“Annie gave me so much peace of mind while I was out of town for the weekend. She seemed right at home, and the community she lives in is very safe and dog-friendly. at the end of my stay, I received a wonderful "letter from Chloe" of all the things she did while I was gone. I will absolutely rebook again!”

She sent photos and updates that kept my mind at ease while I was on vacation, which meant so much to me.

She and her children treated my baby as part of their family, showering her with affection and attention. Brittany also stayed in constant communication with me every single day, sending photos and showing me the environment Luna was in, which gave me so much peace and confidence. It’s a true blessing to find someone like her. I will absolutely trust her again and recommend her more than 100%. Thank you, Brittany, for everything!”
“I felt at ease with Carolina’s service. She sends updates with pictures and videos of your dog, and she treats them as if they are her own. I especially love how involved her family is with helping care for my pet. If she would have Renegade again, I definitely will book with this family again .”

About: I've personally taken care of cats as long as I can remember, between my family members as well as my own cats! I currently have four rescue cats who have plenty of toys and treats in their own personal sunroom. Your cat will have the opportunity to play with other kitties, sunbathe, play with toys, and get treats.
About: Tiger is my personal cat. I have shopped for her food, taken her to the vet, and fulfilled all her needs since I got her. I have her maintenance schedule to fill all her needs, cause no pets are low maintenance, it just means they aren't getting the care they need. Every four months her litter box gets deep clean, the box itself and scoop get washed. The litter box gets scooped twice a week. She also gets brushed twice a week, because not only does she enjoy it, but it reduces hairballs and promotes fur health (and less fur in the house!). I play with her a minimum of once a day, twice is the average though. She gets fed three times a day from wet food, and has a water fountain that gets a monthly deep clean. I do have experience giving her medication in her food along with her probiotic. Occasionally she goes for a leashed walk in the yard for extra stimulation. I have only cared for my own cat, but I am willing to go up and beyond for any cat.
“Lynne was an excellent sitter! My dogs were well taken care of. She sent pics of our happy critters everyday. We will definitely book again with Lynne when needed. We appreciate her being so good to our little ones.”
About: I am absolutely obsessed with cats and would have a billion if I could! 🐱💕 I have a cat of my own, Archie, and I love getting to know every cat’s unique personality and quirks. I’m attentive to their routines, comfortable giving them plenty of playtime and affection, and happy to let shy or independent cats have their space. I also take litter box care seriously and make sure food, water, and their environment stay clean and comfortable. What sets me apart is that I genuinely LOVE being around cats. I don’t see cat sitting as just a job—I’m excited to spend time with them, give them attention, and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while their humans are away. 🐾
“Stephanie took amazing care of my cat and was an overall pleasure to work with! She genuinely cares about each pet and pays attention to detail. She also does an incredible job communicating and keeping you updated on how your baby is doing during her stay and she sends lots of cute photos too! Your fur babies will be in excellent hands with her!”
“Is there a 12 star button because Ashley was absolutely amazing. She went well above and beyond what I ever expected. She was very attentive to details with Keebler and the house. I will be using her again.”

