“Marie is absolutely the best pet sitter I've experienced. Madison and Reilly get so excited when she comes in. She does her job well and the pups eat well and go to their bathroom break without resistance. I would trust her over my friends to care for them. Thank you Marie.”
“I highly recommend Katie to help take care of your pet. I had some detailed instructions for her and she carried them out perfectly. She took her time on her visits, and I fully trusted her with my dog. I am very happy with her services and I will definitely use her again!”
About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs since I was young, and I’ve always been the person friends, family, and neighbors can count on to care for their pets. As a rescue dog mom myself, I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m comfortable with energetic dogs, long walks, playtime, feeding, and giving plenty of love and attention. Working in the athletic training field, I care for athletes daily and that patience, responsibility and attentiveness to safety translates to dogs as well! I’ll treat your pup like they’re my own and keep you updated with photos along the way! My schedule gives me some flexibility to provide walks and drop-in visits throughout the week. I’m especially available during the early mornings, lunch breaks, evenings after work, and weekends. I’m happy to work with you to find a time that fits your pup’s routine. I’m an athletic trainer by profession, so I’m naturally attentive, responsible, and safety-minded. I’m used to caring for others and staying calm in unexpected situations, and I bring that same care and attention to every pup I look after.

“Brittany did a great job taking care of my furry friends! They were well cared for! I would highly recommend Brittany to anyone needing drop in visits! I plan to request her services again!”
About: I've always had dogs growing up and I have lot's of experience dog sitting / dog walking. I worked for a well-known dog walking company over the summer when I was home from college. I'm currently a student. I have lots of free time when I'm not in class and I would absolutely love to spend that time with furry friends! I have one cat and one dog in my home! They get unlimited cuddles whenever I am not in class. Our pup gets many walks a day and lots of play time!
“Tawny was great! I have 4 dogs, ranging in sizes, and they are very high maintenance. she did great with all of them! Followed instructions perfectly, had great communication, and made me feel so comfortable with my pups under her care. I will be requesting her every time I need a sitter for my doggos!”
About: I have had a dog consistently since I was 10 years old. They are my best friends. I have experience walking them, baths, playing, training, giving them proper medication when needed and just making sure they are cared for and loved. I currently have a 12 year old teddy bear, she has cataracts and is losing her spark, I can't take her on walks like before anymore. I would love to see the joy in other dogs, like how happy they get when going outside or just getting attention when you are working or want a night out! I am used to being on a routine. I currently walk outside daily now and would love to have some company with some furry friends 😊 I have an 12 year old teddy bear dog that I have had since she was 1 years old. She developed arthritis in her knees and hips as she got older. I have to give her medication, she also got diagnosed with cataracts, so she can't go for walks with me anymore.
“Jessica was great! She came for a meet and greet beforehand and then came for the drop in visit. Luna was well cared for and had a little walk and dinner and treats. Luna was a happy girl!”
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. As a pet owner and animal lover, I understand that our pets are family, and they deserve the same love, attention, and care that we would want for our own. I have spent my adult life around animals of all sizes and personalities and am comfortable providing dependable care, companionship, exercise, feeding, and plenty of affection. As a U.S. Navy Veteran, mom, and professional, I pride myself on being reliable, trustworthy, and attentive to details. Whether you're away for a day or an extended trip, you can feel confident knowing your pet is in caring and capable hands. My goal is simple: to provide a safe, loving environment where your pet feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you're away. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate drop-in visits, walks, overnight stays, and extended care as needed. Whether you're planning a vacation, working long hours, or simply need someone reliable to check in on your pet, I am happy to work with your schedule and your pet's routine. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I strive to provide dependable, loving care while giving pet parents peace of mind. My goal is to be a trusted resource you can count on whenever you need help caring for your furry family members. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I understand the trust it takes to leave your pet and your home in someone else's care, and I take that responsibility seriously. As a U.S. Navy Veteran, mom, and professional, I pride myself on being dependable, respectful, and attentive to detail. I will care for your pets as if they were my own and treat your home with the same respect and care that I would expect for mine. My goal is to provide peace of mind while you're away, knowing that your pets are safe, loved, and receiving the attention they deserve.
About: I have had dogs all my life. I have taken care of my own for the past nine years as well as fostered a few dogs for a few days/weeks at a time to give it the chance to decompress from the shelter. Dogs are the best part of me! I am currently a student at Coastal Carolina! I have customized my schedule and have more than enough time to spend with your furry friends! I love to walk and let them enjoy fresh air as well as cuddle and rest. I will adapt to whatever your dog(s) may need!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs every kind since I was 10 and I’ve been around them my whole life. I love spending time with animals whether it’s a long walk, a hike, or some snuggles on the couch. I’m currently in college so between me and my partner we are home almost all week. Also available on weekends. Animals will have frequent potty breaks, love, and visitors! I have grass area for potty breaks and long walks we can go on. I’m available to crate any animal at night or have them in bed.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for decades, bullies especially. I can walk feed and clean your babies. I have vet techs as friends and they always come with great advice. I have plenty of time to walk and play with your pups for i work near by and flexible with my schedule. Weekends or weekdays I always clean my pups before re entering the house. Wipe downs to keep the home clean. Can crate your puppy if needed (up to 50lbs)
