“Alyssa was phenomenal! My dog can be a bit energetic (understatement…) upon meeting new people, but Alyssa stayed super calm while my dog ran in circles around her house until she finally wore herself out. Alyssa was kind and gracious and sent lots of pictures and loved on my crazy pup like she was her own! I truly cannot recommend her enough!”
“Very glad to have found Jonathan and Carla to watch Evie for me! She started playing with their cute little pup when I dropped her off and I got updates with pictures of her while I was away! Evie definitely enjoyed her stay with them and was so happy while she was with them and when I picked her up! I would definitely recommend using them and will use them again!”
“Toad had a great time ! She got to run around in a lovely huge backyard and had constant attention, plus another Pug to play with. She even got to explore the neighborhood with walks. I can tell she misses her new Pug friend too. Abby even mixed some of her own food with Toads to get to her to eat there since she was a little nervous the first day. I was kept updated with pictures and communication the whole time. I can tell Toad had a wonderful time and would use Abigail again to watch Toad for a day or boarding without hesitation!”
“Sasha is the best of the best! She took such great care of my pup while I was on a trip. She sent me photos and updates, and was so attentive to him even though he was anxious. I highly recommend her and will definitely be asking her to watch Puck again!”
“Emily was great to talk to and she took amazing care of my dog Calyx for the weekend! Her dog Goose is such a sweetheart. I’d definitely recommend Emily for anyone needing dog boarding!”
“Caitlin was so wonderful! She took great care of Molly, was easy to communicate with and flexible! Had no problem doing my dog’s eye drops as well. Would highly recommend!”
“Bootsie & Tom took such great care of my pup while I was away for a long weekend. They sent updates and pictures enjoying her time in their home. I felt at ease while away knowing she is taken care of. Highly recommend and will most definitely be booking with them in the future!!”
“They were so amazing to our boys! Sending tons of pictures and giving updates throughout their stay! Our boys loved their yard and we will definitely use them in the future!”
“Nadra took excellent care of our dog even keeping her calm during 4th of July fireworks. Our dog loved the fenced yard and basking in the sun spots. Thank you, Nadra. Our dog didn't miss a beat and came home happy.”
“Bijayata was amazing! She kept me updated daily and sent adorable pictures multiple times throughout each day. Prue was clearly happy during her stay and had the best time. It eased my nerves knowing she was being well taken care of and was comfortable while I was away. I will definitely book Bijayata every time I’m out of town, no question.”
“Gabriela was amazing! Mav will definitely be going back to her. She kept me updated with photos and little messages, took Mav on so many walks and was so accommodating with travel disruptions! Always a good feeling when your dog comes home happy and healthy from the dog sitters! 🙂”
“Fantastic! When staying with Jeremiah my dog was living his best life! He cruised the town in a convertible, hit the sand at Sullivans, sunbathed on the back porch & snoozed on the sofa (using Jeremiah's feet for a pillow!). Communication was perfect & the photos were awesome.”
“I feel so lucky to have found Ruth! She is sweet, responsive, and caring. It felt like I left my dog with an old friend, not with a new sitter, I could not recommend her more!”

I'll always communicate clearly, send updates, and make sure everyone feels safe and comfortable.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Dorchester
Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
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.
About: My house is located in Park Circle in North Charleston and has a fenced in backyard great for playing. I enjoy taking Dez on walks and runs and would love to do the same with your fury friend. I also live by a few parks to take your dog out to play! I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I currently work from home part time and have a flexible schedule to accommodate a drop in service- refresh the water bowl, short walk for business or available for full 30 minute walk. Boarding available with notice required. I am known to adapt to the lifestyle my clients give their furry friends. Whether you want your dog taking on long walks or runs at the park playing fetch. At home I ensure pups get plenty of exercise and go out after breakfast and dinner.
“Alyssa watched my Goldendoodle, Roscoe yesterday. She was super communicative, sending me pictures and videos throughout the day. I could tell he was being very well cared for. He is scared of new people and other dogs, and she followed all of my directions on helping him through his big feelings. Thank you so much, Alyssa! I will definitely be using you again!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have always had a deep love for all animals. I currently have a 5 year old Great Dane/Lab mix named Maxwell who keeps me active, attentive and well-versed in daily dog care and companionship. Needless to say, I am comfortable with large breeds! I am a kind, caring and reliable person who truly enjoys spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, happy and loved! I treat every pet as if they were my own and understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy looking after your fur baby! I work remotely, which allows me a flexible schedule and the ability to step away throughout the day as needed. This makes it easy for me to provide consistent attention, walks, playtime and check-ins without rushing. I prioritize making pets feel safe, comfortable and loved. I am very attentive, loving, reliable and I treat every pet as if it were my own.
