“Whitney and her family have taken amazing care of my 10 lb pomapoo, Mili. They’re always reliable and Mili loves being taken care of by Whitney and her family! I definitely recommend Whitney for anyone having to go away for a couple days and cannot bring their fur babies with them!”

“I am extremely satisfied and grateful for the care my baby received. She was well taken care and given love and attention. Evelyn kept constant communications about daily activities and sent me pictures often. I appreciate her care for my baby and for the flexibility with changes. A top notch sitter.”

“Thank you Debbie! Very professional and knowledgeable! Our dog Dallas had a blast! We appreciated the daily pictures and updates. We will for sure be bringing Dallas back!”


“Merrell was absolutely AMAZING with our sweet puppy Luna!!!! I highly recommend her. She was wonderful at communicating with us and sent lots of pictures every day! We will definitely have her watch Luna in the future! She went above and beyond and took wonderful care of our little girl! I could tell she had a blast hanging out! Thank you so much! ?”

“First timer using rover, Janece and Matthew did am amazing job with my baby. Daily pictures and updates. She definitely had a vacation also. Will definitely book again very soon!!!”

“We couldn't be happier with the care that Tabitha provided for my furry baby! They were incredibly attentive, responsible, and clearly passionate about animals. My dog, Rubble, is always excited to see her, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend Tabitha to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving caregiver for their pet. We are repeat clients.”

“I found Daisy through the Rover app. My dogs normal daycare was fully booked. My dog did not really like the previous doggie day care place. Daisy was a perfect. She sent several messages and pictures each day. My dog seemed happy there and I was happy with her service. Prior to giving him anything extra she would text me first. I loved the communication. I would strongly suggest Daisy to anyone looking for a dog sitter. This was an awesome experience 👏 🙌.”

“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!”

“I needed to board my cat, Simba, and did not want to use my regular pet boarding facility. I usually board him there; however, this time I did not want him in a caged environment. I found Charmaine through Rover, and I am glad I did. I was a little apprehensive at first, but after speaking with her and seeing how attentive she was to Simba’s needs, I felt much more comfortable. Simba is blind and requires extra care, but Charmaine took excellent care of him. She allowed him to roam freely in her home, making him feel comfortable and at ease. Throughout his stay, Charmaine provided regular updates, including pictures and videos, which gave me peace of mind. She not only met Simba’s needs but went above and beyond to ensure he was happy and well cared for. If anyone is looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter, I highly recommend Charmaine. My experience with her was outstanding, and I would not hesitate to use her services again.”

“Michelle was very pleasant and patient with my dog, who is not accustomed to people outside of our family. When we arrived, she made sure she understood all of our preferences regarding eating, sleeping, and socializing. 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!”

“She was sooo awesome at communicating she sent updates every day showing me how happy my dog was she accommodate every need I had she responded quickly each time she even took him on walks !!!!!!!”

“I am so happy to have found Becky! Maggie was so happy throughout her stay and Becky took amazing care of her! I didn’t have to think twice about whether she was ok or not. She gave Maggie so many cuddles!!”

“Yua is a fantastic sitter and my dog loves coming here so much that he pulls to go back during my walks with him around the neighborhood! The consistent daily updates, good communication, and photos are very appreciated.”

“Kathy was great! She took wonderful care of my dog while my partner and I were on vacation overseas. She has several sweet natured dogs and my dog had so much fun playing with them. Kathy also sent daily updates with sweet photos and videos. I would recommend her to anyone who needs a safe place to leave their pet.”


