“Fantastic Family and care. My baby loved it and wasn't excited about going home which is a great sign of top care. Appreciate the love and care she got while we were gone. 100% recommend and we will use them again.”
“Britney and her family took such excellent care of our dog! They were attentive & responsive and sent us many photos and updates throughout the week. I know my dog enjoyed his time with them. We look forward to rover-ing with them again (and again)!”
“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.”
“Cristina is amazing! We just moved to the area and this was our first time boarding our fur baby. Cristina made our fur baby and me feel right at home. We will definitely be using her services again.”
About: I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and breeds! I have experience with mediation management and administration and am comfortable caring for medically complex or senior pets :) I work full time but do work from home about 75% of the time at least so I am home most of the day to care for your pets! I have two friendly dogs and two dog-savvy cats who get along with everyone! I can easily crate or separate animals into separate spaces in my home if the need arises
“Left our two large and active dogs with Garrett for a week while we went on vacation! They had the best time, we got pictures and updates everyday, and picked up clean dogs that were absolutely exhausted! We will definitely be looking to board with Garrett in the future!”
“Apollo had such an amazing time at Ben’s playing with their dog, Lily, this weekend. I really enjoyed receiving photos of them playing throughout the weekend. We will definitely book stays with them again in the future!”
“Tara did an amazing job of taking care of our 4 month old kitten while we went on vacation! She responds quickly and is flexible. She also sent lots of cute pictures to keep us updated on how our cat was doing. Would definitely book again!”
“Christina was amazing and sent pictures daily of my pup, Maple 🍁 during her stay. Communication was easy and would definitely recommend her for your dog sitting needs! 🐶”
“Michelle took great care of our Oscar boy while we went on vacation! It’s really hard for me to trust someone with him but I never once worried while he was in Michelle’s care. She provided great updates each day and gave him plenty of lovings! He also really enjoyed playing with cute little Emmett. She lives about 25 minutes away but it’s worth the drive for the peace of mind knowing he’s being treated so great. Thanks again, Michelle for being so wonderful to my baby!”
“We love Julie. We’ve left our girls with her 3 times now and will continue to do so when we travel. You can tell that she is sincere and I have no doubts that she takes the best care of our girls. When they come back home, they don’t even act like they missed us that much! 🤣”
“Lauren was great, I am always so nervous leaving my dog with sponge and she did great to keep me updated and sent a ton of photos so I know he was being well cared for!”
About: Hello! My name is Alex and I have had a dog (or two) my entire life. Right now, Hank is my main man. He's a boxer mix I rescued in Albuquerque, NM in 2022. We think he's 5 or 6, so let's go with 5! I love all animals and I love being active so your pet is sure to have the best walk and/or playtime hanging with me. I'm a very reliable, attentive, and trustworthy person and pet owner and I promise to make your life (and your pet's) all the easier by taking the stress out of being away from home. I currently work from home so I can give your pet all the time and attention they deserve. I promise your pet will return safe, happy, and ready to play with me again :) I am available every day of the week, with the majority of my time spent at home and around my neighborhood. I drop my children off in the mornings to either camp or school, and do pick up in the afternoons. As long as I can work around those pick ups and drop offs, I'm available! I have a fully fenced yard and a large, pet-friendly house (non-smoking). I have a neutered boxer mix named Hank who we rescued back in 2022 in Albuquerque, NM. Hank is very friendly, energetic, and curious and always enjoys playing with a new friend.
“I can see why Jessica has amazing reviews. We boarded our lil precious pup for a work trip and we got updates and pictures twice daily. Maple her golden doodle and her daughter were amazing with our lil Pup. The sweetest moment was when we picked her up her daughter was standing there with a lil card and toy for her new friend. I have the precious card on my refrigerator. It’s so nice to find good people to leave your pup with. We moved to area recently and we got lucky with finding Jessica and her family. We 100% recommend Jessica and her family to board your furry family member. Thank you:)”
“Many pictures, friendliest sitters we have worked with. Our dogs sometimes get anxious and don't eat when we leave them, but Jared and his wife always get them to eat and make them feel at home. So happy we found them!”

