About: I have had dogs and cats since I was little allowing me to care for different pets at all ages. I have had Dachshunds and a Mini Australian Shepherd giving me the chance to learn how to best care for dogs of different temperaments. I love and am able to cater to pets of all ages and their needs!! I am attending MUSC for SLP school so I am only able to help pet parents Downtown unless able to drop off at my house. I am available around my class and work schedule during the week. I do not have an exact schedule yet but will try my best to be flexible! I will give your pets lots of attention and love. I know it’s hard for pets when they anre away from home so I will try to stick to their usual schedule as much as possible. I will treat them like they are my own pets!!
“Jayde was great and super helpful. She sent pictures and let us know everything was great with our dog. He needed some medicine administered during this time and she ensured he got it and made sure he was eating. Our dog seemed to enjoy his time with her. Drop off and pickup was super easy from her place as well”
“We can't say enough good things about Jennifer! She took such wonderful care of Sydney, and it was clear how much she genuinely loves what she does.

Agreed to let me come to meet him before the commitment to ease any concerns about leaving our dog for a full week for the first time :) Was incredibly professional and communicative which made us feel confident that Woods was in capable, caring hands. Would not hesitate to leave your dog in his care. Picked him up today happy, heathy and tired :) Thank you Jesse.”
“I have used Rover a lot over the years and I am not exaggerating when I say that Taylor is the best Rover we have ever used! She took incredible care of our two dogs while we were out of town.

Taylor is a true dog lover and so kind, I can’t recommend her more!”
“Fallon and RJ are heaven sent! My dog was well taken care of tired out when picked up which is always a plus!

About: I work from home, and I am able to provide constant supervision, homemade treats, daily exercise, dog park adventures, and a friendly playmate in Alvin my Boston Terrier. I work from home Monday through Friday 7 AM to 5 PM which means your dog will have plenty of attention, supervision and companionship through the day with my Boston terrier Alvin who loves making new friends and enjoys having a playmate during the day. We typically take (3) 15 minute walk through the neighborhood each day and visit the Charleston County Dog park for about 45 minutes most afternoons, giving the dogs extra time to socialize, explore and exercise. Alvin is my first dog and I’ve dedicated a lot of time to learning and caring about his canine needs I have gone online and taking dog training courses and Alvin has learned lots of fun tricks Alvin and I are also learning to paddleboard. My house feature a fenced in backyard (fence is new) and a doggie door leading into a sunroom, giving dogs the freedom to move between indoor and outdoors. I also have a 12-year-old cat, who prefers to stay in the master bedroom but does have some interaction with the visiting dogs. Your pet safety and comfort are my top priorities. Freshwater is always available in large bowls that are clean daily and refilled multiple times throughout the day. I also keep basic pet care on hand. Alvin is friendly playful and enjoy spending time with other dogs. We take regular neighborhood walks and visit the Dog park several times each week allowing additional exercise, and socialization. While I’m comfortable on routine care instruction I’m not able to administrate medicines that require special handling or medical procedures. Please discuss any care needs before booking to ensure I can provide the best experience for your pet.
About: I’m a registered nurse with a lifelong love for dogs, which means safety, reliability, and attention to detail are always my top priorities. I had my own dog for 14 years, so I have extensive experience caring for senior dogs, including administering medications, recognizing changes in behavior or health, and providing extra patience and comfort. Having moved here from Philly, I truly miss having a dog of my own, so I treat every pet I care for like family. I’m calm, observant, and dependable, and I’m especially comfortable with routines, special instructions, and pets who need a little extra care or reassurance. Whether it’s walks, overnight stays, or drop-ins, your dog will be safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine. As a nurse, I work three 12-hour shifts per week, which gives me several full days off where I’m completely available for walks, drop-ins, and overnight care.I plan my schedule carefully and only accept bookings I can fully commit to, so your pet will always get consistent attention, exercise, and care. I’m happy to work around your dog’s routine and communicate clearly so you always know your pet is in good hands. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or yours. As a nurse, I’m highly attentive, detail-oriented, and trained to notice subtle changes in behavior, appetite, or energy levels. I carefully follow all routines and instructions provided, including feeding schedules, medications, leash preferences, and house rules. In a client’s home, I respect your space and keep your pet’s environment clean, calm, and familiar. In my home, pets are supervised, never left unattended for long periods, and kept in a secure, comfortable setting. I use leashes at all times outdoors unless otherwise instructed and avoid dog parks unless explicitly approved. I prioritize clear communication and will provide regular updates, photos, and messages so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness always come first.

