“Merrell took great care of Fitz, and he came home tired and happy. We appreciated the communication and pictures each day. We’ll definitely ask Merrell to watch him again!”
“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.”
“Evelyn took great care of Bash and provided updates throughout his stay! He enjoyed his time with the family and playing with Smokey as well! They definitely will have a returning client!”
“Kayla was so sweet and attentive to my 10 yr old shih tzu Taco. He had recently injured his leg and was awaiting a surgical consult. So, she was careful with his activity level. She also gave his seizure medication 3 times a day. He looked happy and well cared for in all the photo updates she sent me.”
“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!”
“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!”
“This is my first time using a private sitter & it went okay. My dog Kobe is adjusting to being home, I’m military & Aiko was very patient with him despite his not so great behavior towards others dogs. She kept me updated with detailed information about his behavior along with pictures for the weekend stay. She gave my dog the attention he needed & let me know what she thought would be best for him moving forward. You should definitely book her if you need a dog sitter.”
“Yua and her family gave my fur baby loving attention during her boarding stay with them. She was taken on multiple walks during each day, an activity that Bella loves to do. When I need boarding services again, I will definitely choose Yua.”
“We met Becky and introduced our pet. We had very much planned to have her keep our dog but at the last minute our plans changed. Becky was very understanding. We very much do plan on working with her to keep our pet.”
“Kathy was great with my dogs. Good communication and pictures while I was away. She took my dogs last minute because of a family emergency and I’m very grateful. Will definitely contact her again for boarding.”
“Nontombe did an absolutely phenomenal job with our two dogs. This is my first experience using Rover and she represented well. My dogs loved her, and she kept us informed on a daily basis with pics and videos. Thank you so much Nontombe!”
“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.”
About: I have had a dog (childhood puppy at home) my whole life and she is my best friend! I have fostered multiple puppies, some who aren’t potty trained, and have experience overnight sitting. My roommates also love to have furry friends around! I am a full time graduate student with a part time job, but will be home a lot and love to get exercise walking. I also have 5 other roommates who would be happy to help out if I am busy with class. I have a front patio for quality outside time, but it is not fenced. I will be outside with your pet whenever we hang out on the patio, otherwise we will be inside.
“Assatta was great ! She communicated with me throughout Tyreek’s stay with pictures and let me know how he was adjusting. Her dog is a sweetheart and when I picked Tyreek up he was happy and worn out. Will definitely be booking with Assatta again!”

“Natalie is very professional and reliable in completing requested tasks. Her communications after providing care were informative and detailed as needed. I definitely highly recommend Natalie and will use her again.”
“When my train from the West Coast was unexpectedly canceled during a two-week visit there, forcing me to find another train that would get me back to S.C. two days later than planned, Moe helped me out without hesitation. She took care of Sebastian, my cat, with the same care and love she gives to her own pets. She also took care of other needs that impacted Sebastian, such as restoring power to the TV channel my cat watches after a power outage, and notifying me of water damage inside the home after a severe thunderstorm. Moe has proven time and again why she is a Star Sitter. She always goes above and beyond her duties to make sure your pet is safe and sound.”
“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.”
“Becky did an absolutely amazing job of caring my for cat! She was prompt and responsible, communicated well, and won my shy girl over almost immediately. I received detailed texts and pictures with every visit, and when I had questions, she responded incredibly quickly. You will not find a more reliable and conscientious pet sitter in Columbia: she's fantastic. I recommend Becky wholeheartedly!”
“Christina was awesome! She arrived on time and was very receptive to this last minute request. She followed up to make sure instructions were given for feeding and provided updates daily. I would definitely book her again!”
“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!”
About: I’ve also owned a cat and have a little 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.
“Rachel is amazing! Would highly recommend her to anyone in the area. I love seeing her photos of our cats and her write up after every visit. You can tell she genuinely cares for your animals.”
“We left our cat, Moses, in Aaron’s care for 31 days. When we returned, Moses was well fed and well hydrated. Now that we are back home, I think Moses misses Aaron more than missed us! 😊 Aaron not only cared for our cat, he provided kindness and love. I could tell from the photos Aaron sent after every visit that Moses was comfortable being around him. Thank you Aaron, we will 100% contact when we leave for our next extended vacation.”
About: Cats are my specialty and biggest passion. I have extensive hands-on experience caring for cats through rescue volunteering and fostering, including neonatal kittens and adult cats with medical needs. I’m very comfortable reading feline behavior and adjusting to each cat’s personality, whether they’re shy, independent, or social and playful. I always aim to keep their routine consistent and make them feel safe and at ease while you’re away. 🐾
“Lexi was absolutely fantastic with our Cali girl. We were worried she would hide the entire time but Lexi was patient and won her over. We got videos, lots of pictures and a the daily diary was great. We will for sure use Lexi again.”
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!! 🐈⬛

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!

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.
“Daisy is the very best! My puppy Shiloh had the best time playing with Piper and the other pups. Daisy sent frequent messages, photos, and videos to keep me updated throughout the day. I recommend Daisy to anyone looking for pet care!”
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 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.
“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!”
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 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.

About: I grew up surrounded by dogs my entire life and have always treated them with all love and care. Dogs and cats both and all kinds. I am a college student using my free time to care for animals, so in between classes, after, and before I’ll be using my time to dog walk, etc. How I care for my pets at home is by giving them attention by playing with them, taking them on long enjoyable walks, making sure they are eating the best and are healthy.
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.
“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.”
“Highly recommended! She kept me updated with Nina most of the day & she sent me pictures of her throughout the day. Great communication and very professional. Me and Nina appreciate you”
“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 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“I can’t say enough good things about our experience with Lexie with Stoney Horse Acres. From the moment we dropped off our Chloe , it was clear that they truly love and understand animals. They took amazing care of Chloe sending regular updates and photos so we could relax knowing our pup was happy and safe. When we picked her up, Chloe was calm, and clearly well-loved. The facilities were comfortable, and it’s obvious that Lexie goes above and beyond to make each dog feel at home. We’ll absolutely be coming back next time we travel — highly recommend to anyone looking for top-notch care!”
“Chad was great and sully loved his time staying with him and his dog Sandy. Easy to communicate with and provided regular updates. Would highly recommend and will be using Chad for future stays!”
“This is the second time we have booked with Shannon and we will book again! Our dog is excited to be there and happy when we pick her up! Shannon has been great about sending updates and was very accommodating with our travel schedule. We are very happy to have found her!”
“Kristin was really helpful and patient when I needed a last minute booking. She sent updates and adorable pictures. Potato Chip got lots of attention and I was able to travel without worry knowing everything was going smoothly!”
“Susan was great with Buster and Finn. 2nd visit for Buster our older Jack Russell and first visit for Finn our 5 year old Labradoodle. Very well adjusted when I picked them up and pictures from Susan off and on through the stay. When I left she recommended the best way to leave to help Buster with any separation anxiety and it worked beautifully. Definitely recommend Susan.”
“Sally is amazing! My dog had a great time staying with her. Sally is attentive, responsive, and caring. The next time I’m in need of a sitter I will definitely go back to Sally. Thank you so much!”
“When our dog sitter canceled the day before we were to leave, Someone recommended Rover. I was hesitant, but I found Sabastian and was happy with his bio. He responded immediately and agreed to get our dog the next day. I am so thankful to them. He and his family took such good care of our baby. He sent us pictures throughout the stay and reassured everything was great and our dog was enjoying thier dogs. Our dog was well taken care of and healthy and happy when we picked him up. Sabastian was very welcoming and kind to us and our dog and I am so thankful that we found him. We will definitely use him again.”
