“Shayna was able to help us last minute with our dog. She is very kind and took good care of him. She was also very flexible when we had a change of time in our plans. She made an extra unplanned visit and sent photos. I would definitely recommend Shayna!”
“Raven is amazing! She is so reliable & clearly loves the animals she watches. Thank you so much for hanging with my baby and keeping me updated while I was on my trip. You’re the best!! :)”
“She was wonderful and communicated with us very well the entire week she looked after our cats. They were well fed, watered, and played with and we really loved the pictures she sent of the pets with each update. We'd highly recommended Morgan and, if we need another sitter, will definitely return!”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve spent over 8 years caring for dogs for friends, family, and neighbors, and I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. As a Great Dane owner, I’m comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and energy levels. I provide patient, attentive care tailored to each pet’s routine and personality, and I make sure owners stay updated with photos and messages throughout every visit! I have a flexible schedule and make pet care a priority. I carefully plan my days to ensure every pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, potty breaks, playtime, and affection while they’re in my care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, medication instructions, and any special requests exactly as provided. I treat every pet with patience, love, and respect, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident while you’re away.
About: I am recently separated from active duty in the Air Force, and looking for ways to help out the community during my transition. I have day to day experience with our needy cat, and experience when I was younger and our family owned dogs! I do not have any training experience, but I do have a 1 year old daughter, so I am patient and willing to learn and assist! During my time in the military, I learned skills of task management and attention to detail, so I will follow instructions diligently! I am transitioning into the reserves but currently have a lot of free time so I am very flexible until I start my full time job later this winter. For care in the clients home, I will follow any instructions. I am also very active, so if you have an active dog, I would be able to go for runs with them or take them to dog parks if requested.
“2nd time with Dori caring for our dog. It is so refreshing to have such a reliable and effective person check-in for us. We sleep better knowing we can count on her. Thanks Dori!!”
“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.”
“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.”
“Victoria is awesome. I get so anxious leaving my pets at home so having someone as reliable and communicative as Victoria puts my mind at ease incredibly. Even my shy cat doesn't hide and wants to hang out. I always trust her care!”
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.
“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!”
About: We are Sarah and Ethan, a newlywed couple who absolutely love dogs! Sarah’s family has had small dogs all throughout her childhood, and she always loved caring for them! From walking them, feeding them and bathing them, she enjoyed it all! Additionally, Ethan and I have cared for other families pets (dogs and cats) over the years. We truly believe animals are man’s best friend and they deserve the best care. We both work full time jobs outside of the home, so a dog that can stay alone for 6-8 hours without a potty break is ideal for us! Please see our availability calendar as our schedule changes frequently. We look forward to hearing from you! When we care for your pet, we will treat them just like our own! Your animals safety is our number one priority. Additionally, there will be a lot of play time, walks, and snuggles :)
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.
About: Experienced in caring for short-term foster dogs, cats from the animal shelter for ~4 years. Guinea pig mom! I was a cat mom previously. I am self-employed part-time while I focus on caring for my family and can board kitties or play with pets during the day. I can care for your pets in your home or in mine, depending on the situation. We have a fenced in backyard and a spacious home.
About: I’ve grown up with animals my whole life and currently have 4 dogs and 2 cats, so caring for pets is just part of my everyday routine. I’m used to handling different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I take care of feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning, grooming, and making sure every pet gets plenty of attention and love. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. My sister is a dog trainer at PetSmart, and I’ve gone with her to training classes while working with one of our puppies. Through that experience, I’ve learned a lot about basic obedience, positive reinforcement, and how to better understand dog behavior. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I take that seriously. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available for daytime drop-ins, walks, and extended care, and I can adjust my schedule to fit your pet’s routine as closely as possible. I’m happy to accommodate early mornings, evenings, and weekends whenever needed. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow care instructions closely, including feeding routines, walking preferences, and any special needs. I take time to understand each pet’s personality and body language so I can respond appropriately. I’m respectful of your home and your pet’s space, keep doors and gates secure, and provide constant supervision when pets are in my care. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is safe and happy while you’re away.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Goose Creek
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!
Huiying is always so amazing with our little guy! We appreciate the care she provides. She not only checks in on him but actually focuses on him with a little training and play time! We will continue to use her services as long as she’s in business!! Not to mention our little guy loves to see her!
Sierra was so amazing with our pets!!! She was the first sitter we ever hired to watch our animals, and I’m so glad that she made our first experience on rover a good one. I was so worried about my cats getting out until I met her, but she was willing to do a meet and greet before hand and she sent me so many cute pictures of them during our time away! I’m so sad that she won’t be in my area anymore 😭 to whoever books her next, your babies are in good hands!!!
Emma has been caring for my dog for several years now and I honestly can’t recommend her enough. She’s super sweet, dependable, and really responsive. It’s obvious she genuinely loves animals. My dog Gracie gets sooo excited when Emma comes in the door. I always know Gracie is safe, happy, and well taken care of when she’s with Emma. She’s reliable, trustworthy, and someone I feel totally comfortable having in my home and looking after Gracie. Anyone looking for a kind, responsible, dependable pet sitter would be really lucky to have Emma!
Madison was amazing with our three dogs! My one dachshund can be very scared and shy with people he’s never met and she was able to get him to go outside which just shows how good she is with dogs. She left me a long detailed message after as well about how each dog was. Will definitely be using her again!
Nothing but great things to say about Perry. Perry accepted my very last minute booking request and also assisted with choosing the most suitable time window for drop-in visits. My Henrietta was not as warm & fuzzy as I had described her as being when first meet Perry. This quickly changed and by day 2 these 2 were going on walks and relaxing in the back yard together. Perry remained present but patient; with great success. I would recommend her to everyone.
Cassandra is the most caring and responsible best friend of our dogs Oliver and Charlie. She is always on time, very dedicated to go a good job and to give them everything they need when she is in charge. We love every picture and every update she gave to us when we are away. Thank you again! Please do not hesitate to pick her, she is the absolute best! 🐶 🐾
Nothing but wonderful things to say about Katie. I found myself needing a sitter to care for Henrietta at the very last moment. I was extremely grateful when Katie promptly responded to my booking request. Katie was attentive to Henrietta’s needs while she put my mind at ease with regular updates, including photos and video clips. Despite the challenges of last-minute booking with no time for a meet and greet, less than desirable weather conditions and Henrietta‘s hearing impairment, booking with Katie was a success. I would recommend Katie to anyone looking for someone to care for their pet.

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 Goose Creek 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 .

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 .
