“We are so happy to have had Belkis care for our pup. We did the Myrtle Beach Marathon and needed help with our dog while we were running. Belkis came the day before to meet Toby and find our camp spot as we were also camping at the beach. She was wonderful with him and so accommodating to us. I highly recommend using Belkis for your pet care needs!”
“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 😊”
About: I have over 30 years of experience in pet care with not only my own pets but also family and friends. My wife and I enjoy walking dogs and spending time with all kinds of animals including reptiles, rabbits, ferrets and pretty much anything with four legs! Birds and fish too! I am retired so I'm pretty flexible and looking forward to filling my time with pet care. I can't think of anything else I would rather do with my newly found extra time. MeLessa works remotely so she has the flexibility to help and is available for house sitting even while working if that is something you are open to. We make a great team! We are happy to follow in home care instructions for pet sitting or house sitting in your home. We won't be keeping dogs or cats in my own home but would consider other types of in home care for other animals like small reptiles.
“I knew I chose the right person to watch my cat when I met Julia. She is kind and very responsive. She showed a great deal of love and care for my cat. I will certainly use her again for future sittings.”
“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: Animal lover and dependable pet sitter who treats every pet like family. Experienced with animals of all sizes and personalities, focused on safe, loving care, walks, playtime, and keeping pet parents updated every step of the way. I am Currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to drop in and spend time with your pet, whether it is a walk or to just spend time with them! I care for every pet as if they were my own by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special instructions.
“Jessica was terrific. First time we've had a drop-in sitter for our Louie, which is, of course, a bit of concern at the beginning. But Rover was easy to work with, Jessica visited before her first visit, Louie was happy, we were cofortable. We then left town for a week, and the process with Jessica was while we were away was great. Needed a couple of scheduling changes along the way, which we handled quickly via text. Pictures were sent by Jessica and by Rover during the visit after each visit. Will absolutely use Jessica when help is needed, and grateful for a really nice new friend who loves Louie and makes leaving him for a few days no problem at all.”
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.
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: I have had dogs growing up during my childhood, as well as farm animals, bunnies, etc. I have dog sat for many people for 6 years now. Including my family, friends, babysitting families and others. I have been trusted for over nights, walking, car rides, feedings, administrating medication, drop ins, play dates, basic training (sit, shake) etc. I have experience with up to 4 dogs at a time ranging from xsmall to large. I love dogs and would love to possibly meet your fur babies! I love to make few fur babies feel taken care of, loved and protected when with a new person! I am currently a senior at CCU! My schedule this semester is very laid back, allowing me to visit very often and stay overnight easily if needed. MW i have one class from 4-5:15. T, TH i have 3 classes 9:25-1:30. Friday, no class. I do not have a full-time or part-time job. I babysit for two families in the surrounding areas whenever needed. I care for pets by following their normal routine and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I provide walks, food, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of attention. For overnight stays, I make sure they are cared for throughout the day and night while keeping the client’s home clean and secure. I will always send pictures you pictures of your fur babies so you know your pet is getting taken care of and is happy!

I’m passionate about making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Your animals are family, and I’ll treat them like my own!

My apartment complex also has two dog parks, plus an even bigger dog park just down the street! Your fur babies are welcome to make themselves at home!

In my home, they’re family, and they’ll be treated like it! 🐶🐱💕 My goal is to make every pet feel safe, happy, and right at home while you’re away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, your fur babies will receive plenty of love and attention
About: I have grown up around animals- I am often my parents’ pet sitter. I bond with animals (all types); which is why I have a biology degree. I have had a dog since I was three, and my mom currently has a senior dog that I sometimes take care of. She also has a dog with high anxiety that I take care of. I have a lot of friends with cats that ask me to housesit when they are away. Now- I have a lot more experience babysitting humans than pets for money, but I still know how to take care of the non-human babies too :) I am currently in graduate school, making sure the water nearby is safe! However, this eats up my time a lot. Since I am free on weekends, I can spend whole days with your pet; I can make sure they are active and well looked after! On weekdays, I can do the same for the evenings! However, during the day Mon-Fri, I will be extremely busy, so keep that in mind if you book me then :) Depending on what the pet needs, I am willing to take them out on walks, feed them, play with them, and give them lots of love! For senior pets, I can make sure they take medication and any other special service that they might need!
“Olivia was great! She came for an hour to feed and take out the dogs. Both of them are super high energy and she was able to keep up with it getting overwhelmed. Reggie had an accident and she had no issue cleaning up the mess! We don’t have to leave them often but are glad we had Olivia to pop in when we did!”

I’ll keep your pet supervised, give them plenty of attention, and treat your home and your pet with the same care and respect I would want for my own.
About: The house I grew up in always had dogs around, we used to train them for shows so I have an idea of how to keep pets safe and out of trouble, I have experience with dogs as tiny as a dachshund and as big as a boston mastiff so i’m prepared for anything. I am currently a student at HGTC working on getting my degree in ultrasound tech. I also work part time at the Applebee’s as a server. While all that seems like a lot I actually do get more free time then I expected and I would love to spend that time watching your pets. I like to treat every animal as if it was my own, giving them the same love and respect I would my pets. Whatever you decide is best for how you would like me to watch your animals is how I will do it, it takes a lot of trust to find a sitter so it’s important to me that I follow any guidelines given.
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.

About: Back in 2022 I had one girl ask if I can watch her dog and I told her of course I love dogs and then after that I had so many more people asked me after I told them that I watch dogs and cats and ever since then I absolutely loved what I did. Seeing different types of pets with different personalities made me love it more. So I work throughout the week and I wanted to start only on the weekends first just to get myself through the door but maybe in the future I can make this a full time job Mostly a lot of the animals I took care of I got to be apart of there homes all of them so I got to stay over take care of them play with them take them on long walks feed them and just show them lots and lots of love and attention cause that’s what they need. Every animal is different so whatever the client tells me I will follow instructions through and I love to send lots of pictures of there animals to clients to let them know they are safe and in good hands

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Carolina Forest
Shana is amazing. She met both myself and my husband at a community location prior to setting up the meet and greet in-house visit. During every communication she responded timely and professionally. We were somewhat nervous having an "outsider" come into our home and this was the first time we used Rover. The site was recommended to us by several people and because of Shana's other positive references we thought we'd give her a try. We could not be any happier with Shana ❤️ She sent us daily progress reports and took multiple photos of our kitties, their food & water dishes, cleaned litter box, etc. She always let us know when she was en route and always let us know when she was leaving. So responsive. We will not hesitate to reach out again for upcoming trips, and we absolutely recommend Shana to others!
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!
Amy was absolutely wonderful! We are new to the area so I wasn’t sure who would take care of our cat pumkin . From the moment I met Amy I was sure that I made the right choice. She was kind, and reassured me that my cat was going to be well cared for. She updated me with cute pictures and information about Pumkin. She took great care of him, and even made sure to use his favorite toy at playtime. We will definitely be using Amy again.
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 😊

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Carolina Forest is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $33 per visit. 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 October 2026, there are 696 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Carolina Forest. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.

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.
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.
