“Maddie was absolutely exceptional this past weekend. She provided details and sent pictures and videos and our kids especially appreciated that part. She was such a pleasure and will use her time and time again”
“I had such a great experience, it was clear how much they genuinely love and understand My pup instantly felt comfortable, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I received regular updates, photos, which made me smile and feel connected the entire time. When I returned, my dog was happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. I’m so grateful for the love and attention they gave, and I’ll definitely be booking with them again in the future!”
“Charles and his family provided wonderful care for my two dogs while I was away. Pictures were sent and messages were promptly answered; easing my worries of not being able to take them with me on my trip.”
“Family friendly home. Fenced yard and clean. My girls were taken great care of, and I was updated through my vacation. I would recommend Amy and will be booking again.”
“Sandi and her husband were GREAT with my pup! She kept me informed and sent pictures too. My pup went right up to her husband after she grabbed a toy and we watched as she gave her hugs when we picked her up. Velvet even seemed sad when we left. We knew she was missing her alternate mommy & daddy. We are very thankful for the time and love given to Velvet and definitely the patience they had with our baby. : )”
“I just can’t say enough great things about Janice. Her daily posts about Archie and knowing that she sees and understands his personality makes leaving him a little easier. You can see him smile when she posts photos of him. She genuinely cares for him and he loves it there. Highly recommend Janice.”
“The absolute best! From the moment we met her, I felt completely comfortable leaving Billie in her care. She is incredibly personable, caring, and attentive. Billie came home happy, exhausted from all the fun, and clearly showered with love and attention. She also had a great time playing with her adorable pup! We couldn’t be happier with the experience and can’t wait to book again. Highly recommend!”
“Jacklyn did above and beyond with taking care of my senior dog, Lotus. Very caring for Lotus' for conditions and took care of her with intent. Thank you Jacklyn for making Lotus feel at home and letting her sun bathe ?”
“Thank you Joyce & Bob for taking good care of Max for us. It was nice to know he was well taken care of while we were away and it gave me great peace. Even know Max is 10 years old, I still see him as my baby boy! Thank you again!”
“Lisa was amazing to work with! I planned to bring my dog with me last minute and she was able to accommodate Myles’ stay. He got plenty of love, walks and playtime and Lisa kept me updated along the way so I could fully enjoy my vacation. If back in the area I will certainly book with Lisa again. Myles’ was sad to leave her!”
“My Scout had a great stay with Carmen and found a new doggie friend in Tyr. She played and was very comfortable and happy. We will definitely be back next time I need a sitter. Carmen knows dogs and was very reliable and flexible.”
About: My wife and I are animal lovers and have had pets all of our life. Now we are retired and have all the time needed to care for your beloved dog/dogs. Being retired we have all the time needed to spend time and care for your furry friend. We are available for short or longer term care as well . We have a fenced in yard. Plus we have our 3 year old dog who loves company. He is a big and sweet boy who will make your dogs stay fun.
“Christina did it again! My Bella gets the best care when I’m out of town. I get frequent updates and pics. I don’t have to worry about whether or not she’s being taken care of. Thank you Christina, for taking such good care of my baby!”
“We booked our pups stay for 5 nights with Samantha at the last minute when our original plans fell through. She was prompt with all communications, particularly when we messaged to check in on Toby. She sent several pictures and updates over the course of the stay- cute little videos of him playing with their puppy. She shared her concerns with us when Toby didn't eat well the first couple days, but let us know when his appetite returned. :) The night we picked Toby up we had a flight delay, and they were so kind and accommodating with the change in our plans. Toby was happy to see us and very tired from all his playing. :) Thanks Samantha!”
“Britney was absolutely fantastic! I’m pretty sure my dog had a better vacation with her than I did😂 great communication and so accommodating. 10 out of 10 would recommend and will definitely be using her in the future (and telling family and friends)!”
“We had quite an eventful day when tried to head on our vacation. Needless to say we didn't get there when we wanted. However, Jenna stayed up until we were able to arrive and was very kind. Both my dogs immediately went up to her and you could tell that they were both going to be great. I've never left my dogs with someone that I wasn't close with so I was nervous. But Jenna sent videos of them playing and took some pictures so it easily calmed my nerves. We will definitely use her again if we ever go there. Oh! Jenna also has a really cool dog room in her house for the pups to sleep and it is awesome! We will be using Rover from now on. ”

