“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.”
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.
“Angela and Rick truly loved on our Harley. They welcomed Harley into their home as if she was family. Even allowed her on their furniture. They took and sent daily pictures of Harley making herself at home. It was awsome not having to worry about Harley. Harley definitely made new friends. I would highly recommend Angela and Rick to care for your fur babies. We will be booking with them again! Thank you Rover.com for connecting us to Angela and Rick!!!”
“We were extremely pleased with Kimi taking care of our dog. We appreciated the regular updates she gave us along with pictures. We also appreciated her willingness to work with us when the stay needed to be extended. We would definitely recommend her!”
“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.”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life! Growing up with my grandparents, we’ve had 5 dogs and 3 cats at one time. I’m used to many different breeds from small dogs to larger dogs like a German Shepard Husky Mix. I currently have a 1 year old mixed breed (Medium Size: 50 lb) dog! I’m not sure exactly what breed he is but is listed in my profile :) I am home full time, I have one dog that is my ESA and he goes outside when he wants to, has a morning and evening feeding schedule and I clip his nails & bathe him every other week. Dogs are allowed on furniture & bed. I have a mid-size fenced in backyard with turf grass, safe for pets to run around and play in. I have plenty of balls, toys, and bones for pets to chew, and plenty of treats!
“Ash was fantastic with my Pomeranian Ava! Planning a wedding is stressful and Ash watched Ava the weekend we got married. We weren’t worried about her at all. She sent us pics of her and Ava was a happy girl. We would highly recommend her to watch your pets! Thank you Ash!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️”
“This was the first time my girl stayed away from home and with someone that was not family! I am very happy with my experience. Would recommend to others and use again myself! Communication superb!”
“Bronson and I can’t say enough good things about his time at Julie’s. ( I spent a lot of time in the Clemson area while my son was in college. I wish I knew about Julie then). I was back down this week for a family funeral. My 8 year plus 120 lb lab Bronson isn’t kennel material because he needs real grass. Julie provided him a home away from home. She didn’t shy away from his size and her 13 year old dog Duncan made him feel right at home and even shared his toys. I would recommend Julie to anyone needing a home away from home for their pup. She provided pics and updates which made me feel secure that he was in a loving home.”
About: Your pet’s comfort is my priority, I have over 20 years experience owning and caring for pets. I bring a reliable, structured approach to pet care. I have hands‑on experience with training and reinforcing good habits through consistency and positive engagement. I am able to recognize signs of stress. So to the greatest extent possible, I will follow established feeding, walking, and bedtime routines to keep pets grounded while you’re away. I’m confident with younger pets who like to test boundaries giving them the opportunity to make good choices. I'm patient and attentive with senior pets, including those who need slower pacing or extra reassurance, and I’m able to administer medications safely per directions. I treat every animal like they're my family, giving them the same structure and affection they’re used to at home. I work full time from home which allows me to provide attentive and consistent care. Although I work from home and my schedule is relatively flexible, I maintain standard office hours and have client calls throughout the day. Morning or lunchtime drop-offs and pick-ups are preferred if possible. Mornings between 730am and 9am and mid-day between 12pm-1pm are best. if afternoon drop offs/pick-ups are required, my schedule generally allows for that between 4pm-5pm. I take classes approximately four days a week so am generally unavailable for drop‑offs and pick‑ups between 5:30pm - 8:30pm due to the scheduled class times. However, with enough advanced notice I may be able to accommodate your need. if you have questions or a unique situation, please reach out. We truly love your pets like our own and would love for them to come stay with us. Welcome to our home—where pets are family and comfort comes first. My spouse and I recently moved to the Anderson county area and are still in the process of getting settled. I have always had pets in my life. I love their companionship, affection, loyalty, good nature, and adventurous spirit. I provide a loving home where your pets are treated like family. I live in a single‑family home with a fenced yard. I work from home, giving me a flexible schedule for attentive and consistent care. Our household is slower‑paced, making it an ideal environment for senior dogs and small to medium companions who enjoy a calm, cozy routine. Consistent structure and routine are critical for our pets to relax and enjoy themselves. I understand this and am committed to maintaining routines that you have established for your companion. We love to field trip and go hike state parks and gentle trails on the weekends. Everyone's time is limited on this spinning space-rock so we think it's important to give them all the love we can while we're here and to allow them to make their own memories; to enjoy new experiences and new environments. I share my home with my wife (who arguably loves pets more than I do ;), a friendly and sociable 4-year-old female beagle/lab mix 30lbs and one senior female domestic short hair cat. So it’s important that your pet is comfortable with and gets along with other animals. However, if your animal requires some level of isolation due to medical reasons, I have the space to accommodate. For everyone's safety and comfort there are a few things that need to be in place. I only take one client at a time. With that, I insist we have an initial meet and greet. So that the first time your loved one meets me is not in a strange or stressful environment. This makes sure we all (pets included) have a chance to meet and make sure we mesh. Unfortunately, I cannot accept unneutered males or females in heat. all pets must be current on vaccines and be on flea prevention—experience has taught me that prevention is far easier than eradication. Although my schedule is flexible, I maintain standard office hours so have client calls throughout the day. Morning or lunch time drop offs and pick-ups are preferred if possible. Mornings between 730am and 9am and mid-day between 12pm-1pm are best. if afternoon drop offs/pick-ups are required, my schedule generally allows for that between 4pm-5pm. I take classes approximately four days a week so am generally unavailable for drop‑offs and pick‑ups between 5:30pm - 8:30pm due to the scheduled class times. However, with enough advanced notice I may be able to accommodate changes. if you have questions, please reach out. We truly love your pets like our own and would love for them to come stay with us.

