“Thank you Jud and Nicole for the meet and greet with your family and your dog before we left Dora with y’all, it made us feel she was in safe hands and that she’d be right at home!”
“Lindsey & Aaron are so amazing. They took great care of our two hyper puppies and they came back so tired from all the fun they had. They always make sure to send us plenty of pictures as well. 10/10 Recommend!”
“This is my first time using a private sitter & it went okay. My dog Kobe is adjusting to being home, I’m military & Aiko was very patient with him despite his not so great behavior towards others dogs. She kept me updated with detailed information about his behavior along with pictures for the weekend stay. She gave my dog the attention he needed & let me know what she thought would be best for him moving forward. You should definitely book her if you need a dog sitter.”
“Kathy was an amazing dog sitter! Chloe has anxiety and doesn't do well in a crate, but Kathy took extra time and care to make sure she felt comfortable and adjusted during her stay. She sent daily videos and updates, which gave me peace of mind, and was always quick to respond to messages. It was so nice seeing Chloe having fun and playing with the other dogs in the backyard! I really appreciate the care and attention Kathy gave Chloe and would absolutely trust her to watch Chloe again. Highly recommend!”
“Lucas took such good care of our two boxers and seemed to really enjoy the time with them. Thank you so much Lucas for making our time away so much more comfortable. I felt like our babies were really in good hands.”
“Evelyn was an INCREDIBLE host! She kept us updated daily with pictures and videos of our sweet Sunny and was so easy to communicate with. We felt safe having Sunny with her and would definitely recommend her to anyone!”
“Assatta was amazing I am so grateful for her! She treated my dog like her own and that's all I ask for. She made sure to keep me updated with videos and pictures. I will definitely be booking again!”
“Rover Review Rewrite: Ms. Monica was absolutely wonderful! She cared for my dog as if she were her own. The regular updates and photos during her stay were greatly appreciated. I highly recommend her for anyone looking for top-notch care for their furry loved ones. On a special note, I've had good sitters before, but this time, returning home, I didn't have to deal with any lingering pet odors or mess. Ms. Monica's home was impeccably clean and fresh, you wouldn't even know pets had been there. That was a huge bonus for me!”
“Yentl was a God send!! Sage was very comfortable with her and was excited to see her again! You can definitely trust Yentl with your fur baby, she is amazing! Sage will definitely be back!”
“Lexie was excellent! Drop off was smooth and I know my dog enjoyed playing with the others! I got daily video updates which was so fun! Will absolutely be booking again. Thank you!”
“Janet is amazing. It is very clear that she is a knowledgeable dogsitter and she asks all the right questions. It's also clear that she loves my Lexie and take good care of her. Janet communicated with me throughout Lexie's stay with her and sent me pictures of how my girl was doing. Although it was clear that Lexie was ready to come home to Mom and Dad, it was also clear that she enjoyed her stay with Auntie J!”
About: I have grown up and taken care of dogs all my life! I have always lived with multiple dogs, and have even rescued 2! I love big and small dogs, I have experience with training, walking big dogs (pitbulls, labs, etc.), administering insulin, and dealing with dogs with epilepsy! One of my pups had diabetes, dementia, epilepsy, and anxiety, so I am well prepared for anything of that nature! I often pet sit for neighbors and friends for dogs of all different breeds! I’ve taken care of puppies, to toddlers, to senior dogs! I’m currently a student at USC, and take all my classes in the morning, so I basically have a free schedule after 1pm almost every day of the week! Weekends are more convenient for boarding, but I would still be able to make boarding during the week work as well! I also have gaps in my schedule, so during the week I am able to stop by throughout the morning to take care of your pups! I currently live in an apartment complex, so I do not have a yard for any pups, but I am able to take them outside on walks! We are allowed to have animals here so if need be I could have a dog stay with me, however I do not have any proper supplies for them in my apartment, and would need to be provided with such.
“Our trusted pet sitter informed us last minute that she was unable to care for our family dog. With an international trip approaching, I felt a tinge of desperation. Out of options, I found Rover. Shifting through the many profiles, my anxieties about enlisting the help of someone I had not met were quickly quieted upon reading the countless positive reviews left for Niagara. From the beginning communications until pick up, she was accommodating, courteous, and quick to respond. From the moment we dropped off until the day we picked up, we received daily updates and affirmations of our sweet Breezy. This included what I like to call “proof of life” pictures and videos, which were really more than that. They showed how well cared for he was and how happy and content he remained in her care. As someone that has been very peculiar and selective about who cares for our family dog, I don’t feel that five stars is even enough for Niagara. I can’t recommend her enough and I would be honored to secure her services in the future!”
“Charlotte was so nice and patient with our senior pup. Minerva seemed to have a lot of fun in all of the pictures we received. We felt so comfortable leaving her with Charlotte while we were gone and would easily recommend her to anyone we know!”

