Throughout our time away, she sent pictures and text updates on how my dog was adjusting. When we picked Max up, he was clean, calm, and doing great overall. A great experience!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was a teenager and have experience with a wide variety of breeds and personalities. Currently, I have a 4-year-old German Shepherd/Lab mix and a 4-month-old Jack Russell Terrier. Over the years, I’ve owned and cared for German Shepherds, Beagles, Pit Bulls, Jack Russells, Labradors, and Schnauzers, and at one point had as many as six dogs. I’ve also owned a cat and have experience caring for cats as well. Friends frequently trust me to pet sit for them, and I genuinely love spending time with animals. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, playful, or needs a little extra patience, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. I also am a Volunteer Dog walker and caregiver at Columbia Animal Shelter. I have a very flexible schedule and am committed to providing reliable, attentive care while you’re away. I’m currently in the army and work 2-3 days a week.my husband stays at home full time. I have a very flexible schedule. I care for every pet as if they were my own. In my client’s home, I follow their pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and plenty of attention and affection. I know how important consistency is for pets, especially when their owners are away. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and supervised environment with regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, fresh water, and lots of love. I pay close attention to each pet’s individual needs, personality, and comfort level to help them feel secure and happy.

One of my dogs is older with some arthritis, and she made sure he got all of his medicines and had a safe space to rest when he got tired out. Would definitely recommend!”

“Hadley is the best cat sitter!

About: I’ve shared my home with cats for many years (most recently with my beloved Mabel, who passed last year) and have cared for countless others through sitting, fostering, and daily life. I understand cats. There subtle signals, individual personalities, boundaries, and the quiet ways they show trust and affection!! 🐈⬛

“moe was great with my two cats! One of them seemed comfortable right away, but the other had a harder time adjusting (was not eating at first) and moe did a great job making her feel more comfortable with time.”
“Kristin is awesome! I booked check ins for Christmas day and the morning after. I'm so happy she could check on my two cats. She had mentioned to me at the meet and greet that this was her busiest Christmas week yet with a lot of bookings. I have worked in retail for a few years now and Christmas week can be so overwhelming, especially with now that I travel for family while having pets at home. I am so appreciative that she was able to show them care and attention even with one of the craziest weeks of the year. I had booked her in advance but even then I was worried and anxious about this. My job had me scheduled christmas eve, and then I was taking a midnight train to Florida that night. Plus this would be the first night that my cats were alone together without me. I'm just so happy that Kristin could check on them, they were happy and comfortable seeing her while I was gone. I am really thankful for her and she's a great sitter.”

“Isabella and her family are so nice and pleasant. They send pictures and keep me updated with Jett’s activities during the day. He gets excited when I mention her name which is a good sign.”

