Personalized care for your dog or cat - Goldmine
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Goldmine
“Our dogs just had another great stay with Donna (& Jon). This was just one of a number of bookings, 2 of them lasted for the entire week, over the last few months. All stays have been exceptional. Donna is consistent in the excellent quality of care, her communication via text, Rover messages and by sending pictures during every stay. Our dogs appear truly happy every time we drop them off. They know that they'll be loved and sufficiently spoiled at their 'home away from home'. We're pleased to have found Donna and look forward to continuing to be a very satified repeat customer.”

Our pup was immediately comfortable with her and was a happy tired but seemed not at all stressed when he came home. I would highly recommend her and we will definitely book again!”
“Nicole and everyone did such a great job taking care of my dog and kitten! The kitten I literally found a week before I had to leave on my trip and she didn't mind taking him in too. I know my dog can be lots of work. She shared pictures every day which I absolutely love. I'll definitely be using her again! She also runs a daycare, so I'm glad my dog had plenty of friends to play with. Thanks again!”
“Cassandra and her family were great. This was our first time leaving out Boris in 4.5 years and I think we experienced more separation anxiety than he did. Cassandra kept us informed with photos and comments the whole weekend. I highly recommend her and will use her again”
About: I’ve been a pet sitter for more than 25 years. I specialize in senior care for dogs as well as young adults . My dogs are both rescues . I’m currently semi-retired and your pet is my priority. I am available holidays and weekend's. I have two small dogs, they are gentle and like other dogs. I have a fully fenced yard, and a doggie door leading to my backyard. I can crate your dog if that is what you prefer.
“Bailey was the first sitter I booked on Rover and I am SO grateful for her kindness and flexibility! She made me feel safe and comfortable to trust her with my fur baby. She sent updates and pictures of my girl daily and responded quickly to my messages. I am so sad her availability is limited, but I would 100% recommend Bailey to everyone! Thank you so much!”
“Alexandra was amazing with our little boy! She was so patient and took such good care of him while we were away. They went on lots of trips to the park and we got lots of updates. We will definitely be back and highly recommend!”

“We had to go out of town for a day and are very particular about where we have Fergie and Ella stay while we’re away. Roman and Justne made us and the dogs feel comfortable from the start and they sent updates and pictures to put us at ease. The dogs seemed to enjoy the stay with them and they accommodated some scheduling changes. Would definitely book again in the future.”
“We were extremely pleased with Kimi taking care of our dog. We appreciated the regular updates she gave us along with pictures. We also appreciated her willingness to work with us when the stay needed to be extended. We would definitely recommend her!”

About: I had multiple dogs all of my life and have taken care of horses and barn cats. Love all animals and want to make sure that they are doing amazing while you are away. I have pet sitted on and off over the years for friends and even flew to Las Vegas to petsit for an extended weekend. I’m currently working full time but can do late night drop ins, walks and am available any time on the weekends. Typically on the weekends I am free/flexible for any time, except the few times I’m out of town. Before letting pets out in fenced areas I double check gates are closed and latched before letting out. For any pets that are walked I ensure that they are leashed before heading out the door and do not take the leash off until inside with the door closed. I have an escape artist of myself at home so I know what to look for. I can easily place your pet in a crate before leaving if that is necessary.
“Tyler did a wonderful job caring for our kitties. I had set up an automatic feeder to give the cats dry food (Tyler was giving them wet food at his visits) and the cats toppled it and knocked it over. The next day, they clawed into the sealed bag of food I’d left out. Both times, Tyler graciously cleaned it up and helped me devise a way to keep the cats from doing it again. He checked in daily and sent occasional photos and videos, which my kids loved. I will definitely use him again!”
“Lashanda recently stayed at our home and took care of our two Ragdolls cats. She is an excellent setter, our two cats thought of her as family. Lashanda communicates very well with lots of updates and pictures which made us very comfortable on our vacation. We highly recommend her, she is definitely a 5 star setter.”
About: I am a young energetic person who has had animals in my family since I came into this world. I have been animal sitting for friends and family since I can remember and have cared for all different types of animals. I throughly enjoy time with animals and wouldn't trade that time for anything. I truly feel like it’s healing for the soul! Not only do I care for dogs immensely, but I am an all around animal/critter/reptile lover. I have cared for dogs, cats, bearded dragons, leopard geckos, rabbits, kangaroos you name it! I hope you consider me, not only am I sure I can provide an exceptional service, but it would be my absolute pleasure.