“Christina is a kind, extra special human being. During forecasted inclement weather she went out of her way to make sure fur babies were fed. She is a gem and I would highly recommend her to take care of your babies🐾💕”
“Katie when above and beyond with my three cats. She was able to put eyes on Cinder and he hides from everyone. She swept up the litter box area and even took out the trash! I will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Moe was an exceptional cat-sitter, and she dealt with a last-minute crisis with such ease and professionalism. Just before I left for my trip, my cat suffered a slight injury that required medication and rest. Moe gave my cat the medication and attention he needed to remain calm and, most importantly, get well. I highly recommend Moe for your pet setting needs.”
About: I've been providing large animal care for over eight years. Animal care brings me great happiness, and I'm excited to meet and get to know each fur baby that I'd be lucky enough to care for.
“Grace checked in our kitty two days while we were away. She is was on time with her visits and communications, she fed our cat, took great phots, gave our cat lots of snuggles and play time. She also made sure her litter box was okay. We appreciated Grace and her willingness to watch our cat. I would recommend her.”
“Kristin is awesome! I booked check ins for Christmas day and the morning after. I'm so happy she could check on my two cats. She had mentioned to me at the meet and greet that this was her busiest Christmas week yet with a lot of bookings. I have worked in retail for a few years now and Christmas week can be so overwhelming, especially with now that I travel for family while having pets at home. I am so appreciative that she was able to show them care and attention even with one of the craziest weeks of the year. I had booked her in advance but even then I was worried and anxious about this. My job had me scheduled christmas eve, and then I was taking a midnight train to Florida that night. Plus this would be the first night that my cats were alone together without me. I'm just so happy that Kristin could check on them, they were happy and comfortable seeing her while I was gone. I am really thankful for her and she's a great sitter.”
About: I grew up in 4H taking care of animals as one of my first chores. I had dogs, cats, horses, goats, chickens/other fowl, mice, fish, lizards, and the sweetest sugar glider I trained to glide to me. I have experience with young animals as well as old with a range of disabilities and medical needs.
About: I’m Krystal — a lifelong cat lover who has cared for cats of all ages, breeds, and personalities since I was young. From playful kittens to senior snuggle bugs, I understand that every cat is unique and deserves care that fits their personality and comfort level. I’m loving, reliable, and well-trained in handling feline needs — from feeding routines and medications to litter box maintenance (no mess ever scares me!). My goal is always to keep your cat feeling safe, happy, and stress-free while you’re away. With years of hands-on experience and genuine compassion for animals, I treat every cat like my own — with patience, affection, and respect for their boundaries. Whether your kitty craves cuddles or prefers quiet company, I’ll make sure they feel loved and cared for every step of the way. ❤️
About: I’ve been caring for cats for over 5 years and understand that every cat has a unique personality. Whether your cat is playful, shy, or prefers their own space, I’ll make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’ll follow your care instructions carefully, provide fresh food and water, clean litter boxes, give plenty of attention when wanted, and send photo updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I’m a full-time dog groomer and lifelong animal lover with plenty of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I understand that cats have their own personalities and routines, and I take time to make them feel comfortable and secure. Whether your pet needs cuddles, playtime, or quiet company, I provide dependable, loving care while you’re away
About: As a cat mom of 3 and someone who’s grown up with cats my whole life, I really get how different every cat is. Some are super social and playful, others need space and a slow approach, and most are somewhere in between. I’m comfortable meeting them wherever they are and letting them warm up at their own pace. I’m used to all the day-to-day stuff like feeding schedules, litter box care, playtime, basic grooming, nail trims, and giving oral medication when needed. Through my experience with Pawmetto Lifeline, I’ve also worked with cats who are shy, anxious, or adjusting to new environments, so I’m very patient and always try to keep things calm and stress-free for them.
“Angel is truly an angel. She is responsible and punctual. She took care of my cat Nusa for around two weeks. She answered all my texts and updated me on Nusa’s well being. She made sure Nusa has food and water at all times. I will definitely hit her up next time we are out of town.”

