âDuring the introduction meeting Carolina and her family were all so welcoming and kind and Carolina was obviously on point professionally so I was completely comfortable with leaving Onyx with them. The appointment went very smoothly and I highly recommend her to anyone needing a dog-sitter.â

âShelby was great! We had a relatively last minute booking and she was flexible and accommodating. Sheâs very on top of different needs and sent us pictures updates. Thank you so much, Shelby!â


âOur puppy is just like another child to our family. We felt very comfortable leaving her with Steve and could tell she had a great time while we were away. We are thankful to have found this service and will definitely be in contact with them again.â


âMary was absolutely amazing while keeping our lab pup! She was very kind and clear about what his stay would be like during our meet and greet, and she sent updates and photos throughout to let us know how he was doing. I had 100% confidence that he was playing, getting love and having a great time. The dogs have a great yard to play in and plenty of toys and spots for naps. Iâm very thankful to have found Mary and will definitely be using her in the future as we go out of town!â


âIf you need someone to watch your pup, we highly recommend Jessica and Matthew. We received regular pictures and chat back and forth to let us know how Daisy was doing. She had a great time with her stay. She made some friends and was almost sad to leave them haha. Super friendly and great communication. We will definitely have them watch Daisy again!â

About: Hi! Iâm Shell, a compassionate and dependable animal lover with hands-on experience caring for pets and working in a veterinary hospital. As a Veterinary Assistant, Iâm comfortable handling animals, paying attention to their behavior and needs, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I know that leaving your pets with someone else can be stressful, so I treat every animal like an individualânot just another booking. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, some playtime, a little extra attention, or simply a calm companion while youâre away, Iâm here to make sure they feel happy and loved. đśđ Iâm attentive to details, reliable, patient, and always willing to follow your petâs specific routine and instructions. Iâll also keep you updated with photos and little check-ins so you donât have to wonder how your furry friend is doing! Your petâs comfort, safety, and happiness come first. I work as a Veterinary Assistant, so animals are already a big part of my daily life! Iâm excited to bring that experience into caring for your pets. Iâm experienced with handling animals safely and recognizing when theyâre stressed or uncomfortable. Iâll follow your petâs routine carefully and provide a calm, safe, loving environment.
About: Iâve loved and cared for dogs my whole lifeâfrom my childhood golden retriever, to my first mini poodle in college, and now my French bulldog puppy. Having a Frenchie has taught me how to care for dogs with sensitive stomachs, skin allergies, and special needs. I cook fresh, balanced meals with real protein and veggies for every meal, and I treat every pup like my ownâgentle, patient, and a little spoiled. Whether itâs walks, cuddles, or home-cooked meals, I make sure each dog feels safe, loved, and completely at home. Iâm an MBA student at Cornell and have classes about three times a week from Monday to Thursday from 9am to 1pm. My boyfriend is home during the day until I return in the afternoon, so thereâs always someone available to care for and walk the pups. Weâre both huge dog lovers and spend most weekends at home since I usually have assignments to work on â which means plenty of time for cuddles, walks, and playtime with your furry family member. Your pupâs comfort and safety are my top priorities. I have a French bulldog with sensitive skin and allergies, so Iâm extremely careful about hygiene, food, and playtime routines. I also have a bit of OCD when it comes to cleaning â my home is spotless, sanitized daily, and always pet-safe. Every pup has their own cozy, comfortable space to relax, and I can easily follow any feeding or medication instructions. Whether your dog needs fresh meals, extra attention, or a calm environment, theyâll be cared for with the same love and detail I give my own.
âDana took great care of Loki on our long trip away! He got a little stomach upset (typical for him with routine/environment changes) and she was very attentive, communicative, and helped get him back on track. Everything was really smooth, and Loki always comes back happy & calm :)â

âDestiny took great care of my Nabe! She kept me updated every day, which really helped me feel at ease. Nabe seemed super happy and comfortable staying with her. I really appreciate it!â

âI'm with my dog 24/7 so it's hard for me to part with her when we travel. We're so glad we found Charlene and Rick. They went above and beyond to make sure that we could wrap up our trip without worries. Our dog loved both of them and we'll definitely ask for their help again when we need it!â

âLaura was wonderful and took great care of our dogs! She was very diligent and took lots of pics for us, so we were reassured our dogs were happy and well taken care of. We will definitely be using Laura again!â

