“Saffron watched my puppy for a few days while I had to go out of town, and it was great. She sent me videos and pictures the whole time so I never had to worry how she was doing. Definitely recommend her!”
“I love David and his family. They are so caring and always very easy to work your schedule around for drop off and pick up. I appreciate the updates and photos of our fire babies. Trustworthy and very responsible. I am very thankful and appreciative of everything they do.”
“This was Penelope's first stay with Jennifer. I was very pleased with her care and attention to Penelope. I feel fortunate to have found Jennifer and look forward to working with you in the future.”
“Jessica was great with Roo and Charlie! She sent us pictures throughout their stay and made us feel completely at ease leaving them. Both dogs seemed to get along really well with her pup, and she handled Roo’s extra puppy energy without any issue. We really appreciated the updates and would definitely feel comfortable booking with Jessica again.”
“From our meet and greet to the pickup, our experience with Tara and her family was outstanding. Her three boys were so sweet and playful with our golden and I know she had the best time during her stay. Tara kept us in touch with daily photos and updates which reassured us Lacie was well taken care of. We will definitely be using her again in the near future!”
“Such an absolute blessing! The care and consideration taken for my big beautiful dobbie. Aurora absolutely had the time of her life with Kernix, Travis, and of course Josie. Each day she kept us updated with pictures and videos of our girl having the time of her life. When you leave a loved one in the care of someone you often worry about them. But not with Kernix and family. Never a doubt in our mind that our pup was being cared for with the most love we could ask for.”
“They seemed like very caring and loving people. They sent me many pictures over the time they had them and it was very appreciated. My dogs were well taken care of and had lots of room in there yard to roam and enjoy there time. Definitely rate them a 5.”
“Michelle took excellent care of our energetic puppy Harper. We are so relieved to have found such a reliable person that we can trust to take care of our pet(s) so that we do not need to worry when we are away. Bonus, Harper had the best time following Michelle's dog Pheobe around and was able to learn so much about being with another dog. We look forward to having Michelle take care of Harper again.”
“Laetitia was absolutely amazing!!!!! Our dog had the best time and we loved all of the updates and pictures we received. We are so grateful to have found such an amazing caretaker for our sweet doggy when we are away!”
“We couldn’t be more grateful for Genny and the care she provided to our newly rescued dog while we were away! From the start, it was clear he was in good hands. Genny has such a deep love for her "fur babies," and it was evident that she treated our dog as her own (she also has the sweetest little dog that makes everyone feel at home). Our dog was still adjusting to his new life, and we were hesitant about leaving him with anyone during such a sensitive time, especially since we had already planned a two-week trip before we decided to adopt him. But Genny handled everything with so much love, patience, and grace. She truly created the perfect environment for him to rest, relax, and ease into his new routine- even helped him learn basic commands. We loved receiving daily photos and updates that gave us peace of mind knowing that he was getting all the attention and care he needed. The kindness and exceptional care she provided made all the difference, and we’ll definitely be using her services again in the future. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate sitter who goes above and beyond.”
“Stephen & Jessica take such good care of Grace. She’s always excited to go see them & the boys Nubes & Oakley. They even had a birthday party for her !”
“Manik and his wife were amazing, everything was excellent great communication and we could tell Blu enjoyed his stay. Manik sent videos and pictures interacting outside with Blu reassuring us that he wasn’t locked in a room or kennel all day, that was my biggest concern from past Rover sitters. I would highly recommend this family and definitely book again .”
“My boy is almost 12 and I have never left him with a stranger. I was new to the process and didn't have any idea of what was going on and I wasn't very keen on the idea of having to leave him with a stranger. Fortunately, Kristin was very responsive and kind about the whole thing, which was very reassuring. I got picture updates daily and even videos. The neighborhood was very nice, her home was clean and organized, she had a fenced in yard, twin boys which I am sure my dog loved to be around, and the a sweet weiner dog. My dog has specific feeding and meds, which she accommodated. I didn't want him to be alone when I was gone and picking Kristin was perfect.”
