“This was the first time we used Rover and Chelsea. Chelsea went above and beyond to take care of our Rosy. She was punctual, kept communication open and sent pics along the way. We have another trip in June and have Chelsea lined up to stay again. I would recommend her to anyone looking for an in house sitter.”

About: I provide thoughtful, dependable care for pets, for all ages, and temperaments I’ve cared for dogs and cats, through pet sitting, feeding routines, walks, and overnight stays, and I’m comfortable managing multiple pets at once. I prioritize consistency, safety, and clear communication, and I’m attentive to each animals unique needs, whether it’s high energy playtime, structured routines, or a calm, reassuring presence. I’m also mindful of maintaining owners routines and preferences so pets feel secure and at home. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine, and I build my schedule with flexibility to prioritize the animals I’m caring for. I’m available for morning, midday, and evening visits, as well as overnight stays when needed. I’m intentional about not over booking, so each pet receives consistent attention, timely walks, and unhurried care. Whether it’s maintaining a regular feeding schedule or incorporating longer walks and playtime, I make sure pets are integrated into my routine, not treated as an afterthought. I approach pet care with a strong focus on safety, trust, and respect for each pet pets environment in a clients home, I carefully follow all instructions to maintain the pets, normal routine, including feeding, exercise, and any specific preferences or boundaries. I am attentive to details like secure leashing, monitoring behavior, and keeping spaces clean and hazard free. I take time to build trust with each animal, moving at their pace and being mindful of their temperament and comfort level. Clear communication is also a priority, I provide regular updates to owners feel confident and informed while they’re away.

“Outstanding Profile and very petite friendly, very happy, recommend highly.”

“Charlotte was marvelous with our little Henry and Ron. With her daily photos and regular updates we felt so comfortable leaving them with her. Her attention to detail and encouraging messages were especially appreciated”

About: I grew up with an Irish wolfhound so I know how to handle big breeds. I cared for a boxer for many years as well. Ive helped with my sister’s full sized doodle mix when they have been traveling. Im an avid walker and can go long distances. Look forward to hearing from you! Im making my own schedule so I have a lot flexibility. Looking for a consistent routine and pets to care for on a regular basis but also open to here and there as well. Lead with love, patience & kindness. Lots of playing and engagement and getting energy out paired with cuddle time and rest depending on their wants and needs.

About: I am a student at CofC who is home for the summer and would love to spend as much time with pups before heading back to school. I have been pet sitting for five years, gaining experience with many different breeds and have learned to love every kind of pup! I offer potty breaks, dog walking, and overnight stays! I am currently available at all hours as I am home for summer break. I can be flexible to work around your pets typical hours and spend as much time with them as requested. I will keep your animals on their regular scheduled routine, providing them with their typical daily care and exercise routines! I can monitor your animals as frequently as you would like and have clear communication with you!

“Gabriela did a wonderful job caring for our two dogs and one cat over a long weekend. She tended to each of their unique needs and provided frequent updates throughout the weekend. We felt secure knowing that Gabriela was caring for our pets and our home while we were away. And, our home was very clean when we returned. She did a fantastic job caring for our gang!”

About: I have experience with several breeds of dogs. I currently own a rottweiler (my second!) so no dog is too big or too small! I am a homemaker so I am very flexible! I have been an island resident for 20 years and a dog owner all my life! I am a homemaker and self employed. If needed, I do most of my work for my husband in the mornings. My afternoons are very flexible! I will follow the instructions you provide. I know most clients are peculiar about where their leashes are stored, whether their pup gets a treat before/after their walk, etc.

About: Dear families: We like to embrace the initial dog vacay/rover purpose: to have your TINY furry baby go to a family home to feel loved while away from home! This is a family home, not a boarding place, so our spaces are very limited. Since we take SMALL BREEDS ONLY we are experts on their personality trends (nervousness, separation anxiety, fears, etc), and understand their needs at different stages in life: puppies, senior dogs, disabled dogs. we ONLY accept dogs under 15 pounds, no exemption, and I never have more than three, or four tiny visitors at a time to maximize care and one-on-one time. We make sure our guests have a peaceful and restful time, if their health or age demands it. Or simply said, you may not want your precious 4 pounds furry baby being squeezed by a 70 pounds massive visitor while playing outside! I work from home, so there will always be some one at home to love on your precious babies. ——— I have had dogs my entire life. I grew up with a Saint Bernard, a cocker spaniel, a mini-poodle, a beautiful bunny (she always thought she was a dog, and we never told her the truth! she would come running to the door to greet you, she responded to her name and slept on our beds). I also had cats and birds. All at the same time! Nowadays, I'm happily married, and have two very responsible teenage boys, who also happen to love animals! My husband is an excellent trainer (by nature though, not as a career), and an incredible Alfa male. We have two lovely shitzu family members, Snickers and Lucy. Our puppies are loving, well behaved, house broken, and very playful. We specialize in puppies' care (under a year old), and at any age prefer non-agresive and well behaved dogs. We live in a beautiful large house, with a fenced in yard and many separate areas. Our guests will get plenty of love, exercise, sun, space and fun. We sleep with our puppies in our bedrooms so we are eager to accommodate our guests as part of our family. We do not crate our dogs neither yours, unless requested by you. We take daily pictures and send reports about our guests. Most of our guests are repeated, and very much loved! Rover has helped us create an extended family among all of us, pet lovers, it’s amazing! Before our seven years registered with dog vacay/rover we have cared for our friends' and neighbors' dogs for many years. We also provide oral medication, or special treatments when needed. We can Skype or FaceTime with you to give you peace of mind during your time away. IMPORTANT NOTE: I have severe back problems because of a car accident, so please don’t lie about your baby’s weight on the request; if he or she is over 15 pounds, I will have to reject the service at drop off, without a refund. Thank you for your understanding. General regulations: All animals must be current on all shots, free of any contagious diseases, on flea/tick prevention and we don't host intact adult dogs. I work at home and enjoy my guests' company. I usually start my day by 7am or earlier when needed and set to work by 8am. We will hang out around the house, and play outdoors as each guest requires. Usually I take breaks from the computer each hour and I get my babies outside to play for a few minutes. I have a fenced in yard and I never let the dogs outside alone without supervision. My home is very calm and safe and puppies as well as older dogs can rest or play as much as they need. I have several spaces around the house to enjoy restful sunny mornings or afternoons. Or to simply chill under the blankets to watch a movie together in the afternoon. We prefer calm, friendly, trained dogs. I don’t accept aggressive dogs at any time.