âAlexandria was awesome. Easygoing, communicative, flexible and totally capable. We really appreciate her taking care of our sweet pup for the night! He came back happy as a clam.â


âLil bear loves going there. I never have to worry about him when I drop him off. We use them for overnight boarding and doggy daycare. I highly recommend them.â
âAndrea and her family were absolutely wonderful to our elderly pup during his first stay with them. They were extremely attentive to his behavior and needs, and totally proactive in sending me photos and reports on his stay. When I arrived to pick him up, I could see how well they had connected with him through their warmth and kindness. We are very grateful to them and already looking forward to his next visit!â

âSusan is incredible and I'm so glad to have found someone my very anxious dog can feel comfortable with when I'm gone. Susan kept me updated (with pictures when Jade would cooperate) regularly and was kind and patient, even when Jade decided to turn up the dramatics. Would absolutely recommend for anyone with an anxious dog who needs a little extra love and care!â

âAshley was absolutely wonderful in watching my two pups! She is obviously incredibly knowledgeable about all sorts of dog care and was great at watching both a giant hyperactive puppy and my older more mellow girl who needs regular medications. She sent so many updates and pictures during their stay so I always felt informed and up to date on their day! Ashley was so respectful of my wishes with them and made sure to check with me about treats, bath products, and extra activities. She took my one dog running with her regularly, which he loves, and gave my lazy cuddle bug lots of snuggles and couch time! The dogs clearly got so much love from her entire family and I felt so assured that they were in capable and loving hands! Ashley asked questions when she had them and followed my feeding and medication instructions to a T! She was also so sensitive about making sure both dogs felt comfortable and making sure they were in a safe and secure environment on their terms! Both my pups were so happy looking in all their pics and were excited on pick up-I could tell they had a great time! Iâm no stranger to dog sitters and doggie daycare and honestly, Ashley is one of the best Iâve found so far and I canât wait for my pack to spend time with Ashley and her wonderful family again! Sheâs got a new regular!â

âIt's abundantly clear how much Sindri truly cares for animals. I hate leaving our elderly and slightly neurotic cat at home, but from the first meet and greet to the very thorough check-in updates, I was actually able to be out of town with minimal anxiety. Sindri's experience really shined with the photos, detailed description of the interaction, and quick responses for each visit. Thank you for taking such excellent care of our meatball!â

About: There has been a cat in my home every day for as long as I can remember. I'm no stranger to a feline friend. I currently have four cats of my own, two that I intentionally adopted and two that were gifts of the cat distribution system. My eldest cat now takes medication twice daily, so I'm also familiar and comfortable with handling senior kitties and medication needs.

âGreat services. Carissa is really patient and thoughtful taking care of my cats. And she always tries best to do all care stuff and asks me if she has any concerns. She sent me many photos during the drop-in visit and my cats are really comfortable with her, even the timid one. I really appreciate her help while I am out of town. And I will select her service again if I am out of town in the future.â

âColleen goes above and beyond. I will always have Colleen take care of my pets when I go away. Knowing my pets were being taken care of made my trip 100 times better. Lots of communication throughout, I would give 10 stars if that existed. Thank you.â

I believe you can trust your fur babies in her care.â

About: Although I have never owned a cat of my own, I absolutely love cats and look forward to caring for yours. I have experience caring for shelter cats, where I helped meet their daily needs, including feeding, providing fresh water, cleaning their spaces, playing with them, and giving them attention and affection. As a pre-veterinary student with experience working in a veterinary office, I understand the importance of being patient, gentle, and attentive to each catâs individual personality and routine.

âJamie made sure both of my kitties had plenty of food. He stayed for an hour each time. They were warming up to him by the fourth day. He will do what you want him to do to take care of your kitties. Thank you, Jamieâ

âRobyn was very punctual and sent timely updates after each visit. I knew our boy was in good hands in her care. I would absolutely work with Robyn again for my large breed guardian dog. Thank you Robynâ


âYazmeen follow all the directions I left and that dogs really like her. It was our first time having someone come to our house to check on the dogs and feed them instead of boarding. It went so smoothly we will definitely request her again. Thank you Yazmeen!â


âAlaska did a great job caring for my two cats when I was away! She checked in on them each morning, and send me updates and pictures.

âMy dog had a fabulous time at daycare with Mikia, her daughter and her dog Zara.

