“Martina was a great sitter to Sadé! She gave Sadé plenty of outside time and her kids were great with Sadé as well. She was accommodating and flexible with her schedule. I will definitely book again!”
“Oralee always takes such good care of my dogs. It’s a good feeling when you can go away and know that your dogs are being loved and playing with their doggy friends and that they are having so much fun. I love the pictures she sends daily. They help the kids not miss them so much. I highly recommend Oralee. I’m so grateful I found her.”
“Yolanda was wonderful! We were able to go over and meet her, see her home, where our pup would stay, see her meet the other dogs, etc. It gave us peace about leaving her. She was a wonderful communicator and kept us informed on how Cora was adjusting. When I picked her up she had her all ready to go - she had her stuffed nicely packed up and Cora on her leash. It was a wonderful first experience and I look forward to the relationship that we have started to help care for our girl!”
“First time boarding my pup and Lexie made it a great process. Amazing facility and attention to care. Got updates daily. Will definitely go through her again if I need boarding services.”
“This was my 1st time ever using a pet sitter and it was a great experience, Daquan sent updates throughout the day. Our small morkie is very shy and scary and she broke out of her shell, my fur babies were very comfortable. Will definitely rebook again if needed.”
“This was our first time ever leaving our dog ! He is 14 months and still quite the puppy. Tracy and her family were amazing and I looked forward to the fun pictures she sent. I know Jeter had a fun time ! So very happy with everything !”
“The boys seemed well cared for! Nice to have a dog lovers home to leave your precious ones with when gone for extended stretch of time! Becky was great, very friendly and enthusiastic about dogs.”
About: I’ve grown up with cats and dogs my entire life and began pet sitting for neighbors and family friends around the age of 10. I’ve had a dog of my own for about 6 years now who gets along very well with other dogs and cats. Happy to care for pets of any age and willing to administer medications or provide other special needs to pets if needed. I have a lot of free time in the next couple of months as I am waiting to start a job a few months from now. I will have plenty of time to drop in to check on pets, regular walks, and boarding! I have a very friendly dog that gets along well with cats and dogs alike. I am happy to welcome your pet into my home or come to your home to care for your fur babies too.
“Chad was absolutely wonderful and Beatrice had the best time with him and his family. He took great care of her and sent regular updates on how she was going and how she was settling in. Definitely recommend!”
About: I’ve owned animals since a young child and love them! I am first aid and CPR certified and dedicated to providing safety and comfort to any animals I visit. I love animals and your pets are safe with me! I work flexible hours and can easily handle any requests! I can accommodate most anything you or your pets would need. I am centrally located and efficient as well. I have a fenced yard and one dog that is used to others. My home is a safe space for animals. My yard is safe, clean and a great space to run and play in.
“I have no choice but to recommend 10/10. She kept us updated throughout our pups stay and sent plenty of pictures. With all the time they spent at the park, our boys still tired days later. Highly recommend.”
“Caroline was amazing! This was the first time we used Rover and she made things super easy. Her house is precious and sets up perfectly for a variety of dogs. Caroline did a wonderful job accommodating our pup’s needs and we will definitely use her again when we come to Columbia. Thanks for everything Caroline!”
“What can I say about Qais? He was absolutely awesome with my Rocco! I truly appreciated the photos and consistent communication throughout the stay—it really put my mind at ease knowing Rocco was in good hands. Qais showed a genuine level of care, attention, and concern that meant so much to me. I could tell that Rocco was well cared for and comfortable. Thank you for providing such excellent service and peace of mind. I would highly recommend Quais to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pet!”
About: I am comfortable caring for dogs with different needs, including puppies who require structure and routine, as well as senior dogs who may need a calmer, more controlled environment. I also pay close attention to feeding schedules, behavior, and any special instructions provided by the owner. Overall, I focus on providing a safe, calm, and reliable home-style boarding experience where your dog is treated with care and consistency. Pet care is built into my daily routine with a consistent and structured schedule. I work close to home, which allows me to check on the dogs multiple times throughout the day. While I am away, dogs are safely kenneled in a clean, climate controlled indoor space with access to water, bedding, and toys. This ensures their safety and prevents any issues between dogs. I provide care in a structured, safe, and clean home-style environment tailored to each dog’s needs. In my home setup, dogs have a designated indoor boarding space that is climate-controlled and kept clean at all times. Each dog has their own kennel area for rest, along with comfortable bedding, water, and toys. While I am away, dogs are safely kenneled to prevent any issues and ensure a calm environment. I follow a consistent daily routine that includes morning, midday, and evening check-ins. During these times, dogs are walked, fed according to their specific schedule, and monitored closely. I keep detailed notes on feeding instructions, behavior, and any special care needs to make sure each dog’s routine is followed exactly as requested. When I am home, dogs receive supervised playtime and are welcome to relax in a separate lounge area for a more comfortable, home like experience. I limit the number of dogs I take at one time to ensure each pet receives personal attention and care.
