About: Hi! I’m Lauren, a lifelong dog lover and proud dog mom to my pup, Piper. I’ve cared for dogs of different ages and personalities, including dogs with separation anxiety, training needs, and active exercise routines. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet because I feel the same way about my own dog. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing fetch, cuddling on the couch, or just having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I work remotely, which will give me the flexibility to provide attentive care, frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of companionship throughout the day! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have experience caring for my own dog and understand how important it is to create a calm, secure environment. I follow all owner instructions carefully, provide regular updates and photos, and make sure pets receive plenty of supervision, exercise, and love while in my care.
About: Have been a dog/cat owner for as long as I can remember. My dog passed a few years ago, still healing but have my parents dog that keeps me company. I love Disc golfing, if your dog likes to go for long walks and enjoys sports they can join me. I am currently in between jobs, so my schedule is open. However I can help your pet when You are busy with work, and or life. My schedule is open, I am available to come to your home to feed, short walk or take your dog to a park for an extended walk if requested. I am also available to stay with your dog(s) overnight.
“Mia pet sat overnight for my senior dog and cats. We did a meet & greet beforehand and she asked lots of relative questions. She provided updates throughout the weekend and treated scout like a queen. The cats were being aloof this weekend but she tried to make friends with them. Thank you Mia for letting me getaway and caring for my babies.”

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.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Ashley Forest
Lauren was absolutely wonderful. She is easy to work with and quick to respond. She took such good care of our pups when we were out of town. She went above and beyond and even helped with some things around the house. I would definitely book Lauren again in the future.
Leaving our THREE very spoiled, particular, and needy dogs for almost five days was incredibly stressful, especially since they’re used to having us home and we knew they’d be anxious. Finding someone we trusted to care for them AND our home was a big deal. Jaynie exceeded every expectation! Our dogs were happy, comfortable, and clearly so well cared for, and somehow our house was even cleaner than when we left it! She gave us complete peace of mind, which is priceless when you’re away with two toddlers. I genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better dog or house sitter. We will absolutely be using Jaynie again. HIGHLY recommend!
This young lady went above and beyond anything I could have asked for. She took such good care of all my fur babies with all their medicine and little quirks. I came back to my house probable cleaner, then I left it just amazing. She is AWSOME. Thank you so very much.
Katherine did an exceptional job taking care of my Harlo. She was very attentive and a great communicator, sending frequent updates. Katherine provided above and beyond wound care and medication administration. Could not have asked for more, especially as a last minute rover 😊
Lydia was a great dog and house sitter! She was so easy to work with, a good communicator and my dog was happy! She was super respectful of our home and even washed the sheets and towels. We came home to a lovely clean home and a happy dog! I have now used her twice and look forward to booking again.
Naomi was great with my dogs. I have one who is extra fearful and she was very patient and understanding with him as he warmed up. She gave them lots of love, they were perfectly safe & she was always on time for the times we agreed upon. 100% would book again.

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 Ashley Forest 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 Ashley Forest 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 Ashley Forest 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 , 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 .
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