“I felt so comfortable leaving my kitty in Brittany’s hands. She was kind and knowledgeable, looked out for our house as well as our pet and communicated well. Would certainly recommend!”
“Kim was fabulous!! She sent photos and daily updates. Our cat usually hides for days but came right out for Kim and snuggled and stayed close. Our home was so well taken care of that we were able to get back and enjoy being home! We hope this is a win win win for all parties and plan to reach out again!”
“Angela was fantastic! Incredible communication and scheduling flexibility. It was a great comfort to know she was looking after our cats while we were away. Highly recommend. Will book again!”
About: I have been the neighborhood pet sitter for years. Neighbors trusted me with their senior dogs of 11 and 14, their dogs that had unending energy, puppies of around 1 or so, and cats and even fish too. I love going to the Greenville humane society and walking dogs of all kinds that have no home, and I have also worked on a couple farms taking care of dogs and cats and other farm animals as well. I am a hard worker and eager to take on new jobs. I work part time and am also involved in sports but I am flexible and willing to work with clients on times I can care for their pets as they need. I love spending time with dogs especially, so I’ll happily take time out of my day to make sure your pets get the care and attention they need. I do not offer in house services, as my house is not an adequate environment for other dogs, but I am more than willing to come to your house
“Our boy Walter was so happy to see Brianna every day— couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! She went above and beyond during our week away and was even willing to help me out with watering my new plants. Can’t recommend her enough for anyone needing TLC for their fur babies!”
“Nicole took great care of Dewey & Terra while we were on a cruise! She was always on time and went above and beyond in taking care of them. Definitely recommend booking her services!!”
“Although I was initially worried about leaving my cats for several days to go on a trip, Elizabeth put my mind at ease. When she came over to meet Jem and Nesta for the first time, she was very friendly and seemed very relatable since she is a cat mom as well. I was comforted by the detailed updates and adorable photos Elizabeth shared of my two kitties during her visits, and I definitely recommend booking services with her if you have not already :)”
“This sitter was awesome! We received pictures every day knew our older kitty was being well taken care of. We came home to a clean litter box and a swept floor! And a happy kitty! We are so thankful and will definitely try to book him again!”
“Katherine arrived on time everyday and made sure that my babies got their play time in. So glad that my pets got that extra love! I do wish that she had paid some attention to the litter box. But I can tell that she has all the makings of a great pet sitter. I would hire her again.”
About: If your pet loves attention, belly rubs, playtime, treats, or simply having someone nearby who truly cares we’ll get along great.

Expect lots of updates, adorable photos, and a pet who’s excited to see me again. Whether it’s cozy couch time, or keeping routines consistent, I’m here to give your pet the care and attention they deserve.
“I'm thankful for the reliable and friendly service. Kaileigh followed all the instructions I provided and made sure my cat was well-fed and comfortable during my absence.”
“Hannah took very good care of our elder-cat Buddy while we traveled recently. She spent time with him & administered medicine on each visit (and provided a full report & photos every day). We will definitely be booking with her again the next time we travel!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Apalache
“Michelle took amazing care of my puppy Sansa! It was my first time letting someone else watch her and Michelle made me feel reassured that Sansa was in great hands. She sent me plenty of pictures and videos throughout the day which gave me peace of mind. I will definitely bring Sansa back to stay with her! Thanks so much!”
“Megan was great. I had a good experience. This was my first time leaving my dog with someone. She sent me pictures of him. I was late in picking up my puppy and she was ok with it. I would definitely recommend and leave my puppy with her in the future.”
“Charlie seemed to have a great time for his first daycare stay at Brandi’s. She is very sensitive to his needs, sent several update photos, and he was very relaxed and happy when we picked him up. We already have this coming weekend booked for his first overnight. 😁”

I provide a safe, loving, and structured environment for your fur babies both in my home and in my clients’ homes. In my home, they are treated like part of the family and receive plenty of attention, supervision, playtime, and affection throughout the day.

I make it a priority to maintain each ones normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any special instructions from the owner. I also understand how important communication is, so I provide regular updates and photos to help parents feel comfortable and connected while they are away.

