“Let me just say my expectations were exceeded! Nontombe was so great. This was my first time boarding my pup with someone other than family, so I was nervous about it, but she welcomed Creed with open arms! Here attentiveness and updates were much appreciated. We’ll definitely be seeing her soon. Thank you again!”

“Michelle was very pleasant and patient with my dog, who is not accustomed to people outside of our family. When we arrived, she made sure she understood all of our preferences regarding eating, sleeping, and socializing. Throughout our time away, she sent pictures and text updates on how my dog was adjusting. When we picked Max up, he was clean, calm, and doing great overall. A great experience!”

“Whitney's family are amazing! My little girl had an amazing time. It was also fun to see Whitney's little helper enjoy her stay. A very sweet and kind family! I appreciated the updates and the warm comforting feeling knowing that my little girl felt welcomed.”

“Isabela was amazing with our yorki. She sent regular updates with pictures and was quick to respond whenever I reached out!! We will definitely be using her again in the future! Thank you so much for treating our dog like it was your own :)”

“Aiko did a great job with Brock she was very patient and understanding with him even when he had an accident when he first arrived .I would definitely recommend Aiko and I hope to have her as a sitter again.”

“Michael and his wife were caring and loving with our two doggies. They take great pride in what they do and are genuine dog lovers. We will definitely reach out to them in the future to care for our girls.”

“We invited Kathy to meet Mikobefore we all made final decision and our Miko fell in love! Kathy was awesome regarding staying in touch with us with pictures and text messages while Miko was at her house! Miko loved being there and made friends and gained a buddy! Our hearts were are so grateful for Kathy and we were able to relax on our vacation knowing Miko was well cared for, safe and happy! We would highly recommend Kathy if you are looking for a sitter who will take great care of your pet, show them lots of love and attention and stay in touch! She is very sweet and we are blessed to have found her on “Rover”’”

“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!”

“Sally is absolutely the BEST! She takes such good care of our Henry and he absolutely LOVES her! He runs up her steps when we pull into her driveway. Having someone love and care for your furbaby the way Sally does, removes a lot of stress and worry. I can actually relax knowing he’s well cared for and happy.”

“Gina was awesome! Very accommodating, easy to work with and great at communicating. Our first time boarding overnight, and she made it so easy - when we picked him up it was clear he had a good time and was comfortable. Highly recommended!”

“Our dog had a blast at Evelyn’s. He got lots of exercise, which he loves, and he ate well (which is always a good sign that he was happy). We got daily updates and couldn’t be happier with his care at Evelyn’s. Thank you!!”

“I found Daisy through the Rover app. My dogs normal daycare was fully booked. My dog did not really like the previous doggie day care place. Daisy was a perfect. She sent several messages and pictures each day. My dog seemed happy there and I was happy with her service. Prior to giving him anything extra she would text me first. I loved the communication. I would strongly suggest Daisy to anyone looking for a dog sitter. This was an awesome experience 👏 🙌.”

“This is the 2nd time our pups stayed with Janece and Matthew and couldn't be more happy with how well they were taken care of while we were on vacation. We definitely recommend them. You're pup/pups are in great hands! Thank you again for watching them and all the photos and videos! ❤️”

“I needed to board my cat, Simba, and did not want to use my regular pet boarding facility. I usually board him there; however, this time I did not want him in a caged environment. I found Charmaine through Rover, and I am glad I did. I was a little apprehensive at first, but after speaking with her and seeing how attentive she was to Simba’s needs, I felt much more comfortable. Simba is blind and requires extra care, but Charmaine took excellent care of him. She allowed him to roam freely in her home, making him feel comfortable and at ease. Throughout his stay, Charmaine provided regular updates, including pictures and videos, which gave me peace of mind. She not only met Simba’s needs but went above and beyond to ensure he was happy and well cared for. If anyone is looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter, I highly recommend Charmaine. My experience with her was outstanding, and I would not hesitate to use her services again.”

About: I’ve grown up with cats and have raised my own 13-year old cat since she was 5 weeks old. I’ve been there for street cats that my family took in that immediately gave birth to kittens, to giving anxious elderly cats medicine. I can handle any kind of personality and any age cat 💜

“The care and attention Beth gives to our cat is unmatched and she always goes above and beyond to make him comfortable while we are away. She has cared for our cat many times and he is always happy to see her while we are gone. We always have peace of mind that he will be in good hands while we are gone when Beth cares for him.”

