“You know your dog is happy with your sitter when you go the next time and he pulls on his leash to get into her house! We are so happy with Shawna’s care of Rufus while we were away.

Heather is great at her job, we are thankful we booked with her for the first time, and we will do it again!!! We recommend her 100% 👍 The Barnes family”
“Chino was well taken care of while I was away. Chino is shy and when I picked her up she did not seem shy at all with them, especially with Shannon's lovely daughter. I would recommend her and she also has a privacy fence surrounding her backyard, which put me at ease also.I would definitely ask for her services 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.”

Basil is skittish and timid however enjoys other dogs hence I selected Christina because she has her own personal dog. Christina has a fabulous backyard for the dogs to run and play. Christina was very attentive, sent plenty of pictures, texts and updates. Basil had a great time. I will definitely use her again.”
“Connie P. and her husband Ron is the best you can find for your baby doggie staycation. Our furry baby didn’t only make some furry friends, but also enjoyed his stay at Connie’s Pups Haven.

“Very very appreciative of Kathryn. She was so helpful and ensured that all of our pets’ needs were met, going above and beyond to make sure that everything went well. I’ve had a few less than pleasant experiences on here, so coming home to happy pets and no mess was a relief. I absolutely recommend booking with her.”
About: I've taken care of both of the cats I've had with all my heart even when my cat decided to be an indoor/outdoor cat. I always make sure the litter is clean not only for cleanliness but for comfortability of the cat as well. I know to keep my distance from cats because I know they don't want to be pet ALL the time (even though they're so cute and I want to) so they can feel comfortable around me
About: I love all dogs, big and small. I currently have my foster fail Enzo from the Greenville Humane Society so your little (or big) ones will have a friend to play with. I have a soft spot for pitties and chihuahuas. I used to share my world with two wonderful pitties (cannot wait to see them at Rainbow Bridge). I would walk them at least four miles every day or go hiking on weekends. Enzo is now two so we chase balls and play with toys on our land and will go hiking when we can. We like to paddle board and climb mountains! I have been the designated furbaby sitter for all family pets. I love caring for animals and would love to interact with your little or big ones. It’s a doggie world and I’m living in it and loving every moment. I am currently a Greenville Tech nursing student. I am free on weekends and like to do outdoor activities if the weather is cool enough. Pet sitting is a part-time job I love. In my clients home, I will make sure all rules are followed. I will walk their baby on a leash and try to avoid over stimulating scenarios. I will provide their baby enough exercise so they are nice and tired.
“Emma was amazing! Our pup could not have been in better hands. She went above and beyond in every way. Absolutely awesome job. We are definitely recommending and definitely using Emma again if we need a dog sitter.”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was 5 years old. I helped train my German Shepard. I’ve dog sat and walked dogs for neighbors for many years. I love animals all around! I have pretty open availability! I can be at your house whenever you need me to be. I can mostly work my schedule around you. I make sure that every animal gets the love they all deserve. I feed my pets every day and maintain their waters. I also take them on walks every day and am experienced with walking them. I don’t discipline my dogs, only reward them.
About: I’ve been caring for cats basically my entire life; about 18 years of hands-on experience from kittens to grumpy seniors, shy cats to super needy cuddle bugs. I’m super attentive to each cat’s personality and routine, so I adjust care to what they need instead of a one-size-fits-all approach. What sets me apart is that I’m really detail-oriented and don’t cut corners. I keep litter boxes very clean (like, scoop-as-soon-as-needed clean), make sure water is always fresh, and I pay attention to small behavior changes that might signal something’s off. I’m also comfortable giving medications if needed—oral meds, topical treatments, etc.—and I’m patient with cats who are nervous or difficult about it. On top of all that I enjoy spending time with those fluffballs and making sure they feel safe and relaxed!
“Kaileigh was incredible! She sent me photos and updates multiple times a day. My cat was comfortable with her and she left the house in perfect condition. She even put everything in the laundry before she left. I will definitely be having her watch my Binx in the future.”
About: I have cared for over 30 some animals since i was a little kid, from dogs and cats to goats, chickens, ducks, fish, and even a pigeon. I’ve been intimately involved with training multiple dogs and have been the sole walker and caretaker to many of them. Currently home for college, I am free basically 24/7 and prepared to make caring for your pets my focus. If need be, I am prepared to help out on short notice. I make sure to be very active with pets and make sure they get all the walking and playing they need. I am receptive and observant of their wants and needs.
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.