“Morganne did a wonderful job with our girl! She communicated well, sent photos/kept us updated and was flexible with times. Thanks so much, we really appreciate you!”

“Kylee was so incredible!!! She watched 4 dogs for a whole week and took such good care of them. She was super responsive and gave me updates! It also was super rainy the last few days and with 4 dogs and our yard is super muddy/ floors not good with mud and dog fur, we fully expected to walk into a filthy house but to our surprise the house was spotless. She went above and beyond to make the house look amazing even in the rain! We really appreciate it and will be absolutely be using her again in the future for any needs we have!”

About: I’ve been caring for pets for as long as I can remember, growing up in a home that always had animals. Since I was 18, I’ve fostered both puppies and senior pets, so I’m very comfortable with a wide range of needs—from high-energy animals who need structure and engagement, to older pets who require a gentler, more patient approach. In college, I became known as the go-to pet sitter in my apartment community, regularly helping neighbors with walking, drop-ins, and overnight care. Now, I continue to stay involved by assisting with a local pet sitting company here on the island. What sets me apart is my experience, reliability, and genuine love for animals. I understand that every pet is different, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for like they’re my own. I work full-time as a Teacher of the Visually Impaired (TVI) and Orientation & Mobility Specialist (O&M), which means I’m dependable, attentive, and used to caring for others. I’m available before and after work, as well as weekends, and I’m committed to providing consistent, high-quality care. I work full-time Monday through Friday, leaving by 6:00 a.m. and returning around 4:00 p.m and sometimes earlier. I am available before and after work for drop-ins, walks, or check-ins. I’m home all day on weekends, which allows me to provide full-day care, overnight stays, or extended visits. I provide pet care exclusively in your home, so your pets stay safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I do not accept pets in my home, as I have two dogs who aren’t comfortable with other animals. I follow your instructions carefully for feeding, medications, exercise, and routines, and I make sure pets are safe and well cared for while enjoying attention, play, and a calm environment. My goal is to create a stress-free experience so your pets feel loved and secure while you’re away.

“Jessica was outstanding! She took great care of our senior lab, who fell absolutely in love with her. I could tell from the pictures our dog felt very comfortable with the pet sitter. Jessica is a very pleasant young lady who takes her pet sitting job seriously. She always made sure to give her daily medication according to schedule, spent plenty of time with our dog and even allowed her to sleep on the bed with her. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire Jessica again!”

My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality and preferences, whether they enjoy lots of attention and activity or prefer a calmer, quieter approach.

You’ll receive regular updates and photos throughout my visits or stay, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are happy and well cared for. 🐾💕

About: I have trained dogs since a young age with my father. I typically handle Rottweilers and German Shepards, but have so much love for small dogs and cats as well. I have 3 cats of my own and would love to have a weenie one day ❤️ I am disabled so I am usually at my apartment with my 3 cats. My husband works mostly remote for his own business so I am able to be away for most of the day or night without disrupting our girls needs. I care for all pets as if they were my own. I am very mindful of special needs and want to make sure every animal feels loved and safe while their owner is away, especially since I have owned animals with bad separation anxiety. I am more than willing to take your animal to their favorite park or play with their favorite toy to help comfort them.

About: Iv always had a love for animals my whole life. I love making animals feel safe and loved. I lived around a pitbull for 2 years and she was the sweetest baby ever. Playtime, cuddles and attention is super important when taking care of these babies. I am currently working full time and my schedule can vary but I try to be super flexible. I can spend nights and work weekends if needed. I would care for my clients pets in my clients home depending on their rules and the space that is provided. I don’t offer care in my personal home.

“Just had Kitty stay with our two dogs for a few days. First time for us having someone come to the home and it could not have gone smoother. She was there all the times she said she would be & provided pictures and great communication. She went over and above in her care for them. We came home to a spotless house and two very happy dogs. I will definitely use Kitty again.”

Karen H.

“Sarah Natalie was great with our cat. She gave us updates and we were absolutely sure that Bunny was getting lots of attention while we were out of town.”

Margot H.

“Katherine did a great job with Happy! She played a lot with him in the yard and helped get him through some thunderstorms, which cause a lot of anxiety for our pup. She stayed in our home and we were grateful she was able to help out. Would highly recommend her again!”
