“Wonderful, wonderful care! Ann is such a loving and caring pet sitter. She is thoughtful of each animal and gives her all! So grateful to have found her, and thankful that my dogs were well cared for during their stay!”
“This is our second time leaving our dog with Sylvie and will definitely continue in the future. She took great care of our dog and sent us pictures every day. I would highly recommend her.”
“Tara was great with Trapper. She was super flexible and easy to work with and sent several pics so we knew he was having fun and being well taken care of. We weren’t sure if he’d be ok playing with her dogs, but they were super sweet and immediately accepted him as part of the group. He had a blast while we were away.”
“Tracy was amazing with our doggy son! We have always left him with the same sitter for the last 5 years but she was not available for the week we had to go on vacation. We were so relieved he was taken care of with the BEST treatment and love there was to give as she sent pictures and videos the whole trip!”
“I highly recommend Kimi! My dog Maisie stayed with her family for two nights. She gave me frequent updates and sent pictures, which was appreciated and put me at ease knowing Maisie was happy and getting regular walks. Thanks so much and we look forward to booking with Kimi again soon :)”
“Our senior dog, Maggie, loved her stay with Laura and her family. Laura sent us pictures and kept us informed on how Maggie was doing with her. I would definitely use Laura again! Maggie felt like she was on a vacation!”
“Sara was wonderful with Koda. Sara paid attention to all of Kodas needs. She sent such great pictures of Koda while we were gone and kept in touch. Definitely using her again. Thank you again!”
About: As a lifelong dog lover and current online college student, I offer a highly flexible, work-from-home schedule that ensures your pet will have constant supervision, regular bathroom breaks, and company throughout the day. What sets me apart is my ability to adapt to your pet's specific stage of life; I am fully equipped to handle the high-energy demands, potty training, and crate routines of young puppies, but I'm equally patient and observant when it comes to the quiet environments and precise medication schedules required by senior dogs. Ultimately, I focus on routine consistency, molding my daily schedule entirely around your dog’s normal habits to keep their anxiety low and make them feel right at home. I work from home and stay around town, so caring for your fur-babies is no trouble at all! If they do well with car rides, I am more than happy to bring them along to run any errands or to the ball fields! I have a large yard, plenty of room inside, two sweet and playful dogs to keep them company, and a 6 year old boy who loves puppy cuddles and all the play time he can get!
“Mikaela was amazing! Flexible with our changing schedule. She sent us updates and photos multiple times throughout the day which made us feel more comfortable about leaving our fur baby behind. The kennels were spotless and the run area was large and well kept. We would definitely use her again.”
About: I grew up on a farm caring for all types of animals. I’ve always had to make sure all of them were feed and water. I’ve dog sit for family friends before while they went out of town and i had to go to their house and feed, water them, take them out to play and use the bathroom, gave them baths if they need them. I took care and dog sit all kinds of animals and sizes, from puppies to older dogs, and even cats too, all up to farm animals. I’m a stay at home mom to a 2 year old. I have a 3 year old male dog that’s unaltered. I’m available anytime to dog sit or board. I have a house with a nice little yard for your fur babies to run and play! I’m always going outside every 2-3 hours almost to walk my dog. Of course I will walk your dog first because I know my dog can hold it until afterwards
“Pamela was great to my little Henry! This was Henry's first experience with a sitter and it was for 5 nights! My family and I were so nervous to see how Henry would adjust to a new environment. Pamela's home was very clean and welcoming. Her communication was great and her detailed daily updates and pictures really put us at ease and made us feel confident that he was adjusting well. Henry looked so relaxed and easy going in the pictures. I am so happy to have found Pamela and if we need a sitter in the future I would definitely book with her again!”
“The first time I board my dog somewhere new, I am always a little uneasy, but as soon as I met Licia in her lovely and cheerful home I felt completely at ease about leaving my dearest little canine companion in her care. Licia sent several text updates with photos, and I could see that my dog was settling in very well and quite comfortable. I am so happy and grateful to have found Licia and Pete and will not hesitate to board with them again!”
