranger, Shelly took all those fears away. I highly recommend her and plan to use her in the future!”

About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! From goats to bearded dragons I’ve cared for everything! I’ve helped raise puppies into adulthood throughout my entire life. Here recently I’ve started taking out fur babies for thirty minutes to an hour for potty breaks and walks! I’ve also started doing overnight visits! I currently do have a full time job but I don’t go in until later in the day typically my work day starts between 12-2 PM and ends at 8 PM this is on the weekdays. On the weekends I have shorter half days where I go in at either 9-10 AM and leave work at 6 PM, sometimes earlier depending on the scheduling. So any time before or after that time frame I am available for all your pet needs, including overnight care taking. I follow every instruction given to me by pet owners. If the pet needs to be on a leash I insure that they are walked and taken outside on one. I also be sure to ask for any allergies a fur baby might have that way I don’t accidentally give them a treat they’re allergic to! I also make sure they are in my eye sight at all times to ensure their safety from their surroundings. Another thing I love to do is send update photos and videos to the owners showing how much fun their babies are having!

About: I am a reliable and flexible pet sitter! I have a soft spot for all kinds of cats and small dogs, and will probably take a million pictures with your fluffy friends! I am currently working 8-5:30 in the Greenwood area and love to care for pets in my free time! If you have any questions about availability, please feel free to message or check my calendar! I send pictures and communicate with you a lot about your pet, to make sure they are getting the best care possible from me. I want them to feel as comfortable as they would be with you!

I have been a trusted companion for neighbors, friends, and family, ensuring their pets are well-fed, walked, and bathed. I am a seasoned emergency veterinary technician and have been part of Veterinary Medicine for 19 years. At present, I am not employed and have ample leisure time to express my affection towards your beloved pets. I am the proud owner of five dogs myself. I am inclined to nurture my pets at my residence, as I am blessed with a few canine companions who are fond of engaging with other dogs. I have a modest fenced-in yard.
