“Marie was an absolute joy and took amazing care of my cat, Arbie, and dog, Tycho. Not only was she willing to sit with fairly short notice but did everything right. 12/10 would recommend! 😊”
“Rebecca is wonderful. She helped us last minute when we needed it and took care of our two pups. One of our dogs is recovering from a surgery and Rebecca did a great job managing his meds and the physical therapy he needed daily. I would 10/10 recommend her and look forward to working with her again the in future.”
“Sarah was exceptional! She took such good care of our cat Keagan and communicated with us daily, sending pictures of them interacting. She was very responsible and left our home as clean as we left it. She paid attention to details and went above and beyond. We highly recommend Sarah and would hire her again without question.”
“Zoe was amazing! We had a last minute need for 10 days for our golden retriever and she cared for Rosie like her own dog. She’s delightful, trustworthy, and capable. We’re so happy we met her.”
About: Ive been taking care of my own pets as long as Ive been able, and began pet sitting, house sitting, and dog walking for others in high school during 2022. I have experience with cats and dogs of varying ages (puppies/kittens-elderly pets) and needs (illnesses and disabilities), as well as more exotic pets like lizards, birds, rodents, and aquatic animals like fish, turtles, and axolotls. I’ve administered medications for dogs, but do not have experience with needles. I’ve spent up to a week taking care of several animals at a time, as well as short periods like nights and checking in daily. I will do all I can to provide your pet and home with the care they need! I’m currently in college, but primarily online, so my school schedule is flexible with your needs! I am not working outside of pet care so I am not tied down to other responsibilities and provide the time needed to care for your pets. I’ve lived with pets my whole life, so I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs. When caring for pets in their own home, I’ll follow their usual schedule as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and lots of attention. I’m comfortable paying attention to a pet’s behavior and making sure they’re safe, comfortable, and secure. I’ll also treat your home with respect, double-check doors and gates, and follow any specific instructions you leave. I’m happy to send photos and updates so you can relax knowing your pets are being well cared for while you’re away.
“Sam was absolutely awesome taking care of my Dixie and Tobi. She stayed in my house for 11 days with them and they loved her. She is caring and pays very close attention to detail. I highly recommend Sam. Thank you so much for taking such a good care of my babies.”
“Jonathan took fantastic care of both our dog, Winston, and our house! I would highly recommend him as a pet/house sitter. He took Winston on very long walks, sent daily photos and updates, and kept us informed on Winston's well-being during our absence. We knew Winston was well cared for, and therefore we had no concerns while we were away. Jonathan gave us peace of mind that our "baby" was just fine.”
“Emma was so great with our cat, Finn! She communicated well (and sent pictures!) while we were away. She even brought in our mail and fed our fish which we really appreciated. We’ll definitely be reaching out to her again if we’re in need of another sitter!”
“Sophie was once again an amazing sitter for Pumpkin! She is very responsive and sends us pictures and updates throughout the week which we always appreciate. She seems to understand Pumpkin and his personality very well and we always come home to a well taken care of and happy dog!”
“Heath was amazing! I have hired other sitters but no one has been better than him so far! He was always updating us about our pets (two dogs and one cat) and was very present while we were away. One of my dogs gets anxious when left alone for too long and Heath made sure to be at my house as much as he could. I asked him to stay at our house and he was very respectful to our property. I highly recommend his services!”
“Highly recommend Latifa, she worked wonders with my two post-op spayed (formerly) stray cats who required some special attention. So glad she was able to accommodate us so last minute!”
About: My name is Breanne! I own a hound/ GSD, two cats, and I am fostering a lab! I used Rover in a pinch one day so I know how important this job is and how much of a lifesaver it can be! I would love the opportunity to help someone else in a pinch and make a dog happy at the same time. I am very active, I run trails, walk, hike, I can take your dog to the park, hiking, whatever you need. I have experience with various harness tools, etc.. as my dog is a working dog and we are constantly training. I love spending time with pets in all settings and I’m happy to help in any way I can! I also volunteer at a rescue in my spare time and coordinate spay and neuter services. I currently telework three days a week and have the flexibility to increase this when necessary. I work Monday - Friday 8-3:30pm and can work from anywhere. I believe in maintaining a pets routine to the best of my ability. Having your best friend away can be stressful enough, I do my best to ease your pet’s discomfort as much as possible.
“Reese is absolutely fantastic. Both Bertha and Milo absolutely loved her. She stayed with them for the week and took care of all of their needs. I would highly recommend and will be sure to contact her again when I need another sitter.”
“Rich did a great job communicating with us and giving us frequent photos/ videos of our dog while we were away. We came home to a clean house & a happy dog.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was little. They have always had a special place in heart. I’ve had all different types of animals and my sister is a vet so she has taught me some little things. I am currently working a part time job and I’m about to leave for college and need some extra hours. I don’t mind if it’s miles or just down the street. I personally don’t care if I have to go in someone’s house just want their stuff to be out so I don’t have to go through there stuff.
“Kayla was amazing! She went above and beyond for our pup. We were out of the country for a week and we’re able to have a worry-free vacation because she was so communicative! Sent picture and updates. We could tell she really loved and cared for our pup! Highly recommend!”
About: I have taken care of senior pets, both dogs and cats, on numerous occasions. I have handled blindness, medications, and incontinence. Additionally, my cat has gone through surgery so I have taken care of stitches and wounds. I am currently working part time as a server. My hours tend to be flexible and I can get time off pretty easily if I know enough time in advance. Hours are typically 11-4 or 4-10 so I would have to work around that. I have petsat and stayed in peoples homes for years now. I always leave the home as clean or cleaner than it was when I got there. I respect personal items and spaces. I am a guest in your home and I will act as such!

And my 2 kitties fell in love with her! I have 1 kitty that is very scared of a lot of things and Marie was able to get her comfortable so much so to cuddle with her! Thank you so very much Marie!

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 Greenville 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 Greenville 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Greenville 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!

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 .

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.