About: As a lifelong dog lover and devoted animal enthusiast, I understand the unique needs of our furry friends. Having grown up surrounded by dogs, I’ve developed a deep bond and passion for their care. My pet care service is rooted in love and experience, ensuring your dog receives the attention, companionship, and tailored care they deserve. Trust that your beloved pet will be in capable and caring hands. I just graduated from the University of South Carolina and I am currently working a part time job so I have plenty of time to care for your furry friends! In clients' homes, I maintain their pets' routines to minimize stress, providing familiar surroundings and personalized care. I offer regular updates, engage in playtime, and ensure all safety measures are in place. My goal is to make every pet feel loved and secure.
“Wow…..Robin was amazing! I appreciate the correspondence, her flexibility with our schedule, and the treatment of our fur baby. Our coco is older with separation anxiety and Robin went above and beyond to make her comfortable. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Amazing experience…. And coco thinks so too!”
About: I personally take the responsibility of caring for someone’s pet. I truly treat every dog like family. I have hands-on experience caring for puppies, including helping them learn routines with patience and positive reinforcement. I’m also very gentle and attentive with senior dogs and cats making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and never rushed. My experience babysitting and volunteering at CPR classes has taught me to be responsible, observant, and calm in any situation. As a Sports Medicine major at Voorhees University, I also understand the importance of movement, safety, and overall well-being. I naturally pay attention to a pets behavior, energy level, and comfort. I especially love caring for strong, affectionate, pets and I enjoy building trust with every dog I meet. Pet parents can relax knowing their dog is getting patient care, attention, and lots of love while they’re away. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I plan my days around responsibility and consistency. I keep a structured schedule, so feeding times, walks, playtime, and check-ins are always planned and never rushed. During the week, I build time into my mornings and evenings for walks, exercise, and making sure each dog is comfortable and doing well. On weekends, I have even more flexibility for longer visits, extra playtime, and companionship. My experience babysitting has made me very used to planning ahead, staying attentive, and sticking to routines that help others feel safe and cared for. Caring for animals doesn’t feel like an extra task to me — it’s something I genuinely enjoy. I especially make sure every dog gets consistent attention, patience, and lots of love. I provide pets with a safe, comfortable, and loving environment, following their daily routines for feeding, exercise, and bathroom breaks. I monitor their behavior and health closely, addressing any concerns promptly. I keep their space clean and engaging, providing toys, affection, or play based on their personality. I also communicate with owners about updates and special instructions to ensure consistent, high-quality care.
About: I have worked at a doggy daycare and own 3 dogs of my own. I have owned dogs my whole life. We have had chickens as well. I love animals and plan to have many fur babies in the future. I work on Monday-Friday from 8-5. My husband works from home and can let them out often. We are also home all weekend to love on your babies. I will take care of and love your babies like my own my fur babies and make sure you feel comfortable when away from them and send lots of videos and pictures.

About: I've had animals all my life. I've taken care of everything from dogs and cats to lizards and guinea pigs. My dogs are well trained, I have a 2 year old German Shepard and a 9 month old cat currently. They have had plenty of exposure with other animals. I love to interact with new animals and they will be under the best care when with me. I will strive to give your loved ones the attention they need. Im currently working part-time time with a lot of freedom in my scheduling. Pet sitting gets me out of the house and it is mutually rewarding to spend my time caring for animals. My 3 year old German Shepard and 1 yr old cat offer a fun friend to play with. Plenty of toys and treats available. House is big enough to divide spaces if breaks are needed. Schedules are put in place as to ease transitions from one home to the other.

Couch and beds are occupied by myself and our animals. My home, is there home too. I am good with behaviors with animals with the training i've had our animals to, and have had myself. Your beloved babies will be loved and safe with me. I am always the one to take care of others animals so i decided to give this a shot to help others with their animals that need to be watched and make sure they are comfortable while their parents are away.

