“Harriette was amazing! I’m new to the area and was looking for a pet sitter and I’m so happy I came across Rover—which led me to Harriette! Someone who keeps in touch and sends photos and updates about my cat when I’m away is HUGE, and Harriette was someone who did just that. I know Dexter is in good hands with Harriette and plan to book her again for all of our times away from home!”
“Jessica was great with our senior dog! She was patient and kind. Will definitely use her as a sitter again in the future. She was on time and communicated well. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy and on time for your pets I would book with her. I’m typically skeptical about letting strangers in my home however she was great.”
About: Hi, I'm Cloe! I live in Greenville and I've wanted a dog for years. Until then, I'm happy to spend time with yours. I've fostered a dog before, so I know how much a new routine can stress a pup, and I'm patient about helping them settle in. I also have a cat, so I'm comfortable with animals of all kinds. I'm active and love getting outside, so walks and playtime are my favorite part. I'll send photo and video updates so you can see how your dog is doing. I'm happy to follow your dog's routine for food, meds, and walks. I'm home on weekends, so your dog stays with me and gets my full attention, not hours alone. I stick to your routine for meals, walks, and potty breaks, and I'll send photo updates throughout the stay. Evenings are for relaxing together at home. I also have a cat, so your dog would be sharing the space with one. My home is calm and comfortable, and your dog stays with me for the whole weekend, so they get lots of attention. I ask owners to bring their dog's food, bed, and favorite toys so things feel familiar, and I follow your routine for meals, medications, walks, and potty breaks. Your dog gets regular walks and playtime, and I send photo updates throughout the stay. I have a cat, so I do a quick meet-and-greet beforehand to make sure everyone's comfortable. If anything comes up, I'll contact you right away and follow your vet and emergency instructions
“Jessica was on time and did well to manage my squad of four dogs. I felt so much better having her check in on them twice a day while I was out of town. She sent precious pictures and even brought us by in my packages off the porch! My senior dog had an accident and she was kind enough to clean that up. 10/10 would book again.”
“I felt very comfortable leaving my Maine Coon cat, Sophie for 8 days under the care of Julie. She came daily for 30 minutes to our home to feed Sophie, clean her litter box, brush her and play with her. Julie always sent me updated pictures of Sophie and described how sweet she was. Julie truly connected with her and gave her the love and attention Sophie needed. I will definitely use her again when I go out of town and I recommend her to future clients.”
“Sesaria is awesome with pets. I loved how she gave me updates and pics of my 3 kitties. My 3 kitties fell in love with her while my partner and I were away for the weekend. I definitely recommend!”
About: I grew up on a farm and have had pets my entire life. When I was young, we breed our dogs and I raised and trained the puppies. More recently, my Mia had lots of health troubles. I got good a wound care from acl surgeries, rehab, and senior care from dm symptoms. I’m currently working part time as an interior designer. My job is very flexible! When I am working, I work from home mostly unless I have a client meeting. I walk 10k steps daily and love having a furry friend join me! I have a fully fenced yard in a quiet neighborhood. I walk the neighborhood daily. We have a dog door for easy inside outside access. Our yard stays shaded pretty much all day so it’s great for outside play!
About: I have grown up and cared for many dogs and cats. I have always been an animal lover and love going on walks with my dog. I currently work from home and make my own schedule so am looking to walk and take of animals during the day! I am currently not working because I am going back to college soon so I will be able to spend as much time needed with the pets. I have a gated backyard, a very big gated neighborhood to go on walks and I am very close to that beach for morning jogs!!
“Cindy was an absolute dream helping me out by dropping in on my two very old schnauzers. They bonded with her quickly and trusted her for hugs and snuggles. She was kind and cleaned up their little messes and joined them in the yard to walk around. I felt very comfortable with Cindy in my home and she was so lovely and flexible. I know I will be using her again.”
“Ella was a fantastic sitter! She did a few drop-ins for our two kittens while we were away and followed all of our instructions perfectly. She was communicative and sent the best check-in photos!”
About: I am a previous foster parent for Oconee Humane Society and have taken care of all ages of dogs. As a foster parent, I took care of dogs with different behavioral issues, therefore, I am experienced with reactive dogs. I work full-time Monday–Friday with flexible hours, so my schedule can vary from day to day. I’m available for pet care before and after work, as well as during flexible portions of my workday. I’m happy to coordinate around your pet’s routine and make sure they receive plenty of attention, walks, and care. I currently live in a very spacious town home that includes a dog park. I also have access to numerous walking trails in my area.
