Personalized care for your dog or cat - Murray
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Murray
“Our baby was well taken care of and had the best time with her stay. I received so many photographs and daily updates. I wasn’t worried about our sweet girl while we were away because she looked like she was having the time of her life!”
“Amazing experience, extremely communicative and easy to work with could not have asked for a better sitter. My dogs were very happy upon pick up and my dogs love playing with her puppy.”
“Ren always has a great time at Celia's. We feel so comfortable leaving her in such great care. It is such a relief when we go on vacation and know she will have a great time.”
“We left our family's Doodles with Zac for our family Thanksgiving trip. He was easy to work with, even with adjustments that had to be made. He provided updates on dogs, including pictures, and responded quickly to any inquiries. The dogs came back happy and dirty because they had a chance to stay outside and play a lot, which we loved. Thanks, Zac, for making our holiday relaxing and worry-free, especially because the dogs were safe.”
“Dear Ms Karen, Thank you for taking such good care of me while my parents were out of town. I was not expecting my own doggie vacay but I did have a really good time! I enjoyed our walks and especially my relax time just hanging with you. I will tell my parents how good of time we had so I can come see you again soon! Love, Ginseng”
“Sebastian is the absolute best! I would give him 10 stars if I could. He was responsive from booking til pick-up. He consistently updated me and sent many pictures of my baby, Caesar. Caesar has daily topical medicine that must be administered and Sebastian had no problem applying it for me. I truly believe Caesar felt like he was at home while in Sebastian’s care. I will absolutely be using his services again.”
“Margie was excellent with both my dogs. She made me feel very comfortable from the beginning and provided a safe and caring environment for my fur babies. I will definitely recommend Margie to anyone who asks and will be using her again!”
“Lexi was amazing, she took such great care of Belle and sent the best pics and videos while we were away. Belle had the best time, she wasn't ready to come home when I got there to pick her up.”
“This is our second time staying with Jud and Nicole, and they are absolutely AMAZING! They are such patient, friendly, dog-loving people, and your dog will no doubt have a vacation of their own! My dog is very hyper, and they handle her so well, and always send lots of pictures and updates. Stay with them if you can!!!!”
“Cory and his family are very attentive when caring for our pup. After finding him on Rover, it’s now easy to go away for an overnight or weeklong trip. We never have to worry if our pup is lonely or having a great time. Cory always sends photo updates on how things are going. Looking forward to booking Cory’s services again.”
“Gina was excellent with my dog Chance. She was flexible with allowing me to drop them off an hour early and pick them up an hour late with no issues. She sent me daily updates and pics as well, which was great! I would definitely rebook with her anytime.”
“Jenny took great care of my old puppy. She gave updates a few times a day with pictures, gave him his medicine 3 times a day and redressed a small injury on his paw. Thank you!”
“Our Louis is a 5-month old yorkiepoo, weighs 6 pounds, and has never stayed with anyone other than family. We were apprehensive about leaving him with non-family for 5 days while we cruised but did not have a choice. We searched Rover, chatted with a few people, found Nontombe and the end result is that we (and apparently Louis) completely adore Nontombe. Nontombe sent us videos and pictures and it was clear to see Louis was right at home with someone who loved on him and played with him. We were also worried about how Louis would get along with the other dogs being cared for but Nontombe outlined her plan to us to introduce Louis and what would happen if the dogs did not get along and the videos and pictures of Louis and the other dogs made us feel even more comfortable. It was also clear to us that Nontombe loves animals and is great with them. We recommend her for the care of your young and older fur babies and personally, we won’t use anyone else.”
About: Ever since I was a child I have had a passion for taking care of animals: From fostering dogs as a child, getting my first job in a boarding facility, and 5 years as a veterinary technician. With my depth of experience from the veterinary field I can administer medication, provide care to those with special needs, and ensure a safe and healthy environment while providing love and affection. I work entirely from home and am available at all times of the day. I never would leave any dog unattended except for short periods, in which they would be safely crated. I take the utmost care to provide a safe and healthy environment for all pets including my own. I am meticulous in keeping our home clean, preventing any potential hazards of being in reach of animals, and ensuring there is clean water available at all times. At the same time, I want every guest to feel at home, and believe in animals having access to as much space as possible, feeling comfortable to sleep on the furniture and explore the house while supervised.
“Kathy was terrific with our pit bull. He's super friendly with people, but sometimes needs a minute to warm up to dogs. Kathy did a wonderful job letting him get adjusted to her animals. He made great friends, got tons of playtime, and lots of love! She also sent us daily texts with pics and videos. Would absolutely board with Kathy again.”
“Fantastic environment for King as he enjoys himself and feels like home. They really take care of your pets and I will continue to use them in the future.”
“Sally's kept Maci before and we've been more than pleased with how she loves on our sweet girl and keeps us updated with messages and photos every day. But this last time was a little more challenging (for us anyway) as this was the first time we'd left Maci overnight since her recently diagnosed medical issue. Sally was so understanding and took our concerns to heart. As always, it is such a relief to know how well-loved and cared for Maci is with Sally. ❤️”
“Our fur baby, Lena, had an awesome week with Carol! Carol did a wonderful job taking care of Lena and keeping us posted throughout the week with status updates and pictures. Carol treated Lena like she was her own providing love, exercise, and stable routine for her. I highly recommend Carol to care for your pets.”
“Yolanda was wonderful! Took exceptional care of our bashful senior pup. Great at communication and flexibility, also offers grooming options, which was fabulous to know, since we dont have a groomer locally :) fully recommend, and we will use her again!”