“This was my first Rover experience and I'm so happy I booked with Tracy! My fur baby, Theo, seemed to be well taken care of all day and very entertained. He was tired and content when we came to get him at the end of the day. I couldn't have asked for better! He got to run around outside with her dogs, play, and also some downtime to snuggle. We will see them again, for sure!”
About: I’ve grown up with cats and dogs my entire life and began pet sitting for neighbors and family friends around the age of 10. I’ve had a dog of my own for about 6 years now who gets along very well with other dogs and cats. Happy to care for pets of any age and willing to administer medications or provide other special needs to pets if needed. I have a lot of free time in the next couple of months as I am waiting to start a job a few months from now. I will have plenty of time to drop in to check on pets, regular walks, and boarding! I have a very friendly dog that gets along well with cats and dogs alike. I am happy to welcome your pet into my home or come to your home to care for your fur babies too.
“Lexie was great with communication. Huck had a great day with the other dogs! I appreciated that she rinsed him off before I picked him up too. He had fun in the run and got a bit dirty. :). Loved the horses, goats and chickens. Will use again- only drawback is location isn’t very close to my home.”
“Caroline was a gem we are so thankful we were able to find her with such short notice since we were in town for my brothers army graduation and glad she was able to work with us and our fur baby. We can tell Toby( our fur baby) just had an amazing time with her and the other pups she was very appreciative to him and updated us throughout his day. Will definitely be booking with her again if we come back into town.”
About: Ever since I was little I've preferred the company of pets over people. My first job was at petco as a sales associate then after in the grooming salon and there i blossomed into who I am now! Currently taking a break from work after my stroke and what better way to spend that down time than cuddling with your babies? My favorite thing to do is work with animals and it truly does not feel like work to me. I dont have a fenced in yard so all walks are on leash. I do have long lines for times they need to stretch their legs and will be adding seperated fenced in areas for the dogs to have some safe secure fun in the good weather times.
“Teia was comfortable with qais from the start. We appreciated the many updates with pics and video of the great walk he took teia on. Teia will definitely stay with qais again!”

“I can't say enough wonderful things about Kim and her husband Mickey. They responded immediately and was so helpful and friendly. Even worked with my unknown hours. They cared for my 7 month old puppy Luke he was a KING! They had great, well behaved dogs that he loved and played with non stop. They always lake them to sog parks and my puppy is exausted when we get home which is wonderful because so are we. I am so blessed to have met them and their sweetness for my puppy and helping us find places to eat or see around the new town. Thor ( our puppy) now knows when we go towards their place and races up to their door. Mickey loves the animals as much or maybe more than Kim which is incredible they both adore animals so much. Kim is so helpful and always willing to accommodate any need. I wouldn't use anyone else!!!!”

“Gloria was a lifesaver! We needed a last minute dogsitter and she and her family took excellent care of our pup. She was very thorough in the care even for watching him for a short time. I highly recommend her!”
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember — caring for them isn’t just something I do, it’s something I love. I’ve shared my life with so many kinds of creatures over the years: dogs, cats, horses, goats, chickens, rabbits, birds, fish, hamsters, and even a bearded dragon. Each one has taught me something about presence, trust, and unconditional love. I have a calm, confident energy that helps animals feel safe and seen. I’m comfortable with senior pets, puppies, and those who need medication or special care. I’ve been doing this for over twenty years, and I bring both deep experience and genuine heart to every animal I meet. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, house sitting, and doggy daycare — everything except overnight stays in my home. Whether your pet needs a peaceful companion, an attentive caregiver, or someone who simply gets them, I’ll show up with gentleness, reliability, and real love. As a stay-at-home potter, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets consistent, loving care. I can provide morning and afternoon visits for walks, meals, and play, as well as in-home care during longer stretches while I manage my creative work. Weekends or flexible blocks allow for longer walks, extra playtime, or special needs care. My schedule lets me meet pets’ needs while keeping a calm, attentive presence. I know what it’s like to love your pets like family — I’ve had animals in my life my whole life, and I understand how hard it can be to trust someone else with them. That’s why I bring calm, confident energy and treat every pet as if they were my own. I love caring for pets right in their own home, where they feel safe and comfortable. Being in a familiar space helps them stay relaxed, happy, and stress-free while you’re away. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages — from playful puppies to seniors — and with pets who need medication or special care. Whether it’s walks, playtime, meals, cuddles, or just quiet companionship, I make sure every pet feels loved, safe, and understood. I also keep your home cared for, so you can have peace of mind while you’re gone.
