“They were absolutely wonderful! Sent lots of pictures and videos and our two GSD’s were happy and tired. Their homestead is a perfect place!! We are very grateful. Would definitely book again & recommend.”
“Thank you again, Kristin! I highly recommend her, not only because of the wonderful care she gave my dog, but also because she accepted a last minute booking without hesitation. She kept us updated the entire time and followed up throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. Simon was very happy, and so were we. We would definitely book with her again!”
“This was my first time leaving my dog with a sitter. A friend has watched her previously. I was very nervous, but Saffron was very accommodating and understanding. She sent pictures daily and kept me updated. I would recommend her to anyone.”
“Jennifer was great with my dogs, and she sent pictures often and I very much appreciate it. I feel like she treated my dogs like family and I will definitely use her again.”
“I will definitely be using Alexis and John again! I had zero issues leaving my fur baby with them! They sent tons of pictures and updates and Cali loved playing with their dog and kids. Highly recommend them to anyone!”
“The first time I met Melissa, I knew our fox terrier, Hershey ♥️ would be in good hands. Melissa is kind, caring, responsible and sends daily pictures with updates. She has a beautiful fenced in yard. I highly recommend Melissa♥️”
“This was the third time we have used the services of Jessica and Stephen for our pup and we could not be more pleased with everything about their care. From the pictures, and the daily walks to the detailed and humorous updates, Jessica and Stephen bring a level of compassion and professionalism that inspires confidence and trust that our pup is in the best of hands. We are able to travel for family visits without worry, and able to enjoy our time knowing our good boy is enjoying his time with Jessica and Stephen and their good boys! Thank you so much Jessica and Stephen!”
“I changed the times that we would drop off and pick up Penny and Hannah was very accommodating . She sent us pictures and updates often, which I love to receive! I would recommend Hannah and her fur baby Tillie!”
“Sienna & James took amazing care of my dog over the weekend! They sent us regular photo updates, and it was clear that Marley was having a great time and felt right at home. She looked so happy in every picture — playing, cuddling, and just enjoying herself! I’m so grateful for the love and attention they gave her. It was truly a perfect experience. We highly recommend them!”
“Justin and Ashlyn were absolutely amazing!! They cared for our two pups like they were always a part of the family! They sent fantastic updates, the pictures were wonderful, the outdoors time couldn’t be better, and it was such a relief knowing our dogs were in great hands with their family. Would highly recommend and we’ve already looked at requesting their services again for availability. If you’re looking for a sitter to take care of your dogs and provide amazing care for your life’s busy demands, Justin and Ashlyn are the best choice!”
“David was so great to our sweet Parker! He sent me daily updates and also photos when I asked. This was only the second time for us leaving her with someone for longer than a night and ya not having any family in the area, I was worried I wouldn’t find someone I felt comfortable with or trusted- That was not the case here! He did so awesome and we can’t wait to plan our next getaway now knowing she’ll be in such good care!!”
“Leayn was able to take my doggo on short notice when I was told that I needed to ship overseas for a few months. Leayn took such good care of my doggo until my parents could come pick him up! Having the piece of mind that he was happy and safe with Leayn made the whole situation so much smoother and less stressful!”
“I could not be any happier with the care and love Levon got while staying with Benjamin and his wife! It gave me peace of mind and the ability to enjoy my trip knowing how much fun he was having with their dogs. I’ll definitely use their services again!”
“Well all I can say is this...... Ashley is no longer our dog sitter..She is FAMILY. She took in my Three dogs ( two are pit bulls) and kept them for a week while we went on vacation. Her home was well equipped for my big dogs and her family loved our dogs as if they were their own. And my wife got to FaceTime our babies while we were gone. Great Experience!!!!!! Will always use Ashley when we go out of town for our dogs.”
“Autumn and her sweet family took such good care of our furbaby during some time away. Communication was great and I felt very comfortable. It was so nice to receive pictures of her being so well cared for and loved on, and to be able to check on her at anytime. Sammy will definitely be staying with Autumn and her family again! Thank you so much for all the love you showed my sweet girl!”
