By the time our "meet and greet" was over, I knew that Debbie was the right caregiver for our sweet girls. And I was right! We received pictures on a daily basis as well as comments as to how each dog was doing. When I came to pick up the dogs, they were excited to see me, but they weren't racing for the door, trying to escape. Clearly, they felt comfortable during their stay. We will be calling on Debbie from now on!

I was very nervous of leaving my fur baby with a sitter being that she’s still a puppy and so tiny she’s in need of so much attention. Maria took Madison in and did such a great job with her that I will definitely be booking her for all my sitting needs.

Lauren is amazing! She watched my two dogs last minute, followed their feeding and medication schedule, took them on walks, and sent lots of photos and updates. I always am nervous to leave my dogs somewhere new and she completely put me at ease. My pups came back happy and relaxed, and I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in great hands. Highly recommend and will definitely be booking again!

Lexie is fantastic! She took such good care of our two dogs over Thanksgiving. The indoor and outdoor spaces she has created for the dogs are wonderful, with plenty of room for them to run around and play together. Lexie sent us one little update a day to see how well the dogs were doing and how much fun they were having. She was very thorough during the intake process to ensure the dogs' individual needs were met. We could not be happier with their care and will be back again!

We needed a sitter for our dog for a few hours while attending a graduation and we did not know anyone in the area. We found Aiko on Rover and everything worked out perfectly! Our dog can be nervous about going with someone new but she very quickly decided that Aiko would be a good friend. Aiko shared some pictures to let us know all was good and we were able to enjoy the graduation

We left our 7 month old English Cocker Spaniel, Bo, with Merrell while visiting family in town. He had never stayed with anyone else overnight so we were already a little anxious, but Merrell did a great job welcoming him in and making sure he was loved on. She kept us updated on his status and sent lots of pictures throughout his stay. It worked out well and we are already planning on booking with her again when we visit for Christmas. Highly recommend Merrell if you’re in need of a sitter in Columbia.

Fantastic sitter! Kirsten is very responsive and super sweet to your pets. She handled our cat's odd litter (wood pellet) without issue, which made everything super smooth! Her cat, Momo, was also super gentle and accepting of our Mindy. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter, and I will be holding onto her info for when we need a sitter again!

About: I’ve been a dog lover my whole life! I grew up with two dogs and have spent years pet sitting and caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I love walks, playtime, cuddles, and making sure every pup feels happy and comfortable while their humans are away. I’d love to meet your furry friend! 🐾 I currently work full time but have a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to care for your dog. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting around my work schedule, and I’m happy to work with you to find a time that fits your pet’s routine. I love spending my free time outdoors and would be excited to have a furry companion join me! I’m happy to welcome dogs into my apartment and provide a comfortable, safe, and relaxed home away from home. Your pup will get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and cuddles while they’re staying with me. I’ll do my best to keep their routine as close to normal as possible so they feel right at home!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was a teenager and have experience with a wide variety of breeds and personalities. Currently, I have a 4-year-old German Shepherd/Lab mix and a 4-month-old Jack Russell Terrier. Over the years, I’ve owned and cared for German Shepherds, Beagles, Pit Bulls, Jack Russells, Labradors, and Schnauzers, and at one point had as many as six dogs. I’ve also owned a cat and have experience caring for cats as well. Friends frequently trust me to pet sit for them, and I genuinely love spending time with animals. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, playful, or needs a little extra patience, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. I also am a Volunteer Dog walker and caregiver at Columbia Animal Shelter. I have a very flexible schedule and am committed to providing reliable, attentive care while you’re away. I’m currently in the army and work 2-3 days a week.my husband stays at home full time. I have a very flexible schedule. I care for every pet as if they were my own. In my client’s home, I follow their pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and plenty of attention and affection. I know how important consistency is for pets, especially when their owners are away. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and supervised environment with regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, fresh water, and lots of love. I pay close attention to each pet’s individual needs, personality, and comfort level to help them feel secure and happy.

