About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! I have been apart of the Rover community for around 5 years now. I am constantly around animals and having to commit myself to taking care of them. I am comfortable around all dogs and am willing to adapt and learn how to best care for your animal. When I come to take care of, play with, and walk your dogs I will dedicate my time to loving them. I would love to be able to take them to the dog park where they can also interact with other animals while you’re away! I am currently home full time and am available for drop ins or house sittings when needed! I am also flexible and can accept last minute bookings. When in your home, I would love to take your fur babies for walks, to dog parks, anything you already do with them to make them the most comfortable! My attention is on my love for animals so I have plenty of availability to care for your pets. I’m available on weekdays anytime and most weekends I will make sure your pet is safe, comfortable, and cared for at all times. I’m happy to follow your instructions and keep their routine consistent!
About: I have life long experience with caring for different types of animals. My most experience comes from dogs (all sizes), cats, guinea pigs, and rats etc. I have experience pet sitting in particular for about 3 years now for family, friends, and others. I have personally cared for puppies/kittens, adults, and seniors. From bottle feeding all the way to the last moments. I currently work a full time job as a loan specialist between the hours 6AM-2:30PM during the week. I have lots of evening time and the weekends to take care of my own pets (feeding, walking, playing, going on trips) and would love to add others to my schedule for those that need or want some extra support. My care varies depending on the pet, their routine, behaviors, and owners preferences. I follow the guidelines and particular care of each animal to the owners interest and knowledge of their pet. Whether that be my friends dog who has to be crated with his one specific toy and his own radio turned to the gospel station to another owner’s instructions that their cats will only eat if you snap your fingers after putting down their bowl.
“Robert was excellent at house sitting and taking care of our 2 dogs. He walked them, cleaned up after them and my house was clean and dogs were happy when I arrived home. Already have him booked for our next trip.”
About: I am a young adult with lots of experience with taking care of cats and dogs. I have grown up around them and I love to take care of them. My daily routine includes emptying litter boxes and sweeping litter off floors. I often accompany my dogs outside to make sure they did their business. I also feed each of my pets daily. While I do not have much experience outside my own home taking care of my pets, I know how to do so while making sure my clients and their pets are happy.
“Grace is a literal god send. I think she had one review when I reached out to her which is always nerve wracking and of course I am worried my glowing review will mean she may never be free for me in future lol but she deserves it. I honestly can’t say enough great things. Communication was stellar, punctual, professional, responsible, respectful, kind, funny, patient and very considerate. A gem of a human. I feel like I won the doggy sitter lottery. If I could leave 10 stars I would. Grace is a class A++++ person. I know she won’t be doing doggy sitting forever and whatever career she goes into.. wow they will be so lucky to have her.”
About: Hi, I am an experienced animal owner with over 20 years of experience rescuing, fostering and providing care to homeless and needy animals. I have seen it all and can handle any situation. My friends and family often call me when they have a pet related question. I love animals and will treat yours like they’re my own. I currently am home full time and have my entire schedule to dedicate to pet sitting or walking. I can be there to tend to your pet at whatever time you need! I understand the stress of leaving your beloved furry babies home and in the care of strangers, but I’m here to make sure that stress is minimized. I can give your pet specialized care and give you regular updates so it feels as if you never left them!
About: My mother was a foster of over 2000 animals, so animal care is in my heart and I’ve always strived to make animals lives better. Recently moved from Dallas, Tx. To Myrtle beach my availability is as open as it’s needed. Extremely punctual and value your time as much as my own. To my best degree, I have always believed that animals should be treated as an extension of yourself, with the same care, respect, and attention you give your own well being.
“Lexi did a great job housesitting while we were away. We came back to a tidy house and two happy dogs who seemed to have been well taken care of. We would be happy to work with her again for pet care :)”
“Overall, WONDERFUL experience! We had a last minute day trip up to the mountains for a graduation and she was able to watch our pup for the day. Great communication and no worries about how our little Leia was treated. I highly recommend her for any upcoming bookings you need!”
“Robert does a wonderful job caring for my dogs while I’m away. I get photos while I’m gone and when I get home it’s like I never left. They get lots of cuddles and play time too!”
“Jo-Anne was the perfect match for Holly. This was my first Rover experience and I will re-book with Jo-Anne again. She was prompt, communicated well and spoiled Holly the entire week.”
About: I enjoy taking active dogs for long walks & runs! No issue providing meds & special attention for older fellas/ladies. I have sat for cats for extended stays as well. Happy to do so again! I work remote 3-5 days a week so I can take breaks to walk your dogs or give them a potty break a few times per day, including midday. I currently have no pets at home, however I grew up with 2-3 dogs and a cat for 18 years. I'll love taking your dog for long walks/runs if they need it! I am happy to care for special needs animals or those who require medications at each meal. Just send me your instructions and I'll treat them as you would! I am open to sitting cats, but would consider myself a dog person.