About: I've taken care of all kinds of dogs since I was a young child. The only time I didn't have a dog in my care was when I was in college living in dorm rooms, and even then I went to the local shelter to walk and love on puppies while mine were back home. I have experience training dogs and caring for puppies. I love all dogs, big, small and everything in-between! I am a stay at home Mom right now with young children. My schedule is pretty open except when I'm running around to pick a youngin' up a few times a day! I'd love to fill my extra time with helping care for your fur babies! I currently have three dogs of my own and all are big dogs. We have a nice, safe, fenced in backyard great for running around. I am willing to help your fur baby however you see best to make them and you most comfortable.
“Becca was able to get me scheduled within 12 hours of having daycare on short notice with a meet in greet also worked in the mix. My husky Conrad had such a fun time with their dogs he slept the entire evening. 10/10 would recommend to anyone with a happy, super energetic dog.”

I'll walk, feed, and care for your fur baby like they're my own. I'm a chef so my schedule is pretty flexible. I walk my dog ever morning and can be available for lunchtime walks or after work. I live near a nice dog park with lots of space and live in a dog friendly house with my husband. We can crate you dog if needed.
“Cristina was great.. kept me updated the whole time on how he was doing and sent lots of pics. Loki had so much fun and she kept him busy! He was ready for a nap when he got home lol. He will definitely be going to back.”
“Tara has worked out so well for my work schedule in the Spartanburg area! Blue has found another favorite sitter through Rover.com. Tara has been amazing with her responsible/professional yet loving care and communication throughout the day with me, I'm not sure Blue even wants to go home at the end of the day! I am praying that in 13 weeks if I make this job my permanent one, Tara will agree to be our permanent care giver for Blue. Hi, highly recommend Tara without any reservations.”

About: This is mine (Katy Snipes) and my husbands (Chad) account. We have had dogs and cats our whole life. We are comfortable with basic training and commands and love the old timers who need a little more TLC. We can’t wait to meet your fur babies. I (Katy) am currently a stay at home mom with my sweet first born son. I am very flexible during the week and would love to get on some walks with your pets. My husband offers available hands week day evenings as well as weekends. We have a fenced in back yard that our beagle loves to run around and play in. He is a spitfire when the energy is high, but can also lounge around the house when he knows it’s time to chill. We have a crate available if that is needed. However, our house is very pet friendly and open for your pet to make themselves at home.
About: 20+ years experience! I owned a pet sitting service years ago in Florida. It was my way as a single mother to supplement my teaching income. At one time I employed 11 veterinarian technicians as our popularity quickly grew. I retired from teaching recently and I’m now returning to my true love; caring for pets. I personally own two dogs. I adopted a standard poodle from a breeder two years ago. Sobe loves to snuggle and hike. He adores playing with other dogs. Ellie is a 13 year old Toy Poodle. She and Sobe are best buddies. I am available 7 days a week and can be flexible with times and frequency of visits. As, I have pets at home I CANNOT sleep overnight in client’s homes, but can make extra trips throughout the day and night to meet pet’s needs. Special requests will be considered. I am also available to care for a variety of pets. Safety comes first. (I am fully COVID vaccinated). I also rely heavily on detailed instructions from pet owners. I appreciate clear communication about each client and their pet’s needs in order to serve them best.

“Sabrina did two drop in visits/ walks for us while we were at work. She seemed like she bonded with Belle very well and Belle loved her. She got to give our pup the hour of a potty break and attention she needed when we couldn’t be there and we greatly appreciated that. We look forward to working with Sabrina again.”
About: I grew up with animals my whole life. I have 3 cats at home but love taking care of the pups! I have been helping my friend's with dog sitting over the years. I love playing with them and caring for them! I'm in school full time and have a couple of my courses online. My schedule is fairly flexible and I can work around different times. Whether that be early morning or later nights. I take caring for pets very seriously. I'm attentive to their behavior changes and possible ailments. I'm not one to sit on my phone during my visits. I engage, play, and love on the pets while I am there.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 12, watching my neighbors’ and friends’ dogs whenever they needed a reliable sitter. I also have experience house sitting and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I provide potty breaks every 2–4 hours, play fetch, go on walks, give plenty of attention, and stick to their usual routine as much as possible. I absolutely love dogs of all breeds and personalities, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with them. Whether it's playing ball, going to the park, or just relaxing together, I treat every dog like they're my own. Currently looking for a professional job at the moment so I have plenty of free time during the weeks/weekends to dog sit & house sit! Typically we feed our dogs twice a day. We let them out plenty and rather them get fresh air by letting them spend time outdoors in the backyard or sitting on the front porch. Then to finish off the day we either take them on a walk or I’ll take them to the park to throw the ball for them. And we of course give them lots of XOXO!