“Craig took care of my 2 cats while we were on vacation. My cats are very shy of strangers. Craig fed them every morning then had to find them hiding either under the bed or bed covers. They were not interested in making friends with Craig, no fault in Craig’s efforts. Shy girls. I will use Craig again in the future and maybe over time they will he his friend.”
“Cheryl was a godsend. We have 2 unsocial rescue cats that are very timid. I was so worried about leaving them. Not only did she take really good care of my girls, but she actually was able to take pictures of them and she was able to pet one of them. (AMAZING) The daily pictures and updates made my day. Will definitely use Cheryl again.”
“I have had Rachel houses for my cats a few times, she always does a great job. She is very reliable and sends me pictures of my cats every day I am away and communicates promptly. She leaves my place in great shape. I highly recommend her for taking care of your pets.”
“Shana was FANTASTIC! She took care of my two cats, one being special needs and exceeded all expectations. She came out to my house twice a day for 12 days and left our house looking like the day we left it. This was my first time having someone from Rover come to my house when I have been gone and I felt she was incredibly trustworthy. I would recommend her to anyone and will be using her for all my pet sitting. Please look NO FURTHER when picking a caretaker for your pets. She is the BEST!!!!”
About: I have a four year old orange tabby named Pumpkin that is full of energy! My cat makes sure to keep me on my toes, we regularly visit the vet. I have experience of admitting oral medications via pill and also mixing it into a treat. I also had a cat growing up, so I also have experience with kittens and seniors stages!
“I knew I chose the right person to watch my cat when I met Julia. She is kind and very responsive. She showed a great deal of love and care for my cat. I will certainly use her again for future sittings.”
“We were on a long work trip away, and Emily took care of our cat as if he were her own! She followed all of our instructions, spent time playing and making him at ease, and sent us detailed daily updates about how he was doing. I cannot recommend her highly enough! If you are looking for someone who will be attentive, on time, and thorough with your pets, she is the one!”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats frequently since middle school, often in house sitting settings as well. I have had dogs throughout my entire life and have many friends with cats and have spent ample time with them. I have dealt with numerous animals with health issues or problems, including older pets and puppies. I understand the value of all the little unique things that are important to an owner to ensure their pet is taken care of, healthy, protected and loved to their standard. My family rescued a puppy this past year, and I took on a large responsibility in training and watching him during his more crucial stages. I have worked with and spent time around multiple rescued animals and understand the value of creating a comfortable environment from them and extra care to detail as they often have triggers from past experiences. I also work with puppies through a local breeder and have learned a lot about puppies and their development. I am a skilled problem solver, know how to communicate well and can recognize when over-communication is important. I manage my time well and feel that people in my life would consider me an overachiever in all things I do. I love animals and miss having them to interact with while at school; therefore, time spent with them is always valuable to me. I am currently a full-time student at Coastal Carolina University and play club volleyball. I have always worked and played a sport full time alongside school, and after transferring here recently, I have found myself with time for a job. With a schedule that makes my routine look different day by day I have found this would be a great fit as I can be flexible in working with clients. My weekends are free and I have lots of longer gaps throughout my day between classes which could be valuable to those who have to leave their pets for long periods of time. I'm from colorado so going home is not an option for me often and widens my availbilty. I have experience working in apartments, houses, ect of all kinds. Often my pet care