About: I’ve always had a genuine love for dogs and enjoy making them feel safe, comfortable, and at home. I have experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, and I understand that every dog has their own routine and needs. I provide a clean, safe, and loving home environment where dogs can relax, play, receive plenty of attention, and be treated like part of the family. I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, daily routines, administering basic care, and making sure each dog gets the individual attention they deserve. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog, especially when you’re away. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind while making sure their dogs are happy, comfortable, and well cared for throughout their stay. I also love keeping owners updated with photos and messages so you can see how your pup is doing while you’re away. 🐾❤️ I’m home most of the day, so caring for dogs fits naturally into my daily routine. I have plenty of time to play with them, let them outside, and give them attention throughout the day. I’m also pretty flexible with drop-off and pick-up times and always try to make things easy for pet parents. I want every dog that stays with me to feel comfortable and at home. I have a fenced yard where they can safely go outside, play, and enjoy some fresh air. I always keep an eye on the dogs and make sure everyone gets along. I also follow each owner’s instructions because I know every dog has their own routine and personality.

About: Hi! I’m a caring and dependable pet sitter with experience caring for both dogs and cats. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’m committed to providing them with plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, litter box care, and keeping pets comfortable in their usual routines. Your pets’ safety and happiness are always my top priorities! I am a work from home mom and have all the time to play with your fur babies! I have a large fenced in backyard that is fully secure. I also have an air conditioned garage. All pets are welcome to be inside all day long but sometimes they want to play and run and it’s nice to have a cool down spot. All animals are welcome to stay inside all day and night. I am a light sleeper and wake up to let my senior dog, Lola, out at night for bathroom breaks regularly. I am always home and my daughter has been raised and daughter how to be safe and appropriate with new animals. We treat others and their pets with the respect we would want in return.

About: Hi, my name is Sergii. I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for over 35 years. Now I have 2 dogs: a poodle and a boxer. My wife and I love dogs and they love us. We treat our dogs more like family members than pets. We know how it’s difficult to be away from your pup, regardless if it is only a couple of hours or days. We are a team - two very experienced dog owners. We have experience with senior dogs&cats, and pets with special needs; dogs&cats who are highly anxious, and pets who are hyper activity and need a lot of care and attention. Now we put our animal expertise to our small business for pet services. We aim to ensure your dog receives just as much love and care as it does in your presence. I’m willing to feed, walk and play with your dogs when you are not available. My schedule changes from week to week, as I’m still engaged in the transportation of pets, so always have wife for backup. We really care about healthy life style and guarantee the best care for them. I certified the American Red Cross for pet first aid as well. All animals under my care are insured, insurance policy included veterinarian reimbursement. Meeting new animal friends is something that will always bring me joy. Your dog will be in the professional and loving care when under my watch. If I sound like someone you could trust to care for your fur babies, please send me message. DROP-IN VISIT (At your house) I can go to your home multiple times per day to feed your pets food/water, go outside to potty & play, administer medications, etc. Just let me know how many times per day you’d like me to drop-in to check up on your pets/how much time you’d like me to spend while there and what you’d like me to do during drop-in visits and I will make it happen. A care summary report and photos of my drop-in visit with your pets will be sent after each drop-in. DOGGIE WALKS Walks are 30 minutes long, but can also include playtime if requested (e.g 20 minute walk + 10 minutes of play time). 
Meals, treats, water, and medication can be given before or after the walk if requested, just let me know and I would be more than happy to do that.
A care summary report and photos from our walk will be sent after each walk. HOUSE SITTING I can care for your animals in your own home by ensuring your animals are safe and well cared for. I'll spend as much time with your pet as needed so that they have a true companion in your absence. I believe that the best pet care is done when your pet is in his/her own surroundings. I make sure gates and doors are closed and locked when needed, I follow safety checks in the home to ensure your pets are protected. In my clients home I will happily comply with any instructions to keep your pups safe. Anything that is needed for your fur babies!

