About: I grew up in a home with three dogs, so caring for pups of all sizes and personalities feels like second nature to me. Whether your dog loves long walks, snuggles, or playtime, I know how to tune in to what makes them feel happy and safe. I live on James Island within easy walking distance of parks and dog-friendly paths, and I also have a clean yard that’s perfect for supervised outdoor play. With no other pets in the home, your dog gets my full attention and a calm, comfortable space to relax. I’d love to give your pup the same care and affection I grew up giving my own! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I can provide early-morning walks or drop-ins before work, lunch break check-ins/walks, and I’m home by 5 p.m., so evening walks, drop-ins, and playtime are always an option. Fridays and weekends are wide open for more flexible care. Your pet’s routine is important to me, and I’m happy to work around the schedule that keeps them happiest. I make safety and comfort my top priorities, whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in yours. I live in a very walkable neighborhood close to several parks, which makes safe, enjoyable outings easy. At home, I have a secure yard perfect for quick supervised potty breaks. I follow each pet’s individual routine and am comfortable using crates if that’s what your dog is used to or feels safest in. My goal is always to create a calm, structured environment where your pet feels secure, understood, and well cared for

About: I have had my own pets for as long as I remember and unfortunately they still live at my childhood home. I cared for my dog and cat growing up, but unfortunately do not have any pets of my own, yet! I love to go on walks and would be the perfect buddy for any dog! I am also very organized! I am a teacher full time, and get home early during the week. I also am able to be free on weekends! I live an active life so I like to stay busy, and having a furry friend is a nice addition! I have a dog park where I live and a great walking trail. I have a lot of indoor space for a pet to be happy!

About: I have been around animals of all kinds since a young age and love interacting with pets. Many of my friends and family members have relied on me to stay overnight, drop in during the day, and play with their dogs and cats to ensure they are enriched with play time and are well taken care of. I love fur babies of all sizes and breeds! I grew up with 2 large Rottweilers Bear Puppy and Katie. 3 Shih Tzu’s Molly, Alley and Cash and 1 miniature schnauzer Nicholas. I’m currently working part time in Downtown Charleston. Mondays and Wednesday I have more flexibility before 1:00 pm because I work remotely. Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday I am available for any lunchtime walks, play dates, and all the fur baby love! While I wish I could bring your pets to my home, I do not have the proper safety precautions for doggies and my kitties are timid of visiting pets, so I want to respect their home. When it comes to going into the pets homes I will ensure that all dogs remain on their leash while on walks away from the home and in the yards of their homes unless there is proper fencing to keep them safe. And same goes for inside/ outside kitties. I want all pets I interact with to feel safe in their environment and comfortable with me caring and interacting with them!

About: I grew up in Rochester, NY, surrounded by pets, and have years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. My family has a Golden Retriever, Rocky, and a Portuguese Water Dog, Piper, so I’m very comfortable caring for different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. Since moving to Charleston, I’ve also helped care for friends’ dogs, including an Australian Shepherd, Memphis, and a French Bulldog, Bella. I’ve handled check-ins, walks, and general care, so I’m comfortable adjusting to different breeds, energy levels, personalities, and routines. Having cared for pets at different stages of life, I understand that every animal has its own personality and routine. I’m dependable and attentive, and I'll follow your instructions closely while giving your pet the same care and attention I would give my own. I currently work part-time, around 22 hours per week, which gives me plenty of flexibility for pet care throughout the week. My work schedule varies, so I’m often available for walks, drop-in visits, and other care during both weekdays and weekends. I’m happy to coordinate with you ahead of time to make sure your pet’s normal schedule and routine are covered. I provide care in your pet’s own home, where they can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I’ll follow any instructions you provide for feeding, walks, playtime, litter boxes, medications, or other daily needs. I’m respectful of both your pet and your home, and I’ll make sure doors, gates, leashes, and other safety measures are secure during every visit.

She kept me updated before she went over, while she was there, and after she left, and let me know that she was free for future visits too.

About: I genuinely love dogs and spending time with them. I enjoy going on walks, getting outside, and making sure each dog gets the attention and care they need. I’m patient, dependable, and always try to make pets feel comfortable and happy while their owners are away. I have lived with up to 3 dogs at one point so I have years of experience in caring for them. I am a dental student, so I can often be available at random times during the day when my clinic schedule allows. I am always free during lunch, but I can have availability if a patient cancels! I have no dogs of my own but live in a large house with plenty of room. I have a front and backyard for bathroom breaks and live in a quiet area of downtown. I am close to great places to walk like the battery and colonial lake!

