“Sarah is a great communicator! Pictures and messages every day. Our dog has severe anxiety and takes meds 4 times a day. Sarah was attentive to all of Dahlia’s needs. I cannot adequately express in words how grateful I am for Sarah and her care for our dog.”
“Shannon is awesome! She cared for our pup for two weeks. Sent photos and updates. Our house was spotless when we returned. She makes being away a bit easier. Highly recommend.”
“Christine was so nice to come to my house last minute early in the morning when my boyfriend had to go to work suddenly and couldn’t watch my dog which my doodle while I was on vacation for my birthday. She was patient with him provided fast response. I’ll forever use her services”
“Crystal was amazing with Harley. She provided daily updates with photos and many with videos. She's very attentive... checked the mail, noticed an active hornets nest at the back of my complex and reported it to staff, and left my place nice and neat at the end of her stay... even washed the bedding! I will definitely be reaching out to Crystal again for pet/ house sitting, again. 10/10 Recommend 😊”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals for four years now, I began in my own neighborhood, and then ventured out to helping others in need of animal care. I love it and I am extremely flexible when it comes to caring for your pets! I currently work very early mornings at my job, which leads me to be out around noon. I am available everyday, and love snuggling, playing, and walks with any furry friend! I care for your pets in the way that best suits your needs. I typically will cater differently to everyone, some animals are older and don’t want to go on walks, some need to burn energy all day long! It’s completely up to you how your animal is cared for.
“Daniela was amazing to have stay in our home and care for our 4 fur-babies while we were away. She was attentive, communicative, and demonstrated great compassion for our animals. I would absolutely recommend Daniela for your pet/house-sitting needs!”
About: I currently have 2 dogs and 3 cats. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages and sizes. I love all my babies so much, and I’d love to care for your pets as well! This is my full time job so I’m available all the time honestly. I will do my best to work around you and your pets’ needs! I try keep my calendar updated, but I’m pretty flexible as well! I can make changes and come more/less than you originally thought you may need. I’m a very loving owner who is always cuddling up with animals! I’ve always had dogs and cats, so I’m comfortable with whatever they’re comfortable with.
“Liv arrived on time, communicated throughout the time she was with our pets and left the house clean. Our pets were healthy & happy upon our return. I'd recommend Liv to others that need pet care.”
“Mia is THE BEST of THE BEST!!!! I would give her a million stars if I could! She took the best care of my babies and you could tell they really loved her! I would recommend her to anybody and everybody! Thank you, Mia for taking care of my babies!”
“Jadyn was fantastic! She took wonderful care of our pets while we were away, and it was clear from the moment we got home how comfortable and happy they were. She also took great care of our house and even left us kind compliments about our home, which was very sweet. Communication was great throughout, and we came back to a happy household and a well-kept home. We'd absolutely book Jadyn again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive pet sitter!”
About: At the height of my career, I have taken care of four rescue dogs all at once for an entire week straight! None of the dogs fought and they all felt comfortable around me. I am available to let dogs out all day and provide them with belly rubs and entertainment. I am currently unemployed and would like to take this up full time if possible. I have a cat at home, but he’s low maintenance and I am able to juggle that with dog-sitting. I can comfortably allow a cat and a small or medium dog into my apartment if they would prefer boarding. I am good to travel to sit more so, because I do not have a yard. But I do live in a dog-friendly complex.
“Margaret is my go-to dog sitter whenever I travel overnight, and she never disappoints. She did an amazing job as always, and I loved getting lots of updates and pictures throughout my trip. It's such a relief to know my dog is in great hands. I can't recommend her enough!”
“Lee was absolutely phenomenal. I have two very nervous dogs and he put them both at ease immediately. He kept my home clean and tidy during his stay and my dogs were very well cared for. I’d give Lee 10 stars if I could”
About: I’ve taken care of my family’s animals since a toddler. In high school I created a pet walking/sitting business in my area and have a cat of my own. You can rely on me for all things pets! As a remote freelancer, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide care throughout the day. Being able to create my own schedule allows me to adjust my routine according to your babies needs. I’m naturally active, so daily walks and playtime are already part of my routine. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while sticking to their normal routine. As a freelancer I am able to adjust my schedule based on your pets needs/personality and I can provide your pet company as I work.
“Emma was amazing! She communicated the whole time and sent lots of photos. We could really tell that Dallas and Maggie were very loved and had lots of fun. Will definitely book again :)”
About: 🐾 Your Pet’s Home Away From Home When you’re away from your pet, I know how important it is to have someone you can truly trust. My goal is simple: to make your pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and have cared for and trained dogs of my own for many years. I’m a certified dog trainer with experience in dog training and nutrition, and I genuinely love learning each animal’s individual personality, routines, and needs. I believe great pet care goes beyond simply providing food and walks. I take the time to understand what makes each pet comfortable and happy, whether that means sticking closely to their routine, giving them extra playtime and attention, or simply letting them relax in a familiar environment. 🐶🐱 All Animals Welcome My experience isn’t limited to dogs! I’m comfortable caring for a variety of animals, including: Dogs • Cats • Rabbits • Rats • Ferrets • Lizards • horses and more! Every animal is different, and I’m happy to follow detailed care instructions so your pet can maintain the routine they’re accustomed to while you’re away. The animals in my home are also accustomed to being around other animals, helping create a welcoming and respectful environment for visiting pets. ❤️ Why Choose Me? ✔️ Certified dog trainer ✔️ Experienced with multiple types of animals ✔️ Knowledgeable about pet nutrition and individual care needs ✔️ Patient, attentive, and safety-focused ✔️ I treat every pet as an individual ✔️ I’ll follow your pet’s routine and care instructions ✔️ French-speaking 🇫🇷 ✔️ Your pet gets genuine attention, affection, and care—not just the basics Your pet isn’t just another booking. They’re family. My job is to make sure they feel that way while they’re in my care. Je parle aussi français! 🇫🇷 For the most part I’m at home Monday through Sunday. Friday, Saturday & Sunday I’m out for three hours in the morning working. Potty breaks are always available:) I have a puppy and a cat. Treats and love are always available. If there are any food allergies I’m use to this, it’s not a problem. If they need a bath I’m happy to do so ☺️ I make homemade treats but I always ask when I meet with you if they can have them.

FAQs for House Sitting - Fountain Inn
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Fountain Inn on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 1,009 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fountain Inn. 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 Fountain Inn 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 Fountain Inn 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 Fountain Inn 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.
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.
