“Tara was great with Trapper. She was super flexible and easy to work with and sent several pics so we knew he was having fun and being well taken care of. We weren’t sure if he’d be ok playing with her dogs, but they were super sweet and immediately accepted him as part of the group. He had a blast while we were away.”
“Nicole and everyone did such a great job taking care of my dog and kitten! The kitten I literally found a week before I had to leave on my trip and she didn't mind taking him in too. I know my dog can be lots of work. She shared pictures every day which I absolutely love. I'll definitely be using her again! She also runs a daycare, so I'm glad my dog had plenty of friends to play with. Thanks again!”
“Wonderful, wonderful care! Ann is such a loving and caring pet sitter. She is thoughtful of each animal and gives her all! So grateful to have found her, and thankful that my dogs were well cared for during their stay!”
“Emily was awesome! She kept me updated daily with pictures and text messages. I felt very comfortable with leaving my dog while on vacation with Emily. I'm very pleased and will use her for the future.”
“Pepper was the absolute best! She kept in constant contact and sent tons of pictures of Oppie. He had the time of his life during his stay with her. I will absolutely be booking with Pepper again!”
“Kimi is amazing!!!! She has a real special love for animals! I knew my “Bit” was in great hands! After picking her up, she has come back to me more loving and gentle! I give Kimi two thumbs up!!!! Thank You for loving and taking care of my little girl while I was away!”
“Haley, Was really great with my boy Sherlock. I was very happy with her professionalism and attention to care for my Sherlock. As well as the updates easing my mind that he was in good hands. Thank you Haley”
“I needed a stress free getaway. Leaving my sweet dog with a sitter was not my 1st choice. Sean took great care her! He kept me updated daily with a pic. She’s an older dog, and he seemed to have had a blast staying with him. For the price and care she got, I would recommend him every time.”
About: I’ve been a pet sitter for more than 25 years. I specialize in senior care for dogs as well as young adults . My dogs are both rescues . I’m currently semi-retired and your pet is my priority. I am available holidays and weekend's. I have two small dogs, they are gentle and like other dogs. I have a fully fenced yard, and a doggie door leading to my backyard. I can crate your dog if that is what you prefer.
“I am always so pleased with how Oliver and Ted E Bear are given such great care. I feel that this is their home away from home. I can't say enough about the wonderful care.”
“We can’t say enough good things about Tracy! From the start she paid such great attention to detail by taking notes and getting to know our dog’s routine. She introduced our dog to her two French Bulldogs (Bond and Money Penny) and they got along so well! They were very sweet and playful. During our dog’s week long stay, Tracy kept us updated through text as well as sent videos and pictures. Tracy is very knowledgeable and has great experience with dogs of all kinds. It was obvious that she has a passion for what she does and took such amazing care of our girl! We highly recommend her and plan to go to her for future care. 5 stars!!!”
“Sara is awesome! Our dog Abby stayed with her over the weekend and had a blast. Sara was very communicative, sent photos and updates everyday. She is really sweet, attentive, and has a ton of experience which a huge bonus. She came to pick her up in the cutest doggy yellow bus, we really enjoyed the entire experience. We’ll be contacting her again for all future needs. We are so grateful that we found her!”
About: Our names are Nina Phillips and Erin Carns, we live together in Clemson and both attend as third years! As two college students, we both are missing the company of and caring for our furry friends back home. Nina has experience with dogs of all sizes, but has cared for large dogs like Cane Corsos up to 160 pounds. Erin has volunteered in shelters since she was young, and has lots of experience caring for small dogs like yorkies! We can’t wait to meet your furbabies and care for them like they’re our own! While we are both full time students, our schedules do not have much overlap, meaning Erin is generally home in the morning, and Nina is usually home in the afternoon and night. This applies to both pet sitting and availability to walk or let out animals in your home! In our experience caring for animals, we have found that the best way to facilitate a calm, safe environment and avoid stressing the animal is to do our absolute best to care for the animal exactly as the owner would. To do this, we love hearing as many details as possible- all your animals silly little quirks, your routine caring for the animal, and any other things that could help make the transition easy for them!
“Max seemed very happy and well taken care of. I think he enjoyed playing with their dog Sammy and being around children. Thanks for taking such good care of him, see you next time!”