About: I have been housesitting/dog sitting for about 5 years now, and I LOVE it! I love to show the dogs I’m watching special attention and spoil them ever so slightly. When I’m housesitting while dog sitting, that’s a bonus! Not only do I spoil the dog, but also the dog owners. I enjoy making sure the home is nice and tidy before the homeowners come home. I’ve never had any troubles with any dogs before - we were just meant to be! When you need a dog/house sitter, you can rely on me to care for your fur baby as much as you would! I currently am working full-time through Rover, so your pets will be well taken care of and played with. I grew up having a dog, so remembering to let them out and feed them is practically second nature for me! If your dog has a special diet or feeding time, no problem! I take care of the pet as if I’m their owner, showing special care and love while you are away. If needed, I do have a fenced in back yard at my home to take the dog to play around. Even though the dog is not mine, I always make sure they feel safe and loved while you’re gone.
About: I have been around animals my entire life. We had a lot of animals growing up, including a dog, fish, hamsters, chicks, and a cat. I love animals and I love caring for them! I am mature, responsible, and very loving. I am flexible and available at the drop of a hat. I would love to provide pet care services for you, and will treat them like my own. I work fully remote and I am able to take your pets for frequent bathroom breaks, pay them love, cuddles, and attention! Pets make everything better! I give the pets lots of attention and cuddles! I make sure there are no small or dangerous objects within reach and ensure a nice, comfortable space for your pet to relax!
About: I have found that dogs prefer to be in their own envirement when their owner's are away, so most of my jobs are from repeat clients and referrals for in home stays. Your pet stays in their own environment which is less stressful. As requested by you, we go on walks, mini hikes, car rides, sleep in bed with them, just lounge and watch TV, administer special diets or medicines, drop off at another relative, etc. I am flexible. Your house stays safe with someone home, mail and newspapers picked up, etc. One client always has contractors over for their large remodel. I first became a dog sitter for my 2 grandpups, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels a boy and a girl. My daughter may be the most demaning, pickiest, list of rules person in the world. Her dogs are her children and I know yours are too. So please if you feel bad about leaving them, if you have a weird request I will understand. Since I am semi-retired I have more flexibility as well. I have had dogs who needed me to sit on the floor with them while they eat, want to sleep in same bed as me, constantly want to sit on my lap or next to me. I understand the power of treats, their special toys and love! It's stressful when the owners are away, but I am here to fill that void. Rest assured, I can send you updates as needed. Whether it's a daily overview from the visits on email, quick text and/or picture from the visit, quick phone call, just let me know. If you need to meet up prior to engagement we can, If you have a longer term request we can work out a discount as well. Let me know how I can help you out and make this less stressful for you and your loved one!

About: I’ve taken care of family pets for as long as I can remember. From baby to senior, I’ve taken care of dogs and cats. I currently have a bearded dragon so I have no issue with “exotic” animals. Family friends have let me pet sit. I walk family dogs at least twice a day depending on energy levels. I’m currently working part-time so my hours aren’t as flexible, I will require a minimum for 2 1/2 weeks prior to booking a stay so that I can minimize conflict between your pets and my work schedule :) I would be capable of feeding, and walking the pets. I can clean out litter boxes or enclosures. Play time so that the pet could release some energy. I could put the animal in a crate if it’s required after a certain time.
About: I have raised Shih Tzus for the past 15 years while at times also having cats, goats, and chickens. Currently have 1 fur baby- a 12 year old shih tzu who is very easy to get along with! I do have children but they are very used to animals and very sweet with them! I’m currently a stay at home mom with my newest baby so I will be home all day everyday with the exception of running quick errands. I have a nice sized large to play with your dog! We leash walk up and down the street and sometimes at the downtown park.

