“Lauren was so kind and so welcoming to my parents dog. My parents thought the world of her, and she handled our crazy girl so well! Very thankful for her time and flexibility also!”


About: I’ve dealt with all sorts of animals from tiny chihuahuas to Great Danes. I have volunteered at shelters and exotic rescues in the past. I’m used to high maintence and balancing very different pet personalities to make sure the home stay stable and comforting. I am an incoming college freshman. So for now almost all day everyday is free but even when school starts most of my evenings and mornings will still be available! I prioritize creating a safe environment for all pets in my care. Their home is their safe space I will stick to your dogs schedule as best as possible. I will treat your pet and your home with the upmost integrity and send updates via photos, text, or call as often as you need/want.

About: I've taken care of and trained dogs since my teenage years. From small dogs to extra large dogs and everything in-between. I crate train my dogs. I'm currently un-employed. For the past year and a half I took care of my husband who lost his battle with cancer this past January. I also help care for my grandmother and her estate and my son. My schedule is extremely open and flexible due to this. I follow directions very well. How you want your baby taken care of is how I will care for your baby. I have a large, unfenced yard.


About: I worked at Foothills Veterinary Hospital as a technician for 8 years. The practice is owned by Dr.Randall. While working at FVH I worked in the boarding kennels, reception, and as a technician. There are a few clients I have house-sat for over the past couple years. I graduated from Clemson in 2017 with my BS in animal veterinary science-prevet. I went back to school for my masters and graduated from Clemson in 2018 with my MS in applied health research. After graduation I was promoted as a reproduction technician specialist. I have shown/bred AKC dogs as a hobby for close to 12 years. I currently am a registered nurse and have two loving children and 4 show dogs. I am willing to be flexible with arrangements, just let me know! I currently am working 3 days a week and have 4 days off while my kids are at school. I’m looking to fulfill my time with animals— what I enjoy most. I am able to care for client animals like they’re my own. Whether this be playing fetch, having treats/cookies or even sitting on the couch lounging. I am all about trying to keep the pets happy with their normal routine.

“Shannon was able to meet me on short notice to walk my dogs the same week. She was professional, a great communicator, and my dogs loved her. I would certainly recommend her services.”


About: My first job was dog sitting when I was 13. I’ve had a dog(s) my entire life. I worked as a dog trainer and master groomer for over 20 years but have since retired from both. Now I have the pleasure of serving the animal community as an adoption counselor matching lost/lonely pets with their new “fur”ever families. It’s my absolute joy to love on every dog I have the pleasure of sitting with. I am currently working only three days a week part time and am hoping to be able to end that job and do Rover full time. When in my home, I live in a small neighborhood in a home with a large fenced in yard. I have an 11 year old dog named Tallulah who is friendly to all dogs. While at my home, we can take walks in the neighborhood and at the local wooded park. I’ve described a typical doggy day of possible activities below.

“Bella was a wonderful, wonderful help while my mom was out of town for a family trip. She was so great with her dog, she was wonderful to communicate with, and we are so appreciative of her. She truly went above and beyond for our family.”


“Corinna is very patient with our pup while she’s getting to know her. Hopefully soon she will trust her enough to drop in while we are not home. So far we are very pleased with the service Corinna provides.”


About: I have taken very good care of dogs for quite some time now. I love animals so it's easy! Most pets fall in love with me and are easy for me to manage. I currently make my own schedule and work from home, so taking about of pets is no issue for me and I would love the opportunity. I have a fenced in backyard and a spoiled Yorkie of my own. He needs friends as he is an only dog child. My children want more pets, so I do believe this would bring joy to their lives as well.

“Caley is very sweet to my dog. She communicates well and is always on time. He’s a husky so he’s an a big dog and sometimes can be a little difficult to walk on a leash. She runs with him and plays with him and gives him treats. She’s even asked me if she could turn on our sprinkler that we use for our backyard on a hot day so he could play in the water. He had a blast. He’s always in such a good mood when she’s been there. He’s told me people that he doesn’t like and people that he does like. He’s always super happy when she’s been there. Ive I actually had her take care of my dogs and my cats for years before she joined the app. I will continue to use Caley.”


About: I have personally cared for pets since I was a child and had my own pets since I was 16. In adulthood I had my two boys Hickory and Hans (weenie dogs). I don’t have children and I am single so they were my kiddos. Unfortunately, They are no longer with me anymore as of 2022 and 2023. I now fill that huge void by taking care of your babies! I am all about cuddling and playing with doggos and making sure they feel like the only dog in the world and will receive only child treatment! 👑 I know how big of a deal it was for me to leave my boys for a trip when they couldn’t come along and I just want to give that peace of mind to other pet parents using my calming and confident nature to care for their furry kids! I am self-employed and work from home so I am hanging around your pets a LOT while they are with me! I do like to get up and go for morning walks and nighttime walks before bed. There is a community dog park in my neighborhood that I can take your pets to or I have a huge fenced in back yard for them to play in. They will be incorporated into my schedule like they were my own…car rides, nature walks, pup cups and outings are regular over here! I live by myself and do not have pets of my own anymore so my full attention will be devoted to loving on your baby. My home is small and I can accept multiple dogs but they are just as much welcome to lay on furniture and sleep in my bed if they want to cuddle! I miss my boys so much, I get to fill the void in my life loving on your babies for a while! Definitely treat them as my own kids! Very relaxed and comfortable atmosphere. We can be as active or as lazy as your pet likes to be. I do like going on hikes, to the mountains, car rides, playing in rivers/lakes and walks if your baby is up for it. We can also just hang out and watch movies and relax at home if that is what’s needed for that day.

