“Joy was amazing. I was so nervous to leave my senior dog who is riddled with anxiety. Joy made me feel SO much better with her updates and when I picked up my dog after a week, she was as happy as a 14 year old can be. It's clear she has a passion for caring for animals. 11/10. Thank you, Joy!”
“Dara was the absolute best for my two girls! Our Sunshine has separation anxiety and every picture we received from Dara, our Sunny girl looked to be enjoying every minute of her stay! She was super awesome with our no limit soldier Scout as well. She kept our babies for 5 days and they were wore slam out from their fun stay. You can 100% tell Dara has a heart for animals. Our go-to from now on!!!!”
“My babies absolutely loved her! My Maxx requires a complex medicine routine to include insulin shots, treatment for glaucoma, blindness and vestibular disease and a strict feeding routine. She handled it like a champ in addition to caring for my Lady Poo too. My go to person from now on!”
“Jessie had the BEST time at Carrie and Kurt’s, I got updates and videos of all the dogs playing together throughout the day!! We will definitely use them again!!!”
“Anne did a great job watching my dog Allie. In fact, I forgot to give her medicine for Allie, and she took the time to run to the pharmacy to get it. I will definitely use her again.”
“Ashley was great! Chang looked like he was having a great time in his pictures that she sent to me. I’m very appreciative of her being comfortable with Chang being old and having several issues. I will definitely be using her again!”
“Absolutely amazing! I loved the pictures and updates. Rocky was well taken care of, and the family is so sweet. They even sent home a Christmas present for him. Absolutely great, we will definitely book with them again!”
“Chino was well taken care of while I was away. Chino is shy and when I picked her up she did not seem shy at all with them, especially with Shannon's lovely daughter. I would recommend her and she also has a privacy fence surrounding her backyard, which put me at ease also.I would definitely ask for her services again!”
“Great sitter, sent daily updates and pictures, quick responses, and overall great communication. This was Maggie’s second stay with Heather and she seemed to have a great time. Highly recommended”

“We have truly been blessed to have found Ariel! She takes such great care of our fur babies any time we are away, especially our boy who needs daily medication. Ariel is truly a blessing 💜”
About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 14, so caring for animals has been a consistent and meaningful part of my life. What started with helping friends and neighbors has grown into a real passion for providing dependable, attentive care. I also have extensive experience with rescue dogs and cats. I’ve fostered through licensed rescues and taken in dogs and cats I’ve personally helped rescue, which has given me a strong understanding of different temperaments—from high-energy pups to more anxious dogs that need extra patience and trust. I currently have five rescue cats and four dogs of my own, so I’m very comfortable managing multiple pets while making sure each one gets the individual attention and care they deserve. My goal is simple: to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for—just like they would at home.
“Haley was absolutely amazing and took great care of our kitties while we were away! She gave great updates and was very thorough in her check ins with us. We would highly recommend her and will be booking services again!!!”
About: I currently have four dogs: two seven-year-old Cane Corsos, a rescued American Bully (estimated 10+ years old), and an eight-year-old retired Catahoula who, since his retirement, is more interested in my wife and food than anything else. I’ve been around dogs my whole life, and I’ve also handled canines in professional and official capacities. I often find myself the go-to person for friends and family when they have dog care questions. I’ve cared for pets of all kinds, including cats. I will care for your pets like they are my own. As a former police officer and certified firefighter, I bring an added level of safety and attention to every stay. Your pet’s well-being is my priority, but I also ensure your home is secure and small details, such as things others might overlook, are taken care of 110 percent. I can administer medications, handle pets with special needs, and provide a level of care and service above what’s typical, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. I can also handle deliveries that require signatures, escort service technicians or other personnel during appointments, and attend to anything else that may arise at your home while you’re away — providing a truly comprehensive level of service. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to focus on providing this high-end, comprehensive care. While my rates are higher than some on this app, they reflect the level of care, attention, and experience I provide — and I’m confident you’ll find the value well worth it. You don’t have to worry about any nightmare scenarios when I am in charge of your pets and home. Message me any time to check my availability. My schedule is very flexible and I likely can accommodate your needs almost anytime. I am quick to respond. Just let me know how I can help you! I can follow any directions that you have for your pets. I have travelled with dogs back and forth across the country. I can feed and walk and play with your pets. I have administered meds as well. I can care for pets an any stage in life. Also check out my about me section to see how I can be a safety multiplier for your pets and home while you are away.