“Our two pups were SO happy and content to have spent the day with Savannah while I was out of town, I could tell they were well cared for and wouldn't hesitate to let them stay with her again!”
About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life from strays to fosters to pet sitting and my own pets. I have incredibly friendly pets that will make yours feel at home and I’m excellent at potty training puppies I’ve had several of my own over the years! I work from home so I have plenty of time to hangout with your beans :) while they are with me their schedule is my schedule! I have a fenced in yard, friendly cats and dogs and about a million toys for any pet, as well as private rooms they can hang in if they prefer to be alone and a cozy guest crate for pups if you like your beans crated at night or for any reason :)
“Caroline is an exceptional dog sitter. Her communication is stellar and she loves and treats the dogs in her care like her own. We had such a peace of mind while our dog was in her care. She is a true doggie mama.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals of every kind since I was young! I grew up with family cats and dogs and have always loved caring for them and playing with them. For the past ten years, I have been dog and cat sitting. I am used to visiting homes but have also housed many dogs and cats in my own home. A few summers ago, I housed and cared for a dog for three months while his owner was out of town. Over the summers, I frequently get daytime visitors when owners don’t want their dogs to be alone all day. I have significant experience with dogs and cats of all sizes and ages. I am extremely good with cats, as I’ve lived with one or more my whole life and am very fond of them. We do currently have a young cat in our home, so boarding is temporarily turned off. To explain the gap in my reviews from 2021 - 2023, I was at school and only home for holidays. I am home now for the foreseeable future. I’m currently working part-time, so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your pets! I have a car and am happy to visit as many times as necessary. With more advance notice, I can also move my shifts around to be more available for your pets. I have a fenced in backyard where dogs can run around! We have several dog gates in our possession as well if needed—they’ve been used in the past to separate more anxious dogs from my cat—and I am happy to crate your dogs according to your wishes or even aid in crate training. We have bowls of our own but would need dog food brought in. I am also familiar with grooming/brushing and could aid with that. I am very social and love to spend time with animals. If staying in your home, I will make sure to give your pets lots of love and prioritize their well-being. I will always reach out with questions if anything comes up.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 12. Now, I am a dog mom of 3 beauties. I have a 16 yr old shitzu terrier mixed,3 yr old a pit bull , and a 6 months English bull dog! I got out of the medical field, and have now devoted my lifestyle to my at home marketing and being a full time dog mom! I’m skilled in handling dogs of all sizes and all energy levels. I love teaching new tricks and commands. I wanted to pursue dog training once and tend to mimic a lot of tips that stick with me. Communicating with dogs comes really natural to me, and I love on all of the different personalities I’ve met. Can’t wait to meet your fur babies! ****I am also able to assist with any oral medications your pet may have. I have a very flexible schedule to where I work from home. My schedule is pretty open throughout the week. If I’m not working Rover, I’m home being a dog mom! In my clients home I will follow instructions as given. I own a crate if needed, I prefer not to crate if in my care. I’m always loving on my fur babies🥰
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.
“Chad was very accommodating to our variable timeline. He was super responsive, and sent updates during our dogs visit at his house. Our dog had so much fun being able to go in and out of the doggy door and play in the backyard!”
“Eileen was a very pleasant lady and great with Daisy. We felt very comfortable leaving Daisy with her, who had a good time with her dog. The fenced backyard was great for Daisy to roam around. I would recommend Eileen to anyone who needs a reliable pet sitter.”
“Andrea did a great job with Daisy! She was able to administer her medication and paid careful attention to detail. Thank you Andrea. We will see you soon for our next doggy day care”
“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.”
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.
“Matthew met me outside.my dog does not get around people to much and automatically to a liking to him that is a plus!!!? kept me informed of what was happening...and very nice and professional. Will absolutely use them again!!”
About: For 8+ years, I have cared for and loved my Lab mix, Ava, who I rescued at 6 weeks old. Over the years, I have also had a cat, and grew up as a child with many cats and dogs of various sizes, breeds, ages, and needs. Both family and friends have relied on me at times to pet sit while they are away (in my home or theirs). I also have experience giving medicine, liquid & pill form, to animals. In addition to this, I enjoy walking or playing fetch as much as your pup will! I am currently flexible most hours of the day and can accommodate your schedule and needs. I'm available for drop-ins and in-home doggy day care, as needed. Currently working on new fence construction, so for safety reasons I am not accepting pets in my home at this time. I will always strive to make your pet feel as happy and safe as you make them feel. If you are currently working on crate or command training, I'm glad to help enforce those while you're away, too! I am also willing to consider adjusting rates for add-on (only) of additional dogs <20lbs. Please just ask me directly to discuss prior to booking.
About: Hello. I have extensive experience with a variety of animals. As a child I rescued stray cats, dogs, and different wildlife. I've had cats, dogs, turtles, rabbits, domesticated rats...literally everything. I currently have 4 rescued ducks, 2 rescued turtles, and 4 baby tortoises (inside). I have a fenced in yard and numerous references. I do have 4 small kids. I work from home. If a pet is skittish around children, I keep them in my room so there is calmness. ***PLEASE send a collar and leash (leash for dogs) I work from home so your pup would have constant attention as they'd be hanging out with me. I do have a fenced in backyard (it has my outdoor animals it in). If the pup isnt good around farm animal, potty breaks can be on a leash in my front yard I have a fenced in backyard. I am okay with a dog that sleeps in a cage overnight...or not. There's definitely flexibility there if the dog isnt destructive. I will ensure the pup is comfortable and entertained.