The other works occasionally and is there when needed. weekends we a both available. We live on a dead end so not many cars pass by. We also have 1 senior dog who is small and tranquil. There is lots of room in the house for dogs to have plenty of space if they would like.
“We have been using Elizabeth & Kevin for about a year now. We moved here temporarily while our house is being built & I’m so sad that we’ll be too far away to use their services when we move. They have been a godsend! We have used both their daycare & boarding services & I feel extremely comfortable with both. They are super sweet & treat my baby as if he’s their own. Ryder is super attached to us so I always feel so bad leaving him but it helps so much to know that he’s well taken care of loved on while we’re away. They always send tons of photos & videos so I’m always assured he’s having a great time. I can’t thank Elizabeth & Kevin enough for the peace of mind they provide to us. They are THE BEST!!!”
“Absolutely the best!!!! My pups were well taken care of. I received wonderful photos well me and hubby were out attending a birthday celebration for our two grandchildren two hors away. I highly recommend and will definitely use again if before September. Since they are making a move to Texas. We wish them well and really wish they were staying and had used them sooner. Thank you for loving our babies.”
“After going through a few people and having terrible experiences and can as say alexis brought my trust back in rover. She updated me about my puppy at every step to the point I felt like i was there with her. I absolutely loved that. My puppy seemed to really be enjoying her time with Alexis and her dogs. I will definitely be using her service again.”
About: Hi there! I am a loving, active dog sitter with years of experience caring for dogs of all shapes and sizes—from energetic little pups to gentle giants. Dogs aren't just pets for me; I love "working" with them, playing brain games, and practicing fun tricks to keep them happy and engaged. I have my own beloved 13-year-old female White Swiss Shepherd. Because my sweet senior lady is getting older, I'm not ready to bring a new dog permanently into my life just yet—but I have so much love to give, which is why I would love to help you out with yours! My Home & Routine: Always Supervised: I work from home, meaning your dog will have constant company, plenty of bathroom breaks, and endless attention. The Yard: I have a great garden for fresh air and stretching legs. Please note: It is currently unfenced, so I always supervise outdoor time and use long training leashes for safety. Special Care: Because of my experience with my own senior dog, I am completely comfortable and experienced with administering medication if your dog needs it. What I am looking for: Since I have kids, it is very important for me that your pup is fully comfortable and friendly with kids. I can't wait to treat your dog like a member of my own family! As a long-time Rover user, I know exactly what goes into providing excellent care. To give you peace of mind, I would be happy to meet you before you book! And! As a photographer, I also offer a mini-photoshoot for your dog—in addition to the regular updates and photos. I am always at home. Our children are at daycare during the day. But they are already looking forward to playing and cuddling with your dogs and my husband works from home. I have a garden, but no fence. Your dog is free to roam throughout the house. I will go for three walks: in the morning, at noon, and in the evening. If it is very warm at midday, I extend morning and evening walks so that your dog doesn't burn their paws. Our dog will be kept separate from yours.
“Sheila was awesome with my dog Walter. She was very patient and eager to learn about him and his quirks. She was very patient and gave Walter time to acclimate to the environment slowly. I would definitely recommend her to care for your pup!!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life, including my 3-year-old Goldendoodle and 8-year-old Golden Retriever. I’m experienced with daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, and giving both energetic and senior dogs the attention they need. I’m flexible and able to work around most schedules, including weekdays, weekends, and overnight stays with advance notice, and I’ll always communicate clearly to confirm timing before each booking. When your pet is with me, you can expect consistent care, attention, and safety, including walks, playtime, feeding, and water checks exactly as instructed, along with a calm and patient approach for all dog personalities and energy levels. I also provide regular updates with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing, and I treat every dog like family. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority at all times. I provide a calm, secure, and supervised environment where dogs are never left unattended during care, and I always follow owner instructions carefully for feeding, walks, and routines. I’m attentive to each dog’s behavior and needs to make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and comfortable, whether they’re energetic or more laid-back. I also keep a clean environment and make sure pets are always in a safe space during visits or stays.
“Boonie was very attentive, friendly and communicative. We did She sent me update and photos all day long to letting me know how my Barry was doing.

About: My husband and I have raised our golden retriever since he was a puppy into adulthood. We watch our family and friends pets for days or week at a time usually in our home, but can come by your own if needed. I have experience with ages from puppy to elderly and the details that come along with that (no instruction list is too big!). As long as they are all okay with staying in the home with our very pet friendly dog. I am also able to come to others houses for babysitting, walking or anything that may be needed away from our home if I am able to. I currently work a hybrid schedule and go into the office Tuesdays and Thursdays but my husband is home on the days that I am in office and vise versa. We can be home on the weekends as long as we have notice in advance. We usually treat pets like family in our home and a friend to our dog, Bogey. He loves both dogs and cats no matter the size or age. We are organized, active and respectful of a pet or clients boundaries.