“This was the first time my girl stayed away from home and with someone that was not family! I am very happy with my experience. Would recommend to others and use again myself! Communication superb!”
“Summer was great -- so reliable and responsive! We were visiting relatives for a football game at Clemson and we had our dog in tow. Summer watched our dog for the whole afternoon and was very understanding about the late evening pick up, given how long night football games can go. Summer sent photos and took great care of our guy, and he seemed really comfortable with her. Definitely would recommend her!”
“Landon and Addie were great with our dog, Clover! Drop off and pick up were quick and easy and he kept us updated on how she was doing and sent photos throughout her stay. We have already recommended them to local friends and will definitely use them again in the future!”

About: From a young age, I’ve been responsible for caring for animals of many kinds, from hamsters to horses, with dogs always being a big part of my life. This experience has made me attentive, patient, and dependable when caring for dogs. I’m comfortable following routines, reading basic behavior cues, and providing consistent, loving care. I treat every dog as my own and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. I am a full time student during the week and also have a part time job, however I am available for drop in visits during the week, except for Tuesday's after 12:00pm. I can visit up to two times per day per household. My schedule allows me to drop in early in the morning before school and then stop by later in the evenings. I am also available for overnight stays full time. Tuesday’s have a little bit of conflict for, I am at school from 12:00pm to 7:00pm. If an overnight stay goes through a Tuesday someone would need to let your pet out during those hours if necessary I keep each dog’s routine as consistent as possible by closely following feeding, walking, and care instructions. Whether in my home or a client’s, I provide a safe, calm environment with plenty of attention and supervision. I respect my clients’ homes and make sure their dogs feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for at all times.
“Joslyn took great care of our two cats! She was always timely and very communicative! We appreciate her checking in on them while we were out of town. I definitely felt at ease knowing they were in great hands!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. My own dogs, my neighbors have asked me to drop in while they were on vacation, and my parents friends have had me dog and house sit while they were away. I take the time to get to know what the pets need instead of taking a one size fits all approach. I’m available all week, whatever time. I’m not working any other jobs so I’m available whenever pets need it or pet parents want an extra check in or reassurance. I make sure they’re comfortable, whether that’s in a crate or just on a bed, constantly check their food and water, and make sure they’re good and tired before I stop playing with them.
“Dixie is the BEST sitter I've ever had. She stayed with my cat, Simon, for over a week, making sure his every need was met. She also kept me informed about Simon's well-being through texts, photos and videos. She even washed my sheets and towels so I would have less to deal with upon my return home. In short, she was not only a caring sitter but also took steps to make sure my return home would go smoothly, thereby allowing me to spend more time reconnecting with Simon. I will DEFINITELY use Dixie again.”
“Victoria was wonderful! We met her prior to starting her drop in visits and she familiarized herself with walk procedures. Every day I received an update on her visit along with pictures of our happy doggos which made going away easier on my guilt. We came home to two happy pups.”
“It was such a pleasure meeting Stacie, and getting to know her a little, along with hearing about her own love of animals! I so appreciated the photos she sent since my two cats are new to each other and she was totally thorough in caring for them!”
About: I have two cats, Mila and Maxwell, who I absolutely adore, and I also love fostering kittens from work whenever I can! Through my experience in veterinary medicine, I’m comfortable administering medications and caring for pets with specific medical or behavioral needs. Whether your cat is shy, playful, senior, or needs extra medical attention, I’m happy to provide personalized care to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.
“I ended up needing a short-notice, “panic” cat check-in option from Rover before a 10-day trip. Lillie responded and communicated promptly. Her response saved my trip, She did a pre-trip visit to check out my 5 fuzzies, then dealt well with them for several food and water refill and social interaction visits. When I need cat sitting services again, I will be going back to Lillie.”