“Stephanie was absolutely AMAZING! ❤️ I get so anxious leaving my baby, but from the moment I met her, I felt completely at ease. She was such a great communicator and sent me pictures and updates throughout the day, every day, which made such a huge difference. I was able to actually relax and enjoy my trip knowing Alphie was in such good hands. Stephanie has the sweetest personality and was an absolute joy to work with. You can tell she genuinely loves and cares for the dogs she watches, and Alphie had SO much fun with her. When I came to pick him up, he almost didn’t want to come home—which has NEVER happened before! 😂❤️ That alone tells me everything I need to know. I will absolutely be using Stephanie for all of my future dog-sitting needs. I honestly couldn’t recommend her enough. If I could give her a million stars, I would! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Summer was great -- so reliable and responsive! We were visiting relatives for a football game at Clemson and we had our dog in tow. Summer watched our dog for the whole afternoon and was very understanding about the late evening pick up, given how long night football games can go. Summer sent photos and took great care of our guy, and he seemed really comfortable with her. Definitely would recommend her!”
“Raquel was absolutely amazing and updated me with lots of pictures each and every day I had great communication anytime I had a question or anytime I messaged her! She was very flexible with drop off and pick up time and my dog was very happy with her stay as well!”
“Chris and Debbie did an amazing job taking care of our dog Bigfoot. I know he was loved and well looked after while we were gone on vacation. I would highly recommend them. They have a great setup and were also good with communication. I will definitely be using them again!”

About: I had multiple dogs all of my life and have taken care of horses and barn cats. Love all animals and want to make sure that they are doing amazing while you are away. I have pet sitted on and off over the years for friends and even flew to Las Vegas to petsit for an extended weekend. I’m currently working full time but can do late night drop ins, walks and am available any time on the weekends. Typically on the weekends I am free/flexible for any time, except the few times I’m out of town. Before letting pets out in fenced areas I double check gates are closed and latched before letting out. For any pets that are walked I ensure that they are leashed before heading out the door and do not take the leash off until inside with the door closed. I have an escape artist of myself at home so I know what to look for. I can easily place your pet in a crate before leaving if that is necessary.
“Laura was perfect for our kitty Casper and provided updates and pictures to keep us up to date. She even came over before the pet-sitting for a meet and greet with our pet. Couldn't recommend here enough and will be happy to request her again for next time. Thank you Laura!”
“Marissa was great! We had a last minute need to for someone to do drop-in visits for my cat & she was extremely accommodating. She was super sweet, attentive & did an amazing job caring for my cat.”
“Madison is amazing. She took the best care of my kitties and was very responsible, attentive, and made sure they got lots of attention. I highly recommend her. I’m definitely sticking with her.”
“This is the second time I’ve used Kathleen’s services, and she’s been just as attentive, reliable, and friendly as the first time. She takes such great care of my cat and truly treats her like one of her own. I always feel at ease knowing my cat is in such caring hands. Kathleen keeps me updated, is very thoughtful, and goes above and beyond to make sure everything is taken care of. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter!”
“Joslyn took great care of our two cats! She was always timely and very communicative! We appreciate her checking in on them while we were out of town. I definitely felt at ease knowing they were in great hands!”
“Victoria was wonderful! We met her prior to starting her drop in visits and she familiarized herself with walk procedures. Every day I received an update on her visit along with pictures of our happy doggos which made going away easier on my guilt. We came home to two happy pups.”
“Our dog Leo loved his short stay with Madison on Thanksgiving Day. Communication was great and she was wonderful with Leo. He had a great time and would definitely recommend Madison.”
About: I have experience taking care of dogs different personalities and needs. For the past 2 years I have regularly cared for my boyfriend’s family dog including walking, feeding, and playing with him. I have also walked dogs for neighbors and have experience caring for foster puppies. I am currently a full time student, so I am available after 4:00 PM on weekdays and any time on weekends for walking, checking in or sitting. I have a very gentle and calm demeanor around animals and am aware of my surroundings. I would care for your pet by reviewing requests for what I do with your pet and communicating anything usual that happens right away. I always make sure to check that leashes and locks are secured before leaving.
“Very lovely person and could not have been a bigger help than she was! I needed a sitter last minute and I'm very thankful that Alyssa was available during that time. My cat, Ami, was well taken care of and happy.”