includes house sitting which I am very comfortable with. I understand the value and basic decency of respect to others homes and possesions. The golden rule is a fundamental aspect of how I operate in my day to day and I would never do something I wouldnt want done to me, my pets or my home. I am a very honest person and would not hesitate to communicate anything that happens in my time with clients pets or their homes. Honesty is the best policy and valuable in maintinging proper care. I am a great problem solver and have lots of experience with handling conflict. I have grown up very indepentdent and am confident people in my life would consider me to be highly reliable and responsible. Positions as team captains, tutoring and as an RA speak to these traits.
About: I have had many cats in my lifetime. They are all unique in their own way. I recently rescued a stray, Winnie. I love playing with her and seeing her quirky little things she does. I will be the best cat lady for you.
About: If you are particular about the care of your cat, I'm your girl! My goal is to have them calm and happy while you're away. I have an affinity for them and have been known to be the "cat whisperer" especially for shy or anxious cats. Sometimes, I might even know what they are thinking ;) Catering to their individual personalities is my priority and I love keeping everything clean! No litter trails for you to step on!
About: I have had dogs of my own since I was a child. I have been involved in fostering for local rescues & shelters for 5 years I have co-ran my own 501c3 rescue for almost 3 years I do work full time, so I am gone Monday- Friday from roughly 7A.M until 6 P.M. (depending on how far you are from my job). I drive Uber on the weekends during the summer months, but those hours are flexible & can vary based on your pet's needs. I have a fenced yard, but I have 3 senior dogs of my own and because of running the rescue, I usually have a foster dog as well so taking a dog into my home would be more challenging, but if I were to drop in or stay at your home, your dog(s) would get all of the one on one attention &time that they require
“Samantha was very reliable and spent quality time with Macie (our cat) during her drop-in visits. She kept us informed and posted pictures whenever she did her drop-in visit. We highly recommend Samantha and trust she would take very good care of your fur babies.”
About: Hi, I started pet sitting when I was earning my BS in Animal Science from LSU. Over the years I’ve worked as a vet tech and at medical/ veterinary schools/ teaching hospitals. I’ve been a basic skills/ obedience trainer and watched clients’ pets at their homes or brought them into mine for 35 yrs. I live in a quiet neighborhood 6 miles from Myrtle Beach airport with my 1 year old Lab and his 8 year old All American cat. We love other animals and are very understanding of friends’ individual personalities. We’d love to add your family to ours. I only host one client family's request at a time. Your furry kids will only play with my dog and cat. Caution: let us know if your pets are on a diet because we love treats to bond and offer positive reinforcement. Hope to hear from you soon. I work from home and spend most of the day with my laptop outside on the patio. There’s also a dog door so the pups can come in and out it will if they need the yard or AC. Even when I’m in the office, the door is open. Generally, your pups will only be crated between 10 PM - 6 AM and 6 PM to 8 PM while I’m at the gym. Other than that, my eyes are on them all the time so they can run loose. I do make exceptions for older and/or well-behaved guests. I believe that each animal is an individual so I avoid broad assumptions. Please feel free to ask any questions. I believe in setting pups up for success. This means eliminating situations where they could get into trouble -such as a young dog being loose at night and having an accident, chewing prohibited item, etc. Unfortunately, I’ve seen accidents happen. So I know they can. I treat everyone else’s loved pet as I would a child. It’s a big responsibility that I take very seriously.
“Emily did a wonderful job with my two cats while I was out of town. My cats are everything to me and she made sure they were well taken care of, and went over and above to leave my home in a better state than when she arrived. One of the best I’ve ever had to watch over my little girls!”