About: Hey there!! I've been around pets my whole life and absolutely LOVE them. We had a dog (dachshund) growing up as well as other animals like Rabbits and Guinea Pigs! I've had cats and dogs throughout my life as well. My bestie dog was named Sadie (corgi/husky mix) who was 17 when I had to let her go to the rainbow bridge March 2021...it was the hardest thing I've ever had to do 💔 I had her since she was about 1 yr old. She had a pacemaker put in about 2 yrs prior to passing and had a great life but I miss her like crazy. I've been Petsitting a long time but over the passed couple of years it's really helped heal my heart and has truly been a blessing. Most of my clients are from word of mouth over the years but I have this to help others get in touch with me if they need some help! I live in Lake Toxaway but I have jobs anywhere from Highlands, Trillium, Cullowhee, Cashiers, Sapphire, Lake Toxaway to Brevard. I mostly stay at my client's homes but I do bring some dogs to my house if it ends up being a better option. I've done puppy care and senior care as well so that doesn't phase me. I also can do medication or treatments needed. If I'm booked up for in home pet care then I can do drop ins 2x a day for cats 🐱 I can possibly offer that for dogs too but they usually need it 3x a day. So that would all depend on my availability. I work part time caretaking properties/cleaning, and childcare so I'm mostly home! When I do need to leave I'm not gone more then 3-6 hrs, depending on the job. I can travel further if I can move jobs around in my area. I'm very flexible and try to make things work if I can! I currently don’t have a fenced in yard but I will walk around my neighborhood and have a decent sized backyard. I treat your babies like they're my own so they get lots of lovin. Sometimes we go to the State Park too! If they like car rides I'll take them to check my mail or little errands.
About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets, and I truly love every moment of it. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes and ages, including seniors and energetic puppies. I always focus on keeping pets happy, safe, and comfortable, whether it's for daily walks, playtime, or overnight stays. You can count on me to treat your pet like my own! As a college student, my schedule is flexible between classes. I can do late mornings, midday check-ins, and early evenings, with open weekends for extended care or overnights. Your pet's routine comes first. I care for pets in their own homes so they can stay in a familiar and comfortable environment. I always follow your instructions carefully and keep your pet's routine consistent. Whether it's walks, playtime, or feeding, I make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you're away.
“Jesse did a great job first time with Tag, who is an anxious dog. Jesse is professional and friendly. He is very reassuring and took good care of Tag. we will definitely have Jesse take care of Tag again!”
About: I have only started caring for cats in 2023, however, given that my love for animals is unmatched— I have never had any cat owners complain about my care for their kitties! I will love them just as my own. I also have experience issuing medication for cats and kittens as well.
“Kristi was great! She communicated with me, sent pictures and seem to positively relate to our babies. We have old cats and one requires medication twice a day. Some sitters we have had were not always able to give her the medication. Betsy let her do it without too much trouble.”
About: I fostered a cat in college. After he went to his forever home, there was a Smudge-sized hole in my heart (Smudge was my foster cat). So what did I do? I went out and got two kittens! Ivy and Poppy are my prides and joy.

“We love Licia and Pete and are SO GRATEFUL to have such a pup-loving couple to hand our precious Sachie off to when we go rafting. Wish we could tip more, but River only allows so much. I always get a check in call from Licia to confirm all details early on (so I don’t have to initiate the call!) and our little baby comes back super happy and well-taken care of. Thank you sooo much for another great rafting trip! We appreciate you!!!”
About: I bring a lifetime of hands, on experience and a naturally calm presence. I’ve cared for dogs and cats at every stage of life, from puppies and kittens to seniors, starting with volunteering at a veterinary hospital at age 12. I’m especially good at reading animals and helping them feel at ease in a new environment. I work from home, and pet care is part of my everyday routine. Being around animals, caring for them, and paying attention to their needs is second nature to me. The best part of my day is dog walks and cuddles. I focus on helping pets feel comfortable and secure. I stick closely to what they’re familiar with and take my cues from the animal. 💛
“Julia and her husband and her father were FANTASTIC!!!! They are so kind and Pepper had the best time playing with them and their pup Sara Mae. We did not worry a bit about her while we were gone because we knew she was well taken care of. We will absolutely ask Julia to help with Pepper again!”