About: I'm a cat-person at heart. They make my heart feel full. Even the grumpy ones. My cat, Marv had hypothyroidism and chronic kidney disease in his later years. I have plenty of experience administering his bi-daily medications as well as his measuring out his prescription food. Your cat(s) can expect the same love and care as if they were my own.

About: What sets me apart is my calm, patient approach and genuine love for animals. I specialize in overnight care, ensuring pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I'm experienced with senior pets who need extra attention and gentle care, as well as energetic puppies that require structured routines and basic training reinforcement. Whether it’s administering medication, sticking to special diets, or just offering extra cuddles, I tailor my care to meet each pet’s unique needs. You can rest easy knowing your pet is in caring, capable hands. Pet care is a big part of my daily routine, and I make it a priority in my schedule. I’m available for overnight stays during the week and weekends, and I plan my days around the pets I care for—whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or medication. I maintain a calm, consistent environment to help pets feel secure, and I give updates regularly so you know how your pet is doing. I’m flexible and can adjust to meet your pet’s usual routine to keep them happy and stress-free. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. When caring for pets in your home, I create a calm, secure, and familiar environment by following your routines closely—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I’m always mindful of safety, keeping doors, gates, and potential hazards in check, and I never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations. I provide regular updates with photos and messages, so you can feel confident and connected while you're away. Building trust—with both you and your pet—is at the heart of how I care.
About: I’ve had both dogs and cats my whole life! My current pet, Gus, is a pomeranian-bichon. Im experienced in dog sitting and training. Fun fact, i’ve also had fancy mice before! I’d love to ease your mind and give your babies the care they need when you’re unable to.
About: Since adopting my first cat at age 8, there has not been a time in my life where I have not had the blessing of having my own cat(s) as my best friends. Although I try to be unbiased, I would absolutely consider myself a cat person and enjoy spending time with each one that I get to meet. With the recent passing of my beloved elderly cat, Silver, who was my whole heart and needed special care, I no longer have one of my own to care for and would be delighted to share my love and time with your feline friend(s). With my experience caring for cats of all breeds, ages, and needs, I would be a purrrfect sitter for your fur baby.
“Nicole was wonderful! She responded at the last minute (great communication) and took great care of our boy Teddy! We will definitely use her again when we are back at Clemson! Thank you so much!”
“Graham has done stop-in visits for our sometimes ill-tempered Havanese this summer and she does a wonderful job. He is old and often cranky and she took on the challenge to bond with him. Lots of effort there. She is very flexible and reliable. Great communicator. Really love and appreciate having her.”

“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!”

I specialize in geriatric dogs and have experience with diabetic and special needs dogs, including insulin injections and medications.

You’ll get a message every day from your dog with a picture or two, because who doesn’t want to hear from their dog while they’re away? At the end of their stay, you’ll also get a full report on how everything went. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away knowing your dog is safe, comfortable, loved, and being cared for like one of my own. I currently work from home, and have a flexible schedule. I have a fenced in back yard, and 1 dog of my own. All pets must be fully vaccinated with paper work for verification. Schedule consists of potty breaks every 2-3 hrs. Quite home, great for older dogs that just want love, and lots of rest. 100% coverage, never left alone. Quite home, with lots of love and rest time. Looking for that perfect fit for your dog in a chill environment, we are the place for you.
“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.”
“Sad Rover wouldn’t let me tip higher! We love Jennifer! We have used her for both over night boarding and daycare service. She has been great about sending pictures and updates. Our boys always come home tired for days! Can’t wait to use her again :)”

“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.”
“Lisa was wonderful with our dog Minnie! She sent us pictures of her making friends with the resident pups and made sure to ask about care instructions, such as feeding and potty routines. We were very grateful that she offered to do a meet and greet so that Minnie could meet her dogs and get comfortable. We haven’t had our dog for very long and we were a little anxious about leaving her with a sitter for the first time, but we felt so comfortable leaving Minnie in her care and definitely plan to come back!”
“Haley was amazing! We felt at ease from the moment we met her and her daughter. They took excellent care of our fur baby. We had pictures and updates throughout Sassy’s stay which was so nice. Highly recommended their services I can’t wait to use her again”

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!

