“Lexie is the best!! She is our go-to sitter in Columbia. She’s very attentive to both of our dogs and goes out of her way to ensure they get safe socialization with the other dogs. She even gave them a special treat for Thanksgiving. I can tell that they enjoy staying with her and the other dogs based on their excitement when we pick them up. Thank you for everything, Lexie!!”
“Therio and family were great with my girl! They took her on walks updated pics with me and spoiled her! Even Apollo enjoyed her company. Thanks for keeping Olivia last minute.”
“Very friendly, lots of pics and updates, and most important... They were patient with my spoiled mutt. They were just as friendly as they were professional. Definitely recommend them in high esteem.”
“We invited Kathy to meet Mikobefore we all made final decision and our Miko fell in love! Kathy was awesome regarding staying in touch with us with pictures and text messages while Miko was at her house! Miko loved being there and made friends and gained a buddy! Our hearts were are so grateful for Kathy and we were able to relax on our vacation knowing Miko was well cared for, safe and happy! We would highly recommend Kathy if you are looking for a sitter who will take great care of your pet, show them lots of love and attention and stay in touch! She is very sweet and we are blessed to have found her on “Rover”’”
“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.”
“Niagara was an awesome sitter that took excellent care of our two older pups on pretty short notice. We appreciated the daily updates and photos she provided Definitely recommend and would be happy to book with Niagara again in the future!”
“Veronica is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! My dog was so comfortable with her and I could enjoy my time away knowing she was well taken care of. I received regular updates and pictures and Veronica immediately let me know when she suspected my dog had a UTI. She even made little treats for the dogs for Thanksgiving (she did ask permission to give them first). ❤️ Will absolutely be booking with her again.”
“This is our second time staying with Jud and Nicole, and they are absolutely AMAZING! They are such patient, friendly, dog-loving people, and your dog will no doubt have a vacation of their own! My dog is very hyper, and they handle her so well, and always send lots of pictures and updates. Stay with them if you can!!!!”
“Monica and Christopher were awesome. I was able to book extremely short notice and I got tons of updates and pictures! I had a nervous baby, and they took her in without questions and within the first night I had pictures of my "nervous" kid playing, cuddling, and smiling like she was home!”
“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!”
“Jenny was fantastic. She kept me abreast of things while keeping Daisy. Easy to work with and Daisy seemed to really have enjoyed being there and playing with the other dogs. Will definitely be booking Jenny again next time we travel.”
“I cannot say enough great things about Celia! Maggie is very skittish around new people and needs time to warm up. She likes to come to you on her own terms until she's comfortable. Celia completely respected that and now Maggie loves her to death. She actually whined when we picked her up! We're so glad we found someone that we can trust with our girl!”
“Kasey was amazing!! I needed a sitter last minute and she was more than accommodating! She is very communicative and sends lots of pictures and updates, which made me feel more at ease. I would highly recommend her!”
“So happy! My dog was able to experience comfort and excitement while on my trip .. Ms. Nikki constantly sent photos and videos and informed me about the changes in my dog. Thank you once again from myself and Marley !”
“This was the first time leaving Cher Chee anywhere except a Kennel. Margie made me feel relaxed and Chee Chee took to her right away. We were gone a week and I felt certain she was in good hands. I will definitely use her again.”
“She took great care of my fur babies and was able to accommodate all their needs! She has a great yard and plenty of space for multiple dogs. My dogs came back happy and healthy, they seemed like they had a great time.”
“Our baby girl is always so happy to visit Sally. It’s like her home away from home. I can always enjoy my time away with the knowledge that Ginger is getting the best care. ❤️”

“Jada was so helpful! Checking on our cat and sending updates during the booked dates. She made our time away much less stressful, with not having to worry about our pet at home.”
“Nour is a gem! She is an experienced cat caregiver, but we feel very comfortable having her look after our dogs, too! She sent us wonderful pictures of our kitties during her recent drop-ins. Even our most shy cat came out to play while she was here, which really impressed us. We feel very fortunate to have found Nour, and so relieved that we have found someone so professional and caring to look after our kiddos while we are away!”

