About: I have over 15 years experience with cats as well as dogs and any size. My whole life has been loving and caring for both and treating them as if they are real kids! Skills: medication administration (oral, topical, & injectable), brushing, walking, and all the loves!! My biggest advantage is that I work from home so I can do all day house sitting, overnights, or just a drop in if needed! I work from home so I can take my laptop anywhere! Overnights, drop ins, house sitting all day, and walking. Play time is also included unless they’re older! I love my pets and everyone else’s like they’re legitimate children. Loving on them, playing, cuddles, changing out litter boxes once-twice a day, feeding at the scheduled times, and snacks if appropriate.

“Rebekah did a great job pet sitting at our house with our 4-year old lab/belgian manois shepherd. We had a very last minute need for 4 nights/5 days in our home and Rebekah managed to make it work with short notice. Maya was happy and she has a new friend in Rebekah. We highly recommend her.”

About: Animals have always held a very special place in my heart. I grew up surrounded by both dogs and cats, and caring for animals has been something I’ve genuinely loved for as long as I can remember. To me, pets aren’t just animals—they’re family, and they deserve to be treated with the same love, patience, and kindness we would want for our own. I have over 15 years of dog-sitting experience and have had the privilege of caring for dogs with all kinds of personalities, energy levels, routines, and individual needs. I’m also a trained dog groomer, which has given me valuable hands-on experience with safe handling, grooming, hygiene, and understanding the little things that can make a pet more comfortable and happy. I’ve also completed veterinary assistant training, giving me additional knowledge and confidence when it comes to providing attentive and responsible care. When your pets are in my care, I treat them as if they were my own. I know how hard it can be to leave your furry family members with someone else, and I want you to have complete peace of mind knowing they’re safe, loved, comfortable, and receiving plenty of attention while you’re away. Every pet is different, and I believe their care should be too. Whether your dog is happiest going on long walks, playing and exploring, relaxing on the couch, or simply getting lots of cuddles and companionship, I’m happy to follow their routine and give them the kind of care that makes them feel secure and loved. I’m also happy to accommodate special routines, individual needs, or behavioral quirks that make your pet unique. My goal is not only to care for your pets, but to build a trusting relationship with them—and with you. Your pets’ happiness, safety, and well-being will always be my top priorities. I would absolutely love the opportunity to meet you and get to know your furry family. I’ll do everything I can to make their time with me feel like a loving home away from home. 🐶🐱❤️ I currently work part-time, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to spend plenty of quality time caring for your pets. I’m also in the process of starting my own in-home grooming business, so I’m able to build my schedule around the needs of the animals in my care. When I care for your pets, I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing they’re in loving, trustworthy hands. I understand that your pets are family, and leaving them in someone else’s care can be stressful. My goal is to make that time away as easy and worry-free for you as possible. While staying in your home, I will respect your space, follow your house rules, and keep things clean and cared for. I’ll also make sure your pets’ normal routines are maintained as closely as possible, because I know how important consistency and familiarity can be to them. If anything unexpected comes up, I will contact you right away. I’m also happy to accommodate special routines, medications, behavioral needs, or anything else that helps your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Most importantly, I’ll care for your pets as if they were my own—with patience, kindness, attention, and plenty of love. Your peace of mind and your pet’s happiness and wellbeing will always be my top priorities. I want you to come home knowing your pets were not only cared for, but genuinely loved while you were away.

“Meghan was an absolute gem! She was able to work on the fly, completely last minute, as our regular dog sitter cancelled last minute. She was so easy to communicate with, and she took incredible care of our 2 dogs. I really appreciated the updates and I had complete peace of mind on our weekend trip that our dogs were in good hands. I absolutely saved her information for next time!”

Kelle is the best sitter we’ve ever had for our senior dog, who has anxiety and mobility issues. Because he needs so much care and attention, I rarely leave home, so trusting someone with him is a big deal for us. Kelle was wonderful from the start. She understood his mobility limitations and made sure he was safe and comfortable the entire time. Since he gets very anxious when he’s alone, she offered to stay with him 24/7 and never left him alone in the house, which was a game changer. For the first time, I was able to leave without worrying about him. She went above and beyond with regular updates and photos, which gave me real peace of mind, and she left our home clean and well cared for. I can’t recommend Kelle enough!

Teddy is an energetic 13 month old who doesn’t know his size or power. Sarah and her husband were incredible with him and immediately got Teddy acclimated in their home with their own dogs. The communication and pictures/videos were just what was needed for piece of mind and reassurance that our dog was behaving himself with his new found friends. I would use Sarah again in the future and know he was loved, taken care of and having fun. Thank you, Sarah!

Simply AMAZING!!!! Right before Hayley's sitting was set to begin, one of my dogs experienced an emergency. She rushed directly to the house and loaded him into her vehicle and took him to the vet. She stayed with him at the vet and then brought him home and bathed him!!! I literally cannot thank her enough!! She was absolutely amazing and she continued to care for my two dogs until I could get home to them!! :) I would highly recommend to anyone!! Thank you, Hayley!! :)

FAQs for House Sitting - Beaufort

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Beaufort is $44 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $87 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 132 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Beaufort. 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 Beaufort 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 Beaufort 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 Beaufort 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 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 Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Beaufort. On Rover:

  • 99% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
