“Yolanda was wonderful! We were able to go over and meet her, see her home, where our pup would stay, see her meet the other dogs, etc. It gave us peace about leaving her. She was a wonderful communicator and kept us informed on how Cora was adjusting. When I picked her up she had her all ready to go - she had her stuffed nicely packed up and Cora on her leash. It was a wonderful first experience and I look forward to the relationship that we have started to help care for our girl!”
“Gwendolyn and her family took amazing care of my dog, Kobe, who has special needs due to his hyperactivity. From the start, they were incredibly welcoming and made him feel comfortable right away. It’s not always easy trusting others with a high energy dog, but they handled him with patience and genuine care. They kept me updated regularly, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. When Kobe came home, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for; it really showed how much attention and kindness they gave him. I’m very happy with the experience and would absolutely trust Gwendolyn and her family with Kobe again. I would definitely rebook them in the future.”
“melanie was amazing :) with this being our first time leaving our benji with a sitter she was so kind to answer all our questions she was patient and sent us updates along with pictures which was very comforting to know benji was in good hands . she’s the best !!”
“Oralee always takes such good care of my dogs. It’s a good feeling when you can go away and know that your dogs are being loved and playing with their doggy friends and that they are having so much fun. I love the pictures she sends daily. They help the kids not miss them so much. I highly recommend Oralee. I’m so grateful I found her.”
“Michele is the best, a kind hearted person with a gentle animal loving spirit. My little Archie was quickly at ease under her watch. Her setup for dog care is unrivaled in our community. 10/10- I will use her services again!”

I’m willing to feed, walk and play with your dogs when you are not available.

“Marie was great! She updated us daily with photos of Poker and all the fun he was having through the week stay. We can’t thank Marie enough for taking such great care of our fur baby and would certainly recommend her to anyone!”
“Leanna was so wonderful with our girl. She went above and beyond accommodating us when it was MY fault for messing up which day I would be returning and added on an extra day to my reservation. We loved that we did a meet and greet to make sure everyone got along well. Her young daughters were so incredibly sweet to Tahlia and apparently had a great time with her. While Tahlia has love children in the past, she is older and hasn’t been around a lot of kids in a number of years. Leanna was great making sure Tahlia felt loved by her sweet girls but also making sure Tahlia wasn’t overwhelmed. Her yard was a perfect heaven for Tahlia and I’m sure she had lots of new things to smell and see. Leanna did great to make sure I felt updated and I felt super secure leaving Tahlia with her and the girls.”
“They are wonderful dog sitters! Our go-to sitters for our pups. Our pups loved playing with theirs and are always well taken care of. They were flexible with our booking and schedule. I’d give them more than 5 stars if I could!”
“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 !”
About: I have worked at a doggy daycare and own 3 dogs of my own. I have owned dogs my whole life. We have had chickens as well. I love animals and plan to have many fur babies in the future. I work on Monday-Friday from 8-5. My husband works from home and can let them out often. We are also home all weekend to love on your babies. I will take care of and love your babies like my own my fur babies and make sure you feel comfortable when away from them and send lots of videos and pictures.
“Hillary was able care for our pet, Calvin on very short notice. I really appreciated that, then my flight was delayed and she was very accommodating again. I would recommend her to care for your loved pet.”
“My puppy Sasha stayed with Lilly for 12 days. Lily gave me updates on how Sasha was going and Sasha seas clearly having a great time. I’ll certainly be asking Lilly to look after Sash again!”
“Laura is so good to our dog Harper. We’re so lucky to have found her as a regular sitter and would highly recommend her to anyone who wants their dog to have a vacation of their own when you’re away.”
“Susie went way out of her way to make sure our dog, Louis, was comfortable and familiar with her. She sent videos and pictures of him playing and having a great time with her 4 doggies. Louis is a rescue and I believe it really helped for him to interact with her dogs in a family setting. She treated Louis just like one of her own dogs and even spent quality one-on-one time with him. I highly, highly recommend Susie. She is amazing!!!”
About: I've worked at an Animal Shelter for about 7 years. I've also worked and The Animal Advocate for about a 4 years.

