Highly-rated overnight sitters - Troy
“Despite our dog making his best effort to show he was one of the naughtiest around, Mary remained patient and went through every effort to make him comfortable. Thank you for taking such great care of our Bennie while we were away.”
“Our first time leaving our dog, Clover with Kail. He and his wife were great! They sent pictures and updates the whole time. They were so loving and kind! They have a great home to take care of dogs. We were very thankful to find them and will definitely ask them again.”
“My dogs love Veronica and she treats them like family when they are with her. I have moved to multiple cities and used Rover in all of them and I will say she has been the most loving with my two fur babies!”
“Our dog had a great time with Jen and her fur baby! She especially loved the big fenced in backyard. Jen had great communication with us throughout our trip and was very flexible.”
About: I’ve grown up with pets my whole life. There’s nothing that gives me more joy than to love on a furry friend! I’ve pet sat for years, and have two veterinarians in our family only a call away. I’m excellent at medication, patient and intuitive to your pets needs. I work from home, rarely out for more than an hour or two a day. I’ve got one doggy in my home, Mr Bear, who was born completely deaf. He’s very tender and loves all new friends he meets. Neutered and non aggressive. I have 20 acres of property, awesome trails for sniffing, ball throwing and walkies. It is not fenced, but happy to keep your pup on a leash if you prefer. My little man is free in the home, sleeps in my bed and watches TV on the couch, no crates, but I’m happy to crate if that’s what makes your puppy feel safe. I’ve got extra rooms in my home so if you’d like them separated I can offer that as well.
“Brandy put the A in Amazing. She is truly phenomenal! She was very loving and communicative. Our fur baby enjoyed his stay and we definitely will choose Ms. Brandy whenever she is available.”
“Tosha and Joe were very sympathetic to the concerns we had about our two German Shepherds being away from us for the first time, for an extended time. We chose them for three reasons: 1. They have a GSD of their own. 2. Joe is a full-time at home Rover dad. 3. They board a small number of dogs at one time. They were great at communicating with us whenever we had questions or concerns and sent pics to show how the dogs were settling in. Even though our pups did not have the amount of exercise they are accustomed to having in a fenced yard, we did not sense any anxiety when we returned. They have readjusted without a hitch-which speaks volumes of their security level with Tosha and Joe. We would definitely use them again.”
“We were nervous about being away from our puppy for the first time, but she got lots of play time and lots of love from Joanna and her family. They were welcoming of Maggie’s playful energy and treated her just like she was one of their own. We would definitely book with Joanna again!”
“I just moved into Greenville, and had to get a sitter last minute for my mom’s funeral. Shelley was very accommodating prompt, and send tons of pictures of my dog. She was extremely friendly and had a great backyard for the dogs to Run around. She was excellent at returning text messages and any form of communication. Her dog Gracie got along with my dogs. I highly recommend her.”

“Lashanda recently stayed at our home and took care of our two Ragdolls cats. She is an excellent setter, our two cats thought of her as family. Lashanda communicates very well with lots of updates and pictures which made us very comfortable on our vacation. We highly recommend her, she is definitely a 5 star setter.”
About: I've had pets since I was little. We got our first dog when I was in about 4th grade. At the moment I have a Guinea pig. I've been to obedience school with my dog before so I think that might come in handy. Other than that. I just want to enjoy their company. And also keep an eye on your bundle of joy for you. I've had pitbulls, pinkingneses, and a beagle before but I mostly know about smaller dogs. I've read a plethora of dog books from my local library during my early teenage years to get a good understanding of most species. I also am constantly researching anything I need to, on more than just Google and wikipedia but multiple sources. I hope I can be of service to anyone who would have me. I work two part time jobs and am looking to fill my time with some fur babies. The time spend at both jobs is equal to less than 40 hours. I have a crate trained dog in my home and plenty of yard to run around. I live on a dirt road so it is not traveled often.
“Sarah takes great care of our kittens. Always very kind and keeps you updated on how everything is going. I have no fears leaving our kittens with her, and I couldn’t recommend her more.”
About: I not only have a passion in fitness, but the well being of all furry pets, especially dogs! I treat every dog as my own, because they all have a heart just like we do and need to make sure we understand their needs as a companion. I am willing to go beyond and make sure your pet remains active, and know the importance since I have a pretty healthy 11 years old pup myself! Allow me to show you that you can become comfortable and know that your dog will be in great hands, while they are gaining a friend=) This is not a job to me, but a privilege! If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know! Hope to work with you and your wonderful dog soon! I'm an Exercise Science/Psychology graduate and trainer. My line of work is organized how I schedule it to make sure I am meeting standards and delivering the proper care. IF we agree to bring your fur babies in my home I could provide great accommodations. I have a sweet dog and cat so what ever I could do to meet needs.