He has separation anxiety, but he was happy to stay with Margie, and when we returned to pick him up, he was glad to see us but was running back to Margie as well, clearly content to be with her too.

It would help us both out in getting some much needed exercise!

“Needing a pet sitter for my fur baby while I was visiting my daughter at the University of South Carolina- only for a few hours to watch the basketball game. I didn’t want to leave her in the hotel with all the doors slamming. I was so pleased and thankful to find Gina on Rover- who responded immediately and said that she could watch my Nola. Gina gave me lots of pictures during the visit and made me feel safe and comfortable! I knew she was in good hands! 🐾💕 Would definitely recommend and use again! 5 out of 5 🌟”
“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.”

My mission is to make life easier for pet owners while keeping their furry companions happy, healthy, and safe. I’d be honored to be part of your dog’s care team! I work from home, so your pet will always have someone nearby to look after them. I’m available throughout the day to check in, take them for walks, and make sure they’re well-fed and comfortable. Your pet’s routine and well-being are my top priorities Safety and fun go hand in hand here.I keep a close eye on pets to make sure they’re not playing too rough, eating something they shouldn’t, or trying to escape.

About: Dogs are just a joy to have around; and when dog sitting, there is joy and love in the air, and who doesn't want to feel that? Gental love, care, and patience are key factors in dog sitting, no matter the dog. Recently, my family made the decision for my grandmother to be cared for inside of our home. This allows me to have an open schedule for around the clock care for dogs. My home is a great environment for dogs, because we obtain a bin of dog toys that dogs can select from, and a (2 -acre, fenced) backyard for outside time, which includes using the restroom, and overall running around and playing.
About: I’m a caring and responsible pet owner, and I share my home with my husband, our three kids, and our 11-year-old Golden Retriever, Karma. She’s truly part of our family, and caring for her over the years has made me even more patient, attentive, and nurturing—qualities I bring into how I care for every dog. I’ve always had dogs growing up, and they’ve never been “just pets” to me—they’re family. I treat every dog with that same level of love, respect, and attention, and I would care for your dog just as I do my own. In addition to my personal experience, I’ve helped neighbors by watching their dogs during vacations and stopping in for visits when they have long workdays. I’m comfortable with daily routines, feeding schedules, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and cared for while you’re away. I love walking dogs regularly and believe it’s important for both their physical and mental well-being. Whether your dog enjoys long walks or prefers time in a fenced yard, I’m happy to follow their usual routine to keep them comfortable and happy. I’m currently a certified teacher between positions, which gives me extra flexibility and time to dedicate to your furry family members—something I truly enjoy. I look forward to meeting you and your pets soon! I’m a certified teacher between positions, which gives me extra flexibility and I'm currently available full-time to dedicate to your furry family members. I have a fenced-in yard at my home where dogs can safely play and relax, and I also enjoy taking walks around my neighborhood for extra exercise and enrichment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m happy to follow their usual routine—whether that means going for walks or letting them out in a fenced yard. My goal is to keep your pet comfortable, happy, and cared for in the way they’re used to.

About: I love animals and have experience caring for dogs, cats, birds, reptiles and fish.

I do have dogs but the nice things is I have several floors. Cats can have their own area away from my dogs ( in case they are not a match) and dogs have their own floor. I have an area of property and live in a walkable neighborhood.

I am used to dogs that are escape artists, so your dogs will. always be safe and secure with me. I can easily read a dogs body language so nothing is unexpected.

I'm currently working from home, so I will have plenty of time to play with babies and give them all the love they need. I am available weekdays, weekends, evenings and Holidays. I live on 10 acres of land that has about a 50x50 fenced in yard for the dogs to run and play. I also have lots of space to walk and play with them. I live on a dirt road with very little traffic, so your babies are safe and will have lots of room and fun!!! When your babies are in the house, they are able to do just as you let them do at home. I do separate everyone when they are eating (that way there is no one eating someone else's food. Everyone comes in and sleeps at night. I also have an ADT system on my home so if I am out they are safely put in the house behind locked doors with an alarm system on. When they are outside, I have a camera on the fenced where the pups can be watched from my phone.

