“She's a great dog sitter. My dog Bella had a blast the set up for the dogs are nice looks like a doggie hotel. And I believe she cleaned Bella because she came home smelling good because we were going to get her groomed after her sitting was over but she came home smelling good. 2 thumbs up to Ms. Juli I give her a 10 star rating. I will be using her on a regular basis.”
“Rob was great with our girls. This was an acclimation visit to familiarize. This family is very understanding of special needs & requests. Our pups were well taken care of. We believe we have found our care team.”
“Monica and her husband were the absolute best!! During our meet and greet I immediately felt comfortable with them. I have had a previous meet and greet experience where I felt uncomfortable within a few minutes and felt pressured to choose that home. Monica let Peyton become comfortable with her and her husband before introducing their fur baby. We stayed long enough to ensure everyone would be a good fit for each other. I received videos and pictures while Peyton was there and I could tell he was receiving plenty of love and cuddles whoch was very important to me. My fur baby did not seem stressed or uncared for when I picked him up. If you want a good home for your fur baby and piece of mind while you are away, I would definitely recommend Monica. You will not regret your choice.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I highly recommend her! She did an amazing job taking care of Bruno and made the whole experience stress-free. She was patient, caring, and treated him like he was her own. I could tell Bruno was comfortable and happy, which means a lot. Great communication, reliable, and someone I’d definitely trust with him again!”
“Margaret & Tom always treat our boys great. Our Lab needed some medication while we were gone & Margaret went out of her way to run by our house and pick it up and administer it. Our boys were wonderfully taken care of and we didn’t have to worry about anything while we were out of the State. Will leave them again and again in their care. 10/10 every time.”
“Thank you, James, for taking care of my precious Oreo at the last minute. He kept sending me pictures of my dog. I had no problem leaving her with him, and I hope to use James's services again in the future. He has a great environment for pet care and a large yard for them to play and run around in.”
“Lillie had a great time! She conked out in the car as soon as we picked her up. Brittany sent us status reports and photos, which alleviated our worries about leaving Lillie behind. Great experience.”
“Kimberly was great with Brandy. Brandy has separation anxiety but it didn't seem like it while she was with Kimberly. I received pictures and videos of Brandy. I am very well pleased and will be using her services again.”
“Morgan took great care of my dog! She kept me up to date at all times and sent me many pictures as evidence that my dog was having a lot of fun! Whenever I need someone to care for my dog, Morgan will be the first on the list!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and have always loved helping care for them. From feeding and walking to playtime and giving them attention, caring for animals has always been something I genuinely enjoy.

In a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully to maintain their pet’s normal routine.

About: What sets me apart in cat care is my veterinary background combined with a lifetime of hands-on animal experience, including growing up on a farm caring for livestock. I understand that cats require a different approach — patience, observation, and respect for their boundaries. I’m experienced in administering medications (oral, topical, and injectable), monitoring subtle changes in behavior or appetite, and supporting senior cats with mobility or chronic conditions. I’m also comfortable caring for kittens who need structured supervision and enrichment during critical developmental stages. From litter box monitoring and enrichment play to recognizing early signs of illness, I provide attentive, low-stress care tailored to each cat’s unique personality and needs.
“If I could give more stars I would. Jenna was great. This was my first time ever using Rover. She went above and beyond visiting our 3 cats, two of which are a bit needy emotionally.

Don’t be afraid to use Jenna as your pets caregiver. She will care for them as if they were her own.”

As much as I love dogs, people are asking if their dogs can sleep in my room and on my bed. For the safety of all dogs that are boarding, I require that they are in a crate or in a kennel at night.
“Madison was extremely helpful with my Maverick. Not only did she accommodate pick up and drop off times, but she was also able to sense Maverick was overwhelmed on the first day, and took the time to get to know him. By the second day, he was much more relaxed with her and Benji, so I know he was in good hands. Would definitely recommend and book again. Thanks, Madison!”
“Juli has been great for our pup! When she took care of him she sent us countless updates and pictures and was very understanding of all of his needs. Albert loves her homemade treats and running around in her backyard. She’s a really great fit for our Albert!”

I provide dependable, loving care for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. My experience as an animal rescue volunteer and foster caregiver has taught me how to work with shy, anxious, and special-needs pets, helping them feel safe and comfortable while their families are away.

Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I am home throughout the day and have a flexible schedule.

I enjoy spending time with animals and can provide updates and photos so pet parents can feel confident their cats are safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they're away. When caring for pets in a client's home or mine, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible.

I also monitor their behavior and well-being, provide basic medications if needed, and keep pet parents updated with photos and messages during each visit.
About: I am from Colombia and there I had the opportunity to work with him, in a family veterinarian where I learned a lot. Here in the United States I have been taking care of dogs and cats at home several times. It is important, since animals are part of my life and always will be, I also dream of one day having the money to be able to give a good life to several animals that currently live in a shelter. I keep them company, I sing to them, I play with them, I walk them, when they sleep in my house I always make them comfortable and I am aware of all their behavior, especially because I know they miss their owners.

About: I have always had a pet growing up. I used to have cats when I was little and then eventually turned to dogs. Currently back at home I have three dogs that I love so so so much. Here in Greenville I share custody of a dog, Saint, with my boyfriend. I love to walk so that is no problem for me when it comes to walking dogs. I also worked as an assistant for almost two years where one of my main priorities was taking care of her pitty :) I currently work part time so my availability is pretty open! I spend a lot of my time outside on walks, so it only makes sense that I open the door to including pets on my walk. I do stay in an apartment so I don't have yard space for pets, but I am willing to drive to dog parks or walking trails. I also don't mind going to other peoples home to care for their animals.

I would love it if you gave me the opportunity to care for your pet to brighten their day as well as yours! I am currently very flexible and have more time to provide enrichment and safe outdoor activities. This means I can be available during the day when your baby needs me most!

Pet care fits into my week really naturally. I'm in school with an easy schedule, so I’ve got the time that makes it easy to fit in morning walks, afternoon visits, or whatever your pet needs. Whether it’s dropping in to feed and play, going for a walk, or just keeping them company, I plan my day around making sure they’re happy and well cared for. Honestly, spending time with animals is the best part of my day—it never feels like a chore!! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or at the client’s, I always try to make them feel as comfortable and safe as possible. In my home, I keep things calm, clean, and pet-friendly, with plenty of space to play and relax. I stick to their normal routines as much as I can—meals, walks, and bedtime, so it feels familiar to them. When I’m at a client’s home, I treat it with the same care and respect I would my own, making sure their pet gets lots of attention, exercise, and love. I follow any instructions closely and always leave the place just as I found it, if not better!

About: I have a passion for animals and have been working with them for many years. Growing up on a large farm in upstate New York, I was exposed to a wide range of pets and farm animals.

“Kiley was a lifesaver for us! Our usual dog sitter/walker couldn’t assist us and I was able to book Kiley on short notice.

“She's a great dog sitter. My dog Bella had a blast the set up for the dogs are nice looks like a doggie hotel.

“Monica and her husband were the absolute best!! During our meet and greet I immediately felt comfortable with them. I have had a previous meet and greet experience where I felt uncomfortable within a few minutes and felt pressured to choose that home. Monica let Peyton become comfortable with her and her husband before introducing their fur baby. We stayed long enough to ensure everyone would be a good fit for each other. I received videos and pictures while Peyton was there and I could tell he was receiving plenty of love and cuddles whoch was very important to me. My fur baby did not seem stressed or uncared for when I picked him up. If you want a good home for your fur baby and piece of mind while you are away, I would definitely recommend Monica. You will not regret your choice.”