“Stefanie was absolutely fantastic and helped us out last minute for Memorial Day weekend. The pricing was fair and we had a phenomenal experience! Our dog was so well loved! Would absolutely book again!”
“I cannot say enough great things about Jody! From the moment we met, I knew my fur baby was in amazing hands. 🐶💖 She sent me regular updates, tons of adorable photos and treated my Alfie like family. Whether it was cuddle time, walks, or playtime, I could tell my dog was happy, relaxed, and so well cared for. Thank you again for being so reliable, loving, and thoughtful. We’re already looking forward to the next stay! 🐾💕”

“This was our second time booking a full day of boarding with Amy, and we couldn’t have been more pleased! My dog comes out when I pick him up with a huge smile on his face, looking completely happy and content. 🐾 Amy is incredibly reliable and responsible, sends updates throughout the day, and gives me such peace of mind when we need to be out doing things without our pup. We’re very grateful to have found her!”
“I had an excellent experience with ma’am janice . She was professional, reliable, and attentive throughout the entire stay. She provided regular updates and took great care of my dog, making me feel completely comfortable while I was away. It was clear my dog was well cared for and happy in her care. I highly recommend her services and would gladly book with her again.” Thank you so much ma’am”
“This was my first time using Rover, and I was greatly pleased with it. I was coming in from out of state so didn't get to meet Darrah before, but she was great with responding to all my questions and was very communicative throughout. I left Casper with her multiple times over my trip and he seemed like he had a great time. I also got tons of great pictures of each stay to show what he was up to throughout his time there, and would definitely leave Casper with Darrah again in the future.”

“I recently had the pleasure of hiring Jacklyn to take care of my dog, Hazel Grace, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Jacklyn was incredibly professional, punctual, and caring, making both Hazel Grace and me feel at ease. From the moment we met, it was clear that she had a genuine love for animals. She took the time to understand Hazel’s routine, preferences, and any specific needs. Hazel Grace is usually quite shy around new people, but Jacklyn’s warm and gentle approach quickly won her over. During the time Jacklyn looked after Hazel, she provided regular updates, including photos, which reassured me that everything was going well. It was evident that Jacklyn was not only ensuring Hazel was fed and exercised, but also showering them with affection and attention. I was particularly impressed with Jacklyn’s attention to detail. When I returned, Hazel was happy, healthy, and clearly well-cared for. Overall, I highly recommend Jacklyn to anyone in need of a reliable and compassionate dog sitter. Her dedication and love for animals truly shine through in her work. Thank you, Jacklyn for taking such wonderful care of Hazel Grace!”
“Michelle was great! She greeted us with her 3 adorable kids who seemed thrilled Teddy would be spending the day with them. Michelle sent us pics of Teddy throughout the day and he was in great spirits when we picked him up. Highly recommend Michelle and we plan to use her again in the future.”
“Our dog had a wonderful day with Karla! Karla sent us pictures and a video to let us see how she was doing and we so appreciated this! I would definitely recommend and will use Karla again!”
“This was the second time we left Teddy with Oceana! She was very accommodating and quick to respond! Teddy was excited to go back! She also sent a picture as well of our happy boy! We will use her again in the future!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs every kind since I was 10 and I’ve been around them my whole life. I love spending time with animals whether it’s a long walk, a hike, or some snuggles on the couch.

About: I’ve been around animals for as long as I can remember. My first job in high school was pet sitting, and then it grew from there. Throughout covid I would post on facebook groups offering to watch people’s animals. As the years went on I still loved pet sitting, and still watching the same animals I have all the previous years before! Ever since moving to south carolina full time I haven’t pet sat as often, but I would love to get back into it since I have a lot of free time now! I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, cats, lizards, and guinea pigs! Over the years I learned how to administrate oral injections and how to apply topical cream to animal. I also have experience with giving medication throughout the day, whether that’s administrating it by mouth or putting it in a treat for them! My schedule typically changes every week, but I am a server and I do not work full time. I am a recent Coastal Carolina graduate, and now have a lot of free time on my hands throughout the day! I would care for your animals just like I was caring for my own fur babies! I do have a cat at home, and if you needed me to keep your animal at my house, I would have no problem putting my animal in another room to keep your animal safe, if they didn’t get along. In my neighborhood I have two dog parks that are fenced in for outdoor activity. If needed to stay at clients home, I would treat the home as my own and act in a respectful manner. Main goal would be to take care of the pet and make sure they are in a safe/ fun environment!
“Jie was super great and super helpful. Highly recommend her for dog walks. My dog came tired from the walk which was very helpful. Thank you so much Jie. Will continue to contact you for more future dog walk for Bruce. Greatful and thankful.”
About: As a pet owner for 20+ years, I have been blessed to care for dogs through every stage of life—from puppies to seniors, including a blind dog and one with mobility challenges. While I am new to Rover, I am not new to the genuine attention, patience, and love that fur babies deserve. My experience also includes completing individual and group K-9 training courses with my own dogs. Agility is in the mix as well, so the back yard is often home to hoops, jumps, tunnels, and weave poles...oh my! Currently, I work full-time, Monday - Thursdays, and half-days on Fridays. Evenings and weekends are dedicated to adventures, cuddles, and the like with my English Spring Spaniel, Granger. Please feel encouraged to message me about dates, times, and the like. If able, I will happily make accommodations. I have a spacious fenced in yard for "fun and run". Crates are preferred for overnight stays. Furbo and Ring are on premises for extra safety and security.
About: I’ve recently retired after 27 years and I’m ready to enjoy working again. My family has always adopted dogs but we have also had a cat and an Iguana! I love all animals and I’m excited to spend time playing with as many pets as I can fit in a day!! I’m not working so I spend my early morning walking my dog, Chandler, because he doesn’t like the heat! I have a flexible schedule and love to take walks so hoping to find a few dogs that want a little more exercise! My dog is a 4 year old mix breed about 35lbs. He gets along with other dogs well so long as they get along I’m happy to take in a dog!