About: I’ve worked in an animal shelter and have extensive experience caring for dogs of all breeds and temperaments. I’m a proud dog/cat mom and regularly help care for my parents’ three dogs as well. I have been on the rover app sitting for a little over 2 years now. I work full-time with a flexible schedule — I’m home on Mondays and Fridays and in the office Tuesday through Thursday, which allows me flexible hours to care for pets during the week. I have one dog and a cat I love more than anything! I’m also used to helping my parents with their dachshunds when they’re away, so caring for animals is part of my everyday life.
About: I've taken care of all breeds of animals for majority of my life. I love all animals and would love to get the chance to love and care for yours as i do my own! I currently work Monday-Saturday 3-5 hours daily. Im available to care for your furbaby at your place of residence & would love the chance to care for your baby while you enjoy time away! I have a big yard (unfenced) and playful Goldendoodles (1 year old & 2 years old) for your furbaby to enjoy! We love going on walks and fun-time at the dog park.
“Anne is absolutely amazing! We booked her last minute to check in on our 3 pups. She sent check in times, photos, and updates. We could not be happier with her services and our dogs will love to have Anne drop by again ???❤️”
About: I love any animal and always welcome any fur baby, temporary or permanent you can trust that your pet is in good hands! I have many years experience taking care of kittens, puppies, cats, dogs, horses, goats, birds, even reptiles. I actually had a Russian Tortoise as a pet for over 17 years....the only pet I couldn't really tolerate would be a Tarantula...never been to fond of the spiders. Snakes are on a fine line as well, if necessary i will care for a snake but its not a personal favorite i guess you can say. I always wanted to become a Veterinarian growing up as a child but instead i started a family at the age of 20...I now am the proud mama of 3 boys, 4 dogs, 3 cats, 1 new kitten and a fish!!!!!!
About: I have 3 dogs of my own. All different sizes. I have dog sat in house and have done drop buys all through out my high school and college years.

I have a huge yard that your pets can play in with my three other pups. I can walk on a leash and crate if needed.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Thicketty
“Thanks for always being so willing to accommodate our Kenzie at any given time! You have been such a big help to us this past week and any other time we have booked you! We appreciate you and your family for every bit of love you give her. And we both know she loves you guys just as much 💕”
About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 14, so caring for animals has been a consistent and meaningful part of my life. What started with helping friends and neighbors has grown into a real passion for providing dependable, attentive care. I also have extensive experience with rescue dogs. I’ve fostered through licensed rescues and taken in dogs I’ve personally helped rescue, which has given me a strong understanding of different temperaments—from high-energy pups to more anxious dogs that need extra patience and trust. I currently have four rescue dogs of my own, so I’m very comfortable managing multiple pets while making sure each one gets the individual attention and care they deserve. My goal is simple: to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for—just like they would at home. I currently work from home part-time, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pets in my care. I’m available throughout the week and on weekends for boarding and daycare services. For in-home sitting and dog walking, I’m available on Wednesdays and Saturdays. I do offer some flexibility with advance notice, so I’m happy to discuss specific dates or scheduling needs. Please feel free to reach out with any questions—I’m always glad to help coordinate what works best for you and your pet. Your pet’s safety always comes first in my care. I run a lively, dog-friendly home with multiple rescue dogs, so I’m very experienced in managing group dynamics, reading behavior, and making sure every dog is introduced properly and feels secure. I believe in letting dogs be dogs—getting to play, explore, and be part of a structured “pack” environment—while still maintaining clear boundaries and supervision at all times. I take introductions seriously and make sure each dog is comfortable before integrating them into the group. I’m crate-friendly and happy to follow your dog’s routine, whether that includes crating for rest, downtime, or safety. Each dog gets individual attention as well as safe social interaction, depending on their personality and needs. I have a large, secluded yard with natural tree lines, though it is not fenced. Because of that, dogs are never off-leash until I’m confident in their recall and comfort in the space. Until then, all outdoor time is supervised using a leash or long line so they can safely explore and burn energy. When caring for pets in your home, I keep their routine as consistent as possible and make sure they feel comfortable in their own space. At the end of the day, your dog isn’t just being watched—they’re being included, understood, and cared for as part of a well-managed, active environment.
