“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 !!”
“Sarah and Hagan provided a great place for my Weimaraner to stay over a long weekend. They have an air conditioned kennel with large fenced in area perfect for any size dog to be comfortable! Our 11 month old pup has a lot of energy and can get anxious when left alone but seemed to have a great time and was checked on regularly. They are very educated on handling dogs. We received plenty of pictures and videos during our dog’s stay. Would highly recommend Sarah and Hagan!”
“Emilee is a great dog sitter! Maisie had an issue one night and Emilee was communicative and caring, and I felt confident in how she handled the situation. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave Maisie with her again. Thank you Emilee for treating Maisie like your own.”
“Samantha did a fantastic job with our two dogs. We got frequent updates with so many pictures and the dog had a lot of fun. If we have to leave our dogs, we'll leave them with her!”
“This is Reggie’s second time staying with Jennica. And we are so happy to have found her! She clearly loves dogs and gives our fur ball love and attention. She provides constant updates and stays on top of communication. We really appreciate her services!”
“Nicole was very patient with this nervous dog momma! She made sure Diesel was comfortable while introducing him to other dogs! Thanks to her, he made new friends! I'll definitely use her again for boarding or even walks! Diesel loved her, too!”
“Ms. Alexis was absolutely amazing watching Biscuit! She was so accommodating and helpful as we had a sudden funeral to attend. Biscuit was extremely well taken care of and if you need someone who will truly love and take care of your pet, I 100% recommend using Ms. Alexis”
“We had a great experience! Daisy was well taken care of, Whittney was great communicating while we were away, and our fur baby was excited to stay! Thank you again and we can’t wait to bring her back.”
“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.”
“omg, Mel is amazing! My mom and I always heard bad things about Rover, but we had a family emergency during Master's week (everywhere was booked!) and we decided to try our luck on Rover and found Mel, we instantly fell in love (as well as our two dogs)! Mel is amazing with communication, keeping your pets happy, and Grey is an amazing playmate! We will be booking again either for trips or whenever we need a break from our dogs. I highly recommend Mel <3”
“Jessie is the most amazing sitter she is so attentive to your pet. She pays close attention to his eating and bathroom. She does everything possible to comfort him and pet him. Her care is beyond and above any I have ever heard about. She even made him treats and special food. Amazing!”
“Tater had a blast at Poria’s house! Poria gave daily updates with multiple photos. Tater came back smelling even better than how I left her, lol. Will definitely be booking again!”
“Terry has all but adopted my babies. They love her as much as she loves them!! As soon as they walk in her door they leave me and are checking everything out. Terry is the best!!”
“Charles did an amazing job taking care of Kenji. From daily updates and photos to ensuring Kenji had walks and playtime. Kenji got along well with Knox, who is a Dalmatian as well. Kenji was happy when I returned, and it was a huge relief to know he was in such good hands. Highly recommend Charles for anyone needing a dependable and caring dog sitter!”
“Harley’s experience was wonderful. She enjoyed playing with their family dogs and cooling off in their kiddie pool. We enjoyed seeing pictures and videos of her having a great time during her visit. Our experience was also wonderful. They were very flexible for us with drop off and pick up when our plans changed. They even let us know when she ran out of food and offered to pick her up some for us. They went above and beyond and took great care of our Harley girl. Very grateful, would 100% recommend and will use them for future trips. Would give them more stars if I could!”

“Courtney was amazing when she watched my two girls!! She played with them and gave them lots of love so I felt at ease having her in my house taking care of my cats. She even tidied up around my house a little which was a huge help given my stressful travels. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter or cleaning person! Thank you Courtney!!”
“It was our first time using Kelsey and she was absolutely wonderful. Our animals are a bit difficult with their needs and its really hard to find someone who actually cares about their well being and I can truly say Kelsey has a heart of gold and made sure everything was as we left it and each animal had what they needed.So grateful and absolutely recommend!”
“Michelle made being away from home an absolute breeze, I usually leave my cats with friends for the weekend but I just moved and haven’t been able to find anyone I know. Grateful for someone that was able to provide me with updates and check in on anything needed each visit. The communication was great and I hope to be able to have her check in on my pets anytime I’m out of town!”