About: Hi, I’m Sierra! I’ve been around animals my whole life. I have over 10 years of experience in pet care services, and I’m passionate about providing loving and reliable care for your furry friends. I also have a 7 year old dog named Karson who’s super friendly and loves meeting new friends! I work from 8 AM to 4:30 PM on weekdays and have open availability on weekends. On weekdays, I come home during my break to let the dogs out and give them some love. Every day after work, the first thing we do is head outside to play in the yard! I have a pet-friendly house with a privacy fence, so your pet has plenty of space to play and relax safely. I’ll be giving them lots of love and care. I have an extra-large crate available if your dog needs one for any reason.
About: I’ve had a toy poodle for over 13 years. She’s up in age and sometimes I have yo assist her outside and even bringing her back up the steps from time to time. I have a younger Maltese who’s very playful and we throw the ball around every time I get home. I love giving the dogs treats and rewarding them for good behavior. I’ve taught them how to give paw on command. They have a schedule that they go buy and follows it to a T! I have my dogs on a daily schedule and let them out 3-4 times a day. My parents let them out in the morning and the second half of the morning or lye morning I let them out. Then, the afternoon comes and they go out about two to three more times. It all depends on how they feel or if they want fresh air. I don’t have a fenced yard. But, I live in a cul-de-sac and I can walk the dogs there or have them on a leash while in the front yard. I give fresh water daily to my dogs and it’s the ph water rather than faucet. They get baths every two weeks to a month.
“We needed someone for the day to watch our doodle and Dolly came to the rescue! She was very quick to respond to my messages and very easy to coordinate drop off/ pick up times. We are very appreciative and Stevie enjoyed her stay!!”
“Maggie was fantastic. We needed someone to watch our dog, Teddy, for part of the day while we were visiting from out of town. Maggie was quick to respond when I initially reached out and made sure she knew everything she would need to take care of our dog for his stay. Teddy can get nervous when we leave him, but Maggie and her dog were the perfect companions for him. Teddy was in a great mood when we picked him up, and we would definitely leave him with Maggie again if we are back in the area.”

“Oralee is excellent and patient with my new rescue pup Jasper. Her communication is top notch when she is taking care of him while I’m at work. He is such a sweet shy boy and she has put him at ease on their walks.”
About: Since the 3rd grade I’ve enjoyed taking care of various breeds of dogs. Having a furry friend of my own most of life implemented the care and compassion needed to take care of our furry companions and i’ve always enjoyed doing so. As a senior in college, my schedule doesn’t really fit a traditional 9–5, but it’s perfect for pet care! I love having the flexibility to pop in for walks, playtime, or quick visits throughout the week. I have a completely fenced in yard, screened back deck, crates, doggy beds, and lots of toys! When in town from school, I also have a playful Maltese that wouldn’t mind keeping your furry friend company.
About: I’ve had my own 3 dogs for the last 6 years. Before that, I would take care of my friends animals. I often dog sit and cat sit for close friends and family. Figured I would do it on here, too! I have trained all of my dogs, nothing crazy. Just the basics. One of my dogs does have health issues and another has really bad allergies so I definitely know what it’s like to have a certain routine per animal. All my animals needs are different and I’m here to provide that to lessen your stress ☺️ All day, all night!!! I am also able to travel. I drive a lot so I don’t mind if I have to travel a bit. I would love for the pet owners to give me a run down no matter what! Even if your animal is low maintenance. My dogs are high maintenance so I’m also used to that. I just like specific instructions, I feel it makes it easier for everyone involved! Especially if I’m pet sitting in your home. That’s your safe space.

About: I've worked at an Animal Shelter for about 7 years. I've also worked and The Animal Advocate for about a 4 years. My duties were to walk them, bathe them, feed them, play with them and etc. I loved my job very much. I’m self-employed so I’m available when need to be.

