“Amber is so caring and attentive to our 3 elderly dogs. We went out of town for 4 days and she sent us frequent pictures and updates. 5/5 or if I could giver her a 10/10!! We’ll definitely be booking her again!”


“Maria was a godsend. She watched our two young dogs during the day for us during our vacation to the mountains while we left for the day for the Palmetto Bowl. Maria was very responsive, helpful, and friendly. She came over the day before to meet our dogs and sent updates throughout the day. They loved her! We would definitely recommend Maria for any of your pet needs.”


“Big thanks to grey for taking care of my puppy when I needed help last minute. He’s only 9 weeks old so he needs constant attention, it’s no easy task! I am super appreciative & I know my little pup is too!”


About: I’ve had several dogs of my own and lived with others: lab/pit mix, pits, two German Shepherds, a Great Dane, a friendly chihuahua, and an evil chihuahua. I’ve rescued dogs off the street, and am all around good with animals. I have a job that gives me a lot of flexibility in my schedule. I do travel from time to time, which is why I don’t have a pup of my own. I can be whatever your dog needs. If he’s old, we can relax together; full of energy? We can throw sticks around and run. Small and skittish? Food is a great incentivizer to build trust. I’m looking to make some extra cash and enjoy the company of your pets. I will make sure your dog is happy, fed, played with, and comfortable. I only take on one client at a time, so owners do not have to worry about their pets interacting with another owner's pets. Your loved ones will have my undivided attention.

About: I am need of full time employment and have been pet sitting for friends and family for over ten years now. I absolutely love dogs and spending time with them because their love is unconditional. I grew up helping take care of my family's dog for about fourteen years and then helped raise a puppy who is turning ten in October. I enjoy being around dogs and playing with them so I feel like this is going to be the right gig for me. I am very positive and outgoing and love spending time outside. I'm currently unemployed and hoping to pick up as many gigs as I can to get a new routine started as I settled in a new location. I adjust based on the animal's needs. Some dogs I've watched have been incredibly more active and needing of attention than others, as well as cats. It's all about hearing what the owner needs for their pets while they're away to ease any anxiety they have of leaving them.

“It’s hard to find someone you can trust to not only take care of your pets, but to also stay in your home. We just went away for three nights as sort of a trial run before taking a longer trip and we couldn’t be happier that we met Chris! Everything went really well and Chris gave us updates every day with photos (and videos 😊). We came home to happy animals and a clean home. We’re looking forward to taking a longer trip now and leaving with peace of mind!”

About: I have been dogsitting and housesitting since I was in college. If you need me, I'll be there! I have taken care of big dogs, little dogs, puppies, and senior dogs! Every dog is a good dog and deserves the best care possible. I can't wait to meet you pup(s)!! (Tell your dog I said hi!) I have a very flexible schedule!

“Meredith did an amazing job of caring for our animals while we were out of town. We greatly appreciated her willingness to stay in our home to care for our crew. Meredith is an excellent communicator and provided consistent updates and photos while we were away. We will definitely be using her again in the future!!”


About: What sets me apart is my deep experience and intuitive understanding of animal behavior built over 12+ years of caring for pets. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages and temperaments, from playful puppies to senior pets with special needs. I’ve administered medications, handled dietary restrictions, and adapted care to suit anxious or shy animals. I take the time to bond with each pet so they feel safe, seen, and loved. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and I always prioritize communication so you can feel confident while you’re away. I’m currently working full-time Monday through Friday. Fridays I am available beginning 12:30pm and completely open on Saturdays and Sundays. Feel free to contact me if a different time is needed! At my home, pets have access to a secure yard for supervised outdoor time and a cozy indoor space to relax. I live in a quiet neighborhood with plenty of walking paths for daily walks and fresh air. I also have a small dog who will definitely keep your pup some company. Whether it’s daycare, overnight stays, or boarding, I maintain a clean, calm environment with structured routines, lots of play, and individualized attention based on your pet’s needs.

About: As a pet owner for over 25 years, I know how valuable it is to have a reliable person caring for your animals when you're away. I was recently laid off and would like to have a job working with animals instead of people ( at least for now). I took care of animals and house sat in my twenties and have plenty of experience with dogs and cats. I am currently unemployed, so I'm available anytime. My daughters both have plans for the summer, so I am very flexible on when I can work. Since I have my own animals, I prefer to care for animals in their own home. This is where they feel the safest and have less anxiety while their owner is away.

“My booking with Kylie was great! We worked out a time for her to come meet me and my dogs before her scheduled house/dog sitting appointment and the dogs loved her right away. She was very responsive while I was out of town, even sending pictures of the dogs lounging on the couch and loveseat. I arrived home early and she prompted modified the booking to reflect that so Rover would change the amount due. Very pleasant woman and I will absolutely be using her again!”


“Jennifer was fantastic! She stayed overnight with my anxious pup while we were gone and made us feel completely at ease. Her thoughtful care and updates reassured me that my pup was in great hands. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog.”


“Chloe was so great. She put our mind at ease while we were gone for the weekend. She followed our instructions perfectly and our house was exactly as we left it. Our dog was well taken care of. We will be booking her again in the future.”


About: I am currently a coveted, 5-star petsitter and housesitter through TrustedHouseSitters with 22 sits completed (and counting!) in just 7 months on the site. For over 6 years, I have been caring for pets and homes of colleagues, friends, and family. Throughout my journeys, I have made sweet and affirming connections with numerous dogs, cats, guinea pigs, rabbits, fish, and the occasional bird, pig, chinchilla, and chicken. My petsitting responsibilities have included refilling and cleaning food and water bowls, scooping litter multiple times a day, taking dogs out for walks, engaging in nourishingly active play, and — of course — supplying snuggles, scratches, and belly rubs galore! I also have experience administering medication & shots to dogs, puppies, cats, and kittens, and have cared for senior dogs and cats as well. I have 6 years of experience housesitting. My housesitting responsibilities have included wiping down the counters, sweeping, vacuuming, washing dishes, cleaning the stove and burners, and disposing of trash/compost/recycling. My first priority is always the pets and homes I care for. I arrange my schedule according to your pets and homes in order to honor each of their specific needs at any given time, as I have a very flexible, part-time, remote job. I'm also a big homebody and am always delighted to curl up with your pets while reading, writing, or enjoying a nice cup of tea! I am a strong communicator who asks detailed questions to ensure that your pets and homes receive the care that they need.

Kalie P.
“We were away for 10 days when our original in-home sitter had to cancel last minute, and Kalie was a total lifesaver. She stepped in quickly and took amazing care of our two pitties and our sweet kitty. One of our dogs needs a weekly injection for allergies, and Kalie handled it confidently and with no fuss. When our other pup wasn’t acting right, she checked in with us and then took him to the emergency vet without hesitation. We were so grateful she was paying such close attention. She kept us updated throughout the trip, and during our FaceTime check-ins, it was clear our crew was calm, happy, and totally comfortable with her. It gave us so much peace of mind to know they were in such capable and caring hands. As an added bonus, Kalie left our house cleaner than when she arrived, which was a wonderful surprise after a long day of travel. She truly loves animals, and it shows in everything she does. We appreciate her more than we can say and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, and dependable pet sitter.”

During each visit, Kevin was trustworthy, self-sufficient, reliably followed our instructions/preferences, and was able to give our dog some extra TLC multiple times per day.