About: I have grown up with cats my whole life. I currently have 2 females who I love dearly. I’m experience in medication administration and senior cat care from one of my kitties who passed last December. I will scoop your littler box, play with them and pet/cuddle them if they allow it. My cats are the queens of my house- I’d love to meet yours!
“Our grouchy old man loves Samantha and she always is such a pleasure to work with! She gives me the peace of mind knowing he’s checked on while we are gone and gives him treats and pets and the undivided attention that he deserves. The pictures are great and Samantha is just so dang good at what she does. Win/win in my book!”
“Amanda was phenomenal with our cat Moose she checked in on him as promised and filled out a report card daily with pictures. She followed instructions and made sure that our feeder and camera were set each night. We will definitely will be using her in the future. Highly recommend.”
“Haley was fantastic! She kept me posted and shared a few cute pics of my little guy with each visit, which made this nervous mama feel a lot more comfortable! We would definitely work with Haley in the future!”

About: I myself am a dog owner. I have one shitzus who is 16 years old and a new Jack Russell puppy who is now 5 years old. I love playing tug a war. Running with them. Cudding and talking to them. I can never find a dog who loves taking a bath because for some reason my dogs don't but, they love to have their hair combed. I have a open home and let them run around inside and outside. My dogs usually sleep on my bed. I love cuddling with my dogs during the rain it's fun to know they have someone to rely on. I am a soon to be college student. I’m living with my best friends but are apartment complex is super friendly to animals! We have a dog park and many more! My besties both are big dog lovers. I myself love all animals. I do have a part time job I do get my schedule during the end of the week. So just communicate with me if you want something done a certain way or have a schedule you ALWAYS follow. I am a friendly and open person. So don't be afraid to talk to me. I work from home so I just stay home most of the time. I’m more of a gamer and I like to watch anime. So I’ll be there to snuggle and give your pets love and kisses! And feed them. Well I have a a fenced back yard!:3 where they can play and have fun! We also have a little dog park that I can walk with them to. I just let them be themselves. I want them to feel that they are happy with me and safe. I work from home and by the time the time I work all the babies will be in bed and have gone to the bathroom one final time. So I'm mostly free throughout the day. We have a fenced yard where they can run around and play outside! Plus plenty of space inside for them to walk around and explore
About: I've cared for cats from kittens to senior. As well as cats with medical issues. I love the company of cats and getting to know their personalities. When I can make a cat feel loved and cared for, my heart overflows. I especially love senior cats, as I wish for them to know they are loved in their twilight years.
“Katie provided great care for my kitties! It was really comforting to read her reports and see photos from each visit. Katie followed directions, was very responsible, and was great at communicating and asking questions. I would definitely hire Katie again if she’s available!”

“My little guy enjoyed his time with Kim. We were visiting the area for an afternoon/ early evening visit with family and just needed a couple hours of sitter time … and Kim was very accommodating. She made our visit worry fear. Bryce returned to us and didn’t skip a beat.”
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)!
“Laura took excellent care of my girl Lucy. She kept me updated throughout the day with comments and pictures. It was obvious Lucy enjoyed herself. I will be sure to ask Laura to care for Lucy or her sister and brother Gretta and Hawk in the future.”
“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”
“Very pleasant young lady. Took excellent care of my little girl cotton. Thanks for the picture updates!!! They put my mind at ease. This was my first time using Rover and thanks to Nahla it won’t be my last!!!”
About: Hello! I’ve been a dog sitter for over 12 years now. From assisting with the birth of puppies and kittens, to helping our older babies get out of their bed, and holding their paw while they take their last breaths, I’ve done it all. I truly have a passion for animals and want to provide them with the best life possible. After all, they are our best friends! I have experience with epileptic, pregnant and in heat, sick, physically disabled, and as I mentioned, new borns and older dogs! I have a very open schedule! I’m free in the mornings, nights, middle of the day, and on weekends. whenever you need me, I’m here! I never let the dogs out without a leash at my house, no matter how experienced they are with the area or how well they listen. Their safety is my biggest priority. Let me know your preferences and guidelines to follow!
“Our pups had an awesome time at their daycare date with Payton and her pups! Payton was prompt in her responses, punctual, open with her communication, and great with managing our crazy puppy as well as our older dog while we were away for the day. Her dogs are also all very sweet and playful. Definitely would recommend!”