“It was such a pleasure meeting Stacie, and getting to know her a little, along with hearing about her own love of animals! I so appreciated the photos she sent since my two cats are new to each other and she was totally thorough in caring for them!”
“Justine is so nice and knew what it was like to look after a cat who can be a challenge at times! We're new to the area, so was thrilled to find someone flexible and reliable. Since she works at a veterinarian office, I booked an appt for my cat the following week. Only wish she did overnight stays as my cat needs the attention/company if I'm gone longer than two days.”
About: If any of my friends and family had one to say about me, it would be the fact that I love animals and caring for them. I am always the first person they call whenever they need a petsitter! I have always had pets in my life ever since I was a kid and have had a large range of experience with different pets such as hamsters, guinea pigs, reptiles, kittens/cats, puppies/dogs, fish, goats, donkeys, and horses. I love animals of all species, sizes, shapes, and colors and am dedicated to giving them the best care possible. Although this site is designed more for dogs/cats, I am comfortable caring for all types of pets you may have! My most recent animal quest was fostering 5 feral cat/kittens, rehabilitating them, and finding them quality homes after providing them safe harbor for 4 months. I also have a lot of experience in the horse industry, I've worked at an equestrian center and owned horses myself for about 12 years of my life and know all of the ins and outs to equine care. Dogs are also a breeze for me, I have experience caring for all life stages from puppies to seniors. My dog Luna is only 2 years old herself so I went down that road of leash & potty training myself not too long ago! My family also has a 10 year old senior Labrador Retriever, Scout, that I often care for as well. Overall, I would like to say that I am very empathetic towards animals and have a magic touch when it comes to providing for their needs, comfort, and happiness. I would love to share my love and hospitality with your pets as well! I currently work part-time and have frequent availability to spend time with your beloved pets! I'm currently available all day on Mondays, anytime before 3 on Tuesdays, and all day on Wednesdays. However I do work in a restaurant, so my weekend availability does fluctuate each week. But don't worry, I will do everything I can to work with you and make myself available when you need me! I live in a 2-story townhouse with 2 spare bedrooms, so needless to say there is plenty of room for your pet. I have 2 cats Sushi and Kumi, that are dog and cat friendly, as well as a 2 year old Lab-Catahoula mix, Luna, who is super friendly and playful towards other dogs and cats as well! She loves playing with others, so your dog definitely wont be lonely! I will disclose that I'm aware that some people aren't comfortable with leaving their pets with other animals they aren't familiar with, so if that is the case then no problem! I have a garage and 2 spare bedrooms that I can keep them separated in while also giving them all the attention they require. I do not have a yard unfortunately, but there are a few walking trails in close proximity my neighborhood that I take my Luna for walks on all the time! There is also a dog park 10 minutes away that I can take your pet to at any time. I am fully capable of accommodating for all of your pets needs, I have an automatic water bowl that is cleaned and refilled daily, multiple food bowls, toys, cat trees, treats, and leashes, as well as a large crate to house your pet as deemed necessary. If it is required that I care for your pet in your home, I will assure you that I am great at following specific care routines and fully understand why they may be necessary.

About: I began working in dog/cat boarding facilities at 16 years old. From grooming to training, I have done it all! I own a professional dog training business and have for been training for the last 12 years. I trial and compete with my personal dogs as well! I have experience with young energetic puppies- to seniors who need more advanced and personal care. I am home full time training and entertaining dogs 24/7. l start walks at 7am and then serve breakfast, throughout the day I walk as needed or every 2 hours, as well as offer frozen kongs, playing with the ball or another pup, or a walk around the neighborhood to get tired. Dinner is around 5-6 and last outside time is at 10pm generally! I care for pets in my own home. I have a fenced in back yard, with tires/a tire swing, 24/7 surveillance as well as plenty of toys and water always available. I provide blankets, bowls, toys, a tv with relaxing music, and daily pictures with updates! 🥰 My property is completely fenced, offering ample space for your pup to frolic and play freely! Indoors, they'll receive the same love and care as if they were my own pet. Unless you specify otherwise, your dog is more than welcome to join me on the bed or sofa during our downtime—because they're truly part of the family.
“Our dog just finished having a great day with Roman and Justine. She is sound asleep now, haha. Roman and Justine were very responsive and were flexible with our schedule. We will book with them again.”
