About: I’ve taken care of family and friends pets ever since I started High School. I’ve worked at a dog kennel for three years as well! I love dogs, and have always had pups of my own. I am a young college student, 22 years old, and would love to hangout with your furry friend! I am currently a senior at the University of South Carolina, finishing my externship for cardiovascular ultrasound through MUSC. I live in Longs, SC while finishing clinical at Grand Strand Medical. I have ability after my shift ends at 3:30pm M,W,Th,F and after 6pm on Tuesday. I am primarily in town on the weekends, and am open to overnight visits. I would be more than willing to talk about availability more specifically! I am in constant communication with the owner and have years of experience with dogs and cats of all sizes. I am trained in boarding and kenneling as well. I am very comfortable and personal as well.
“As we lost our long term pet sitter due to moving out of state, it was very stressful finding someone to take care of our senior dog who is visually impaired and in the early stages of dementia. We highly recommend Hanna to anyone seeking a reliable and compassionate pet sitter. She communicated regularly with us throughout our trip, sending updates and photos that helped us feel at ease. Her attention to detail and genuine care for our pet made a difficult situation much easier, and we are grateful to have found someone so trustworthy.”
“Oh my goodness, Brook is the absolute best!! Our pets loved her! She sent updates, videos, and pictures which allowed us to feel at sick ease while we were to know that they were loved and well taken care of! We are definitely going to use her again and highly recommend!!”
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. A few years ago I had the opportunity to work with a pet sitting business which allowed me to gain more experience. I am caring, attentive and want the best for your pet. I currently work part- time so I have lots of flexibility in my schedule. I am available on Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday. The other days of the week I am available most afternoons and evenings. I will treat your pet with care and respect. Whether a young dog who needs energy and play or a senior that goes at a slower pace, I am there to accommodate accordingly.
“Nicole did a very nice job house sitting with my pets. She gave them lots of outdoor time and brushings. She left me a nice note when I returned and sent photos while I was away. I would definitely ask for her during my next absence if she is available.”
“Ryan was an amazing dog sitter! He was attentive, caring, and kept great communication throughout. My dogs were very comfortable with him, and I felt completely at ease while away. I’d definitely book with him again!”
“Mandy is an awesome pet/house sitter! She provided my puppy, Palmer, lots of exercise and playtime. She continued his puppy training and even improved on my training plan. She went above and beyond by watering all my plants which looked great after my extended vacation and washed and re-made the bed. When I returned home Palmer was a very happy puppy and showed no signs of stress. I totally recommend hiring Mandy as a pet sitter!”
About: I’ve taken care of pets my whole life. I’ve always had one of my own. I’m very comfortable and familiar around all types of animals. I currently am about to be in between jobs and my schedule is going to pretty open, so I’m looking for some furry friends to spend some time with! I treat others homes as I would mine. I’m a very clean and tidy person and try to keep all areas I come in contact with fairly clean.

“Wow, my furry friend was happy to see me but looked for his new favorite person Angelina which tells me all I need to know about the great care she took of him . My flight was delayed by hrs. Angelina went to make sure my guy was ok. House was perfect shape. She is now my go to whenever my guy needs a friend. Five is not high enough rating.”

About: I am currently a dog mom of 2 looking to help care for your pup! I am well-versed in dog training and can work on things that you might be working on at home. I raised my pup from 8 weeks old and she is currently 2, however my mom rescues/fosters senior dogs so I am familiar with them as well. I feel comfortable with dogs of all sizes. As a dog mom myself, I know how stressful it can be to find a place you feel comfortable leaving your pup. I want to be that place for you! I am a teacher on break for the summer. I am working a few hours of summer school each day. You can ensure that your pup will get plenty of walks and playtime outside of my working hours. I know how important normalcy and routines are, so I strive to make your pups stay as comfortable as possible. Whatever routines and rules are in place at their own home I would try to keep in place!
About: Hi. Thanks for checking out my profile. I provide limited - capacity home boarding in a peaceful country setting, so every dog gets plenty of individual attention. I intentionally take a smaller number of dogs than many sitters because I believe quality care is more important than quantity. Your dog will enjoy supervised outdoor time, a private walking trail for daily sniffing adventures, a structured routine, and a calm home environment. I send regular photo updates so you can relax knowing your pup is in good hands. To make sure every stay is safe and successful, please let me know before booking if your dog has any mobility limitations, separation anxiety, excessive barking or whining, aggression or reactivity, escape tendencies, marking indoors, or special medical needs. Honest communication helps me provide the best care and ensures my home is the right fit for your dog. My goal is simple: treat every dog like family while providing a safe, structured, low-stress stay. I look forward to meeting you and your pup.! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your pet plenty of attention and care. I’m available most weekdays and have open availability on weekends for boarding or extended stays. I prioritize playtime, walks, and keeping your pet comfortable and on their normal routine. I’m also able to adjust my schedule when needed to accommodate feeding times, medications, or special care requests. I have a 7 acre farm it will be fenced off for them to have a space and also I frequently go to the dog park. I also prefer to walk them to bond with them in a safe way.

FAQs for House Sitting - Arcadian Shores
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Arcadian Shores on Rover is $42.8 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 422 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Arcadian Shores. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Arcadian Shores walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Arcadian Shores maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Arcadian Shores choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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 sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters 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 sitter.

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.