About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life and have had three family dogs and two cats who have been part of my life since I was about 12. I’ve also helped care for many other family and friends’ pets over the years, including regular dog and cat sitting and house sitting. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes and personalities, from small dogs who want to be attached to your hip to big dogs who need plenty of exercise. I’ve cared for pets with special diets, medications or other medical needs, specific exercise routines, and particular sleeping arrangements. I understand that every pet is different, so I don’t expect them all to have the same routine or personality. My goal is to follow what works for your pet and make them feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. I’m also happy to keep up with basic training routines, puppy energy, senior pets who need a slower pace, and pets who simply need a little extra patience and attention. I work a set Monday through Friday schedule at my full-time job in Myrtle Beach from 7:30 AM to 3:00 PM, so my availability is consistent and predictable rather than changing from week to week. I’m available for pet care before or after work during the week, and I have much more flexibility on Saturdays and Sundays. I have a reliable car and am willing to travel up to about 45 minutes for the right booking. Because my work schedule is set, I’m able to plan ahead and be consistent with visits, walks, feedings, medications, and other routines your pets are used to. I provide pet care in the client’s home rather than bringing pets into my own home. I know that having someone stay in or regularly enter your home is a big part of trusting a pet sitter, so I take that responsibility seriously. I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep doors and gates secure, make sure pets don’t have access to anything unsafe, and keep their normal routines as consistent as possible. I’m also respectful of your home and belongings and will leave things the way I found them. For walks and outings, I pay attention to each pet’s individual behavior and comfort level.
About: I have had dogs of my own since I was a child. I have been involved in fostering for local rescues & shelters for 5 years I have co-ran my own 501c3 rescue for almost 3 years I do work full time, so I am gone Monday- Friday from roughly 7A.M until 6 P.M. (depending on how far you are from my job). I drive Uber on the weekends during the summer months, but those hours are flexible & can vary based on your pet's needs. I have a fenced yard, but I have 3 senior dogs of my own and because of running the rescue, I usually have a foster dog as well so taking a dog into my home would be more challenging, but if I were to drop in or stay at your home, your dog(s) would get all of the one on one attention &time that they require
“We will definitely be using Britany as our Rover again. She was so kind & our dog just loved her. We felt very comfortable having her in our home with him. She was on time and went above & beyond for us. We highly recommend Britany.”
About: I work at an animal hospital in Myrtle beach South Carolina. I have been working with animals for 8 years. I would love to meet your fur baby. I currently work full time at animal hospital. I work at 8am-6pm would do a long walk before leaving work. I will come home for lunch to let your fur baby runs and have a potty break and give them so much attention. We have a leash only community. We also can provide a crate if owners feel more comfortable while we aren’t home. We can make any accommodations if needed.
About: Hi, I started pet sitting when I was earning my BS in Animal Science from LSU. Over the years I’ve worked as a vet tech and at medical/ veterinary schools/ teaching hospitals. I’ve been a basic skills/ obedience trainer and watched clients’ pets at their homes or brought them into mine for 35 yrs. I live in a quiet neighborhood 6 miles from Myrtle Beach airport with my 1 year old Lab and his 8 year old All American cat. We love other animals and are very understanding of friends’ individual personalities. We’d love to add your family to ours. I only host one client family's request at a time. Your furry kids will only play with my dog and cat. Caution: let us know if your pets are on a diet because we love treats to bond and offer positive reinforcement. Hope to hear from you soon. I work from home and spend most of the day with my laptop outside on the patio. There’s also a dog door so the pups can come in and out it will if they need the yard or AC. Even when I’m in the office, the door is open. Generally, your pups will only be crated between 10 PM - 6 AM and 6 PM to 8 PM while I’m at the gym. Other than that, my eyes are on them all the time so they can run loose. I do make exceptions for older and/or well-behaved guests. I believe that each animal is an individual so I avoid broad assumptions. Please feel free to ask any questions. I believe in setting pups up for success. This means eliminating situations where they could get into trouble -such as a young dog being loose at night and having an accident, chewing prohibited item, etc. Unfortunately, I’ve seen accidents happen. So I know they can. I treat everyone else’s loved pet as I would a child. It’s a big responsibility that I take very seriously.
About: Hi, my name is Payton. I am a registered nurse looking for something fun to do on the side. When I was in college I worked for a dog day care facility in Wellesley, MA. I have had pet dogs my whole life and I love them! My family has a three legged chocolate lab who is absolutely adorable, currently living with my mom. I love dogs but unfortunately don’t have the time to commit to having my own full time. I would love to spend time with your pup or cat when you need some extra help! Feel free to contact me with any questions. Thanks and I hope to hear from you soon! I’m taking a break from my full time job to do something more laid back, I’ve always loved animals, I have plenty of free time right now! I have a lot of experience talking care of my own cats & dogs! I miss being able to have my own dog in house & would love to hang out & chill, play and or run around with your pet!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Carolina Forest
Great experience with Belkis! She did drop-in visits for my three dogs and was wonderful about keeping me updated. She sent pictures with every visit and had great communication the entire time, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I’d definitely recommend her and will book with her again!
Jody is absolutely amazing! My pups and cat warmed up to her immediately. Super kind to my elderly schnauzer. She was so kind spending time with them and sharing photos of them. Refreshing their water and following feeding instructions. She even vacuumed after cleaning the litter box. Highly recommend
Kimberly is Hands down the greatest there is! She takes the best of care with my fur baby and there’s no one I trust more. From day one she’s been awesome with him ( he’s a picky and judgmental boy lol) whether it’s walking him or playing ball if he’s being stubborn. Thank you a million times 😊

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 Carolina 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!
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 .

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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking.