“I had to go out of town last minute and Mary saved the day by checking on my pup for me! Benny seemed to love her and she kept me informed on how he was doing which gave me peace of mind so I could enjoy my trip. Thank you Mary!!”
“Trusted them with our dogs immediately. We didn't have to worry while we were out because we received picture texts and updates. We will most definitely be using Veronica andher husband again in the near future!”
“Kail and his family watched our puppy and were so wonderful with him. It was his first time away from us and he loved it at their beautiful property. This family loves your pet like their own. I plan to bring my puppy back soon. I highly recommend them.”
“We were in a bind with a late cancellation and reached out to Brandy. She was able to help us out and we had a great experience with Brandy. Communication was excellent as she provided updates on his well being. Location was convenient to downtown. Will look her up again if we find the need for dog sitting in Greenville.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for many years. I’ve had all ages of dogs from 8 weeks old to 10 years old. I’ve walked, bathed, fed, and groomed my dogs. I am available all days of the week.

About: I have enjoyed caring for fur babies for many years, from Pomeranians to a kennel full of Irish wolfhounds for a show handler. I take up to 2 dogs for daycare or overnight care in my home. For dog walking only, I prefer evenings in the summer months, 5-9:30pm. I have the summer months completely open for doggy daycare. I prefer only 2 dogs at a time inside my home. Please contact me with any questions on scheduling or baths (please provide preferred shampoo). For needed dog walking, I prefer evenings as the heat can be hard on pups, 5-9pm. I have a railed porch and an access door from the inside for pups who want safe outdoor time. I am in a gated community with plentiful space, and my home is steps away from a fenced dog park.
About: I have had dogs most my life. As an adult, I have had 3 pit bulls and a cane corso. Between them, I am very familiar with medical needs, puppies, and elderly dogs. Before children, my husband and I fostered bully breeds. Currently, I have been dog sitting on Rover for over a year. I understand the struggle with finding quality dog sitters that meet your pets needs. I hope I can provide you comfort in knowing your dog will be treated like family when in my care. I am currently available for drop in visits and daily walks. I currently have 2 dogs and 2 boys. Our backyard is about an half an acre that is completely fenced in. I am comfortable with dogs roaming the house and being crated. I have an XL crate in the home that is available to keep your pet safe. There is also a mudroom that can be used for dogs to have their own space if needed. We are an active family that enjoys being outdoors. I am a SAHM with flexibility in my schedule to accommodate dogs routine. I enjoy taking daily walks. We have a fenced in backyard to allow to the dogs to run around and play. With my 2 personal dogs, there is always someone willing to play.

About: I’ve always loved pets and growing up my parents never allowed me to get any so when I was able to move out i immediately went and got me a little puppy (lab) from a shelter that I’ve been volunteering at and every since then Mia have been the light of my life!. My friends always rely on me to dog sit for them or just to come over and let them out for a potty break. I’m currently work full time at Allstate M-F and I recently graduated from university of South Carolina Aiken. Because I’m full time throughout the week and off every weekend, I wanted to make money doing something I love and that’s when I came across rover. I am free every weekend to dog sit/dog walks/ few drops in per day if that’s something you need while away or gone for a long period of time during the day I currently only have 1 dog and her name is Mia! She’s the sweetest/ friendliest puppy ever! She will make your fur baby feel right at home with her smile and energy.

I’m currently a college student via online courses and a kennel tech with a flexible schedule. Therefore I let the owners choose the times they need or want. I love my fur babies so much.