About: I have 25 years of experience as a pet sitter being self-dubbed the "overnight queen" as I specialize in overnight stays of any length. The dogs and I have FUN slumber parties during which I fully engage with and interact with them, playing with their toys and giving the most excellent tummy rubs imaginable! Owners are happy too as they return to a happy pet - dogs "tell" by their behavior and in over 500 pet sits, every dog has been safe, sound ... and happy! In fact, many owners say I did a great job because "my dog acted like it didn't even know I was away!" All dogs love me ... and I love them. Dogs are people, too - only better ! I am self-employed so can set my schedule, especially with as much advance notice as possible. I often bring my little 9 pound, Shih Tzu, which I keep and a carry crate and kennel that has worked out fine with both dogs and cats. We can arrange a meet and greet ahead of time to make sure everyone is comfortable. I have separate bedrooms if dogs need their own privacy, but I do try to have dogs interact and be friends. I have a long hallway to play fun games and go get it!
“Hillary was great. My dogs had a good day and came home tired. They got to run and play ball. She even cut their nails which they never let me do but let her. She is great with them.”
About: Hi! I’m Avery—an experienced animal handler, lifelong dog lover, and amateur eventer based in Aiken, SC. I’ve spent my life around animals, from growing up in a pet-loving household to training young horses and competing in three-phase equestrian events. I adore both dogs and cats and understand how to care for animals of all personalities—from energetic to reserved. Working with animals has taught me patience, instinct, and how to calmly manage a wide range of temperaments. My two dogs, Blake and Peanut, are well-trained and social. Blake is the gentle leader—friendly and confident—while Peanut is sweet, a little shy, and loves snuggling once he warms up. Together, they help set a calm, welcoming tone for visiting pets. I’ve also volunteered with rescue groups like the S.A.V.E. Coalition (Houston, TX) and the Medfield Animal Shelter, where I fostered and rehabilitated Luna, an abused special-needs Pit Bull. Whether your dog or cat is high-energy, reactive, senior, or shy, I take the time to understand their needs and tailor care accordingly. Why Choose Me? • Experienced with dogs, cats, horses, and rescue animals • Calm, responsible, and attentive to individual pet needs • Communicative, dependable, and flexible • Pets in my care are treated like family Dog Walking & Drop-In Visits As someone with a flexible, work-from-home schedule, I offer mid-day dog walks and drop-in visits—perfect for keeping your pets happy, exercised, and cared for while you’re at work or away. These are a great option for regular support and can easily fit into my daily routine between meetings. Whether your pup needs a potty break, playtime, or a quick check-in and meal, I’ve got it covered. My Home & Care Style Blake and Peanut have free roam of our home and securely fenced yard, but I always supervise guest pets closely until I understand their comfort level. I provide a structured routine with room for play, relaxation, enrichment, and quiet time. If your pet prefers their own space, I make sure that’s respected. Before You Book I’ll ask about your pet’s routines, personality, medical needs, and quirks to ensure their care mirrors what they’re used to. I want them to feel as comfortable as they do at home. Let’s Connect! Whether you need a one-time drop-in, consistent walking help, or full pet sitting, I’d love to be part of your pet’s routine. Reach out to schedule a meet-and-greet—I’m excited to welcome your pet into a calm, loving environment. I work remotely with a flexible schedule, which makes it easy for me to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and boarding. I’m available on weekdays between meetings and for full-time care on weekends. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine—I genuinely love doing it. I have a fully fenced yard and two friendly, well-socialized dogs—Blake and Peanut—who provide great company. I closely supervise introductions and can crate your dog if needed. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities, and I tailor each dog’s care to their personality and needs.
About: I have always had a passion for loving and caring for animals. I am working on a change of career and want to earn extra income and hope to slowly transition to being able to do more through Rover. I have grown up with animals and have cared for everything from a duck to a horse. My grandparents owned a farm and I took care of and trained the horses and also caref for the dog and cats on the farm. I also have fostered through the Humane Society to help dogs and cats find their furever home. I can't wait to get to know your fur baby and help you with their care and everyday life. I love walking around at parks and certain trails. I can stay in the neighborhood, as well, if preferred. Let me know if they have a favorite treat or particular way they like to walk or play. I am a stay at home mom to a 3 year old who loves all animals. This will give her the opportunity to socialize with more animals. This will also provide more opportunities to teach her responsibility through watching how I care for animals. I usually check the pets water and food, if asked. I give medicine the ones who need it. For dogs, I usually include a short walk so they can potty or let them out into their yard. For cats, I’ll try to engage in play for a little bit so they can get some exercise in, as well.