“Briana is clearly an experienced animal caregiver and all of our animals (pups and cats) took to her immediately!! We have many animals, including a physically disabled dog, and we can be pretty high-maintenance when it comes to all of them. It is so important to us to have the peace-of-mind of a caring, capable sitter when we have to be away from our fur kids. We are so happy to have found her!”

About: Hello! My name is Hannah and my Husband’s is Jacob! Together we will be watching and caring for your pets! I have been taking care of various animals basically the entirety of my life. Growing up we raised 13 German Shepherds! I graduated from a Christian high school and have graduated with a bachelors in Biology. In the past I worked at a doggy daycare watching and monitoring roughly 100 dogs a day. I have been certified in pet CPR and first aid. I also am certified in dog handling and working in a daycare environment. Now I work for a local mobile grooming company ! I have been petsitting for the past several years and am currently trying to start up and operate my own business. Animals are my passion and my family ❤️ With me I can assure you’ll have pictures and updates! During go home times either I or Jacob will be there to see you off! Sometimes as life is hectic he takes over the go homes so you can be reunited with your best friend as quickly as possible and so it’s more convenient on you! If you’re uncomfortable with this arrangement please let me know and we may have to work out a later arrangement! I currently work part time three days a week! I am most available on the Friday and Saturday ! On Sundays I have a hectic schedule. Most of my time I spend outdoors playing with the dogs or doing yard work so their is plenty of romping and play for your dogs! I have a completely fenced in yard with 4 friendly pups to keep your dogs company. Don’t fret while all the dogs are out together they will be under supervision to make sure that no disagreements happen! Safety comes first then of course cuddles and play! We do have various farm animals as we are making our own little homestead to be more self sufficient. All dogs are heavily monitored to protect the safety of all animals and hasn’t been a issue but just so we can make you aware before dropping off.
About: Love living in the area, I have always enjoyed spending time outside in all seasons. On any kind of day, I would love to give your family member a walk/run in the neighborhood or at a nearby park/path or whichever they prefer to get some fresh year and exploration through the smells/sights. For the playful pup, I love to run around and play with them until the sun goes down. I have experienced many years with easy and difficult dogs as being a pet owner myself, finding love and care for all creatures all life from dogs all the way to my 3-year-old goldfish. I can not wait to meet your furry family member and give them all the pets and love they fully deserve!
About: I’ve grown up with every kind of animal; dog, cat, bird, snake…you name it I probably had it. I currently own my ESA Molly, a 3yo cat who was a pregnant foster fail (her 4 babies went to amazing homes). I have experience fostering and owning pregnant dogs and cats. I have midwifed puppies at the age of 15 alone. I then got to train those 6 puppies which was an amazing experience. I love getting to spend time with animals and I have the time to help owners who maybe can’t be with their fur babies all day. I am a full time graduate student, however weekends i have all day availability, and during the week I am available in the mornings and evenings. I don’t work so other than classes I have a lot of free time. In my own home, Molly is cared for solely by me. This would be the same for your pet. I have two female roommates (also animal lovers) who have their own space in our apartment. Molly is allowed free roam including the balcony, however only with MY supervision on the balcony. With foster dogs we’ve had, they were also allowed on the balcony, as we are on the second floor with a 4.5ft railing. Our complex has a completely fenced in large grass area for dogs in between the buildings where we take our fosters out to play. In your home, it is up to you how I care for your animals. I’m willing to do sidewalk walks as well as go to dog parks. I have no issue visiting your pet at your home to take them just to the backyard or on a 2 mile walk.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Crane Forest
“Our Yorkie, Dottie, seemed to enjoy her time with Sebastian and his family. She must have played a lot because she was tired but sad to leave. I would certainly use Sebastian again in the future and recommend him to anyone.”

“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.”

About: Hello. I have extensive experience with a variety of animals. As a child I rescued stray cats, dogs, and different wildlife. I've had cats, dogs, turtles, rabbits, domesticated rats...literally everything. I currently have 4 rescued ducks, 2 rescued turtles, and 4 baby tortoises (inside). I have a fenced in yard and numerous references. I do have 4 small kids. I work from home. If a pet is skittish around children, I keep them in my room so there is calmness. ***PLEASE send a collar and leash (leash for dogs) I work from home so your pup would have constant attention as they'd be hanging out with me. I do have a fenced in backyard (it has my outdoor animals it in). If the pup isnt good around farm animal, potty breaks can be on a leash in my front yard I have a fenced in backyard. I am okay with a dog that sleeps in a cage overnight...or not. There's definitely flexibility there if the dog isnt destructive. I will ensure the pup is comfortable and entertained.
“Nontombe was wonderful with our little guy! We had never left him before and she made sure he felt comfortable and safe. It was extra special to get pictures and videos of him so we knew he was being super well cared for. Would absolutely recommend her for your pet sitting needs ☺️”

“Alina's first time at Gary's was very welcoming. I felt at ease when I left her, knowing she was in good hands. I could tell Alina liked being there by the way she acted. We will definitely book again!”