About: I am comfortable caring for dogs with different needs, including puppies who require structure and routine, as well as senior dogs who may need a calmer, more controlled environment. I also pay close attention to feeding schedules, behavior, and any special instructions provided by the owner. Overall, I focus on providing a safe, calm, and reliable home-style boarding experience where your dog is treated with care and consistency. Pet care is built into my daily routine with a consistent and structured schedule. I work close to home, which allows me to check on the dogs multiple times throughout the day. While I am away, dogs are safely kenneled in a clean, climate controlled indoor space with access to water, bedding, and toys. This ensures their safety and prevents any issues between dogs. I provide care in a structured, safe, and clean home-style environment tailored to each dog’s needs. In my home setup, dogs have a designated indoor boarding space that is climate-controlled and kept clean at all times. Each dog has their own kennel area for rest, along with comfortable bedding, water, and toys. While I am away, dogs are safely kenneled to prevent any issues and ensure a calm environment. I follow a consistent daily routine that includes morning, midday, and evening check-ins. During these times, dogs are walked, fed according to their specific schedule, and monitored closely. I keep detailed notes on feeding instructions, behavior, and any special care needs to make sure each dog’s routine is followed exactly as requested. When I am home, dogs receive supervised playtime and are welcome to relax in a separate lounge area for a more comfortable, home like experience. I limit the number of dogs I take at one time to ensure each pet receives personal attention and care.

About: Having shared my home with every kind of pet since I was a child, I bring a deep, intuitive understanding to pet care that goes beyond the basics.

This means your pet gets my undivided attention, and I can be there for them consistently throughout the day, every day. My approach to in-home pet care is to provide seamless, consistent care while maintaining your pet's normal routine. I minimize their stress by keeping them in their familiar environment. If needed to stay in your own home. If they were to come to my home: I have 3 young kids, however if necessary to be away from kids we could do in your home. When pets stay with me, they become part of my family. My home is a safe, loving, and pet-centric environment where they receive constant attention.
About: I’ve been caring for all types of animals for as long as I could remember from birds to horses to ducks and fish. I love them all and I’ve never met an animal that I couldn’t form a relationship or bond with. My days are normally pretty quiet so on average I tend to give car at the we hours of the morning until five and six. I always let the pets do what feels comfortable to them as long as it follows the parents rules. I never force them to interact and do anything that makes them uncomfortable.

“Madison was great with my cats while I was gone for a long weekend! She was extremely flexible with their specific individual dietary needs and went above and beyond with their care! I will definitely be a returning customer :)”
About: i work full-time night shift at a no-kill dog rescue, so i’m basically used to every type of pup out there — shy, dramatic, wiggly, and even the “just had surgery, carry me like a noodle” ones. i’ve had dogs my whole life and currently i’ve got three rescues and 2 cats! i’ve got experience with special needs pups, meds, and post-surgery care, and honestly my whole life pretty much revolves around animals. if your dog needs love, patience, or just someone who speaks “woof,” I’ve got them covered. i work overnight (full time) from 2am to 9am taking care of doggies, so pet care fits right into my routine. i’m already in “dog mode” pretty much 24/7. when i’m not at the rescue, i’m home with my own pets, so adding a few more furry friends to my day is super easy for me. when i’m in your home, i treat it and your pets with the same respect i give my own — i follow your rules, your routines, and your comfort level. your space stays clean, your pets feel safe, and i make sure everything is exactly how you left it.
“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: As an animal owner myself, I know what I look for in a pet sitter, your fur babies will be cared for just as you care for them. I also do photography as a hobby, you will always have cute photos sent to you. I am a stay at home mom, because my schedule is flexible, I'm able to work around what is needed for taking care of your fur babies. I have found that when a new person enters an animals schedule, staying on the schedule they are used to helps everyone adjust. I feel keeping the animal (s) on a schedule they're used to is helpful.
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 love all animals and even have a dog of my own name zora. I've worked in grooming shops and even ran one for about 10 days straight which included boarding (with cat's and dog's), doggy day, care and even washing dogs. It was one of the best jobs I've ever had because I got to play with dogs and help them learn tricks and made sure they had food and fresh water and clean kennels and if meds given on time. I walked them and and played with them too and I felt better knowing there in good care as I know there is a lot of bad care. I would love to take care of your pup's and cat's while your away or on vacation and even walk them or drop in's too. I've done a lot of training with my pup and grew up with animals as my mom runs a grooming shop and so did my aunt plus the grooming shop I worked at that I grew up around called Sam and boos. I also worked there until I had to go back to school in another county. I would truly love to help! I am home everyday and have plenty of time to spend on caring for all the babies I have 2 of my own Zora and Zelda standard poodles that I love to spend time with and take for walk! Your babies are my full focus! My pets have the best life I could provide for them they are my main priority I own fish hermit crabs and 2 dogs! I would give your pets the same care I give mine! My animals always have fresh water there meals on time or how ever there feeding schedules are! I make sure they are comfortable happy and healthy and safe! I do crate my dogs when I leave for short periods so I know they are safe!

