About: I grew up on a farm, so I’ve had the opportunity to work with many different kinds of animals. Since that time, I’ve rescued a few cats and dogs with mental and physical issues. I’ve learned that each animal has their own personality and needs and am happy to provide what they need. I have a flexible schedule. I am able to give your pet the time they need. Whether it’s a potty break, playtime, or some cuddles. I am able to follow instructions. I understand how important it is to keep your pet on a routine, especially when you are not home.
About: Experienced veterinary assistant with a year of clinical practice and a lifelong passion for animal care. Reliable, seasoned pet sitter with extensive experience providing compassionate, professional attention to all kinds of furry friends. As an Animal Science student at Clemson University, I balance my studies with a passion for animal care. My schedule leaves me plenty of time outside of class to provide your pets with the play and attention they need. My year of experience as a veterinary assistant has given me a sharp eye for potential hazards and a deep understanding of canine mischief. You can rest easy knowing I'm well-prepared to keep your pets safe and entertained.
About: With me on board, you're cleared for departure! Lifetime animal lover with decades of hands-on experience caring for pets through every stage of life. I’ve never lived without a pet, and caring for animals isn't just a side job for me, it’s second nature. Over the years, I’ve managed everything from high-energy daily routines to specialized medical care. Having guided three of my own dogs through cancer, I understand how crucial gentle, attentive, and reliable care is when a pet needs extra patience, medication, or comfort. On the flip side, I currently share my home with two rowdy, high-energy Boxers and four cats, so I’m equally at home managing big personalities, high-energy exercise, structured routines, and multi-pet household dynamics. Whether your pet needs structured crate training, engaging enrichment (like stuffed Kongs to keep busy minds occupied), or a patient, calm presence while you're away, I treat every animal in my care with the same dedication, attention, and love I give my own. I work remotely from home, giving me fantastic flexibility throughout the day for daytime drop-ins, walks, and potty breaks. For house sitting, I am fully available on weekends. During weekday house sits, my remote work structure allows me to split my remote workday between your home and mine so I can pop back to care for my own pets while giving yours plenty of dedicated time, attention, and evening companionship. I prioritize maintaining your pet’s normal routine to make sure they feel safe, calm, and loved. Whether providing care in your home or popping in for a check-in, I am extremely attentive to security, door safety, and personalized needs, including strict crate protocols, medication, or specific feeding schedules. I treat every home with complete respect and treat every pet with the same dedicated care I give my own.
About: I have always grown up with pets: 3 dogs, 1 cat, and a beared dragon. I have helped train a puppy, cared for a dying senior dog, and everything in between. I have experience with pets who have high energy, anxiety, dietary needs, and physical disabilities. Family, friends, and neighbors have trusted me to pet sit, drop in, provide over night care, and walk their dogs. I have worked at a dog groomer for over 2 years, which has given me experience with a wide variety of animals and their temperaments. I’m a full time student at Clemson University who has most afternoons/ evenings and weekend free to care for your pets! I am studying wildlife conservation so spending time with animals is one of my favorite things to do! Following instructions, I can care for your pet however you direct me to. I am comfortable taking your dog for walks/ hikes, playing indoors and outdoors, dosing medications, keeping up with training, and providing all the love and comfort your pet will need while you are away!
About: I have been on Rover for over a year now and have fallen in love with pet sitting! I have several repeat clients who I love. I have always had dogs in my house and I am currently raising my puppy Roy! I feel as though pets have more feelings than humans so I make sure to give them special attention! I am a full time student at Clemson University and work a part time job so when i’m away from those i always make sure to spend time playing with my dog and taking care of him. I love to be around and let him hangout with me anytime I can since he’s so sweet and funny! I typically find myself watching a few pets every month! I typically work a few days out of the week and 4-6 hour shifts! These 4-6 hour shifts are either 10am-3pm or 3pm-9pm! I always give pets as much attention as they will let me. I feel as though feedings schedules and daily walks and attention are necessary for animals. I also like to make sure they have clean food and water and plenty of it! I also make sure to pay special attention to their body language and can change my routines or anything they may need to make them more comfortable.
“Ava is an absolute lifesaver and an incredibly sweet person. We had a day trip planned, but my wife was quite sick. We almost canceled, but my wife braved it out and we went anyway. We ended up running late, and Ava called to check in on our return time. When I explained the situation—and that I thought I might even have to take my wife straight to the hospital—Ava didn't hesitate to help. She immediately told us it was no problem, offered to stay longer, and even volunteered to keep the key so she could come back the next morning to feed our dog and cat and take them out. Her flexibility and genuine compassion turned a stressful day into a manageable one. Her parents should be incredibly proud of the person she is. Five stars—we cannot recommend her highly enough!”
“She was amazing with my 4 fur babies. They warmed up to her very fast and she was able to care for them and follow their routine. She sent me lots of pictures and kept me posted if they ate. When I got home the house was just how I left it. Definitely will be working with her again!”
About: Hi! My name is Lillie Sabo, and I’m currently a student at Clemson University! I’m excited to offer pet-sitting services to families looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive to look after their pets while they’re away. I absolutely love spending time with animals and know how important it is to find someone who will treat your pets like their own. I have two dogs of my own and it is very important to me to give others pets the care and love I want mine to receive while I am gone! My goal is to make sure your furry friends feel happy, comfortable, and loved every time they’re in my care! I am currently a student at Clemson University that is home for the summer! My schedule over the summer is pretty open besides vacations but other than that I can be available for all your needs! In my home our pets have a fenced in yard, water to access at all times of the day, they are fed at specific times of the day, and treats are their favorite so they get a few throughout the day! Your pets will receive the same love and care that my dogs at home receive for sure!
“Zoe is incredible! She took great care of our dog (and home) for a week while we were on vacation, and we got lots of photo updates throughout the trip, and we returned to a clean house and calm and happy pup! Highly recommend!”

