“Our terrier pup Merry had a great time during her stay with Joe and Celeste. She loved playing with Demmi and Chewy. They have a nice big back yard which she loved. We highly recommend Joe and Celeste.”

“No words can express how grateful we are to Kally! How can I start, my baby was never before far from us, we spoiled him way to much, is our only furry baby, and never before he has been around nobody else than us, so imagine how worries we were, we leave him feeling so sad and guilty but Thanks to Kally we actually manage to enjoy our vacations, with constantly communications and pictures of my babies, and for our surprise he seems very happy with her LOL. Since now on, she becomes officially our baby’s pets sitter! Thanks so much for everything Kally! May the lord bless you! I give you 5 starts because is no more starts available Lol”

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember! Growing up, I was surrounded by all kinds of pets—from dogs and cats to hamsters and rats—and I’ve always loved caring for animals. I’ve also had the opportunity to foster kittens and gain hands-on experience with a variety of pets. My mom was a veterinary technician for 30 years, so I grew up learning a lot about animal care, behavior, and what it means to keep pets happy and healthy. At 18, I started my own pet-sitting business back home in Connecticut. When I moved out of state, I left the business behind, but I’ve always wanted to get back into pet sitting—and now feels like the perfect time! I currently have two cats and two ball pythons of my own. My schedule is also very flexible right now, which means I’m able to give your pets plenty of time, attention, and care. My time spent with your pets will involve lots of love and cuddles, walks and playtime, as well as treats as appropriate. I also have experience with administering medications to pets, so if this is something you need assistance with just let me know! I know how much our pets mean to us, and I’ll treat yours like they’re part of my own family. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry (or scaly!) family members! 🐾 I'm currently in between jobs and looking for something part-time so I have plenty of time to care for your babies, whether that be drop-ins or boarding. If needed, I have a dog crate at home for the safety of your pet while I am not at home. I have a 3 bedroom home in a peaceful community in Conway.

“Luciana and C V. watched our 5 year old lab while we were out on the country for 9 nights and we’re so grateful for what good care they took of him while we were gone. They have watched Remi many times before and we will be using them in the future again!”

“If you’re considering hiring Brianna for pet care, just go for it :)! She is trustworthy, reliable, flexible, and a very fast communicator. Our Lily had a blast with her dog Kita :)! We were afraid she wouldn’t want to go home with us lol. Brianna gave us extra peace of mind with all of the pictures and updates she sent. Plus, knowing she had vet tech xp made us feel safe leaving Lily behind after her recent surgery. She was returned to us super happy, healthy, and exhausted :). We hope Brianna ywill be able to watch her again next time! (THANK YOU AGAIN!!)”

About: Your dog deserves to have fun, feel loved, and be part of the adventure! I’ve always had a huge love for dogs, and I truly believe they’re family. My motto is “They only have one life too, so bring them along!” I love taking pups on walks, adventures, and everyday outings whenever possible, while making sure they get plenty of cuddles, playtime, attention, and love. When you book with me, you’re not just getting a sitter—you’re getting someone who will genuinely care about your dog and treat them like they’re my own. I want you to be able to relax and enjoy your time away knowing your pup is happy, safe, comfortable, and in loving hands. If you’re looking for someone who will love your dog, spoil them a little, keep them active, and give them the attention they deserve, I’d love to meet your pup! Let’s make their next stay an adventure they’ll love! I am currently working from home so I will be available to tend to them all day long. I am also available on the weekends. I have a large fenced in backyard with two friendly dogs, an eight-year-old, female Boston terrier. and a four year-old, female German shorthair pointer. My dogs have full range of the house and are allowed on furniture. I can also crate your dog if you feel more comfortable with that.

“Very friendly. Took great care of our dog. Sent pictures of him enjoying himself. Highly recommend.”

“My dog's first time with Melissa. She was eager to meet her and the family. Melissa gave us daily pictures and updates. My dog came home and has energy to play and walk and have fun. Unlike other kennel stays in the past, she just laid around for days. I am so very thankful to Rover and Melissa and highly recommend both!!”

