“Nina is very reliable and has a true passion for animals. It’s a big plus that she is also a good communicator. We’ve has her walk our dog a few times and will continue to use her in the future :)”


“Hallie was great! She was on time and took my dog for a long walk. My dog is currently being trained on a leash and got a little out of control but Hallie handled it great!”


About: I have always had dogs in my house and I am currently raising my puppy Roy! I feel as though pets have more feelings than humans so I make sure to give them special attention! I am a full time student at Clemson University and work a part time job so when i’m away from those i always make sure to spend time playing with my dog and taking care of him. I love to be around and let him hangout with me anytime I can since he’s so sweet and funny! I always give pets as much attention as they will let me. I feel as though feedings schedules and daily walks and attention are necessary for animals. I also like to make sure they have clean food and water and plenty of it!

“Kerri was amazing! She really took her time and cared for my pup. Her updates were always so heartwarming to receive, knowing my pup was in good hands. Definitely would rebook in the future.”


About: I've taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. They have been a big part of my life. I always love getting to meet and play with new dogs! I have cared for and walked many family and friends dogs and now I want to expand my knowledge and experience!!! I have also been working at a animal shelter for 2 yrs so I have lots of experience with all types of dogs, big or small, rambunctious or scared. I love cats as well and have taken care of quite a few but I don't have a lot of experience with them. I am willing to sit with and care for pretty much any animal!!! I have also completed 2 different behavior classes through my shelter and I'm working on a third right now for dog playgroups. I'm currently only working 4 days so I have 3 days im available! I try my best to work with every schedule and I am willing to take off work for a day or two if needed but I have to have at least a 2 week notice. I do everything from potty breaks, feeding, medication, daily walks near or away from clients home (park walks), playtime alone or with other dogs, ECT.

“Emily was wonderful! I wish we had found her sooner. She was very responsive, communicative and timely. She was excellent with my dogs and made sure she knew all about them before their first walk. One of my dogs is fearful and Emily was very kind to her and went slowly with her. Within several minutes, they were good friends and my dog was seeking belly rubs from Emily. My other dog recently went through a major surgery and I really appreciate that Emily listened to her and turned around to head back home when she had enough. I highly recommend Emily and will be booking with her again. Thank you Emily!!”



“Amazing. Incredible. Caring. Mandy had a connection with my wild boys within minutes. I will never be able to replay her for her kindness. If you need someone who truly cares for your pets, is thorough. Is professional, and loves all animals, Mandy is the best!!”


“Abby was awesome. We got home for our mini vacation and Caesar was happy. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The rover cards & pictures I received eased my mind, and it easy for me to relax. Thank you, and I can’t wait to rebook. ??????”


About: I have three rescue dogs, including a senior dog and a puppy. I’m very used to caring for anxious dogs. For kitty owners, I’ve had family cats I cared for up until I was 16! I’m a recent college grad taking time at home with my parents & doggies while job searching! I currently work a retail job, and am unavailable on select days. However, I may still be able to do a check-in/walk depending on the time— so just ask! I can crate dogs as needed, follow any mealtime and medication procedures and will prioritize playtime with your animals! Each of my three pets are vastly different and each have their own schedules and procedures. Just let me know what works best for your pet!

About: Hello!! My name is Melondy, but I go by Mel. I currently help a friend of mine a couple days a week who runs a in home doggie daycare. I absolutely love it and all of our sweet animals we have. I have 4 dogs and a rabbit that I adore. I would love to help care for your fur babies if you need someone reliable, trustworthy and dependable. I have a good bit of experience with animals and take care of other people’s animals like my own. Please let me know if I can help with your animals needs. I am a photographer part time and also pet sit as well. I have a very flexible schedule and can help care for your pet when you are gone and make sure they are loved and taken care of very well. I have a big fenced in yard. They can not get out. I have a ton of doggie toys and a big house they can roam freely in and can crate if needed. I am available to come to your home if needed.