About: While most of my pet care has been focused on cats, I do have experience caring for dogs as well. I have cared for animals of all different ages, health levels, and necessary care levels. I have experience with puppies and elderly dogs. I also have experience administering medicine to pets and caring for injured animals. I have some experience in grooming and upkeep of animals as well. In addition to Dogs and Cats I do have experience caring for all sorts of different animals. Including but not limited to snakes, hamsters, bunnies, lizards, ducks, and chickens. So, please feel free to contact me for any animal care you are searching for! I currently work part time at a restaurant and typically work 2-4 days a week. I am available before 3 or 5 pm the days that I am working, and I am currently available any time on the days I am not working at the restaurant. So my days off I have plenty of time to hang out with your little guys! Due to the fact that I have a young cat and roommates with allergies I cannot personally board animals. However, I am more than happy to care for your pet in your home. I am comfortable with walking any size of dog and am also comfortable with crating dogs and assisting in crate training. I am a very attentive person and notice any pattern changes in animals behavior. I am also very willing to answer any questions anyone might have! :)
About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was in high school. I've fed, bathed, walked, and provided enrichment for family, friends, and others. I am comfortable with many levels of activity, medication needs, and additional requests. I am a teacher with a set schedule so I am open to many duties over the various breaks, weekends, and time off from school. I do not currently have a dog of my own, nor can I keep one at my residence. However I am happy to help with walking, sitting, and other services

“Bless her heart, she took my big old treeing walker coon hound for a walk and he didn't want to come home after 30 mins so she walked him for another 50 minutes! He was too big for her to force home, but he eventually got tired and came home without fuss. I'm so grateful to her for being so flexible and patient with him!”
About: I love, love, LOVE animals and will lavish TLC on your fur babies! I started taking care of my neighborhood dogs and cats when I was 10-years-old in Greenville, SC. It's stressful for pets to be boarded while their owners are away, so I try to make sure that they feel loved and secure when I take care of them. I give lots of belly scratches and am known by my doggie work neighbors as the Treat Lady. I take my pet-sitting responsibilities seriously and make your pet my priority when you entrust them in my care. I want to you to go away with a light heart, knowing that your dog or cat is in my loving hands and that I'll spoil them rotten...

About: Ever since I was little, I have always had an animal companion at my side. I have experience with both senior pets with medical needs as well as puppies and kittens less than a year old. Wherever your pet is at in their life, I can handle it. I have a consistent schedule during the week and am available in the early mornings, lunch, and after 5. My weekends are completely free with the exception of Saturday evening when I work as a server. I am calm, gentle, and experienced with many animal personalities. Whether your pet is shy and nervous or bouncing and energetic, I will love them like my own!
About: I have never had a time in my life where I have never had a dog, so I am more than familiar with dog care. I have been relied upon for walks, feeding, playtime, and medicine distribution for both family dogs and friends’ dogs. I am a university student with a flexible schedule, but I do go home to work and over the summer. I would love to help you take care of your sweet fur babies whenever you need me! I have a fenced in yard where my two dogs are able to romp around a little bit and have good space to go to the bathroom. I also have a pool in the yard so they are able to swim and cool down. I adore spending quality time with dogs, so I love to hang out with them inside and play that way. I take dogs on walks at the very least once a day, weather permitting. When I am gone for a day, I take my dogs to Evergreen Pet Lodge, where they take incredible care of them and socialize until I can pick them up.
“Shanavia made me feel so safe and comfortable. My dog is a little crazy but she was so patient and took the time to understand my dog and train her. She has become my go to walker!”
About: Animals have always been a part of my life—from growing up with my sweet chocolate lab, Jessie, to now being a proud cat mom to Sir Purr and Smore. I’ve cared for pets at every stage of life, from playful puppies to senior cats and dogs, and I’ve learned so much from the pets of family members and neighbors along the way. For the past few years, I’ve been pet sitting for close family friends, and it’s something I truly love. Whether your pet needs extra playtime, gentle cuddles, or just a reliable routine, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. Your furry friends will be treated like family—because to me, they are! I’m currently working part-time so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your fur babies! I’m available for evenings and overnights on weekdays and available all weekends ! I offer reliable in-home pet care services including drop-ins, overnight stays, playtime, walks, and grooming.