“Thank you, Josh! Our pup was well taken care of, and Josh did an excellent job sending updates and pictures throughout the day. We really appreciated the great care and communication! 😊”
About: Kind, caring, gentle. High energy and I like nothing more than going for a good long walk. I enjoy getting to the beach. love being around dogs. I love to play and very open to cuddles. Just recently retired (young) so I have a lot of new found time on my hands. Flexible schedule for the most part. Weekends are also ok for my schedule. Have permits for Sullivan's ansld go there almost daily. I am very outdoorsy. I enjoy going for long walks but equally as happy staying in. I have a fenced in yard. I am firm but playful. In control and physically able to handle big dogs. I respect owners wishes and follow instructions to the letter
“Natasha was great! She was quick to communicate, open and easy to work with. She was very responsible and help put an anxious pet parent at ease!! We received updates throughout the day. Highly recommend!”
About: I've been a dog lover my entire life and currently share my home with two dogs of my own so I know what it takes to make pups happy, comfortable, and keep them entertained. Norman, our resident over the top friendly Golden Retriever and his little big sister sidekick Hallie, our corgi/rat terrier mix can't wait to host a new friend! I have a flexible schedule, which means your dog will get plenty of attention, walks, and playtime throughout the day-not just squeezed in around a 9-to-5. Whether your dog is high energy or more of a couch companion, they'll be treated like part of our pack while you're away. I'm currently working part-time, (2-3 days a week 5-9am). My schedule is otherwise wide open- which means lots of walks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day and evening. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priority. I have a fenced yard where dogs can play and relax without worry. My home is a smoke-free, pet-friendly environment, and I keep a close eye on all dogs in my care, especially during the first few days as they settle in. My own two dogs are friendly and well-socialized, so your pup will have good company too. I’m always reachable and happy to send photo or video updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away.”
About: I'm Hill. I'm a writer, which means I work from home — so your dog is never alone. No crate schedules, no long empty afternoons. They're with me on the couch while I work, out for walks when they need them, and generally living the life they have at your place, minus you. I've been caring for dogs on and off for twenty years — the last four, professionally, in my home. Most of my business is regulars — dogs who've stayed with me a dozen times and drag their owners to my door. Two or three guests at a time, so your dog gets actual attention rather than a spot in a pack. I’m happy to send photos and updates while you're away. Ask my regulars' dogs for references; they're biased but enthusiastic. I'm a writer who currently works from home, so I have plenty of time to care for your cat, dog, turtle, rabbit, etc. I’m available morning through night. I will send texts, including pictures, daily. Please ask if I am boarding other dogs, as I have clients outside of Rover. Overall, I provide most services. From walking and boarding to pet and house sitting. Please feel free to ask me any questions. I’ll be happy to answer ASAP.
About: I love all animals! I have two senior dogs and a cat of my own at home. I've lived with a dog my whole life. I have been described as a dog whisperer by many friends for my knack of gaining a dog's trust very quickly. My first cat came in 2016 and I soon after became a cat lover. I typically have late afternoon to evening availability during the week and am completely free during the weekends for pet care. I occasionally have early afternoon availability during the week as well. I am available for overnight sitting and boarding. If your home is outside of my direct service area I do adjust my rates to account for additional time and travel. I am completely comfortable accommodating any\all pet care requests within reason. Whether that be letting your pet out in the yard for exercise/bathroom breaks, letting dogs/cats in and out of crates/bedrooms to eat or roam around for awhile. I'm also happy to just keep your pet company for the time I am with it, from petting to playing fetch or tug-of-war or just peacefully co-existing.
