“Kirsten is absolutely wonderful! Our fur babies always come home happy & content! We trust Kirsten, appreciate her TLC, and we have such peace of mind when our boys are with her. Thank you for taking such good care of Jack & Benny ☺️”
“We were brand new to Rover and honestly a little anxious about leaving our three fur babies with someone we didn’t know. Turns out we had nothing to worry about. Brennan is fantastic. We met her and her family about two weeks before the stay with our fur babies, and they were warm, welcoming, and put us at ease right away. During their 10-day stay, we received updates, photos, and videos every single day. It felt like our pups were off at the best doggy camp ever. They were loved and cared for as if they were her own. We couldn’t be happier. We definitely recommend Brennan and will absolutely use her again. Promise you won't be disappointed. 10/10!”
“This was our first time ever boarding our 17 month old Shih Tzu. And we had to leave him in the cone of shame for a sore he wouldn’t stop licking. I was uneasy to say the least. But our little guy liked Evelyn from the start. She has a calm, easy going demeanor that he liked instantly. She sent me photos and updates regularly especially since I was nervous about the sore on his skin. His stay went off without a hitch. We will definitely be using Evelyn again. Grateful for her good care of our sweet dog!”

“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!”
“This was my labs first time spending overnights with someone other than friends and family. They seemed to adjust well under Lindsay's care with no issues. Lindsay followed my instructions accordingly and for that I'm very grateful. I would recommend Lindsay to my friends. Thank you for loving my girls!”
“Shelly was awesome! She sent videos and photos of Maggie and really made me feel good about leaving my pup in her care 🩵 I will 1000% be booking with Shelly again! Thank you again for everything🙌🏻”

“Ms. Monica provided amazing service! She maintained communication and provided pictures and video!! My little pup looked so sweet and peaceful with her. She made us feel like a loved family member! When we picked Bentley up, he was right there cuddled up with her. He even let her touch his paws, which he does not let people he has just met, so. She was very knowledgeable about the large and small, no detail not considered, for example, the type of grass she has and why(because it’s beneficial for doggies)! My pup stayed with a family member as far as I’m concerned and we are ssoooo grateful!! Book with Ms. Monica, because I promise you, you will rest assured knowing your fur baby is with someone that cares for them just as much as you do, shoot maybe even more lol!

I came home to a happy, well cared for kitten. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Brennen again-highly recommend!”
About: I’ve been caring for cats for over 20 years and have experience with cats of all ages, personalities, and needs.

I treat every cat as if they were my own and would love the opportunity to care for your furry family member.

About: Hi, I’m Erica! As a military spouse and lifelong animal lover, I know how important it is to find safe, reliable, and loving care when you're away. I provide exclusive, one-family-at-a-time boarding, so your dog(s) will receive my full attention in a calm, personalized environment. Dogs in my care enjoy supervised, free roam of our home and daily play in our large, fully fenced yard, along with plenty of affection and enrichment. I have two friendly resident dogs: Leela, a sweet 6-year-old Lab mix, and a playful 8-month-old Lab puppy. Together, we go on daily walks and enjoy lots of backyard fun. I’ve cared for a wide range of breeds and completed multiple training courses, so I’m confident handling dogs with different temperaments and energy levels. Starting June 1, I’ll be offering boarding, daycare, drop-ins, and walks full-time from my home in Dalzell, SC. In May, I’m available evenings and weekends. I also have base access for drop-ins, pick-ups, and walks—just 10 minutes from the back gate. I’d love to meet you and your pup! Pet care is a natural and joyful part of my daily life. My own dogs are on a consistent routine that includes daily walks, playtime in our large fenced backyard, and plenty of snuggles throughout the day. I’m used to adjusting our schedule to meet the needs of the pets in my care—whether it’s administering medications, sticking to a feeding schedule, or making sure high-energy pups get lots of exercise. Starting in June, pet care will be my full-time focus, and I’m excited to welcome dogs into our home as part of our daily routine! When caring for pets in my home, they become part of our family. Dogs have full access to the home and our large fenced backyard for play, potty breaks, and relaxation throughout the day. I follow their normal routines as closely as possible—whether that’s meal times, walk schedules, or bedtime habits. We go on daily walks and have lots of playtime and affection to keep them happy, calm, and engaged. If I’m visiting a client’s home, I treat it with the same respect and care I’d expect for my own. I ensure pets are safe, well-fed, exercised, and comforted during each visit. I’m happy to water plants, bring in mail, or send regular updates with photos and videos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“We were visiting Tifton, GA for a few days and wanted to find a sitter where our 2 year old active black lab could run and play and enjoy the day while we were sight-seeing. I requested the stay the day before and Michelle responded to my request within 15 minutes! Even though Michelle was 30 miles away from where we were staying, it was worth the travel to have a family so loving and attentive to Gus! Their home was perfect for Gus! Big wide open space to run, another friendly dog, Roscoe, to play with, and a dog-friendly home that met all his needs. If we are in this area again, we will definitely contact Michelle!!”