I can do drop in visits in the evening throughout the week and multiple visits starting Fridays-Sunday. I can tailor my service based off what you feel your pet needs! The only non-negotiable is there will be lots of belly rubs and all around love.
“This was my first time using this service and Beverly was amazing! Sent pictures and followed the instructions I gave, I had one less worry while I was out of town. She will definitely have a repeat client because I will definitely book her again!”
About: I had pets as a child. As an adult we became a dog family 10 years ago. He’s stubborn and way smarter than I am. I’ve learned so much loving on our Smitty. I’m patient and love to see their personalities shine. I work from home so I have a pretty flexible schedule. I would be happy to discuss your personal needs and work that into my day. I walk my dogs on leash on our property. For you I’d do what your pet is accustomed to. I’m very flexible and able to work with what works for you best.

About: I’m a fun loving dog sitter. I love playing with dogs, walking with them, and giving them tummy rubs. Being lazy is another quality I’m good at when me and the dog(s) don’t have anything better to do. I really do love animals. Their like fluffy teddy bears. Dogs deserve all the love and attention in the world. Weather they act crazy or not If the dog misbehaved then I would lightly pop it on the nose and say no but if the dog was nice then I’d give it tummy rubs
“Laycie did a great job taking care of the outdoor cats, including extra food for a new momma. She also watered plants (we're in a hot, dry spell), which I'm grateful for. Will definitely book her again!”
About: I’ve had both dogs and cats my whole life! My current pet, Gus, is a pomeranian-bichon. Im experienced in dog sitting and training. Fun fact, i’ve also had fancy mice before! I’d love to ease your mind and give your babies the care they need when you’re unable to.
“Kristi was great! She communicated with me, sent pictures and seem to positively relate to our babies. We have old cats and one requires medication twice a day. Some sitters we have had were not always able to give her the medication. Betsy let her do it without too much trouble.”
“Alexis was awesome! One of my pups is a diabetic and it was a huge relief to find someone with the knowledge and ability to care for him and give him his shot of insulin. Highly recommend Alexis!”

About: As a lifelong dog lover and current online college student, I offer a highly flexible, work-from-home schedule that ensures your pet will have constant supervision, regular bathroom breaks, and company throughout the day. What sets me apart is my ability to adapt to your pet's specific stage of life; I am fully equipped to handle the high-energy demands, potty training, and crate routines of young puppies, but I'm equally patient and observant when it comes to the quiet environments and precise medication schedules required by senior dogs. Ultimately, I focus on routine consistency, molding my daily schedule entirely around your dog’s normal habits to keep their anxiety low and make them feel right at home. I work from home and stay around town, so caring for your fur-babies is no trouble at all! If they do well with car rides, I am more than happy to bring them along to run any errands or to the ball fields! I have a large yard, plenty of room inside, two sweet and playful dogs to keep them company, and a 6 year old boy who loves puppy cuddles and all the play time he can get!
“Chayna is amazing. Her dogs and mine had a great time together. Chayna has a beautiful property for the dogs to have fun. I highly recommend!!! My Bo was ready for a nap after his stay :)...”
“Our dog Leo loved his short stay with Madison on Thanksgiving Day. Communication was great and she was wonderful with Leo. He had a great time and would definitely recommend Madison.”