“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 started my own neighborhood dog walking job at the age of 14 up until I graduated college. I took care and became very close with over 9 different neighborhood families pets. Most of the clients were ones who left for family vacations so I took care of them for long periods of times. I currently have six dogs: — Mali, Husky Mix, FS, 11 yrs — Rhone, St. Bernard, FS, 11 yrs, DEAF — Tanner, Red Golden, MN, 7 yrs — Teddy, White Golden, MN, 7 yrs — Tucker, Yellow Golden, MN, 7 yrs — Topper, Golden Corgi Mix, MN, 6 yrs — Ramen, Golden Bernese Mix, MN, 9 yrs — Kenny, Spaniel Mix, MN, 2 yrs — Henry, Chow Shepherd X, MN, 2yrs, BLIND — Tammy, DSH, FS, 2yrs I ran a local dog rescue (Eunoia Rescue) for 5 years and recently resigned to focus on my career. I have fostered over 60+ dogs in my home, ranging from one week old puppies to seniors with disability. In addition to running a rescue, I have also worked for a Dog Day Care for 3 years and a Veterinarian Clinic for 2 years, so I have a large amount of experience with animal care. I now work from home, besides having sporadic appointments with clients, so I have a pretty open availability. I am responsible, super outgoing, very clean, young professional who absolutely love dogs & animals and enjoy making them happy! Since I work from home when I don’t have an appointment, and have a very flexible schedule, I’m able to work with a customers schedule pretty well, too! I have a large acre fenced in yard, with a smaller fenced in yard within the larger yard. This yard is a turf yard, allowing the dogs to stay clean and they have a double fence, keeping them extra safe. They are all very obedient and thrive off of structure and routine. They are let out 5-6 times a day and get one 2 mile walk a day and fed twice a day. Their bowls are cleaned daily & their water is refreshed multiple times a day. Their linens (dog beds, blankets, plush toys) get washed weekly.
About: I’ve owned multiple disabled dogs and can care for them. I’m also experienced in giving medicine to animals that may need it. grew up around a lot of different animals and I love spending time with new animals and seeing all the different dog and cat breeds. 😁 I stay at home and my schedule is very flexible, so the fur babies will get plenty of attention and love! They will always have me with them for some company and play time. I can take care of pets in any way that their pet owner would like. I don’t have many rules and would just like for the fur babies to be comfortable in the new environment!
“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”

About: I have experience caring for a range of dog breeds and love to take dogs out for a walk or play in the yard. I don’t currently have my own pets but grew up with dogs and cats. I love caring for cats as well, and definitely understand they can be friendly or sometimes skiddish. I have worked at a vet clinic, so have experience with a range of annimals and how to care specifically for each. Older dogs are no problem, and I have some experience administering medication to both cats and dogs. I also have experience with puppies and able to work on most training. For both older and younger dogs, I understand accidents can happen and have no problem cleaning. I do have a full time job, but would be more than happy to come by as much as I am able to care for your pet! I will make sure all pets are well cared for and loved, and hopefully they will be happy to see me come back!
“Connor was fantastic with my Husky and he tried really hard with my reactive Chihuahua. He followed all my instructions and requests. He was calm and easy to work with. I will be hiring him again.”
About: I would foster and adopt all the fur babies if I could! I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs and cats of different ages since childhood. Friends, families, neighbors, and acquaintances have trusted me to care for their pets as if they were my own. I rescued my own cat from a shelter and moved across the country with her, then later was a foster fail for a 3 week old rescue puppy, he’s now a 60lb lab-Pitt mix and he and my cat are the best of friends I am currently working Friday-Monday downtown Charleston and have a flexible schedule Tuesday-Thursday and I have flexibility earlier on Monday mornings as well. I have 2 friendly dogs and cat (who thinks she is a dog) who get along very well with other dogs, a large fenced-in dog park in the neighborhood I live in
About: We’re a husband-and-wife team, both Marine Corps veterans and animal lovers. We have four cats of our own, so we know how much it means to have someone dependable caring for your pets. We both enjoy being outside and getting exercise, and we’d love to give your dog a fun, attentive walk. We’re currently working part-time while using our GI Bill benefits for school, which gives us flexibility for walks and pet visits. We’ll take time to learn your pet’s routine, follow your instructions closely, and send updates so you know how they’re doing. My husband and I both work part-time while attending school, which gives us flexibility to fit pet care into our weekly routines. We can coordinate our schedules to make time for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and litter box care. We’ll confirm availability with you before booking so your pet gets the care they need at the right time. We care for pets in their own homes, where they can stay comfortable with their familiar routines. Since we have four cats, we don’t offer care in our home. We’re happy to drive to your home, or walk over if you’re in the Park Circle neighborhood. During visits, we’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, and any other care your pet needs. We love being active and spending time outdoors, and we’re happy to walk, jog, or run with your dog if that’s what you prefer and what’s appropriate for them. For cats and other pets, we’ll follow their lead, whether they’re ready to play or would rather have quiet company.