“Sarah is truly an exceptional pet sitter and we cannot recommend her highly enough. She cared for our dog Turner in her own home every day for four weeks while I was overseas visiting family and my husband was working, and the level of love, professionalism, and dedication she showed was extraordinary. Turner came into her care recovering from bronchitis, and thanks to Sarah’s 25 years of experience with dogs, she was incredibly vigilant and consistent with his medication and overall health. She kept us constantly updated and gave us so much peace of mind with clear communication and frequent photos. We always knew exactly how Turner was doing. She went above and beyond to make Turner feel at home, giving him his own bed, toys, and a loving, calm environment. Turner also struggles with separation anxiety, and under Sarah’s care and guidance he made huge progress — even with leash walking, which was a big win for him! She took him on multiple walks every day, and he came home happy, relaxed, and excited to go back to her house, which says everything. I truly cannot express how grateful we are to Sarah for taking such beautiful care of a precious member of our family. If you are looking for someone you can completely trust with your dog’s wellbeing, safety, and happiness, Sarah is the one. We feel incredibly lucky to have found her!”
“Kashawana is excellent with Attie. Attie can’t wait to get out of the car when she realizes where she is. Kashawana is super accommodating and helped me out on short notice!”
“This was my first time booking with Ayaka for daycare services and already rebooked. She is responsive and communicative. Pictures and a video were sent to me to see how things went that day. He came home happy and tired. I felt he was safe and taken care of.”
About: I am home everyday all day long, have 6 years of fostering experience with a rescue and 16+ years caring for animals. I can take any dog no matter what size! We also have a fenced backyard, so your pup will be safe and happy here! We have 4 dogs (2 are 15, 2 are 5) and they love all dogs and will play and snuggle with their new friend. We have had 27+ fosters meet our dogs and they got along with every single one of them :) We live in Gaffney on 30 acres so small hikes and walks are possible, and we have a fenced yard for routine potty trips. I work from home every day and I have 4 dogs of my own, so your pup will fit in just fine here! We have fostered over 27 dogs over the last 5 years, and our dogs are very well behaved so if yours is very young and needs help potty training, they will learn quickly from my pack! I love the ability to be home everyday in a senior role at work, so I basically do a lot of independent work - which means I can throw the ball in our fenced yard, potty train, snuggle, and ensure your pup has a fantastic time!
“Andrea was wonderful with Daisy. We were coming from out of town & did a video chat prior to the stay so we could meet & see the area where Daisy would be. Daisy had a great time playing with Andrea’s dog & she was a very happy pup when we came to pick her up. We would use her again if we are back in the area.”

About: I'm a stay at home mother with a huge heart and endless patience for all dogs. We have a large fenced-in yard and many sofas and beds to sleep on. Our house is all hardwoods, so there's no issues if your dog has an accident. We have a whippet-coonhound who loves to play and chase squirrels in our backyard, but we have ways of separation if that is more convenient. And Tyson has been very happy and playful with all of our Rover guests so far. We will also exercise dogs on a walk around the neighborhood. I worked as a veterinarian assistant as an intern and know how to handle any emergencies that could arise. We look forward to meeting you and we are sure your dog will have a great time!