“Hannah was awesome with my dog. She gave me routine updates. On day 2 of her watching him he didn’t even hesitate to get out of the car. I will use her again anytime I need service. I highly recommend her.”
“Isabella and her family are so nice and pleasant. They send pictures and keep me updated with Jett’s activities during the day. He gets excited when I mention her name which is a good sign.”
“First time dog parent. First time Rover app user. So glad Monty & I connected with Raquel. From first point of contact, meet and greet, day one and day two of doggy care was absolutely amazing. Raquel is a genuine, authentic, dog care provider. Communication ✅. Care Expectations Met ✅. Very Responsive✅. Professional✅. Personable✅. She’s passionate about caring for dogs and it is shown through her attentiveness to the well-being of dogs while under her care. Raquel’s sitter etiquette is superb. To see her love on Monty at drop-off and pick up gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was being left in good hands. To make things even better she shared updates via pics and videos throughout the day on each doggy daycare visit. Hands down, we’ll be re-booking Raquel. #RaquelROCKS ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Super sweet with my pup. You can tell he treats every dog like his own. I needed an emergency sitter and he had no problem taking my little girl last minute for a couple of hours. Highly recommend.”
“I like that I was able to take a tour, inside and out, of where my girls would be during daycare. The property was kept clean and well maintained. I appreciated the pictures and updates throughout the day. I had an overall very positive experience and would definitely recommend.”
“Andrea did a great job with Daisy! She was able to administer her medication and paid careful attention to detail. Thank you Andrea. We will see you soon for our next doggy day care”
“Jud and Nicole are great! Dexter stayed with them for a day and with the very first picture they sent us just a few minutes after we dropped him off, I could see how happy and comfortable he was with them. He also had lots of fun with his new friend Baxter. Now we can rest assured that our baby is in great hands when we go on a trip in a few weeks.”
“My husband and I had to take a long day trip to house hunt and needed someone to watch our 11 week old puppy while we were gone. Daisy will be our go-to forever now! She treated Rookie like her own, giving him love, treats, respecting how we were training him, and kept us updated throughout the day. I was worried about leaving my puppy and having him regress, but he thrived there and didn’t have one accident! I know this is due to Daisy being attentive and so kind. It was also a dreary, rainy, muddy day and she just embraced it and let the dogs have fun too. My pup and her pup had a blast. Can’t wait to Rookie to spend time with Daisy again!”

“Eileen was a very pleasant lady and great with Daisy. We felt very comfortable leaving Daisy with her, who had a good time with her dog. The fenced backyard was great for Daisy to roam around. I would recommend Eileen to anyone who needs a reliable pet sitter.”
“Teia had a great time and came home ready for a nap. Lyndsay sent beautiful pictures which we will treasure. And really appreciate her flexibility and agreeing to our last minute request for daycare. See you soon!”

I hope to use her again!”

“Bella-Rose is my 18 week old, lovable Cavapoo fur baby. Christina is her first other human exposure besides me and Bella's dad, being that she just got all her vaccines. I unexpectedly had to cover my 24 hour business this month and knew I would need help with Bella. I signed on with Rover and Christina responded within 5 minutes. I was nervous at first but upon meeting Christina, I knew that Bella was in good hands. Chrisrina is on time, professional, and very loving and patient with Bella-Rose. I had no idea that these type services existed, being a new puppy mom, but I am glad I found Rover and Christina. I will definitely be using her in the future and I highly recommend her. She is great!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 9 years old and have experience with dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I had a Labrador Retriever and Weimaraner mix who was absolutely precious. She passed away on April 3, 2026, which was very difficult, but caring for her taught me a lot about responsibility, patience, and the importance of providing dogs with love and attention. I currently have a Boxer, a Cocker Spaniel, and a Chihuahua, so I’m comfortable handling both large and small breeds. Through caring for my own dogs and helping family members and friends with theirs, I’ve gained experience with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, basic grooming, administering medications when needed, and making sure dogs feel safe and comfortable in their environment. I’m familiar with different energy levels and temperaments, from active, playful dogs who need plenty of exercise to older or more relaxed dogs who prefer a calmer routine. Family and friends know they can rely on me to provide dependable and attentive care for their pets. I always make sure every dog is happy, well-fed, exercised, and given plenty of love and attention while their owners are away. My goal is to treat every dog as if they were my own and ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for at all times. I currently work part time and attend college classes, so I understand the importance of being organized and responsible with my time. My classes are on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM, and I typically work Friday evenings. My work schedule is posted about a week and a half in advance, which allows me to communicate my availability clearly and plan ahead for pet care. Outside of those commitments, I have a flexible schedule and spend most of my time at home. I am committed to providing reliable care, regular updates, and plenty of attention to every pet. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic medications, or simply keeping a dog company, I make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owner is away. I have a securely fenced backyard where dogs can safely play, explore, and get plenty of exercise. I also have three friendly dogs who are well socialized and enjoy meeting new canine friends. I always supervise introductions and interactions to make sure every dog feels comfortable and safe. For dogs that are crate trained or need their own space, I have both a small crate and a large crate available. I understand that every dog has different needs and routines, and I do my best to accommodate them. Whether your dog loves to play, relax, or stick to a specific schedule, I’ll make sure they receive the care, attention, and comfort they deserve while you’re away.