“Tony has watched my dog, Saint, twice now, and I couldn’t be happier with the care he’s provided. I’m new to using Rover and I’m extremely thankful that I found Tony. So much so that I refuse to look for any other sitter. He’s been pleasant to work with, trustworthy, and always makes me feel confident that Saint is in great hands. One thing I really appreciate is the updates. Every picture Tony sends, Saint looks genuinely happy, relaxed, and comfortable, which gives me so much peace of mind while I’m away. It’s obvious that Saint enjoys spending time with him. I truly appreciate Tony’s flexibility as I venture out of town pretty often. Whether Saint is there with others or just as the only guest, he’s always well cared for and comes home happy. I highly recommend Tony to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”

“This was our first experience with Rover and we were two nervous fur parents. Nontombe picked up our pets on Christmas Day (that is up and above service for sure). Our babies were immediately drawn to her. She updated us daily with pictures and videos of our babies having a great time. My husband was sure that our Milo would not want to come back home with us because he was cheesing in every picture she sent. We had the best experience and our pets were treated with much care and love. We will definitely use Nontombe's services in the future! We highly recommend her as a pet-loving amazing caregiver.”

“Tamera was amazing. I made a mistake and booked a week earlier than meant to and she was able to come by the same day. Super quick to reply and helped me with booking stuff because it was my first time using rover. My shy cat seemed to like her as well! Usually she hides from new people but Tamera was special”


“Kathryn was amazing and I am so appreciative of her stepping in on a late notice and loving on my boy! I could tell from the pictures he got a lot of attention and play time, couldn’t be more happy and recommend Kathryn to anyone!”


“Natalie was such a great last minute sitter, truly a Godsend! She was very kind and my babygirl seemed to enjoy her company very much, I would recommend Natalie to anyone who needs a good drop in sitter. Communication and timeliness were on point 10/10 💕”


“Jessica has made a fantastic impression on our fur babies. She is great at what she do. Not only have we rebooked her, but looking to continue to book with our other upcoming vacations.”


“My kitties said we want Katie to watch us again. My kitties were well taken care of and happy when we came home! We got regular updates and would definitely recommend her to watch your pets.”

“Karina was fantastic with my cats! One of them is very shy and usually takes a very long time to open up to people but she made an exception for Karina! Big thank you and a huge recommendation to anyone else who needs their furry friends taken care of!”


“Sean was a great sitter. He was coming twice a day to feed and play with our British Blue cat. He provided a great professional service. He communicated to us twice a day with pictures and videos of our cat making us happy and allowing us to relax during our vacation. We will be using him again for our next vacation.”


“Beverly did a great job! Very communicative and professional. This was my first time on Rover so I had a lot of questions and she was very forthcoming in helping to understand and in ensuring that my time away was stress free and my cats were in good hands. Great job!”


“Aaron gave my friend, my cat, the spa treatment - now he is raving about Aaron at every moment. His food was on time and in proper quantities and the eating area cleaned, all water (fountains) full and never empty, and hotel like liter boxes - hotel like cleaned. He wants the same treatment from me now. I received timely updates, and pictures from Aaron of various aspects of his care - and one or two photos of my cat, when he decided to make a showing (he likes to hide on occasion.) Now my friend expects the same treatment - from me- he tried to wake me up today ... I just pulled the blanket over my head. I will definitely submit my cat to the 'spa treatment' in the future from Aaron.”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was little. I’m currently a registered nurse. I love when the therapy animals come by, probably more than the patients do! I am mostly available on weekends and some days during the week! I am an RN so my schedule is pretty flexible. I’m off on weekends and holidays! On days that I do work, I’m off usually around 5pm. I am able to spend as much time needed on drop-in days as your pet needs. I will not rush them to eat or go outside.

About: Hi! I’m a dedicated animal lover with over five years of experience caring for pets, and I’d love the opportunity to care for your cat. I’ve always dreamed of having a cat of my own, but because of my current living situation and graduate school commitments, I’m not able to adopt one right now. Cat sitting is the perfect way for me to spend time with these amazing animals while giving them the love, attention, and care they deserve.

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!! 🐈⬛

“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.”

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 :)
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, turkeys 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. I also have a completely seperate room that can be used if they prefer even less human contact. ***PLEASE send a collar and leash when boarding a dog 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.

