“This was my first time using Rover and having an in-home sitter, and Victoria was absolutely wonderful. She took exceptional care of our little senior man, making sure he stayed on schedule with his insulin and other medications. He truly thrived under her care. Victoria kept us updated with thoughtful messages and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She also took great care of our home, and I felt completely comfortable trusting her. I highly recommend Victoria—you will not regret choosing her! Thank you Victoria. LJ can’t wait till the next time. 🐾🐾”
About: Hi there! My name is Diya and I’m an experienced dog lover with hands on care from puppyhood all the way through the senior years. My dog has been by my side her whole life, so I’ve navigated everything from puppy zoomies and training to the slower, gentler needs of senior care as she got older. That means I’m comfortable no matter what stage of life your pup is in. ❤️ Since my dog is on the larger side, I’m very comfortable with big dogs, handling leash pulls, playtime energy, and just generally being comfortable around larger breeds. Whether your dog needs an active walk, a calm cuddle session, or just someone who understands their routine, I’d love to help take great care of them! 🐾💓 Drop-ins are preferred but I’ll never turn down the opportunity to chill with your furry friends for a couple hours throughout the day as well! 🏡 Creating a harmonious balance between my furry friends and daily life is my top priority. With a well-structured schedule, I ensure that pet care seamlessly fits into my day, every day. Whether it's early morning walks, midday play sessions, or evening snuggle time, your pet's needs will always be met. I understand the importance of consistency and routine for our furry companions, and I'm committed to providing them with a stable and fulfilling environment. Trust me to keep their tails wagging and their hearts content while effortlessly incorporating pet care into my daily joy-filled routine! Although I live in an house without a fenced yard, rest assured that your cherished pets are in the best hands. Safety and comfort are my utmost priorities when caring for pets, whether it's in my home or your own. In any situation I create a welcoming space with ample room for play, cozy corners for relaxation, and secure boundaries to ensure their well-being. Regular walks and engaging activities are integrated into their stay to provide both physical exercise and mental stimulation. Additionally, with my house being part of a secure community, your furry companions will enjoy an added layer of safety during their time with me.
“My dogs are 10 and 12, and they both got sick on my very first day out of town. Chrissonna was incredible - she kept a close eye on them, gave me clear updates about what was going on, and had them both comfortable, taking their meds, and feeling better before the end of the day. It was such a relief to know they were in good hands. I would highly recommend Chrissonna to anyone who wants peace of mind while traveling.”
“I fear my two were not as excited when I got home because Shalisha did such an amazing job taking care of them while I was away! She did such a wonderful job caring for my two angels, I didn’t worry once while I was away because her communication was so amazing and my two dogs were so comfortable with her immediately. Would definitely recommend Shalisha to care for your babies for the best care!”
About: Taken care of dogs since I was a kid, currently working at a dog kennel feeding and caring for plenty of dogs. Love playing and showing plenty of attention I’m currently working part-time so I am available usually Monday through Friday with a weeks notice. I usually have a very open and free schedule. I have a fenced in back yard at home and usually let them out every 3-4 hours. feed them twice a day. we also have plenty of toys to keep them occupied.
“Bret took such good care of our house and our two energetic puppies! He took great pictures and kept us in the loop about everything. Hope he is free the next time we are headed out of town!”
“Niki’s care for our five critters was fantastic! The kitties appreciated staying at home as did the dogs. My job as a “pet mommy” was much easier. Hauling five critters to boarding with all their food parceled out and just the wear and tear of transporting a 130 pound dog, two kitties and two Chihuweenies, well it was much much easier on all of us. Nikki did a great job of keeping everyone on routine, happy, walked and fed.”
“Jaelyn was absolutely amazing! My dogs were so well taken care of. My home looked immaculate. She was very responsive and sent me constant updates. I can tell my babies were loved and spoiled while we were away. I will absolutely book Jaelyn again.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fort Mill
Alex was absolutely amazing with our Maltipoo, Charlie! We were away in the South of France for 12 days, and she gave us complete peace of mind. She kept us updated with photos and messages, and it was obvious Charlie was happy, comfortable, and so well cared for. When we got home, Charlie was his happy, playful self, and our house was spotless. It honestly felt like walking into our own home after a relaxing vacation instead of coming home to a mess. That level of care and thoughtfulness means so much. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and we will absolutely book with Alex again!
Grace was amazing! Our chiweenie Emily hurt her leg while we were away and Grace kept us up to date on how she was doing and she did everything she could to make Emily comfortable. The house looked great, the plants were well taken care of and the mail was picked up. I would definitely recommend Grace and will certainly use her again. Emily is doing fine!
Absolutely fantastic. Needed an emergency last minute sit and Alexis was so accommodating. Alexis took amazing care of my 3 difficult puppers, providing great communication the whole time and even making sure some of my dogs idiosyncrasies were normal (they were but so wonderful to have that level of detail in their care).
We wish we could leave more than 5 stars! Brittany fulfilled a last-minute, long-term house/dog sitting job for us (28 days!) while we were traveling out of the country and she did such an amazing job. Brittany is a caretaker and dog lover at heart and we were so comfortable to have her stay in our home with our two dogs (a brown lab and a border collie). When we got home our pups were happy and healthy (and probably a little disappointed it wasn’t her coming in the door haha), and our home was immaculately clean. Brittany was very communicative while we were away and took care of everything we asked of her. She clearly loved on our dogs while we were gone and we couldn’t be more pleased with the level of care she took of both the dogs and the house. We know exactly who to call the next time we need a sitter!

FAQs for House Sitting - Fort Mill
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Fort Mill on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 2,822 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fort Mill. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Fort Mill 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 Fort Mill 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 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!
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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

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.