âI am working out of town and Caterina has been a god send for letting me take my puppy with me during the week. She is tucked away in the country with lots of walks and interactions with other doggy friends, which my girl loves. Highly recommend!â

About: I have had pets most of my life. I quit my job and started a non-profit, St. Lewis Foundation, which didnt work out, so all the animals in my care became my pets. They were mostly senior and unwanted animals, which is where my heart is. I am unemployed right now, looking for remote work . So I am home all day. I have the time to let your pup out as many times as he/she wants. If they are a little dog I will be right by their side. I am up 6a - 9p. I have 3 senior cats that sleep up high most of the day, so your pup needs to be okay with cats. All pups sleep with me in my king size bed (if they want to). I have a dog bed next to me in my office or a couch in front of a large front window. I have locked screen security doors in case your pup likes to sniff the air. Central AC (I like it cool) and heating. I have many balls and treats (if allowed) and would love to throw the ball a bit. Back yard is not huge but sufficient. All my dogs have passed and I am missing a dog so much but cant commit right now. So let me love on your pup!
âI was hoping so bad it was a match with my pup and her family...AND IT WAS!!! I work off hours and my pup is a couch potato but needs company. They accommodated him and put him at ease. I'm so glad it was a match bc now that gives him some consistency when I bring him back. Thank you to you and your family.â

I feel like our dogs are part of our family's and should be treated with love and respect. I enjoy walking so I would love to include your dog in my walks. I am a very reliable person who would treat your pet like it's my own. I love dog kisses and muddy paw prints are no problem. If I'm not covered in dog hair and slobber then we haven't had enough fun. I truly do just love all animals and enjoy being with them. I am retired so I have plenty of time every day to walk and play with your fur babies. I enjoy spending time outside and walking is a great way to enjoy any day. I will make sure your dog is always on a leash and walked in a safe place. Plenty of hugs , pets and love will also be part of our walk.
âCharlene was an amazing sitter and made our pup feel super comfy. She was really communicative and he came home happy as can be! Would use her service again anytime ! Thank you so much!â

About: I'm Ada. I've been taking care of dogs, children and seniors for about ten years. I really enjoy it. I have had jobs in which people relied on me to feed, walk, and bathe their pets. I am also known to take the them to the dog park. I currently have open availablity and can fit pet care into my schedule at any time. I don't have any restrictions as of right now. I live in an apartment so I don't have a yard, however I do take pets to the dog park that I watch. They are free to be on the furniture and the bed. And I do not put them in cages or leave them alone.
âThank you Alexandria for hosting Charlie while my husband underwent a surgical procedure this week. It was such a relief not to worry about Charlie, that he would be let outside for bathroom breaks and cared for while we were at the hospital. We sure appreciate that fine care you give him and how you work with our erratic schedule! Nancyâ

âOur dog was nervous at first with being in a new situation. But he immediately took to Destiny. She has a wonderful way with dogs, very gentle and caring. She later let us know that he had settled in nicely. It seems he had a great day - came home tired in a good way. We hope to call on Destiny again.â

âThank you Justin & Melissa for taking good care of Nick for me . I will definitely use your services in the near future. Thank you for being so accommodating for us . Youâre the best . Thanks again Mikeâ

âOur dog Indy has separation anxiety so we are always hesitant to leave him with others. All of that hesitation melted away when we met Claudia! She is such a caring individual, and she was truly able to get Indy to come out of his shell and relax while staying with her. When I picked Indy up he was calm and relaxed and seemed like he actually wanted to stay with her! And Claudia's communication was excellent as well. All the photos really put our mind at ease.â

About: I've taken care of dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities for a large portion of my life - from when I was a kid in Jersey until last year, when my sweet and challenging pit bull, Hudson passed away. The fourteen years I spent with him taught me everything I could possibly want to know about how to care for a dog. I love and miss him so. I'm not in a position to adopt a new dog of my own yet, but spending time with yours would be the next best thing! I have a part-time job at a local artist residency with flexible hours. I have my own car and am available for multiple services at various times each day of the week. I have a fenced in yard and a large dog crate, 2 dog beds, and plenty of toys. I'm an extremely trustworthy person and would treat any client's home with the utmost respect and care. I'm an active runner and would love to take your dog for hikes and walks with me.
About: I am a pre-veterinary student with a lifelong love of animals. I grew up caring for three dogs, which taught me how to be patient, responsible, and attentive to each petâs individual needs.

