About: I have had cats and dogs almost all my life. There were 4 or 5 years where I did not have a pet and I missed it. I now have 4 cats who are all rescues. All under the age of 3.5 yrs old. I have often been asked by friends and family to watch their pets while they were away. I also spent a year at a dog boarding facility. My duties included the basics like feeding and walking dogs and even some light grooming, and there were even some overnight stays. There were times there might be 40 dogs to help care for. All sizes, breeds and ages. I work full time Monday to Friday so I will mostly be available on weekends. I could fit in Friday evenings as well. At least for now. I may add to that later on. For my cats, they are strictly indoor. When my son visits, I have a fenced in yard for his dog to run freely in. Our cats have their own water fountain and a dry food dispenser. They get wet food twice a day. They visit the vet as needed. Otherwise we just try to make sure they have a safe environment to thrive in. As for a client's pet, I will follow all instructions per the pet owner. Let me know if there are things I should be aware of while I care for your pet.

“India was AMAZING! She was consistent and left plenty of notes & photos after each visit. We were gone for a long vacation and felt like our cat was in great hands the entire time!!! Added bonus, we arrived back home and she had left a little card with polaroid photos of Lily from the week 🤗💕 10/10 she will be our first pick for a sitter going forward!”

“Our German shepherd (Zeus) is a very anxious, does not like other dogs, does not take treats from people either, some may say aggressive but really, he’s just scared.we needed to find a person that could handle him, in other words know how to take the lead, show him “it’s okay” . We were amazed at how quickly she created a bond with him! Jack has the talent/skill and knowledge for taking care of big anxious dogs and sassy ones too. Recommend 10 out of 10. Now we can take vacations!!”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover based on a 10-acre homestead in Pageland, SC. I specialize in boarding pets at my home, but also offer drop-in visits and dog walking in the surrounding areas. We have a brand-new 6-foot fence enclosing our spacious front yard and part of our backyard — plenty of safe room for pups who love to run, play, or need extra security (even the high-jumpers!). I share my home with five friendly dogs and two cats, so I’m used to a lively household and can easily accommodate pets with a social or independent nature. I’ve had all kinds of animals over the years — from hedgehogs, geckos, and turtles to horses and chickens — so I’m comfortable with everything from common companions to exotic pets and farm animals. Whether your pet needs oral meds, a structured schedule, or just a cozy spot to nap, I can cater to their routine and comfort level. My husband also runs his own business and is home most of the time, so someone is almost always around to provide care and attention. If your pet is used to free-roaming the house, relaxing in a sunny room, or being crated briefly while errands are run, I’m happy to adapt to whatever setup works best. I work full-time as an insurance producer in Monroe, NC from 8–5, Monday through Friday. I’m home all day on weekends, and during the week, my husband is at our homestead full-time and helps provide care and supervision. Since we work as a team, your pets will never be left alone for long periods. I’m also available for morning or evening drop-ins and walks depending on location and schedule! We live on a peaceful 10-acre homestead with a brand-new, secure 6-foot fence enclosing our front and partial backyard — ideal for dogs with energy or jumping skills. I can tailor care to your pet’s needs: crate time if preferred, sunroom space while supervised, or full access to our home if they’re used to roaming. I have five dogs of my own and two cats, so your pet will have plenty of friendly company — or I can safely separate them if your pet prefers solitude.

“Anna, was great Angel was well cared for and Anna went out of her way to make sure angel had everything she needed. I will definitely be booking her again.”

“Riley was so great and communicated with us the whole time. She showed up on time and had our dogs outside playing fetch, which they love so much! We would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs her services and will be using her again in the future!”

“Thank you o much, Melanie is the best ever. She not only took care of my baby but she stay with him a little longer then she had to, to make sure he was ok when she realized he was a little upset and anxious. I will be call Melanie again the next time I’m out of town.”

About: I’ve been taking care of animals my whole life. From fish, to farms, kittens, to cattle, dogs, and beared dragons, I love them all! I can help keep your furry baby safe and comfortable when you aren’t able to! I currently work from home with a very flexible schedule. I have 2 friendly dogs that are neutered and up to date on their shots. I would love to have a furry friend come hang out or I can take a nice break with your baby at your house! We have a large yard on a country road. Our yard is not fenced in. I am diligent to keep our dogs leashed. I have limited neighbors who do not own animals.

“Roxanne was very thorough and attentive. She was always punctual and followed directions, asked questions and I am very happy to have her visit our pups at home. I would highly recommend her!”

Leslie H.

“Olivia treated my kitty like she was her own! She gave me detailed updates and pictures every day that made me feel really happy my cat was in good hands.”

About: I have worked at various doggy daycares over the past 5 years, where I monitored and handled up to 150 dogs at once. I bathed dogs, trimmed their nails, fed them, cared for injuries and sicknesses, walked them, played with them, trained them, and medicated them every day, and have firsthand experience breaking up fights. I have over a year’s worth of management experience, which meant making decisions catered to each dogs’ needs everyday. I have a wide range of knowledge on dogs and dog breeds. I have pet sitting experience, which includes cats, and I have also worked at an aquarium and with non releasable birds of prey. I have a wide range of experience, from exotics, birds, reptiles, rodents, and even to marsupials. I spent 4 years studying ecology and evolutionary biology at the University of Colorado Boulder, so I have a general biology background as well. I am doing school online, so I have plenty of time to fill with furry, scaly, and feathery friends! I am used to early mornings and the time that goes into animal care. I have a fenced yard at home for my two dogs to run around and play in. I love enrichment, training, cuddling, foraging tasks, smelling games, fetch, etc. for all dogs and animals. All animals deserve an enriching environment full of a lot of variety, play, and healthy challenges. They deserve adventures, love, and genuine, heartfelt connection and care with other animals and with their humans. I will let those principles reflect in my work for your furry friend!