“This was my first time using Jessica and also Blu’s first time with a petsitter. I was extremely nervous to leave him for the weekend with someone he didn’t know because Blu gets anxious really easily. However, within the first hour of dropping him off, Jessica sent me a video of Blu and her dog River, chasing each other in her fenced in backyard having a good time. Her dog River is a sweet natured dog that really helps new dogs being left in Jessica’s care, acclimate to the new environment. Within just a couple hours, she sent me a photo of Blu laying on top of her husband on the couch, which is something I haven’t seen him do with anyone except myself. Jessica was extremely responsive providing pictures throughout each day he was there without me having to ask. She’d send me an update each day before I’d even begin to think about how he was doing. I highly recommend and will definitely be using her again every time I need a sitter in the Summerville/Charleston area.”
“I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with Selena. She was a good communicator and we got daily updates and pictures from her which we loved. We aren't local to her, but if we were, we would certainly use hey again.”
“Awesome sitter! Sent pictures without needing to request them and I loved the constant updates, great communicater☺️ The dogs came back very happy❤️ Definitely a dog sitter that I will be using again!”

“Emily is such a Sweetheart and very attentive. She has a genuine love for dogs. From the second I met her, l knew she would be wonderful. She even walked the dog walking route with me during the meet and greet!! I can tell from the pics that the dogs enjoyed seeing her and would anxiously wait for her. I will definitely ask for her services again!”
“Johnathon was absolutely wonderful! He took great care of my cats while I was on vacation and made me feel super comfortable every step of the way. I loved getting video updates as well of my little fur babies having a blast. I feel great knowing I now have someone trustworthy I can rely on when I’m out of town. 100/10”
About: "I believe pets are family, and I treat every animal I care for as my own. With 6 years of professional pet sitting and fostering experience, I am deeply comfortable managing multi-pet households, including cats and dogs living together. I understand that cats often need a more gentle, patient approach, and I'm highly experienced in administering [e.g., daily insulin injections, oral pills, fluid therapies] and maintaining clean, stress-free environments. I'm dependable, detail-oriented, and dedicated to giving your fur babies the best possible care." I work Monday-Friday till 4:30 and have some time in the mornings/evenings to take care of your pets. I have weekends off to spend and can even stay in home with the animals. I follow the owners house rules and I listen to the animals on their needs. If the owners have a schedule I will follow. I do light house cleaning daily or as needed.
About: I am taking care of cats for many years. I owned a couple cats in the past one lived until she was 19 years old and passed away from natural causes. We certainly do miss having a cat and each cat that comes into our home is life family I do litter box, medication, administration, playtime, meals, and much more.
About: I have been a vet tech for 14 years now and I absolutely love the work I do. Unfortunately, being a single mother doesn't allow me to fully commit to veterinary clinic hours. I am starting up my own mobile pet service business called Pampered Pet. I provide excellent pet care along with other services such as nail trims, sanitary and paw shave, baths and more. I will give your fur-baby lots of love and attention so you can rest your mind knowing your pet is in great hands. If there happens to be an emergency situation while I am there, I know what steps to take and have veterinarian contacts on hand. I am committed to all my clients and their fur-babies. Please contact me with any questions. I look forward to meeting you and your fur-baby. I currently run my own business so I will have plenty of time to give your fur baby the attention and loving they deserve while you are away. We are working on a fence at the moment. Your pup will love playing with my sweet yellow lab. If needed, I can always put my dog in his kennel. I do not foresee that happening though.
“Alexa was amazing. She was very attentive to our kitties who grew attached to her right away. She was always in communication with us and sent us regular updates while we were away. I highly recommend her for any pet sitting needs!!”
“Casey Anne is literally the best Rover sitter I’ve had, and I’ve had quite a few. She was so helpful and accommodating to my needs and my cat loves her. I will be using her again and highly recommend anyone to use her. Thanks so much!”
