“Sarah was awesome! She came and met Bear before sitting, which we really appreciated as first time Rover users. Best was spoiled the whole time we were gone, and Sarah was always in communication with us and updated with tons of pictures. Highly recommend and will 10000% have her as a sitter again. Thank you, Sarah!”

“Huiying is the sweetest caretaker! She leaves thoughtful, helpful notes about what Ishi’s enjoying or sneaking into. She responds quickly and clearly. It's apparent he looks forward to seeing her!”


“Mia stepped up big time while I was deployed to Antarctica and I could not be more thankful for her! She watched my cats for almost 4 months and I received pictures every day as well as notes about how they were doing. THANK YOU SO MUCH MIA!!”
“Rebecca is the best cat sitter I’ve had since moving to Charleston. She was very communicative and both of my kitties loved her. Will definitely be booking again soon!”


“Morgan took amazing care of our cat while we were gone for 2 weeks! She was very patient with him to gain his trust and eventually he loved her! I felt that he was in very safe hands :)”

“Lisa took really good care of my cats and always sent me pictures and updates. When anything was out of the ordinary at the house, she also let me know. I would love to have her take care of them again.”

“Ella did a great job caring for our 3 cats. One of my cats is old and requires a little bit of special care, I was very pleased that she followed the care instructions (which are very specific) to the letter. I'll definitely re-book when needed. Thanks again Ella!”

“Carolynn was absolutely amazing with my cats and made me feel so much better about leaving them for the first time. Her notes and pictures from each visit were great and she even took out the recycling without me asking! I will definitely use her again.”

“Michelle did a great job and was very friendly. I felt confident my cats were getting what they needed and will happily contact Michelle again for her help.”

About: We live in Tanner Plantation with our three cats and three dogs. As lifelong animal lovers and pet owners, we understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. Whether you have a playful pup or a shy cat, we'll provide loving, reliable care and keep you updated every step of the way. We've cared for pets with a wide range of medical needs, dietary restrictions, and unique routines. From administering medication and following specialized feeding protocols to accommodating quirky preferences, we're committed to providing the same attentive care your pets receive at home. I'll be handling most visits during the week, while my husband joins me for meet-and-greets and serves as a backup when needed. Together, we provide dependable care for both dogs and cats, treating every pet like a member of the family. Our retriever mix, Richie, has megaesophagus, myasthenia gravis, and cancer. He eats all of his meals in a Bailey chair (think doggy high chair!) and requires medication multiple times a day. Caring for Richie has made us highly attentive to health monitoring, medication schedules, and specialized feeding requirements. Our coonhound, Joanie, takes daily medication for anxiety, giving us experience providing calm, patient care for pets who need extra support. Our German Shepherd, Nami, reminds us that every pet has their own quirks. She refuses to eat breakfast anywhere but her kennel and insists on eating her afternoon meal in the office while listening to emo music. Yes, really! 🖤🎵🐶 We're also dedicated cat people and understand that cats often need a different approach than dogs: patience, respect for routines, and attention to subtle changes in behavior, appetite, and litter box habits. Belle, our orange tabby, is convinced she's one of the dogs, while Jane and Lizzie, our mischievous Oreo twins, keep life entertaining with their talent for stealing household items and hiding them in their favorite boxes. Living with three cats has taught us the importance of earning a cat's trust, respecting their boundaries, and maintaining the routines that help them feel safe and comfortable. From complex medical care to honoring each pet's unique personality and routine, we believe every animal deserves patience, attention, and lots of love. ❤️🐾 Pet care is already a central part of our daily routine. As pet parents of six rescue animals, our days revolve around feeding schedules, walks, medication administration, playtime, litter box cleaning, and making sure each pet gets the individual attention they need. Because we are accustomed to caring for pets with unique personalities, medical needs, and special routines, adding drop-in visits fits naturally into our schedule. We currently have availability for drop-in visits and enjoy spending time with pets, whether that means playtime, administering medications, or simply providing companionship while their family is away. Caring for animals isn't just something we do—it's something we genuinely love. We will treat your pets with the same patience, attention, and affection that we give my own rescue crew. 🐾❤️ For drop-in visits, we care for pets in their own home where they are most comfortable. We follow each pet's usual routine, including feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, medication administration (if needed), walks, litter box cleaning, playtime, and plenty of affection. We take the time to learn each pet's personality and preferences, so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. 🐾❤️
About: My first love was my childhood dog. I have been caring for dogs since a young child into my current adult life, including elderly dogs who need help taking their medications and young puppies who want to chew on EVERYTHINGGG. I am a proud auntie to three canines (two nephews and a niece), and I know firsthand the stress that accompanies trusting another person to care for your loved one. I would be honored to provide unique, supportive care so you can take care of the other important things in your life. I am a graduate student and part-time substitute teacher with an engineering background. I am lucky to have an extremely flexible schedule, and while it is always nice to make an extra bit of cash, I thoroughly enjoy working with animals! I have a large spare bedroom of my apartment with a big comfortable bed, large window, and overall calm environment. This can easily house up to two medium-sized pets comfortably while kept separate from the other room where my pets stay. My apartment complex includes great sidewalks and grass for frequent walks and outside play as needed.
“The best!!!! Super nice and very dependable. Had to call her last minute to go check in because we were nervous about the care we had booked and she was so helpful and made sure our cats were okay and well taken care of!”