About: Amo a las mascotas sobretodo los perros, sé que no son niños pero los trato tal cual respetuosa y cuidadora, me he criado con una mascota en casa desde mi infancia, mi primera mascota era un Rottweiler llamada Danger, ella era una belleza de perro, era grande e imponente, mi hermano y yo la entrenamos al punto que salía a caminar sin leash en la calle, acataba todas las ordenes que le dabamos, era muy inteligente. Al pasar de los años cuando conocí a mi esposo, el ya tenía un perro, era un poodle llamado Blacky el se convirtió rápidamente en mi bebe el no tenía muchos habitos de entrenamiento y con el pasar del tiempo le fui enseñando cosas básicas, como sentarse, dar la pata y caminar al lado sin que saliera corriendo sin leash, el falleció hace un par de años, su perdida fue muy dura de verdad. Y no hemos tenido más perros por los momentos, pero amigos y vecinos me han dado sus perros con lo ojos cerrados porque saben que los cuido muy bien, soy muy respetuosa y cariñosa, lo más importantes es que siempre busco de enseñarle algún truco, en mis fotos podrán ver algunos perros que he tenido cuidando varios dias, tengo a Toby que aparece en mi foto de perfil parecido a mi perro Blacky a Mila una cachorra hermosa, y luna una viejita hermosa. me gusta jugar con ellos y darle mucho amor. 🐕🦺Tener una mascota es mucha responsabilidad amor y paciencia. Estoy comenzando en esta app Rover formalmente y me gustaría cuidar a tu peludito. 🤗🐶 Actualmente trabajo por mi cuenta y estoy la gran parte de las veces en casa. Podría usar una parte de mi tiempo para visitar a tu mascota y recargar las energía con ella. Tengo un jardín súper grande y tengo bastante espacio para jugar con el o ella. Tambien en la urbanización puedo darle varias vueltas y conozcan la zona