About: I have taken care of all kinds of animals growing up (neighbor/family/friends) I have a lot of experience in handling dogs/cats, I also volunteer at the grooming center and worked at shelters before, i will take care of your dog/cat like it’s my own dog/cat and will give them tons of attentions I work from home during Monday-Friday and can easily go out and walk around with your dogs and play outside in fenced backyard, but some days I go out to community and do my work but my wife is stay-at-home mom and can take care of your dogs as well and someone is guaranteed to be home 24/7 We have a huge fenced backyard at our house as well as patio with shade covered, dogs can go outside or stay inside the house depending on owner. There will be water both outdoor and indoor as well. We all like to be outdoor most times and dogs will love go outside most of the day.

About: From the early days of walking my neighbor's husky, to petsitting the mailman's tabby, my love of caring for animals has only grown. It grew so much that I decided to earn my B.S in Animal Behavior from Canisius University in Buffalo, NY. There's just something about animals that makes me feel whole. Aside from my rigorous studies and internships, I also worked at a vet for 6 years as an assistant and nurse. I am currently a stay-at-home mamma to my two babies. I have two rescue dogs and cat, but I'm still missing the toe beans and fluffy paws of other pets. I strive to make sure each pet not only feels the same devotion their owner gives them, but also that each owner feels at ease when they need to leave their pet. I can administer medications, exercise your animals, care for pocket pets, you name it and I will make it happen! As a stay at home mom, I am home 24/7. I am able to pop by your home as needed if you are within my range throughout the day. Once my husband is done working at 4pm, I am able to do longer visits for your pets. Weekends are open for me so I can provide even more care for your animals if they need it! I am able to care for cats and small, caged critters in my own home. Your kitty will have their own quiet space to vegetate. I have two large crates they can sleep in, and have a safe space. In your home, I am always extremely diligent about double, triple checking locks and that there is nothing left out that your pet can get into. If I have a list, I will go down each task. I do not rush, and I make sure your pet feels the love.

About: There's nothing that I love more than getting to spend time with animals (of any kind). I recently received my Master of Science degree from Virginia Tech studying Animal Behavior and Welfare. I am currently at Clemson University working towards my doctorate in Animal and Veterinary Sciences. I'm very experienced when it comes to animal care and I would consider myself extremely organized and responsible. I am available during the weekdays and some weekends, and am flexible enough to work around your schedule. I hope that you will choose me to take care of your beloved part of the family, as if it were a part of mine! Pet care is a part of my daily routine, as I have a golden retriever and bernedoodle myself. I am an animal lover looking to spend time with your pet(s) in my free time! If your dog is friendly, I have a 4 year old Golden Retriever and a 1 year old bernedoodle who would love a playmate and can easily help wear out high energy dogs. Just let me know if you would like your dog to meet my Finley and Willie at any time!

About: Hey there, I’m Nicole, experienced pet lover and sitter of all kinds of furry (or scaly, or feathery) friends! I worked at a local animal shelter for two years, and volunteered there for 2 years before that, so I’ve logged quite a few hours around animals, then come home to my two very social cats. My husband and I are experienced foster “pawrents”; we’ve had 36!foster dogs (including heartworm positive, behavioral dogs, and a tripod dog!) and 4 cats since the spring of 2020. I grew up with 3 dogs of my own and have enjoyed life as a cat mom in the last few years. My style is your pets style! If they want to play, we’ll play, if they want to snuggle, I’m a professional pet lover! There are nice paved and natural trails in our area that we have enjoyed taking our fosters and dogs we have pet-sat for to. We do have a fenced in backyard for lots of safe play, or even just sitting in the sun! We currently have two cats and recently rehomed our chameleon, so I can care for a wider variety of your pets! We can and do keep the cats separate from your pets while they stay in our home if you prefer that. I have experience with small dogs, LARGE dogs, old dogs, lap dogs (and the ones that think they're lapdogs) and puppies! In their old age, my dogs needed medicated lotion and orally administered medication - I have experience administering both, as well as baths and dry and wet food and a mix of both. At present I’m a stay-at-home mom, though we love to be out and about! My schedule is flexible and usually pretty open to meet your needs! We have a fully fenced in backyard and I prefer to leash walk in familiar, populated areas (Nalley Brown Nature Preserve, the Doodle Trail, etc.)

About: I have been around animals since I was little. I have friends and family that I feed and walk and water while gone. I have done sitting for a year now and I love it. I am also a vet tech. I am very experienced and love what I do. Your animal will be in great hands and be loved like family. I am available morning and evenings throughout the week until 8pm I also 7am-7pm on the weekends! I do also offer drop ins for all holidays! I am currently not excepting in-home pet sitting, unfortunately. Hopefully soon I will be able to offer that as far as in-home pet sitting I will make sure that your pet is fed, (if needed)they we will go out to potty, and have playtime!! Also any medication that they made will be given. I make sure there are no messes and clean any that are found! For extra cold days and extra hot days, there will be extra cuddles inside and play as well as we can. I do offer baths and can give them at your home if your are interested in that! Just being able to get your pup out and active and give extra love is so important and I enjoy it so much! I know your pet will be so happy and wore out from playing.

“Emily is very patient with my cattle dog. Shadow is rather suspicious of new people, and Emily took the time to put him at ease and continue with working on his nervousness about new people and cars. I chose Emily because she has dog training experience and a smart dog like shadow who thinks he is working all the time needs the sort of attention she appears to calmly provide.”

(She has also done wonderful things for animals, which she rarely talks about because she is so humble.) I wish she still lived nearby so that she could care for my cat when I leave town. I highly recommend Panther to anyone needing animal care services!”
