“Fantastic! So, so thankful for Joy and her wonderful family that took care of our pups for an extra long weekend. We’ve been looking for someone in our area for a while that would take special care to make our anxious dog feel comfortable. He cannot stay at a boarding facility since he gets so overwhelmed with the barking, small spaces, and lack of time they are able to spend with him in this setting. He did wonderful with Joy and our puppy had a great time playing with the other dogs as well. I can’t thank her enough. We will definitely be using her again.”

“Kona loves staying with Brooke! It's just like being at home, but with extra friends, like a sleep over! Thanks, Brooke, for taking care of our girl like she's your own!”

“Elaine and Chip are so kind and accommodating! They were able to watch our dog Mingo on short notice, and have been wonderful to him. We will definitely be reaching out to them for our next trip!!”

“Ashley was great! Chang looked like he was having a great time in his pictures that she sent to me. I’m very appreciative of her being comfortable with Chang being old and having several issues. I will definitely be using her again!”

“My first experience was amazing! Adrienne ensured my little one was safe and cared for. She walked me through the process with so much patience. A bonus…she is an amazing pet photographer!”

“The absolute best family! They made sure Rockie was well taken care of & treated her as their own. I can tell Rockie enjoyed her stay & fell in love with her new friends! I was so nervous with this being my first time booking & she is my baby lol, but Ximena & Travis kept me updated and sent pictures throughout her stay.”

“I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my dog! My pup is usually very shy, but from the photos I received, she looked so calm and comfortable, which gave me so much peace of mind. Laura provided a great number of updates, and it was so reassuring to see my dog in such good hands. I truly appreciate the care and attention she provided, and I will definitely be booking again. Highly recommend!”

“Kaylee is a doll! She has a lovely home and took wonderful care of my Meli! She sent me several pictures every day as well as updated me on how she was doing. My dog can be very anxious but Kaylee talked to her and took her on lots of walks and played with her. I will absolutely utilize Kaylee's services anytime I need someone to take care of my baby.”

“Shelby is an excellent boarding hostess. She is patient and kind and she and her 2 dogs made Shadow feel right at home. She sent photos and is an excellent communicator. We will call Shelby again!”


“I had a lot of anxiety leaving my pup for the very first time and Russell did an amazing job with her! I would highly recommend him for your pet’s care! She was very well taken care of and he played with her, took her on walks and made her feel right at home. She is a high energy dog and he did fantastic with her!”


“Shavonna was amazing with our puppy!! I can't describe how comfortable she made us feel about taking care of Bella. Pictures and updates during her stay without being asked was a bonus. Don't think I'll ever use another sitter... unless she's unavailable lol”
“Krysti was great! last minute I needed a dog sitter for a few days and she was very accommodating when it came to drop off and pick up times. She kept me up to date with photos, and my baby seemed to have a great little staycation with krysti and her family!”

“Diana & Juan did such a wonderful job taking care of our Golden Doodle!! Their communication with us throughout the entire boarding was exceptional. We received daily updates along with many pics & videos. We will definitely be using them again and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for top notch care for your pet!”

“Victoria was really amazing. Our Lola can be a handful (she's a Frenchie) but she thrived for the 2+ weeks she was with Victoria! On top of that Victoria was sending pictures every few days to keep us posted. In fact it's clear that we have some work to do now that we are back as Victoria set the bar very high! :) Without hesitation, I would recommend Victoria to watch your little loved one while you are away.”

“Christina is a wonderful pet sitter. Her personality is very nice and you can tell she is an animal lover. Her house is clean and set up great to accommodate her furry visitors. The fenced back yard is a plus and I know our dog Bella loved being outside occasionally. I appreciate that Christina sends pictures and it is obvious Bella is happy. I would highly recommend that you can entrust Christina with your beloved pet.”

About: I’m different from other cat sitters because I don’t just “check in” on cats—I take the time to truly care for them. I understand that every cat has their own personality, routines, and boundaries, and I respect all of it. Whether your cat is playful, shy, anxious, or a total diva, I move at their pace and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I pay close attention to behavior, appetite, and litter habits, give genuine affection (when welcomed), and always prioritize a calm, clean environment. To me, cat sitting isn’t just a job—it’s building trust with your cat and peace of mind for you. 🐾

I currently work day shifts, anywhere from 6am-2pm. My availability may vary and will be updated week to week in order to reflect my current schedule.

About: I live in a I don’t just watch pets, I get to know them. From learning their quirky habits to keeping their routines steady, I treat every furry guest like my own. I focus on creating a calm, cozy, and genuinely loving environment, so your pet feels safe, understood, and totally at ease. With consistent communication, personalised care, and a whole lot of heart, I make sure your pet’s stay isn’t just stress-free—it’s something they actually enjoy. Pet care is naturally set into my daily and weekly routine. I schedule my day around feeding times, walks, play time, and check-ins to ensure every pet gets consistent care. Mornings and evenings are dedicated to exercise, enrichment, and cuddles, while afternoons include potty breaks, supervision, and rest time. My schedule is flexible and intentionally designed so I can give every animal the attention, and time they deserve. When pets stay in my home, I create a safe, supervised, and comforting environment set to their needs. I maintain clean spaces, provide cozy rest areas, and offer play time. I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications, and preferred activities, so their stay feels familiar and stress-free. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my goal is to keep their routine uninterrupted. I handle feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, medication, playtime, and any specific instructions exactly as provided. I also respect the home environment by keeping everything tidy and secure. Whether in my home or yours, I focus on communication, safety, and reliable, compassionate care that helps pets feel calm, comfortable, and understood.
“Kristin was amazing with Mabey! She treated her just like one of the family and helped at a time when I was in a pinch to find pet care during a recent and hectic move. I definitely recommend!”