About: I’ve spent over 20 years caring for pets, and I truly believe they’re family—not just animals. I’m a proud owner of four high-energy dogs, so I’m very comfortable with active breeds, strong personalities, and pups who need both structure and affection. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or quiet companionship, I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own—because that’s how I’d want mine treated. I work from home - my role is very autonomous which comes with a lot of flexibility during the day to help care for your pet. I care for your pets in your home according to your preferences, routines, and safety guidelines. I understand how important trust is when welcoming someone into your space. I have four dogs of my own who are family, and I provide that same level of attentive, respectful care to your pets while maintaining a safe and calm environment.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was little, growing up my grandma had a lot of dogs which started my love for them. I have taken care of many stray dogs around my area, i’ve also dog sitted for many local people in my hometown neighborhood. I’m happy to accommodate their individual needs, routines, and even their little dislikes to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I’ve handled cats, rabbits, and even turtles lol. Small or big , Reptile or mammal I love them all unconditionally :). I recently got out of the military, so my schedule is very flexible! I’m available Monday–Friday and may also be available on weekends. I don’t travel very often, so I can usually accommodate holiday bookings as well. I’m happy to work around your schedule and your pet’s needs whenever possible. :) I have a fenced-in backyard where your fur baby can safely run around and play whenever they’d like! I also have two fur babies of my own who are very friendly with other animals and love to play. I spend time with them outside every day, so if your fur baby is playful and enjoys having some company, they’ll have plenty of friends to keep them entertained. I want every pet in my care to feel comfortable, safe, and right at home! 🐾❤️

About: I’ve always had a genuine love for dogs and enjoy making them feel safe, comfortable, and at home. I have experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, and I understand that every dog has their own routine and needs. I provide a clean, safe, and loving home environment where dogs can relax, play, receive plenty of attention, and be treated like part of the family. I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, daily routines, administering basic care, and making sure each dog gets the individual attention they deserve. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog, especially when you’re away. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind while making sure their dogs are happy, comfortable, and well cared for throughout their stay. I also love keeping owners updated with photos and messages so you can see how your pup is doing while you’re away. 🐾❤️ I’m home most of the day, so caring for dogs fits naturally into my daily routine. I have plenty of time to play with them, let them outside, and give them attention throughout the day. I’m also pretty flexible with drop-off and pick-up times and always try to make things easy for pet parents. I want every dog that stays with me to feel comfortable and at home. I have a fenced yard where they can safely go outside, play, and enjoy some fresh air. I always keep an eye on the dogs and make sure everyone gets along. I also follow each owner’s instructions because I know every dog has their own routine and personality.

Lexie was great with communication. Huck had a great day with the other dogs! I appreciated that she rinsed him off before I picked him up too. He had fun in the run and got a bit dirty. :). Loved the horses, goats and chickens. Will use again- only drawback is location isn’t very close to my home.

We can tell Toby( our fur baby) just had an amazing time with her and the other pups she was very appreciative to him and updated us throughout his day.

About: Hi, my name is Sergii. I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for over 35 years. Now I have 2 dogs: a poodle and a boxer. My wife and I love dogs and they love us. We treat our dogs more like family members than pets. We know how it’s difficult to be away from your pup, regardless if it is only a couple of hours or days. We are a team - two very experienced dog owners. We have experience with senior dogs&cats, and pets with special needs; dogs&cats who are highly anxious, and pets who are hyper activity and need a lot of care and attention. Now we put our animal expertise to our small business for pet services. We aim to ensure your dog receives just as much love and care as it does in your presence. I’m willing to feed, walk and play with your dogs when you are not available. My schedule changes from week to week, as I’m still engaged in the transportation of pets, so always have wife for backup. We really care about healthy life style and guarantee the best care for them. I certified the American Red Cross for pet first aid as well. All animals under my care are insured, insurance policy included veterinarian reimbursement. Meeting new animal friends is something that will always bring me joy. Your dog will be in the professional and loving care when under my watch. If I sound like someone you could trust to care for your fur babies, please send me message. DROP-IN VISIT (At your house) I can go to your home multiple times per day to feed your pets food/water, go outside to potty & play, administer medications, etc. Just let me know how many times per day you’d like me to drop-in to check up on your pets/how much time you’d like me to spend while there and what you’d like me to do during drop-in visits and I will make it happen. A care summary report and photos of my drop-in visit with your pets will be sent after each drop-in. DOGGIE WALKS Walks are 30 minutes long, but can also include playtime if requested (e.g 20 minute walk + 10 minutes of play time). 
Meals, treats, water, and medication can be given before or after the walk if requested, just let me know and I would be more than happy to do that.
A care summary report and photos from our walk will be sent after each walk. HOUSE SITTING I can care for your animals in your own home by ensuring your animals are safe and well cared for. I'll spend as much time with your pet as needed so that they have a true companion in your absence. I believe that the best pet care is done when your pet is in his/her own surroundings. I make sure gates and doors are closed and locked when needed, I follow safety checks in the home to ensure your pets are protected. In my clients home I will happily comply with any instructions to keep your pups safe. Anything that is needed for your fur babies!