“Lisa was absolutely amazing! Watson loved his time there. She has a large, fenced in backyard and Watson really enjoyed the ability to run around and get lots of exercise. Lisa played fetch with Watson and sent lots of pictures and videos of Watson playing. Lisa was attentive and provided me with thorough updates and feedback. She really loved on Watson and I could tell how much he loved being with her ?. He would run excitedly right up to her front door every morning and would be sad to leave in the eveninings. Thank you so much, Lisa!”
“Our dog Leo loved his short stay with Madison on Thanksgiving Day. Communication was great and she was wonderful with Leo. He had a great time and would definitely recommend Madison.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. My own dogs, my neighbors have asked me to drop in while they were on vacation, and my parents friends have had me dog and house sit while they were away. I take the time to get to know what the pets need instead of taking a one size fits all approach. I’m available all week, whatever time. I’m not working any other jobs so I’m available whenever pets need it or pet parents want an extra check in or reassurance. I make sure they’re comfortable, whether that’s in a crate or just on a bed, constantly check their food and water, and make sure they’re good and tired before I stop playing with them.
“Communication was excellent. This was my first time using Rover for doggie daycare. There were multiple people on site who were helping care for the dogs during the day. My dog was able to play with other medium-sized dogs. She definitely got enough exercise, and she is a higher energy dog breed (Husky). They also sent me a picture of her playing with some other dogs. And, they have air conditioned space available indoors for hotter days. We had a good experience and I would recommend them!”
About: I have had dogs my whole life and I really love all animals. I have cared for many different breeds, including two deaf dogs and one 3-legged dog. I am patient, reliable, and I am comfortable with all disabilities and needs. I am quick to understand what makes your dog comfortable. I have also fostered dogs while in college and have had experience with many puppies. My goal is to make sure that your dog feels comfortable and well taken care of while you’re away. I am completely free until I leave for school on August 9th! I have a part time job where I work some Sundays at the Farmers Market from 8am-1pm. I am extremely flexible. I prioritize creating a safe and comfortable environment for pets. During drop-in visits, I ensure dogs receive regular exercise through walks and playtime, tailored to their energy levels and preferences. For weekend care, I create a routine that mirrors their home life, incorporating their favorite activities and ensuring they feel secure. My goal is to provide a loving, attentive experience that keeps your dog happy and relaxed.

About: I got my dog when I was 13 and she was the best thing that happened to me. She was the most loving and caring dog I ever met but lost her to a serious illness and I just love to give out my heart to animals and would love to spend some time with your animals. I am a stay at home mom and the moment. Son is five and in kindergarten and he loves animals just as much as I do but because I’m not completely over losing my dog I haven’t been able to get him a dog for himself. I’m home and have a dog park right now the road from me so keeping dogs a breeze. I always have an eye on the animals. Never feed food other then the kind given. Nothing in the rooms that they would stay in that could hurt them.
About: My home is a dog-friendly, warm and inviting place where your special family member will be loved and cared for. I was a dog owner (lab rescues) for the last 12 years, but sadly my last guy recently crossed the rainbow bridge. I have a lot of love just waiting to be shared! I work from home so our time and availability is flexible! I love to take frequent walk and play breaks. And I am always up for some cuddle time! My yard is shady for dogs of all sizes. The neighborhood is pet friendly with lots of walking. I previously managed a pet sitting business within our Virginia neighborhood and can provide references.
“Maggie was very excited to go to Ann’s house. We had a meet and greet the day before. Ann was very prompt getting back to me after my request and communicated very well. She kept us updated with photos and texts. We will definitely use her services again!”
“Zoe was great with Sage! She kept me updated throughout the day and sent several pictures. Sage had a good time. She went on walks and she played with the other dogs and the cat. We will definitely use Zoe again in the future”
About: I have been caring for dogs for over 10 years and absolutely love animals of all kinds! Since I was around 11 years old, neighbors, friends, and families in my community have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets. I truly love spending time with dogs whether that means going on walks, playing outside, sticking to their routines, or just relaxing and cuddling with them. I am very dependable, patient, and attentive to each dog’s personality and needs. As a full time Clemson MBA student taking online classes this summer, I also have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets lots of attention and care! I am currently a full time MBA student at Clemson taking only a few online classes this summer, which gives me a very flexible schedule for pet care! I am available during weekdays, weekends, mornings, afternoons, evenings, and overnights depending on your needs. Because my schedule is flexible, I am able to give pets lots of attention, playtime, walks, and companionship throughout the day. I love staying active with dogs and making sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while their owners are away. Creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for pets is very important to me. If pets stay in my home, I live in a great neighborhood for walks and outdoor time, and I always make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and sticking to their normal routines as much as possible. I am also completely comfortable staying overnight in a client’s home if that is preferred for your pet’s comfort and consistency. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone, and I always treat every animal like they are my own with lots of attention, patience, affection, and care!!