About: Hi everyone! ❤️ I have hands-on experience caring for pets through raising my own and helping family and friends with theirs. I’ve always been around animals and truly enjoy caring for them. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, providing fresh water, walks, playtime, basic grooming, and cleaning up after pets. I pay close attention to animal behavior and safety, and I understand how important it is to keep pets on their routine so they feel comfortable while their owners are away. Pet care fits into my routine on weekends, since I work during the week. I’m available Saturdays and Sundays for dog walking and drop-in visits, with flexible timing throughout the day. ✨ If you’re away or have plans during the weekend, I’ll be there to make sure your pet is cared for and comfortable. I make sure each pet gets plenty of attention, care, and a calm, unhurried visit every time. ✨ When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and stress-free. ✨ For drop-in visits, I provide potty breaks, fresh water, feeding (if needed), and one-on-one attention with playtime and affection. I also make sure your home is left just as I found it. 🐾 For dog walking, I focus on safe, enjoyable walks at your dog’s pace, making sure they get exercise while staying comfortable and secure. I always send updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. 💛

About: I got my dog when I was 13 and she was the best thing that happened to me. She was the most loving and caring dog I ever met but lost her to a serious illness and I just love to give out my heart to animals and would love to spend some time with your animals. I am a stay at home mom and the moment. Son is five and in kindergarten and he loves animals just as much as I do but because I’m not completely over losing my dog I haven’t been able to get him a dog for himself. I’m home and have a dog park right now the road from me so keeping dogs a breeze. I always have an eye on the animals. Never feed food other then the kind given. Nothing in the rooms that they would stay in that could hurt them.

About: Since a little girl, there has always been dogs inside or outside of the house. As of right now, I have six dogs all different sizes, ages, and personalities. Therefore, I am very comfortable handling anything from energetic puppies to senior pups who need a gentler space. I understand how to manage multiple dogs at once and read their body language to make sure each one gets the care they need. Because of that, I am patient, adaptable, and used to real life situations. I treat every animal like they are my own regardless of where I am (why I have 6 lol), and make sure they feel safe and loved. I am currently a freshman in college who is fully online. Therefore, I have plenty of time on my hands to play with your pups and get what they need! During the summer time, I will be doing this full time as I will be on break. I have a large yard with many pups yours can play with. If needed, I can easily crate your dog if that is what you prefer, however, all dogs are welcome on the furniture here. I also have a quieter space for the older, wanting to sleep dogs🙂

About: I’ve had lifelong experience caring for pets of my own and have spent the past 6 years pet sitting for others. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly treat every pet in my care like family. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels, as well as cats and other small pets. From playful puppies to senior pets who need a gentler pace, I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s unique routine and needs. I’m confident with: • Feeding schedules and special diets • Daily walks and exercise • Basic medication administration • Maintaining routines and house rules • Sending regular photo and video updates My goal is always to provide loving, reliable care so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. I build my schedule around the pets I’m caring for to ensure they receive consistent attention, exercise, and companionship. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening feedings, I prioritize maintaining each pet’s normal routine. I make time every day for walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and lots of affection. I’m very mindful about not overbooking so that each pet gets the focused care and attention they deserve. Because animals have always been a big part of my life, caring for them doesn’t feel like an extra task — it’s something I genuinely enjoy and plan my week around. When caring for pets in their own home, my top priority is keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special preferences to ensure consistency and comfort. I provide: • Fresh food and water at each visit • Clean litter boxes or yard clean-up as needed • Walks and exercise based on your pet’s energy level • Playtime, enrichment, and companionship • Plenty of affection (if they enjoy it!) • Detailed updates with photos after each visit I also treat every client’s home with the utmost respect — keeping things tidy, secure, and exactly as you left them. My goal is for you to return to a happy pet and a well-cared-for home.