“Leo, an older, a little nervous, terrier was welcomed by Marina and both her dogs immediately. Lots of pictures were sent showing Leo doing all the things he loves to do. I'm very happy to have found her and fully plan on taking Leo on another vacation to Marina's. Thank you!”
“Hannah was so kind and our energetic dog had a great time with her. Hannah saved us with a last minute request and was so great with pictures and communication. We will definitely use her services again!”
“Alexis and John took great care of my boys (both are Dachshunds). Alexis sent daily photos and kept in contact the whole time. This was our first time boarding them with a service like Rover, so I was pretty nervous since one of our boys has IVDD and the other had not been boarded in at least four years. They received their joint medicine and got plenty of cuddles. I would not hesitate to use them again.”
“Caitlin very kindly booked a last minute boarding for my Golden Retriever. Her communication was thorough, and even though she kept him for a bit over 24 hours, I still received multiple updates. So grateful!”
“Alyssa was great! Very responsive and friendly, sent plenty of updates and pictures, and my dog looked very happy and at home while under her care. Highly recommend!”
About: Our family raised and cared for our 15 year old Miniature Schnauzer baby until she recently passed the rainbow bridge. We have opened our home to puppies and adult dogs since her passing and have loved spoiling all of the babies big and small, young and old! I work from home and am able to provide constant love and attention to your babies inside the home. I also am extremely flexible and can come visit your babies at the times you request in your home and spend time with them outside or out of their crate. I have a fenced back yard and a neighborhood with sidewalks where I can walk with your babies if you want them to stay with me. If you choose to keep your baby at your home I will make sure they have love, exercise and time outside of their crate.

“I went looking for a Rover sitter very early in the morning and she had already updated when she was available. That alone convinced me to book her. The meet and greet went well and I knew that she would take great care of my babies. She is simply the best. My "vampire kitty" looked well cared for in the pictures she sent me. Next time I need a sitter, Mya will be my choice.”
“Brandy was terrific. My cat immediately warmed up to her, which is uncommon and I truly appreciate that Brandy helped me out over a holiday weekend. She provided great pictures and updates and everything was in perfect shape!”
“Zoe is amazing! She took amazing care of my cat and gave me peace of mind my whole trip. Not only did she go above and beyond to make sure my kitty was taken care and happy of but also made sure my house was looked after. Great communication and detailed updates with every visit. Would absolutely book again!”
“Dawn is great! very friendly and approachable. she's very flexible too. I originally got the dates wrong and she had no problem rescheduling for the correct dates. she even offered me half off the rate that Rover initially suggested. Will 100% be booking her again!”
“Gillian was so kind and loving to Jafar while we were away. Not only was she responsive and adaptable, she sent tons of photos and detailed notes so we felt like he was in good hands. Thanks so much Gillian!”
About: Hi! I currently work at home and love pets. I have experience with dogs and exotic pets like rabbits as well. We had a cocker spaniel for 12 years that passed last year, and since we have a golden and a puppy as well. All are up to date on vaccines and very lovable. You pet will be well cared for. We live in a gated community and have a 1/2 acre lot with a fenced in yard. I'd love to watch your pet! We have gates available and a doggie door, so we can keep the dogs separated, if requested. That is not a problem at all! I have 3 kids, but they are not home during the day (on weekdays), so it'll just be me to love on them! On weekends, they can provide some extra snuggles! I'm open and available all week! Drop offs and even possibly pickups. Just let me know what you need and I can work with you. Fenced in yard and gated neighborhood. I can board for short or longer stays, do walks, and give your animal lots of attention. I can give medications if need be as well. I stay home and the dogs fall into the same routine as my own two. If you have any special needs, I can accommodate them for you! I take special care of each pet in their own unique way. Just let me know of what you desire for your pets stay and I am happy to meet it!
About: I have been petsitting/housesitting for years as I did through high school for many of my neighbors and family friends! I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and needs so they feel comfortable and cared for. My schedule is currently flexible and varies week to week. I am in school and working part time, making me available during the weekdays after 2pm and anytime during the weekends! I have always loved pets and enjoy caring for others when their owners are away! My goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and happy! I would also love to keep you updated with photos and messages so you know your pet is well cared for. 🐾
About: I have had cats in my family my entire life. Additionally, as a veterinary assistant, I see a variety of different patients every day! People who don't like cats just don't understand them. I have always loved cats, and I can't wait to meet yours!
