“Sarah did a great job of checking on my cat while we were out of town for a few days. My car recently lost her brother, so isn’t used to being totally alone; it made me feel much better knowing Sarah would be checking on her and making sure she was happy and safe!”
“We had a bit of an unusual Rover request, and Lena was absolutely wonderful! We’re working with a trainer to help our shy dog, Bonzo, feel more comfortable with new people, and we needed someone he had never met to come over so we could practice having a “stranger” in the house. Lena was so kind, patient, and completely willing to follow our trainer’s instructions and go at Bonzo’s pace. They made the whole experience incredibly easy and were so sweet with him. We’re very grateful they were willing to help us out and would absolutely recommend them!”
“Zackary was a fantastic dog sitter. Super responsive, understood all my requests and my dog's needs. He went above and beyond, staying longer than he needed to, making sure she was having the best time possible, and sending great updates with detailed feedback for each visit. Highly recommend!”
“Claire was super helpful with navigating some unexpected situations while caring for my animals! She was on time, stayed for the full time, and from the photos it seemed like my dog and cat were so happy to see her!”
“Janessy is very easy to communicate with and did a great job checking on my cats while I was on vacation. I got daily pictures and updates. I would definitely book with Janessy again!”
About: I am a former veterinary technician (nurse) that loves all animals! I have previous experience as a professional dog walker/pet sitter. I worked in the emergency department of multiple well established veterinary hospitals and general practices. I can assist with special needs animals and administering medications as needed. I have a small dog (14 year old spayed female Shetland sheepdog). I live on Folly Beach, so pups can expect beach walks and fun days out at all of the pet friendly establishments here (with permission!). I have had pets for years, so animal care is not only a part of my daily routine but my overall lifestyle revolves around them! I have lots of flexibility and time in my schedule so they will get lots of attention, walks and loving! I am very attentive and loving towards your pets as if they are my own. I am excellent at reading their body language/energy to make sure they are not stressed or uncomfortable and to vary my interactions with them based on their needs first and foremost. I am very clean and tend to leave places in better shape than they were when I showed up so you might get some light cleaning done too! :)
“Margherita is awesome. She is very kind and seems to very care for our dog Otis!! She is a great communicator and provides fun updates and pictures about her visit. She also took initiative to help train and work with our dog to work on his leash behavior! 10/10 would recommend.”
“Isaiah was great! He was reliable and got along great with my cats. I ended up fostering another cat temporarily, and Isaiah did a great job with that cat too. I’ll definitely hire him again when I go out of town for New Years!”
About: I have taken care of friends and families pets when they go out of town. I spend time not only letting them take a potty break but going on walks or running around the yard to get energy out. I work three nights a week so I am available every afternoon and most mornings and nights. I am usually up by early afternoon on days I do work so I have plenty of time to help with pet care. I have cats and a dog of my own. I think it is important to not only just let the dogs out for a potty break but to play with them and/or walk them to get some energy out as well. I am always happy to help with cats as well.
“Caroline is the best. Our flight was delayed and we wouldn’t be home in time to feed our cat. She was able to help us out! Percy is always happy when we return home. We love the photos and videos that she sends while we are away.”
About: Providing drop ins, dog walks and overnight stays! Overnight stays are my favorite. I am currently serving in a cafe 4 days out of the week. I am able to do breakfast and dinner walks and feeding and multiple drop ins on my off days. I have been dog sitting for 20 years now for family friends and a small network of Charleston locals across Folly, West Ashley, downtown, Monks Corner, Mt P and IOP. And, had clients in Oklahoma & New York! I am passionate about providing good care for your pups and going the extra mile in communication during our time together. Caring for your pups is one of my greatest joys in life. I am working part time in a cafe currently. Typically have early morning availability, mid afternoon and overnight availability. I love overnight stays with pups. I follow instructions provided I.E. special diets for dogs and requests to walk the dog. And, maintain a clean space in your home at all times. And, bring my own cleaning gear.
About: Dogs have always had a special place in my heart, and I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I’m dependable, patient, attentive, and happy to follow your dog’s normal routine, including walks, meals, potty breaks, playtime and plenty of affection. I know every dog has their own personality, comfort level and little quirks, and I’ll take the time to get to know yours. I’ll treat your dog with the same love, care and attention I would want for my own. My schedule varies, which gives me flexibility for walks, drop-in visits and pet sitting throughout the week. I’m happy to work with your dog’s normal routine and will communicate clearly about my availability so you always know your pup is covered. Your dog’s safety and comfort come first. I’ll carefully follow your instructions, keep doors, gates and leashes secure, and respect your home and your dog’s normal routine. I’m patient with dogs who need extra time to warm up, and I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, affection and care while you’re away.
About: I’m a huge animal lover with years of pet sitting experience! I grew up with 3 dogs, 3 cats, and a parrot, and I’ve cared for animals of all sizes from Great Danes to Chihuahuas. I have experience with energetic puppies and kittens as well as senior dogs and cats who need extra patience and care. I also have years of ongoing experience with birds! I have a conure of my own and have cared for other birds, so I understand their unique personalities and care needs. I’d love the opportunity to care for your fur or feathered baby! I’m currently finishing school online, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet the care, attention, and love they deserve! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your baby, so I’m happy to provide references and frequent updates to give you peace of mind. I am always willing to accommodate to each pet’s routine, needs, and home environment, and I’m happy to accommodate any preferences or instructions that help you and your pet feel comfortable.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Folly Beach
Sarah provided drop-in visits for my pup, Kevin and she was fantastic! She was always extremely prompt if I had any questions about how things were going and provided pictures at every visit. Kevin can be a little anxious so I’m always a little nervous about leaving him, but I came home to a happy dog. I will definitely use Sarah again in the future!

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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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.

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 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.