“Katie was so sweet with our two cats! You can tell she loved on them as her own 🐾 Every visit she gave a detailed message and sent plenty of pictures.

Grateful to have found her and will definitely use her again!”

About: I’ve had extensive experience caring for cats throughout all stages of life, from energetic kittens to senior cats needing extra love and attention. I grew up with three cats of my own and cared for them from kittens to seniors. I have experience with long term cat sitting.

I understand that every cat has a unique personality and routine, and I’m happy to accommodate! I would love the chance to love and care for your fur baby!

About: I’ve been a cat owner since 2015, when my family got our male cat, Brody. Over the years, I’ve gained plenty of hands-on experience with feeding, litter box care, playtime, and understanding the different routines and personalities cats can have. I’ve also house-sat for my sister’s cat, Oliver, caring for him in his own home while she was away. I know cats can take time to warm up to someone new, so I’m happy to give them their space and attention on their terms while making sure they’re comfortable and well cared for.

“Emily and Tarek were absolutely wonderful with Zuess. You can tell right away that she genuinely cares about dogs and pays attention to their personalities, not just the routine parts of care. Zuess came home happy, relaxed, and clearly very loved. She kept me updated, made me feel comfortable while I was away, and treated him like he was her own. 5 stars <3”

I don’t have many rules and would just like for the fur babies to be comfortable in the new environment!
“Gabriella watched my little fur baby while I took in the sites in downtown Charleston. She is very close to the sightseeing and it was very convenient. She took good care of him and I will definitely be booking her again when I go back.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. From walking, to dropping in, to overnight stays, I’ve done it all! I have experience with dogs as young as 8 weeks old and as old as 18 years old. I have a dog of my own now! He’s very kind and loves all animals. He will be present during all stays at my home. Happy to schedule a meet and greet to ensure our pets get along! I’ve been in Charleston for almost 3 years and work from home for an advertising agency in Manhattan. However, I can never be too busy and I would love to take care of your animals in my free time. I have a very organized home with a yard. I am an incredibly responsible caretaker and punctual to your schedule and your dog’s needs. I work from home so I am able to provide thorough care.
“Kaylie and Johnathan were wonderful!!! They helped care for our foster puppies during a very busy week and I seriously cannot say enough good things about them. Highly recommend!”
“This was the first time I used Kim & Dylan for doggy daycare for Reba & Willow. We did have a meet & greet prior to our first day of doggy daycare & They were amazing with my dogs. Kim & Dylan were very accommodating & attentive to Reba & Willow. Reba can be a bit nervous and Willow can be a bit over excited and they made both dogs feel comfortable. Both dogs were very happy & tired when I picked them up. I highly recommend Kim & Dylan and I would not hesitate to use them for doggy daycare (again) or boarding.”
About: I recently moved to Charleston from Washington DC. Looking forward to meeting new doggie friends as it was heartbreaking to leave my pups behind for move. My apartment building has a fully fenced in dog park for off leash play time and exercise. My husband used to work for a dog rescue shelter so we are both dog lovers. I’ve cared for 1-3 dogs at a time, cats, Guinea pigs, fish, and hermit crabs. If you are looking for an awesome dog cuddler I have references for you to check :) I have experience with senior dogs, puppies, sick dogs, and high energy dogs. While I am caring for your dog I will keep open lines of communication with texts, pictures, etc. My goal is to make both you and your dog feel at ease when being apart from each other. I genuinely enjoy the time I spend with the dogs I watch and have made many friends with the owners over the years since we’re in contact so much. Thank you for considering me to take care of your bestest friend/dog child! I have 1 puppy who is very social and playful. Dog must be friendly with others and not have separation anxiety since I work full time. Currently I am home full time so I can provide plenty of walks, playtime, high energy play at the dog park, and day care as needed I have a fenced in dog park but if your dog isn’t the dog park kind there is plenty of green space around the apartment building.
About: I’ve been around dogs for most of my life and have years of experience caring for my own pets as well as pets for friends, family, and others. I understand how important it is to have someone you can truly trust with your pet. I provide attentive and loving care, including walks, feeding, playtime, companionship, medication when needed, and plenty of cuddles and attention. I’m happy to follow each pet’s individual routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their family is away. I have a flexible weekly schedule, which makes pet care easy to fit into my routine. I’m able to plan my days around walks, drop in visits, and longer stays, and I have flexibility during both weekdays and weekends. This allows me to spend quality time with the pets I care for without making them feel rushed. I’m also happy to work around your pet’s usual schedule as much as possible, whether that means morning walks, midday check ins, evening visits, or overnight care. I always want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I follow their usual routines as closely as possible, respect their space and personality, and make sure they get plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and cuddles. I’ll treat your home and your pets with the same care and respect I would my own.