Feeding, walking, grooming, and playing with them is just built into my routine. I genuinely enjoy the structure and joy they bring, and caring for animals has become second nature to me. At home, I keep my dogs on a consistent routine with feeding, walks, play, and grooming. Iâll care for your pets the same wayâwith love, attention, and reliability, making sure they feel safe and happy while in my care.

About: While I'm more experienced with cats in my home, I have always been the go-to pet sitter for all friends and family. I appreciate that they get just as excited to go for a w-a-l-k as I do. It helps that my schedule is extremely flexible since I'm a bartender who works odd hours. I can do early mornings, late nights, and a mix of anything you need in between. I'm a bartender, so I am available early mornings, late nights, and a good mix of anything in between. The bar I work at is also closed on Sundays and Mondays, so scheduling on those days is completely flexible. My cats are fairly active, so we spend quite a bit of time playing fetch or hide and seek (cats are so odd). I also take them on bike rides with my bike trailer attachment. I'm also equipped to handle medication needs. I don't crate my cats when I'm not home, so that would have to be provided by the client if there is a requirement for one.
About: Hello, I am an active individual who likes being out in nature and exploring the local outdoor areas. I would enjoy the opportunity to help care for your pet and would enjoy the company as well. I am employed full time as a PhD student at Cornell and am seeking a side job that I could enjoy as much as my current job. I live by myself in a quiet, smoke-free home with no other animals or children. I am in a pedestrian-friendly area with excellent scenery for walking. Because much of my work schedule is flexible, I will have time throughout the day to take care and spend time with your pet. I also have more availability on weekends. As an animal lover, I like to interact with dogs through play (tossing a ball, playing tug-of-war with a toy, running around outside) and relaxing with them and giving them pets.
About: Iâve taken care of lots of pets over the years. I enjoy being around animals and showing them love because they do the same for us! I have a genuine love for taking care of things if I can help it and Iâm going to school to even become a nurse. I also started a house plant hobby. Taking care of things is just in my blood. Iâm available more in the evenings . My schedule is flexible but inconsistent because Iâm part time at my jobs but we can discuss availability if you book me to take care of your pet(s)! I have a fenced in back yard and just one cat. Iâm able to keep them separated if needed. I also have my own home and itâs a smoke free one! Iâm very clean and clean my home daily. I let my cat on the couches so yours will be allowed the same if they are not dirty of course.
About: Hi! My name is Brooklin, and animals have been a huge part of my life for over 18 years. I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities. I previously worked with the Charleston Animal Society, where I gained valuable experience caring for animals and understanding their individual needs. My background has given me the skills to provide safe, reliable, and compassionate care for your pets while you're away. I am comfortable administering medications when needed and have experience monitoring pets' health, feeding schedules, water intake, bathroom habits, and overall well-being. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a calm and relaxed environment, I strive to make them feel comfortable, loved, and stress-free. I understand that every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and personalities. My goal is to treat every animal as if they were my own and provide pet parents with peace of mind through dependable care and communication. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! At the moment I have a full time job, but have weekends off. I plan to entail doing this on my weekends and even after work days. This is more then just making it my routine. I adore animal(s). I have a fenced in yard, I as well have a crate. Plenty of opportunities for walking adventures. I enjoy going to the dog park, as well with adventuring outside anywhere with the animal(s). Whatever you set for rules or boundaries Iâll always continue to respect them, and always follow. I enjoy working with animal(s)
About: I've cared for pets of all kinds since l was 10. My experience includes training puppies, caring for senior dogs, administering medication, and providing personalized love and attention. My open availability makes it easy to accommodate your needs. I provide boarding, day walk-ins, and visit-ins to ensure your pet gets the care they deserve. I have a safe, welcoming environment for pets including pet lobby. I prioritize their comfort and safety and tailor my care to each pet's needs.

About: I always loved having pets growing up. I grew up in the country so we had a lot of space for animals to be able to run around and be outside. Dogs, cats, birds...practically every creature you can imagine. Currently I have a cat of my own, and a friendâs dog who I watch fairly regularly. It works out well because Iâm a very active person who likes to get outside as much as possibleâhiking when the weather permits and bringing him along with me. This is in part due to my ever-changing, flexible schedule. I have a few set shifts during the week, but for the most part I make my own hours and I have time to be available pretty much whenever I am needed!