“This was the first “home” visit for Brandy. Roman and Jasmine made us feel secure in leaving her for several hours. This was also our first Rover experience. It is much more expensive than daycare in Charlotte but at least the option was available.”

About: Our house was like a zoo growing up, so I've always been around a wide range of animals, from dogs, cats, horses, cows, you name it! For that reason, I have loads of experience with animals. Yet, other than my own animals I have only been sitting as needed for family or neighbors. I’m currently working a part time job while going to school.

I can walk, feed, water, clean, stay over and have as many play dates as you ask.

About: Growing up, my family always had at least two dogs at all times. Although I don’t have a dog of my own, I love taking care of and spending time with other people’s dogs. 🩷 I am a teacher by day (Aug-end of May) and dog sitter on the side! I love kids but dogs truly have my heart. The bigger, the better! I am a teacher, so I will be gone from 6:30am-3:30pm. I have watched dogs while I’ve been at school who are used to be alone for an extended amount of time but but I will walk them prior to leaving for work and then spend the evening with them once I get home. :) ***If your dog isn’t used to being alone while I would be at work, I do have someone who can check on your pet and also take them out midday while I’m at work! :) Although I do not have a fenced in yard, my neighborhood community has a fenced in dog park area to give your dog(s) the space and freedom to roam as needed. :)

“I am in the military so long days are inevitable. Mary was very helpful and flexible to my constantly changing schedule. I am tremendously grateful. It’s is noticeable how much Chewie enjoys walking with Mary with the way he greats her.”
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.
About: I am a 31 year old dog mom and dog lover. I currently work from home so my schedule is very flexible! I do have my own dog but she does not always have to be with me. I have grown up with dogs all my life and have taken care of family pets and friends dogs while they are away frequently. I will care, love, and cuddle your dog just as you would! Your pet is in good hands with me! I work from home so my schedule is very flexible! I can do drop in, home sitting, or walks. I will care for your pup like they are my own. I will care for your pets like they are my own! I love to go for walks, snuggle, and play outside. Anything I can do to make your dog comfortable.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for most of my life. At 13, I started a neighborhood dog-walking business for owners who were “too pooped to walk their dogs,” which quickly grew into in-home and overnight dog sitting. I got my first dog at age ten and trained her myself, and I’ve since attended multiple dog training classes because I genuinely enjoy working with dogs. Over the years, I’ve cared for labs, golden doodles, pit bulls, and more for families that I have worked with through high school and college. Now that I have my own home (next to a park) I’m excited to start again with plenty of space, structure, and love for every pup. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I’m an emergency nurse and work every Monday and Tuesday and every other weekend, which gives me most weekdays free and flexible for walks, drop-ins, and sitting. On my off days, I enjoy staying active with walking, running, and hiking, and I love including dogs in those activities for both exercise and enrichment. I plan my schedule carefully to ensure every pet receives consistent attention, timely care, and plenty of love. Safety and trust are my top priorities. As an emergency nurse, I have strong medical training and stay calm and attentive in all situations, including emergencies. I closely follow pet parents’ instructions and routines in both my home and theirs, ensuring a low-stress, loving environment. I provide supervised play, secure walks, and plenty of mental and physical stimulation. Living next to a park gives dogs safe space to explore, exercise, and enjoy structured outdoor time while always being carefully monitored.
About: I’ve had both dogs and cats my whole life! My current pet, Gus, is a pomeranian-bichon. Im experienced in dog sitting and training. Fun fact, i’ve also had fancy mice before! I’d love to ease your mind and give your babies the care they need when you’re unable to. I am working Part-Time, so on days that I work, i can be available before 10, and after 7:30. On days when I’m off, I can do anytime! I have a fenced in yard that accommodates my 3 dogs here at home. We also take care of several strays in the neighborhood that have a little sanctuary on the front porch.
About: Hi, I’m Haley! I live in Anderson, SC, and I work remotely as an insurance agent. When I’m not at my desk, I’m usually with my 15-year-old daughter. We’re on this pet care adventure together. She’s in high school, absolutely obsessed with animals, and has the biggest heart, and will always be under my direct supervision. I’ve been around pets for nearly three decades, and she’s grown up with them from the start. Between the two of us, your pets get plenty of love, attention, and care. In addition to drop-ins and walks, I also welcome dogs into our home for boarding and daycare. I make sure their stay is calm, comfortable, and closely aligned with the routine they’re used to. It’s important to me that every dog feels safe and settled while they’re here. We do have two friendly dogs at home who are used to sharing their space. I always introduce new pets slowly and with care to make sure everyone feels comfortable. I work remotely and have a flexible schedule, so I’m available any day for drop-in visits or dog walks. I usually prefer a little notice to plan ahead, but I’m open to last-minute requests when I can make it work. When pets stay with us, they’re in a calm, quiet home with plenty of attention and supervision. I introduce new dogs slowly and make sure everyone feels safe before sharing space. For in-home visits, I always follow your instructions exactly; meals, meds, gates, anything you need. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always respect your home and your rules.
About: I have three rescue dogs, including a senior dog and a puppy. I’m very used to caring for anxious dogs. For kitty owners, I’ve had family cats I cared for up until I was 16! I’m a recent college grad taking time at home with my parents & doggies while job searching! I currently work a retail job, and am unavailable on select days. However, I may still be able to do a check-in/walk depending on the time— so just ask! I can crate dogs as needed, follow any mealtime and medication procedures and will prioritize playtime with your animals! Each of my three pets are vastly different and each have their own schedules and procedures. Just let me know what works best for your pet!