About: I was raised by a cat mom, so I grew up in a house full of cats, so naturally they were my first love. Then one day I met a Great Dane, and became completely obsessed with dogs! I’ve had two rescue Dobermans, a Rottweiler, and now my almost 9-year-old retired racing Greyhound, Frank. Along the way, I’ve also cared for all kinds of dogs, including other Greyhounds, Labs, Poodles, Mini Schnauzers, and Shih Tzus. Basically, I love them all—the big ones, the little ones, the quirky ones and everything in between! Frank has taught me just how different each dog can be. He is the most confident scaredy-cat I’ve ever met, believes the floor is lava, thinks stairs are an absolute no, loves long walks on the beach and a good breeze through his hair, and believes any time is treat time. 😂 He has definitely taught me patience, understanding, and how to pay attention to the little things that make each dog feel comfortable and safe. My goal is for your pet to feel loved, understood, and completely at home while they’re with me. ❤️ I work as an independent hair stylist in the West Ashley area so I have control over my schedule, so for things planned with time I am pretty flexible for what you need. Some of my work days vary from 4-9 hours, if anything is booked last minute but I am happy to schedule out time for your pet instead of taking an extra hair client! My boi sleeps about 20 hours a day and stays in his bed all day long with a few stretches here and there. We walk for 20 minutes, twice a day and get treated before long naps. And any other waking moment includes just hanging out on the floor while we chill. Maybe a 45 second play time after dinner. If your dog needs a chill dog, Frank is the chillest. I'd request that any boarding in my home must be crate trained for any day time work hours, otherwise they can be out as much as they want! They can even sleep in the bed with me and my partner if they prefer! Frank does not walk up the stairs, so he stays in bed downstairs. We do not have a fenced-in backyard, but we do have a beautiful safe-for-dogs neighborhood with tons of grass paths as well as paved paths. We can go for a walk and watch the deer in the woods and the egrets in the canals. It's a great place here! There is a small, always empty fenced-in dog park within walking distance from us if your baby needs its freedom for bathroom time! 😂

About: Hello! My name is Croft and I am WFH Marketing Professional & full-time animal lover. I am a Charleston native. I have grown up raising and being around 4-5 dogs at any given time - currently have a mixed baby of my own. I love to exercise with dogs! I am a beach bum and avid surfer so if your pup likes the beach, I would love to take them. I will run, walk, play with, and also lay around lazily with dogs! I can administer medications to your pup, having also worked with large animal vets with my horses. I live downtown but will travel for overnights. I love the outdoors and find animal company to be the best company. I cannot wait to meet your furry friend :) I currently work from home with only a few site visits a week. I own my house and have a backyard as well as a park pretty close by. My schedule varies, depending on how I like to get outside, but I am only ever away from my home for an hour or two at a time. I have a fenced in yard and a very sweet, seven year-old boy dog who loves company. I am very involved in the community and if your dog likes to get out, I would love to take them to the dog park or the beach or even to my friendly gym!

About: Hi! My name is Ariana and I just graduated from CofC. I work full time as a barista right now. I absolutely love dogs and cats and would 100% have some if my housing allowed me to. Growing up I took care of 5 dogs, lots of cats, and a bird! On top of that I have pet sit and house sit for family friends and neighbors for about 12 years. Since moving to Charleston I haven’t been able to get a dog/cat because of where I live so I am always very eager to help out with your animals! If interested don’t hesitate to reach out! Thank you and I hope to meet you and your furry friends soon! I typically work mid shifts or closing shifts so my mornings are free. I don’t work Mondays, Thursdays or Fridays too so I have plenty of time to spend time with your sweet animals! I always will make sure to follow my client’s specific instructions for their animal. I want to ensure comfort for the animal and their owner.

About: Hi! I have been taking care of both my furry friends and others for about 5 years. I have two cats that are 3 and 16 years old. I have also had dogs my entire life and have continued to dog walk for others along with participating in the Paws Around Town program through the Charleston animal society. I love animals and am currently looking to make a little extra money, so I figured this would be a great fit! I work throughout the day and am usually available for morning and night visits. If you’re looking for someone to do drop-in visits or take your dog for a walk, reach out and we can see if it’s a match! I working throughout the day and am available for morning and night visits. Depending on the week, I may have a more open availability to drop in! I have two cats and I live in a studio apartment, so unfortunately I cannot have more animals at my place. However, I am willing to travel to take care of your furry friends.

Brynn did an absolutely amazing job taking care of my dog, Stevie, while I was on vacation. She made sure Stevie got outside on time, took her on plenty of walks, and gave her lots of love and attention while I was away. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Stevie was in such caring and capable hands. Brynn was always punctual, incredibly dependable, and communicated with me throughout the entire trip. She kept me updated, responded quickly to messages, and made it easy to relax knowing everything was going well at home. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after, and Stevie absolutely adored her. I couldn’t recommend Brynn more highly. If you’re looking for someone who is trustworthy, reliable, communicative, and truly treats your pet like family, Brynn is the person to call!

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Charleston

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Charleston is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $28 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 2,567 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Charleston. 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.

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 Charleston 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 .

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.

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 .

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Charleston with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Charleston. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% can help with daily exercise

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.

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.