There is only one dog and plenty of room for the dogs to stretch their legs or spread out. I am active and will run or walk your pet!

About: I’ve had my own 3 dogs for the last 6 years. Before that, I would take care of my friends animals. I often dog sit and cat sit for close friends and family. Figured I would do it on here, too! I have trained all of my dogs, nothing crazy. Just the basics. One of my dogs does have health issues and another has really bad allergies so I definitely know what it’s like to have a certain routine per animal. All my animals needs are different and I’m here to provide that to lessen your stress ☺️ All day, all night!!! I am also able to travel. I drive a lot so I don’t mind if I have to travel a bit. I would love for the pet owners to give me a run down no matter what! Even if your animal is low maintenance. My dogs are high maintenance so I’m also used to that. I just like specific instructions, I feel it makes it easier for everyone involved! Especially if I’m pet sitting in your home. That’s your safe space.

About: Hi! I’m a caring and dependable pet sitter with experience caring for both dogs and cats. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’m committed to providing them with plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, litter box care, and keeping pets comfortable in their usual routines. Your pets’ safety and happiness are always my top priorities! I am a work from home mom and have all the time to play with your fur babies! I have a large fenced in backyard that is fully secure. I also have an air conditioned garage. All pets are welcome to be inside all day long but sometimes they want to play and run and it’s nice to have a cool down spot. All animals are welcome to stay inside all day and night. I am a light sleeper and wake up to let my senior dog, Lola, out at night for bathroom breaks regularly. I am always home and my daughter has been raised and daughter how to be safe and appropriate with new animals. We treat others and their pets with the respect we would want in return.

About: About Me 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. That’s exactly how I treat every pup in my care. Services Provided I provide a calm, clean, and cozy home environment where dogs receive plenty of love, exercise, structure, and personalized attention throughout the day. Because pet care is my full-time job, your dog gets consistent supervision, companionship, and care—whether they’re an energetic adventurer or a couch-loving cuddle bug. What You Can Expect 🐾 Full-time pet care provider—your dog gets my full attention 🐾 Daily walks, play sessions, and enrichment activities 🐾 Plenty of toys and interactive food bowls for mental stimulation 🐾 Personalized photo and video updates throughout their stay 🐾 Home full-time—dogs are rarely left alone 🐾 Safe, fenced yard for zoomies and sunbathing 🐾 Experience with puppies, senior dogs, and pets with special needs 🐾 Complimentary pet cleaning before pickup 🐾 Flexible pickup and drop-off scheduling when possible, including accommodations for delayed flights or changing travel plans with advance notice Peace of Mind I know how important peace of mind is when leaving your dog with someone new. My goal is to make every pup feel safe, comfortable, loved, and excited to come back for their next stay. Whether you’re away for a weekend or an extended trip, I’ll do my best to accommodate changes to your schedule whenever possible, so you can focus on your travels knowing your dog is in good hands. Let your dog enjoy their own little vacation while you’re away—with peace of mind for you and plenty of tail wags for them! Please note: I host multiple dogs at the same time. I carefully manage each guest to ensure every dog receives plenty of attention, exercise, and a safe, enjoyable experience. Additional Care & Scheduling To keep things fair and transparent, additional charges may apply when a stay requires significantly more time, supervision, or specialized care than standard boarding. 🐾 Medication administration: $5/day for routine oral or topical medications. More involved medication administration, including injections or medications requiring significant additional time, may be subject to a higher fee. 🐾 Intact dogs: A $5/day surcharge may apply to unspayed or unneutered dogs due to the additional supervision and management required in a multi-dog home. 🐾 Early/late pickup or drop-off: A $15 fee may apply when arrival or departure falls outside the agreed-upon scheduling window. 🐾 Last-minute bookings: Bookings requested within 24 hours of drop-off are subject to a $20 last-minute booking fee. 🐾 Daycare over 8 hours: Daycare stays exceeding 8 hours are subject to the regular overnight boarding rate. 🐾 Pickup/drop-off transportation: Transportation may be available by arrangement for an additional fee. I’ll always communicate any applicable additional charges with you before modifying a booking whenever possible. My goal is to keep everything transparent while making sure every dog receives the time and attention they deserve. 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. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I maintain a clean, calm, and comforting space. I’m reliable and treat every pet as if they were my own.