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 spent over two years managing a dog training facility, so I really understand how to make pups feel comfortable, confident, and cared for. I’m also Dog CPR certified, so safety is always a top priority. What really makes my boarding special is that your dog isn’t just a guest — they become part of a warm, nurturing family. From playtime and cuddles to cozy naps, your pup will feel right at home while you’re away. Pet care is a big part of my everyday life! I work outside the house for only about two hours a day, so I’m home the majority of the time to give your pup plenty of love, attention, and playtime. I’m available all weekdays and stay flexible with drop-offs and pick-ups to make things easy for you. Whether it’s morning walks, cuddle breaks, or evening playtime, I make sure every dog feels cared for and part of the family all day long. When your dog stays with me, they become part of my family! I have a big fenced-in yard that’s perfect for playtime and zoomies, plus another friendly dog who loves making new friends. Our two little ones adore helping with gentle pets and belly rubs — it’s truly a home full of love. Everyone’s safety always comes first, so if a pup prefers quiet time or needs their own space, I make sure they have a comfy, peaceful spot to relax. Your dog will feel right at home with plenty of love, care, and family fun every day.

About: I’ve had and taken care of dogs my whole life! I have experience with young, senior, active, and working dogs. My family dog growing up was born deaf and with a thyroid condition so I am very familiar with medication admission or other disabilities. My husband and I often work different shifts so someone is often home with the dog(s). I have no problem moving work around to care for your furbaby! I have a fenced in yard and large home. There is only one dog and plenty of room for the dogs to stretch their legs or spread out. I am active and will run or walk your pet!

“Kirsten is absolutely wonderful! Our fur babies always come home happy & content! We trust Kirsten, appreciate her TLC, and we have such peace of mind when our boys are with her. Thank you for taking such good care of Jack & Benny ☺️”
“We were brand new to Rover and honestly a little anxious about leaving our three fur babies with someone we didn’t know. Turns out we had nothing to worry about. Brennan is fantastic. We met her and her family about two weeks before the stay with our fur babies, and they were warm, welcoming, and put us at ease right away. During their 10-day stay, we received updates, photos, and videos every single day. It felt like our pups were off at the best doggy camp ever. They were loved and cared for as if they were her own. We couldn’t be happier. We definitely recommend Brennan and will absolutely use her again. Promise you won't be disappointed. 10/10!”
“Alexis did a wonderful job of taking care of our beagle, Wylie. She texted me with an update almost every day. I will definitely have Wylie stay with her the next time we need a pet sitter.”

“Shelly was awesome! She sent videos and photos of Maggie and really made me feel good about leaving my pup in her care 🩵 I will 1000% be booking with Shelly again! Thank you again for everything🙌🏻”

“Michelle was fantastic with our pup! He had so much fun playing with her sweet dog and friends, and she sent us pictures throughout his stay so we could see how happy he was! She was great at arranging pickup and drop off, to make sure it worked with our schedule too. Will definitely be rebooking when we need.”
“Lauren was excellent and helped us out with boarding for our dog at the last minute when our other arrangements fell through. She sent photos to reassure us all was going well. It was so nice to find someone nearby we could rely on on such short notice.”

“Daisy is awesome!! Took great care of Teddy over the weekend and even before that went to great lengths to change her flight to be home in time to keep him. We really appreciated the photos and updates we received the whole time :) hopefully will bring teddy again in the future!”
“Paola was wonderful with Riley. He took to her right away, letting me know she was a good person because dogs have six sense about those things. I wish I could give her more than 5 stars. I would never hesitate about leaving my fur baby with Paola because she loved him like I would at home. She kept me informed with text and pictures of how he was doing. I highly recommend her if you ever need to leave your fur baby, they will be cared for Paola. 😊”
“Erica was an absolute blessing to our family. We've been hesitant about boarding options for our Goldendoodle - as she's truly part of our family, and we could not have asked for a better first experience with Rover. Erica took amazing care of Ellie, sent us daily reports and photos, and communicated perfectly.”
“Merrell took such great care of Saint, both weekends I was out of town. She regularly communicated and sent photos of my pup playing and keeping me updated on how he doing/getting along with her other dogs. I would highly recommend using Merrell for your pet sitting needs!”
“This was my first time using Rover, and I was so happy with Kayla and Jonathan. I would absolutely use them again. We were travelling internationally and Kayla was amazing at communicating throughout the whole process. She was very flexible, and when our return flight was delayed (significantly) she was very accommodating of a change in pickup time. I had no worries whatsoever for the time that Jesse stayed with them. They made travelling so much easier by providing peace of mind that my dog was well taken care of.”