“Ash did a great job with our Schnauzer, Jack. She walked him regularly, made homemade treats for him and let him chill on her sofa. This was wonderful while we spent the day with great friends and was a great comfort to us, knowing that Jack was safe and happy. Highly recommend. Call Ash.”

About: Hello! I have taken care of many different types of animals, all shapes and sizes ever since I was 15 years old. I have taken care of cats, dogs, birds, reptiles, and fish! Whether it’s just one fur baby, or even up to six at a time, I can do it! I love animals and have a cat and four fish of my own—I have had a few dogs in the past as well! I would love to get to know your pets and take care of them if you need help! :) I am typically free most week days and weekends anytime to walk, feed, or play with pets. Mondays and Wednesdays I am more busy in the morning time due to classes, however I can still do drop-ins before and after on those days as well! For my current pets I keep my fish in a 50 gallon tank since they are smaller, but love the space. For my cat, Squash, she stays in my main unit with me free to roam around and cuddle with me whenever she likes. I do not offer boarding services since my complex only allows a certain amount of pets at a time.
About: I’ve cared for a variety of pets over the years, including two sweet senior dogs and a cat, and I’ve loved every moment of it. I have volunteered at a local animal shelter near Clemson where I took dogs out on “doggy daycations” — long walks, fresh air, and of course pup cups to make their day extra special. I also grew up helping care for my family’s Australian Labradoodle, so I’m comfortable with everything from energetic playtime to gentle, patient care. Whether your pet wants adventure, affection, or a calm companion, I’m here to make them feel safe, loved, and happy. I have a very light semester at Clemson this year, which means I’ll have plenty of downtime and a flexible schedule for pet care. Whether you need regular walks, drop‑ins, or last‑minute help, I’ll be around and available. I love spending my free time outside anyway, so your pets will get lots of attention, fresh air, and fun while you’re away. I always prioritize safety and comfort. I have hands‑on experience walking untrained shelter dogs outdoors, so I’m confident handling pups who may pull, get excited, or need a little extra patience. I’m gentle, calm, and loving with both dogs and cats, and I make sure every animal feels secure and respected in my care. Whether we’re out exploring or relaxing at home, I create a safe, positive environment where pets can be themselves and feel completely at ease.
“Madison was great! She was able to accommodate a same-day request, which I really appreciated. She took Annika on an adventure to the park, and Annika came home completely pooped. It was clear she had a great time. I would definitely book with Madison again!”
About: For as long as I can remember, I have always had a dog in my life. I am always willing to make time for a four-legged companion, and because I'm athletic/energetic, I enjoy walking and playing with your dog. I have 20 years of sitting experience, five on Rover, and I've worked in professional pet boarding and training at a boutique kennel (Cuddly Critters in Greenville). I am a schedule oriented person who can easily adapt to other people's/animal's schedules. Pets always make the best companions, and I want to get to know as many as possible. I have had several fulltime jobs throughout my life, but I doubt any will be as fun as watching your dog. Recently, my career has revolved around higher education, so anything that can make a dent in my student loans is a plus! Happy to hear any questions/special requests you might have. Please feel free to contact me for anything. I'm currently working part time, but it is all remote work done via laptop. So all I need is wifi and I'm good to go. I can commit most of the 24+hrs directly to your dog. I always create a fun and safe environment whenever I'm around "our better halves" (lol). I know how to calm down anxious dogs, but also keep up with any sheep dogs you might have lol.