I’ve cared for pets at every stage of life, from playful puppies to senior cats and dogs, and I’ve learned so much from the pets of family members and neighbors along the way. For the past few years, I’ve been pet sitting for close family friends, and it’s something I truly love. Whether your pet needs extra playtime, gentle cuddles, or just a reliable routine, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away.

About: I’ve been around all types/sizes of dogs! I truly love taking care of animals and always prioritize their safety, care, and needs first! I provide a stress free, calm, environment with low noise and a great fenced in backyard to play in! I have taken care of many of my friends/neighbors pets and also grew up with two dogs of my own so I know all the responsibility it takes! I have also volunteered at my local animal shelter for the past few years where I had to pass a test specifically on caring for dogs and reading their body language! I’m currently in school and working part-time, but in my free time I’d love to spend time caring for your pets! My schedule is also flexible enough that I can do weekly visits as I am very reliable and dependable. I’m dedicated to making your dog(s) feel as comfortable as possible! I’ll always keep them on a leash and be super mindful of my surroundings, double-checking to make sure all doors are closed and their harnesses are securely fastened. I also send daily picture updates and rover cards to keep you in the loop about how much your pet is loved and well cared for!
About: I’ve loved dogs my whole life and have always been around them, even as a child. My family owns a senior 70-lb golden retriever, and while I was in graduate school for two years, I had the opportunity to care for him full-time while my family was traveling. I handled his daily walks, trips to the dog park, playtime and socializing with other dogs, and, of course, plenty of cuddles and companionship! I also have a furry five year old mixed husky and alaskan malamute and she is right around 65lb so I’m comfortable with larger dogs (or any size for that matter) and genuinely enjoy spending time with them! More than anything, I treat every dog like they’re part of the family and want them to feel safe, happy, and cared for while they’re with me. I just graduated from Physician Assistant school and am looking for a part-time job while I wait for my position to start in January 2027! I have a very open schedule from Monday-Friday and some weekends. I will prioritize every dog's safety, comfort, and routine. I will follow your instructions closely and make sure your pet feels comfortable in their own environment. I’ll provide plenty of attention and playtime, and make sure they have fresh water and anything else they may need. I’m a very organized person and will be respectful of your home and keep everything clean and tidy! Most importantly, I’ll treat your furry companion with the same care, patience, and love I would give my own!

About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life, especially bulldogs and other large dog breeds, so I’m very comfortable handling dogs of different sizes and personalities. I also have experience caring for cats. In addition, I’ve watched neighbors’ small dogs while they were on vacation and have volunteered helping take care of dogs at Final Victory Animal Rescue. I’m active, dependable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that’s walking, playing, or making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. My schedule is widely open for the summer! There is no doubt I can fit your pet into my schedule whether that be on the weekends or throughout the week! I always prioritize making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their normal environment. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, and house rules to help keep pets stress-free. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and supervision while also keeping the home clean and secure. I’m attentive to pets’ behavior and safety on walks, around other animals, and in new environments. Having grown up around both large and small dogs, I’m comfortable handling different temperaments and energy levels. My goal is to make owners feel confident that their pets are being treated like family while they’re away
About: I’ve been dog sitting since I was 11. I’ve cared for dogs from very small to large, and I have never had any issues! My neighbors and family rely on me heavily to care for their pups! I am currently a full-time student at UofSC, but I am very flexible on the weekends and have a fairly open availability during the week!! When I dog sit, I always take the dogs on walks, play with them, give them treats, and snuggle with them! Depending on the animal, I sometimes put them in their crate as well!