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Jordyn. She took amazing care of my senior dog, Lucky, who is both blind and deaf, and treated him with so much patience, love, and understanding. Before the actual sitting, Jordyn even came by to meet Lucky and go over his routines and special instructions, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing they truly cared about getting everything right. It’s not easy to find someone who understands the needs of an older pet, but Jordyn went above and beyond — keeping Lucky comfortable, calm, and safe the entire time.”
About: I have two dogs that LOVE other dogs , & I as well LOVE other dogs! We live 5 minutes away from the dog park , so we’re constantly taking the pups out to play and get some energy out ! I’m a stay at home mom , so I’m home 24/7 , so your fur babies will never be home alone , they’ll constantly be watched ! I’ll bathe if they get dirty under my supervision ! I’ve watched dogs since middle school , so I have plenty of experience! We’re also a 5 minute drive away from a vet Incase something happens (not saying something will, just for safety). We also LOVE hiking , so your babies would get a lot of exercise ! I have a huge backyard, which every dog seems to enjoy! I will watch up to 2-3dogs, as long as they’re good with the dogs I have over :) *PITBULLS*. Purebred pitbulls don’t like my husky, SO, if a meet and greet isn’t set up I can’t watch him/her. If we set up a meet and greet and they do great, that’s awesome, let’s book!; if not, I can’t watch your fur baby.

About: I take the time to understand every dog’s personality—whether they’re shy, energetic, or somewhere in between—so each walk or visit feels safe, fun, and tailored just for them. Communication is a big priority for me too; you’ll always get clear updates, photos, and notes after every outing. Pet care is a natural part of my day-to-day life, and my schedule is very flexible, which means I can easily accommodate walks. Whether it’s early-morning outings, midday potty breaks, or evening strolls, I’m able to adjust my routine to fit yours. Your pet’s comfort and consistency always come first. I stick to your dog’s routine, providing safe, consistent walks tailored to their energy and needs. Each walk includes attention, patience, and clear updates so you always know how they did.
About: I have had to take care of puppies since I was 9 years old and throughout out my teenager years until adulthood. I cared for the most sensitive dogs including English bull dogs, Boxers and Doberman Pinchers. I also rescued stray dogs . I have also nourished my sick dog back to health when doctor had no diagnosis. He was given a death sentence but I cured him. I am well versed in the expected health of dogs and I have resuscitated a few puppies who were near death . I am flexible because I work remotely part time . I make time for my own dogs daily by allowing them to play out back and they have plenty of toys and attention needed daily . I treat animals like part of the family . I have a fenced in yard and have a smaller dog and a trainer dog that helps younger dogs behave .My trainer Nessa helps small or younger dogs with behavioral issues .
“Because my dog has always been anxious and aggressive towards strangers, I was hesitant to find him a sitter. Jade and Joshua made us feel confident and comfortable at the meet and greet, and my dog immediately warmed up to them. My spouse and I could tell that Bo-lin felt safe, and that's all I wanted in a sitter. Joshua and Jade are experienced, confident, attentive, and attuned to what we and Bo-lin needed. We look forward to having him get used to their dogs and coming out of his shell!”
About: Hey! I’m Kristin 🩷 a stay-at-home mom and a lifelong Lowcountry local, CofC grad, and a big-time animal lover! I live in Summers Corner in Summerville, SC with my husband, twin boys, and our dachshund weenie. We have a fully fenced-in yard, lots of room to play, and a cozy environment perfect for dogs. I have a flexible schedule and can easily work around your needs. References are always available if you’d like to chat with other happy pet parents! Whether your pup loves fetch, belly rubs, or just a sunny spot to nap, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. 💛 As a stay-at-home mom with a flexible schedule, I’m home most of the day and can easily give your pet consistent attention, playtime, and care throughout the day. In my home, pets are treated like family! I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where they can feel comfortable and secure. I stick closely to your pet’s routine, whether that means scheduled feedings, regular potty breaks, walks, medication, or downtime. We have a fully fenced-in yard for supervised outdoor play, and a senior dachshund who is gentle and used to sharing his space. I never leave pets unattended for long and always pay close attention to each animal’s comfort, energy level, and needs. I have experience with crate-trained dogs, senior pets, and puppies, and I adjust my care to match what each pet needs, whether it’s more activity, quiet time, or a little extra patience. I also provide plenty of updates and photos so you always know your pet is safe and happy. In a client’s home, I’m respectful, reliable, and committed to keeping your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible. Your pet will be treated with the same love and attention I give my own.