About: Over the course of my life I’ve owned dogs, cats, rabbits, and multiple different types of reptiles. Currently my family has two dogs, a cat, and a bearded dragon that I care for. I have worked at a vet clinic, and gained a lot of experience with animals. I am currently going to Clemson University and studying Animal Sciences to hopefully eventually be able to go into their vet program. I’m home from college for the summer until August 14, so I have a lot of extra free time that I’m hoping to fill. Plus my job right now is very flexible. When I'm caring for pets, whether it's house sitting, drop-in visits, or dog walking, I always focus on their comfort and routine. For house sitting, I live in your home, making sure your pets are fed, walked, and given their meds, and your home stays just as you left it. For drop-in visits, I stop by your home to feed, play with, and maybe walk your pets. For dog walks, I give your dog a fun and safe walk, making sure they get the exercise they need. I always follow your instructions to keep your pets happy and your home well-maintained. With my own dogs I have experience giving them meds, walking them, feeding them, playing with them, and training them to do tricks.
About: i’ve had pets my whole life and even grew up with 4 dogs of various breeds and ages, as well as completed an internship at a local vet taking care of dogs and cats. I have done animals sitting since I was very young and am confident in my ability to ensure safety and fun for your pet. I am currently working part time and have most late morning to early afternoons free to dedicate to your furry friends for any services needed! I have lots of experience with dogs and cats of my own and their needs. Should your pet or you have any specifications or needs I am happy to do so. I love taking photos of animals and would love to share them with you if should wish during my time with your pet!
About: I began working at Radnor Veterinary Hospital as a Boarding Attendant, where I cared for a variety of animals, primarily dogs, and was responsible for feeding, walking, medicating, and monitoring their daily needs. I then worked as a Veterinary Assistant at the Exotic and Small Animal Hospital of PA, where I gained extensive hands-on experience with both small animals and exotic pets. I assisted with appointments, treatments, medications, laboratory work, and monitoring patients before, during, and after procedures. This experience taught me how to recognize changes in an animal’s behavior and health, safely handle animals, and provide attentive care for pets with different needs. I am currently a pre-veterinary student at Clemson University pursuing my passion for becoming a veterinarian. I especially enjoy caring for rabbits and dogs, but honestly just love being around animals. I have classes regularly; however, in the afternoon and later evenings, I am usually free almost every day! I try to be really flexible; however, school does create some constraints. I make sure to locate the nearest vet in case of an emergency, keep a close eye on your pet during the whole time, and record if I see anything unusual.
About: Our names are Nina Phillips and Erin Carns, we live together in Clemson and both attend as third years! As two college students, we both are missing the company of and caring for our furry friends back home. Nina has experience with dogs of all sizes, but has cared for large dogs like Cane Corsos up to 160 pounds. Erin has volunteered in shelters since she was young, and has lots of experience caring for small dogs like yorkies! We can’t wait to meet your furbabies and care for them like they’re our own! While we are both full time students, our schedules do not have much overlap, meaning Erin is generally home in the morning, and Nina is usually home in the afternoon and night. This applies to both pet sitting and availability to walk or let out animals in your home! In our experience caring for animals, we have found that the best way to facilitate a calm, safe environment and avoid stressing the animal is to do our absolute best to care for the animal exactly as the owner would. To do this, we love hearing as many details as possible- all your animals silly little quirks, your routine caring for the animal, and any other things that could help make the transition easy for them!
About: I have had dogs and cats as pets my whole life. I love taking care of animals and giving them the love they deserve! I have experience with walking, bathing, feeding, and playing with dogs and cats and I am happy to help! I am home for the summer so I will be available pretty much anytime of day throughout the week and weekend! Message me for more detailed info! I am a very neat and tidy person and always make it a priority to clean up after myself and the animals when I am pet sitting, doing check ins, etc!
“I was very happy with Savannah and my dogs loved her! She was always on time, very pleasant and easy to work with. My schedule changed a lot and she was very accommodating through six or seven changes., which was wonderful and so is she!”
About: I have been a pet lover since birth. Throughout my life, I had lived with dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, snakes and even a pet skunk. I have been fortunate enough to have had the opportunity to assist and care for injured and rehabilitated raptors, spent several years as a foster mom for orphaned bats, and assisted in researching black bears. I currently live with three sweetie pie pups, a 9 and 6 year old golden retrievers, Deal and Bear and a 7 year old mixed rescue named Carly. I am available to come to your home and walk, run, feed, water, cuddle, and play with your animal(s). Your pets will love me and I will love them back. I am currently working from my home, so I have plenty of availability for whatever and whenever you need someone to help out with your home and pets. I will keep a watchful eye out for your animals and send frequent photos and updates to you while your babies are under my care.