About: Animal lover to the max! I would love to run/walk with your dog, have play time, or any other activity desired rain or shine. I have 2 dogs of my own who love their play time and daily walks. I’ve had dogs my whole life and love to spoil and care for them. I am able to care for multiple dogs if needed. I was previously a dog nanny for 4 dogs and have gained lots of experience in walking multiples. Your dogs will be treated like family and we will both enjoy the interaction! I frequently dog sit for my friends and family and would love to care for all dogs. I am a huge dog enthusiast and would love to help! I am always available on weekends. I really love getting to meet so many dogs and care for them! Dogs are my passion in life, so it’s only natural for me to be a dog walker/sitter. I treat all dogs and cats like my own! Their safety and well-being are my top priority. I carry dog repellants with me when I walk to protect the dogs in emergencies. I am also careful to not allow outside interaction with other pets or people while they’re walking with me to ensure safety.
About: Background/experience in veterinary medicine. I am very comfortable with giving medication, taking care of special needs/senior pets. I treat every pet as if they are my own. I currently own my own equine business which means I set my own hours. I am a very active person so including other animal duties into my daily life is not difficult. I treat each pet as if they were my own. I would do everything I could to keep them comfortable in their own home while their owners are away. Even if that means sitting on the floor while they take a nap so they don't feel alone.

I will stick to your pets routine as well!
About: Hi, I’m Madison! I am a USC graduate and young professional in Columbia, SC. I am a HUGE pet lover but unfortunately my pets live a few hours away with my parents. I am trying to find some fur babies to love on while I am here. I have 8+ years of babysitting and pet- sitting experience. I have a cozy home with a fenced yard for your babies to play. I am willing to come to your house as well. I will also send you updates of your pets while you are away, if you would like! Let me know if I can help you out in any way! I work from home and work part-time at night. I will have plenty of time to spend playing or relaxing with your pups. They will be taken out for potty breaks regularly as well. I have a fenced in yard and also a spare room for your pup to play if they choose. I try not to keep more than one family’s dogs at a time, but I will let you know if I am caring for any others.
About: As early as I can remember as a young girl Ive always had a strong love & was always with my dogs. It might’ve been play, bathing them, or training! Dogs are my passion, although I love all animals and have experience with cats, small animals and reptiles. Now that I’m an adult I have my own fur babies and spend all my time exploring and training with them, Im so excited to meet yours and treat them like my very own!!! I’m currently working part-time so I have a lot of time for your pets needs! I am available for overnights, early morning, late evenings. I work a few hours Sat-Mon but still available for boarding overnights😊 I have a fenced in yard with two dogs who love to play. I also have kennels in my home if ever necessary. I love training dogs and have quite a bit of experience teaching a loose-leash walk! I also train obedience with positive reinforcement! Training is very important to me and the dogs being comfortable with me is also very important! I’ve never met a dog I didn’t like or a dog who didn’t like me back☺️
About: I have 25 years of experience as a pet sitter being self-dubbed the "overnight queen" as I specialize in overnight stays of any length. The dogs and I have FUN slumber parties during which I fully engage with and interact with them, playing with their toys and giving the most excellent tummy rubs imaginable! Owners are happy too as they return to a happy pet - dogs "tell" by their behavior and in over 500 pet sits, every dog has been safe, sound ... and happy! In fact, many owners say I did a great job because "my dog acted like it didn't even know I was away!" All dogs love me ... and I love them. Dogs are people, too - only better ! I am self-employed so can set my schedule, especially with as much advance notice as possible. I often bring my little 9 pound, Shih Tzu, which I keep and a carry crate and kennel that has worked out fine with both dogs and cats. We can arrange a meet and greet ahead of time to make sure everyone is comfortable. I have separate bedrooms if dogs need their own privacy, but I do try to have dogs interact and be friends. I have a long hallway to play fun games and go get it!
About: As an animal owner myself, I know what I look for in a pet sitter, your fur babies will be cared for just as you care for them. I also do photography as a hobby, you will always have cute photos sent to you. I am a stay at home mom, because my schedule is flexible, I'm able to work around what is needed for taking care of your fur babies. I have found that when a new person enters an animals schedule, staying on the schedule they are used to helps everyone adjust. I feel keeping the animal (s) on a schedule they're used to is helpful.
About: Born and raised with animals. I've had wolf hybrids, to little chihuahua doggies. I love animals more than anything, and will treat yours like they were ours. I spoil my animals I have and some say i treat them better than some people get treated. That's just who I am. I will always be an animal person. Couch and beds are occupied by myself and our animals. My home, is there home too. I am good with behaviors with animals with the training i've had our animals to, and have had myself. Your beloved babies will be loved and safe with me. I am always the one to take care of others animals so i decided to give this a shot to help others with their animals that need to be watched and make sure they are comfortable while their parents are away.
