“Megan is amazing! Our pup was so happy to see her again and from the pictures it looks like she had so much fun! Megan even gave us the sweetest handmade gift because we were going out of town for our wedding! :)”
“Shawna was great with Ollie. He can be a nervous dog when away from his mama, but Shawna reassured me with texts and pics/video that Ollie was doing ok! I really appreciated her willingness to help me out on pretty short notice.”
“Andre and her family did a fantastic job caring for our mini bernedoodle! Andre was prompt with all communication and scheduling was easy. Her home is welcoming and Biscotti really enjoyed playing with their sweet lab and snuggling her kids. We could tell Biscotti was well-cared for when we brought her back home- she was calm and happy and jumped right back into our family routines- like she had a great vacation too! Thanks, Andre and fam! We’ll definitely book with Andre again.”

“My dog had the time of his life at Bailee's. He is an only dog at home who is obsessed with other dogs and was absolutely spoiled at her place, and came back pleased and exhausted. I received frequent updates and great photos of my dog playing in the backyard. Whenever I reached out for updates Bailee replied very quickly. We will be back!”
“I’m very happy with the care Rufo received. It was my first time leaving him with sitters, and they made me feel completely at ease. They kept me updated with photos and videos, and I could tell Rufo was happy and well cared for. I’ll definitely book with them again”
“Omg .. Dara was great. One of my dogs is not a people person but she (Nala) could not stop loving her when I got them back. This made me feel really good about leaving my babies with someone other then my son. I never liked going to do anything without feeling guilty but I feel so comfortable doing things now .. Thank you soooo much”

“This is the first time we had to leave our dog with a sitter and we were nervous to do so. We couldn't be any happier with the way Michelle cared for our puppy. He was in very good hands and the updates we received along with pictures and videos was great. Will definitely use Michelle for our future needs.”
“Shannon was very sweet with Bear. She sent me a picture while I was away. She also took him on short notice which was a blessing! I recommend Shannon to anyone looking to board their fur baby.”

“This was the first time I’ve ever hired anyone to watch my older cat Snoopy. Shawna did a great job. She checked in at the timeframe we discussed and took pictures so I could see Snoopy doing well. I will definitely be using Shawna again in the near future.”
“Kimberly is truly the best! She cares for our animals as if they were her own. She keeps us updated every day with messages and photos, which gives us so much peace of mind. We never have to worry about a thing while we’re away because we know they’re in the best hands. We couldn’t recommend her more highly!”

“Adalynn was great with Moby and Tito! She communicated when she was heading over to my apartment and let me know if she was going to be a little earlier or later. She made sure they received lots of pets and love while I was away. Will definitely use her again for any pet sitting needs! :)”

“Rachel was super thorough even before our daycare day, reviewing our pup Shadow's instructions and asking questions about his breakfast time which would overlap with his drop-off which was super appreciated. Rachel and her fiance kept us updated with videos and great pictures of Shadow. Shadow had a great time with Dax, they were super fast friends and really wore eachother out. Shadow was tired for days afterwards from the exertion which was great for us. We will happily use them again for daycare or a longer stay.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was really little from them being born to them being seniors. I currently do work in a kennel so I have been with all types of dogs from really sweet puppies to pretty spicy adult dogs even some senior ones. I also have experience with dogs that have to have medication in the morning or are you at night and dog that are deaf and blind. I truly love any dog so it’s very hard for one to scare me away. so because I do work at a dog kennel I have been around dogs as small as 5 pounds all the way up to dogs that are 160 pounds. Monday, Wednesday- Friday I am available after 3pm but Tuesdays, Saturday, & Sunday I am available all day long for walks, house sitting, & I can also offer some grooming services like Bath, Nails, Paw Pads, and Desheds. So I do work at the dog kennel part-time. I’ll mostly be available on the weekends all day Saturday, Sundays, Tuesday. I’ll also be will be available Monday, Wednesday, and Friday nights though So if you would have me over at your place to watch your dogs, I tried to make sure I have a very open communication with my customers. That way they know that what is going on with their dogs that way if there’s any problems, they are notified right away. I do like sending photos out throughout the day. That way you get to see them enjoying their time playing around that way you know what they’re up to in their day.
About: I have lived with and been around dogs my whole life. I have experience in dog sitting and dog walking, and I am always up for helping people and especially their furry friends! I also have had four cats who were very opposite from being cuddly to being a bit aggressive. However I still love those fuzzballs deeply. Finally I had three parakeets who were very loud but so fun to have around. I am currently in Taylor’s South Carolina. I am 18 years old and currently do not have a job so I am extremely flexible with my schedule. I can really do any day of the week. I like make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away.

If I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and always keep things clean and organized. Lastly, of course have fun with the pet and give them lots of love.