I would be really grateful if you give me the opportunity to make you and your pets life happier by providing my services. I can’t wait to hear from you all, thanks!!! I’m currently working from home so I’ll have i plenty of time throughout my day to help you with your furry friend while your away! I don’t mind walks and I’m more than happy to play with your animal to form stimulation for them while your away on business- work

Martina, did an amazing job with our Snuggles. She sent pictures and gave us updates throughout his stay. He appeared to be well kept and happy. We will definitely use her services again in the future!

By the time our "meet and greet" was over, I knew that Debbie was the right caregiver for our sweet girls. And I was right! We received pictures on a daily basis as well as comments as to how each dog was doing. When I came to pick up the dogs, they were excited to see me, but they weren't racing for the door, trying to escape. Clearly, they felt comfortable during their stay. We will be calling on Debbie from now on!

Lauren is amazing! She watched my two dogs last minute, followed their feeding and medication schedule, took them on walks, and sent lots of photos and updates. I always am nervous to leave my dogs somewhere new and she completely put me at ease. My pups came back happy and relaxed, and I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in great hands. Highly recommend and will definitely be booking again!

Lexie is fantastic! She took such good care of our two dogs over Thanksgiving. The indoor and outdoor spaces she has created for the dogs are wonderful, with plenty of room for them to run around and play together. Lexie sent us one little update a day to see how well the dogs were doing and how much fun they were having. She was very thorough during the intake process to ensure the dogs' individual needs were met. We could not be happier with their care and will be back again!

We needed a sitter for our dog for a few hours while attending a graduation and we did not know anyone in the area. We found Aiko on Rover and everything worked out perfectly! Our dog can be nervous about going with someone new but she very quickly decided that Aiko would be a good friend. Aiko shared some pictures to let us know all was good and we were able to enjoy the graduation

Shannon was great with our pet Zeke in booking a last minute reservation. She was great with communication and photos while we were away which helped with ease of mind. She seemed experienced in pet care and that was also a plus. We would definitely bring Zeke back for a future visit.

We left our 7 month old English Cocker Spaniel, Bo, with Merrell while visiting family in town. He had never stayed with anyone else overnight so we were already a little anxious, but Merrell did a great job welcoming him in and making sure he was loved on. She kept us updated on his status and sent lots of pictures throughout his stay. It worked out well and we are already planning on booking with her again when we visit for Christmas. Highly recommend Merrell if you’re in need of a sitter in Columbia.

Fantastic sitter! Kirsten is very responsive and super sweet to your pets. She handled our cat's odd litter (wood pellet) without issue, which made everything super smooth! Her cat, Momo, was also super gentle and accepting of our Mindy. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter, and I will be holding onto her info for when we need a sitter again!

About: I’ve been a dog lover my whole life! I grew up with two dogs and have spent years pet sitting and caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I love walks, playtime, cuddles, and making sure every pup feels happy and comfortable while their humans are away. I’d love to meet your furry friend! 🐾 I currently work full time but have a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to care for your dog. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting around my work schedule, and I’m happy to work with you to find a time that fits your pet’s routine. I love spending my free time outdoors and would be excited to have a furry companion join me! I’m happy to welcome dogs into my apartment and provide a comfortable, safe, and relaxed home away from home. Your pup will get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and cuddles while they’re staying with me. I’ll do my best to keep their routine as close to normal as possible so they feel right at home!

About: I’ve been around all types/sizes of dogs! I have taken care of many of my friends/neighbors pets. I have two dogs of my own and I know all the responsibility it takes! I have also volunteered at my local animal shelter for the past few years where I had to pass a test specifically on caring for dogs! I’m currently in school and working part-time, but in my free time I’d love to spend time with your pets! My schedule is also flexible enough that I can do weekly visits as I am very reliable and dependable. I will keep dogs on a leash at all times if there is not a fence. I am very aware of my surroundings so making sure all doors are closed, harness is on correctly, etc.

Lindsey went above and beyond to make sure they felt loved and sent lots of pictures to put us at ease. Thank you so much!!!