âDuring the introduction meeting Carolina and her family were all so welcoming and kind and Carolina was obviously on point professionally so I was completely comfortable with leaving Onyx with them. The appointment went very smoothly and I highly recommend her to anyone needing a dog-sitter.â

âShelby was great! We had a relatively last minute booking and she was flexible and accommodating. Sheâs very on top of different needs and sent us pictures updates. Thank you so much, Shelby!â


âOur puppy is just like another child to our family. We felt very comfortable leaving her with Steve and could tell she had a great time while we were away. We are thankful to have found this service and will definitely be in contact with them again.â


âIf you need someone to watch your pup, we highly recommend Jessica and Matthew. We received regular pictures and chat back and forth to let us know how Daisy was doing. She had a great time with her stay. She made some friends and was almost sad to leave them haha. Super friendly and great communication. We will definitely have them watch Daisy again!â

âDestiny took great care of my Nabe! She kept me updated every day, which really helped me feel at ease. Nabe seemed super happy and comfortable staying with her. I really appreciate it!â

âLaura was wonderful and took great care of our dogs! She was very diligent and took lots of pics for us, so we were reassured our dogs were happy and well taken care of. We will definitely be using Laura again!â

âDana took great care of Loki on our long trip away! He got a little stomach upset (typical for him with routine/environment changes) and she was very attentive, communicative, and helped get him back on track. Everything was really smooth, and Loki always comes back happy & calm :)â

âAlexandria was awesome. Easygoing, communicative, flexible and totally capable. We really appreciate her taking care of our sweet pup for the night! He came back happy as a clam.â

âAndrea and her family were absolutely wonderful to our elderly pup during his first stay with them. They were extremely attentive to his behavior and needs, and totally proactive in sending me photos and reports on his stay. When I arrived to pick him up, I could see how well they had connected with him through their warmth and kindness. We are very grateful to them and already looking forward to his next visit!â

âSusan is incredible and I'm so glad to have found someone my very anxious dog can feel comfortable with when I'm gone. Susan kept me updated (with pictures when Jade would cooperate) regularly and was kind and patient, even when Jade decided to turn up the dramatics. Would absolutely recommend for anyone with an anxious dog who needs a little extra love and care!â

âAshley was absolutely wonderful in watching my two pups! She is obviously incredibly knowledgeable about all sorts of dog care and was great at watching both a giant hyperactive puppy and my older more mellow girl who needs regular medications. She sent so many updates and pictures during their stay so I always felt informed and up to date on their day! Ashley was so respectful of my wishes with them and made sure to check with me about treats, bath products, and extra activities. She took my one dog running with her regularly, which he loves, and gave my lazy cuddle bug lots of snuggles and couch time! The dogs clearly got so much love from her entire family and I felt so assured that they were in capable and loving hands! Ashley asked questions when she had them and followed my feeding and medication instructions to a T! She was also so sensitive about making sure both dogs felt comfortable and making sure they were in a safe and secure environment on their terms! Both my pups were so happy looking in all their pics and were excited on pick up-I could tell they had a great time! Iâm no stranger to dog sitters and doggie daycare and honestly, Ashley is one of the best Iâve found so far and I canât wait for my pack to spend time with Ashley and her wonderful family again! Sheâs got a new regular!â

âLuann was such a perfect fit to watch our Mabel. She is great with dogs, has a beautiful home, and huge fenced yard for outdoor activity. She graciously provided us with pics and videos while we were away which we appreciated. So thoughtful. We will definitely be booking again in the future!â

âGreat communication and pictures all throughout his stay. Eased my mind a great deal. Very friendly and happy home my little pup got to stay at for his first overnight sitter. Will be returning!â
âI wish there were an option to leave more than five stars, because Georgia and her dog Wilma went so above and beyond. I had to find a last minute sitter over the holiday weekend, which, without Georgia's responsiveness and flexibility, would have been next to impossible. When I dropped my dog off, I could tell immediately that she was going to have an amazing time. Georgia sent lots of updates while I was away, which was much appreciated. Normally when I pick up my dog after a couple of days away, she's overjoyed to go back home, but this time, she actually seemed bummed to be leaving her new bff Wilma!â

âOur bulldog Leia had an amazing time! She played a ton in the huge, fenced-in yard and seemed to be very well cared for and received a lot of personal attention. We received a lot of nice updates with photos and videos. She was very tired when she got home which is great! We hope to have Leia stay with Robert and Eileen again when we travel in the future.â