About: The house I grew up in always had dogs around, we used to train them for shows so I have an idea of how to keep pets safe and out of trouble, I have experience with dogs as tiny as a dachshund and as big as a boston mastiff so i’m prepared for anything. I am currently a student at HGTC working on getting my degree in ultrasound tech. I also work part time at the Applebee’s as a server. While all that seems like a lot I actually do get more free time then I expected and I would love to spend that time watching your pets. I like to treat every animal as if it was my own, giving them the same love and respect I would my pets. Whatever you decide is best for how you would like me to watch your animals is how I will do it, it takes a lot of trust to find a sitter so it’s important to me that I follow any guidelines given.

“Shana is great. Rebel is a rescue and very skittish around many people. Shana was very patient, got on the floor and played with him and she was able to make him feel at ease with her very quickly. Shana was always punctual and very easy to work with. If I ever need a dog walker again, I wouldn't hesitate for a minute to get her back. I would highly recommend her to anyone.”
About: Back in 2022 I had one girl ask if I can watch her dog and I told her of course I love dogs and then after that I had so many more people asked me after I told them that I watch dogs and cats and ever since then I absolutely loved what I did. Seeing different types of pets with different personalities made me love it more. So I work throughout the week and I wanted to start only on the weekends first just to get myself through the door but maybe in the future I can make this a full time job Mostly a lot of the animals I took care of I got to be apart of there homes all of them so I got to stay over take care of them play with them take them on long walks feed them and just show them lots and lots of love and attention cause that’s what they need. Every animal is different so whatever the client tells me I will follow instructions through and I love to send lots of pictures of there animals to clients to let them know they are safe and in good hands

“Lisa was wonderful with my dog, Lainey! She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared a lot about making sure Lainey was comfortable and well taken care of. It gave me such peace of mind knowing Lainey was in great hands while I was away. I really appreciated the updates and the time she spent with her. I am absolutely booking with Lisa again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker!”

“Maddie was absolutely exceptional this past weekend. She provided details and sent pictures and videos and our kids especially appreciated that part. She was such a pleasure and will use her time and time again”
“Family friendly home. Fenced yard and clean. My girls were taken great care of, and I was updated through my vacation. I would recommend Amy and will be booking again.”
“I just can’t say enough great things about Janice. Her daily posts about Archie and knowing that she sees and understands his personality makes leaving him a little easier. You can see him smile when she posts photos of him. She genuinely cares for him and he loves it there. Highly recommend Janice.”
“The absolute best! From the moment we met her, I felt completely comfortable leaving Billie in her care. She is incredibly personable, caring, and attentive. Billie came home happy, exhausted from all the fun, and clearly showered with love and attention. She also had a great time playing with her adorable pup! We couldn’t be happier with the experience and can’t wait to book again. Highly recommend!”
“Jacklyn did above and beyond with taking care of my senior dog, Lotus. Very caring for Lotus' for conditions and took care of her with intent. Thank you Jacklyn for making Lotus feel at home and letting her sun bathe ?”
“My Scout had a great stay with Carmen and found a new doggie friend in Tyr. She played and was very comfortable and happy. We will definitely be back next time I need a sitter. Carmen knows dogs and was very reliable and flexible.”