About: I have owned dogs for over 34 years. Our dogs have ranged from Great Pyreneese and Grey Hounds down to 5 pound chihuahuas. Our last dog (Jack the teacup Chihuahua) lived until he was 18 years old. We decided it would be fun to help others board their beloved dogs as we had the privilege of using house sitters many times over the last 34 years. I am an adjunct faculty at a nearby University and teach almost exclusively online. My schedule at home is pretty much that of a stay at home mom. My husband and I love to take long walks and have always in the past included our dogs. We have a large home (2700 square ft) with no stairs. We have a large fenced in backyard and we do have an in ground pool. I always go outside with our dogs as I do not trust hawks and owls (especially with small breeds) and not all dogs are familiar with pools. I love to share my couch with pets to get extra cuddle time in. We allow dogs in every room of our home and invite smaller dogs into bed with us. Food and water is always available (except when an owner wants a specific schedule). Most of the home is wood floors with the exception of our living room.
About: Growing up, I always had 4 pets at any time, and was in charge of all care for them! 2 dogs and 2 cats, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, litter, and lovings. I currently have 1 cat and 1 pup of my own. My most frequent client has 4 large dogs and 1 bunny, all of which get spoiled under my care. I have experience with the most common pet breeds: dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, fish, and hamsters, Guinea pigs. I am entirely caring, responsible, assertive when needed, and prompt. I work full time Monday-Friday in downtown Augusta 8:30am-5:30pm. I’m currently not able to leave during the day for lunch time potty breaks unless it is very close to there. For home boarding and doggie day care, my boyfriend mainly works from home and loves sharing the love ! The app also doesn’t always quote the correct prices for me, so please message me if you have any questions :) For house sitting, I fully stay at your home and take care of your pet, as if I am at my own home. I always take care pets and the home itself. I will always leave a place cleaner than when I arrived! For boarding, we have baby gates to separate animals for their own time, etc, when necessary. Our enclosed bricked in yard is perfect for any dog that wants to fun around and play fetch with our girl Ivey. He husband loves fur babies just as much as I do.
“Natalie was great! I brought my dog for daycare multiple days per week for 4 weeks and she was well cared for. Natalie was responsive and very kind. I will book her again if I need doggie daycare again.”

“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: Hey there my name is Danielle, I have taken care of dogs of all ages ranging from puppies going through their first heat to senior dogs with lack of abilities. Growing up I had all sorts of pets in my home and enjoyed sitting and dog walking in my neighborhood. Also one of my first jobs was at a dog boarding and day care facility. I love all breeds of dogs and cats and just want to keep them happy and healthy and have a fun time. I am available on the weekends and I love the outdoors so any chance to get some sunshine is my favorite. Meeting new people and pets is something I always look forward to. I have a fenced backyard, and my dog is friendly. I do not leave dogs unattended outside because I want to be sure they won't try to escape the yard or dig holes. When in a client's home I am sure to read all instructions given prior to my drop in. I make sure that the their pet is given my full attention during my time there. If I have any questions I am not afraid to ask. I will also send updates and photos if requested.
About: I have worked at a doggy daycare for the past year and a half in my hometown Aiken where I feed, water and give any special needs to dogs and cats. I also have experience pet sitting at peoples homes. I’m currently a full-time student at the University of South Carolina as a biology major.

I am available most weekends and most week weekday evenings for any services and I am able to housesit with pets including stay the night at your home. I will feed your dogs and play with your dogs. Take them for walks or any special medicines your pet may have I will be able to give. if there is any special request, I would be happy to talk to you about it.