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was about eleven years old. Growing up, I always dreamed of becoming a veterinarian, and my love for animals led me to start volunteering at a local shelter when I was young. What began as a childhood dream quickly turned into a lifelong passion. Through years of volunteering and hands-on experience, I’ve had the opportunity to care for animals with different personalities, needs, and backgrounds. Spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved is something that truly brings me joy. My passion for animal care has only grown stronger over the years, and I would love the opportunity to share that dedication with you by helping care for your pets and making sure they’re happy while you’re away ☺️🐾 I’m currently in nursing school and pet sitting through Rover full-time. Since most of my studying is done from home, I’m able to spend lots of time with the pets in my care, giving them plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision throughout the day. It’s the perfect balance for me—I get to focus on my studies while also caring for and snuggling with the amazing pets I’m trusted to watch. My goal is always to make sure your pets feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away!! 🥰 I have several years of experience dog sitting, cat sitting, dog walking, and volunteering at animal shelters, along with caring for pets of my own. These experiences have taught me how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I always strive to give every pet the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own. I maintain a consistent routine and stay attentive to each pet’s individual needs, including feeding schedules, fresh water, litter box care, potty breaks, exercise, and plenty of affection. My goal is to create a safe, calm, and loving environment so that your pets feel happy, secure, and well cared for at all times!! 🐾💕

“I’m very happy with the care Rufo received. It was my first time leaving him with sitters, and they made me feel completely at ease. They kept me updated with photos and videos, and I could tell Rufo was happy and well cared for. I’ll definitely book with them again”
“Omg .. Dara was great. One of my dogs is not a people person but she (Nala) could not stop loving her when I got them back. This made me feel really good about leaving my babies with someone other then my son. I never liked going to do anything without feeling guilty but I feel so comfortable doing things now .. Thank you soooo much”
“Great experience!! Our Hadlee was well taken care of and had lots of fun, as she was exhausted when we picked her up. Love to see that! Will be rebooking with Tara!! Great communication,quick response, and flexible pick up/ drop off. Thank you Tara!!”

“Such an amazing experience! Our Maggie was so well taken care of. She came home and has been so tired from having so much fun! We received so many pictures and videos of her playing. Will definitely be using her again!”
“This is the first time we had to leave our dog with a sitter and we were nervous to do so. We couldn't be any happier with the way Michelle cared for our puppy. He was in very good hands and the updates we received along with pictures and videos was great. Will definitely use Michelle for our future needs.”
About: I’ve been passionate about dogs and pet care for over 15 years. As the founder of my own pet wellness brand, Shopypaws, I learned not only how to care for pets with love, but also how important their emotional well-being, routines, nutrition, and behavior are. I have experience with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, including active dogs like my own Border Collie mix, Reaver. I truly enjoy spending time with pets, making them feel safe, loved, exercised, and comfortable while their owners are away. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets because I treat every dog like family. I’m patient, attentive, responsible, and genuinely passionate about animals and training positive behaviors. 🐾 Your pet will receive loving care, attention, patience, and lots of affection with me. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because caring for animals is something I truly enjoy and prioritize. I have a flexible schedule and can provide walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, and lots of attention throughout the day. I understand how important routines are for dogs, so I do my best to keep them comfortable, active, and stress free while their owners are away. Whether your pup is energetic and playful or calm and shy, I adapt to their personality and needs to make them feel safe and loved. 🐾 Creating a safe, calm, and loving environment for pets is extremely important to me. I treat every dog like family and pay close attention to their behavior, routines, feeding schedules, and comfort levels. I have experience caring for dogs of different personalities and energy levels, including active breeds like my own dog, Reaver. My background as the founder of Shopypaws also taught me a lot about pet wellness, behavior, and positive care practices. I keep pet parents updated with photos and communication so they can feel at peace while away. My goal is always for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and happy in my care. 🐶✨
“It was my first time using the Rover App . Kashawna was very quick and responsive, answered all my questions that I had. Drop off and pick up went smoothly and she took great care of my sweet allie. I enjoyed receiving the several pictures she sent !”
“They were very kind and easy to set arrange boarding my dogs with them for two nights. Their dog is very well behaved and seemed happy to play with my dogs. My dogs loved playing in their yard and cuddling with them. Would happily bring my dogs back.”
“Absolutely wonderful kitty-sitter! My usual sitter had a family emergency so I booked Taylor just days before my trip. She was super understanding. Quick with responding to my initial booking inquiry and sent me photos of my sweet boy to ease my mind that he was safe and comfortable with her family while I was away. I will 100% be using her in the future. 10/10 would recommend to anyone.”
“Rachel and her husband Graham are fantastic! I was a nervous dog mom leaving my pup who needs twice a day meds. They were super communicative about giving him his meds throughout the week and sent lots of videos, pictures, and updates so I knew he was relaxed and having a good time. Shadow gets along great with their dog Dax and we look forward to more future playdates with him and the other visitors.”
“Fred was really nervous when we got there, but Brandi made him feel right at home. She took excellent care of him, maybe even spoiled him a little 🩷 and she sent us lots of pictures and videos. He definitely had a good time away from home. Thank you so much for watching him!! I highly recommend Brandi to watch your pup!”