She not only took care our fur babies but she also makes sure to give you a detailed report on every visit which brings a sense of comfort! I definitely recommend her!”

“Hannah was absolutely incredible! She was attentive, followed all of my directions, and was always quick to respond if I had any questions. She arrived right on time for every visit and made sure Biscuit felt safe and comfortable. I would love to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter!”
“Cory & Stacey were Great! They treated our cats as if they were their own. Their daily comments reflected the careful attention they paid to them. And the pictures taken always helped to reassure us that the cats were in great hands. We will definitely ask for them the next time we need them!”
“Heidi did a fantastic job while my husband and I were out of town. My kitties were happy and fed. I got daily pictures of them. I will be using Heidi in the future and recommend her to anyone on Rover.”
“We used Jade as a sitter for the first time for a weekend trip. She took the time to find all 4 cats on each visit, including the shy ones. She sent photos and updates each visit. We will definitely schedule with her again!”
About: I’ve been passionate about caring for dogs and cats since I was a teenager. Growing up, I frequently pet sat for family members and close family friends, building a strong foundation in understanding pets’ individual needs and personalities. Over the years, I’ve gained professional experience working at several doggy daycares, where I managed groups of dogs, ensured their safety and comfort, and helped them enjoy playtime and socialization. I’ve also provided in-home pet sitting for multiple clients over the past few years, handling everything from daily feedings, walks, and medication administration to play, cuddles, and lots of love. I truly enjoy forming bonds with each pet and giving owners peace of mind while they’re away. Pet sitting is my full-time profession, which means I offer flexible and open availability to accommodate your schedule and your pet’s needs. Whether you require drop-in visits or daily walks I’m here to provide reliable support—often with little notice. Your peace of mind and your pet’s happiness are my top priorities! When caring for pets in your home, my top priority is making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while maintaining your home exactly as you left it. Upon arrival, I follow your detailed instructions to the letter—feeding schedules, medication administration, walking routes, play preferences, and any special routines. I provide plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection tailored to your pet’s personality and energy level, whether that’s energetic fetch sessions, gentle cuddles, or quiet companionship. I send regular updates with photos and/or videos so you can see your pet is happy and relaxed. I also keep an eye on your pet’s health and behavior, and I’m prepared to contact you or an emergency vet if anything seems off. For your home, I’m respectful and tidy: I secure doors and windows, bring in mail/packages if requested, water plants, take out trash, and leave everything clean and organized. My goal is for you to return to a happy pet and a home that feels untouched—giving you complete peace of mind while you’re away.
“Ally is super quick to respond and has been willing to come check on my kitties at the last minute! She takes great care of them, making sure to do everything I ask and going above and beyond to give them love and attention.”
About: While I love all animals, cats hold a special place in my heart. I get cats, and they get me. I have a weird knack for finding cats everywhere I go (or they find me?). Cats who bite and scratch are charming to me. I have four cats at home and many cat clients whom I love. I'd love to add yours to my list.