About: I have taken care of many animals on my life time…from cats and dogs to a gecko and bunny! And I loved it all! Animals are family members and they will be given the best treatment while you’re away on a trip, out for the night, or at work! Missing pets while you’re away is tough, so many photos will be sent your way if you’d like! I’d love to pet sit, dog walk, let out your animals, etc! They deserve the best care! I am available Fridays and Saturdays, Sunday afternoons, and Monday-Thursday after 5:30 pm! Just message me and I will get back to you asap on availability! I understand things come up and you may need help quick! I treat all pets with the most care. They are amazing, kind, and funny! I have two cats at home and they are my babies!
“Lily was remarkable. She was always on time. Report cards were always filled out, pictures provided. She always worked with me to change things up on how to give the dogs their walks, etc., with very little notice, which was greatly appreciated. I would recommend her to anyone and we will definitely be a repeat customer.”
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.

About: I've raised and trained dogs most of my life from puppy care to seniors, as well as animals with medical issues. I was a breeder of Gordon Setters for many years. I love the company of dogs and getting to know their personalities. I especially love seniors, as I wish for them to know they are loved in their twilight years. I work part time from home and have a flexible schedule which allows me to work around my pet client needs. Most times I am available last minute as well. I ask for detailed information with any special needs. I spend time interacting, playing talking, petting, and love curling up on the couch with mu client's pets.
About: My name is Alexandria, and I’ve had a passion for animals since childhood. I grew up helping on a farm until I was 12 and began working for a dog groomer at 14 which i stopped around 16, gaining valuable experience in animal care. I currently have two German Shepherds and three cats, and I’ve always been the go-to sitter for family and neighbors. Whether it's walking, feeding, or providing special care for senior pets or puppies, I bring love and dedication to every pet I care for. I am currently in college at USCA and I have plenty of flexibility to care for your pets. Whether it's daily walks or playtime, I can easily accommodate any pup or kitty into my routine. My schedule allows me to give them the attention and care they deserve, ensuring peace of mind for you while you’re away. While I don’t have a fenced yard due to Hurricane Helene, I’m happy to walk your pet using your preferred method. If your pet has access to a fenced yard, I’ll keep a watchful eye to ensure they’re happy and safe while they run around. I prioritize their well-being, making sure they get the exercise, play, and attention they need, whether it's on a walk or in the yard.
About: I grew up with all sorts of animals- dogs, cats, bunnies, fish - pretty much everything! ☺️ After college I adopted my first pup- Harley, a miniature pinscher. He was my baby!! Over the years, my husband and I rescued 3 more min pins: Rudy, Gatsby and Lulu. They were the most fantastic little kiddos and our whole life for many years! Unfortunately we just lost our youngest, Lulu. This was the last of our pups to go over the past 6 years. It’s been really difficult saying goodbye to all of them and we need to take a break before we bring a new pup home. However, we are huge pet people and we really miss having a 4 legged friend around. So, we’d love to be able to love and care for your fur baby while you’re away!! I work from home so will be able to spend a ton of time with your baby. We have a good size fenced in yard and we love taking walks. So there will be plenty of outside time. I do have 2 little girls- 7 and 3 years old. They have lots of experience with dogs and absolutely love them! So as long as your dog is good with kiddos we are great 😊 I work from home so have plenty of availability throughout the day. I have 2 young kiddos that are in daycare/elementary school. So other than dinner/bedtime and a few evening activities we’re around. We have a good size backyard with 8 ft fence. We can crate your fur baby if needed or we have baby/dog gates and could leave him/her in a larger space if preferred if we’re gone. During the day, your pup can hang in my office while I work if they prefer ☺️
About: I’ve grown up around Animals my whole life and currently have a mini farm. I’m experienced with almost every type of animals including bunnies, reptiles, cats, dogs, fish, birds, and live stock and have been house sitting since I was 13. I am a huge advocate for animal assisted therapy and am currently attending college to get my degree in order to bring animals into my work as a psychologist. I’ve taken care of plenty of animal emergencies and even revived dying chickens. I’m not scared of getting dirty or anything else that comes with with taking care of your animals. I also enjoy sending picture updates whenever I can so the owners know what is going on with their pet. I would love to come watch your fur babies for you! I am currently in school three days a week and for only a few hours on those days, the rest of my time is free. I prefer to follow a daily check list of general tasks, then I play with them and their favorite toys or just give them company depending on your pets needs.