About: I have years of hands-on pet care experience, and I’ve had dogs in my home for most of my life. What sets me apart is my calm, reliable approach and genuine love for caring for pets of all ages. I’m comfortable with puppies, adult dogs, and seniors, and I understand how to meet each stage’s needs—from basic training and routine structure to gentle care and patience with older pets. I’m committed to keeping pets safe, comfortable, and happy, and I treat every animal like my own. Clear communication, dependability, and attention to detail are always my priorities. Pet care is a regular part of my life and something I prioritize every day. I schedule my time around feeding, play, and attention for pets, making sure they get consistent care and companionship. On a weekly basis, I maintain clean living spaces, rotate toys, and spend quality time with each pet to keep them happy and engaged. Caring for animals is not just a task—it’s a routine I enjoy and take seriously, ensuring pets feel safe, loved, and well-cared-for at all times. I provide a safe, clean, and loving home environment for pets, with regular feeding, playtime, social interaction, and cozy spaces for rest and ultimate comfort.
About: I began working in professional dog boarding facilities at 16 years old, and animals have been a huge part of my life and career ever since. Over the years, I’ve worked in veterinary care, grooming, corporate doggy daycares, and professional dog training, giving me experience with dogs of all ages, breeds, personalities, and needs. I have been professionally training dogs for the past 12 years and also trial and compete with my own personal dogs. I’ve worked with everyone from young, energetic puppies to seniors who require extra patience, medication, mobility assistance, or individualized care. Many of the clients I work with today have been trusting me with their dogs for 5+ years, which is something I’m incredibly proud of. Building long-term relationships with both dogs and their owners is one of my favorite parts of what I do. My background allows me to recognize changes in behavior, health, and comfort and provide a level of care that goes beyond simply feeding and letting a dog outside. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my priorities. Pet care is a big part of my daily life, not something I squeeze into my schedule. I work from home and am home full-time, so I’m able to give the dogs consistent attention, supervision, exercise, enrichment, and rest throughout the day. My schedule is built around their needs, with regular potty breaks, walks, meals, playtime, and individualized care. I keep my schedule intentionally flexible so each pet gets the attention and routine they need while they’re in my care. My property is completely fenced, offering ample space for your pup to frolic and play freely! Indoors, they'll receive the same love and care as if they were my own pet. Unless you specify otherwise, your dog is more than welcome to join me on the bed or sofa during our downtime. Because they're truly part of the family.
About: I have years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. My background includes EDD K9 handling, obedience training, working bird hunting dogs, and caring for high-energy working breeds that require structure and exercise. I live on 14.9 acres in Madison County, Georgia, providing dogs with a safe, spacious environment to play, explore, and relax. I understand canine behavior, body language, and the importance of maintaining routines that help dogs feel comfortable while their owners are away. Whether your dog needs active playtime, supervised socialization, or a calm place to stay, I provide dependable, attentive care as if they were my own. Pet care is my full-time profession, not a side job. My daily routine is built around the dogs in my care, ensuring they receive attention, exercise, potty breaks, feeding, and supervision throughout the day. Living on 14.9 acres in Madison County, I provide a safe, spacious environment where dogs can enjoy structured outdoor time and plenty of individual attention. Whether your dog is energetic and loves to play or prefers a calm, relaxed atmosphere, I tailor their care to their specific needs. My goal is to give owners peace of mind knowing their dogs are being cared for by someone whose primary focus is their safety, comfort, and happiness. Dogs enjoy a structured daily schedule that includes supervised outdoor exercise, potty breaks, feeding according to their owner’s instructions, enrichment activities, and plenty of one-on-one interaction. Each dog has access to a clean, secure run for rest and quiet time, while also receiving multiple opportunities throughout the day for exercise and socialization when appropriate. Because we accept only a limited number of dogs, we can closely monitor behavior, appetite, activity levels, and overall well-being. This personalized approach helps reduce stress, creates a calmer environment, and allows us to provide the level of care and attention that dogs deserve while their families are away. Our goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and structured home-away-from-home experience where every dog is treated like a valued guest rather than just another boarding reservation.
“This was the first “home” visit for Brandy. Roman and Jasmine made us feel secure in leaving her for several hours. This was also our first Rover experience. It is much more expensive than daycare in Charlotte but at least the option was available.”
About: Well Anderson County I’m a nice guy with some time on his hands who lives in the perfect spot to suit almost any dogs needs. I can care for almost every activity level and have ample space on 7 acres, parks, or the many areas in and around Anderson County. I am also able to pick up and drop off for a small fee and have a truck so no dog too big. Overall, they will have a safe place to stay when you need. Whatever your needs I can usually accommodate. I currently work full-time but I have a flexible and lenient schedule. I am available most of the day for the dogs and have a near by dog park by Mills that if ok with the owner I can take them to, if not I have Mills park in my back yard for endless shaded walking. I have a fully fenced yard with 6 foot privacy fence. I do own a miniature and standard schnauzer that will keep your pet company. Yard is about 1/4 acre so they will have plenty of room to run around in.
About: I am an experienced pet sitter and have been an animal advocate for over forty years. As a vet tech, I can also care for pets with special needs. I am retired and can devote my time and attention to caring for people’s pets. Our own pets are very welcoming to other dogs and cats. We have a large fenced-in backyard and a home with many dog beds and crates are available if that’s preferred. All pets are treated as members of our family. I am also available to visit pets in their own home, once or twice a day as needed.
About: I have 10 years of pet care experience including dog training, walking, dog sitting, grooming and more. I specialize in high energy, high drive, difficult to handle dogs, but I’m more than happy to work with the chill pups too! I currently own 3 Belgian Malinois and compete in a variety of dog sports. I’d love to care for your dogs and will treat them like they’re my own. Caring for your pets is my full time job, so I am able to dedicate all of my attention towards your pets. I spend most of my free time training my dogs as well as working with client dogs. I have several safety protocols in place such as using high quality leashes while on walks, and not allowing interaction between my pets and yours. I love sending updates to owners frequently! My experience in dog training and behavior can help notice subtle changes in mood or health for the special needs pups.