“Lexie was great with communication. Huck had a great day with the other dogs! I appreciated that she rinsed him off before I picked him up too. He had fun in the run and got a bit dirty. :). Loved the horses, goats and chickens. Will use again- only drawback is location isn’t very close to my home.”
“They are absolutely great! We are doing the day care, and the first night Comet (my super SUPER high energy dog) came home tired! He had all day to play and run around. They have a great space for the dogs. Highly recommend! They sent me updates and kept me informed as well.”
“Michael and his wife were awesome! They instantly made us feel comfortable. They had a few other dogs to watch but all was managed well! Michael communicated well throughout the day. Our dog came home happy and tired :)”
“Teia had a great time and came home ready for a nap. Lyndsay sent beautiful pictures which we will treasure. And really appreciate her flexibility and agreeing to our last minute request for daycare. See you soon!”
“Qais was very flexible with my changing schedule. He did a great job watching my dog Marge and gave regular updates throught the day. I would definitely let him watch her in the future.”
“Margie took awesome care of our puppy, Jasper. He has separation anxiety, but he was happy to stay with Margie, and when we returned to pick him up, he was glad to see us but was running back to Margie as well, clearly content to be with her too. The backyard is great for small dogs to be safe and play, and the house is very clean. I am very glad to have found Margie since Jasper is not happy staying home alone. He is looking forward to his next stay!”
About: My husband and I have raised our border collie/husky mix together from 6 weeks of age and she is one of our biggest blessings! I love dogs because of her and see them as a member of the family. Would love to help take care of yours! Currently in between jobs—I’m a physician assistant—so I have extra time to fill! Happy to have dogs over to play with Panda during the day or help with walks and potty breaks! We have a fenced back yard here at our house. For walks I would want a retractable leash and follow any special instructions you have!
About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life, I’ve grown up with just about every type of animal from small to large, I’ve worked at dog rehabilitation centers, I’ve been a dog groomer for over 12 years (still grooming out of my home) I’ve worked as a vet tech in multiple veterinary clinics as well. I’m a professional groomer that works from home, my kiddos do home school, so my daily routine is usually about the same lol I groom just about every day, and also occasionally board for my long term clients With me working from home and having my kiddos home, I would absolutely prefer your pet to be dropped off and picked up, your pet will have the opportunity to play with my personal dogs, get to go outside plenty of times and also have that human interaction as well rather then being in a kennel/run for hours on end before getting let out to go potty.
About: I love dogs and care passionately they are having a fun and safe time when with me, which is why so many of my friends and families throughout the years have asked me to take care of their loved ones!

“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!”

“Nicole is dependable and would definitely use her again. She helped let me know that my dog was having urinary issues too so I could make a vet appointment for the next day and avoid an emergency vet”
About: Am i a crazy cat lady? Maybe. Do I want to pet all the puppers? Possibly. I have had cats and dogs my entire life, many adopted strays, ferals, and fosters (cats and dogs). My current clowder consists of four cats. I am pretty flexible and typically available to care for your pets while you are at the office, out for the evening, or enjoying a weekend getaway. Having recently moved to South Carolina my four cats are in my home out of state with family until I buy a house here. I miss my furry companions and look forward to befriending yours. A little about some of recent challenges I've worked through with my pets: While I only have my four cats currently, I recently had a fifth cat and beagle cross the rainbow bridge. Both were adoptions who came to me with health issues. I got Maggie, my beagle, when she was eight. She had a tumor which caused seizures but lived another 7 happy years with me. Garfield, my cat, was five and came to me with an inoperable hernia, blood disorder, and weighing 25lbs! He was a big boy, but I worked to get him down to a healthy weight of 18 pounds and lived to be 11. Of the four cats I have currently, two were ferals and two were strays. It has taken a lot of work and patience, but all four are docile and fairly trusting of humans.
About: I’ve owned animals since a young child and love them! I am first aid and CPR certified and dedicated to providing safety and comfort to any animals I visit. I love animals and your pets are safe with me! I work flexible hours and can easily handle any requests! I can accommodate most anything you or your pets would need. I am centrally located and efficient as well. I have a fenced yard and one dog that is used to others. My home is a safe space for animals. My yard is safe, clean and a great space to run and play in.
About: I have been around pets all my life. Volunteered as a foster mom for the humane society and took home pets that needed medication given to them. Been around active dogs like Dalmatians and Australian Shepherds as well as older, docile dogs. Did puppy training classes when I raised my Australian shepherd. I work full time so if you request a booking with me I may send you back a message with the hours I work during that time frame. I've also lowered my rates below Rovers "suggested" numbers and made it to where you can "potentially" book me last minute (If my schedule works for you, obviously). I would love to be that sitter that is helping out someone who maybe had a sitter cancel at the last minute or you had an unexpected event happen and didn't really have it in the budget to hire a pet sitter on top of everything else. Or you are just a frugal gal/guy like me and don't think it should break the bank to hire someone to watch your fur children 😊 I can crate your pets when needed, take them on walks, can administer medications if needed. I work well with lists or rules set out to follow for your pets best care in your home.
About: I will love your pet like I love my own. Growing up there has always been a pet in my home, including dogs, a cat, and even a bird, so naturally, I love animals. I enjoy all sizes of pets, dog or cat. I will make sure that your pet is taken care of and played with. I love to walk dogs because it gets both, the dog and I, up and moving and it is always a good time with a dog. I also love to give dogs baths and brush them because they always seem to love it too. I hope your dog will love me just as much as I love them. My number one priority is to make sure your pet is happy, safe, and taken care of. Right now, I work a weird schedule with my job so day time availability changes but I’m always available before and after work on the weekdays. Weekends differ just depending on my plans. :) I have been a dog and cat sitter multiple times in others homes. I make sure all of the pets needs are taken care of including feeding, watering, letting out, crating, etc. I am also careful to not mess anything up inside or outside the home