About: I've taken care of dogs (of various breeds) since I was in middle school. I have done short-term and long-term care both out of my house or going over to the owner's house. I am a very calm and reassuring person and have worked with both young and elder dogs. I am a recent graduate who is currently applying to post-graduate programs and jobs, so I have great flexibility in my schedule when I am not helping my grandmother with errands or volunteering at Greendale Elementary (on Tuesday and Thursday mornings). I can do any weekday besides Wednesday afternoons. I can do most times on the weekends unless I have a prior engagement planned. I can do Christmas/Winter Break, but I will be away for Thanksgiving this year. I have a fenced-in yard and have plenty of room for housing your pet as there are no other pets in the house currently. The neighborhood is very safe and has walking paths for walking pets. I am also happy to drop in or stay at your home if that is more comfortable for your pet (or you)!
About: Ever since I was little I've preferred the company of pets over people. My first job was at petco as a sales associate then after in the grooming salon and there i blossomed into who I am now! Currently taking a break from work after my stroke and what better way to spend that down time than cuddling with your babies? My favorite thing to do is work with animals and it truly does not feel like work to me. I dont have a fenced in yard so all walks are on leash. I do have long lines for times they need to stretch their legs and will be adding seperated fenced in areas for the dogs to have some safe secure fun in the good weather times.
“Ms. Ronda was Awesome! She took good of my dog even trained her. This was the 1st morning I woke up with my dog not barking to go outside. This was my 1st time using her and it will definitely not be my last. I highly recommend Ms. Ronda. Thank you”

“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!”
“Wonderful caregiver, our dog was very happy. Laura was understanding and flexible with last minute changes for drop off. Laura is a truly wonderful and caring individual, we would love to book again.”

About: Lover of all dogs. I grew up with all types of dogs (labs, miniature dachshunds, cocker spaniels). Currently, I own 5 dogs - 1 labradoodle and 4 labs, which are my whole world. In 2022 and beginning of 2023, I trained over 10 puppies (ages ranging from 3 months to 7 months) to be potential service dogs for a non-profit organization. I am currently training lab puppies (ages ranging from 3 months to 6 months) for different families across the country. I also train my own labs for AKC and HRC hunt test. I specialize in basic obedience, socialization, and started gun dog training with my main goal in making your dog the best dog they can be so you can actually enjoy spending time with your dog either at home or in a public setting. I live on a 10 acre farm that is fully fenced in and off a private dirt road. Your dog will enjoy supervised outdoor play time, nature walks, plenty of one on one time and other fun activities based on your pet's needs. ***For the safety and well being of my personal dogs and other client dogs, I require proof of up to date vaccinations, which includes Rabies, DHPP and Kennel Cough, prior to your visit.*** I am a stay at home dog mom so I am available during all hours of the day. I am able to accommodate your pet's schedule to ensure that your dog is as comfortable as possible. My whole 10 acre property is fenced in, with the main yard (approximately 1 acre) also being fenced in from the remaining property. I also have a smaller area fenced in just for the dogs. I have cameras set up around the whole property. I have a 4 bay indoor-outdoor kennel that has A/C and heat that your dog will stay in. Puppies will be boarded inside my home. Your dog will be let outside multiple times a day.