“Tamara was very helpful with last minute walk request! She made sure my pup was well fed and taken care of! She provided plenty of pictures and thorough update. Would definitely book her again! Thank you so much!”
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and truly enjoy giving them the attention and care they deserve while their owners are away. I grew up with pup who was part of our family for 16 years, and I was involved in her care every step of the way—including providing attentive senior care as she aged. Because of that experience, I’m very comfortable caring for older pets and those who need a little extra patience and support. As a clinical-year PA student, I bring a high level of responsibility, attention to detail, and reliability to every pet I care for. I make it a priority to follow each pet’s routine closely so they feel safe, comfortable, and at ease while you’re away. You can also expect clear communication and regular updates with photos, so you always know how your pet is doing. I also love spending time outdoors, so your dog can look forward to plenty of walks, exercise, and fresh air with me! I’m mostly available on weekends (Friday–Sunday). As a clinical-year PA student, my schedule can change, but that also makes me very flexible! I’ll always keep you updated with any changes so you can feel confident in planning. My goal is to provide loving, attentive care and make your pup feel safe, comfortable, and secure while you’re away. For boarding, I live in a pet-friendly apartment with easy access to the Swamp Rabbit Trail, which is perfect for regular walks, exercise, and outdoor time. For drop-in visits, I take the time to make sure your dog is well cared for—this includes letting them out, feeding, playtime, and giving them plenty of attention. If time allows, I’m always happy to include a walk as well. I’m also attentive to each pet’s individual needs and routine, so you can feel confident they’re in good hands.
About: Hi, I have been professionally pet-sitting and a dog mom for over twenty years. My family had dogs and cats from the time I was born. I helped care for newborn golden retriever puppies when my mom was a breeder when I was in middle school. I have experience with senior dogs with health challenges, including my sweet lab mix who lived to be 15 as well as a few pet sitting clients who have needed special attention. I love spending time with animals and celebrating life, sharing their joyful presence and pure, loving hearts. I'm delighted to brush, massage, administer meds, cuddle, walk, play ball, play hide-and-seek, run, and talk to your fur children. I have a gorgeous pit bull named Jade who vacations at my parents house when I am pet sitting in your home. I currently work up to six hour shifts at a restaurant. If your pets need breaks more often than that, I need a couple of weeks notice to make sure I can be off work. I am in transition from grad school to private practice as a marriage and family therapist, and I intend to pet sit as I gradually get my practice up and running and increase clients. I will continue to be available for in home pet sitting, staying at your home at least part time throughout the day. ***I do not smoke and am sensitive to strong chemical perfumes, so I will not bring anything like that into your environment. I can’t pet sit in smoking homes or homes that have mold, musty smells, or strong air freshener perfumes. These things are generally not an issue for short drop-in visits or walks.
About: As an occupational therapist my ability to provide client centered care will ensure that you feel ready to leave your pets in my care! I’ve lived with dogs since before I can remember, and have experience with dogs of all sizes. I’m currently working as an occupational therapist with varying hours from 8-6 Monday through Thursday. I am an early riser and stay up later offering lots of time to care for pets, play, and make sure their needs are met We have a fenced in yard at our current home! I enjoy exercising so able to provide long or short walks. Living close to downtown ensures we can go play fetch too!
About: I am a retired teacher with a love for animals. I am comfortable with any size dog and am experienced in giving medicines and injections if needed. I have a very flexible schedule and would love to care for your fur babies. I am retired so my schedule is flexible. I don't mind making multiple visits within a day. I can follow whatever directions you give me. I treat guests like my own pets. In my house, they have free reign. Outside, we must be leashed unless inside the pool fence. If dogs like to swim, they can.

Harriette did a great job watching Farrah while we were away! Always very responsive and communicative. Our cat had just finished a round of medication before we left so we werent sure how she would be while away, but Harriette was great about keeping us updated with her status and adjusting care as needed. Thanks!
Andrea was extremely helpful in taking care of my pup when I had to leave last moment for a family emergency. She was attentive to my pup’s needs and provided plenty of feedback. I’ve booked her before and had the same results and will absolutely book her again in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