“I really do appreciate Nick! He always comes through when it comes to Mateo. I recently had surgery and had to come back down to Columbia, and he was able to take Mateo for me so I could have some time to adjust to my recovery. I’m forever grateful for him! He communicates so well, sends pictures, keeps you updated, and always lets you know what’s going on. He’s truly everything you could want in someone taking care of your dog, and I always feel comfortable knowing Mateo is with him.”
“I’m always a little nervous leaving my little guy with a dog sitter, because he tends to be a little anxious and antisocial, even a little sassy. But Sally was amazing with making him feel comfortable and gave him so much love! He even made a little friend with one of the other pups staying with her. It’s such a relief to know he’s in such good hands. Thank you Sally!”
“Assatta was amazing I am so grateful for her! She treated my dog like her own and that's all I ask for. She made sure to keep me updated with videos and pictures. I will definitely be booking again!”
“Yentl was a God send!! Sage was very comfortable with her and was excited to see her again! You can definitely trust Yentl with your fur baby, she is amazing! Sage will definitely be back!”
“I am so happy Emma was available last weekend! My dog, Stella, can be really skittish around new people but she warmed up to Emma immediately. Emma spoiled Stella while I was away...walks, visiting the dog park, puppacinnos, etc. I don't think Stella was ready to come home! Very happy with my experience and would absolutely recommend Emma.”
“Thank you, Savannah! Opie had a quick overnight trip with Savannah and Chandler. Very responsive. Easy peasy and Opie is a happy camper. Appreciate the happy home with a playmate for Opie to stay at.”
“Janet is amazing. It is very clear that she is a knowledgeable dogsitter and she asks all the right questions. It's also clear that she loves my Lexie and take good care of her. Janet communicated with me throughout Lexie's stay with her and sent me pictures of how my girl was doing. Although it was clear that Lexie was ready to come home to Mom and Dad, it was also clear that she enjoyed her stay with Auntie J!”
“Charlotte was so nice and patient with our senior pup. Minerva seemed to have a lot of fun in all of the pictures we received. We felt so comfortable leaving her with Charlotte while we were gone and would easily recommend her to anyone we know!”
“Eileen was great with Daisy. First time we left Daisy for 3 days to a sitter and we felt very comfortable with Eileen knowing that our baby is going to be looked after well. Thanks Eileen. Daisy will definitely return.”
“Susan was fantastic! She sent daily updates and made drop off and pick up very easy. She accomodated a last minute scheduling change due to Hurricane Michael, and I could not be more grateful for her flexibility and the care she provided for our girl. Will definitely use her again.”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life and couldn’t imagine it any other way. My cat Chanel has been with me for 5 years and my cocker spaniel Bentley for 1 year. I’ll treat your pets like my own with plenty of walks, cuddles, and love. I know how important it is to feel at ease when you’re away from your fur babies and I’ll make sure they’re happy and cared for. I have a flexible schedule and am able to go home throughout the day and check on your pet if I’m not already home. I am usually home all weekend and if not then your pet is welcome to join my activities! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a pet‑friendly apartment community with three dog parks, giving plenty of safe space to run and play. I’ll always keep a close eye on them, provide fresh water, and make sure they feel happy, loved, and cared for in a secure environment.
“Brittany is wonderful! My dogs usually won’t eat much while we are away from them on vacation. Well they actually ran out of food, and Brittany was so sweet to go pick up more for them. The pictures every day proved how comfortable and safe they felt with her. I have found my sitter!”
About: Hi there! I'm Delaney. Over the past year, I have fostered 2 dogs and 6 cats! Each foster was a new learning experience, gaining insight into animals boundaries and needs! Often having sick or injured rescue fosters, I have experience with giving topicals and oral medications. I have always had dogs, dealing with puppies up until elderly care. For many years I have been a sitter for my neighbors 2 cats and one dog. It has become a passion to help and take care of dogs and cats, and I hope to be everything you need for a pet sitting experience! I will be heading back to Columbia SC on August 16th and won’t be in Annapolis for pet sitting anymore! I am available all summer long, the only time I am unavailable is 9am to 12pm Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, while I am taking an EMT class at AACC! I usually wake up early, so I’ll be available before and after this class!! I am very active, love to take long walks or runs. I am very open to following pet owners lead. Often staying in their own home is often better for a pets routine to reduce stress. I am available to give pets company during daytime, and if needed overnight. I know how stressful being away from your pet is, and sending updates is crucial!! I am very communicative, respectful, and clean.
“Aubriana was fantastic! She was super responsive and kept me updated throughout the stay with great pictures and videos. My pets were exceptionally well taken care of, and I couldn't be more thankful. I'm so impressed with her care and would absolutely book her again!”