About: I've had dogs my entire life and started dog sitting at a young age. I currently have 2 dogs and would gladly welcome your pet into the mix. I feel that dogs truly are our best friends so you can rest assured they will be well taken care of when they're with me. I've watched puppies, seniors and I've even watched a dog that just got out of surgery. I freelance as a photographer and I spend part of my day editing which means plenty of time with your dog! I will make sure your pet gets lots of attention and play time. I walk the dogs daily and have a TON of toys. I have 2 dogs that can play with and keep your dog company. I have crates if needed as well. Dogs will be leashed in my yard at all times but I have parks near by to make sure they get exercise.
“I would highly recommend Sara. She kept my pup while I worked all day and to ease my mind, she sent pics and video. She took very good care of my Carebear. He was so happy to play with her pups. I am booking again”

About: Hi I’m Morgan! I have grown up with and around animals my entire life. Whether it was a family pet, my own pet, a friends pet or a neighbors pet - four legged friends have been an intricate part of all of my life’s journey. My fur baby passed away back in April this year, he was 12 years old and I had him since he was 8 weeks- my heart has been so empty without him. While I am not ready to fully adopt another pup yet, I decided in the meantime I could love on yours! I have a large fenced in back yard that is perfect for fetch and frequent potty visits. My neighborhood is very pet friendly and perfect for walks throughout the day or an evening stroll. I am great at teaching dogs how to sit and shake and also have very close friends who are vet techs, should an emergency arise. I work fully from home so I will be available throughout the day for frequent potty breaks, walks and in between meeting belly rubs! I can easily accommodate dogs of all ages and adapt to their schedules at home. Working from home allows me to be available to your pet all day and ensure they feel loved and cared for. I treat every pet the way I would want mine treated, I know firsthand how anxious it is to leave your animal with another person. I will provide video and picture updates throughout the day and promise to keep an open line of communication with you. My home is clean and non smoking, and I do allow cuddles in bed in the evening!

“Joy is amazing!!! I don’t even know where to begin. 1) She is a great communicator: Her messages when booking, during day care, and even her report card were completed super quickly. 2) Her house has a large fenced yard which is a super bonus! 3) Her family dogs are sooo calm and well trained. They were perfect playmates for my boy. 4) She sent me so many pics of my little guy while he was in day care which really reassured me that he was in good hands and having a great day. I highly recommend using Joy for your pet needs. We will DEFINITELY be back! 5) I could honestly tell from her pics and from our meeting each other that she has a passion for what she does and that she really cared about baby.”

I love working with animals, it’s my passion other than being a mother to my kids. I went to school for veterinary assistant and have a certification to help animals or to take care of them. I treat animals is like they was my own. I’m very sweet and gentle when it comes to someone pet and if you let me I can show you how a good pet sitter I can be! My skills are is to let the pet know that I’m in control because sometimes the pet might run over you, so you have to show them who’s boss. Any other way I will not neglect the animal nor abuse, I feel that’s an awful thing to do! Like I said you have to treat the animals as just as if was my own because they are human beings just in a different way! I work from home. So basically I be at home the majority of the day. So I have time on my hands to fit pet care in my schedule! I make sure they are well love as much love I give to my boys and daughter! I also will take them on walks as needed to get the nature outdoors!

Dogs mean so much to me and they have a soft spot in my heart. I will dutifully care for your pets and make them feel loved in any way I can! I am currently a sophomore majoring in Biology at Wofford College so besides from class, I will give your pets plenty of attention and care. My Monday-Wednesday-Friday schedule varies from my Tuesday-Thursday schedule so feel free to ask me about that! I am also apart of greek life and a club on campus which will only take a little bit of my time. Otherwise, I have time to stay overnight for your pets. Any routines that the pet normally has I can continue while you are away! My dog’s health is important to me and I know how important schedules are so I will be sure to follow them to the best of my ability!
About: I have done pet sitting for several years and love all types and sizes of dogs and cats as well as other animals.

I will spend time talking to your dog or cat as well as walking with your dog and interacting with them to include playtime with them if that is what you desire. I do work a 9-5 pm job Monday - Friday and and Saturdays 9-1 pm which means I would be unavailable during these hours to care for your pet. I am able to stay overnight and feed them in the morning and then come back to your home and stay with them for the evening but am not available to let them out during the day. Your pet will be in the loving care of someone that appreciates and enjoys pets. I have also done extensive foster care with dogs restoring them to good health from sometimes a not so nice situation. I have also fostered puppies until they were housebroken so that they could then be adopted out to a loving family as well. If you are wanting someone to stay with your pets in the evenings I would definitely be happy to do so.

