“Martina took such good care of my fur baby, Murray. Her communication was excellent, she regularly sent me pictures and updates. Murray had some separation anxiety and I did come pick him up a day early. But he was sad to leave and started whining when I put my car in reverse to back out of the driveway. We accidentally left behind his water bowl and a toy, when we returned to pick up our forgotten items he ran out of my car, up onto the porch and sat at Martina's front door. He loved staying with Martina and playing with her son”
“Lexie took amazing care of my lab! She is incredibly detail-oriented during the intake process and clearly passionate about dogs. Her professionalism really stood out. The pack-dog environment she provides (just as advertised) was perfect for my super-friendly and playful lab, who thrived in her care. I couldn’t be happier with the experience and am so grateful to have found Lexie. I will absolutely be bringing my fur baby back!”
“This was our first time ever leaving our dog ! He is 14 months and still quite the puppy. Tracy and her family were amazing and I looked forward to the fun pictures she sent. I know Jeter had a fun time ! So very happy with everything !”
“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.”
“The boys seemed well cared for! Nice to have a dog lovers home to leave your precious ones with when gone for extended stretch of time! Becky was great, very friendly and enthusiastic about dogs.”
“Adia was great with Milo. I could tell when I picked him up that enjoyed his time with her. He normally runs to the car without a look back but this time he actually came back to say bye. I was shocked. Lol. But I will definitely be back. Thanks Adia!”
“Merrell was wonderful! She took such great care of our boy and kept us updated with lots of pictures. He had a great time with her dog too. Would absolutely book again!”
“Qais did a wonderful job watching our pups! He was quick to respond, took frequent videos and was attentive to the special instructions we left him. Highly recommended! We’ll definitely be returning if we ever need doggie daycare again!”
“Perfect pet sitting - great advance communication, pre-boarding meet up to ensure compatibility, and super site photo updates during the stay. Chloe loved playing with Moxie, and we look forward to the next visit!”
“We used Chad for day care before and knew he’d do a wonderful job watching our pup for the week. Badger felt right at home and we got pictures everyday showing him having a great time. I am so comfortable leaving badger with Chad and his family and recommend him highly!!!”

My roommates also love to have furry friends around! I am a full time graduate student with a part time job, but will be home a lot and love to get exercise walking. I also have 5 other roommates who would be happy to help out if I am busy with class. I have a front patio for quality outside time, but it is not fenced. I will be outside with your pet whenever we hang out on the patio, otherwise we will be inside.

“Veronica and her family are the best that I can ask for to take care of our dog, Kora. They did a fantastic job to help Kora come out her shell in a short time during her boarding with them. I got lots of photos and updates to see Kora got spoiled with lots of home made treats, walks, cuddles and play time. I will ask Veronica again if kora needs a sitter again!”
“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 was the best!! My baby loved her and she sent plenty of pics. He came back with all his stuff and litter box cleaned!! Rates are affordable and communication is Top tier. Will book again”
“I had Claire house sit. She spoiled my cats rotten while I was away and took care of my house plants and goldfish pond. She said they call her the "cat whisperer" and I believe her...even the cat who never goes near strangers was sitting in her lap. She kept in touch while I traveled and sent lots of pictures of the cats getting plenty of love and care.”
About: I’ve always been around animals. I got my first dog at age 8 and have always had one since. I love all animals and will love yours like my own. I am a stay at home mom so I have a very flexible schedule. I can house sit or do drop in visits depending on the need. I have a fully fenced backyard on half an acre so there is plenty of space for the dogs to run and have so much fun!
About: I have been caring for pets for 30 years. Not only my own pets, but our friends and families pets. I have rescued many dogs and cats over the years and even a bird or two. The pets have been puppies to seniors. I have trained many to use a bell at the door to go outside and go potty. I can do some basic training.. I have kept up with their training, started training for puppies being held for Christmas gifts, etc.I promise to love, care and cuddle your pets as l do mine. I have always been a stay at home mom since adopting my children. Now that they are 20 and 21, I’m just a homebody. I am able to tend to your babies 24/7. In my home, I will separate my pets as people bring in theirs. When the owners leave, I will introduce them one at a time. I can administer their medicine, do some light grooming, take on walks, and my schnauzer says he will let them play with his ball thrower. Oh, and pets will never be fed together.
“Qais did such an awesome job taking care of my 2 kitties on short notice. His communication with us was excellent, and he sent pictures of my babies while they were in his care. I will definitely rebook with him when the need arises!”
About: I have had cats all my life. I love caring for them and watching them warm up to new people. They don't trust easy like dogs so winning over a cat's affections is always heartwarming. I have experience with giving medication, cleaning litter boxes and more.
“We had never used a dog sitter before so we were a bit nervous. Galilea went above and beyond our expectations. She sent pictures and made the whole process easy. We had a great experience and highly recommend her.”