“I really appreciate Alice taking Duke in last minute. She kept me updated and Duke was the same happy pup when I picked him up, which is very important to me. Will definitely use her again.”
About: I bring experience and love. I have cared for a senior dog and two cats so I know the patience and attention needed for all stages of life. I love animals and will treat your furry friend like my own. I cannot watch certain breeds such as American bullies, pit bulls, cane corsos, etc because one of my daughters are scared of those type of dogs I am currently a stay at home mom so I am able to make our schedule whatever it needs to be to properly care for your animals while you are away. I have a large backyard with a privacy fence so they can run around as much as they want. If your furbaby wants to sleep in or out of a kennel that is fine. They will have the freedom to sleep where they like.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for the past two years and truly enjoy building trust with each one. I have experience walking, feeding, playing, and providing basic care for dogs of different sizes and personalities. I’m patient, attentive, and always make sure dogs feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand that every dog has unique needs, and I take the time to follow routines and instructions closely so pet parents can feel confident their dog is in good hands. I am home seven days a week since I attend school online. Even when I need to run errands, I am usually gone for no more than two hours at a time. This allows me to provide frequent supervision, attention, and care. When I am not home, my wife is also available to help care for the pets, so they are never left alone for long. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment for every dog in my care. I have a large, fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play and get exercise under supervision. I closely follow each pet’s routine, instructions, and any special needs provided by the owner. Dogs are always supervised, given plenty of attention, and treated with patience and respect so they feel comfortable, secure, and cared for at all times.
“Oreo had the BEST time! He usually is very antisocial and is scared of other dogs, but he had made friends with Cleo (Lizzy's dog). He also comes back from doggy daycares stressed and overwhelmed, but he seemed so refreshed and happy when he came back:) Would definitely recommend Lizzy as the best dogsitter!”
“Jay is always looking forward to his days with Rebecca. She is amazing with him and has open communication with me throughout the day about his stay. I would highly recommend Rebecca.”
About: I absolutely adore pups of every size and personality! At home, I have a Shih Tzu, a Dalmatian (we thought he was a Lab until we did DNA testing!), and a sweet little Chihuahua. Each one is so different, but together they make the perfect pack. All of my dogs came from tough beginnings, but their resilience and ability to love inspires me every day. Giving them a safe, happy, and loving home has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. I would treat your pets just like my own—keeping them safe, cared for, and comfortable while giving them all the love and attention they deserve. Whether it’s cuddles, playtime, or just making sure their needs are fully met, I’ll make sure your furry family members feel right at home. I’m a proud pet parent to three wonderful rescue pups, and I honestly couldn’t love them more. Watching them learn how to simply be dogs—to play, to trust, to feel safe and loved—has been one of the most rewarding parts of my life. They give me just as much joy as I give them. Our pack has a well-loved routine: breakfast and dinner together (with Otis getting his pill at each meal). Since I work from home, two of the pups usually “work” alongside me—though Ollie prefers lots of days off. Their work ethic may be questionable, but their company is unmatched! Ozzie, on the other hand, takes his role as head of security very seriously, keeping a close watch from the front window. At home, the dogs are always by my side, whether it’s keeping me company during the day or snuggling at night. They sleep in bed, lounge on the furniture, and honestly think of me as part of the furniture too—and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Caring for them has taught me the importance of patience, safety, and unconditional love—values I carry into caring for every dog I meet.Each dog is unique, and I happily adjust to their needs. From carrying Ollie up and down stairs, up and down from the couch to giving him stroller walks so he can keep up, I make sure every pup feels included. I’ll give your dog the same love, patience, and care I give my own. Our home has three friendly pups—Ozzie is the biggest at just 45 lbs! Yard is fully fenced and secure yard, but I always go outside with them to ensure safety. Our dogs are allowed on the furniture, but I’m happy to follow your preferences if you’d like your littles to stick to their own cozy spots. At home, we keep things relaxed and let the pups be themselves. We always keep fresh water available (three bowls downstairs that I’m constantly refilling!). If I’m dropping by to care for your pets, you can count on me to be prompt, respectful, and to show them the same love and attention I give my own. Keeping dogs safe is a top priority for me—I know the worry of even imagining a lost pet, and I’ll always make sure yours are secure. Beyond that, I truly enjoy spending time with dogs, whether it’s playing, cuddling, or even having a “deep conversation” with them. After all, they always have the best listening ears.