“Where to begin?! My 3.5 yr old goldendoodle failed his temperament test at a local dog boarding place just a few weeks before my vacation. In a panic, I hopped on Rover. Come to find one of my former students, Athena! It was a NO BRAINER to have her do drop-in visits while I was away. Fredo IMMEDIATELY grew a liking to her. She *always* had such a kind, compassionate, and nurturing energy about her. She went ***ABOVE AND BEYOND*** and truly superseded our expectations!!! The constant picture and video updates definitely tempered the sting of the dog mommy separation anxiety! …I think my dog was even annoyed when I got home because he knew that meant Athena’s job was done ?. Choosing her as a sitter for your pet(s) is the BEST thing you can do for you and your furry fam!!!!”
“We would like to not write a such a great review and keep Taylor all to ourselves, but the truth is that she is phenomenal! We couldn't have asked for a better person to care for our furry family members. She is sweet, super accommodating, and truly loved all the interaction and attention she gave to our two Maine Coons....and they gave her in return. She is simply stellar! We expect to reach out to her over and over again. Thanks Taylor!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Ritter
About: Hey! I’m Kristin 🩷 a stay-at-home mom and a lifelong Lowcountry local, CofC grad, and a big-time animal lover! I live in Summers Corner in Summerville, SC with my husband, twin boys, and our dachshund weenie. We have a fully fenced-in yard, lots of room to play, and a cozy environment perfect for dogs. I have a flexible schedule and can easily work around your needs. References are always available if you’d like to chat with other happy pet parents! Whether your pup loves fetch, belly rubs, or just a sunny spot to nap, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. 💛 As a stay-at-home mom with a flexible schedule, I’m home most of the day and can easily give your pet consistent attention, playtime, and care throughout the day. In my home, pets are treated like family! I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where they can feel comfortable and secure. I stick closely to your pet’s routine, whether that means scheduled feedings, regular potty breaks, walks, medication, or downtime. We have a fully fenced-in yard for supervised outdoor play, and a senior dachshund who is gentle and used to sharing his space. I never leave pets unattended for long and always pay close attention to each animal’s comfort, energy level, and needs. I have experience with crate-trained dogs, senior pets, and puppies, and I adjust my care to match what each pet needs, whether it’s more activity, quiet time, or a little extra patience. I also provide plenty of updates and photos so you always know your pet is safe and happy. In a client’s home, I’m respectful, reliable, and committed to keeping your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible. Your pet will be treated with the same love and attention I give my own.
“I traveled down from Maryland last minute for an unfortunate loss in my family. Everything happened so quickly that I didn't gave time to make arrangements for Bear, my 6 month old Cavapoo who had literally just gotten neutered a few days prior. After my 9 hour drive I prayed and hopped on Rover. God led me to Ashley and I have no regrets. Her home was beautiful and fulled with pictures of her sweet young family. She was so kind and Bear settled in immediately. I will definitely use her services again!!!!”
“Leayn was absolutely amazing! I needed a last-minute sitter for my old, deaf dog while I was in a meeting. He fit right in, and loved his time with her and the other dogs she was sitting. Thanks Leayn!”
About: We have many animals at our home, we have a two year old lab, 2 cats and 14 chickens. We’ve had a senior dachshund, senior lab and senior cat before so we are all well versed in the care of different animals at different stages. I am currently a stay at home mom so I am able to make our schedule whatever it needs to be to properly care for your animals while you are away. We have a yard with privacy fence so animals can run freely in the yard. We have a two year old lab that does wonderfully with other dogs and would love to be your pets playmate. We have a kennel if need be and are comfortable allowing animals to sleep outside of the kennel as well if that is their preference.
About: I take the time to understand every dog’s personality—whether they’re shy, energetic, or somewhere in between—so each walk or visit feels safe, fun, and tailored just for them. Communication is a big priority for me too; you’ll always get clear updates, photos, and notes after every outing. Pet care is a natural part of my day-to-day life, and my schedule is very flexible, which means I can easily accommodate walks. Whether it’s early-morning outings, midday potty breaks, or evening strolls, I’m able to adjust my routine to fit yours. Your pet’s comfort and consistency always come first. I stick to your dog’s routine, providing safe, consistent walks tailored to their energy and needs. Each walk includes attention, patience, and clear updates so you always know how they did.
