About: Hello, I'm excited to welcome your fur buddy into our home. We will love them as our very own and keep them happy while your away. I've owned dogs since I was in elementary and have provided care for my family and friends. I work a flexible, hybrid schedule which makes it convenient to be available care for our fur guest. I'm off every weekend and will have a laid back daily routine for them. Walks, playtime, outside play and of course snuggles. I will accommodate each and every pups needs. I have a very safe home. Our back yard is fenced in with tons of running and exploring space. I will NOT keep aggressive dogs. If you know your dog is aggressive and doesn't get along with other dogs, please do not choose me. I have to ensure the safety for all of my babies. (Pups) As an extra precaution I ask for an updated picture of your dog's shots record. This provides transparency for all parties. I want to make sure that all if my babies are safe and healthy at all times.
About: I've had a Yorkie Terrier Mix (Tico) since I was about eight years old and would consistently take care of him while home. My tasks consist of frequent walks to ensure fitness, meals twice a day, a snack or two if he's being good, and making sure he looks handsome and is clean. I would also frequently take care of local friends pets and homes while away on vacation! I grew up taking of my dog Tico since I was about 8 years old and have taken up that responsibility since then! Ever since moving away I’ve missed getting to spend time with furbabies! If hired for services, I will ensure that I will take care of your home and pet as I would mine. I know as a furry friend lover myself, I want to make sure my pet is not only safe but happy while being taken care of.
About: I have had experience caring for dogs ever since I was little. I currently own one 2 year old spayed female miniature schnauzer who loves other dogs! I am in Pharmacy school with UGA and live in a house with a fenced in yard! I have a lot of experience pet sitting for all sizes and breeds of dogs. I have no problem administering medicines and completing any extra tasks you might need. I will go above and beyond to care for your dog while you are away! I am currently enrolled in 14 credit hours at UGA. I usually have around 2 or 3 classes a day with plenty of time in between. I can visit multiple times a day and also stay at your house overnight! I am extremely attentive and able to pick up on signals from your pet to make sure they are safe and loved. I will follow all rules to keep your house safe and clean while I am there. The safety of your animal is my top priority and I will clearly communicate any issues as soon as they arise.
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life. I currently have one dog here in savannah named Pax, and have raised and cared for my two childhood dogs, Buddy and Brownie, along with occasional sitting for my aunts three legged disabled dog named Wags, giving me hands-on experience with daily routines, behavior, and long-term care. I also have taken care of a cat full time for a year so I have experience with cats as well. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, and making sure every animal feels safe and cared for. I treat every pet like my own and pay close attention to their individual needs, whether they’re energetic or more relaxed. I’m currently a student at SCAD, but I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. I’m available on weekends and weekdays before or after my classes, with lots of time in the afternoons and evenings for walks, playtime, and attention. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for. I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have hands-on experience caring for cats as well. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and routine, and I always follow owner instructions carefully. I can crate if needed, keep spaces clean, and make sure pets are always supervised, secure, and happy.
About: I've had over 20 years of pet care experience, ranging between several different dog breeds and sizes, cats, rodents, reptiles, and even some bird-sitting. I understand each pet is different in their own way, some needing certain medications or volumes of food and water, and other pets are easier to take care of, but their owners need someone last minute to help watch and take care of their beloved pets. I also know when it comes to more than one pet in the household, some pets can get rowdy with each other and may tend to hurt one other, so I'm used to cleaning up after and treating the occasional bites or scratches they inflict. Having to give medications, give special food, and even seeing blood or recent wounds on animals doesn't stop me from providing the care they need while their owners are away at work or vacation or whatever else life has thrown their way. I've been known to be a reliable petsitter by many friends and family members over the years, and I make sure to follow all needs and specifications for each pet, regardless of their age and their size. At the moment, I am available all day on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, and then on Mondays and Wednesdays I am attending a class from 9:30 AM to 12:30 AM, which anytime before or afterwards I can help walk or watch over pets. While I do not currently offer petsitting at my own home due to my roommates, I understand that every owner's household and every pet is different. I make sure that each of the doors and windows are closed and locked for the pet's safety, unless otherwise specified by the owners. If there are certain rooms or parts of the house off-limits to myself or the pets, I keep us away from those areas for the owner's privacy. And if the pets do tend to make a mess or I use any of the utilities of the home to help clean and take care of the pets, I make sure that everything is turned off and cleaned up afterwards so there are no messes for the owners when they return to their home and beloved pets.
About: I’ve grown up with multiple dogs starting at the puppy stage. I have an Aussie who is dog friendly and very energetic. I trained her to walk off leash as well as commands. I am comfortable with all preferences when it’s comes to your fur baby I work 5 mins (walking) from my home. I go home every 2 hours to let dogs out. I walk before and after work and during my lunch. I have a dog park right outside that is private and has space. I love with snuggle w pups and also play. I will provide photo updates to make sure you stay in touch!
About: I grew up around pets my as a child and have owned dogs for 32 years of all sizes and types. I have always been the go to person for everyone to care for their pets and i love it. I have no problem feeding, bathing, training or walking your pet as if it were my own. Our pets are our children as well and we need to care for them the best way we can. I am self employed and work my own schedule so I can care for your pet Friday -Tuesdays 9am-3pm. Different days or later hours can be arranged with at least a weeks notice. I have a fenced yard and can Kennel the dog if needed but for the most part I prefer for them to get a feel of my home and my rules.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Bluffton
Cami, was FANTASTIC! This is the first time we have left him at home with a sitter. Our dog is very affectionate and adjusted to Cami immediately. She was punctual, very responsive with pics and messages, and engaged with our dog for playtime. I would 100% recommend Cami to care for anyone's pet.
Kylie was amazing! She watched and handled our dogs so they could be a part of our wedding! They were going to be in the ceremony but due to rain plans that changed last minute but Kylie was great and went with the flow and handlers them great during photos! I highly recommend using her for any form of pet sitting or dog handling!

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Bluffton 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!
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 .
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.
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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking.