“Joy and her family are absolutely amazing! Our dogs love daycare with them. I am always anxious to leave my dogs but Joy took all those worries away! Our dogs come home happy and tired after daycare. She updates with pictures everyday! Cannot say enough good things about Joy and the care she provides to our babies!!”
“Absolutely amazing job! I will definitely be using her the next time I'm in need of this service. As someone with an ESA pet, his will being is important to me and she made the day worry free.”

About: Hi there fellow Fido parents! My name is Lauren and I have two dogs here in South Carolina and one back home in Indiana with my family. They're family to me so I know how much your furry friend means to you. I live in Spartanburg and work in Greenville at BringFido, a pet friendly travel service. My home is very dog friendly! My 11 year old schnoodle, Mr. Peabody Coaltrain resides there with me. Peabody feels he is required to growl (his way of talking) upon first meeting all other dogs, but he quickly adapts and loves to be with them. If your dog can be very aggressive they may not like his "hello" and may not be a good fit. Peabody doesn't play much, but he doesn't mind a dog that likes to. I also have a 7 lb Toy Schnauzer, Lil' Guy Murphy. He likes to play with all dogs despite their size. I usually put my dogs in a bedroom or outside when other dogs come in so your dogs can explore a little and not feel overwhelmed by the welcome committee before they meet. My husband, Jon is usually around and loves dogs just as much as I do. Between the two of us we make sure the dogs are let out several times throughout the day and receive plenty of attention. When dogs come to stay with us our time revolves around them! We enjoy it so much. I will watch dogs from multiple families at once as long as I feel they will all fit with the group. Aggressive dogs will likely not fit in well. I can keep small dogs who need their space separate, but it's a little more difficult with large dogs. I live near the Cottonwood Trail in Spartanburg, and love taking Peabody for walks there. I'm also not far from the Rail Tail Park if your dog enjoys time running free with others. Of course where we go and what we do is completely up to you and your pup to decide. Our backyard is fenced with room for your pup to run as well. I promise to look after and care for them as if they were my own family.
About: I work from home and have a flexible schedule to spend time with your pup. I recently lost my own dog and would love to spoil yours until I am ready to get another dog of my own. I have lots of experience with in-home dog sitting and have cared for giant and small dogs, as well as puppies learning to train and older dogs with special needs(medication, exercise, vet visits, etc). My priority is to make sure your pup is happy, healthy and safe. I am active and go walking every day, so I have my favorite spots to take your dog, according to their needs. I can also work on doggie manners if that's something you are looking for. Working from home allows me to be with your dog most of the day. I can fit in a morning or midday walk or play session for really active dogs and enjoy walking in the park near my house in the afternoons. Your dog will be the only dog in the house and have all my attention! I have a yard that is not fenced, so will leash and stay with your dog for all potty breaks and outside time.

About: I’ve spent years caring for pets for friends and family, including walking, drop-in visits, and overnight pet sitting. I’m comfortable with animals of all sizes and energy levels, from playful puppies to relaxed seniors. I currently live with and help care for three dogs (ages 1, 3, and 12), so I’m very familiar with managing different needs! I work part-time hours, so my time is pretty open overall. My schedule is set for each week, so my availability will be posted well in advance. I make sure to keep a consistent eye on animals even if they seem to be low maintenance. That includes indoor/outdoor time and during walks. If you have any safety concerns regarding your pet, just reach out.

