“Kirsten is absolutely wonderful! Our fur babies always come home happy & content! We trust Kirsten, appreciate her TLC, and we have such peace of mind when our boys are with her. Thank you for taking such good care of Jack & Benny ☺️”
“Brennen took such amazing care of our cats! I couldn't have asked for better in any way. She sent pictures daily and communicated so well with us on how they were doing. We will definitely use her services again when we need to travel out of town.”

“Michelle was fantastic with our pup! He had so much fun playing with her sweet dog and friends, and she sent us pictures throughout his stay so we could see how happy he was! She was great at arranging pickup and drop off, to make sure it worked with our schedule too. Will definitely be rebooking when we need.”


“Alise was fantastic!!! She kept us updated with pictures and texts about our boys. When we picked them up after our trip, we could tell the boys were well taken care of and happy. Thank you again for taking great care of Lex and Dexter!!!”

“Lindsey was very responsive to my request for one day of boarding my two dogs while I was in town. She was flexible and accommodating with times. Most importantly the dogs liked her from the start. She has a great set up for the dogs, sent lots of great photos. They would have been fine staying longer and I would definitely ask her to have them again. Thanks so much, Lindsay, for a great experience!”

About: With years of dedicated pet care experience, I am passionate about providing a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for your furry friends. I specialize in caring for dogs of all ages, including puppies and senior dogs, ensuring their unique needs are met with patience and compassion. I have experience training puppies in basic commands and housebreaking, and I am skilled in managing the special care required for senior dogs, including mobility support and medication administration. What sets me apart from other sitters is my genuine love for animals, attention to detail, and commitment to individualized care. I treat each pet as if they were my own, offering plenty of play, cuddles, and stimulation. Rest assured, your dog will be in caring hands, receiving the attention, comfort, and care they deserve while you're away. Pet care is integrated into my daily routine through consistent feeding, play, and hygiene, ensuring my pet feels loved, healthy, and happy. Weekly tasks help maintain their overall well-being and strengthen our bond. In my boarding dog service, safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities. I ensure a secure environment by monitoring pets closely and following health protocols. I build trust through gentle interaction and consistent routines, keeping pet owners updated regularly. The environment is clean, cozy, and filled with opportunities for exercise and play, making dogs feel safe, loved, and stress-free during their stay. I have a fenced in yard and 2 dogs to keep your fur baby company. If your dog is not good around other animals that is no problem with them staying separate. I accommodate to your needs.
“This was my first time using Rover and Jennifer was easy to work with and kept me updated on my fur baby. I appreciated her communication and the different interactions my dog had with her family and pets. I already have a second booking scheduled!”

“Martina, did an amazing job with our Snuggles. She sent pictures and gave us updates throughout his stay. He appeared to be well kept and happy. We will definitely use her services again in the future!”

“Alexis did a marvelous job with BoBo. She provided daily updates with pictures of BoBo enjoying himself. Alexis also made last minute changes to drop BoBo off at home for we could not make it there to pick him up. Alexis is highly recommended!!”

“Cooper was wonderful with Milo and Milo took to cooper quickly. The second we dropped Milo off Cooper was sure to take Milo around the property both inside and outside to ensure Milo adjusted comfortably and knew where everything was. I will definitely be using Cooper in the future when we go out of town again.”

“Shelly was awesome! She sent videos and photos of Maggie and really made me feel good about leaving my pup in her care 🩵 I will 1000% be booking with Shelly again! Thank you again for everything🙌🏻”

“Trey, did an awesome job with watching our babies while we went to see our grand children and son in Kentucky. Trey sent pictures while we were away and updates to let us know everyday how things were going with our fur babies. He took good care of our babies and we definitely will be using him from now on. We were his first customers and did great. Our babies loved Trey as well and were comfortable with him. Trey is so reasonable as well with his prices. If, you are looking for a good, respectful reliable and reasonable price sitter please don't hesitate to give Trey a try. You will be disappointed nor will your fur baby. Trey is located in the Manning area as well. Thanks, Trey again and keep up the good work!”

“Erica was an absolute blessing to our family. We've been hesitant about boarding options for our Goldendoodle - as she's truly part of our family, and we could not have asked for a better first experience with Rover. Erica took amazing care of Ellie, sent us daily reports and photos, and communicated perfectly.”


About: I have experience taking care of a Doberman in the past for 2 years. I’m very familiar with homes with multiple dogs and cats in the house. I’ve also volunteered to walk dogs at a local shelter. I work full time Monday through Friday so the best time for me is the weekend. You can go on your weekend getaway with a peace of mind. I maintain a clean, safe, and pet-friendly environment. I will follow all owner instructions carefully, prioritize each pet’s comfort and security, and ensure constant supervision and responsible care.
“Kayla did an amazing job watching our dog. She sent pictures everyday! She responds to messages quickly. Her house is perfect for a dog, very clean and has a fenced in yard. Highly recommend! Thanks again Kayla!”

Yentl was a life saver for us! We were planning to visit SC for the weekend and found out that the Airbnb didn’t allow dogs. Yentl came through for us and our Baby had a great weekend with her and her fur babies. She made adjustments to accommodate our travel schedule and maintained great communication throughout the weekend. We’ll be using her again the next time we’re visiting SC.