“We booked our pups stay for 5 nights with Samantha at the last minute when our original plans fell through. She was prompt with all communications, particularly when we messaged to check in on Toby. She sent several pictures and updates over the course of the stay- cute little videos of him playing with their puppy. She shared her concerns with us when Toby didn't eat well the first couple days, but let us know when his appetite returned. :) The night we picked Toby up we had a flight delay, and they were so kind and accommodating with the change in our plans. Toby was happy to see us and very tired from all his playing. :) Thanks Samantha!”
“We had quite an eventful day when tried to head on our vacation. Needless to say we didn't get there when we wanted. However, Jenna stayed up until we were able to arrive and was very kind. Both my dogs immediately went up to her and you could tell that they were both going to be great. I've never left my dogs with someone that I wasn't close with so I was nervous. But Jenna sent videos of them playing and took some pictures so it easily calmed my nerves. We will definitely use her again if we ever go there. Oh! Jenna also has a really cool dog room in her house for the pups to sleep and it is awesome! We will be using Rover from now on. ”
About: When I was growing up, I woke up every morning to the sounds of some sort of pet feet on the floor; There were cats, dogs, rats, hamsters, birds, reptiles, and everything in between being cared for by myself and my family at some point or another - I guess you could say my love for animals comes honestly! Can't get enough frame-worthy photos of your favorite four-legged kids? ...me either. That must be why I take A TON of pride in photographing your fur-babies and providing some great candid, funny, and of course, debonair shots during my visits - so be sure to have some empty frames on hand, just in case ;) I am comfortable and experienced with a myriad of dog breeds and different animals (please feel free to reach out with special requests!!), and I am happy to provide drop-in's just to visit, feed and cuddle your dog, cats, ferrets, etc. - I am even more pleased to offer a walk or run that is personally catered to your pup - old or young, big or small, and I am fortunate to have plenty of flexibility to do it. Hour-long walks are available upon request, and I can often arrange an even longer extended outing by request, as well - maybe a trip to the park or beach while you have a day-date or a spa day! :) You will also notice that I offer a price break per visit on each pet after the first. If your pet comes to our home, he or she will have access to plenty of space in our large, fenced in backyard. We are also in a very pet-friendly neighborhood for walks, without a lot of traffic. I will only accept one dog per sitting (unless from the same home), to ensure your pet gets the best care and all the spoiling during its stay with us. Please note that the other dog listed on my account is actually my "dog-brother", and he does not reside in our home :) Please reach out with questions about pets other than cats and dogs!

“Jaelyn is one of my favorite Rover sitters that I’ve encountered so far. I’m so happy that Jaelyn and (and friends,) and my pup Shady, all seemed to be such a great fit for each other. I could tell through the many messages and awesome photos I received, that Shady was getting so much love. He has been so worn out this evening after spending his wonderful weekend adventures with Jaelyn.”
“This is our 3rd time using Karla - the first time was just for daycare, the 2nd and 3rd time were for 4 overnight stays. Karla is very caring and communicative — she sends videos through the day to keep us informed and reassured that our dog is doing well. We will certainly use Karla again as the need arises.”
“I felt very comfortable leaving my older small dog with Nicole. She sent lots of pictures and was reassuring, and my dog was in great shape and very happy when I picked her up. Will be using Nicole again!”
“I've been sitting dogs and doing dog walks for years and Ilana was everything we could have hoped for. She was kind enough to provide dog food for our pup Sylvia since we forget hers at home and her dog Tony was wonderful and playful. She was communicative before our stay and quick to respond. I can't recommend her more highly!”
“Oceana is without a doubt the best dog sitter we've had. She is super accommodating and extremely friendly. Also our dog loves her! Will be rebooking again in the future!”
