“Katie has gone above and beyond in taking great care of our 3 pups. The pups look so happy in the daily photos she sends. It makes it easier to get through my work day knowing they are well taken care of.”
About: I’ve dog sat for up to 10 days at the owners residence multiple times. I love taking them on walks. Interned at vets office for a semester and had to walk dogs constantly of all sizes and breeds. Free every day. Able to do walks/ let out to potty whenever until 4 everyday. I Can let them out after I get off work if needed. I don’t mind staying the night either. I love my dogs with everything I have. I treat my pets as if they were humans. I love playing with them or just sitting with them and using their body as a pillow or to keep me warm. I am outside almost all day everyday so I love playing fetch or tug or in water.
“Haley was great with my dog with special needs. She followed instructions provided updates and showed she really cared. We would definitely use Haley as our sitter again. Thank you!”
About: I grew up in a family that always had pets and working dogs mostly mixed breeds and some purebreds. I have had two dogs (one at a time) in the last thirty years. My first dog was a registered black Labrador. My wife gave her to me on our second Christmas together. Her name was Genoa - after the Italian city I studied in as a grad student. She passed away at nineteen years old. I now have a Maltese - Shih Tzu. He loves to play fetch even though he is eleven years old. I do DoorDash part-time, so I have a flexible schedule. I can work around your dog's routine to make sure they're fed and exercised regularly. In my experience, animals feel more comfortable and secure in their usual environment, so the only new element is my presence and how I interact with them. I have cared for dogs that need regular medications and exercise, and I maintain their schedule and activities as closely as possible. This is especially important to me when dealing with dogs who are crated or confined. I want to build a strong relationship with your pet based on trust and consistency.
“Molly was wonderful! She dropped in to handle walks and meal time for our three dogs. Every one was happy and our home was well cared for. Even our grumpy Olivia enjoyed her time with Molly. We are looking forward to her in home sitting next week.”
“Christina did a great job with my 2 cats, I highly recommend her especially if you have rescues who are a bit skiddish. My cats started warming up to her on the 2nd day. Thank you Christina”
About: Active volunteer at the York County Humane Society Animal Shelter. Retired from corporate life focused on doing what I love. My pets have always been members of the family. 🐾 30 Years of Loving Dogs & Cats — Your Pets Are Family! I provide loving, dependable, and personalized pet sitting so you can feel confident they’re in caring hands while you’re away. I keep my calendar up to date and am retired from full-time work. Available for boarding and overnight stays. Available for 3 visits per day I have a yard and full basement dedicated to pet sitting and can crate a dog if requested. I will request meet and greet along with vet information and instructions ahead of time.
“From the moment I met Hillary for the first meet and greet, you could tell she loves what she does and cares about the fur babies in her care. She took great care of my 6 yr old cat Misty while I was out if town by sending pictures, a short video of her playing , a report card that she ate, peed, pooped, etc. She kept excellent communication with me and asked questions to give the best care. I would highly recommend Hillary for anyone needing a pet sitter!”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my professional experience working at a dog boarding facility for two years, where I cared for dogs of all ages and temperaments. This experience has given me the skills to handle various situations, from managing energetic pups to providing special attention for senior dogs. Additionally, I've been a dog owner since 2012, which has allowed me to develop a strong understanding of dog behavior, training, and the everyday care needed to keep a pet happy and healthy. I am dedicated to providing your pet with the best possible experience. I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of extra time to care and love for your pet. I am free mornings and early afternoon as well as late nights. But I can be flexible. Whatever you and your pet need. Unfortunately, my childhood dog recently passed away but now I have extra space and time for your pets! I have all the necessary things to care for your pet as well as a crate for smaller dogs if needed. But every dog is different so the routine I had for my dog is different than the routine your pet is used to, so whatever your pet needs while you are away, I will be happy to provide that for you both.
About: I have had animals all my life, dogs, cats, rodents, and birds. I'm experienced with younger and older animals as well as giving medicines and other. I'm currently a college student and don't work so I have plenty of time to play with pups / kitties and come by for feedings and other. When pet sitting I typically will go by 2 to 3 times a day for feeding and play. I'm always careful around animals especially when they don't know me, I know some can take some time to warm up! I can do walks, play in house, or a backyard if allowed, and other general care.
