“Jordyn did an excellent job of taking care of my huskies while I was gone for a week! With my younger one especially having destructive tendencies, I was a little worried about leaving that long, but she was great with them and the house was in great shape when I got back! She was reliable and communicative and I will definitely book her again!”
“Bridgette was wonderful with my 2 dogs! One of the dogs was recently adopted and was still in a chewing phase but Bridgette dealt with it very well. She was very responsive to our messages and our dogs were well cared for. Highly recommend!”
“Excellent pet sitter! She was very responsible, punctual, and caring with our dogs. She followed all instructions and kept us updated the entire time. We felt completely at ease knowing they were in great hands.”
“Our pets were in great hands with Kailen and she literally saved the day. our original pet sitter no showed us the morning we were supposed leave. She came by that day, received all the instructions last minute and came to stay in our house the next morning so we could take off for about 12 days. She was great at being flexible and keeping them on their schedule. Daily pictures and updates were super appreciated. When we came home the house looked great, everyone was so happy, calm and well taken care of. we would gladly rebook Kailen any time and couldn’t recommend her enough.”
“Tori was very responsive during the booking process as well as right before, during and after she left my home. Raven has allergies and she ensured she ate and took her medications. She was courteous of my home, even cleaning up a mess Raven left for her… and consistently provided me with pictures and updates to show me how happy Raven was while I was away. I know Raven is looking forward to having her stay again!”
“Rowan did a wonderful job caring for all of our pets! I especially appreciated the experience with giving insulin injections to our diabetic dog—everything went smoothly and gave us peace of mind.”

“We came home to a happy dog and kitties and a tidy home! Cory sent plenty of pictures throughout the house stay and made sure to let our dog out often. I would definitely re-book with her in the future!”
“Aaron was wonderful and truly loved spending time with Gracie and Roxie! Aaron sent pictures and updates daily, which was greatly appreciated! He let me know that Roxie took a little bit of time to warm up but then was herself with being a big snuggler, and that Gracie did great on her walks. Last time we had made this trip we had an 8 hour delay, and asked Aaron ahead of time if something like this happened again could he stay, and he said he could. Luckily all went well and we were able to arrive home on time to two very happy and very well cared for pups! Will definitely use Aaron again!!”
“Aby was so amazing to our dog when we went out of town for a long weekend. He required daily medication after a last minute emergency vet visit, and she went above and beyond to keep him comfortable as well as keeping me informed. Aby took great care of the house and was so respectful. Everything was clean and tidy when we arrived back at home. She followed all instructions to a T, and sent photos and messages frequently! Will definitely be a repeat client of hers, and you should be too!”
“Cheyenne was absolutely amazing - she stayed in our house for 5 days and watched our two dogs. Best dog sitter we’ve used (and we’ve had a good few)!! She sent updates and kept them on their routines! Left our house clean as can be. Dogs were happy as can be when we got home so we knew they had a great time too!”
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.
“Wonderful experience with Mackenzie who house sat for our dog and cat over a weekend. Kind, considerate, communicative and respectful describe Mackenzie. Our pets quickly warmed to her and were happy and relaxed the whole weekend. She checked in with updates and photos so we never had to wonder how things were going. She took great care of the house and left it clean and tidy. We look forward to engaging her again! Highly recommend.”
“Amaris was able to sit for us at the last minute. She did a great job, updates, photos and left our house better than how we left it. We recommend Amaris and will be asking her to sit for Hermione again.”
“Renne and Donovan were responsive and prompt. They provided pictures and updates based on our preferences. We came home to happy cats, without any of the anxiety we usually notice after trips. I’ve already booked with them again and would happily recommend them.”
“ZaNayah has done such a wonderful job sitting for our 3 fur babies. She has gone above and beyond!! We received lots of photos and videos, communication was on point, My fur babies were. Very happy, she shown them lots of attention and lots of Love!! I couldn't ask for a more better Sitter than Nayah!! She covered us the last minute for a Thanksgiving trip, and I got to say.. This Thanksgiving we are are definitely Thankful and grateful for Her!! The home was clean, everyone was happy and We will definitely Book with Nayah in the Near future!!”
“Mya is absolutely incredible and our pups loved her!! We had unexpected travel delays and she extended the visit to stay until we were able to get back!! She is amazing and I could not recommend her enough!!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! Paul stayed at our home for the weekend and took amazing care of our dogs. He sent regular updates, photos, and even checked in on them again after our flight was delayed—going above and beyond. Our pups were happy and relaxed when we got home. Highly recommend and would absolutely book again!”
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.

Victoria waa very good with Lucy. She waa able to give her meds and adhere to her feeding regimen. She sent pics of Lucy at different times even when walking her which she loves. She also washed our dishes up and kept things tidy. Will definitely call her again when we need a sitter.
Cory left my house clean and tidy. She sent regular photos and videos of my babies, who seemed to enjoy hanging out with her. She was kind enough to water the garden, and stopped back by to feed everyone one last time when my flight home was delayed. Thank you Cory!
Elisa stayed with our dog at our home for 5 nights and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away and she was caring for him. She sent lots of photo/text updates and followed all pet instructions very clearly. We will continue to work with her in any future travels.
I can’t say enough great things about Itziar. My pups loved her immediately and they never do that. She posted updates and sent me pictures every day. I feel like my pups were well taken care of while I was on vacation. I even came back a day early and nothing was amiss. Would highly recommend.
Gillian was great! She stayed for the weekend and loved on our animals like her own. She took our dog for a car ride one of the days and a nice walk. She kept in touch and sent pictures of the cat & dog who looked very content with her being there. We will definitely use Gillian again!
As is always the case, Kristen does fantastic each and every time we reach out to her for help. Out pets love her and she takes such good care of them. She even excels as an emergency contractor to repair screen doors during inclement weather! Thanks a million Kristen.
