“Sketcher did great housesitting our anxious 2 yr old dog and 11 yr old indoor cat. She was good at communicating promptly during booking and during the stay. We came home to happy pets and everything was as expected.”
“Jayda stayed at our home with our pets while we were on vacation. She is wonderful and did an amazing job. We returned to happy pets and a nice clean home. Jayda is very responsible and I would trust her anytime I need a sitter. Thank you, Jayda. Hank and Opal loved spending time with you.”
“We LOVE Gracie! This was our first time ever having a house sitter for our dogs and she did amazing! She kept us updated with pictures of our babies and constantly let me knew how they were doing! Will be rebooking in the future!”
About: I dog sit frequently and therefore have been exposed to a variety of different ages, breeds, and temperaments. I feel very comfortable around dogs and am competent at reading their behavior. I also have previous experience volunteering at a shelter and grew up with 2 family dogs. I currently am in graduate school for Physical Therapy at MUSC, so I have a consistent weekly class schedule, but have evenings and weekends available for your pups! I care for pets by prioritizing consistency, safety, and clear communication with the owner. In both my home and a client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible—this includes feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any specific instructions the owner provides. In a client’s home, I make sure the pet stays comfortable in their familiar environment while also keeping the space clean and secure. I provide regular updates with photos so owners feel reassured while they’re away.
“I feel complete trust in placing my pup, Callie, in Marina’s care. She is caring, responsible, and makes sure that the time spent with Callie is filled with play, walks, and cuddles. Her gentle greeting endeared her to Callie immediately. I plan to use her whenever needed in the future.”
“Caroline is a great pet sitter! She took care of our 2 dogs (one who is a coonhound who is sweet but not the easiest temperament!), our indoor/ outdoor cat and our chickens, goats and barn cats. It’s hard for us to leave our farm for vacation but she was in top of it! She watered my front porch flowers and kept them alive during a heat wave. The house was in immaculate condition and all the pets were in good spirits. I can highly recommend her taking exceptional care of your animals and house!”
“Michelle did an outstanding job taking care of not only my pet but my home. Would recommend and will be contacting her again to take care of my dog which I believe is the highest compliment. Thanks, Michelle!”
“Timothy went above and beyond taking care of our 3 dogs. He sent status updates & photos each day. We felt totally at ease and knew our pups and home were in good hands while we were away.”
About: There has never been a year without pets in my life. They always come first and will receive loving, attentive care as if they were my own babies. I’m a full-time Senior at Clemson University, majoring in Animal Veterinary Science with a pre-vet focus and a biology minor. I’ve dedicated my future to animal care and manage my schedule well to ensure reliable availability! I’ve cared for various pets over 20 years, including a guinea pig, fish, cats, dogs, a bunny, and a turtle! This experience makes me adaptable to different animals and their needs. I’m also comfortable feeding, providing water, and keeping pets entertained!
“Jayda was awesome, we have a dog who stresses out a lot and can’t go anywhere. So it was important to have someone come to the house and stay. We highly recommend her and will use her again.”
“Zoe was amazing !! Sent me so many pictures and updates & gave Vienna so much love. She was very accommodating and flexible with my crazy work schedule and took a lot of stress off my shoulders. Vienna had such a good time. Will definitely be reaching out again for future needs!”
About: Through my work with Battle Buddies, a nonprofit that raises and places service dogs for veterans, I gained valuable experience being around dogs regularly and observing the care, structure, and attention they require. In addition, I’ve cared for dogs belonging to friends, family, and private clients through pet sitting and drop-in visits. As a professional photographer, I also love capturing pets’ personalities and include complimentary photos during our time together! I have a flexible schedule and make pet care a priority. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or extended care, I plan my day to ensure pets get the attention, exercise, and care they need. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible to help their pet feel comfortable and secure. I provide plenty of attention, exercise, fresh food and water, and keep the home clean and respected. I also send regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away.
About: I’ve been caring for animals for years and truly enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. As a longtime equestrian, I gained valuable experience caring for horses, which taught me responsibility, patience, and confidence in handling animals with different temperaments. In addition to caring for horses, I’ve lived with and cared for two cats over the past two years and have experience looking after multiple dogs and puppies. Last year, I house sat for a family with a very energetic dog, making sure they got plenty of exercise, playtime, attention, and companionship while their owners were away. What sets me apart is that I treat every pet as if they were my own. I understand how important routines are, so I carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions if needed, and any special requests to help your pet feel comfortable and secure. Whether your pet loves adventures, playtime, or quiet companionship, my goal is to provide dependable, loving care and give you complete peace of mind while you’re away. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy and naturally make time for in my routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable care, whether that’s walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, or overnight stays. Since I already care for my own cats every day, pet care is a regular part of my life, and I love spending time with animals whenever I can. I’m committed to being dependable, attentive, and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their family is away. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I understand that pets feel most secure in familiar surroundings, so I make sure to follow their normal schedule for meals, walks, playtime, medication (if needed), and any specific instructions from their owners. I also provide plenty of attention, affection, and companionship while making sure their home is respected and cared for. If caring for pets in my own home, I provide a safe, clean, and welcoming environment where they can feel comfortable and relaxed. I always take the time to learn each pet’s personality, needs, and preferences so they receive personalized care. My goal is to make every pet feel loved and cared for while giving owners peace of mind that their furry family member is in good hands.

FAQs for House Sitting - Cateechee
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 889 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Cateechee. 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 Cateechee 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 Cateechee 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 Cateechee 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

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.
