About: We know how hard it is to find good care for your pups when you go out of town. Your pups will feel like they are on vacation too, because we will treat your best friend as part of our family with lots of TLC, walks and fun! We now have plenty of time and love to give your pets. We will provide walks every day, ball time and snuggles, water play if they want to. We have a fenced yard and plenty of love to keep your pup safe, happy and healthy. We can also provide day care for those long work days. Neil and I love to take walks, play in the back yard and snuggle on the couch. We are fortunate for one of us to be home 24/7 for your pups and ours! We have a beautiful half acre fenced yard, and we spend alot of time outdoors, except in this heat! We have a safe and lovely neighborhood for walks. We also take mid-day breaks for some rest. My husband or I am almost always home, so no one is ever alone for long! We also have the room to separate for meal time or breaks. No pets are ever outside alone.

About: We live in Tanner Plantation with our three cats and three dogs. As lifelong animal lovers and pet owners, we understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. Whether you have a playful pup or a shy cat, we'll provide loving, reliable care and keep you updated every step of the way. We've cared for pets with a wide range of medical needs, dietary restrictions, and unique routines. From administering medication and following specialized feeding protocols to accommodating quirky preferences, we're committed to providing the same attentive care your pets receive at home. I'll be handling most visits during the week, while my husband joins me for meet-and-greets and serves as a backup when needed. Together, we provide dependable care for both dogs and cats, treating every pet like a member of the family. Our retriever mix, Richie, has megaesophagus, myasthenia gravis, and cancer. He eats all of his meals in a Bailey chair (think doggy high chair!) and requires medication multiple times a day. Caring for Richie has made us highly attentive to health monitoring, medication schedules, and specialized feeding requirements. Our coonhound, Joanie, takes daily medication for anxiety, giving us experience providing calm, patient care for pets who need extra support. Our German Shepherd, Nami, reminds us that every pet has their own quirks. She refuses to eat breakfast anywhere but her kennel and insists on eating her afternoon meal in the office while listening to emo music. Yes, really! 🖤🎵🐶 We're also dedicated cat people and understand that cats often need a different approach than dogs: patience, respect for routines, and attention to subtle changes in behavior, appetite, and litter box habits. Belle, our orange tabby, is convinced she's one of the dogs, while Jane and Lizzie, our mischievous Oreo twins, keep life entertaining with their talent for stealing household items and hiding them in their favorite boxes. Living with three cats has taught us the importance of earning a cat's trust, respecting their boundaries, and maintaining the routines that help them feel safe and comfortable. From complex medical care to honoring each pet's unique personality and routine, we believe every animal deserves patience, attention, and lots of love. ❤️🐾 Pet care is already a central part of our daily routine. As pet parents of six rescue animals, our days revolve around feeding schedules, walks, medication administration, playtime, litter box cleaning, and making sure each pet gets the individual attention they need. Because we are accustomed to caring for pets with unique personalities, medical needs, and special routines, adding drop-in visits fits naturally into our schedule. We currently have availability for drop-in visits and enjoy spending time with pets, whether that means playtime, administering medications, or simply providing companionship while their family is away. Caring for animals isn't just something we do—it's something we genuinely love. We will treat your pets with the same patience, attention, and affection that we give my own rescue crew. 🐾❤️ For drop-in visits, we care for pets in their own home where they are most comfortable. We follow each pet's usual routine, including feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, medication administration (if needed), walks, litter box cleaning, playtime, and plenty of affection. We take the time to learn each pet's personality and preferences, so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. 🐾❤️

About: There’s nothing like the excitement and joy of a dog when you walk in the door. Being their new friend, protector, and comfort when mom or dad is away is both rewarding and so much fun! Friends, families, neighbors, and acquaintances have trusted me to care for their pets as if they were my own. I rescued my own cat from a shelter and moved across the country with her, then later was a foster fail twice for a 3 week old rescue puppy, he’s now a 60lb lab-Pitt mix and a 4-week old rescue puppy that’s now a 50 pound husky German shepherd mix. The dogs and my cat are the best of friends and she definitely is the boss of the bunch! I have a fairly flexible schedule for walks and drop ins, especially in the park circle/ Hanahan/ North Charleston area! I work Monday-Friday and have a flexible hour lunch break for mid-day drop ins or walks and available on the weekends! With 3 fur babies of my own I’m unavailable for overnight stays but happy to drop in early in the mornings! Safety is a top priority and I protect the pets I care for as if they were my own! I also always want to make the feel safe and cared for! I’ve learned every animal is different and to take things at their pace , especially if it’s an adult animal and I’m caring for them for the first time and I’m a stranger essentially in their home without their family. If that means sitting on the floor and patiently wait for them to approach me to build that trust and really follow their lead !