“I have never used Rover before, but Janece and Matthew put my mind at ease! They did a wonderful job taking care of our two Goldens, including a 4-month-old puppy. Their communication and responsiveness was great, and I enjoyed getting pictures and updates throughout the day. We will definitely book with Janece and Matthew again!”

“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”

“Taco had a GREAT time!!! Caroline provided pictures throughout the day along with updates of how he was doing. It was a comfort knowing that Taco was in such good hands. I would highly recommend using Caroline -except if it’s a day we want to leave Taco with her!’? We will definitely use Caroline every time we come to Columbia-which will be often over the next few years!!!! Thanks again Caroline-Taco Can’t wait to see you again!!!’”

Through feeding, walking, playtime, grooming, and companionship, I’ve learned how to understand dogs’ needs and make them feel comfortable and safe. While I’m new to Rover, I’ve taken care of my family’s and friends dogs on multiple occasions. I’m responsible, attentive, and committed to treating every pet with the same care and patience I give my own dogs.

I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own and do everything I can to make them feel comfortable while you’re away.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was little, growing up my grandma had a lot of dogs which started my love for them. I have taken care of many stray dogs around my area, i’ve also dog sitted for many local people in my hometown neighborhood. I’ve handled cats, rabbits, horses, and even turtles lol. Small or big , Reptile or mammal I love them all unconditionally :). I currently just got out of the military, so my schedule is always free. I’m available monday-friday maybe even during the weekend. I don’t really take too many trips so I could be available during holidays as well. I have a fenced in backyard where your fur baby is free to play whenever. I have 3 fur babies of my own, very friendly to other animals and they love to play. I also interact with them outside daily so if your fur baby loves to play he or she will have lots of company to do so.
“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.”

“Daisy is SO KIND, she’s very attentive to your pet and treats them like family. And she’s very willing to work with your schedule. Next time I’m in Columbia I will be using her again, thank you daisy for your kindness, you’re wonderful!”

“I am very impressed with Daniel! He and Bentley got along beautifully and Max proved to be a good doggie friend. Daniel has a very calm demeanor and sweet disposition- Bentley became attached immediately since he is rather calm. Daniel took exceptional care and responded quickly to my silly check-ins during the day. I highly recommend Daniel!”

“I feel so fortunate that found Katheryn to watch Blue while I work in Columbia, South Carolina. She's so sweet with Blue, flexible and reliable, I highly rerecommend her and will use her any time I'm working in the area.”

“First time dog parent. First time Rover app user. So glad Monty & I connected with Raquel. From first point of contact, meet and greet, day one and day two of doggy care was absolutely amazing. Raquel is a genuine, authentic, dog care provider. Communication ✅. Care Expectations Met ✅. Very Responsive✅. Professional✅. Personable✅. She’s passionate about caring for dogs and it is shown through her attentiveness to the well-being of dogs while under her care. Raquel’s sitter etiquette is superb. To see her love on Monty at drop-off and pick up gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was being left in good hands. To make things even better she shared updates via pics and videos throughout the day on each doggy daycare visit. Hands down, we’ll be re-booking Raquel. #RaquelROCKS ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Omgosh! Michelle was our hero the weekend of my nephews wedding! Newly relocated to the Charleston area, we knew no one to watch our pup while we went to Savannah for the wedding. We found Michelle in Savannah, and she was wonderful!! So sweet and loving to our 10year old poodle bichon, and he seemed to be comfortable with her and her place right away. If you're looking for the perfect dog sitter, look no further, Michelle is your gal.”

We will definitely have her watch Luna in the future! She went above and beyond and took wonderful care of our little girl! I could tell she had a blast hanging out! Thank you so much! ?”

“First timer using rover, Janece and Matthew did am amazing job with my baby. Daily pictures and updates. She definitely had a vacation also. Will definitely book again very soon!!!”

“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!”

“Yua is a fantastic sitter and my dog loves coming here so much that he pulls to go back during my walks with him around the neighborhood! The consistent daily updates, good communication, and photos are very appreciated.”

