Top rated Southern Shops pet sitters

“Jonathan was the absolute best. Truly. Was extremely reliable, flexible, and caring for my young cat while I was gone. I’d recommend him to anyone looking for a kitty sitter!”


“She was great with sky and I will continue to have her in my top 2 for sky’s dog walks. Her and sky have bonded so well and she’s patient and loving to my fur baby 😃”


“Mikayla was amazing! She took the best care of our boys while we were on vacation! So thankful for her eagerly accepting our request on such short notice. Mikayla made herself available to meet our needs. She followed all instructions we gave regarding how to care for our Danes. She made us feel comfortable in knowing they were in good hands while we were away. Very responsive. Sent daily reports and notified us when necessary. Mikayla is so sweet and friendly. Our Danes loved her! Will definitely rebook and recommend her to all our friends! ?”


“Awesome pet sitter! She sent pictures and updates of my boys at every visit. She even had my husky talking to her! Overall great experience.”


“Haylee is great with Sassy! She listens to me when I say what’s going on with Sassy from week to week (re: learning to walk on a leash, etc) & she always works on that issue when she is with Sassy.”


“Alyssa was fantastic with our animals! She spent time with our dogs outside and made sure they were happy and well behaved while we were gone. She also took great care of our cat, who is usually skittish but loved Alyssa! We will absolutely use her services again.”


“2nd time having Meghan watch my pups, they love being taken care of by her. And I love all the pics she sends me of them to know they are being well taken care of.”


“Kiana is so dependable. She was able to accept our last minute booking and despite the very short notice, she managed to take care of my 2 furbabies.”


“As always, we feel we are leaving our “little boy” in the best of hands! Dee really take great care of Patches & we know that he is getting as much love (and probably just a little more spoiled!) as we would. I would recommend Dee to anyone who loves their pets & wants the very best! Thank you Dee!!”


“Harriette was amazing! I’m new to the area and was looking for a pet sitter and I’m so happy I came across Rover—which led me to Harriette! Someone who keeps in touch and sends photos and updates about my cat when I’m away is HUGE, and Harriette was someone who did just that. I know Dexter is in good hands with Harriette and plan to book her again for all of our times away from home!”

“Victoria does a great job with Riley. She always does what is asked. Riley enjoys her company. I highly recommend Victoria to take care of your fur babies!”


“Elizabeth did a fabulous job caring for our dogs! Updates were thorough and everything was exactly as we expected. Would love to use her again sometime.”


About: I’ve taken care of my personal pets and a few around the neighborhood for years. I am reliable with walking, feeding schedules, baths, and play time! I am a rising senior at Wofford College with lots of free time in the afternoons so any time with your pup would make me happy! I am flexible with time. I have a fenced in yard for my animals however some of my neighbors and clients do not. For them, I take the pets out on a leash unless specified otherwise, just to ensure nothing goes wrong!

“Emily did a wonderful job taking care of my pups Duke and Daisy. They both absolutely loved her, and she is so natural with animals. Daisy can be shy, but Emily stole her heart with pets and frisbee throws. Not a thing was missed or forgotten, and I received adorable pictures while being away. I needed a last minute sitter (quite seriously 15 hours before my trip), and she responded immediately, even taking the time to drive to my house for a meet and greet once I booked the visits. Thank you for your time and kindness, Emily! ☻”


“Amanda was amazing! She did great with our 2 fur babies and took us on very last minute. We are so grateful to have found her and will definitely be using her again!”


“Ayaka was great! She sent many pictures and videos which gave us piece of mind! Will definitely use her services again!”

“Excellent service. My animals loved her. Very caring.!!!”


“Lindsay has given my little one comfort and love. She is very communicative and such a wonderful animal lover. I have repeated with Lindsay because she is the best of the best I’ve come across. Thank you Lindsay!”


“Sarah was amazing with our pup! He loves her so much and she made sure he had no accidents the whole visit. She was so great about keeping us updated on how he was doing and sending photos to keep us posted! We would totally recommend her to anyone looking for a sweet and knowledgeable pet sitter. ☺️”


“We recently moved to a new area and had the worst time trying to find someone to watch our dogs. We had so many interviews lined up and all of which would be blown off by other rover sitters until we met Sophia. Sophia was prompt with responding, showed up on time for the meet & greet, asked questions about the dogs and their routines, she was truly a godsend. When Sophia watched our crew she sent daily photos, gave us a report on how they were doing each day & even extended her stay with them on a last minute notice. I would HIGHLY recommend Sophia to anyone and hope to use her again in the near future!”