About: My experiences in the military, working as a nurse, training and competing as an athlete, parenting, life experiences, time spent working with animals, combined with my values are what makes me different. I’ve had pets of every kind for over 30 years. I’ve completed several training courses for dogs. I live with my daughter and our Dane, Roxie. Dogs get lots of exercise and love at my house! My daughter loves entertaining our guests by playing ball, tug or giving belly rubs so they are more comfortable here. In addition to time in the fenced yard, I take them for walks or runs at least twice each day. I follow all instructions I’m given. We only use positive reinforcement and patience for training. I have experience administering meds. I send lots of updates so owners know how their pet is doing. I have experience with all breeds and temperaments. I can trim nails and bathe most pets. When we watch dogs I’m in the house the majority of the time. When multiple dogs are with us, they aren’t left unsupervised at all. We feed morning and evening and will do noon feeding for puppies. We offer treats and dogs are welcome on the couch or various dog beds. I have a fenced yard and a safe neighborhood for walks. The dogs have plenty of room inside to play as well. I’m a runner so active dogs get plenty of exercise. I double check leashes and harnesses before walks. I keep food off the counter so no one gets into anything that could make them sick. My pets are UTD on all vaccines and take a monthly flea, tick and heart worm preventative.

About: I’ve never been without dogs or cats my entire life. I have 14 dogs right now. 2 chiweenie’s, 2 German Shepherds, 2 Huskys, 5 Australian Shepherds, 1 Pit Bull, and 2 Cane Corso. They all get along and love playing with new faces! I assure you, you won’t be disappointed in my services. I am currently a house wife. I have free time pretty much any day while I take care of my own fur babies. I’m available morning through evening. I have a great potty routine that my dogs are currently on. I have anywhere from small dogs to big dogs in my household so your fur baby will have a lot of company. I can cage your dogs if needed or my own for your babies comfort.

“Above and beyond! The best pet sitter we’ve ever had!! Can’t wait to book again!! Thank you sooo much!!! ❤️❤️❤️”

Kelsey W.

“Brittany was the perfect sitter for Tanner! She was very patient and loving with him, and communicated with us well! Each visit was followed up by a thorough and honest summary so we didn't have to worry about how Tanner was doing at all while we were gone. She's reliable and went above and beyond my expectations. We will definitely be booking her again in the future. Thank you Brittany!!”

About: I offer pet sitting and walking for all breeds and sizes and energy levels. My previous pet care experience includes pet store, professional pet boarding, bathing and daycare, and several years offering pet/house sitting for out of town friends, relatives and co-workers. I share my home with 3 dogs and 3 mini pigs. I am currently employed at a dog rescue, and am an active volunteer with our local wildlife rescue, and am certified in pet CPR and First Aid. While I will never pass up an opportunity to play with a puppy, I have a soft spot for senior and special needs dogs. I can administer medication if needed as well. I also provide sitting services for other species, so if your pup has a cat, bunny or reptile sibling that won't be a problem.

About: My Boxer, Bailey, loves having friends over to play. Pet owner my entire life. I try to anticipate pet's needs and keep them busy and happy. Your pet/pets will be a part of our family for a few days. My teenaged son will assist with your pet's care. I have crates in the guest area if your pet needs quiet time. Our dog will remain outside if needed for the care of your pet. I have cared for hamsters and fish as well as dogs and cats. My family is allergic to cats, but I can check in on your cat in your home. I can walk your pet individually after they play with my dog. I can administer medications and have a separate sleeping area for your pets with or without a crate. My family and I are available to be with your pet in our home setting. Your pets will have a separate room with or without a crate during any short errands that I may need to run. My teenaged son will assist with the care of your pet/pets. Your pets will have individual attention during part of the day with walks on my quiet neighborhood circle. Feeding time will be individual as well. They will enjoy play with my dog during supervised play time in my fenced back yard.

About: I currently have 2 dogs and 3 cats, and I have had fur babies my whole life. I currently work part-time at a doggy daycare, and take care of about 100+ dogs a day. I also have had experience dog sitting as well as cat sitting in the past! I work part-time currently, but am cutting back on my hours, so I will be available a lot of the time to care for puppies and not so puppies and even cats. I also am on summer break until August from school, so that isn’t a factor either. Currently I spend a lot of time playing with my own pups at home, but we also have them crate trained, and e-collar trained, so that is something that I am completely comfortable with if that is something you have in your home!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I can remember. I’ve always had at least one by my side. We now have a large fenced in yard, and plenty of dogs to ensure your fur baby goes home to you completely worn out! My wife is a stay at home dog mom.! So they will get all the attention in the world. And you’ll get plenty of updates throughout the stay I have a fenced yard, and plenty of dogs to go with it. They all love new dogs coming in the house and playing with them.