“Jenna did an amazing job taking care of my two doggos while we took an out of town day trip! I really wanted someone we can trust to ensure my 16 year old shitzu is calm and comfortable while we’re away … he’s developed separation anxiety on top of having dementia and is half blind and deaf now and can work himself up into a tizzy when we’re away from the house for more than an hour! I am so thankful that Chewy was well taken care of and it was such a relief not to worry about him! We will definitely work with Jenna again!!”
“Charles B. was willing to watch our dog Zeus last-minute while we were on vacation and kept in contact, giving updates throughout the time he watched him. We really appreciate his kindness and flexibility!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was born. I currently have a four year old dog of my own, so I know the importance of pet care; from walking, playing, and training. I work from home Monday to Friday from 9 AM to 5 PM which allows me the flexibility to fit pet care into my daily routine. I primarily work from the clients’ home, but if work from my home is needed please let me know before hand. The house is already dog proof and there is a dog park within my complex, so this shouldn’t be a problem.
About: Working remotely gives me the opportunity for plenty of company, attention, and potty breaks throughout the day. For weekend getaways or overnight stays, your pup will be spoiled with care and companionship to make your time away as stress-free as possible. I grew up in an animal-loving family (turtles, goats, donkeys, you name it!) and have experience with dogs from puppies to adults, including shepherds, pointers, cockapoos, and now my own golden. And of course, there’s Winnie! She LOVES making new friends. For pups who enjoy other dogs, she’s the perfect built-in playmate for supervised socialization, playtime, and plenty of zoomies! Working from home gives me the flexibility to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day, with easy access to potty breaks, walks, playtime, and whatever routine they’re used to. I provide a safe, comfortable environment with access to dog parks and a safe neighborhood/complex for walks. I’m happy to accommodate your dog’s routine, including crate time if needed, and provide plenty of supervision and care.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind from big Goldens to little Yorkies. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on my pet sitting services for 25 years. My husband and I both work from home so we have lots of time to dedicate to your pup! We live across the street from a large park and within walking distance from a beautiful walking trail to take your pup on daily walks. We have a very sweet black lab mix to keep your pup company. Every day we do three walks with lots of time for play at home in between. I’ll also make sure to take lots of pictures to keep you updated on your dog.
About: I have many years of experience watching, walking, and caring for dogs of all sizes and breeds! Miss having a dog of my own and looking to care for others dogs before I have my own :) I love to have any and all dogs around! Please reach out with any specific accommodations you are looking for I currently work from home and am free to walk to dog sit during the day, night, and most weekends. My schedule is usually flexible I live in a house with a spacious yard to hang out in. No fence around the yard so would keep the dog leashed if needed!
About: Growing up we always had a family dog(s) and when I wasn't caring for my own pups, I was helping watch pups of friends and neighbors! I work from home, so your pups will always be attended to! Because of my work from home schedule, I am open to same day appointments. I believe in always having safety precautions to ensure the pups don't get into trouble such as putting away hazards including things on the floor/counters.
“Thanks so much for my day and being so patient with the “grandma” person. She’s overly careful with me. I told her how cool you were and can’t wait to go back! Your new friend, Keko.”
About: I love animals! Basically, I have always had a dog or been around them. I had a 100-lb Giant Schnauzer for 5.5 years. She passed away in August 2016 from untreatable T-Cell Lymphoma, and I miss her dearly. She was my sidekick and went virtually everywhere with me. I can't pass a dog without wanting to pet him/her. Most of my friends have dogs or cats, and they all love me. I'm not just saying that. I work from home, and I live close to the Waterfront Park in Mount Pleasant. I'm active, fit, and can handle all types of dogs. I miss taking my dog to the dog park and beach, and would love to give you a hand with your fur baby. I was always a "helicopter parent" when it came to watching over my dog, because I understand the responsibility that caring for a dog requires. Your dog is definitely safe with me!