About: Hi Friends! My name is Anne-Harrison and I have been pet sitting for over 15+ years! For the last 7 years I have been a sitter for Rover in Columbia, SC & Charleston, SC! During my time in Columbia I watched over 400 dogs & cats, so I consider myself to be extremely experienced when it comes to caring for your furry friend! I am able to be home almost all day, everyday. This means I have plenty of time to give your pet the attention that they deserve! I allow all of the pets I watch to roam freely in my home and I am willing to take them on long walks as well. Frequent visits to downtown and to dog parks are also common, of course at your discretion. Depending on the type of service needed, I am able to accommodate any special requests. I pride myself in taking the best care of your pet, and their happiness is my #1 priority! I hope to see you and your fur baby soon! *Pricing is based upon experience & the accommodations your pet will receive while in my care. Unlike most boarding facilities, your dog is given freedom to play, exercise, and sleep whenever & wherever they would like! I pride myself in offering the best care, hence why my pricing may also be higher. If you have a concern with pricing, please reach out so that we can discuss options! I am home for most of the day which means that I am able to give your pet plenty of attention and love! They are able to play inside or outside and I give them frequent potty breaks every 2-3 hours! For Boarding: I have a large fenced in yard area for your pup to play! I allow pets to have free roam of my home and they are allowed on furniture. For Drop In's or House Sitting: All details of expectations will need to be discussed before booking!

About: I moved to South Carolina 2 years ago from California, but I’ve lived all over the country. I love caring for animals and hope to soon own a farm full of them. I’ve recently purchased my own home and land, so a farm full of animals isn’t far off. For now though I have two dogs. The oldest is an 11 year old bridle mixed breed named Dingo, the younger one, Howie will be 3 this year. Both dogs are smart, well-behaved and friendly, but they also know how to keep to themselves. I'm good with any age, size or breed and can adapt to their needs, as I have worked with senior dogs, puppies, and special needs dogs alike. I have a car that I don't mind allowing pets in if we decide to take a trip to the dog park or any other dog appropriate destinations. I can't wait to meet you and your pet(s)! I currently work at a restaurant that’s closed on Mondays and opens at 11:30 the rest of the week, so I’m always available in the mornings. My schedule will change slightly week to week, but our schedules are put out two weeks in advance so I have plenty of time to plan and adjust for you and your pets needs. I have a large yard (grassy and wooded), an accommodating home and two friendly dogs. They would love to make some new friends, but are very good at keeping to themselves if necessary.
About: I am a dedicated hard worker with a love for animals. This job is the perfect match for my me and I intend to carry out my tasks to the best of my abilities. I am a honest person you can trust me to love and take care of your pet in your house or mine while you’re away. Lastly, with about 5 years working with dogs I feel qualified to give you the most out of your money. Can’t wait to meet you and your pup! I do work full time but only 4 days out of the weeks so I plan to arrive the people in my area whenever I’m not working or work walks around my schedule. I care for all pets like family, like best friends because that is what they are to me. Unfortunately they’re life is so short and I always try to make the best out of it.
About: I am an absolute dog lover. I have a small dog of my own named Kuma. He is a little over a year old and very well behaved. Him and I love adventuring together. We would be thrilled to have a buddy to accompany us in walks/runs or a trip to the park. I’ve handled all sorts of animals of all shapes and sizes my entire life. I’ve never met a pupper I didn’t love or that didn’t love me. I am a former veterinarian’s assistant so I am experienced in dog handling and first aid, and administering medicines. I am opened to walks, sitting and boarding. My availability is very open. I am fully willing to comply to yours and your fur baby’s needs.

“Joy was amazing. I was so nervous to leave my senior dog who is riddled with anxiety. Joy made me feel SO much better with her updates and when I picked up my dog after a week, she was as happy as a 14 year old can be. It's clear she has a passion for caring for animals. 11/10. Thank you, Joy!”
“You know your dog is happy with your sitter when you go the next time and he pulls on his leash to get into her house! We are so happy with Shawna’s care of Rufus while we were away. Also we were very thankful she noticed a hotspot under his armpit and got him well on the way to recovery before we returned. Rufus will definitely be back! 😊”
“Dara was the absolute best for my two girls! Our Sunshine has separation anxiety and every picture we received from Dara, our Sunny girl looked to be enjoying every minute of her stay!
