“Jeffery is certainly the most trustworthy walker and sitter! I trusted him enough to leave Zeek with him for over three weeks while I was on a work trip abroad… So grateful to have him, and you would be too!”
“Haley took care of our 5 cats and 1 dog during an overnight visit. All of our kids seemed happy and relaxed when we got home. Our extremely shy cats even came out shortly after she arrived -- this means they felt very safe with her. We were impressed; she has a demeanor that makes pets feel very safe. She took great care of everyone, and also gave medication to one of our cats. She sent several photos of our kids, which we appreciated.”
About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs since I was in middle school and have experience with dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m comfortable feeding, walking, playing with, and giving lots of attention to pets. I’m responsible, patient, and dependable, and I’ll treat your dog like they’re my own! I’m currently a full-time student at USC, so I typically only have about two in-person classes each day. Outside of school and my social life, I have plenty of flexibility and time to give your pet the care, attention, and love they deserve! I live in a pet-free apartment, so I’m unable to have pets stay overnight at my home. However, I’m happy to care for pets in their own home and can follow any safety instructions or routines you provide.
About: I’ve cared for everything from Chihuahuas to English Mastiffs! We’ve trained them as puppies and cared for them to their last days. They are family. I’m currently working as a part time substitute in Lexington 1. I make my own schedule during the school year. I love teaching special education. I have a large fenced yard. We divided it up into two sides. We also have a huge dog house with air conditioning and beds.
“Fantastic sitter! I reached out last minute and she was very responsive! My pets loved her and so did I! Would highly recommend. She’s very communicative and upfront which I greatly appreciate. She took great care of my pets and I will be hiring her again!”
About: I have had pets my whole life. I currently have two cats. In college I worked on a farm and cared for cattle, chickens, goats, pigs, and alpaca. I am currently a zoo keeper and have been in the field for three years. I have cared for reptiles, small mammals, some birds, and larger hoof stock. I have experience giving medications, preparing special diets, training, and observing animal health/behavior. I have worked with young and senior animals. My weekends are Tuesday and Wednesday, so anytime of day I am free. On days that I work I am able to care for your pets before or after. If needed I can also check on your pets during lunch. I am great at following instructions. When going into your home or staying the night I will provide the best care I can. I will make sure to respect your home and your pets!
“Stephanie is great!! We have a shy baby that takes a while to warm up to people but Stephanie was getting kisses from her after 2 days. We will definitely rebook with her!”

They are allowed to hangout on the couches as well! I have pet sat for multiple people in my life and always make sure to lock up while entering or exiting the house! I understand 100% that you work hard for your home & I strive to keep it the way you left it.
“Emily is AMAZING!!! We were in Charleston for our son and daughter-in-law’s wedding. Our baby girl is NEVER left alone and is just under a year old. Emily took EXCELLENT care of our Lilli! I received text updates and photos from Emily. She walked and played with Lilli as if Lilli was her own pup!!! The second day Emily came to play with Lilli she was SO EXCITED!! That speaks volumes!! If we are ever in Charleston again with a need for pet sitting, Emily will definitely be our pet sitter. Thank You Emily!”
About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my patience, dependability, and genuine love for animals. I understand that every pet has its own personality, needs, and routine, and I always do my best to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. Whether it's going on walks, playing, feeding, or simply providing companionship, I am dedicated to giving each pet the attention and care they deserve. I am also very responsible, attentive to detail, and great at following instructions, so pet owners can feel confident knowing their furry friends are in good hands! Im currently in school so I am available all day during the weekend Friday, Saturday and Sunday, but only after 4pm on Mondays and Wednesdays When caring for pets in a client's home, I make it a priority to keep them comfortable by following their normal routines and schedules. I ensure they are fed on time, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and receive lots of attention and affection. I also make sure their environment stays clean and safe. I understand how important it is for pets to feel comfortable while their owners are away, so I treat every home and pet with the same care, respect, and responsibility I would my own. I am happy to follow any specific instructions or routines to make sure each pet receives the best care possible.
“Syd did a great job taking care of our fur babies while we were out of town. Is he sent lots of pics and updates. I was able to relax and enjoy my time away knowing they were well cared for and in good hands! Would definitely use her again and would recommend.”
About: I’ve grown up around pups all my life, and have a fur baby of my own! I also have been a dog groomer for about 5 years so dogs have been a part of my daily life for quite some time! During the day I work at the grooming salon and usually have free time after 3:30. Occasionally I may stay an hour or two later depending on how busy the day was! I’m free on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and every other Sunday! I strive to be very attentive, and can accommodate any way I can popping in and out for your fur babies! I can also take trips to grab items, food, or anything else that may be needed!
“Sally did a great job taking care of our sweet boy (and our house)! I'm somewhat of a neat freak and she didn't question any of the house rules and the place looked as tidy as it did when we left. Most importantly, we felt comfortable leaving our 10-year old dog with her, especially as we were worried to leave him alone after his brother passed recently. (He's been extra needy.) We highly recommend her and hope to be able to book her again. THANK YOU, Sally!!”
About: Hi! My name is Lyndsey, and I’ve been working professionally with dogs since 2017 as a full-time dog groomer. Caring for animals is something I do every day, and I have experience handling pets of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities. From energetic puppies to senior pets who need a little extra patience, I understand that every animal has unique needs. I currently share my home with both dogs and cats, so caring for pets is a big part of my daily life. My professional grooming experience has taught me how to safely handle nervous, shy, excited, and high-energy pets while helping them feel comfortable and secure. For drop-in visits and house sitting, I can provide feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medication administration (if needed), litter box cleaning, and plenty of attention and affection. I understand how important routines are to pets, and I do my best to keep them comfortable while their owners are away. I work full-time as a dog groomer Monday through Friday during daytime hours. Because of my schedule, I am best suited for morning visits, evening visits, overnight stays, weekend care, and holiday care. I always communicate clearly with pet parents and provide updates so you can feel confident your pets are receiving excellent care.

My top skills include creating a calm and reassuring environment, using a gentle and patient approach, and always being responsible and safety-focused. I'm kind, empathetic, and attentive, and I always treat every pet like my own. You can trust that your pet will be safe, happy, and well cared for with me.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Cayce
Jeffrey was fantastic! I was nervous going out of town for the first time since we adopted our new puppy, since our other two dogs were still adjusting to having another pup around the house. Jeffrey provided great updates and make me feel reassured the whole time. Highly recommend!
Cody was wonderful! He watched my dogs and cats for three days while I was away on a business trip, and I felt very comfortable knowing they were in good hands. One of my cats needed medication and some extra care while I was gone, and Cody did a great job making sure he received everything he needed. He spent time playing outside with my dogs, was very flexible, and kept in great communication with me throughout the trip. He was also incredibly nice about cleaning up any little messes the animals made while I was away, which I really appreciated. With multiple pets, I know there can be a lot to keep up with, and Cody was dependable, attentive, and easy to work with. I’m so grateful for his help and would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!
Sarah is an excellent dog and house sitter! She gave updates during the week with pictures and replied quickly whenever I have had to reach out. I came home to a relaxed , happy dog and a clean well cared for home- best way to return from a vacation! I will definitely book her again for future stays !!

The average cost of House Sitting in Cayce is $31 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $24 and $45 per night.

As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Cayce 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 Cayce 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 Cayce 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.

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.