About: Having shared my home with every kind of pet since I was a child, I bring a deep, intuitive understanding to pet care that goes beyond the basics. This extensive experience has given me a special skill for navigating the unique challenges of both ends of the spectrum: I excel at the positive reinforcement needed for training energetic puppies and have the gentle, patient touch required to provide comfort and specialized care for senior pets. When you entrust me with your furry family member, you're choosing a sitter who offers not just reliability, but a genuine, experienced friendship for your pet I have the wonderful luxury of a completely open schedule, which allows me to make pet care my top priority. This means your pet gets my undivided attention, and I can be there for them consistently throughout the day, every day. My approach to in-home pet care is to provide seamless, consistent care while maintaining your pet's normal routine. I minimize their stress by keeping them in their familiar environment. If needed to stay in your own home. If they were to come to my home: I have 3 young kids, however if necessary to be away from kids we could do in your home. When pets stay with me, they become part of my family. My home is a safe, loving, and pet-centric environment where they receive constant attention.
About: I’ve been caring for all types of animals for as long as I could remember from birds to horses to ducks and fish. I love them all and I’ve never met an animal that I couldn’t form a relationship or bond with. My days are normally pretty quiet so on average I tend to give car at the we hours of the morning until five and six. I always let the pets do what feels comfortable to them as long as it follows the parents rules. I never force them to interact and do anything that makes them uncomfortable.
“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.”
“Madison was professional and went above and beyond to tidy up and care for my 3 dogs. I am happy we found her in short notice and she was able to accommodate us. I will definitely depend on her in the future.”
About: i work full-time night shift at a no-kill dog rescue, so i’m basically used to every type of pup out there — shy, dramatic, wiggly, and even the “just had surgery, carry me like a noodle” ones. i’ve had dogs my whole life and currently i’ve got three rescues and 2 cats! i’ve got experience with special needs pups, meds, and post-surgery care, and honestly my whole life pretty much revolves around animals. if your dog needs love, patience, or just someone who speaks “woof,” I’ve got them covered. i work overnight (full time) from 2am to 9am taking care of doggies, so pet care fits right into my routine. i’m already in “dog mode” pretty much 24/7. when i’m not at the rescue, i’m home with my own pets, so adding a few more furry friends to my day is super easy for me. when i’m in your home, i treat it and your pets with the same respect i give my own — i follow your rules, your routines, and your comfort level. your space stays clean, your pets feel safe, and i make sure everything is exactly how you left it.
About: Hi, I’m Qais (pronounced Case), and pet care isn’t just something I do on the side — it’s my full-time profession and passion. With me, your dog isn’t just a pet — they’re family.

I provide a calm, clean, and cozy home environment where dogs receive plenty of love, exercise, structure, and personalized attention throughout the day.

My goal is to make your pup feel safe, comfortable, loved, and excited to come back for their next stay. Let your dog enjoy their own little vacation while you’re away — with peace of mind for you and tail wags for them. ATTN: I host multiple pets at a given time. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I can provide care before and after work and come home at lunch for walks or check-ins. I dedicate my weekends entirely to being at home with pets. I prioritize safety by ensuring a pet-proof environment in my home and following all instructions provided by owners.

About: Hi, I’m Madison! I am a USC graduate and young professional in Columbia, SC. I am a HUGE pet lover but unfortunately my pets live a few hours away with my parents. I am trying to find some fur babies to love on while I am here. I have 8+ years of babysitting and pet- sitting experience. I have a cozy home with a fenced yard for your babies to play. I am willing to come to your house as well. I will also send you updates of your pets while you are away, if you would like! Let me know if I can help you out in any way! I work from home and work part-time at night. I will have plenty of time to spend playing or relaxing with your pups. They will be taken out for potty breaks regularly as well. I have a fenced in yard and also a spare room for your pup to play if they choose. I try not to keep more than one family’s dogs at a time, but I will let you know if I am caring for any others.
About: I've taken care of a multitude of dogs, big and small, since I was a little girl. I have always loved every kind of animal and love to clean and make sure things are taken care of. I am currently working part time as an administrative assistant at Topgolf, but communication is key! As long as I am given 1-2 weeks advance notice I can make myself available for you. I can easily crate your dog if needed and I am an expert at putting cats in carriers. I read animal body language very well and know when to step in and how to meet their exact needs.
About: I have been caring for a variety of pets ranging from cats and dogs to rodents and horses since I was 12 years old. Since then I have fully trained my own dog to do basic tasks but also to “find” things (such as an inhaler for my mom) and stand with her back to my calves if we are in crowded areas. I am always learning new ways to better care for pets and new tricks for my own dog! I have just graduated from university so I am currently searching for a full-time job in my field. That means for now I am completely free to help out with pets whether that means walking, drop in visits, or house sitting. If I am coming over to housesit I will likely be at the house for the majority of the day and stay over at night too (or whatever the owner requests.) I am completely flexible and open to negotiation.