About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs for about 7 years, including pets belonging to friends, family, and neighbors. I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, cuddles, and basic grooming. I’m patient, dependable, and genuinely love spending time with animals, so I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and spoiled while they’re with me. I work full-time, but I still have plenty of time to give your pets love and attention! I’m available most evenings and weekends for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and cuddles, and I’ll always do my best to work with your pet’s normal routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I’ll follow any feeding, walking, medication, or routine instructions you give me, keep a close eye on them, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable 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.

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: Ive had my dog since she was a puppy, she is well socialized and loves meeting other dogs and sharing her space! I have experience with puppies, high energy dogs, older dogs, and providing medication to pets. I am home on weekends but would love to take your pup out for walks if it’s okay with you! If walks aren’t something you’re comfortable with I also have a fully fenced yard for dogs to run around in. I’m available for boarding on weekends, I’m an home body so I’ll be with them almost all of the time. I can do drop ins during the week after work! I have a fenced yard and my own dog who loves to make new friends. I allow dogs on furniture and in bed but can crate your fuzzy friend if that is how they are trained for sleep. I’ve had my dog since she was a baby and I frequently pet sit for friends.

About: I've pet sit of a variety of dogs for many years, as well as grown up with them for my whole life. Friends and relatives have relied on me to watch, walk, and feed their pets. I am available on weekdays during the evenings, and mid day for an hour to check in. I am also available anytime during the weekends! Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priority. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, so I treat every pet as my own. Whether I'm providing walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care I'll follow your instructions carefully and provide plenty of attention and playtime. I'll always communicate clearly, send updates, and make sure everyone feels safe and comfortable.

About: I have always been surrounded by animals my whole life. Back home I have 8 doggos between the ages of two and five who are unique in their own ways. I have two chihuahua/dachshund mixes,a boxer/pit bull mix, a black lab, a chocolate lab, a yellow lab, and two red labs. Every day is a new adventure for sure. I have personal experience with high energy doggos, reactive dogs, anxious dogs, potty accidents, special diets, kennel training, leash training, puppies, senior care, sick animals, puppy parvo, seizures, ear infections, fleas, ticks, dog and cat pregnancy, dog attacks, surgery care, wound care, animal grooming (nails, teeth, eyes, dry skin, coats), and much more. I sincerely enjoy giving all fur babies all the love and dedication they deserve. While I know it is hard to find someone who is willing and prepared to provide the care a pet needs, I am more than honored to be able to work with you if the fit is right. I am currently working full time at a coffee shop. Most of my shifts are early morning, so I am usually available anytime after 2-4:30 pm. I will always treat your pets with the utmost respect as I understand how important they are to you. I would want my own doggos to be treated the same. I know everyone has different standards when it comes to feeding, walking, outside time, etc. so I am more than willing to learn your pet's schedule to be able to benefit all involved. At no point would I ever try to input my own practices onto your animals without your permission.

About: Super excited to watch your pups! I've had dogs all my life and love them with all my heart and soul! I'm active and willing to play and show them tons of love and give them endless cuddles! My fiance and I live together and love animals equally and are excited to welcome your dogs into our home for a vacay! It'll be the best, most loving vacay they'll ever have! I work full time but am a teacher so I am up early and come straight home when I get off. I am gone for about 8 hours. I remain home for the remainder of the evening when I get home so I will have plenty of time to spend with your pup! I have a relatively large apartment that has plenty of space for dogs of any size to move around comfortably. Also, plenty of crate space as well if that is what you prefer.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Hanahan

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Hanahan is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $31 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 2,653 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Hanahan. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 with handling special pet needs in Hanahan. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% can help with daily exercise

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.

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.