“We much appreciated Josh's excellent communication throughout his visits. He kept us updated consistently which put our mind at ease. He is kind, courteous and so easy to work with...thank you, Josh!”

“Christopher recently looked after my cat Cujo, who is notoriously shy and rarely makes an appearance for anyone outside the family. Even though Cujo stayed hidden the whole time, I felt completely at ease knowing he was in good hands. Christopher maintained an open and consistent line of communication, giving me peace of mind throughout the entire time I was away. I really appreciated the updates and knowing that he was respectful of Cujo’s temperament and space. Even though they never had a face-to-face encounter, I could tell Christopher took his role seriously and cared about Cujo’s well-being. I’d absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful cat sitter—especially for pets who need a gentle, understanding presence.”

About: I have always been surrounded by animals my whole life. Back home I have 8 doggos between the ages of two and five who are unique in their own ways. I have two chihuahua/dachshund mixes,a boxer/pit bull mix, a black lab, a chocolate lab, a yellow lab, and two red labs. Every day is a new adventure for sure. I have personal experience with high energy doggos, reactive dogs, anxious dogs, potty accidents, special diets, kennel training, leash training, puppies, senior care, sick animals, puppy parvo, seizures, ear infections, fleas, ticks, dog and cat pregnancy, dog attacks, surgery care, wound care, animal grooming (nails, teeth, eyes, dry skin, coats), and much more. I sincerely enjoy giving all fur babies all the love and dedication they deserve. While I know it is hard to find someone who is willing and prepared to provide the care a pet needs, I am more than honored to be able to work with you if the fit is right. I am currently working full time at a coffee shop. Most of my shifts are early morning, so I am usually available anytime after 2-4:30 pm. I will always treat your pets with the utmost respect as I understand how important they are to you. I would want my own doggos to be treated the same. I know everyone has different standards when it comes to feeding, walking, outside time, etc. so I am more than willing to learn your pet's schedule to be able to benefit all involved. At no point would I ever try to input my own practices onto your animals without your permission.
“Samantha was great! She came for a meet and greet and kept us informed during the whole stay. She sent pictures at every check in and did a great job caring for my cat! Will definitely book with her again.”


“Suzanne was amazing! Her updates gave us such reassurance that our dog and cat were being given the best care, and the pictures were so cute. Will definitely be booking her again for upcoming trips!”