“Kim is very personable and easy to connect with. She remembered details about my dog’s care She also watched my house and informed me when my water feature stopped working. She loves dogs and it was clear that she loved mine. Pictures while I was away helped me cope with being away. The house and my dog were both in great shape when I returned after I was away for a week. She was very flexible with scheduling and even followed up to make sure that I didn’t need her to check back in — in case we had a flight delay. She will definitely be my first choice moving forward.”

“Laycie was absolutely wonderful with our pup, Loki! She was incredibly communicative throughout her stay and sent us daily pictures, which made our day to see how much fun he was having! Laycie was also respectful of our space and left everything incredibly clean and tidy. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and communicative sitter—we would absolutely book with her again!”
About: I’ve been taking care of family pets my whole life. My sisters, grandparents, and cousins all trust me to feed, bathe, and walk their dogs, even when they are difficult. I look forward to meeting new furry friends through Rover! I’m currently going to school at Clemson University so I have a semi flexible schedule when it comes to pet care on the weekdays. I have my own car that I can use to get to client homes or take pups wherever they need to go. I can’t wait to start helping out some wonderful owners! I am very adaptable to different environments so whatever directions given to me I can follow. I plan to give regular walks to dogs and give them lots of love and pets. If there’s a yard, I’d love to play some fetch or let your dog run around if it’s fenced. I will also follow any feeding schedule given. I appreciate you trusting me with your beloved doggos!
“It was wonderful to have Kyle take care of Stormie, we knew when we got home & Stormie was so happy that Kyle had done a great job. Kyle is great at communicating and following care instructions for Stormie. He is also a very compassionate care giver and it shows when he meets your pet. When Kyle would leave for an errand he would let us know and always checked in during the day to let us know that everything was fine. Stormie and I would definitely hire Kyle again”

FAQs for House Sitting - Cateechee
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 857 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 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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