About: For as long as I remember, animals have been the only constant defining piece of the puzzle that is my life. I have personally raised dogs, cats, horses, rabbits, birds, hamsters, goats and a lamb! Training, raising and saving animals gives me hope and a purpose. My experience goes all the way back to my first dog at the age of 9, who passed at the old age of 16.5years old in 2025. I have ridden and worked with horses for many years, as well as started my dog training journey in my later teens, turning it into my profession ever since. My goal is to provide top quality care to pet owners, as I understand the trust it takes to leave your pets behind and do not take that responsibility lightly. I know how I want my animals treated should I ever have to leave them, so I strive to give that same (picky) care to other owners. I have boarded & trained dogs for over 4 years and plan to open a boarding facility for both canines & equines in the future. I am a stay at home mom so I will usually be home more than 90% of the time to spend with your pet, with three dogs of my own, one cat and our farm animals. Both my inside dogs are crate trained, house trained, and one of them has his Canine Good Citizen Cert. the other is a young female working on her mannerisms but very friendly. Our third pup is our outside guardian livestock dog. We have four beautiful acres for lots of play and exercise. Most of the acreage is fenced, and our house is gated off. I am able to crate dogs if necessary, but am home most of the time so crating usually only at night time if applicable. They will be able to take as many potty breaks needed, get lots of play time, of course attention, and have access to water all day long (unless otherwise specified). Note* If they are not good with cats, that is not a problem as mine stays separated from any dogs beside my own.
About: We don't have children of our own so our dogs are our family and we'll treat your dogs like family. My husband and I have taken care of dogs since we were little. We love going for walks and just spending time with them. Your dogs will receive lots of love and attention while your gone. I'm currently working from home full-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups. When my husband gets home from working the day shift, we're always in the back yard doing activities with the dogs. We have a huge fenced in back yard and three wonderful fur babies to keep your dog company. We don't let the dogs outside in the yard unsupervised. We can also crate your dog if it's needed.
“She worked with our schedule and last minute changes. Our furbabiesloves her an she ia patient and attentive. MY furbabies love their walks We love Kirsten's energy and would definitely rebook again”

About: I began working at Radnor Veterinary Hospital as a Boarding Attendant, where I cared for a variety of animals, primarily dogs, and was responsible for feeding, walking, medicating, and monitoring their daily needs. I then worked as a Veterinary Assistant at the Exotic and Small Animal Hospital of PA, where I gained extensive hands-on experience with both small animals and exotic pets. I assisted with appointments, treatments, medications, laboratory work, and monitoring patients before, during, and after procedures. This experience taught me how to recognize changes in an animal’s behavior and health, safely handle animals, and provide attentive care for pets with different needs. I am currently a pre-veterinary student at Clemson University pursuing my passion for becoming a veterinarian. I especially enjoy caring for rabbits and dogs, but honestly just love being around animals. I have classes regularly; however, in the afternoon and later evenings, I am usually free almost every day! I try to be really flexible; however, school does create some constraints. I make sure to locate the nearest vet in case of an emergency, keep a close eye on your pet during the whole time, and record if I see anything unusual.