“Kayla was great! She was such a great sitter for our two dogs! She was super attentive and gave us detailed updates with each visit that included lots of pictures.

About: I've had animals all my life. I've taken care of everything from dogs and cats to lizards and guinea pigs. My dogs are well trained, I have a 2 year old German Shepard and a 9 month old cat currently. They have had plenty of exposure with other animals. I love to interact with new animals and they will be under the best care when with me. I will strive to give your loved ones the attention they need. Im currently working part-time time with a lot of freedom in my scheduling. Pet sitting gets me out of the house and it is mutually rewarding to spend my time caring for animals. My 3 year old German Shepard and 1 yr old cat offer a fun friend to play with. Plenty of toys and treats available. House is big enough to divide spaces if breaks are needed. Schedules are put in place as to ease transitions from one home to the other.
About: I have 6 dogs of my own. I'm not allowed to rescue anymore so this is the next best thing! I am 29 and I love doggos!. Every other week our home is filled with 5 kids. Its like a zoo over here, you might as well let your dog join the party! We have a fenced in backyard, unlimited access to a water bowl, a pool if your dog likes to swim, its fenced in if not so no worries about those who can't swim. I have a love for dogs and they especially keep me busy when the house isnt filled with kids. All our dogs are spayed and neutered so no worries about any accidents. I drive a very large yukon with fold down seats so traveling wont be a problem. I am located about 2 miles from the local vet in case of emergencies and the pet store is right down the road in case you would like your doggo to come back with any extras or you need me to pick up food. I am home all day with the exception early mornings and errands or grocery shopping, etc. so most of my time will be spent with your dog so they can feel comfortable and safe. I have plenty of crates if needed for sleep time. I have a fenced in back yard with toys to play. I make sure to take the pups for walks and that they get plenty of exercise while they are here.