About: If any of my friends and family had one to say about me, it would be the fact that I love animals and caring for them. I am always the first person they call whenever they need a petsitter! I have always had pets in my life ever since I was a kid and have had a large range of experience with different pets such as hamsters, guinea pigs, reptiles, kittens/cats, puppies/dogs, fish, goats, donkeys, and horses. I love animals of all species, sizes, shapes, and colors and am dedicated to giving them the best care possible. Although this site is designed more for dogs/cats, I am comfortable caring for all types of pets you may have! My most recent animal quest was fostering 5 feral cat/kittens, rehabilitating them, and finding them quality homes after providing them safe harbor for 4 months. I also have a lot of experience in the horse industry, I've worked at an equestrian center and owned horses myself for about 12 years of my life and know all of the ins and outs to equine care. Dogs are also a breeze for me, I have experience caring for all life stages from puppies to seniors. My dog Luna is only 2 years old herself so I went down that road of leash & potty training myself not too long ago! My family also has a 10 year old senior Labrador Retriever, Scout, that I often care for as well. Overall, I would like to say that I am very empathetic towards animals and have a magic touch when it comes to providing for their needs, comfort, and happiness. I would love to share my love and hospitality with your pets as well! I currently work part-time and have frequent availability to spend time with your beloved pets! I'm currently available all day on Mondays, anytime before 3 on Tuesdays, and all day on Wednesdays. However I do work in a restaurant, so my weekend availability does fluctuate each week. But don't worry, I will do everything I can to work with you and make myself available when you need me! I live in a 2-story townhouse with 2 spare bedrooms, so needless to say there is plenty of room for your pet. I have 2 cats Sushi and Kumi, that are dog and cat friendly, as well as a 2 year old Lab-Catahoula mix, Luna, who is super friendly and playful towards other dogs and cats as well! She loves playing with others, so your dog definitely wont be lonely! I will disclose that I'm aware that some people aren't comfortable with leaving their pets with other animals they aren't familiar with, so if that is the case then no problem! I have a garage and 2 spare bedrooms that I can keep them separated in while also giving them all the attention they require. I do not have a yard unfortunately, but there are a few walking trails in close proximity my neighborhood that I take my Luna for walks on all the time! There is also a dog park 10 minutes away that I can take your pet to at any time. I am fully capable of accommodating for all of your pets needs, I have an automatic water bowl that is cleaned and refilled daily, multiple food bowls, toys, cat trees, treats, and leashes, as well as a large crate to house your pet as deemed necessary. If it is required that I care for your pet in your home, I will assure you that I am great at following specific care routines and fully understand why they may be necessary.

“Tara was great with Trapper. She was super flexible and easy to work with and sent several pics so we knew he was having fun and being well taken care of. We weren’t sure if he’d be ok playing with her dogs, but they were super sweet and immediately accepted him as part of the group. He had a blast while we were away.”
“Nicole and everyone did such a great job taking care of my dog and kitten! The kitten I literally found a week before I had to leave on my trip and she didn't mind taking him in too. I know my dog can be lots of work. She shared pictures every day which I absolutely love. I'll definitely be using her again! She also runs a daycare, so I'm glad my dog had plenty of friends to play with. Thanks again!”

“I needed a stress free getaway. Leaving my sweet dog with a sitter was not my 1st choice. Sean took great care her! He kept me updated daily with a pic. She’s an older dog, and he seemed to have had a blast staying with him. For the price and care she got, I would recommend him every time.”
“Sara is awesome! Our dog Abby stayed with her over the weekend and had a blast. Sara was very communicative, sent photos and updates everyday. She is really sweet, attentive, and has a ton of experience which a huge bonus. She came to pick her up in the cutest doggy yellow bus, we really enjoyed the entire experience. We’ll be contacting her again for all future needs. We are so grateful that we found her!”

“Max seemed very happy and well taken care of. I think he enjoyed playing with their dog Sammy and being around children. Thanks for taking such good care of him, see you next time!”
“Summer was great -- so reliable and responsive! We were visiting relatives for a football game at Clemson and we had our dog in tow. Summer watched our dog for the whole afternoon and was very understanding about the late evening pick up, given how long night football games can go. Summer sent photos and took great care of our guy, and he seemed really comfortable with her. Definitely would recommend her!”