“Amazing experience, extremely communicative and easy to work with could not have asked for a better sitter. My dogs were very happy upon pick up and my dogs love playing with her puppy.”
“We left our family's Doodles with Zac for our family Thanksgiving trip. He was easy to work with, even with adjustments that had to be made. He provided updates on dogs, including pictures, and responded quickly to any inquiries. The dogs came back happy and dirty because they had a chance to stay outside and play a lot, which we loved. Thanks, Zac, for making our holiday relaxing and worry-free, especially because the dogs were safe.”
“Sebastian is the absolute best! I would give him 10 stars if I could. He was responsive from booking til pick-up. He consistently updated me and sent many pictures of my baby, Caesar. Caesar has daily topical medicine that must be administered and Sebastian had no problem applying it for me. I truly believe Caesar felt like he was at home while in Sebastian’s care. I will absolutely be using his services again.”
“Lexi was amazing, she took such great care of Belle and sent the best pics and videos while we were away. Belle had the best time, she wasn't ready to come home when I got there to pick her up.”
“Cory and his family are very attentive when caring for our pup. After finding him on Rover, it’s now easy to go away for an overnight or weeklong trip. We never have to worry if our pup is lonely or having a great time. Cory always sends photo updates on how things are going. Looking forward to booking Cory’s services again.”
“Gina was excellent with my dog Chance. She was flexible with allowing me to drop them off an hour early and pick them up an hour late with no issues. She sent me daily updates and pics as well, which was great! I would definitely rebook with her anytime.”
“Jenny took great care of my old puppy. She gave updates a few times a day with pictures, gave him his medicine 3 times a day and redressed a small injury on his paw. Thank you!”
“Our Louis is a 5-month old yorkiepoo, weighs 6 pounds, and has never stayed with anyone other than family. We were apprehensive about leaving him with non-family for 5 days while we cruised but did not have a choice. We searched Rover, chatted with a few people, found Nontombe and the end result is that we (and apparently Louis) completely adore Nontombe. Nontombe sent us videos and pictures and it was clear to see Louis was right at home with someone who loved on him and played with him. We were also worried about how Louis would get along with the other dogs being cared for but Nontombe outlined her plan to us to introduce Louis and what would happen if the dogs did not get along and the videos and pictures of Louis and the other dogs made us feel even more comfortable. It was also clear to us that Nontombe loves animals and is great with them. We recommend her for the care of your young and older fur babies and personally, we won’t use anyone else.”
About: Ever since I was a child I have had a passion for taking care of animals: From fostering dogs as a child, getting my first job in a boarding facility, and 5 years as a veterinary technician. With my depth of experience from the veterinary field I can administer medication, provide care to those with special needs, and ensure a safe and healthy environment while providing love and affection. I work entirely from home and am available at all times of the day. I never would leave any dog unattended except for short periods, in which they would be safely crated. I take the utmost care to provide a safe and healthy environment for all pets including my own. I am meticulous in keeping our home clean, preventing any potential hazards of being in reach of animals, and ensuring there is clean water available at all times. At the same time, I want every guest to feel at home, and believe in animals having access to as much space as possible, feeling comfortable to sleep on the furniture and explore the house while supervised.
“Kathy was terrific with our pit bull. He's super friendly with people, but sometimes needs a minute to warm up to dogs. Kathy did a wonderful job letting him get adjusted to her animals. He made great friends, got tons of playtime, and lots of love! She also sent us daily texts with pics and videos. Would absolutely board with Kathy again.”
“Fantastic environment for King as he enjoys himself and feels like home. They really take care of your pets and I will continue to use them in the future.”
“Sally's kept Maci before and we've been more than pleased with how she loves on our sweet girl and keeps us updated with messages and photos every day. But this last time was a little more challenging (for us anyway) as this was the first time we'd left Maci overnight since her recently diagnosed medical issue. Sally was so understanding and took our concerns to heart. As always, it is such a relief to know how well-loved and cared for Maci is with Sally. ❤️”
“Yolanda was wonderful! Took exceptional care of our bashful senior pup. Great at communication and flexibility, also offers grooming options, which was fabulous to know, since we dont have a groomer locally :) fully recommend, and we will use her again!”
“Aiko is the best! Sometimes it can be hard for my puppy to get adjusted to someone new, but she felt at home with Aiko pretty quickly! When I picked her up the first time, she was content and well-rested. I really appreciate Aiko's communication with updates and pictures throughout her stay. Your pet is in great hands if you’re blessed to be able to book with her!”
“Walle has such a wonderful time with Whitney and Ryan! Once he realized where we were going he was so excited! I hate to leave him but it’s made way easier know he is well looked after”
“Assatta was very accommodating. She was very responsive interactive with our Demi! A very loving home and we felt at ease knowing Demi was in good hands. She sent pictures and kept us updated. I will be booking her every time she is available!”