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats alike for the past eight years. I have worked with senior dogs along with puppies to ensure proper daily care. I currently work from home full time, with the flexibility to move around during the day. Because of this i am looking to add pet sitting as a consistent part of my week. I have a home with more than enough space inside and out for your pets comfort. We have one dog, though we keep two gates up to keep the fur babies separate to ease any anxiety or stress.

About: I’m also a dedicated cat lover and understand that cats often do best when they can stay in their own familiar environment. I’m happy to provide calm, attentive care that respects each cat’s unique personality—whether they’re playful and social or more independent. During visits I can help with: • Feeding and fresh water • Litter box cleaning • Playtime and enrichment • Medication if needed • Lots of affection (only if your cat wants it!) I know many cats take time to warm up to new people, so I approach them gently and patiently to build trust. My goal is to keep their routine consistent and their stress low while you’re away. I’m also happy to send photo updates and messages so you know your cat is safe, comfortable, and cared for. Your cat will receive the same level of respect, patience, and loving care as any member of the family. 🐾

“Ann was easy to communicate with and took great care of our pup. We would definitely use her services again!”

“Left our fur baby with Skyla while we were visiting from out of town. Skyla was great and loving! She made Luna feel comfortable and provided her with lots of activities and play time. She kept us informed throughout the day which made us feel at ease. So thankful we were able to count on her to watched Luna while we vacationed!”

“Gus was very well taken care of. Thank you. We will be returning”

“Digo loves being at daycare! Janet keeps him active and assures that he is socializing with other dogs. She takes him outside often and keeps him inside when weather is not conducive. She introduced him to kiddie pool and she reinforces training including housebreaking and simple commands such as “sit”. Janet is also very flexible with schedule - I’m a nurse and my hours are very early and long! We are very fortunate to have found Janet!”

Sondra G.

“My boyfriend and I went to myrtle beach for a little weekend get away before we started up college again. We decided to take our dog, haezel with us, because she’d never been on a trio or saw the beach before. Sunday was our last day to finish up our plans before we had to leave, so we looked for a sitter. I searched and searched and searched for hours, until we ran into this sweet lady. We had been looking for a sitter since 9am, at this point it was 2pm and Ms.Debra was the most amazing life saver. She met us at a half way point and she was able to keep haezel for the rest of the day. She was constantly messaging me, letting me know how haezel was doing while we were away and even sending picture updates. That was the first time I’d ever left my dog for a long period of time, and Ms.Debrs definitely helped sooth my anxiety.”

“Shadellah was excellent with my 1 year old pup. She watched her for close to 8 hrs and my dog seemed to have a great time! Would definitely use her again”

Tarik C.

“Very happy with Elvera’s service. I highly recommend.”

“Unfortunately, it did not work out for my dog to stay with Melissa but she was very helpful in planning the doggie daycare. I plan to be back.”

About: My entire life people have referred to me as "the animal lover". I have helped care for our family pets since I was 6 years old. My daily and weekly chores throughout my life have been to feed, groom and bath our dogs. One of the biggest blessings I have found in life is animal rescue. I grew up with rescue dogs, horses and cats. Being able to help those animals overcome their fear of humans has been so rewarding. For the past 11 years my mom has turned to me for help in training her pack of fur-babies to help her gain a more cohesive, fun and relaxing environment with her animals. Animals are my passion in life, they are a big part of who I am today, and I want to offer them the best possible care. I always find it difficult to leave our animals, so I want to offer a safe and reliable option for other animal lovers to know their babies are being cared for in a responsible and loving way. I run a small business out of my house (part-time), so I am available to play with your pets any time of day, throughout the week! I can flex my schedule to fit your pets needs (within reason). I have a solid 4.5 foot fenced yard for your fur-babies enjoyment. They will be let out to play in the yard and be able to spend time with me in the house. They will be crated when they are unsupervised.