“Omgosh! Michelle was our hero the weekend of my nephews wedding! Newly relocated to the Charleston area, we knew no one to watch our pup while we went to Savannah for the wedding. We found Michelle in Savannah, and she was wonderful!! So sweet and loving to our 10year old poodle bichon, and he seemed to be comfortable with her and her place right away. If you're looking for the perfect dog sitter, look no further, Michelle is your gal.”

“I am very impressed with Daniel! He and Bentley got along beautifully and Max proved to be a good doggie friend. Daniel has a very calm demeanor and sweet disposition- Bentley became attached immediately since he is rather calm. Daniel took exceptional care and responded quickly to my silly check-ins during the day. I highly recommend Daniel!”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 12. Now, I am a dog mom of 3 beauties. I have a 16 yr old shitzu terrier mixed,3 yr old a pit bull , and a 6 months English bull dog!

Can’t wait to meet your fur babies! ****I am also able to assist with any oral medications your pet may have. I have a very flexible schedule to where I work from home. My schedule is pretty open throughout the week. If I’m not working Rover, I’m home being a dog mom! In my clients home I will follow instructions as given. I own a crate if needed, I prefer not to crate if in my care. I’m always loving on my fur babies🥰
About: My 1st Drop-In visit is free for multiple visits, just ask! While taking care of multiple pets in my household growing up and dogsitting for friends and family, I know the amount of care and love a dog needs to sustain a healthy and happy life. I like to stay physically active so walking, playing in the yard, or going to the park isn't a problem. I'm currently working part-time, so I do have time to spare for your pets! I am available mainly on the weekends, but during the week I am usually free for pet care/drop off/pick up. I have a fenced yard and a walking trail in my neighborhood for anytime the pups need to go out. I can keep your dog crated or let them roam free around the majority of the house if I am not home. I am available to feed and water your pets in the morning, afternoon, and evening if need be.
“Our two pups were SO happy and content to have spent the day with Savannah while I was out of town, I could tell they were well cared for and wouldn't hesitate to let them stay with her again!”
“Qais was very flexible with my changing schedule. He did a great job watching my dog Marge and gave regular updates throught the day. I would definitely let him watch her in the future.”

“Gina was great with our senior dog while we attended a basketball game at USC. She was very responsive and even met us after the game so we could start our drive home sooner. She was responsive and took great care of our baby. Would definitely use again for dog sitting needs. Thanks Gina!”

“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.”

“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 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Nicole and Telly are AMAZING!!!! They have helped me and my dogs through an incredibly stressful transition moving across country. They treat my dogs like part of the family! My girls look forward to spending their day with them and their dog Apollo. The dogs wrestle together, bask in the sunshine, roll in the yard and go on long walks. When I pick them up they are POOPED and sleep the whole 20 min back to the Airbnb that we are currently staying in. This is so helpful for one of my dogs who has massive anxiety issues, because she’s too tired to stress about all of the changes we’re going through. Nicole, Telly and their kids truly love animals and are fabulous caregivers! I feel so fortunate to have found them!🙏🏻”

About: DROP OFF/PICK UP PROCEDURE: I ask that all pet parents call or text upon arrival, I'll come out to greet you and your pet.

“Hannah was very prompt with walking my boys and very informative with her responses. My boys enjoyed her and we are all extremely thankful she was able to be there to help out!”