About: I have been a pet lover since birth. Throughout my life, I had lived with dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, snakes and even a pet skunk. I have been fortunate enough to have had the opportunity to assist and care for injured and rehabilitated raptors, spent several years as a foster mom for orphaned bats, and assisted in researching black bears. I currently live with three sweetie pie pups, a 9 and 6 year old golden retrievers, Deal and Bear and a 7 year old mixed rescue named Carly. I am available to come to your home and walk, run, feed, water, cuddle, and play with your animal(s). Your pets will love me and I will love them back. I am currently working from my home, so I have plenty of availability for whatever and whenever you need someone to help out with your home and pets. I will keep a watchful eye out for your animals and send frequent photos and updates to you while your babies are under my care.
“Amazing! That's one word to sum up Kristi's visits with my sweet beagle/ lab mix. She was on time, followed through with my instructions, and very attentive to my fur baby. He liked her immediately upon arrival and trusted her. Kristi is very good at what she does and I'm definitely using her again and again! ❤️ 🐕 🦴”
About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets, and I truly love every moment of it. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes and ages, including seniors and energetic puppies. I always focus on keeping pets happy, safe, and comfortable, whether it's for daily walks, playtime, or overnight stays. You can count on me to treat your pet like my own! As a college student, my schedule is flexible between classes. I can do late mornings, midday check-ins, and early evenings, with open weekends for extended care or overnights. Your pet's routine comes first. I care for pets in their own homes so they can stay in a familiar and comfortable environment. I always follow your instructions carefully and keep your pet's routine consistent. Whether it's walks, playtime, or feeding, I make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you're away.
“Lillie has been great working with our new dog Archie. She is very patient and gives great updates, which is very helpful when trying to figure out what behaviors we need to work on with him.”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and love taking care of them. Started to learn to train puppies about a year ago I’m still in the process of learning more. I currently have no job so I have an open availability. Dogs are not allowed at the house I stay at due to multiple animals already living there. I care for animals the best I know how unless given special instructions by the pet owner then I will go by those instructions given.

About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and small pets. I have an undying passion and love for animals of all ages, shapes, and sizes. I would call myself a ‘dog whisperer.’ All of my friends find it amazing that I love dogs as much as I do.Being that I also may have a bit of OCD when it comes to cleanliness— your home will not only be cared for but will be spotless upon your return! If there are plants in the home as well, I can also make sure that those get watered and cared for as needed. It’s an understatement to say I am attentive to detail. I am currently a full time student at Clemson University with a hybrid schedule and am available(flexible) on Mondays and Wednesdays for drop in visits and dog walking. I live in a house with a fully fenced in backyard. I can host no more than 2 other dogs at a time. Myself and my partner own 2 dogs. An incredibly sweet and gently Doberman and a spunky Chiweenie!
About: I love animals, especially dogs. I've taken care of dogs for friends and family for over 20 years. I am a fur mama to 2 yorkie's. One of them is a diabetic and requires daily shots. I can take care of any special needs that your pets require. I'm great with all dogs, they're my favorite kind of people.. I work full time Monday-Thursday 8-5. I'm available after 5 and then anything Fri-Sunday. I can run to your home to walk on my lunch if its in the Greenville or Simpsonville area. I will do what the owner needs me to do: walk on leash, stay in fence yard, crate in kennel. My two yorkies are trained. One walks on leash while other one stays by my side when outside.
“Riley did such an amazing job! She went above and beyond for my puppy. She took him to get a pup cup and spent all day with him when I only needed two hours. She sent many pictures and communicated very well! will definitely be using her in the future!”

“This is our second time leaving our dog with Sylvie and will definitely continue in the future. She took great care of our dog and sent us pictures every day. I would highly recommend her.”