About: I grew up in a home with three dogs, so caring for pups of all sizes and personalities feels like second nature to me. Whether your dog loves long walks, snuggles, or playtime, I know how to tune in to what makes them feel happy and safe. I live on James Island within easy walking distance of parks and dog-friendly paths, and I also have a clean yard that’s perfect for supervised outdoor play. With no other pets in the home, your dog gets my full attention and a calm, comfortable space to relax. I’d love to give your pup the same care and affection I grew up giving my own! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I can provide early-morning walks or drop-ins before work, lunch break check-ins/walks, and I’m home by 5 p.m., so evening walks, drop-ins, and playtime are always an option. Fridays and weekends are wide open for more flexible care. Your pet’s routine is important to me, and I’m happy to work around the schedule that keeps them happiest. I make safety and comfort my top priorities, whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in yours. I live in a very walkable neighborhood close to several parks, which makes safe, enjoyable outings easy. At home, I have a secure yard perfect for quick supervised potty breaks. I follow each pet’s individual routine and am comfortable using crates if that’s what your dog is used to or feels safest in. My goal is always to create a calm, structured environment where your pet feels secure, understood, and well cared for

Ever since I was young, I became super interested in watching shows about pet care on animal planet and studied about the many dog breeds; learning about their history, what type of environment is well suitable for them and unique characteristics they might have. This has led me to gain a ton of knowledge on a bunch of breeds which is super helpful when I meet your pet because I have a basic understanding of them. I also love to workout a lot and have always made sure that the pets I have sat stay healthy and active. In terms of my schedule, I am pretty flexible and will make sure that your pet has the best experience on our walks. I have a super flexible schedule and am able to provide the best attention to your pet as well as providing them with good long walks to keep them healthy and attain to their schedules Since I do overnight stays some clients provide me with certain schedules which I follow carefully to make sure they are comfortable and joyful.

“I highly recommend Karlie for your pet care needs. She took the time to make sure that my dog, who can be shy and anxious at first, was comfortable. I know Wilbur had a great time with her. Karlie is dependable, and I am very thankful for her help.”
About: Most of the dogs I’ve cared for have been 35 pounds and up, so I’m really comfortable with bigger pups. I’ve stayed in people’s homes to watch their dogs and always try to keep things calm and familiar for them while their owners are away. I’ve also given dogs medication when needed, whether it’s pills or eye drops, and I’m always patient and gentle with them. I think what really sets me apart is how much I pay attention to each dog’s personality. Some want long walks and playtime, others just want company and cuddles. I adjust to whatever they need. I treat every dog as if they were my own and I make sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved. I have a super flexible schedule because I take online classes from home while working toward getting into nursing school. I also do occasional Uber shifts, but my main focus is my nursing studies, so I’m home most of the day. This flexibility allows me to easily fit in dog walks or stay overnight for pet sitting. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, and it fits perfectly with my day. I only offer care in the pet’s own home, where they’re most comfortable and feel safe. I do my best to stick closely to their normal routine, whether that’s feeding times, walks, play, or downtime. I like to keep things calm and familiar so the pets feel secure while their owners are away. I also make sure to keep the home clean and cared for, and I’m happy to send updates so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.

Otherwise I may have another dog that I am caring for when your baby is with us. If your dog has any bathroom habits that will help me with the stay please let me know. Thank you! I have a great schedule that will allow me to walk your dog during the day if we are boarding and I am available most weekends. If it is a drop in I can do that after 2 during the week and anytime during the weekends. I have summers off so I can do pick ups to take your baby to Folly if that is what will make your dog happy! I have a big fenced in yard and can have your baby sleep where they are comfortable. I have taught my children to be very careful when opening our front door. They make sure your dogs safety is the first priority.