“Lisa was very nice to our Scarlet. She understood that my our scarlet has separation anxiety simply because no one watches her but my children and I. She watched our Scarlet the next day and she ran straight to her. So I knew was in good hands. Whenever in that area and Lisa is available she will be our go to again.”
About: At Barking Bee, we believe dogs deserve more than just a place to stay—they deserve to feel at home. What sets us apart is our personalized, hands-on approach to every dog in our care. We focus on quality over quantity, creating a cozy, welcoming environment where every pup receives individual attention, plenty of enrichment, exercise, and lots of love. We take the time to learn each dog’s personality, needs, and routines so they can feel safe, comfortable, and truly cared for while they’re with us. As a stay-at-home dog mom, caring for pets naturally fits into my everyday routine! Our days are filled with plenty of potty breaks and outdoor time in our fully fenced-in backyard, with fresh water and comfortable places for the dogs to rest and relax. Inside, there are always plenty of toys and enrichment activities available, and I make time each day for one-on-one play and personalized enrichment, such as lick mats and puzzles. Throughout the week, we also visit a larger dog park where pups can get some extra exercise, explore, and make new friends. With a flexible schedule and lots of time at home, your pet will have plenty of attention, companionship, and opportunities to play, relax, and feel right at home. 🐝🐾 Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities! Barking Bee has a fully fenced-in yard where pups can safely get fresh air, exercise, and play. I also have two dogs of my own and a cat, so your pup will have the option to enjoy some furry company while staying in a familiar, home-like environment. Copper, my 5-year-old dog, is perfectly happy doing his own thing, while Soup, my playful puppy, is always ready for a game of chasing or play-fighting. Whether your dog is high-energy or prefers to relax, there’s a place for them here! Dogs are welcome to cuddle up on the couches and make themselves comfortable, and I also have two medium-sized crates available at all times for any pup who needs a quiet space or some downtime.
About: Hey there, we’re Ryan & Amber! We’re excited you’re here, and understand that finding the right care for your furry best friend isn’t always easy or accessible. We believe every pet is unique and that they deserve to be treated as a part of our family while in our care. We have a four month old mixed breed pup of our own who is super sweet and playful and loves running around the yard with other doggos We have a ten month old and (almost) three year old who absolutely love dogs and are ready to give lots of pets. We love being active outdoors and look forward to long walks or running around and playing fetch. We live in a single story home with a large fenced in back yard. We love all dogs and can't wait to meet your pup and show them the same love that you give them on a daily basis. Amber works remotely from home and Ryan works outside of the house 4 days/ week. With our flexible schedules you won’t have to worry about your pet being alone for long and they’ll receive plenty of love and attention throughout the day. We have a large fenced yard for lots of play and a view of the pond where your pup can watch all of the birds land and take off. We will provide plenty of pets and snuggles to make them feel right at home. Walks during the day are a common part of our existing routines.
About: We have many animals at our home, we have two labs, 2 cats and 14 chickens. We’ve had a senior dachshund, senior lab and senior cat before so we are all well versed in the care of different animals at different stages. I am currently a stay at home mom so I am able to make our schedule whatever it needs to be to properly care for your animals while you are away. We have a yard with privacy fence so animals can run freely in the yard. We have a two year old lab that does wonderfully with other dogs and would love to be your pets playmate. We have a kennel if need be and are comfortable allowing animals to sleep outside of the kennel as well if that is their preference.