About: I have worked with all sorts of breeds as well as fostered and rehabilitated many dogs as well. I am a very loving and caring dog owner and will always do my best to care for any dog I come across. Just please let me know if your dog is dog friendly! This is not a must, just a courtesy. Hope to play with your pup soon. Fetch, swimming, kayaking, amongst many other things are activities I’d be more than happy to do with your pup. You just say what they love and off we go! Raw diet? No problem! I have dealt with this in the past and I am no stranger to preparing a meal your pup will be sure to really enjoy!
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who grew up in a family full of pets, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I have experience pet sitting for family and friends, and I’ve also taken three veterinary courses in high school, which helped me learn more about animal health and behavior. I offer dog walking and drop-in visits for small to medium-sized dogs, and I always make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to make your pup feel just as loved as one of my 3 babies! I’m currently a full-time online student, which gives me a flexible schedule throughout the day. While I do set aside a few hours for schoolwork and caring for my own pets, I have plenty of availability for drop-in visits and dog walks. This flexibility allows me to be reliable and consistent when it comes to caring for your pets and making sure they get the attention they deserve! When caring for your pets, their comfort and safety always come first. During drop-in visits, I like to start by giving them time to get familiar with me at their own pace, allowing them to approach and feel comfortable before interacting. Once they’re relaxed, I’ll give them plenty of love and attention, check that they have fresh food and water, and clean up any accidents if needed. I’m happy to play with them if they’re interested and will always make sure dogs are let out for a potty break before I leave. For walks, I bring water to keep pups hydrated, clean up after them, and can provide treats with your approval. I always use positive reinforcement and make sure your pet returns home safe, happy, and well cared for before I head out.
“Heidi accepted a last minute booking for my two pups. She was kind, punctual, and did a great job with them. She responded to my questions in a timely manner. I appreciate her helping with my fur babies.”
“Jeffrey was a very dependable dog walker; walked and fed and watered our dogs on schedule; we would recommend him to others. We received text messages and photos for each of his 16 walks - twice a day for 8 days.”
About: *Update: My Toby passed away and I haven’t deleted him from my profile. My heart is broken😢 Now that my children are gone and my Toby is, I want to use all my years of taking care of pets to fill a void. Believe me, your pet will get more than all my attention while at your home. I grew up in Southern California and I love to take my dogs on walking/hiking adventures. I will follow any instructions that you have. I know what it was like to leave my Toby, so I want you to feel as comfortable as possible. My phone is always next to me, so any photos or videos? Just ask! I actually should have been a dog photographer! I’m looking forward to meeting your family and giving both of you a memorable and lasting experience...hopefully over the years I would love to become part of your family! *Also, If you are in need of any extra duties, please let me know. I’m one stop shopping, I’m here to help! I look forward to meeting you! Martha I have plenty of time to give to your pup. I will stick to any schedule that you have and give as much exercise that they need or want need
About: About Me: I grew up in a animal-loving home. My mom worked at a vet and I spent my days with her. I’ve always been around animals. When I turned 16, I started working at the same vet my mom worked at as a veterinarian assistant. I took care of the animals in the kennel and assisted the veterinarians. My family moved to the Columbia area and I’m looking to continue my work with animals. My experience allows me to give your pets the best experience while your away. I know how to give medication properly even with pets who struggle with it (including insulin shots). I am not afraid of messy situations; trust me have cleaned up worst. I love all pets including seniors or pets with disabilities and strive to give every pet the best care possible. Services: I’m not available Monday-Friday 4 pm to 11 pm due to my other job, however I’m able to care of your fur babies within the hours I’m free. I do ask that you schedule me at least 1 day in advance in order to prepare for services. Please let me know 3 days before if you need to cancel. Of course, I do know emergencies come up so I’m willing to work with you. I will love to meet you and your fur babies in a pre-visit before any services so we can make sure we are a good fit for each other and learn everything I need in order to give you to pet the best care (ex: daily routines, likes and dislikes, etc).
“Gracie was a phenomenal sitter! Gracie was a pleasure to work with. She was great with communicating and reliable. She did such an excellent job taking care of my Dasher that I am hoping to get her again for the future.”
About: I love all animals! I am a graduate student and have lots of experience taking care of dogs of all breeds and sizes, as well as cats. I believe it is important for a caregiver to not only have the love for pets, but to have the ability to love each pet as their own. It is my priority to go above and beyond to ensure that they remain happy and healthy. I am mainly looking to spend time throughout the day walking dogs, taking them to the park, and/or feeding and taking care of them as needed. Some days are busier than others and it feels as if there aren't enough hours in a day to give your pets the love they need. I am more than happy to help with whatever you need when it comes to your furry friends! I just moved to this area and have some free time until my new job starts. I am very communicative when it comes to scheduling and flexibility! I have a fenced in yard and 3 very friendly dogs that I have had experience with for over 10 years. I enjoy walks, car rides, and ice cream dates depending on your preference for your pet
About: I have always been there and helped family and friends take care of their fur babies while away for vacation or emergencies of any kind. Looking to do this full time! I am available every day of the week! During holiday and summer breaks I will have my daughter with me to assist me. Your pet(s) will be in great hands while you are away! I will send updates and pictures on how your pet(s) while I am there. I offer playtime and walks. I can also help teach basic commands or potty training.
“Pam is awesome—so communicative, responds quickly, and really watches after Renzo like he were her own pup! She is always timely and let’s me know well ahead of time if we need to make any changes to the schedule. Even though Pam has to take Renzo out in the heat of the day, she always finds something for him safe to do. Pam is Renzo’s regular walker and I wouldn’t have it any other way!”