“Megan was great to work with! My mother-in-law was staying with our dogs Echo & Loki while my husband and I were travelling and we wanted to find someone to walk our pups daily for her. Megan was very friendly and quick to reply while messaging about our request and easy to work with. The meet and greet went well and the pups enjoyed meeting her. She went above and beyond by going with us for a walk around the neighborhood during the meet. We knew our pups were going to be taken care of! Everything seemed to go well while we were away and the pups were exercised daily. We would definitely use Megan for a dog walker if needed in the future.”

About: I have been a pet owner all of my life and there is a special joy and comfort that only a dog or cat can give us! I think it is important for our pets to get daily exercise to keep them happy and healthy. I'm an avid fitness enthusiast and I love all animals so getting your dog out of the house for daily walks is the perfect fit for both me and your furry friend! It's a great way for your dog to release that playful energy while strengthening their health as well. Playtime is also important in keeping our pets happy and friendly! Getting out and throwing balls, frisbees, sticks, etc is one of my favorite things to do with my own dogs and it's another great form of exercise for your pup!

“Fantastic! So, so thankful for Joy and her wonderful family that took care of our pups for an extra long weekend. We’ve been looking for someone in our area for a while that would take special care to make our anxious dog feel comfortable. He cannot stay at a boarding facility since he gets so overwhelmed with the barking, small spaces, and lack of time they are able to spend with him in this setting. He did wonderful with Joy and our puppy had a great time playing with the other dogs as well. I can’t thank her enough. We will definitely be using her again.”

“Kona loves staying with Brooke! It's just like being at home, but with extra friends, like a sleep over! Thanks, Brooke, for taking care of our girl like she's your own!”

“Elaine and Chip are so kind and accommodating! They were able to watch our dog Mingo on short notice, and have been wonderful to him. We will definitely be reaching out to them for our next trip!!”

“Ashley was great! Chang looked like he was having a great time in his pictures that she sent to me. I’m very appreciative of her being comfortable with Chang being old and having several issues. I will definitely be using her again!”

“My first experience was amazing! Adrienne ensured my little one was safe and cared for. She walked me through the process with so much patience. A bonus…she is an amazing pet photographer!”

“The absolute best family! They made sure Rockie was well taken care of & treated her as their own. I can tell Rockie enjoyed her stay & fell in love with her new friends! I was so nervous with this being my first time booking & she is my baby lol, but Ximena & Travis kept me updated and sent pictures throughout her stay.”

“We couldn't have found a better pet sitter than Lisa P. Our dog Petey has a lot of anxiety, but Lisa knew exactly how to deal with him. She sent us pictures every day of him and he looked so happy and relaxed. We are so happy we found her and could relax on our vacation and not worry about him.”

“I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my dog! My pup is usually very shy, but from the photos I received, she looked so calm and comfortable, which gave me so much peace of mind. Laura provided a great number of updates, and it was so reassuring to see my dog in such good hands. I truly appreciate the care and attention she provided, and I will definitely be booking again. Highly recommend!”

“Kaylee is a doll! She has a lovely home and took wonderful care of my Meli! She sent me several pictures every day as well as updated me on how she was doing. My dog can be very anxious but Kaylee talked to her and took her on lots of walks and played with her. I will absolutely utilize Kaylee's services anytime I need someone to take care of my baby.”

“Shelby is an excellent boarding hostess. She is patient and kind and she and her 2 dogs made Shadow feel right at home. She sent photos and is an excellent communicator. We will call Shelby again!”


“I had a lot of anxiety leaving my pup for the very first time and Russell did an amazing job with her! I would highly recommend him for your pet’s care! She was very well taken care of and he played with her, took her on walks and made her feel right at home. She is a high energy dog and he did fantastic with her!”

“Victoria was really amazing. Our Lola can be a handful (she's a Frenchie) but she thrived for the 2+ weeks she was with Victoria! On top of that Victoria was sending pictures every few days to keep us posted. In fact it's clear that we have some work to do now that we are back as Victoria set the bar very high! :) Without hesitation, I would recommend Victoria to watch your little loved one while you are away.”

“Christina is a wonderful pet sitter. Her personality is very nice and you can tell she is an animal lover. Her house is clean and set up great to accommodate her furry visitors. The fenced back yard is a plus and I know our dog Bella loved being outside occasionally. I appreciate that Christina sends pictures and it is obvious Bella is happy. I would highly recommend that you can entrust Christina with your beloved pet.”


About: I have taken care of dogs and cats all my life, recently I have fostered several puppies until they were old enough for adoption. I have experience with dogs of all size and am used to walking dogs that pull on the leash :) I have stayed in others homes over night and have had dogs in my home while their family was away! I am currently working part time and make the schedule for my company so I can typically work around any schedule, however scheduling a sitting a week prior is preferred. If I am working it is typically 3:00 pm - 9:00 pm. I have a large fenced in backyard and a 6 year old dog who is very friendly and has never had any issues with pups who have come to stay with us in the past! My neighborhood has plenty of walking trails that are shaded for days that are hot.