“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.”
“We were extremely pleased with Kimi taking care of our dog. We appreciated the regular updates she gave us along with pictures. We also appreciated her willingness to work with us when the stay needed to be extended. We would definitely recommend her!”
“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.”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life! Growing up with my grandparents, we’ve had 5 dogs and 3 cats at one time. I’m used to many different breeds from small dogs to larger dogs like a German Shepard Husky Mix. I currently have a 1 year old mixed breed (Medium Size: 50 lb) dog! I’m not sure exactly what breed he is but is listed in my profile :) I am home full time, I have one dog that is my ESA and he goes outside when he wants to, has a morning and evening feeding schedule and I clip his nails & bathe him every other week. Dogs are allowed on furniture & bed. I have a mid-size fenced in backyard with turf grass, safe for pets to run around and play in. I have plenty of balls, toys, and bones for pets to chew, and plenty of treats!
“This was the first time my girl stayed away from home and with someone that was not family! I am very happy with my experience. Would recommend to others and use again myself! Communication superb!”
“Bronson and I can’t say enough good things about his time at Julie’s. ( I spent a lot of time in the Clemson area while my son was in college. I wish I knew about Julie then). I was back down this week for a family funeral. My 8 year plus 120 lb lab Bronson isn’t kennel material because he needs real grass. Julie provided him a home away from home. She didn’t shy away from his size and her 13 year old dog Duncan made him feel right at home and even shared his toys. I would recommend Julie to anyone needing a home away from home for their pup. She provided pics and updates which made me feel secure that he was in a loving home.”

“My two dogs loved it, they had plenty of space to roam & play fetch. They were so excited to see us, as if to say “we had a great time”. Such a great location, 2 fenced acres to run & play! Pepper sent pictures & video, great comfort. We were traveling to Greenville for a conference & had no idea what to expect. Very happy.”
“I have finally found someone I trust Completely with our beloved senior cat Lilybelle. Lauren and her husband provided a Safe, comfortable and spacious home Away from home for her and the photos Show how relaxed she was. I can’t say Enough about how satisfied we are to have Found them.”
“Jennifer was wonderful with Snoopy. Her home is really set up as a doggie haven. She sent updates and pictures each day - and treated him like her own. Couldn’t have asked for better care.”
About: I've had pets my whole life. My family had a hobby farm when I was growing up. Between myself, my husband, and our daughter we currently have 14 pets. Dogs, cats, ducks, and several reptiles. I especially have a heart for shy/anxious dogs and elderly dogs. I keep dogs for a living, so I am here to meet their needs. My days revolve around my pets and yours. I'm with the dogs throughout most of the day, so I can provide frequent supervision, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and individualized attention. My schedule is also pretty flexible, which helps me to accommodate pickup and drop-off times that work best for pet parents. We have a fenced yard for play time, a climate controlled building for relaxation, and a boat load of love for all things furry. I tailor play time and relaxation time to each dog's individual needs.
“Bailey has stayed with Shayne and Jonathan a couple of times and every time Bailey has come home happy and worn out. They are responsible and send updates while Bailey is staying with them. Never had any issues with scheduling or instructions. They are a wonderful couple that are professional and caring. Would highly recommend.”
“There aren't enough stars for a rating! Fabienne was just fabulous in every way. I received many photos so I knew my 12 year old lab was in good hands. She wrapped him in a thunder shirt during a thunder storm, gave him lots of love, and even forgave him for getting into her garbage!”