“This was my first Rover experience and I'm so happy I booked with Tracy! My fur baby, Theo, seemed to be well taken care of all day and very entertained. He was tired and content when we came to get him at the end of the day. I couldn't have asked for better! He got to run around outside with her dogs, play, and also some downtime to snuggle. We will see them again, for sure!”
“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.”
About: I’ve grown up with cats and dogs my entire life and began pet sitting for neighbors and family friends around the age of 10. I’ve had a dog of my own for about 6 years now who gets along very well with other dogs and cats. Happy to care for pets of any age and willing to administer medications or provide other special needs to pets if needed. I have a lot of free time in the next couple of months as I am waiting to start a job a few months from now. I will have plenty of time to drop in to check on pets, regular walks, and boarding! I have a very friendly dog that gets along well with cats and dogs alike. I am happy to welcome your pet into my home or come to your home to care for your fur babies too.
“I know that Murray is well cared for with Morgan and Grace! He gets LOTS of playtime and cuddles.❤ And they are very quick in replying to messages when I check in on him during the day. They are great about being flexible with my constantly changing schedule. I will definately be taking Murray back to see them again!!!”
“Gloria was a lifesaver! We needed a last minute dogsitter and she and her family took excellent care of our pup. She was very thorough in the care even for watching him for a short time. I highly recommend her!”
“Taco had a GREAT time!!! Caroline provided pictures throughout the day along with updates of how he was doing. It was a comfort knowing that Taco was in such good hands. I would highly recommend using Caroline -except if it’s a day we want to leave Taco with her!’? We will definitely use Caroline every time we come to Columbia-which will be often over the next few years!!!! Thanks again Caroline-Taco Can’t wait to see you again!!!’”
About: Hi, I’m Sierra! I’ve been around animals my whole life. I have over 10 years of experience in pet care services, and I’m passionate about providing loving and reliable care for your furry friends. I also have a 7 year old dog named Karson who’s super friendly and loves meeting new friends! I work from 8 AM to 4:30 PM on weekdays and have open availability on weekends. On weekdays, I come home during my break to let the dogs out and give them some love. Every day after work, the first thing we do is head outside to play in the yard! I have a pet-friendly house with a privacy fence, so your pet has plenty of space to play and relax safely. I’ll be giving them lots of love and care. I have an extra-large crate available if your dog needs one for any reason.
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember — caring for them isn’t just something I do, it’s something I love. I’ve shared my life with so many kinds of creatures over the years: dogs, cats, horses, goats, chickens, rabbits, birds, fish, hamsters, and even a bearded dragon. Each one has taught me something about presence, trust, and unconditional love. I have a calm, confident energy that helps animals feel safe and seen. I’m comfortable with senior pets, puppies, and those who need medication or special care. I’ve been doing this for over twenty years, and I bring both deep experience and genuine heart to every animal I meet. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, house sitting, and doggy daycare — everything except overnight stays in my home. Whether your pet needs a peaceful companion, an attentive caregiver, or someone who simply gets them, I’ll show up with gentleness, reliability, and real love. As a stay-at-home potter, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets consistent, loving care. I can provide morning and afternoon visits for walks, meals, and play, as well as in-home care during longer stretches while I manage my creative work. Weekends or flexible blocks allow for longer walks, extra playtime, or special needs care. My schedule lets me meet pets’ needs while keeping a calm, attentive presence. I know what it’s like to love your pets like family — I’ve had animals in my life my whole life, and I understand how hard it can be to trust someone else with them. That’s why I bring calm, confident energy and treat every pet as if they were my own. I love caring for pets right in their own home, where they feel safe and comfortable. Being in a familiar space helps them stay relaxed, happy, and stress-free while you’re away. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages — from playful puppies to seniors — and with pets who need medication or special care. Whether it’s walks, playtime, meals, cuddles, or just quiet companionship, I make sure every pet feels loved, safe, and understood. I also keep your home cared for, so you can have peace of mind while you’re gone.
“We needed someone for the day to watch our doodle and Dolly came to the rescue! She was very quick to respond to my messages and very easy to coordinate drop off/ pick up times. We are very appreciative and Stevie enjoyed her stay!!”
“Maggie was fantastic. We needed someone to watch our dog, Teddy, for part of the day while we were visiting from out of town. Maggie was quick to respond when I initially reached out and made sure she knew everything she would need to take care of our dog for his stay. Teddy can get nervous when we leave him, but Maggie and her dog were the perfect companions for him. Teddy was in a great mood when we picked him up, and we would definitely leave him with Maggie again if we are back in the area.”
About: I personally take the responsibility of caring for someone’s pet. I truly treat every dog like family. I have hands-on experience caring for puppies, including helping them learn routines with patience and positive reinforcement. I’m also very gentle and attentive with senior dogs and cats making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and never rushed. My experience babysitting and volunteering at CPR classes has taught me to be responsible, observant, and calm in any situation. As a Sports Medicine major at Voorhees University, I also understand the importance of movement, safety, and overall well-being. I naturally pay attention to a pets behavior, energy level, and comfort. I especially love caring for strong, affectionate, pets and I enjoy building trust with every dog I meet. Pet parents can relax knowing their dog is getting patient care, attention, and lots of love while they’re away. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I plan my days around responsibility and consistency. I keep a structured schedule, so feeding times, walks, playtime, and check-ins are always planned and never rushed. During the week, I build time into my mornings and evenings for walks, exercise, and making sure each dog is comfortable and doing well. On weekends, I have even more flexibility for longer visits, extra playtime, and companionship. My experience babysitting has made me very used to planning ahead, staying attentive, and sticking to routines that help others feel safe and cared for. Caring for animals doesn’t feel like an extra task to me — it’s something I genuinely enjoy. I especially make sure every dog gets consistent attention, patience, and lots of love. I provide pets with a safe, comfortable, and loving environment, following their daily routines for feeding, exercise, and bathroom breaks. I monitor their behavior and health closely, addressing any concerns promptly. I keep their space clean and engaging, providing toys, affection, or play based on their personality. I also communicate with owners about updates and special instructions to ensure consistent, high-quality care.
About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life from strays to fosters to pet sitting and my own pets. I have incredibly friendly pets that will make yours feel at home and I’m excellent at potty training puppies I’ve had several of my own over the years!