“Allen was great! I needed a last minute sitter and Allen was the perfect choice. Great communication and put up with my silly dogs with no complaints. Left my house in great condition. I look forward to having him stay with my beasties again. Thank you so much! 💜”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and genuinely love caring for them. I grew up in a homeschooled household with a dog and three cats, so being hands-on with pet care was just part of everyday life. As a kid, I was known around my neighborhood for walking dogs, pet sitting, and helping out wherever I could—even mowing lawns for neighbors—so responsibility and reliability were instilled in me early on. I also spent time working on an alpaca farm, which gave me experience caring for animals with different needs and personalities. In my adult life, I regularly help care for my sister’s three dogs, and since she’s a veterinarian, I’ve learned a lot about animal behavior, health, and proper care through her. I’m also very involved with my two nephews, so patience and attentiveness come naturally to me. One of the most meaningful experiences I’ve had was caring for our family dog, Toby, in his later years. As the youngest, it became my responsibility to make sure he was comfortable, safe, and well cared for as he aged. He lived to be 16, and that experience taught me a lot about compassion, consistency, and the importance of attentive care. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I already structure my days around being consistent, active, and attentive. I’m used to building my schedule around responsibilities, so walks, feeding times, and check-ins feel like a natural part of my day rather than something extra. On a weekly basis, I regularly help care for my sister’s dogs, so I’m already in the rhythm of walking, feeding, and spending quality time with pets. I also keep a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets the time, attention, and care they need without rushing. Overall, I enjoy having pet care as part of my routine—it keeps me active, present, and doing something I genuinely enjoy. I focus on keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. In a client’s home, I follow all care instructions carefully—feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any specific preferences—so your pet feels safe and stress-free in their own environment. I also make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship, not just the basics. If I’m caring for a pet in my home, I provide a clean, calm, and safe environment where they can relax. I keep a consistent schedule for feeding, walks, and bathroom breaks, and I’m always attentive to their behavior and needs. I make sure they feel included and comfortable, whether that means active play or just relaxing nearby. No matter the setting, my priority is making sure each pet feels secure, cared for, and happy while you’re away.
“Kelsey is an amazing sitter! Our dog Gypsy took to her immediately, and they had the best time. Kelsey is so good at sending updates on how everything is going. She kept my house in perfect condition. It’s such an ease on my mind that she comes and stays and keeps Gypsy in her element. Highly recommend Kelsey!”
About: Hey, I’m Cassidy! I worked as a Veterinary Assistant for over 5 years before transitioning into pet sitting full time, and I’ve cared for animals my entire life. Between my vet assistant background, my own pets, and years of hands-on pet care, I’m comfortable caring for pups and kitties of different ages, sizes, personalities, routines, and medical needs. I currently offer house sitting and drop-in visits, so your pets can stay comfortable in their own home while still getting the care, attention, and routine they’re used to. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, meals, medication, snuggles, potty breaks, or just a calm presence while you’re away, I’ll do my best to make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets and your home. I’m happy to follow detailed instructions, keep you updated with photos and messages, and help with small home tasks like bringing in mail, watering plants, or keeping things tidy while you’re gone. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your pets. I want them to feel like their routine stayed familiar, their needs were met, and they had a friend looking out for them the whole time. Feel free to reach out with any questions or details about your pet’s routine- I’d love to learn more about them and see if we’d be a good fit! I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to prioritize pet care throughout the day. For house sitting, I’m able to spend plenty of time with your pets in their own home and keep their routine as normal as possible. For drop-in visits, I make sure each visit includes whatever your pet needs most — meals, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medication, litter box care, or just some extra love and attention. I do step out for errands, appointments, and occasional outings, but I always plan my schedule around the pets in my care and their specific needs. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I currently house sitting and drop-in visits and I love that this allows pets to stay in their familiar environment, stick to their normal routines, and feel more comfortable while their people are away. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your instructions closely and treat your space with respect. I’m mindful with doors, gates, leashes, feeding routines, medications, and any house rules you have in place. During outdoor time, I always keep a close eye on pets, whether we’re going for a walk, having supervised yard time, or taking a quick potty break. My goal is to keep your pets safe, comfortable, and cared for while giving you peace of mind with updates along the way.
About: I have great experience with taking care of all pets. I have also fostered multiple animals in the past couple of years and love it!

I have a fenced in backyard with a lot of room to run around. I have my own dog who is super friendly. Your pet will have my full attention at all times!

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 Brunswick 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 Brunswick 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Brunswick 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.

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 .

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.