“The best dog sitter I have ever had! My dog immediately loved her. She even got my dog to walk when she was scared by loud fireworks. I highly recommend Lakotah and hope to book her again in the future.”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong commitment to animals through caring for strays, fostering, and rescuing those in need. I have hands-on experience with pets of all kinds and treat each one with the same love and attention as my own. My passion for animals guides everything I do, creating a safe and caring environment they can feel comfortable in. Pet care is a meaningful part of my daily routine, starting with feeding and checking on local strays each morning and evening to ensure they’re safe and healthy. I make time every day to provide food, water, and any needed care, like basic grooming or medical attention. I also stay connected with my pets back home through regular check-ins with family and help coordinate their care, making sure they’re well-fed, loved, and looked after even when I’m away. Dogs: Ensure dogs have regular access to food, clean water, and daily exercise suited to their breed and energy level. Provide consistent routines, positive reinforcement, and mental stimulation through play and training. Monitor their health and behavior, and keep their living area safe and clean. Cats: Maintain a clean litter box, fresh water, and appropriate food tailored to their dietary needs. Offer enrichment with toys, scratching posts, and quiet spaces for rest. Pay attention to their behavior and grooming habits to detect any health concerns early.
“Shanavia made me feel so safe and comfortable. My dog is a little crazy but she was so patient and took the time to understand my dog and train her. She has become my go to walker!”

“Samira has been a jewel! She is reliable and just an awesome person. Bentley loves her and we will miss her dearly! Thank you Samira for being consistently there for Bentley! You rock!!!”

“Sasha is a great Rover walker and I highly recommend her services to anyone! My dog Hazel is very shy with everyone she meets, but she immediately took a liking to Sasha and now every time she comes by to take Hazel on a walk, Hazel looks ecstatic in every picture that Sasha sends me from the walks. It makes me happy to know that my dog is in good hands while I'm away during the day, so I highly recommend booking her for any of your pet needs.”

About: Ever since I was little, I have always had an animal companion at my side. I have experience with both senior pets with medical needs as well as puppies and kittens less than a year old.

As a student, I have a fairly open and flexible schedule. My busiest days are Tuesdays and Thursdays, but even then, I have breaks throughout the day that allow me to stop by and care for your pets. On all other weekdays my availability is wide open, and I’m always available on weekends. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and make sure they get consistent, reliable care. I care for your pet the way that I would care for my own! You can expect me to play with them, take them on walks, feed them, and provide any sort of medical attention they need.

“Let me just say my expectations were exceeded! Nontombe was so great.

“This is the 2nd time our pups stayed with Janece and Matthew and couldn't be more happy with how well they were taken care of while we were on vacation. We definitely recommend them. You're pup/pups are in great hands! Thank you again for watching them and all the photos and videos! ❤️”


“Merrell was a fantastic and very attentive dog sitter. We got regular updates and photos of our boy playing with her dog and running around! He came home and went straight to sleep. I know he got plenty of activity and I never worried once while he was gone. I highly recommend Merrell for your dog sitting needs.”


About: Hi! I am Tony and I’m here to help you care for your family. I love animals and they love me. I am very familiar with the breeds American Bulldogs (my late pooch named Isabelle), Pitbulls (Josh), German Shepherds (Shotzi and Schnitzel). Please know your pets will be in good hands with me. I have also fostered 20+ dogs while volunteering for two no-kill rescues in Minneapolis. I worked for several years a holistic pet food and supply shop in Minneapolis, to boot. My home in Earlewood is the permanent residence of me and my two domestic shorthair tabbies, Derrick and Daryl. They’re great with other pets, especially dogs. Your dogs will enjoy a wooded double lot in a super pet friendly neighborhood. I love dog walks and ours is a super pet friendly neighborhood! Kenneled when I’m not home or not, your pet is welcome here! I work full time but only regular hours. I’ll be home with your pet anytime except 8-5 M-F.

I also love dog walks and our neighborhood is well suited for them. I’d your pup prefers walks to romping in the yard, just let me know. Of course, they’ll also have access to my pet friendly interior. My
“Lexie is the best!! She is our go-to sitter in Columbia. She’s very attentive to both of our dogs and goes out of her way to ensure they get safe socialization with the other dogs. She even gave them a special treat for Thanksgiving. I can tell that they enjoy staying with her and the other dogs based on their excitement when we pick them up. Thank you for everything, Lexie!!”

“Therio and family were great with my girl! They took her on walks updated pics with me and spoiled her! Even Apollo enjoyed her company. Thanks for keeping Olivia last minute.”

I can tell Rigatoni had a good time with Bo and was in great hands in their household . Thank you for everything!!?”

About: I’ve been around dogs since I was little. I’ve taken care of, feed played with and walked family and friends dogs and always made sure they were safe I’m currently not working so I have time to play and walk with your pups. I am able to board any day of the week at anytime! I do not have a fenced in yard but can assure you that your pups will be safe at all times. I have an older dog (8 yrs) who is the absolute best with other puppies!