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was little. We've always had at least 1. I'm also a wildlife rehabber and have worked at a doggy day care before so I'm comfortable giving medicine or taking care of wounds if need be. I'm working part-time at the moment and would love to fill up my free time taking care of your animals. I'm available mostly middle of the week but can do in house check ins or dog walks in mornings and evenings on weekends. I have a fenced in back yard and 2 dogs for them to play with and run! I can also offer inside animal sitting with or without a crate. I'm also willing to travel to do in home check ins, feedings, walking, playing.

“Super helpful and responsive. I’m almost always on a last minute basis with my schedule and she has come through tremendously. I do enjoy speaking with her and she keeps me up to date. I highly recommend!”
“Dawn was so great! Over the Christmas holiday I had surgery and my boyfriend got really sick. Poor Ranger was desperate to get out and Dawn came the same day we made the request! I will definitely book again. Thanks, Dawn! ☺️”
About: I've owned dogs, cats and small animals throughout my life. I have experience with puppies, kittens, senior animals, rodents and reptiles. I have also cared for many animals with special needs! I don't currently work so I am available throughout the day and to stay overnight! I do not currently work and am one of the main caretakers for my 4 dogs, 3 cats and 2 reptiles. I am used to feeding, checking water, walking and playing on a daily basis. Your house, your rules. I will do my best to stick to the pets schedule and not mess their schedule up. I'm more than willing to stay overnight with the fur babies!
“Carly was fantastic with my pups! She communicated to me throughout the visit and even provided my pups with extra treats she brought! Carly is very kind and accommodating to my puppies needs. I highly recommend her for any type of dog care you need!”
About: My family has had cats, dogs, rabbits, and horses for almost my entire life. I have grown up around pets and have tremendous love for all of them. I have taken my Australian Shepherd to puppy school and learned from a professional how to handle him, and we have owned various breeds of dogs and cats. My mom and I captured, neutered, and re-homed feral cats that had wandered into our old property. Now, I own one of those (not-so-feral-anymore) cats, Jade, and a foster fail, Gia, along with my dog Ozzie. I have been riding and showing horses since I was 9 years old and have a lot of experience in taking care of large animals. I was a D1 equestrian athlete at UGA, and I'm now a veterinary assistant for Banfield! I have some extra days off and I would love to spend that time getting to meet and take care of your furbabies! I am a full-time veterinary assistant at Banfield, so my schedule is very irregular. I get my schedule a month in advance, but it will not always be the same. I will make sure that my availability is reflected in Rover as far out as possible so that I can take care of you and your pet! My dog and cats roam my apartment freely throughout the day, and they all sleep with me on the bed at night. We play with my Australian Shepherds 4-5 times a day, with his favorite game, frisbee! In a clients home, I am open to caring for their pet anyway they would like, whether they need them to be in a crate, go for a walk, or to play ball!
About: I have lots of experience with taking care of dogs and cats. I am comfortable taking care of dogs of all sizes. I have always had dogs in my house growing up, and I know the responsibilities it takes to care for an animal. I will treat your pet as if they are my own. I have taken care of many kinds of pets from puppies and cats to elderly dogs. I have been pet sitting since high school and know what is required for a happy pet. I am very detail oriented and will make sure your pet has all their needs met. This includes potty breaks, food, water, medications, play time, and quality time. I can take your dog for a walk, do a few drop in visits, or do an overnight depending on your pet’s needs or what you are comfortable with. I am currently a rising junior at CofC studying Biology. I will be home (Summerville, SC) for the summer and can take care of pets all throughout the day. During the school year (Downtown Charleston) I can do drop in’s or walks in the morning before my classes, and after my classes in the afternoon, evenings, or overnight. I have an elderly golden lab and a 3 year old Weimaraner. I help take care of them by spending lots of time with them, taking them on walks, providing medication, feeding them, fetching, and giving them lots of love and support. I am very familiar with energetic dogs, and I know that they need lots of attention.