About: I have experience with cats and dogs of many different kinds! I have taken care of both geriatric & adolescent aged animals. As well as having experience with animals who have special needs like blindness, deafness, and giving medication. I hope to meet your babies soon! I'm currently in graduate school to become a speech language pathologist and I’m wanting to supplement my income with some sitting/walking/dropping in jobs before and after school during the week and on the weekends. I will not be able to provide sitting services for any pets inside of my home as I already have multiple animals like cats, dogs, chickens, and fish at my home.
About: Taking care of dogs is second nature to me. I am a dog loving household and am always itching to find another 4-legged-frito-smelling doggo to love on. I have 2 dogs, a schnauzer mix and a labradoodle. They are couch potatoes, so anybody would fit in here. I have worked with dogs basically my whole life and have dog sat for countless friends and families. I am a certified pharmacy technician and am able to care for your senior dog with medical needs. I would be best fit for families who wanted to go on weekend trips and leave their doggos to someone they trust! I can also offer services through the week if need be. I am an early riser and let our dogs have as much outside time as they want until I leave if I have to. I have a fenced in yard, as well as a larger front yard for running and playing. I have baby gates to separate if needed for feeding time or at night for sleeping arrangements.
About: I'm Emily and I may or may or not be the worlds biggest animal lover! I grew up on a ranch in Texas and here in South Carolina working with and taking care of all types of animals, from bunnies to pheasants, pigs to horses. If it has legs and a cute furry face I have probably bottle fed it and raised it! I have fond memories of bottle feeding a pack rat in my teens and no my parents were not pleased =) I once bottle fed a litter of 5 kittens from birth, they all thrived and it was an amazing experience. I completed 7 years in the US Navy and for the past few years I have been mom Emily to my 3 boys. You CAN trust your house and pets with me. I currently have a flexible schedule! We can find a solution to your needs. My 3 cats are grumpy and persnickety, trust me, they wont miss me=) I am not currently watching any dogs or cats in my home, aforementioned 3 cats would be displeased BUT I can provide excellent care in clients homes.
About: I treat every dog as if they were my own. My goal is to provide more than just pet sitting, and I create a loving, comfortable environment where dogs feel safe, happy, and cared for until their family returns. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I truly enjoy spending time with animals. I make time each day for walks, playtime, feeding, and giving pets the attention and affection they need. Caring for animals is something I look forward to, and I enjoy creating a safe, loving environment where pets feel comfortable and happy while their owners are away. Whether I am caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and receive lots of attention and affection. I also keep their environment clean and safe, follow any special instructions from the owner, and provide regular updates so owners can feel confident their pets are being well cared for.
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover, currently with 3 dogs ranging from 4 lbs to 65 lbs, 4 goofy cats, and enough fish tanks to rival a small aquarium in my home. When I left the US Army in 2012, I started working with animal rescue organizations and it became a passion of mine. I will provide intensive home care to geriatric dogs with complex health needs, including cancer, seizures, tracheomalacia, and diabetes. I have experience with puppy training and caring for adult dogs of all sizes. I have also cared for cats, lizards, turtles, horses, and a variety of fish! Whatever your pet care needs are, I’m certain I can take good care of your furry family. I work full time Monday through Wednesday, and am available for pet care Thursday through Sunday with flexible hours including early mornings to late evening. I prefer to meet your pets before the first appointment, so that I can see their environment and be familiar with their daily routine in order to best care for them.
About: Hi there! I’m Bella, a 23-year-old college student attending Full Sail University remotely from Aiken, SC. I share my cozy home with my partner Luke, our four dogs. Animals have been a big part of my life ever since I was a little girl, and I truly believe that every pet deserves to feel loved, happy, and safe. Whether it’s cuddling on the couch, going for a walk, or just spending some quality time together, I make it my number one priority to ensure your furry friend feels comfortable and cared for. I know how important it is to find a sitter you can trust, and I promise to treat your pets like part of my own family. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your pet and give them the attention they deserve while you’re away. Let’s chat and see how I can help make your time apart from your beloved companion a little bit easier! I currently work from home as a freelancer, so I’ll have plenty of flexibility to take care of your furry friends with enough notice in advance. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. I start by getting to know the pet’s routine, preferences, and any specific needs, so I can ensure they feel right at home. I respect the owner’s space and follow any specific instructions provided, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, and medication administration. I always make sure the pet feels comfortable and maintain open communication with the owner, providing updates and photos to give peace of mind. My top priority is ensuring your pet is happy, healthy, and loved while you’re away!