“Fantastic Family and care. My baby loved it and wasn't excited about going home which is a great sign of top care. Appreciate the love and care she got while we were gone. 100% recommend and we will use them again.”
“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.”
About: I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and breeds! I have experience with mediation management and administration and am comfortable caring for medically complex or senior pets :) I work full time but do work from home about 75% of the time at least so I am home most of the day to care for your pets! I have two friendly dogs and two dog-savvy cats who get along with everyone! I can easily crate or separate animals into separate spaces in my home if the need arises
“Left our two large and active dogs with Garrett for a week while we went on vacation! They had the best time, we got pictures and updates everyday, and picked up clean dogs that were absolutely exhausted! We will definitely be looking to board with Garrett in the future!”
“Apollo had such an amazing time at Ben’s playing with their dog, Lily, this weekend. I really enjoyed receiving photos of them playing throughout the weekend. We will definitely book stays with them again in the future!”
“Tara did an amazing job of taking care of our 4 month old kitten while we went on vacation! She responds quickly and is flexible. She also sent lots of cute pictures to keep us updated on how our cat was doing. Would definitely book again!”
“Michelle took great care of our Oscar boy while we went on vacation! It’s really hard for me to trust someone with him but I never once worried while he was in Michelle’s care. She provided great updates each day and gave him plenty of lovings! He also really enjoyed playing with cute little Emmett. She lives about 25 minutes away but it’s worth the drive for the peace of mind knowing he’s being treated so great. Thanks again, Michelle for being so wonderful to my baby!”
“Lauren was great, I am always so nervous leaving my dog with sponge and she did great to keep me updated and sent a ton of photos so I know he was being well cared for!”
About: Hello! My name is Alex and I have had a dog (or two) my entire life. Right now, Hank is my main man. He's a boxer mix I rescued in Albuquerque, NM in 2022. We think he's 5 or 6, so let's go with 5! I love all animals and I love being active so your pet is sure to have the best walk and/or playtime hanging with me. I'm a very reliable, attentive, and trustworthy person and pet owner and I promise to make your life (and your pet's) all the easier by taking the stress out of being away from home. I currently work from home so I can give your pet all the time and attention they deserve. I promise your pet will return safe, happy, and ready to play with me again :) I am available every day of the week, with the majority of my time spent at home and around my neighborhood. I drop my children off in the mornings to either camp or school, and do pick up in the afternoons. As long as I can work around those pick ups and drop offs, I'm available! I have a fully fenced yard and a large, pet-friendly house (non-smoking). I have a neutered boxer mix named Hank who we rescued back in 2022 in Albuquerque, NM. Hank is very friendly, energetic, and curious and always enjoys playing with a new friend.
“Many pictures, friendliest sitters we have worked with. Our dogs sometimes get anxious and don't eat when we leave them, but Jared and his wife always get them to eat and make them feel at home. So happy we found them!”
“Kashawna was kind, responsive, loving, and exactly what my four legged kid needed! Our baby is high maintenance with insulin twice a day, pain meds once a day, and snuggles all day. Kashawna and her family loved on her and took great care of her while I was on vacation. 10/10 recommend!”
“Jen demonstrated remarkable compassion and care for our dogs throughout their stay, creating a welcoming and enjoyable atmosphere for their initial boarding experience, reminiscent of their daily life. We enjoyed receiving daily updates with photos of our dogs while we were away.”
“Shireen was super sweet and professional! Definitely felt like my baby was in good hands! Thank you so much for take us so shortly and providing Xion with an awesome time!”
“Matthew and Heidi were extremely patient with Daisy. She was unexpectedly nervous but they provided a wonderful environment and adapted to her needs. I’m very grateful for their loving care and kindness.”