About: I've had animals all my life. I've taken care of everything from dogs and cats to lizards and guinea pigs. My dogs are well trained, I have a 2 year old German Shepard and a 9 month old cat currently. They have had plenty of exposure with other animals. I love to interact with new animals and they will be under the best care when with me. I will strive to give your loved ones the attention they need. Im currently working part-time time with a lot of freedom in my scheduling. Pet sitting gets me out of the house and it is mutually rewarding to spend my time caring for animals. My 3 year old German Shepard and 1 yr old cat offer a fun friend to play with. Plenty of toys and treats available. House is big enough to divide spaces if breaks are needed. Schedules are put in place as to ease transitions from one home to the other.

“Martina was a great sitter to Sadé! She gave Sadé plenty of outside time and her kids were great with Sadé as well. She was accommodating and flexible with her schedule. I will definitely book again!”
“Oralee always takes such good care of my dogs. It’s a good feeling when you can go away and know that your dogs are being loved and playing with their doggy friends and that they are having so much fun. I love the pictures she sends daily. They help the kids not miss them so much. I highly recommend Oralee. I’m so grateful I found her.”
“Yolanda was wonderful! We were able to go over and meet her, see her home, where our pup would stay, see her meet the other dogs, etc. It gave us peace about leaving her. She was a wonderful communicator and kept us informed on how Cora was adjusting. When I picked her up she had her all ready to go - she had her stuffed nicely packed up and Cora on her leash. It was a wonderful first experience and I look forward to the relationship that we have started to help care for our girl!”
“First time boarding my pup and Lexie made it a great process. Amazing facility and attention to care. Got updates daily. Will definitely go through her again if I need boarding services.”
“This was my 1st time ever using a pet sitter and it was a great experience, Daquan sent updates throughout the day. Our small morkie is very shy and scary and she broke out of her shell, my fur babies were very comfortable. Will definitely rebook again if needed.”
“This was our first time ever leaving our dog ! He is 14 months and still quite the puppy. Tracy and her family were amazing and I looked forward to the fun pictures she sent. I know Jeter had a fun time ! So very happy with everything !”
About: I’ve grown up with cats and dogs my entire life and began pet sitting for neighbors and family friends around the age of 10. I’ve had a dog of my own for about 6 years now who gets along very well with other dogs and cats. Happy to care for pets of any age and willing to administer medications or provide other special needs to pets if needed.

“What can I say about Qais? He was absolutely awesome with my Rocco! I truly appreciated the photos and consistent communication throughout the stay—it really put my mind at ease knowing Rocco was in good hands. Qais showed a genuine level of care, attention, and concern that meant so much to me. I could tell that Rocco was well cared for and comfortable. Thank you for providing such excellent service and peace of mind. I would highly recommend Quais to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pet!”
About: I am comfortable caring for dogs with different needs, including puppies who require structure and routine, as well as senior dogs who may need a calmer, more controlled environment. I also pay close attention to feeding schedules, behavior, and any special instructions provided by the owner. Overall, I focus on providing a safe, calm, and reliable home-style boarding experience where your dog is treated with care and consistency. Pet care is built into my daily routine with a consistent and structured schedule. I work close to home, which allows me to check on the dogs multiple times throughout the day. While I am away, dogs are safely kenneled in a clean, climate controlled indoor space with access to water, bedding, and toys. This ensures their safety and prevents any issues between dogs. I provide care in a structured, safe, and clean home-style environment tailored to each dog’s needs. In my home setup, dogs have a designated indoor boarding space that is climate-controlled and kept clean at all times. Each dog has their own kennel area for rest, along with comfortable bedding, water, and toys. While I am away, dogs are safely kenneled to prevent any issues and ensure a calm environment. I follow a consistent daily routine that includes morning, midday, and evening check-ins. During these times, dogs are walked, fed according to their specific schedule, and monitored closely. I keep detailed notes on feeding instructions, behavior, and any special care needs to make sure each dog’s routine is followed exactly as requested. When I am home, dogs receive supervised playtime and are welcome to relax in a separate lounge area for a more comfortable, home like experience. I limit the number of dogs I take at one time to ensure each pet receives personal attention and care.