About: I have had to take care of puppies since I was 9 years old and throughout out my teenager years until adulthood. I cared for the most sensitive dogs including English bull dogs, Boxers and Doberman Pinchers. I also rescued stray dogs . I have also nourished my sick dog back to health when doctor had no diagnosis. He was given a death sentence but I cured him. I am well versed in the expected health of dogs and I have resuscitated a few puppies who were near death . I am flexible because I work remotely part time . I make time for my own dogs daily by allowing them to play out back and they have plenty of toys and attention needed daily . I treat animals like part of the family . I have a fenced in yard and have a smaller dog and a trainer dog that helps younger dogs behave .My trainer Nessa helps small or younger dogs with behavioral issues .
“Can't give enough compliments to Tara and her family! I have been traveling a lot with my dog and ran into dilemmas when I couldn't bring him certain places with me. Knowing he would be an anxious mess staying in an unfamiliar setting, I looked for nearby sitters and was amazed at Tara's quick response on such short notice. Her neighborhood is perfect for dog walking and her home is clean, safe, and comfortable. Her children are so respectful and were wonderful helpers during Crusoe's stay. I received photos of him enjoying time outside and of course cuddling with the little ones! I rebooked again with Tara the next day and won't hesitate to do so next time we're in town!”
“Sarah took great care of my two Aussies. They came home super tired. If we weren’t moving away I would definitely use her again. Very friendly and quickly responds to messages.”
About: I worked at Oradell Animal Hospital for over 2 years in the Emergency Room, taking care of the most critical patients in the ICU, along with simple tasks like walking them, feeding them, etc. I recently graduated from college and am officially a New Jersey liscensed Veterinary Technician, along with all of the prior hospital experience! I also worked at a grooming shop for 4 years which including washing, drying, grooming, etc. Since a young age my passion has always been to be surrounded by animals. Dog sitting and walking is currently my full time job! I’m not actively doing Vet Tech work, so I’m more than happy to give your furry babies my undivided attention! Fenced in yard, plenty of bowls and dishes, crates, toys, and am open to providing whatever else your animal may need. All of my pets are sweet and love making new friends!
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for the past two years and truly enjoy building trust with each one. I have experience walking, feeding, playing, and providing basic care for dogs of different sizes and personalities. I’m patient, attentive, and always make sure dogs feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand that every dog has unique needs, and I take the time to follow routines and instructions closely so pet parents can feel confident their dog is in good hands. I am home seven days a week since I attend school online. Even when I need to run errands, I am usually gone for no more than two hours at a time. This allows me to provide frequent supervision, attention, and care. When I am not home, my wife is also available to help care for the pets, so they are never left alone for long. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment for every dog in my care. I have a large, fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play and get exercise under supervision. I closely follow each pet’s routine, instructions, and any special needs provided by the owner. Dogs are always supervised, given plenty of attention, and treated with patience and respect so they feel comfortable, secure, and cared for at all times.