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 love all animals and even have a dog of my own name zora. I've worked in grooming shops and even ran one for about 10 days straight which included boarding (with cat's and dog's), doggy day, care and even washing dogs.

I walked them and and played with them too and I felt better knowing there in good care as I know there is a lot of bad care. I would love to take care of your pup's and cat's while your away or on vacation and even walk them or drop in's too. I've done a lot of training with my pup and grew up with animals as my mom runs a grooming shop and so did my aunt plus the grooming shop I worked at that I grew up around called Sam and boos.

“Yolanda was wonderful! We were able to go over and meet her, see her home, where our pup would stay, see her meet the other dogs, etc. It gave us peace about leaving her. She was a wonderful communicator and kept us informed on how Cora was adjusting. When I picked her up she had her all ready to go - she had her stuffed nicely packed up and Cora on her leash. It was a wonderful first experience and I look forward to the relationship that we have started to help care for our girl!”
“Gwendolyn and her family took amazing care of my dog, Kobe, who has special needs due to his hyperactivity. From the start, they were incredibly welcoming and made him feel comfortable right away. It’s not always easy trusting others with a high energy dog, but they handled him with patience and genuine care. They kept me updated regularly, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. When Kobe came home, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for; it really showed how much attention and kindness they gave him. I’m very happy with the experience and would absolutely trust Gwendolyn and her family with Kobe again. I would definitely rebook them in the future.”

“Oralee always takes such good care of my dogs. It’s a good feeling when you can go away and know that your dogs are being loved and playing with their doggy friends and that they are having so much fun. I love the pictures she sends daily. They help the kids not miss them so much. I highly recommend Oralee. I’m so grateful I found her.”

“Marie was great! She updated us daily with photos of Poker and all the fun he was having through the week stay. We can’t thank Marie enough for taking such great care of our fur baby and would certainly recommend her to anyone!”
“Leanna was so wonderful with our girl. She went above and beyond accommodating us when it was MY fault for messing up which day I would be returning and added on an extra day to my reservation. We loved that we did a meet and greet to make sure everyone got along well. Her young daughters were so incredibly sweet to Tahlia and apparently had a great time with her. While Tahlia has love children in the past, she is older and hasn’t been around a lot of kids in a number of years. Leanna was great making sure Tahlia felt loved by her sweet girls but also making sure Tahlia wasn’t overwhelmed. Her yard was a perfect heaven for Tahlia and I’m sure she had lots of new things to smell and see. Leanna did great to make sure I felt updated and I felt super secure leaving Tahlia with her and the girls.”

About: I am comfortable caring for dogs with different needs, including puppies who require structure and routine, as well as senior dogs who may need a calmer, more controlled environment. I also pay close attention to feeding schedules, behavior, and any special instructions provided by the owner. Overall, I focus on providing a safe, calm, and reliable home-style boarding experience where your dog is treated with care and consistency. Pet care is built into my daily routine with a consistent and structured schedule. I work close to home, which allows me to check on the dogs multiple times throughout the day. While I am away, dogs are safely kenneled in a clean, climate controlled indoor space with access to water, bedding, and toys. This ensures their safety and prevents any issues between dogs. I provide care in a structured, safe, and clean home-style environment tailored to each dog’s needs. In my home setup, dogs have a designated indoor boarding space that is climate-controlled and kept clean at all times. Each dog has their own kennel area for rest, along with comfortable bedding, water, and toys. While I am away, dogs are safely kenneled to prevent any issues and ensure a calm environment. I follow a consistent daily routine that includes morning, midday, and evening check-ins. During these times, dogs are walked, fed according to their specific schedule, and monitored closely. I keep detailed notes on feeding instructions, behavior, and any special care needs to make sure each dog’s routine is followed exactly as requested. When I am home, dogs receive supervised playtime and are welcome to relax in a separate lounge area for a more comfortable, home like experience. I limit the number of dogs I take at one time to ensure each pet receives personal attention and care.
“Amber and her husband were very kind! We put in our request very short notice and she was very quick to respond, keeping us up to date on our Muenster through text and photos. They were also very flexible when we realized we would need to pick up a bit earlier. I fully recommend!”