“Alyssa was amazing!! I was very happy with her great communication and how well she took care of our senior german shepherd pup ! She was super caring and attentive to make sure our dog had the best possible care. I recommend her highly and can’t wait to continue to use her for our future stays.”
“Kimberly and Dylan did an excellent job taking care of our grand dame Australian Shepherd, who had limited mobility and poor eyesight. They were very accommodating, and not only took care of giving her the necessary meds, but also sent us regular updates. They were outstanding in all aspects, and we would recommend them highly to anyone needing a dogsitter in the Johns Island area.”
“Sassy had a wonderful time staying with John and Faith while we were out of town. They were so loving and attentive and spoiled her rotten the way we do! I love that! They sent lots of pictures while we were away to keep us updated on how she was doing. I highly recommend and I will definitely be using them again in the future.”
About: I have had dogs and cats since I was little allowing me to care for different pets at all ages. I have had Dachshunds and a Mini Australian Shepherd giving me the chance to learn how to best care for dogs of different temperaments. I love and am able to cater to pets of all ages and their needs!! I am attending MUSC for SLP school so I am only able to help pet parents Downtown unless able to drop off at my house. I am available around my class and work schedule during the week. I do not have an exact schedule yet but will try my best to be flexible! I will give your pets lots of attention and love. I know it’s hard for pets when they anre away from home so I will try to stick to their usual schedule as much as possible. I will treat them like they are my own pets!!
“Such a great experience! Surprised Scout was willing to come back home with me. Erin and her husband were great with communication and pictures. They have a big yard and their own really friendly goldens. Will definitely book again.”
About: As a lifelong dog lover and experienced foster dog mom, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members! I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities, including rescue dogs who need extra patience and reassurance while adjusting to new environments. Through fostering, I’ve gained experience with crate training, establishing routines, leash walking, enrichment activities, administering basic care, and helping dogs build confidence. I’m also a proud dog mom to Lola, my 10-year-old Maltese/Cocker Spaniel mix, who has taught me the importance of understanding each dog’s unique personality and needs. My experience as a pediatric physical therapist has strengthened my patience, attention to detail, communication skills, and ability to provide compassionate, individualized care. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing on the couch, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I also understand how reassuring it is to receive updates, so I’m happy to share pictures and messages throughout their stay! My goal is to treat every dog like family and give you peace of mind knowing they’re in caring hands. ❤️🐾 I currently work full time Monday through Thursday but I am available Thursday evenings through Sunday nights. I am available during holidays. Please contact me for special requests. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities! I provide a clean, comfortable, and loving home where pets can feel safe and relaxed. I have a fenced in yard. I always supervise outdoor time and make sure dogs are secure when entering or leaving the house. Safety is especially important during walks. I always use secure leashes and properly fitted collars or harnesses, stay aware of my surroundings, and avoid busy roads or potentially unsafe situations. I never allow dogs off-leash in unsecured areas and tailor walks to each dog’s age, energy level, and physical abilities.
“Shannon was incredible with our two dogs. This was our first time leaving our new puppy with someone and she quickly made her feel at home and comfortable. Shannon sent regular updates throughout the stay and took them on regular walks and did various activities with both of them. I am so happy we found Shannon and will definitely be using her for future stays!”
“Jeremiah was WONDERFUL!!! He was so kind and loving towards Tundra. He sent us lots of pictures and updates throughout the weekend. He loved Tundra like his own and took him on multiple trips to the beach as well as plenty of walks throughout the day. Tundra had the best time playing with his dogs, we thought he might not want to come home! Would absolutely recommend!”
“Caitlin is amazing!!! Our babies loved her and her family and we are so happy with the care they received. We will be booking with Caitlin’s again in the future for sure!”
“It was my first time leaving my puppy with a Rover sitter - and Chelsie was absolutely the right choice! She's extremely responsive and provides lots of pictures and updates during the holiday week. She took great care of my dog! Thank you, Chelsie!”
“Gracen and her husband did a fantastic job watching our dog for the weekend. He must have been very active all weekend because he slept for an entire day after we got home! Gracen was very responsive and extremely kind and helpful. We absolutely will be booking with them again!”
“Chloe was a wonderful sitter! She was able to watch my dog, Kona, on short notice after my original pet sitter canceled, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She sent plenty of updates, photos, and videos throughout Kona’s stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. She even took Kona and her own dog to the county park one morning! I would definitely recommend Chloe to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter :)”
“Took great care of my dog for 12 days. She sent me photos every day and showed how much fun my dog was having. Lowkey don’t think my dog wanted to come home. Would highly recommend!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a kid and have a six-year-old yellow lab named Piper who is a friend to all! I absolutely love dogs and enjoy everything from walking to playing fetch, tug, etc. the list goes on! I’m self-employed, so I have flexibility and am able to take walks, go to the park, let pets out, etc. It’s already my day to day, so adding one more is just extra fun! I take care of them as I would my own. They’re allowed on furniture, unless I’m told otherwise, and get to enjoy the same activities my own dog would (walking, fetch, playing with toys, bones, etc.).
About: I’ve had dogs since I was a child. I now have two of my own. My dogs are my family, and I make sure they are well cared for always! I will care for your dogs like my own. I am in between jobs, so I have lots of time to spend with your pet. I will make sure they always have lots of attention and love, providing them with plenty of walks and play time. Your dog will have access to lay on my couch and roam freely through the common areas. While I don't have a yard, we do lots of walking!
“Kelsey was absolutely fantastic! I felt so comfortable with her watching my pup. She sent lots of updates and was so patient with my energetic lab. She really took care of my pet and would recommend her to anyone!”
“Madelynne was great to work with. Super accommodating, willing to meet ahead of time, and able to watch our two dogs over the Labor Day weekend. She was great with updates and photos and provided a comfortable stay for our two girls. Also her dog Rye is a sweetheart and unbelievably adorable.”