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.
About: I grew up with dogs and cats my whole life and love both dearly. Since i was 9 I’ve been taking care of my neighbors, friends, and families pets. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all sizes and ages, senior dogs have a particularly special place in my heart. I’m 24, incredibly responsible, and have so much excitement and care to share with your furry family member. I’m currently working part time preparing for a yoga teacher certification retreat in costa rica so I have plenty of free time on my hands to check in on your pets and keep them company. I know some pets are slow to take a liking to new people but I have loads of patience and positive enforcement to share with them. I follow exact feeding and visit times to keep your pet on their schedule and cause as little disruption to their daily routine as possible.

“Braylee was great! She was able to accommodate a last minute walking request, she was communicative and followed instructions and I came home to healthy happy pup. I would definitely book again!”
“Morgan takes such great care of Bella. I’ve had various terrible experiences with Rover but I never have to worry when she is the one taking care of her. She has renewed my trust in someone taking care of my dog. Thank you Morgan for being so great!!”
About: I have always had a special connection with dogs of all sorts. I am a super friendly person and animals make me happy. I will treat your dog as my own and make sure when he or she is in my care has the best experience possible. I am currently in Real Estate and looking for a side gig and this seems absolutely perfect. I live downtown with a huge backyard and have extensive knowledge about the area. I grew up with a cocker spaniel and fell in love immediately (although I definitely do not discriminate) I am planning on getting a dog soon, just haven't had the opportunity quite yet but I look forward to meeting your pup! Hopefully I will see you soon!
About: I have been looking after other’s pets since I began watching my neighbors’ dogs at eight years old. I take seriously the responsibility of watching another’s furry best friend, and find joy in meeting and caring for animals of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments. I work a 9 to 5 job with regular hours and am happy to help your pup with an early morning, mid day, or evening walk! I approach all pets with respect and follow the cues they give me about how much love and attention they want to give and receive. I try to make them as comfortable as possible while they are missing their human, and create a space where they can relax and have fun while they wait.
About: I’m a dedicated dog mom to an Aussiedoodle and prioritize my dog’s health, exercise, and training every day. We stay active together getting 10-12k steps a day, keep up with daily routines like dental care, and focus on healthy treats and positive habits. I’ve taken training classes and enjoy learning modern, science based training methods to better understand animal behavior. I’ve raised my dog since he was 8 weeks old, so I’m very familiar with puppy development, training consistency, and maintaining a structured routine. Growing up, I also cared for a variety of animals of all ages, which helped me appreciate the unique personality every pet has. I believe no animal is “bad” each one simply has their own quirks and communication style. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, understood, and comfortable while their owner is away. I integrate pet care into my daily routine several times throughout the day by walking, running, and training my dog. I also brush his teeth, prepare fresh meals and healthy treats, and conduct regular training sessions both alone and with people. I maintain a consistent schedule so pets in my care can expect structured exercise, attention, and enrichment throughout the day. I always follow each pet’s boundaries and the owner’s rules to ensure they feel safe and comfortable. I check in with the owner to see if there’s anything extra they’d like me to provide and make sure their instructions are fully implemented. I also give a “report card” after each visit, updating the owner on their pet’s behavior, activity, and overall wellbeing, so they know their furry friend is happy, safe, and cared for.
“Emily did a great job walking our pups (each who has a different goal from the other) for this first week! She was polite and thoughtful, and the dogs had a great time. Looking forward to asking her to continue to return!”
About: Hi! My name is Camryn and I’m 23. I have grown up with dogs my whole life and have experience with all kinds of dogs, big and small!

I’m currently available for dog walks and morning, midday, and/or night check-ins. I’m currently an online student and studying for the CPA Exam, so my days are incredibly flexible! I am available to work around your schedule, so just let me know what your pet needs! I have experience with feeding, walking, administering medication and more! I am great with following routines so whatever is typical for your walks or their feeding schedule is something I can accommodate.
“Jenna is so sweet and trustworthy! She was very accomadating to my wishes and she really wanted to make sure she was giving the best care to my German Shepherd. I was gone for a weekend and Jenna would stop by to walk her and my dog gets very lonely and will not eat when she’s home alone. Jenna took the time to sit with her after their walk her so that she would eat.”