“Lexie is the best!! She is our go-to sitter in Columbia. She’s very attentive to both of our dogs and goes out of her way to ensure they get safe socialization with the other dogs. She even gave them a special treat for Thanksgiving. I can tell that they enjoy staying with her and the other dogs based on their excitement when we pick them up. Thank you for everything, Lexie!!”

“We invited Kathy to meet Mikobefore we all made final decision and our Miko fell in love! Kathy was awesome regarding staying in touch with us with pictures and text messages while Miko was at her house! Miko loved being there and made friends and gained a buddy! Our hearts were are so grateful for Kathy and we were able to relax on our vacation knowing Miko was well cared for, safe and happy! We would highly recommend Kathy if you are looking for a sitter who will take great care of your pet, show them lots of love and attention and stay in touch! She is very sweet and we are blessed to have found her on “Rover”’”
“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.”
“Jenny was fantastic. She kept me abreast of things while keeping Daisy. Easy to work with and Daisy seemed to really have enjoyed being there and playing with the other dogs. Will definitely be booking Jenny again next time we travel.”
“Kasey was amazing!! I needed a sitter last minute and she was more than accommodating! She is very communicative and sends lots of pictures and updates, which made me feel more at ease. I would highly recommend her!”
“She took great care of my fur babies and was able to accommodate all their needs! She has a great yard and plenty of space for multiple dogs. My dogs came back happy and healthy, they seemed like they had a great time.”
“Our baby girl is always so happy to visit Sally. It’s like her home away from home. I can always enjoy my time away with the knowledge that Ginger is getting the best care. ❤️”

“Review was left on previous booking but Micheal and his home were amazing and it made me book 2 additional nights just for my Frost to enjoy herself there longer and because they loved frost so much and wanted to keep her longer also!”
“Sebastian was amazing with my Marley. He was very attentive and very personable. He sent us updates everyday and was a pleasure to work with. We will only trust him from now on with our Marley.”

“Glenn was amazing with my pup. Never felt more comfortable with my dog being a sitter the first time. We came in from out of time. If I lived in the area I would try to get Glenn every time for my pet sitting needs. Book him!”