I have a fenced in yard, friendly cats and dogs and about a million toys for any pet, as well as private rooms they can hang in if they prefer to be alone and a cozy guest crate for pups if you like your beans crated at night or for any reason :)
“I can't say enough wonderful things about Kim and her husband Mickey. They responded immediately and was so helpful and friendly. Even worked with my unknown hours. They cared for my 7 month old puppy Luke he was a KING! They had great, well behaved dogs that he loved and played with non stop. They always lake them to sog parks and my puppy is exausted when we get home which is wonderful because so are we. I am so blessed to have met them and their sweetness for my puppy and helping us find places to eat or see around the new town. Thor ( our puppy) now knows when we go towards their place and races up to their door. Mickey loves the animals as much or maybe more than Kim which is incredible they both adore animals so much. Kim is so helpful and always willing to accommodate any need. I wouldn't use anyone else!!!!”

“Oralee is excellent and patient with my new rescue pup Jasper. Her communication is top notch when she is taking care of him while I’m at work. He is such a sweet shy boy and she has put him at ease on their walks.”
“Martina has been extremely reliable and patient. She’s always communicative during the walks and keeps me updated, which I really appreciate.

About: My names Jaylon I’m a college student with a husky and a Yorke. I’ve raised them and a litter on my own and I’ve had them for a couple years.

About: I've had animals all my life. I've taken care of everything from dogs and cats to lizards and guinea pigs. My dogs are well trained, I have a 2 year old German Shepard and a 9 month old cat currently. They have had plenty of exposure with other animals. I love to interact with new animals and they will be under the best care when with me. I will strive to give your loved ones the attention they need. Im currently working part-time time with a lot of freedom in my scheduling. Pet sitting gets me out of the house and it is mutually rewarding to spend my time caring for animals. My 3 year old German Shepard and 1 yr old cat offer a fun friend to play with. Plenty of toys and treats available. House is big enough to divide spaces if breaks are needed. Schedules are put in place as to ease transitions from one home to the other.

“Martina took such good care of my fur baby, Murray. Her communication was excellent, she regularly sent me pictures and updates. Murray had some separation anxiety and I did come pick him up a day early. But he was sad to leave and started whining when I put my car in reverse to back out of the driveway. We accidentally left behind his water bowl and a toy, when we returned to pick up our forgotten items he ran out of my car, up onto the porch and sat at Martina's front door. He loved staying with Martina and playing with her son”
“Lexie took amazing care of my lab! She is incredibly detail-oriented during the intake process and clearly passionate about dogs. Her professionalism really stood out. The pack-dog environment she provides (just as advertised) was perfect for my super-friendly and playful lab, who thrived in her care. I couldn’t be happier with the experience and am so grateful to have found Lexie. I will absolutely be bringing my fur baby back!”
“This was our first time ever leaving our dog ! He is 14 months and still quite the puppy. Tracy and her family were amazing and I looked forward to the fun pictures she sent. I know Jeter had a fun time ! So very happy with everything !”
“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.”