About: I’ve pet sat for my neighbors and family members for a few years. I used to pet sit for my aunt a lot and I loved it but she moved away, so I can’t pet sit for her anymore. I had so much fun, and I love spending time and caring for every animal. I look forward to meeting your amazing pets, and watching over them for you! I’m currently unemployed and have plenty of free time to check in and care for your pets. Im free the whole 7 days of the week :) I have 5 furry babies myself, 2 big dog fenced in the backyard and 3 kitties in the house, I also have 3 hermit crabs that I take care of. I have plenty of experience with all kinds of pets even a pig :)
About: I've been taking care of pets both mine and family and friends since I was a teenager. Experience with puppies to seniors and everything in between. Love them all! ❤️ I'm currently staying at home with my youngest of 4 and our sweet dog. I am very flexible with schedule. Once school starts will have slightly less availability in the am and afternoon. I have a fenced yard and can walk them daily on private dirt road. I also have a dog at home who will be all too happy for a playmate. Also happy to crate if that is something that is required to maintain schedule and habits.
“She was wonderful with Emmy! She took her to the park, kept her company, and made sure she got plenty of attention and care while I was away. I really appreciated knowing Emmy was in good hands and getting some fun time outside.”
“Angela did an excellent job taking care of my dog. She came over exactly when we said we needed her and took her time at the house making sure my dog was taken care of. She even sent us the cutest pictures! We will be using her again for sure.”
About: I am a previous dog owner and have the biggest heart when it comes to animals!! I’m great with bath time and training. I love the outdoors and have no problem spending plenty of time outside running around playing catch! There is a dog park in my neighborhood and plenty of places in the area if the dog isn’t use to other animals. I live 10 minutes from river walk and other great walking trails! I also have a nice size patio for sun bathing. I use to work at a dog kennel so I have experience working with every size dog from a chihuahua to an English mastiff. Keep me in mind for all of your dog walking and over night stays! Thank you!
“Nicole and Zack were awesome! You could tell from moment we met them that they were good people and took amazing care of our two kitties. Definitely will use them again moving forward!”
About: I have owned pet dogs in my home since childhood and currently have a dog of my own. I also have experienced working in a dog daycare, working with all breeds, ages, and temperaments. I am available for drop in care or a walk during the early morning, late mornings, and afternoon. I am available for same day bookings! I will be watching dogs in their own home. Because of this I will be able to follow the directions of the pet parents to uphold the safety measures they have in place in their home.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fort Mill
We’re so grateful for Kellie taking such great care of our Buffie while we were away! She kept us updated throughout our trip with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing Buffie was in good hands. We really appreciate her communication and the care she gave our girl. We’d absolutely recommend Kellie and look forward to having her watch Buffie again!
Zach took wonderful care of our 2 boys. Spent extra time playing and letting them relax outside over the beautiful weekend. Very prompt on his visits and always sent updates. I would highly recommend him for anyone wanting their furry loved one to feel well taken care of when you away.
Melissa has been wonderful with our puppy! We’ve booked her twice now for midday drop ins, and she’s been so great about giving him a much needed potty break and some playtime while we’re working. She’s super communicative, sends the cutest photos, and we feel like Scout is in great hands with her. We’ll definitely be using Melissa again!
Mary was amazing taking care of our lab mix and is such an obvious animal lover! Our dog acted like she had found a new bestie from the moment she arrived to meet her. Mary was highly responsive and communicated clearly over the long weekend we were away. She went above and beyond, even giving Sweetie a play date with her dog. I didn’t have to worry about my dog being depressed or lonely while I was away. We are so grateful to have had Mary take care of Sweetie for us!
Michael was amazing and flexible. He bounded with our sweet boy Jackson!! We were updated and we had full confidence that Michael had everything under control. Michael is great with big dogs and has a great touch with them. We definitely will be using Michael again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Fort Mill is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 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 November 2026, there are 4,833 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Fort Mill. 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 Fort Mill 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 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.
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.
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 Fort Mill 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 Fort Mill. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 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.