“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 !!”
“Sarah and Hagan provided a great place for my Weimaraner to stay over a long weekend. They have an air conditioned kennel with large fenced in area perfect for any size dog to be comfortable! Our 11 month old pup has a lot of energy and can get anxious when left alone but seemed to have a great time and was checked on regularly. They are very educated on handling dogs. We received plenty of pictures and videos during our dog’s stay. Would highly recommend Sarah and Hagan!”
“Emilee is a great dog sitter! Maisie had an issue one night and Emilee was communicative and caring, and I felt confident in how she handled the situation. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave Maisie with her again. Thank you Emilee for treating Maisie like your own.”
“Samantha did a fantastic job with our two dogs. We got frequent updates with so many pictures and the dog had a lot of fun. If we have to leave our dogs, we'll leave them with her!”
“Nicole was very patient with this nervous dog momma! She made sure Diesel was comfortable while introducing him to other dogs! Thanks to her, he made new friends! I'll definitely use her again for boarding or even walks! Diesel loved her, too!”
“Ms. Alexis was absolutely amazing watching Biscuit! She was so accommodating and helpful as we had a sudden funeral to attend. Biscuit was extremely well taken care of and if you need someone who will truly love and take care of your pet, I 100% recommend using Ms. Alexis”
“We had a great experience! Daisy was well taken care of, Whittney was great communicating while we were away, and our fur baby was excited to stay! Thank you again and we can’t wait to bring her back.”
“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.”
“omg, Mel is amazing! My mom and I always heard bad things about Rover, but we had a family emergency during Master's week (everywhere was booked!) and we decided to try our luck on Rover and found Mel, we instantly fell in love (as well as our two dogs)! Mel is amazing with communication, keeping your pets happy, and Grey is an amazing playmate! We will be booking again either for trips or whenever we need a break from our dogs. I highly recommend Mel <3”
“Jessie is the most amazing sitter she is so attentive to your pet. She pays close attention to his eating and bathroom. She does everything possible to comfort him and pet him. Her care is beyond and above any I have ever heard about. She even made him treats and special food. Amazing!”
“Terry has all but adopted my babies. They love her as much as she loves them!! As soon as they walk in her door they leave me and are checking everything out. Terry is the best!!”
“Charles did an amazing job taking care of Kenji. From daily updates and photos to ensuring Kenji had walks and playtime. Kenji got along well with Knox, who is a Dalmatian as well. Kenji was happy when I returned, and it was a huge relief to know he was in such good hands. Highly recommend Charles for anyone needing a dependable and caring dog sitter!”
“Harley’s experience was wonderful. She enjoyed playing with their family dogs and cooling off in their kiddie pool. We enjoyed seeing pictures and videos of her having a great time during her visit. Our experience was also wonderful. They were very flexible for us with drop off and pick up when our plans changed. They even let us know when she ran out of food and offered to pick her up some for us. They went above and beyond and took great care of our Harley girl. Very grateful, would 100% recommend and will use them for future trips. Would give them more stars if I could!”
“Payton took great care of our baby while we were out of town. She was very communicative and sent us lots of updates with pictures. We felt at ease that our pup was being cared for well.”
“This was our first time using Rover and Emily made the process really easy! Our dog Lola had so much fun. Emily sent pictures and updates and took such good care of our girl!”
“Steve took care of our goldendoodle, Sully, for four days, and we truly could not have asked for a better experience. From the start, he was professional, attentive, and genuinely caring. The biggest comfort for me was knowing Sully wasn’t cooped up in a kennel while we were away — he was in a loving, attentive environment where he was treated like family. Steve clearly takes pride in what he does, and it shows in the way he cares for the dogs entrusted to him. My heart was completely at ease the entire time, which says everything. Sully came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. From here on out, Steve will absolutely be our go-to pet sitter. We are so grateful for the exceptional care he provided. Highly recommend!”
“Joshua was awesome! He sent daily updates and you could tell our dogs loved being there. The location was super convenient, couldn’t ask for a better place to board our dogs. Would 100% use again.”