About: Hello, my name is Cameron. I am a Psychology major and criminal justice minor at Clemson University. I spent lots of time caring for pets around my neighborhood when I was younger and now have two babies of my own. I have two cats named Marley and McLovin. Around the age of 15, I began volunteering at the SPCA of Wake County and volunteering in multiple vet clinics. At these institutions I learned to properly clean up messes, play with dogs of all aggressions, and to keep food and water full. I will take your doggo on walks to get his/her energy out, provide food and water, and give your baby lots of love and affection. Keeping your loved one happy is my number one priority. I am currently a full-time college student. However, Ive still got lots of time on my hands and would be delighted to pop in three times a day or more to take care of all the necessities. I care for pets by making sure they constantly have water and are fed at the owner's preferred times. I will take your pets on the walks they deserve so they are kept enriched and happy. I will provide lots of pets and rubs to keep your furry friend's emotional needs met.

About: My husband, Max and I have both grown up with and cared for dogs for most of our lives. Max and I also have our own dog, Ziggy, whom we absolutely spoil and adore! We are both wildlife biologists and true animal lovers. Between my flexible schedule and Max’s work from home schedule, we can assure that your pet will be in the best possible care while you are away! In addition to caring for your dog(s), we can also provide care for scaly critters too as we have years of experience caring for snakes and lizards. I am a graduate student at Clemson and have a variable schedule, however Max works from home so we can assure that there will almost always be somebody around to keep an eye on your fur baby! With that said, we can accommodate frequent potty breaks and playtime outside as well as short walks in the evenings! Typically, on the weekends we like to go on hikes or longer walks so if your pup is up for it, we would be happy to bring them for some extra exercise. We want to make sure your dog is comfortable in our home, as being away from home can be overwhelming and scary for a dog! For this reason, we will only board dogs from the same household at one time- unless previously discussed with both clients. If your dog boards with us, there may be some overlap with doggy daycare guests, but we limit doggy daycare to dogs from two households or less. This allows us to provide the best care for your dog without trying to split up our attention between too many pups! We have a large, completely fenced in backyard and live on a quiet street. Our own dog, Ziggy is crate trained and sleeps in his crate and stays in his crate if we need to leave the house. We can provide an additional crate for your pet if need be. We can accommodate feeding separately and separate time out in the yard, however Ziggy plays great with others and would love a friend to run around with! That being said, we encourage arranging a meet up between our pups before you have yours come to stay to make sure everyone will gel!

About: hi im linsey! I am excited to be able to help care for your pets! They will be loved just as my own 🤍🐾 I have 5 years of experience working at an emergency animal hospital as a customer service representative and trained as a veterinary assistant. I have been providing pet care for several years through rover and for friends and family. My previous job was at a very busy dog daycare and boarding facility. Thank you for your consideration and good luck on your sitter search. I hope to meet you & your fur babies soon! I’m currently working part-time with pretty flexible hours. I’m usually always available on weekends and I have lots of availability during the week as well. I’m comfortable with cats and all sizes and breeds of dogs. Their comfort and safety is always my priority when caring for pets in your home.

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I could walk! Ten years ago, I purchased my first home and have fostered 100+ animals since then. I’ve fostered medically complex cats and dogs and am experienced with medicating difficult animals and easy ones. I would love to help care for your furry family members! I work from home so I am always home and able to do potty breaks, medications, feeding, and playtime! I also keep beds in my office so they can spend the day with me. My pets have their own private section of the house when I have someone boarding in our home. It gives everyone a safe space to play!

About: Hi!!! I’m a recent graduate who loves to walk and I think walking is oh so much better with a pup! I used to have the sweetest lab, but lost her in February. Would adore to love on a pup soon 🥰 My brother has a small pointer puppy! I watch her every once in a while!! I don’t have a job right now, but I will be moving in September to Charlotte for a job. Would love to fill my time over the summer and anderson looking after some sweet dogs!! I am most likely not interested in keeping a pet at my home, but I could be persuaded if it’s absolutely needed. I live on a farm and we have an outdoor kennel!!

“Graham has been awesome with my dog and has been so flexible and easy to work with. She does a wonderful job playing and walking Annie. She’s also great at staying in touch with me about how each walk goes with pictures!”

Linsey M.
“We have hired Ms. Linsey many times over the last couple of years to sit with our fur-babies while we are either vacationing or when we leave for business. Lizzie and Scruffy LOVE to see her come but then they know mommy and daddy will be leaving. No frowns with Linsey though! She plays catch, Frisbee, tug, all of their favorite games. Linsey is very well with scheduled feedings, bath time and all day snuggles (Scruffy's favorite). It so fun to see pictures and videos that she sends of them playing or napping while we are away for a weekend or week at a time. We highly recommend Linsey! Your fur-babies will thank you!”