About: I absolutely adore pups of every size and personality! At home, I have a Shih Tzu, a Dalmatian (we thought he was a Lab until we did DNA testing!), and a sweet little Chihuahua. Each one is so different, but together they make the perfect pack. All of my dogs came from tough beginnings, but their resilience and ability to love inspires me every day. Giving them a safe, happy, and loving home has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. I would treat your pets just like my own—keeping them safe, cared for, and comfortable while giving them all the love and attention they deserve. Whether it’s cuddles, playtime, or just making sure their needs are fully met, I’ll make sure your furry family members feel right at home. I’m a proud pet parent to three wonderful rescue pups, and I honestly couldn’t love them more. Watching them learn how to simply be dogs—to play, to trust, to feel safe and loved—has been one of the most rewarding parts of my life. They give me just as much joy as I give them. Our pack has a well-loved routine: breakfast and dinner together (with Otis getting his pill at each meal). Since I work from home, two of the pups usually “work” alongside me—though Ollie prefers lots of days off. Their work ethic may be questionable, but their company is unmatched! Ozzie, on the other hand, takes his role as head of security very seriously, keeping a close watch from the front window. At home, the dogs are always by my side, whether it’s keeping me company during the day or snuggling at night. They sleep in bed, lounge on the furniture, and honestly think of me as part of the furniture too—and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Caring for them has taught me the importance of patience, safety, and unconditional love—values I carry into caring for every dog I meet.Each dog is unique, and I happily adjust to their needs. From carrying Ollie up and down stairs, up and down from the couch to giving him stroller walks so he can keep up, I make sure every pup feels included. I’ll give your dog the same love, patience, and care I give my own. Our home has three friendly pups—Ozzie is the biggest at just 45 lbs! Yard is fully fenced and secure yard, but I always go outside with them to ensure safety. Our dogs are allowed on the furniture, but I’m happy to follow your preferences if you’d like your littles to stick to their own cozy spots. At home, we keep things relaxed and let the pups be themselves. We always keep fresh water available (three bowls downstairs that I’m constantly refilling!). If I’m dropping by to care for your pets, you can count on me to be prompt, respectful, and to show them the same love and attention I give my own. Keeping dogs safe is a top priority for me—I know the worry of even imagining a lost pet, and I’ll always make sure yours are secure. Beyond that, I truly enjoy spending time with dogs, whether it’s playing, cuddling, or even having a “deep conversation” with them. After all, they always have the best listening ears.

Typically to keep a nice stable and calm environment I encourage my clientele to allow me to stay at their home or periodically check in on their pets in their own home. I have found that over the years being in their own home is where pets are most comfortable and safe.
About: I’ve trained dogs to be crate trained, potty trained and leash trained. Haven't met many dogs who don't like me, especially after interacting with them more than once. Even the little chihuahuas that are ankle biters. Our doormat says "dogs welcome, people tolerated". Let me love your floofer, pupper, doggo or whichever term you use. Flexible career where I can make time to take care of your pups. Whenever I am needed or if they’re used to a specific schedule I can make happen. Treat your space and dogs as it’s my own. I am very tidy and keep my own space well kept. I go above and beyond.

“Thank you again, Kristin! I highly recommend her, not only because of the wonderful care she gave my dog, but also because she accepted a last minute booking without hesitation. She kept us updated the entire time and followed up throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. Simon was very happy, and so were we. We would definitely book with her again!”
“This was my first time leaving my dog with a sitter. A friend has watched her previously. I was very nervous, but Saffron was very accommodating and understanding. She sent pictures daily and kept me updated. I would recommend her to anyone.”
“I will definitely be using Alexis and John again! I had zero issues leaving my fur baby with them! They sent tons of pictures and updates and Cali loved playing with their dog and kids. Highly recommend them to anyone!”
“This was the third time we have used the services of Jessica and Stephen for our pup and we could not be more pleased with everything about their care. From the pictures, and the daily walks to the detailed and humorous updates, Jessica and Stephen bring a level of compassion and professionalism that inspires confidence and trust that our pup is in the best of hands. We are able to travel for family visits without worry, and able to enjoy our time knowing our good boy is enjoying his time with Jessica and Stephen and their good boys! Thank you so much Jessica and Stephen!”
“I changed the times that we would drop off and pick up Penny and Hannah was very accommodating . She sent us pictures and updates often, which I love to receive! I would recommend Hannah and her fur baby Tillie!”
“Sienna & James took amazing care of my dog over the weekend! They sent us regular photo updates, and it was clear that Marley was having a great time and felt right at home. She looked so happy in every picture — playing, cuddling, and just enjoying herself! I’m so grateful for the love and attention they gave her. It was truly a perfect experience. We highly recommend them!”
“Justin and Ashlyn were absolutely amazing!! They cared for our two pups like they were always a part of the family! They sent fantastic updates, the pictures were wonderful, the outdoors time couldn’t be better, and it was such a relief knowing our dogs were in great hands with their family. Would highly recommend and we’ve already looked at requesting their services again for availability. If you’re looking for a sitter to take care of your dogs and provide amazing care for your life’s busy demands, Justin and Ashlyn are the best choice!”