“Alison came to our rescue with a last minute booking and she was great with both of my pups. One is very anxious and slow to warm up to people but warmed up to her really quick! Will definitely use her in the future :)”
About: •I have had animals all my life and have plenty of experience (fish, birds, cats, dogs, a rabbit) •I currently have 2 dogs & 2 cats at this time. Zeus is an American bully and Teddy is a Lab mix. Zeus is 1 and teddy is only a few months old but growing like a weed. They both love other dogs and playing but if needed I can keep mine separated with a baby gate in the dining room. The cats are a brother and sister pair from the shelter named Naruto & Peach. •I have house sat for my brother and taken care of his dogs ( a Rottweiler and a pitbull) as well as my mom (another American bully) •I do work from home so I am available 24/7 for your fur baby, they are never left alone! •I do have two small children so if your fur baby doesn’t like children please reconsider (kids will not be allowed to mess with them or annoy them any way but I wanted to be upfront) •Any other questions feel free to ask! I work M-Th but I work from home so I am always around and available if needed, I can step away easily if it’s needed. I don’t have a fenced in yard, but we do live very rural so we don’t have to worry about dogs running into the road or running away… My dogs do pretty well with being off a leash and being watched but I know others aren’t comfortable with their dogs being out like that so a leash can be used as well.
About: Loving and dependable dog walker with a big heart for furry friends and a true passion for what I do! I adore spending time with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities, making sure each pup gets plenty of attention, exercise, and tail-wagging fun while their humans are away. Whether it’s a leisurely stroll or an energetic adventure, I focus on creating a safe, happy, and stress-free experience for every pet in my care. With a natural understanding of canine behavior and open, friendly communication, I build strong bonds with both dogs and their owners—so you can feel completely at ease knowing your beloved pet is in caring, trustworthy hands. I am currently self-employed as a furniture refinisher so my availability is pretty flexible. All I ask for is a little advance notice, if possible at least a day, for a booking or cancelation. I'm more than happy to send you photo/video updates of our adventures while your away so that you know your loved one(s) in good hands!
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover based on a 10-acre homestead in Pageland, SC. I specialize in structured, safe boarding with supervised outdoor time and secure indoor accommodations. We have a brand-new 6-foot wooden privacy fence enclosing our backyard, providing a secure area for dogs to exercise, stretch, and explore during supervised potty breaks and play sessions. Guests stay in our large climate-controlled sunroom outfitted with seven kennels, giving each dog their own secure space to rest comfortably between outdoor time, meals, and enrichment. Crate rotation and routine breaks are built into our daily schedule, ensuring dogs have consistency and predictability. Crate & House Access Policy • Crating is standard when we are away or sleeping, and during rest periods. • Potty breaks are offered approximately every 2 hours during waking hours. • For older, calm, fully house-trained, non-destructive, and cat-friendly dogs, free-roam house access may be considered on a case-by-case basis with owner request and compatibility assessment. • Dogs with separation anxiety, destructive tendencies, or unsafe habits (counter-surfing, door-bolting, etc.) will remain on our structured crate schedule for their safety. Experience & Approach I’ve owned and cared for everything from hedgehogs and geckos to chickens, horses, and working-breed dogs. I’m comfortable with: • Medication administration (oral or topical) • Senior dogs • Puppies & house-training stages • Reactive or shy personalities • High-energy dogs who require clear routines • Multi-dog coexistence and safe rotations My husband runs his own business and is home most of the time, ensuring someone is almost always present for supervision, potty break intervals, and routine care. I am home evenings and weekends, and we work together to provide structure, security, and consistent monitoring. What You Can Expect • Individual crate spaces (no shared kennels) • 6-ft fully fenced private yard • Consistent potty break schedule (≈ every 2 hours) • Supervised outdoor time only • Optional house freedom only if fully compatible • Daily updates, photos, and communication We focus on safe, predictable, and tailored care based on each dog’s needs and the comfort level of their owner. Whether a pup thrives with structured crate rest or enjoys calm, supervised sunroom naps, we tailor stays responsibly rather than one-size-fits-all. 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. We do not allow free play with other pets - so you know that your furry friend is safe and sound the entire stay! They will have supervised playtime with other pups from the same household, or with just our staff! Our top priority is a safe stay.
About: I have been raised with a pet by side. When I have born we had two brittany spaniels that have since passed on. In 8th grade, after they passed, we adopted another puppy brittany. A year later, we adopted another, to have our current pair of brittanys. So I have experience raising puppies as well. I play with them outdoors and indoors, brush them, clean up their poop, bath them, feed them, and train them. They also get taken on walks at the local forest preserve for stimulation. I have experience in caring for fish and snakes. Between dogs, I had my cat to keep me company. She is solely my cat, so she got the same attention as the dogs, plus I bought her toys, treats, litter, and food. Outside of my dogs I have pet sit goldens labs, goldendoodles, springer spaniels, and many other breeds. As in my headline, I don't think any animal is low maintenance. That just means the pet isn't getting the care it deserves. I had my cat at my dorm first semester, and I fed her breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I made sure to play with twice a day and we played birds on the tv for stimulation as well. I had a weekly schedule to brush her twice a week, and clean the litter box every Sunday and Wednesday. At home I would alternate playing with my dogs, training, and brushing them whenever possible. I can play indoors and outdoors. I can take the animal for walks. Clean up any potential messes, such as muddy dogs or if a cat has a hairball. I can accompany senior pets that need help eating. I can brush the animal. And feed them, and do basic training.