“Kathy was great! She took wonderful care of my dog while my partner and I were on vacation overseas. She has several sweet natured dogs and my dog had so much fun playing with them. Kathy also sent daily updates with sweet photos and videos. I would recommend her to anyone who needs a safe place to leave their pet.”


“Tony has watched my dog, Saint, twice now, and I couldn’t be happier with the care he’s provided. I’m new to using Rover and I’m extremely thankful that I found Tony. So much so that I refuse to look for any other sitter. He’s been pleasant to work with, trustworthy, and always makes me feel confident that Saint is in great hands. One thing I really appreciate is the updates. Every picture Tony sends, Saint looks genuinely happy, relaxed, and comfortable, which gives me so much peace of mind while I’m away. It’s obvious that Saint enjoys spending time with him. I truly appreciate Tony’s flexibility as I venture out of town pretty often. Whether Saint is there with others or just as the only guest, he’s always well cared for and comes home happy. I highly recommend Tony to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”

“This was our first experience with Rover and we were two nervous fur parents. Nontombe picked up our pets on Christmas Day (that is up and above service for sure). Our babies were immediately drawn to her. She updated us daily with pictures and videos of our babies having a great time. My husband was sure that our Milo would not want to come back home with us because he was cheesing in every picture she sent. We had the best experience and our pets were treated with much care and love. We will definitely use Nontombe's services in the future! We highly recommend her as a pet-loving amazing caregiver.”

“This was my doggies third stay with Michael. As always, everything was great. My babies always have a great time when they stay with him. I can’t recommend him enough!!! Thanks for everything.”

“Thank you, Savannah! Opie had a quick overnight trip with Savannah and Chandler. Very responsive. Easy peasy and Opie is a happy camper. Appreciate the happy home with a playmate for Opie to stay at.”

“Assatta was amazing I am so grateful for her! She treated my dog like her own and that's all I ask for. She made sure to keep me updated with videos and pictures. I will definitely be booking again!”

“Andrea was fantastic, very communicative, and extremely patient. We were late picking up our dog, but she was very understanding. 10/10, will request again for sure.”

“Eileen was great! Provided video and photo updates the entire time to let me know how Sully was doing which I was very appreciative. Would definitely use her again for any pet sitting!”

“Kristin was wonderful with our 2 girls from the start. She was very responsive and thorough with our inquiries, and came to our house to meet us and our girls prior to our trip, which meant a lot to us and we really appreciated it. She took great care of Heidi and Bianca while we were out of town, and sent us feedback, pics &/or videos every day. There were no delays when we contacted her with a question or status update. We were super pleased with Kristin and the care she took with our girls, and we will definitely use her again! Thank you Kristin!”

About: Hello, I'm Logan S. and I would love to be your dog’s next sitter! I know how important it is to feel confident your dog is being taken care of while you're away from home as I have my own. While you're away I'll send pictures and text updates so you know how your dog is doing. I have experience in all different breeds and am very confident in my ability to care for yours. There’s two people and a dog in the house, he’s a one year old golden retriever who loves to play and meet new friends. Thank you for your consideration and I look forward to meeting your furry friend! There’s usually two days out of the week where nobody will be home during the afternoon as I will be at work. If this affects your dogs stay I will let you know ahead of time if it’s okay. Each pet has individual needs that I am able to provide. Ensuring the animals safety is top priority and I have experience with very young animals and older ones as well. To help in this let me know of any special concerns or circumstances I need to know.
“Lindsey and Aaron were awesome and took great care of our little loved ones! They communicate well, send plenty of pics and regular updates. I highly recommend them for anyone needing to have a safe "temporary home" for their pets while away, they're the best!! Thank you!”

“Paola was amazing! She treated both my girls like furry princesses. She made me feel welcomed and relaxed the moment we met! During the puppy vacation Paola sent me daily pictures and videos. My pups had a great time! 10/10 would recommend”