About: I’ve been caring for pets for about 5 years now, from dogs to frogs! Some of my own and some from others I give each animal the love and care that they deserve. I love being outdoors in any climate whether that be hiking, jogging, or simply sitting in a field. I’d be more than happy to burn some energy with your fur baby! I work part time during the night which leaves lots of free time during the mornings to walk, feed, and check in on your pets. I occasionally have classes during the week, so I’ll already be up bright and early! I will provide your pets with loving attention, frequent walks and bathroom breaks, even playtime. I am sure to create a safe environment for your fur babies, if that means a mini play date or introduction session before sitting I am down for it all. I will stay loyal to the given instructions with proper feeding times and administer medication if/when needed.
“Amazing! That's one word to sum up Kristi's visits with my sweet beagle/ lab mix. She was on time, followed through with my instructions, and very attentive to my fur baby. He liked her immediately upon arrival and trusted her. Kristi is very good at what she does and I'm definitely using her again and again! ❤️ 🐕 🦴”
About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 10 years, and taking care of pets has always been something I genuinely love. From a young age, I’ve had experience caring for animals and understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets when you can’t be there. I’m dependable, attentive, and treat every pet like they’re my own. During drop-in visits, I’m happy to provide fresh food and water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, cuddles, and plenty of attention. I’m also happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and any specific instructions you leave for me. I know every animal has their own personality and needs, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease knowing your pets are in good hands while you’re away Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine. I have a flexible schedule and am available for pet care Thursday through Monday, including weekends. I’m not available on Tuesdays or Wednesdays, but I can dedicate plenty of time on my available days to making sure each pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I’m dependable and happy to work around each pet’s individual routine and schedule. I care for every pet as if they were my own. In a client’s home, I follow their normal routine and instructions closely, making sure they have fresh food and water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I’m respectful of their home and always make sure everything is clean and secure before I leave. I also understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their personality, needs, and comfort level so they feel safe and happy while their owner is away.

About: I have been taking care of pets for our entire lives. i have experience with dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes (as well as reptiles, fish, and plants!). i have been pet-sitting for colleagues and friends for a while now as well as caring for three cats at home. i have previously cared for cats and dogs of all ages, including animals with special needs and medication schedules. I have a fairly flexible schedule at my day job, and will coordinate around your schedule to make sure I can meet every pet's needs. I would prefer to care for pets in your home, as they're likely to be more comfortable that way (and my cats will too). However, I can make exceptions in special cases. I do prefer to have an initial meet and greet with pets and people to make sure everyone's comfortable. For house-sitting, I goal is to make sure your pet(s) are as comfortable as possible, so I will schedule my workday to be there with them as often as possible.
“Pepper took such great care of Murphy! It was obvious from the updates and photos that Murphy was happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. Pepper was reliable, communicative, and treated Murphy like family. I had complete peace of mind while I was away. I would absolutely book with Pepper again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!”
“Madison did an excellent job taking care of my dog! She sent me pictures throughout his stay, which gave me peace of mind, and he looked so happy and comfortable with her. I really appreciate the wonderful care she gave him and would absolutely recommend her!”
About: I’m a fun loving dog sitter. I love playing with dogs, walking with them, and giving them tummy rubs. Being lazy is another quality I’m good at when me and the dog(s) don’t have anything better to do. I really do love animals. Their like fluffy teddy bears. Dogs deserve all the love and attention in the world. Weather they act crazy or not If the dog misbehaved then I would lightly pop it on the nose and say no but if the dog was nice then I’d give it tummy rubs