About: I am a certified, licensed, and insured dog trainer and the owner of Chaos To Clarity K9. I work with dogs and their families on obedience, leash skills, everyday manners, and behavior challenges. Many of the dogs I help are everyday family dogs who need guidance with things like pulling on leash, barking, jumping, reactivity, or learning how to settle in the home. I also enjoy working with puppies and helping owners build strong foundations early through clear communication and consistency. I have a strong interest in behavior modification, especially helping dogs work through fear, stress, and reactivity at a pace that keeps them comfortable and learning. My husband is a Registered Veterinary Technician (RVT) and a combat veteran and former military police K9 handler who trained civilian police dogs. Because of his veterinary background, I’m also able to consult with him when behavior questions may have a possible medical component, which can sometimes play a role in behavior. I also understand that dogs live in real families with real challenges. I live with multiple sclerosis and am raising an autistic four-year-old, so I appreciate how important it is for training to be practical, realistic, and supportive of the household environment. My goal is always to help create calmer, safer, and more enjoyable relationships between dogs and the people who love them. One thing that’s very important to me is paying attention to canine body language and stress signals. Dogs communicate constantly through subtle changes in posture, facial expression, and movement, and recognizing those signals early can prevent many behavior problems from escalating. During training, I help owners learn how to recognize what their dog is communicating so they can respond in a way that builds trust, confidence, and better behavior over time. Dog training is part of my regular weekly routine, and I intentionally keep my schedule structured so each client receives focused attention. My current training availability is: • Tuesday: 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM • Wednesday: 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM • Thursday: 9:00 AM – 8:00 PM • Saturday: 10:00 AM – 8:00 PM • Sunday: Afternoon appointments available by request Closed: Monday and Friday Because each dog and family has unique needs, I limit the number of training sessions I take each week so I can provide thoughtful, individualized guidance and follow-up support between sessions. Safety, trust, and clear communication are always my top priorities when working with dogs and their families. I pay close attention to canine body language and stress signals to make sure dogs remain comfortable and able to learn during training. Training sessions focus on creating a calm, structured environment where both the dog and owner can succeed. I work at the dog’s pace and help owners understand what their dog is communicating so they can respond clearly and confidently. My goal is to create training plans that are safe, practical, and sustainable for everyday life, helping dogs feel more secure while helping owners feel supported throughout the process.

About: I am a mom and I work from home so am able to offer a lot of extra attention. I have been in business doing Rover for 6 years and have cared for animals through other services prior to that. I have experience in taking care of all animals (even equine) and can make sure to cater to your fur baby’s needs. Experience includes Medication, supplements, diet, handicap, or food and allergy needs. We are huge dog (animal) lovers, and will make sure your baby feels like a member of the family during their stay. They will gets plenty of walks and exercise as well as lots of cuddles and love! I keep in regular contact for peace of mind with daily updates and photos. If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to contact me. I work from home so I have the ability to offer extra care and attention. Our day will consist of play time, walks, and cuddles. Whatever schedule you have we try to stick to so it’s something familiar to your baby. I have a large yard. I have no rules about furniture so often times they get up and snuggle with the kids at night or wherever they are comfortable. We make sure they have walks and plenty of playtime too. I work from home so sticking to a schedule and giving extra attention is not an issue.

“Was so happy to have found Cyrus for watching my dog since I have just moved from NY to SC and don’t know anybody to watch him or have time to ask for any recommendations. He was great with my pup and my city dog got to walk with another dog and be surrounded by chickens, ducks snd turkeys 😃”

“Janet watched both my Chihuahuas twice this summer and took excellent care of them. Would definitely recommend her! She has a very nice set up for small dogs.”

“Alyssa was wonderful! Her care, kindness and understanding of the needs of our boy Keanu was so appreciated. She was so patient and caring when Keanu and the other pups were getting to know each other for the first time. We will definitely be using Alyssa’s services again. Thank you Alyssa!!”

About: Since childhood I've had animals. I profoundly love dogs and cats. I have volunteered at rescues and shelters in the past. I currently work for a local veterinary clinic. I'm committed to providing safe, excellent care for your furbabies! I currently have a full time job at a local veterinary clinic, however, I have flexibility in my schedule and don't work weekends. I'm available typically on same day basis. I have a modest home with a outdoor kennel, and indoor crates for safe, clean boarding for animals large or small! Plenty of love and attention given so they will not feel alone.
