About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10 years old, whether it be my own, neighbors, friends, family, etc. I have also done dog sitting many times for people. I am currently not employed since I just got back from a long trip and in a few months I am leaving for another long trip so I’m going to be doing this as much as I can to make as much money as possible before the next time I leave. I’ll be sure to welcome them with a positive attitude and make sure I treat them the best I possibly can while keeping positive energy the whole time to keep your animal stress-free and as happy as possible. While also being sure they are safe and cared for at all times.

I am currently in Nursing school and have plenty of flexibility in between classes. I can adjust my schedule according to what is needed. I am also available on weekends.

About: I’ve cared for dogs, horses, and cats my whole life, and my deep love for animals truly sets me apart. I treat every pet with patience, comfort, and genuine kindness, and I love having the best time with them—walking or running with them is my favorite! My schedule is extremely flexible, making dog sitting and boarding a perfect fit for my daily routine. I’m home almost all day and currently looking for a remote job, so I have plenty of availability for feeding, playtime, and walks. I love being active, and having dogs join me for long walks and exercise is one of my favorite parts of pet care. Whether caring for dogs in my home or at a client’s home, I always focus on comfort, safety, and routine. I provide feeding, fresh water, regular walks, playtime, gentle exercise, and lots of affection. I keep their environment clean, follow any special instructions, and make sure every dog feels relaxed, loved, and well-cared for—just like they’re part of my own family.

About: I grew up having animals my entire life and treat my pets like they are just another member of the family, never like an animal. We currently don’t have any pets so we really love when furry friends come stay with us! I have always had a very special bond with dogs, we just seem to understand each other. I will take your dog for multiple smaller walks and a long walk or run at least once per day, depending on what your preferences are. I have a grassed yard that your dog will love to play around on. I will take extra care to ensure your dog is safe, well fed, watered and happy. I live with my husband and kids in a 5 bedroom 3/4 acre lot home. About me: I am currently a housewife and mom. I am home full time and my husband works from home so there will always be someone home to keep your pet company. My husband and I love traveling and have been to over 30 different countries so far. When we have free time or vacation you can bet we will be on the next plane we can. My home: Your dog(s) are allowed to be themselves in my home and have no furniture restrictions. They are even free to sleep in the bed with me if they'd like :) If you have any questions please feel free to contact me prior to booking and I’ll be happy to respond! I am home all day to care for your pets and they will be treated just like a member of my family! They will always have attention and are free to lay on furniture as they please. There will always be someone home to care for and keep your pet company. I will have multiple fresh water bowls available and take notes on their daily routines to make sure they are as comfortable as possible in their new environment.

About: I’ve had a dog for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always been second nature to me. I currently have a 7-year-old toy poodle named Winston who I trained myself, so I understand the importance of consistency, patience, and positive reinforcement. Beyond everyday care, I have hands-on experience with more specialized needs. I cared for a pregnant dog, assisted during birth, and helped raise the mother and her puppies until they went to their forever homes. I’ve also cared for my own senior poodle who had diabetes, so I’m comfortable supporting dogs who need extra attention, routine, and gentle care. I regularly dog sit for friends and family, and I treat every dog like my own with attentiveness, love, and structure. I’m very active and walk at least 3 miles a day with my dog, so whether your pup needs a high energy walk or a steady, consistent routine, I’m happy to match their pace. I work fully remote, which allows pet care to fit seamlessly into my daily routine. While my mornings occasionally include meetings, I’m otherwise flexible and just need to be available by phone for work. I’m consistently available on weekdays between 10am and 5pm for walks and drop-in visits, with some flexibility outside those hours when needed. Working from home also allows me to be responsive, punctual, and communicative so you always feel confident your pet is in good hands. I provide care exclusively in your home so your pet can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. During walks and drop-in visits, your pet’s safety is always my top priority. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, routines, and leash/harness preferences. I double-check doors, gates, and locks before leaving and make sure your pet is safely secured at all times. You can expect detailed updates and photos after each visit so you feel confident and informed. I treat every home with the same respect and care I would expect for my own.

About: Dogs have always held a special place in my heart. From the pups I grew up with to my soul dog Lacey, who has inspired this Rover journey. They are the purest creatures on this earth and taking the time to connect with each and every one that comes way, brings me so much happiness 🐾🤍 Life can be unpredictable so I’m here to make things a little easier! Whether it’s a spontaneous weekend trip or a daily walk, I’ve got you (and your best friend) covered ✔️ I am a proud & protective dog mama myself — when your pup is with me, you can trust they will be cared for as my own. I know just how important it is to feel confident when leaving a member of the family in someone else’s hands and I take that responsibility to heart 🫶🏼

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Hilton Head Island

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Hilton Head Island on Rover is $29 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $46 per visit. 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 986 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Hilton Head Island. 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.

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 Hilton Head Island 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 .

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.

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 .

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Hilton Head Island with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Hilton Head Island. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