That way you get to see them enjoying their time playing around that way you know what they’re up to in their day.
“Holly is a professional, kind, thorough, and compassionate pet sitter! I’m so thankful I found her to check in on my cats when I’m out of town for work. I loved the daily updates and pictures of my fur babies - that was an unexpected bonus! I have already requested her for multiple dates during the summer months and am looking forward to not worrying about how my pets are being cared for! Thank you Holly - you do an exceptional job!”
“Could not have asked for a sweeter, more caring sitter. With the recent loss of my soulmate, I struggled with leaving my dog in someone else's care. Ashley completely went above and beyond for us, and made sure our Peanut was loved during our leave. I would highly recommend Ashley and will definitely choose her for any future needs.”
“Talen had a great connection with my fur babies. One is timid and usually it takes a few days for a sitter to be able to touch her but she came around a little faster with Talen.”

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. 🐶✨

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.
“Hannah was great. We needed someone to watch our large, high energy puppy and found Hannah. We wanted our dog to have the chance to play with another dog if possible, so she arranged for our pup to meet her dog prior to the stay. Hannah and Conan (her dog) were both awesome. Hannah clearly has a lot of love for dogs and and her experience handling dogs was evident. She sent us updates and pics throughout the day of Charlie (our boy) playing the yard and with her dog, Conan. Hannah even walked Charlie to help get some of his energy out. We will be using Hannah again!”

“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.”
“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.”

I want to make sure they get proper socialization and exercise while they await your return, they won’t feel lonely as long as I can help it!
About: I’ve been around animals for most of my life and genuinely love caring for them.

I’m comfortable with feeding, refreshing water, walking, playtime, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I know every pet has their own routine and personality, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I also believe in keeping pet parents updated with photos and messages so they can have peace of mind while they’re away. Pet care is already a big part of my daily life because I care for my own three dogs and two rescued cats every day.

About: I’ve grown up with high energy Aussies since I was a kid. From the moment I moved to a pet friendly home and schedule I started on the Aussie pack I have now. I have trained two dogs from puppies and rescued two from unfortunate situations. Therefore, I understand and can assist in potty and leash training, socialization, or a good old fashioned game of fetch. I’ve always loved working with dogs and seeing the joy they get from just being with you. In college I often volunteered with animal shelters to assist in socializing dogs. While I was active duty military I relied on my dog sitter to ensure my pups were getting all of their energy out and getting all the love with my unpredictable schedule. Therefore, I know how important it is to have someone who you can trust with your pups. I will strive to treat your fur babies just like my own because they’re our family! I recently retired from active duty military and am taking some much needed down time with my 4 dogs. I am available Monday-Saturday and would love to fit your fur babies into the routine! I have a large fenced backyard, I believe in positive reinforcement, and have 4 excited friendly pups who would love to share their space and toys with any new friends that want to play!
“We feel so lucky to have found Cara! From the very first walk, it was clear that she genuinely cares about Kevin and treats him like one of her own. Kevin absolutely lights up when she arrives! Cara is reliable, communicative and always goes the extra mile - whether sending the sweetest photo updates, or taking the time to give him a little extra love and play. Knowing he’s in such caring hands brings us so much peace of mind. It’s such a comfort knowing Kevin is not just walked, but truly cared for. Cara’s kindness, energy, and attention to detail make all the difference. We can’t imagine a better person to trust with our Kevin! Thanks Cara 🩷”

About: Animals have been apart of my life since birth. I have had the pleasure of taking in and mending injured wildlife. I have experience with taking a care of senior dogs and cats. I love animals and enjoy spoiling them as much as I can! I own and operate a business and do that throughout the week, and would like to spend time helping and hanging out with animals when I am not doing that. I have a large yard that gives animals a chance to run and play while being away from main roads. I keep a close eye and there are several places close to bring pets to walk and explore the outdoors!

You will have photos and videos all the time if you prefer.

When I was gone she sent me at least one picture and an update. I felt very good about leaving Ghost there. We will definitely be a return customer.”
“You know your dog is happy with your sitter when you go the next time and he pulls on his leash to get into her house! We are so happy with Shawna’s care of Rufus while we were away.

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. 🐶✨
“My Basil Boi stayed with Christina for 3 days of boarding. She was very understanding and welcoming. Basil is skittish and timid however enjoys other dogs hence I selected Christina because she has her own personal dog. Christina has a fabulous backyard for the dogs to run and play. Christina was very attentive, sent plenty of pictures, texts and updates. Basil had a great time. I will definitely use her again.”
“Leslie is the BEST! We loved her kind, gentle attitude and the love and individual attention she gave Floyd. She welcomed him into her home and treated him like her own. We (and especially Floyd) loved that she took him on hikes every day. We will definitely use Leslie again!”
