“Lexi is a great sitter! She is so organized and on top of everything, it made us feel much safer leaving her to watch our cats. She was so sweet to our shy girls. Definitely recommend her!”

“Christina is trustworthy and caring. I felt completely at easy leaving my 100lb baby in her care. It is clear she loves animals and is more than capable of meeting any requirements or specifications you and your pet have. 10/10!!”


About: I've grown up taking care of cats and dogs. My professional pet sitting experience includes small and large dog breeds, as well as cats. I have a background in animal science and care so I am the ideal sitter for pets with high medical needs and elderly pets. I am willingly to take dogs on long walks or runs, and take them to the park. I am not certified, but I can do basic training (sit, stay, etc) and leash training. I currently work from home, so I am available at home 24/7. Great for pets that are potty training or need multiple play times a day. I abide with the rules and schedule of the owner. Not required, but I encourage a meet and greet for first time clients for care instructions and to ask any questions.
“Natalie was great! This was my first time booking with Rover and she was super helpful. She was wonderful with my dogs, made sure to send pictures, and kept me up to date with everything going on! We would definitely love to use her again in the future!”

“Aaron was so wonderful! The dogs loved him right away. He sent us pictures and updated us on how they were doing each time he came. Loved him. Would absolutely recommend!”

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.
About: Hi, I’m Sam! I live in NE Columbia near Sandhills, and caring for dogs isn’t just something I do—it’s truly part of who I am. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, breeds, and personalities, from tiny puppies to giant seniors. I’m also the South Carolina Manager for Daisy Bean Rescue, where I’ve helped countless dogs find their forever homes. That means your pup will always be in the hands of someone who knows how to keep them safe, happy, and loved. I work from home and my schedule is pretty flexible and your dog would almost never be unattended. I can take frequent breaks to make sure your dog is well looked after and not alone. I want to care for your pet just exactly the way you would if you were available. I strictly follow all care instructions and make them as comfy as possible until you return.

“Sean was so good with my dog (Haylee) and my cat (Chili). They loved Sean. When Sean came to return my key, Haylee was so excited to see Sean. Sean sent me a lot of photos & kept me informed as to how my babies were doing. I would definitely use Sean the next time I go out of town.”

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.
“Somiya was absolutely wonderful and took such good care of my dog. She sent photos every day, always showed up on time and made everything so simple. Would definitely recommend!!”

About: I have had pets my entire life! My family currently has 3 dogs and 4 cats, but we’ve also cared for guinea pigs, rabbits, and ferrets! We foster kittens and puppies often, so I am familiar with the caretaking of very young animals too. I am around all summer and have lots of availability to help you with your pets! Whether it is while you’re away on vacation or having a busy day, I would love to provide some help to you and love to your pets! I am very responsible and trustworthy and will follow directions as given. My biggest goal is to keep you and your pet happy and will do whatever I need to provide that!
“Dominic is very reliable and took care of our pet as if it was her very own. We really appreciate you for taking care of Bella while we were away and look forward to booking with you again very soon.”

State Park pet parents share their Rover experiences
Aaron gave my friend, my cat, the spa treatment - now he is raving about Aaron at every moment. His food was on time and in proper quantities and the eating area cleaned, all water (fountains) full and never empty, and hotel like liter boxes - hotel like cleaned. He wants the same treatment from me now. I received timely updates, and pictures from Aaron of various aspects of his care - and one or two photos of my cat, when he decided to make a showing (he likes to hide on occasion.) Now my friend expects the same treatment - from me- he tried to wake me up today ... I just pulled the blanket over my head. I will definitely submit my cat to the 'spa treatment' in the future from Aaron.
