“Another successful stay with Janece & Matthew! We experienced significant delays for our return trip from vacation which caused us to have to add an additional day to our pup’ Chowder’s stay. Needless to say, Janece and Matthew were understanding and accommodated our needs. As with our Chowder’s previous stays, Janece and Matthew kept me updated on how he was doing by sending daily updates which included pictures and videos. Janece and Matthew are awesome and I never worry Chowder when he is with them.”

Tamera was understanding about puppy mistakes and her dog, Skrewball, was very patient and good with my dogs. I will use her again should the need arise! Can’t say enough good things about this experience!”

About: I’ve been a dog lover my whole life! I grew up with two dogs and have spent years pet sitting and caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I love walks, playtime, cuddles, and making sure every pup feels happy and comfortable while their humans are away. I’d love to meet your furry friend! 🐾 I currently work full time but have a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to care for your dog. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting around my work schedule, and I’m happy to work with you to find a time that fits your pet’s routine. I love spending my free time outdoors and would be excited to have a furry companion join me! I’m happy to welcome dogs into my apartment and provide a comfortable, safe, and relaxed home away from home. Your pup will get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and cuddles while they’re staying with me. I’ll do my best to keep their routine as close to normal as possible so they feel right at home!

“Beatriz was so great with Zeus and Zoey. We wanted someone that would give them their undivided attention and she did just that. She also had a huge yard and patio area which is great for them to run around in. She sent us lots of pics and updates which I also appreciated. I’d definitely recommend trusting her with your pups and I would definitely use her again next time I go out of town.”

“This was my first time leaving my dog with a sitter. Stacey and her family took care and treated my dog as if she were their own. Stacey stayed in contact throughout the entire time an updated me if needed. My dog came back in the same condition if not better then when i dropped her off. Would defiantly use again and recommend.”

Emma was wonderful! We were traveling through Columbia when our lodging arrangements unexpectedly changed and we found ourselves needing someone to watch Marlin overnight. Emma responded right away and was able to accommodate us on extremely short notice, which we were so appreciative of. She was great with communication and made sure all of Marlin’s needs were met. Most importantly, he seemed very happy and comfortable with her! We’re so grateful she was able to help us out at the last minute and would definitely recommend her to anyone needing a caring and reliable sitter.

Merrell was wonderful with our pup. We had peace of mind knowing that Scout was in such great hands. We got updates throughout the day and felt completely comfortable knowing Scout was being well taken care of. Scout is high energy and loves to play, when we picked her up, she was tired and happy. We definitely plan to rebook with Merrell in the future!

Very caring and attentive couple with the cutest mini Goldendoodle who will be the ultimate playmate for your pup. It was my first time leaving my dog and it could not have been a smoother experience - with lots of photos and updates to keep my anxieties at bay. I highly recommend Savannah & Chandler!

We were nervous to leave our mini sheepadoodle for the first time. She’s a bit shy, but Randi sent us daily updates and set our minds at ease right away. We were thrilled that she got to play with other dogs during her stay as well. Randi will be our go-to now anytime we need a dog sitter. Highly, highly recommend!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.

Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Arcadia Lakes home-away-from-home, packing:

  • Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
  • Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
  • Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Arcadia Lakes.

<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

You and your Arcadia Lakes sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.

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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Every sitter 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 .

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.

Many sitters in SC ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
