About: With years of professional dog walking and sitting experience, I’ve cared for all manner of canines. I can handle puppies as well as senior citizens and love spending time with them giving love and getting exercise. I work from home with a flexible schedule so am able to leave periodically throughout the day to care for pets. Please be aware prior to booking that my daughter (10 months old as of April 2025) comes with me on my walks and drop ins. She rides in a backpack carrier and does not come out of it, but only request a booking with me if you and your pet and comfortable with that. I have been entrusted with clients’ homes for years and am confident and able to abide by your requests and needs. I act with respect when allowed access to a client’s home and take care to honor their wishes regarding their animals and household.
“Wonderful sitter! Would highly recommend. She was personable, responsive, and took great care of my babies. She also took care of my plants on short notice. Will definitely rebook her again and would recommend for all of your dog sitting needs.”
“Chelsea is a wonderful pet sitter/dog walker. She is reliable, consistently communicative, and great with our dogs and cats. Unfortunately, she was taking care of our dogs during a very rainy week, but she did a great job drying them off and making sure they got out there (even if they didn’t want to go out!). I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to others!”
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for dogs and cats my entire life and have experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. In addition to dogs and cats, I’ve cared for rabbits, birds, and reptiles, including my bearded dragon, who I’ve owned and cared for for over 10 years. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and check in on their pets while they’re away. I understand that every pet has their own routine and needs, and I treat every animal with the same care, patience, and attention I give my own. I have also raised 3 children over the last 22 years. I’m currently available with a flexible schedule and can provide morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend care depending on your needs. Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I enjoy spending quality time with pets, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, medication administration, or simply keeping them company while you’re away. I’ll do my best to maintain your pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ve cared for dogs and cats my entire life and also have experience with rabbits, birds, and my bearded dragon of over 10 years. When caring for pets in your home, I follow all instructions carefully, respect your home as if it were my own, and provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I’m comfortable handling multiple pets, administering basic medications, and adapting to each pet’s unique personality and needs.
About: I have lots of experience with taking care of dogs and cats. I am comfortable taking care of dogs of all sizes. I have always had dogs in my house growing up, and I know the responsibilities it takes to care for an animal. I will treat your pet as if they are my own. I have taken care of many kinds of pets from puppies and cats to elderly dogs. I have been pet sitting since high school and know what is required for a happy pet. I am very detail oriented and will make sure your pet has all their needs met. This includes potty breaks, food, water, medications, play time, and quality time. I can take your dog for a walk, do a few drop in visits, or do an overnight depending on your pet’s needs or what you are comfortable with. I am currently a rising junior at CofC studying Biology. I will be home (Summerville, SC) for the summer and can take care of pets all throughout the day. During the school year (Downtown Charleston) I can do drop in’s or walks in the morning before my classes, and after my classes in the afternoon, evenings, or overnight. I have an elderly golden lab and a 3 year old Weimaraner. I help take care of them by spending lots of time with them, taking them on walks, providing medication, feeding them, fetching, and giving them lots of love and support. I am very familiar with energetic dogs, and I know that they need lots of attention.
“Wendy has been a great help to our household and great with our dog Bailey! She was willing to do a little meet and greet with her beforehand which was important for us! Bailey took to her right away and I know she loves her walks!”
“Jennifer walked Chloe for the first time and she was great as usual. Chloe seemed so happy after her walk and now she’s napping after they ran the whole time. Can’t thank Jennifer enough for being so great to Chloe and Olivia.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 13, when I got my first Siberian Husky. She had epilepsy, so I gave her daily medication and learned how to support her needs with love and care. Since then, dogs have been a part of my daily life. I love going on walks and playing with them. I also have a Maltese, so I’m experienced with both large and small breeds. Recently, My first dog passed away, and my other pup has been a bit lonely. We would truly welcome a new furry friend to share some fun and companionship. I’m a full time dog mom currently so I’m home most of the time, aside from caring for my own dogs and occasional outings, so I’m very flexible and available almost any day. I absolutely love dogs and would be happy to spend time with yours whenever you need help! I live in a two story home with a fully fenced yard, perfect for playtime and safety. I have two dogs, a Siberian Husky and a Maltese, both neutered and up to date on rabies vaccines. They’re very friendly and love meeting other dogs! If your pup prefers quiet time, I can easily separate them into different rooms. Please feel free to text me with details about your dog. I’d love to get to know them!