About: I have taken care of pets of all kinds since I was little, and would love to meet yours! I have a miniature dachshund named Wally who is 14-lbs of Napoleon complex, so I'm used to being patient, calm, and caring at home as well :) I am taking some time off work & have very flexible availability for house visits and walks 7 days a week. I am also generally available for house-sitting 7 days a week. I’m happy to work with your pet’s usual routine and am always open to whatever works best for them. I believe good communication is key, so I really appreciate detailed instructions and will always keep you updated while you’re away. I take both the physical and emotional well-being of pets seriously and want them to feel happy, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Every pet is different, and I’m happy to follow their individual routines, preferences, and needs from feeding schedules and medication to playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply giving them some space. The more you can tell me about your pet, the better I can make their time with me feel comfortable and familiar. I’ll always treat your instructions and your pet’s needs with care and attention.

“Alyssa was phenomenal! My dog can be a bit energetic (understatement…) upon meeting new people, but Alyssa stayed super calm while my dog ran in circles around her house until she finally wore herself out. Alyssa was kind and gracious and sent lots of pictures and loved on my crazy pup like she was her own! I truly cannot recommend her enough!”

“They were so amazing to our boys! Sending tons of pictures and giving updates throughout their stay! Our boys loved their yard and we will definitely use them in the future!”
“Fantastic! When staying with Jeremiah my dog was living his best life! He cruised the town in a convertible, hit the sand at Sullivans, sunbathed on the back porch & snoozed on the sofa (using Jeremiah's feet for a pillow!). Communication was perfect & the photos were awesome.”
“I feel so lucky to have found Ruth! She is sweet, responsive, and caring. It felt like I left my dog with an old friend, not with a new sitter, I could not recommend her more!”

“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. Sydney was relaxed, happy, and so well looked after the whole time, and it gave us complete peace of mind. We'll definitely book her again. Thank you, Jennifer”
“Carla and her family were incredible hosts for our dog Arnold! She was very communicative, kind, and they have a lovely home with plenty of yard space for him to run around. We hadn’t left our dog with a sitter in quite a while, so I was nervous about leaving him, but Carla and her family left me feeling confident and excited about Arnold’s time there, and we were able to enjoy our trip without worrying about him! I don’t think Arnold wanted to leave! We will definitely rebook with Carla the next time we need a sitter.”
“Fallon and RJ are heaven sent! My dog was well taken care of tired out when picked up which is always a plus! Their dog Skye and Phoenix gets along fantastically, I was given updates and pictures and I never had to worry about out him while he is with them or continue with my helicopter parenting they simply are the best!”
“Natasha was a good communicator and sent pictures of our girl while we were away! She took our golden on walks and played with her. She also was a huge help to us by picking up and dropping off our golden when we had early/late flight times. She was a huge help and we felt great about leaving our Honey girl with Natasha!”
“Michelle is great with our dog! This is our second time with Michelle. I appreciate her updates and efforts to make our pup feel like one of her own. I have no plans on letting our dog stay with anyone else!”
“Rachel was wonderful! Took great care of Trooper, he seemed to love her and her dog Sadie who is an absolute angel. She sent picture updates every day and made me feel very comfortable. Will definitely be booking again!”
About: Hi! Animals have pretty much always been the center of my life. I grew up with dogs, cats, and horses, have been pet sitting since I was 12, earned my degree in Animal Science from Virginia Tech, and spent two years working professionally with horses after college. I currently work in veterinary client care and have plenty of experience with everything from daily care and medications to the occasional pet who has very specific opinions about how things should be done. I have my own Australian Shepard, Ripley, so I’m no stranger to zoomies, long walks, and pup cups! I’m comfortable with pets of all different personalities and needs, and I’m happy to stick as closely as possible to whatever routine makes your pet happiest. I also know how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your pet with someone else, so pictures and updates are always part of the deal! My work schedule varies throughout the week, which gives me flexibility for pet care on both weekdays and weekends. I keep my availability updated and am happy to work with you to find care that fits your pet’s normal routine. When I’m home, I spend lots of time walking, playing, and going on adventures with my own dog. I have a friendly dog of my own who loves having company! I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, crate time, and any other preferences you have. For pets staying with me, I’ll always make sure everyone is comfortable together and has their own space when needed. In your home, I’ll treat your pet, their routine, and your space with the same care and respect I’d want for my own.