“Jocelyn is so incredible 🫶 this was my first time leaving my kitty for so long and I was really nervous about it, but she made the entire experience so much more comfortable for both me and my pet. She befriended my cat who is very spooky and standoffish, so she definitely deserves the title of Cat Whisperer 🥰 she really went above and beyond, was so kind, polite, professional, and respectful. I could tell she really cared for/about my pet, it wasn’t just about the job for her. I will definitely always reach out to Jocelyn before anyone else if/when we leave for another trip, and I’ll recommend her highly to anyone I come across looking for a pet sitter! Thank you Jocelyn! Nugget will miss you! 💕🐈⬛🐾”

About: I am an all around animal lover. I grew up with a variety of pets - dogs, cat, turtle, hamster and more. I now have 2 goofy and crazy pit bulls who I adore. Being adopted - they both have their share of quirks. One of our dogs was very mistreated before she was in our care. She now struggles with being leash and dog reactive - and she can be tricky when meeting new people. Because of this - I know how stressful it can be to find a pet sitter you can trust. My dogs are like children to me, and I know the energy, love, and care they deserve. My dogs have truly changed my life and I hope that I can be someone that can give you a sense of peace while you are away. Because of my special pups - my home is not a good environment for boarding. I am open to Drop Ins, Walks, and the occasional overnight in your home. I would like to do a meet and greet before every first visit - to ensure that you, your pets, and I all feel safe and confident. One of my dogs has bad allergies and I give her medicine every day. I have a lot of experience with giving dogs pills. I do not have any other medication administration experience - but I am open to learning if this is something you would like. I took both of my dogs to training classes. First dog for 3 years - second dog for 2 years. So I have a basic understanding of commands and other dog behaviors. I work from home with sporadic in person meetings. My schedule is flexible and I am able to build it around appointments. The earlier you let me know the times you'd like for me to work - the easier it will be for me to mark off that time for you. I work a hybrid position where I mostly work from home and then also have in person meetings throughout the week. I set the meeting times myself - so my schedule is very flexible. I am able to check in on your pups throughout the work day and I have weekends off. I have two dogs of my own at home who are large and somewhat reactive to other dogs. Because of this, I do not feel comfortable watching your pets in my home. I would love to do drop ins - where I can come in, care for you pet, and give them quality time and attention. I am open to walking dogs as well, but I would prefer a meet and greet to go over walking details and if I feel comfortable walking more than one at once- or if your dog has any quirks I may want to see before the first walk. I am open to doing an overnight in your home - but I would prefer to have already met your pet a few times so that I feel comfortable and I would like to meet you as well to establish our relationship before staying in your home.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Forestdale
Sarah did an amazing job taking care of our four pets! They all loved her, she was caring and made sure they were happy at all times! She sent multiple pictures of each of them at every visit (some were very funny pictures that made us laugh). I would recommend hiring her to take care of your fur babies. Thank you Sarah!

I highly recommend Mason. He took wonderful care of our cats with genuine care and affection. He was always on time, reliable, and made sure our cats were well looked after. We truly appreciated his dependability and would not hesitate to have him care for our pets again.

Becca did such a good job with Andi! After a bad experience with another sitter, we were super hesitant to book anyone for our trip. Becca went out of her way to make sure we knew when she would be at the apartment and everything that happened while she was there. We came home to a comfortable and happy cat. We can’t wait to book Becca again!

Sarah was awesome! She came and met Bear before sitting, which we really appreciated as first time Rover users. Best was spoiled the whole time we were gone, and Sarah was always in communication with us and updated with tons of pictures. Highly recommend and will 10000% have her as a sitter again. Thank you, Sarah!

Paul has been a great and reliable sitter for my 3 cats for a month now while I’ve been out of the country. He provided pictures every time and made sure all their needs were met, and followed up with me consistently in case he needed any thing for the cats. I had the pleasure having him look after my kitties and will surely be looking to work with him in the future!

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.

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 .