About: I was raised with dogs my whole life. Iv done everything from helping with birthing to providing comfortable space for our fur babies to go to heaven I’m a stay at home dog mom. I enjoy being at home with my fur babies playing outside/enjoying the weather making happy memories and moments I have a fenced yard and two friendly girl fur babies that love to play with other dogs and get zoomies all around my spacious fenced yard.
About: I love all animals and have always had a passion to work with animals. I grew up with dogs, cats, bunnies, horses, birds, you name it! I treat everyone's fur babies how I'd expect people to treat my mine. I use to do anesthesia-free dog teeth cleaning, so I am very comfortable with all sizes and types of dogs. I'm a good pick for your pets because I have a passion for animals and go up and beyond what's expected. I will always send you pictures of your sweet little babies while you are away on your trip. Let me take good care of your babies and give them someone who cares, wants to play and keep their mind of their owners while they are gone. Thanks for considering me :-) I am home most of the day every day so your fur baby will never be alone for too long at a time. I'm pretty flexible with times for drop ins as well. I have fenced yard that my dog loves to play in (more so, when he gets to have a buddy over) haha. Inside, dogs have full range inside the house and I let them on furniture. (If you are strict with your dog with getting on furniture, I will make sure he has the same set of rules at my place).
About: For the past 4 years, I’ve provided loving, dependable care for cats, dogs, and birds through overnight stays, drop-in visits, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and walks. Cats are my specialty! I’m very experienced with feline behavior, shy cats and multi-cat households. I love making pets feel calm and comfortable while their owners are away. I also have experience caring for dogs with different energy levels and routines, including daily walks, companionship, and overnight care. In addition, I have hands on experience with tropical birds and understand the importance of patience, consistency and attention to detail when caring for exotic pets. What sets me apart is the genuine love and attention I give every animal! I take my time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and comfort needs so they feel safe, relaxed, and cared for. I am reliable, communicative, and committed to making pet parents feel confident while they’re away through regular updates and attentive care. I am currently a part-time worker at a local pharmacy and a Full-Time college student looking to make extra money while doing what I love. I am free at least 3-4 days a week, the more notice the better I can work around your preferred schedule. My preference is afternoons, however if mornings or nights are needed I can accommodate! I am more free during week days but can make time on weekends around my work schedule as I typically only work 5-6 hour shifts. I currently can not offer my personal living quarters for care, however I am able to travel up to 40 miles to stay with or check on pets. If you are in need of someone urgently and live outside a 40 mile radius please message me directly and I may be able to still work with you! I will walk, feed, stay with, play with and care for various cats and dog breeds! I also have experience with tropical birds and fish if need be. I will clean up after all animals and leave your home tidy and neat, as well as provide updates at your desired time span i.e (Daily, Hourly, Etc.).
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all kinds since I was 10 years old. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I truly love animals and always make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I'm currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time during the week to care for and play with your pups. Can't wait to become your pet's bestfriend!!!! I’m comfortable going to your home to care for your pet. I always make sure your furry friend feels safe and loved in their own space. I follow instructions carefully and treat every pet like family.
About: My love for pets started as a child. I have had several dogs in my life. A few I’ve chosen, and many I have taken in and rehomed. I was known in my hometown as the person to call if an animal needed a quick placement .. or a total new situation. I currently have a 110 lb, (gentle giant) rescue ,named Olaf, that I’ve had for 4.5 ears, two cats that fell into my lap within the last year, a bunny and a few fish. Olaf is getting older and doesn’t prefer much exercise anymore. Id love to walk your dog, pop in quick or care for your animals for an extended period of time. I currently work part-time for myself and have plenty of spare time to dedicate to the care of and needed company to your animals. Spoiling animals , within reason 😊, is what I love! My biggest concern is the safety of your pet first and foremost. I also highly focus on making sure their needs are being met while in my care. Every animal requires a different level of need. Bonding and providing comfort to your animal when you are away from them is just as important as their basic needs. I have yet to meet a dog that doesn’t love me completely!

“Cami took very good care of my dog. She sent pictures to me. Normally my dog eats very little when he isn’t home. Cami got him to eat all of his food. I can tell that he was well taken care.”
“Miles had a wonderful time at Deborah's. She sent lots of pictures and she can move walks everyday. She was very responsible and responded each day with an update. I will book again as a matter of fact I did already”
“First timer with Kelly and we would highly recommend! Kelly was so friendly and welcoming. Her little farm was perfect for our dog! Great fenced in backyard area where the dogs can play together. Her sweet Aussies are so sweet and friendly. Even when leaving our dog was still running up to Kelly for love and wagging his tail which left us feeling great about leaving our pup with her! Thanks Kelly!”
“Racheal went above and beyond—sending regular updates, photos, and truly treating our pup like family. It was clear from the moment we met that they genuinely love animals and take their responsibility seriously. Our dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We’ll absolutely be booking again. Thank you for your outstanding service! Stephen”