“Tara was great with Trapper. She was super flexible and easy to work with and sent several pics so we knew he was having fun and being well taken care of. We weren’t sure if he’d be ok playing with her dogs, but they were super sweet and immediately accepted him as part of the group. He had a blast while we were away.”
“I highly recommend Kimi! My dog Maisie stayed with her family for two nights. She gave me frequent updates and sent pictures, which was appreciated and put me at ease knowing Maisie was happy and getting regular walks. Thanks so much and we look forward to booking with Kimi again soon :)”

About: As a lifelong dog lover and current online college student, I offer a highly flexible, work-from-home schedule that ensures your pet will have constant supervision, regular bathroom breaks, and company throughout the day. What sets me apart is my ability to adapt to your pet's specific stage of life; I am fully equipped to handle the high-energy demands, potty training, and crate routines of young puppies, but I'm equally patient and observant when it comes to the quiet environments and precise medication schedules required by senior dogs. Ultimately, I focus on routine consistency, molding my daily schedule entirely around your dog’s normal habits to keep their anxiety low and make them feel right at home. I work from home and stay around town, so caring for your fur-babies is no trouble at all! If they do well with car rides, I am more than happy to bring them along to run any errands or to the ball fields! I have a large yard, plenty of room inside, two sweet and playful dogs to keep them company, and a 6 year old boy who loves puppy cuddles and all the play time he can get!
About: I grew up on a farm caring for all types of animals. I’ve always had to make sure all of them were feed and water. I’ve dog sit for family friends before while they went out of town and i had to go to their house and feed, water them, take them out to play and use the bathroom, gave them baths if they need them. I took care and dog sit all kinds of animals and sizes, from puppies to older dogs, and even cats too, all up to farm animals. I’m a stay at home mom to a 2 year old. I have a 3 year old male dog that’s unaltered. I’m available anytime to dog sit or board. I have a house with a nice little yard for your fur babies to run and play! I’m always going outside every 2-3 hours almost to walk my dog. Of course I will walk your dog first because I know my dog can hold it until afterwards
“Pamela was great to my little Henry! This was Henry's first experience with a sitter and it was for 5 nights! My family and I were so nervous to see how Henry would adjust to a new environment. Pamela's home was very clean and welcoming. Her communication was great and her detailed daily updates and pictures really put us at ease and made us feel confident that he was adjusting well. Henry looked so relaxed and easy going in the pictures. I am so happy to have found Pamela and if we need a sitter in the future I would definitely book with her again!”
“This was the first time my girl stayed away from home and with someone that was not family! I am very happy with my experience. Would recommend to others and use again myself! Communication superb!”
“Summer was great -- so reliable and responsive! We were visiting relatives for a football game at Clemson and we had our dog in tow. Summer watched our dog for the whole afternoon and was very understanding about the late evening pick up, given how long night football games can go. Summer sent photos and took great care of our guy, and he seemed really comfortable with her. Definitely would recommend her!”
“Landon and Addie were great with our dog, Clover! Drop off and pick up were quick and easy and he kept us updated on how she was doing and sent photos throughout her stay. We have already recommended them to local friends and will definitely use them again in the future!”
“Zoe did a great job looking after Lew while I was out of town! She kept me updated and sent lots of pictures! She even gave me a report card of Lew’s behavior during his stay. I will definitely rebook with Zoe again!”
“Jen was very flexible and accommodating regarding our drop-off and pickup times; most importantly, she was so warm and loving toward our pup! He had a great time playing with her other dogs and snuggling up with the family. We felt very good about leaving him in her care, and will be back next time we have the chance to be in Highlands!”
“I received a daily pic of Maddie and could tell that she was happy. It was obvious that she was loved on while we were away on vacation. I will definitely use Hannah Michelle again.”
“Very friendly family and I could tell my dog was happy there when I picked her up. Ashleigh sent photos and updates every few days which was much appreciated. I will definitely use them again when I need a sitter!”