About: I have worked at a doggy daycare and own 3 dogs of my own. I have owned dogs my whole life. We have had chickens as well. I love animals and plan to have many fur babies in the future. I work on Monday-Friday from 8-5. My husband works from home and can let them out often. We are also home all weekend to love on your babies. I will take care of and love your babies like my own my fur babies and make sure you feel comfortable when away from them and send lots of videos and pictures.
About: Hi I am an active duty Army Officer. I currently have one German shorthair pointer & 2 cats of my own. I would love the opportunity to take care of anyone’s animals! I grew up on a farm with horses & chickens so farm animals are extremely familiar as well! I have a very flexible schedule with work. I come home during lunch for a few hours and I am home early! I am able to leave work during the day if needed! I am willing to follow your directions and needs case by case with each pet. Just let me know and I will do exactly what is needed and wanted!
About: I started my own pet-sitting business when I was 8 years old, complete with business cards I designed on a computer game. During high school, I worked at Riverbanks Zoo learning, training, & teaching about hundreds of different animals! I learned the importance of consistency, engagement, and enrichment. I have raised and trained two well behaved puppies and generally love working with any pets- I will always be loving and put your pet's wellbeing first. With dogs, I am patient, competent, and firm. With cats, I am gentle and quick to win them over. I practice positive reinforcement and will play with your dog too! PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING: I recently finished my graduate degree and my next steps involve a lot of flexibility and free time! I’m also an early riser and enjoy morning walks with my dog (or yours!). Right now, if the distance is close enough, I can accommodate walks and drop-ins fairly easily. If you are looking for overnight stays (house-sitting; my most requested service), I may be able to accommodate you. I have to be selective and take only one or two bookings per month due to my household's needs. *PLEASE NOTE: New Meet and Greet Fee* I add a $15 fee for Meet and Greets for bookings (total cost of services) less than $150. This helps make up for gas and time spent to ensure we are a good fit. This fee is waived for services that total $150 or more. By requesting services, you are agreeing to have this fee added to your total. If your dog is extremely well behaved + cat friendly, I can accommodate occasional daytime boarding (doggy day-care). I have a fenced in yard and a very well behaved and friendly mini golden doodle (40lbs) and two awesome cats. I don’t let dogs on furniture unless invited, but I can promise a mix of awesome play time and cuddle time.
About: Hi, my name is Sergii. I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for over 35 years. Now I have 2 dogs: a poodle and a boxer. My wife and I love dogs and they love us. We treat our dogs more like family members than pets. We know how it’s difficult to be away from your pup, regardless if it is only a couple of hours or days. We are a team - two very experienced dog owners. We have experience with senior dogs&cats, and pets with special needs; dogs&cats who are highly anxious, and pets who are hyper activity and need a lot of care and attention. Now we put our animal expertise to our small business for pet services. We aim to ensure your dog receives just as much love and care as it does in your presence. I’m willing to feed, walk and play with your dogs when you are not available. My schedule changes from week to week, as I’m still engaged in the transportation of pets, so always have wife for backup. We really care about healthy life style and guarantee the best care for them. I certified the American Red Cross for pet first aid as well. All animals under my care are insured, insurance policy included veterinarian reimbursement. Meeting new animal friends is something that will always bring me joy. Your dog will be in the professional and loving care when under my watch. If I sound like someone you could trust to care for your fur babies, please send me message. DROP-IN VISIT (At your house) I can go to your home multiple times per day to feed your pets food/water, go outside to potty & play, administer medications, etc. Just let me know how many times per day you’d like me to drop-in to check up on your pets/how much time you’d like me to spend while there and what you’d like me to do during drop-in visits and I will make it happen. A care summary report and photos of my drop-in visit with your pets will be sent after each drop-in. DOGGIE WALKS Walks are 30 minutes long, but can also include playtime if requested (e.g 20 minute walk + 10 minutes of play time). Meals, treats, water, and medication can be given before or after the walk if requested, just let me know and I would be more than happy to do that. A care summary report and photos from our walk will be sent after each walk. HOUSE SITTING I can care for your animals in your own home by ensuring your animals are safe and well cared for. I'll spend as much time with your pet as needed so that they have a true companion in your absence. I believe that the best pet care is done when your pet is in his/her own surroundings. I make sure gates and doors are closed and locked when needed, I follow safety checks in the home to ensure your pets are protected. In my clients home I will happily comply with any instructions to keep your pups safe. Anything that is needed for your fur babies!