I am flexible and free on nights and weekends. pet care is a natural part of my everyday routine so i’ll make sure I’m available for whatever is needed from me. routine is important! i stick to consistent feedings, walks and cuddle time to help pets feel comfortable and secure. daily playtime and plenty of love!
About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my mother served on the board of a Jack Russell rescue — which meant at least three of them running around at any given time. My first dog as an adult was Molly, a border collie who never met a person she didn't like. Every dog I've cared for since has gotten that same love and attention. When it comes to housesitting, I treat every home like my own. I bring in the mail, water the plants, vary the lights, take out the trash, and send regular photos and updates so you can truly relax. You come home to exactly what you left — sometimes with a very happy pet (or two or three...) at the door. My availability is genuinely flexible — some weeks I'm fully available, others I'm part-time, so I always recommend checking my calendar for current openings. What stays consistent is my commitment: when I'm with your pet, I am fully present and fully focused. I work around your schedule, your pet's routine, and whatever your family needs. I provide care exclusively in your home — because that's where your pet is most comfortable, and comfort matters. I believe the safest pet is an attentive one, so I give every animal in my care my complete attention. Your home is treated with the same respect I'd give my own, and your pet's routine, quirks, and needs are taken seriously from day one. In rare emergency situations, I am able to bring your pet into my home for overnight care, so they are never left without a loving hand. You won't have to wonder if everything is okay — I'll make sure you know.
About: I’ve taken care of pets my whole life! I’ve had cats and dogs in my home since a very early age. I started pet sitting for neighbors and friends, and i’ve loved watching and playing with other dogs ever since! I currently do pet sitting full time, so my schedule is very flexible! I’m normally there with the pets most of the day that way they are fully comfortable, and are still following their schedule! I make sure to follow all the instructions, so the pet isn’t off of its schedule. I really try to spend the first few days getting close with the pets, that way they feel totally comfortable with me!
About: I have had dogs and many different animals my whole life. I have also worked as a pet technician in a dog daycare for a while so I have experience with small medium and large dogs. I have a lot of open availability and I make time for pets. I have a big heart for animals and this is what I love to do! I am currently not working, I am taking college classes online so I have a flexible schedule. I am very dependable and will make sure your dog has a good time during the whole visit. I am very overly cautious when it comes to watching dogs mainly because I have 2 of my own and make sure they don't eat anything they aren't supposed. I know how crazy some dogs can be and they need to be watched at all times. I also do potty breaks every 2 hours to prevent any accidents and I make sure the dogs don't get too hot on walks.
About: I have taken care of animals since i was a child! I personally had 4+ dogs/cats at a time growing up since I was 5 years old and even now! As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home the majority of the day and night, which allows me to give consistent attention and supervision. I only step out briefly for school drop-off/pick-up or short errands, typically no more than a few hours total. Your dog will not be left alone for long stretches and will be treated like part of our daily routine, with regular potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of interaction throughout the day. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. We live on 2 fully fenced acres, providing plenty of secure space to run and explore while always supervised. When indoors, pets are part of our family environment — relaxing, playing, or cuddling in a calm and clean home. I carefully follow each dog’s routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions to ensure they feel safe and at ease. My goal is to create a structured but loving environment where your pup feels right at home.
“Saffron did amazing! She sent photos with each check-in and even made me aware of some possible health issues that should be brought to my vets attention. She was easy to communicate with and responded quickly. We will definitely use her again for our next trip.”

Alix did a great job with my pups! They really enjoyed their walk and were able to get some energy out while I’m gone at work for long hours. She even offered to feed them and my cats while I wasn’t home to do so. She sent me pictures of their walk afterward and they looked like they had the best time! Overall fantastic job!! Would definitely recommend and rebook!
Isabella was gracious to come and walk my 11 month old standard Yorkie while I convalesce from sciatic nerve pain. She was certainly very courteous, friendly and showed that she cared, protected and wanted to be with my baby. What I particularly enjoyed was that she was always punctual. I would recommend Isabella if you are looking a young lady who is gracious, caring and a kind pet walker. I will ask Isabella to definitely consider returning.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Woodlawn. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Woodlawn.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Woodlawn. On Rover:
- 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