“We have requested Jennifer to sit for and/ or walk or drugs many times since we first met her. The doggoes love her and we feel like she's part of the family. I NEVER worry one bit when she's here for our 3 huskies and 1 bichon mix.”
“Chey was an absolute godsend to my family during a last minute need for dog walking services! I contacted her about 3 days before having to go out of town and she responded promptly and was able to arrange a meet and greet the very next day. She was insanely attentive to my little pup, Gertie, for 2 weeks while I was out of town and her daily updates and pics of Gertie were personable and very much appreciated! Chey is reliable, communicative and overall an awesome resource for all of us dog owners who are over protective of our 4 legged babies. Thank you Chey!!! 💕💕”
About: I have taken care of animals since i was a child! I personally had 4+ dogs/cats at a time growing up since I was 5 years old and even now! As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home the majority of the day and night, which allows me to give consistent attention and supervision. I only step out briefly for school drop-off/pick-up or short errands, typically no more than a few hours total. Your dog will not be left alone for long stretches and will be treated like part of our daily routine, with regular potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of interaction throughout the day. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. We live on 2 fully fenced acres, providing plenty of secure space to run and explore while always supervised. When indoors, pets are part of our family environment — relaxing, playing, or cuddling in a calm and clean home. I carefully follow each dog’s routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions to ensure they feel safe and at ease. My goal is to create a structured but loving environment where your pup feels right at home.
About: What sets me apart is that caring for animals has been part of my life every day, not just a job. Growing up with pets taught me how to understand their needs, routines, and personalities. I treat every pet like my own, providing loving, attentive care. i’m currently doing school remotely so i am available any time needed.

About: I have been pet sitting for as long as I can remember. Growing up I would watch my neighbors pets anytime they were out of town. Over the years I have gotten to meet so many people + their adorable pets and it truly is so much fun! I love being able to help you and meet a new furry friend. I will love your pet like they are my own! I will be their buddy while you are away. You can trust me and not feel worried leaving your loved one at home. I am a college student so my schedule is busy, however I can work around it and still be there for your pet! You and your pet are important to me. I will do what I am asked! If you have specific instructions I would love to know so I can serve you and your pet best!

About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my mother served on the board of a Jack Russell rescue — which meant at least three of them running around at any given time. My first dog as an adult was Molly, a border collie who never met a person she didn't like. Every dog I've cared for since has gotten that same love and attention. When it comes to housesitting, I treat every home like my own. I bring in the mail, water the plants, vary the lights, take out the trash, and send regular photos and updates so you can truly relax. You come home to exactly what you left — sometimes with a very happy pet (or two or three...) at the door. My availability is genuinely flexible — some weeks I'm fully available, others I'm part-time, so I always recommend checking my calendar for current openings. What stays consistent is my commitment: when I'm with your pet, I am fully present and fully focused. I work around your schedule, your pet's routine, and whatever your family needs. I provide care exclusively in your home — because that's where your pet is most comfortable, and comfort matters. I believe the safest pet is an attentive one, so I give every animal in my care my complete attention. Your home is treated with the same respect I'd give my own, and your pet's routine, quirks, and needs are taken seriously from day one. In rare emergency situations, I am able to bring your pet into my home for overnight care, so they are never left without a loving hand. You won't have to wonder if everything is okay — I'll make sure you know.

“Saffron watched my puppy for a few days while I had to go out of town, and it was great. She sent me videos and pictures the whole time so I never had to worry how she was doing. Definitely recommend her!”
“I love David and his family. They are so caring and always very easy to work your schedule around for drop off and pick up. I appreciate the updates and photos of our fire babies. Trustworthy and very responsible. I am very thankful and appreciative of everything they do.”
“Jennifer did a great job of taking care of my boy Sailor. Her communication was off the chain great and she sent lots of pics making sure that I knew he was doing great. I trust Jennifer whole heartedly with my boy and will choose her again the next time I travel and can’t bring my boy with me. Again! I can’t thank you enough. I think Sailor was sad to leave.”