Your pet’s well-being is my top priority, and I strive to create a stress-free experience for both you and your furry friend!
About: I have my own pets. I have two dogs and a cat and i love taking care of them. I have walked other peoples dogs before and cared for them! I graduated from college and moved back home. I work part time. Pet care fits into my schedule throughout the week. I have 2 dogs of my own. I would love you walk your dog or take care of your cat! I can provide care to pets at my clients home. I will always make sure they are happy, healthy, and have all their needs met.
About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, and every family pet I have had has truly been my best friend. They bring a level of comfort and unconditional love that is impossible to match, which is why caring for dogs and cats has always come naturally to me. I am currently a graduate student, and throughout high school and undergrad, I volunteered weekly at local animal shelters, gaining hands-on experience with dogs and cats of all ages, sizes and needs. Back home in Virginia, I have also been pet-sitting for neighbors and friends for the past 10 years, from quick check-ins and walks to overnight stays. I have experience caring for puppies and kittens who need patience and training, as well as senior dogs and cats who require medication and special diets. No matter the pet, I always make it my priority to ensure they feel safe, loved and cared for while their owners are away. I am currently out of school for the summer and working part-time, which gives me a very flexible schedule throughout the week and weekends. This allows me to accommodate a variety of drop-in visit and walking times, including mornings, afternoons evenings, and weekends. I love being active and spending time with dogs and cats, so pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine! I understand how important it is for pets to feel comfortable and safe with someone new, so I always prioritize building trust and letting the dog and/or cat get to know me on their own time. I am more than happy to do a meet-and-greet beforehand to ensure both the pet and the owner feel comfortable and confident. During drop-in visits and walks, it is my priority to follow each pet's routine as closely as possible and adapt to their own unique personality. I know how important safety is, so I will always make sure pets are secure on walks and closely supervised during visits. I also believe communication is key, so I will be sure to send all owners updates and photos for peace of mind while they are away.
About: I’ve grown up around all types of animals, not just cats and dogs. I’ve taken care of my own cat and dog for most of my life and will do anything to give them the love and care all animals need. I’m currently a full time student at the University of South Carolina. I love being a student but I also wanted to look into doing something on the side but that’s also fun. I think it’s always extremely important to be respectful of peoples homes. It’s a personal space where people are meant to feel relaxed and be themselves. Respecting my clients home would be top priority along with the care of their pet(s).

I am very familiar with the breeds American Bulldogs (my late pooch named Isabelle), Pitbulls (Josh), German Shepherds (Shotzi and Schnitzel). Please know your pets will be in good hands with me. I have also fostered 20+ dogs while volunteering for two no-kill rescues in Minneapolis. I worked for several years a holistic pet food and supply shop in Minneapolis, to boot. My home in Earlewood is the permanent residence of me and my two domestic shorthair tabbies, Derrick and Daryl. They’re great with other pets, especially dogs.

“Michael and his wife are very loving and caring with my dogs. They are always responsive and take the time to send pictures and updates, which I truly appreciate. My pets have stayed with them several times, and they have always treated them with so much love.”
“My dog normally is hesistant of new people but immediately took to Shannon. Shannon taught me about proper intros and health facts around bloating I never knew prior. She not only kept me updated while she boarded my high energy dog everyday she had her, she also was understanding of unexpected car issues i had on the day of pick up. I would recommend Shannon to anyone who needs a safe place for their pet and seeking good communication during whatever service they choose to explore with her. 10000/10 would recommend”