“David was so great to our sweet Parker! He sent me daily updates and also photos when I asked. This was only the second time for us leaving her with someone for longer than a night and ya not having any family in the area, I was worried I wouldn’t find someone I felt comfortable with or trusted- That was not the case here! He did so awesome and we can’t wait to plan our next getaway now knowing she’ll be in such good care!!”
“Leayn was so AMAZING!! so many pictures of our baby having fun, constant updates (which I love so I had no worries). Also she’s super flexible with times, which helped us coming back from our trip with a breeze for pick up. Overall can’t thank her enough, definitely dropping off my pup to her again!”
“Well all I can say is this...... Ashley is no longer our dog sitter..She is FAMILY. She took in my Three dogs ( two are pit bulls) and kept them for a week while we went on vacation. Her home was well equipped for my big dogs and her family loved our dogs as if they were their own. And my wife got to FaceTime our babies while we were gone. Great Experience!!!!!! Will always use Ashley when we go out of town for our dogs.”
“Autumn and her sweet family took such good care of our furbaby during some time away. Communication was great and I felt very comfortable. It was so nice to receive pictures of her being so well cared for and loved on, and to be able to check on her at anytime. Sammy will definitely be staying with Autumn and her family again! Thank you so much for all the love you showed my sweet girl!”
“This was my first time using Jessica and also Blu’s first time with a petsitter. I was extremely nervous to leave him for the weekend with someone he didn’t know because Blu gets anxious really easily. However, within the first hour of dropping him off, Jessica sent me a video of Blu and her dog River, chasing each other in her fenced in backyard having a good time. Her dog River is a sweet natured dog that really helps new dogs being left in Jessica’s care, acclimate to the new environment. Within just a couple hours, she sent me a photo of Blu laying on top of her husband on the couch, which is something I haven’t seen him do with anyone except myself. Jessica was extremely responsive providing pictures throughout each day he was there without me having to ask. She’d send me an update each day before I’d even begin to think about how he was doing. I highly recommend and will definitely be using her again every time I need a sitter in the Summerville/Charleston area.”
“I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with Selena. She was a good communicator and we got daily updates and pictures from her which we loved. We aren't local to her, but if we were, we would certainly use hey again.”
“Awesome sitter! Sent pictures without needing to request them and I loved the constant updates, great communicater☺️ The dogs came back very happy❤️ Definitely a dog sitter that I will be using again!”
About: I grew up with 2 dogs in the house and got my fur baby 11 years ago. I’ve been taking care of my own and helping other for over 10 years. Love being outside and letting our four legged family members get their much needed play time! Stay at home mom with a flexible schedule to help with walks/potty breaks during the day. Available most weekends to help sit and possible weekdays depending on how long of a stay is needed. I have an 11 year old Shepard mix who loves the company of another fur friend. I also have a medium size dog crate if needed.
About: *PLEASE READ* Transparency is important to me, so I want pet parents to know I work full-time in Mount Pleasant during the weekdays (7:30 AM–4:00 PM). Because of my commute from Summerville, I’m unable to leave work early before 4:00 PM. This schedule works best for pets comfortable during the workday, and I’m fully available for evenings, nights, and weekends.. Communication is very important to me — I provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins so you always know your pet is safe and cared for. My goal is for both pets and owners to feel completely comfortable and confident while they’re apart. I can do drop in before 630 am and anytime after 4 pm Caring for pets fits naturally into my day because spending time with animals is something I truly love.” Dogs are my peace and relaxing time. “Reliable, loving care for your pet, with routines, exercise, and plenty of attention. “Your pet’s happiness and safety is my top priority." Happy babies.
“We had a great experience with our Manik while they watched Simba and River. I really appreciated the updates and pictures, which gave me peace of mind and showed that my dogs were having lots of fun and getting plenty of love and attention. It was clear they were well cared for. I would definitely use them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter.”
“Excellent care for our senior doodle! Rachel is professional and I would absolutely recommend her. She communicated with us frequently and I felt confident knowing my dog was in her care. She was flexible when our flight was significantly delayed and we couldn’t get our dog until the next morning. Five stars!!!”