“Jessica was great with Roo and Charlie! She sent us pictures throughout their stay and made us feel completely at ease leaving them. Both dogs seemed to get along really well with her pup, and she handled Roo’s extra puppy energy without any issue. We really appreciated the updates and would definitely feel comfortable booking with Jessica again.”
“Such an absolute blessing! The care and consideration taken for my big beautiful dobbie. Aurora absolutely had the time of her life with Kernix, Travis, and of course Josie. Each day she kept us updated with pictures and videos of our girl having the time of her life. When you leave a loved one in the care of someone you often worry about them. But not with Kernix and family. Never a doubt in our mind that our pup was being cared for with the most love we could ask for.”
“They seemed like very caring and loving people. They sent me many pictures over the time they had them and it was very appreciated. My dogs were well taken care of and had lots of room in there yard to roam and enjoy there time. Definitely rate them a 5.”
“Michelle took excellent care of our energetic puppy Harper. We are so relieved to have found such a reliable person that we can trust to take care of our pet(s) so that we do not need to worry when we are away. Bonus, Harper had the best time following Michelle's dog Pheobe around and was able to learn so much about being with another dog. We look forward to having Michelle take care of Harper again.”
“Laetitia was absolutely amazing!!!!! Our dog had the best time and we loved all of the updates and pictures we received. We are so grateful to have found such an amazing caretaker for our sweet doggy when we are away!”
“Tonianne saved us! Our usual dog sitter backed out two days before our trip, and Tonianne took the job last minute. She was very flexible, and allowed the meet and drop off at our convenience. The daily updates and pictures of my dog was the cherry on top. Will continue to use Tonianne from now on.”
“Stephen & Jessica take such good care of Grace. She’s always excited to go see them & the boys Nubes & Oakley. They even had a birthday party for her !”
“Ryan was great! He was super responsive the entire time he had Dali and flexible with the pick up time. Dali had a good time staying with him. I'll definitely ask if he can take care of Dali again in the near future!”
“My boy is almost 12 and I have never left him with a stranger. I was new to the process and didn't have any idea of what was going on and I wasn't very keen on the idea of having to leave him with a stranger. Fortunately, Kristin was very responsive and kind about the whole thing, which was very reassuring. I got picture updates daily and even videos. The neighborhood was very nice, her home was clean and organized, she had a fenced in yard, twin boys which I am sure my dog loved to be around, and the a sweet weiner dog. My dog has specific feeding and meds, which she accommodated. I didn't want him to be alone when I was gone and picking Kristin was perfect.”
“Rebecca was very accommodating and sent great pictures of our pup while we were gone. I felt very comfortable with her and was glad my dog had friends to play with while we were gone!”
“Our fur babies had a wonderful time while we were away. Sarah provided updates with pictures and videos of how they were doing. Even her dog and ours became best friends while they were there. Definitely use her services again.”
“Hannah was so kind and our energetic dog had a great time with her. Hannah saved us with a last minute request and was so great with pictures and communication. We will definitely use her services again!”
“Alexis and John took great care of my boys (both are Dachshunds). Alexis sent daily photos and kept in contact the whole time. This was our first time boarding them with a service like Rover, so I was pretty nervous since one of our boys has IVDD and the other had not been boarded in at least four years. They received their joint medicine and got plenty of cuddles. I would not hesitate to use them again.”
“Caitlin very kindly booked a last minute boarding for my Golden Retriever. Her communication was thorough, and even though she kept him for a bit over 24 hours, I still received multiple updates. So grateful!”
“Alyssa was great! Very responsive and friendly, sent plenty of updates and pictures, and my dog looked very happy and at home while under her care. Highly recommend!”
About: I have had many animals in the past few years of all kinds. (Dogs, cats, snakes, guinea pigs, fish, etc) I love animals so much and would love to watch your pets when you are in need of someone! Pet care is something I am very used to in my routine since I have always had pets of my own, so it’s a normal daily routine for me, no problem! I make sure to walk dogs daily, clean up any accidents or messes immediately, separate dogs during feeding times if necessary, always let dogs outside immediately when they alert me that they need to go etc.
