About: I have lived my whole life caring for dogs from 1 to 16 years old. I have experience caring for senior dogs, as well as dogs with high energy. I have dog sat for weeks at a time in the owners home and taken dogs on frequent long walks. I can clean up little accidents and bathe dogs. I am currently working part time at a retail shop this summer. I work 3-4 days a week and no more than 6 hours at a time. During the school year, I am a high school special education teacher and can sit overnights and evenings. I am strict about the rules and regulations a client leave for me. I also am very respectful of the animal and their needs and wants.
About: I have been taking care of dogs for as long as I can remember - whether they were my own or belonged to friends and family. I have had the pleasure of raising numerous puppies, and have provided care for older dogs as well, so I am comfortable with all ages. I absolutely ADORE pups, and would love to give your pet(s) all of the love, attention and exercise they need - so you can always be sure they are in the best hands! I work from home full time, so my schedule is very flexible to fit your needs. If mid day services are needed, I would be happy to provide that. I live on Hilton Head Island. I have a house with a big fenced in back yard, lots of land to run on, and a friendly dog to keep your pup company.
About: All my life, my family has owned and cared for may types of pets. Besides personal pets, I’ve also house/pet sat for weeks, weekends, and summers for many families all over the low country. I am a full time teacher in Beaufort County so my schedule will permit for weekend care, evening care and school district breaks (Winter, Spring, and summer). I prefer pet care in the home of the owner so they will feel comfortable in their own environment. Ensuing the pets are safe and comfortable is the most important part of the job.
About: I have hands-on experience caring for both small dogs and larger breeds up to 70 pounds, as well as cats with special routines and unique needs. Whether it’s administering medication, following specific feeding schedules, or providing extra patience and attention, I’m committed to ensuring pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their humans are away. As long as pet owners provide guidance on their animals’ specific needs, I am more than happy to care for any type of animal, including reptiles, birds, or any other species. I’m always eager to learn and follow any specialized care routines to ensure every pet feels comfortable and well cared for. I am available for pet sitting and drop-in visits on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays at any time. On Fridays, I am available after 7:30 PM, and on Sundays, I am available after 6 PM. I am happy to accommodate overnight stays and work around your pet’s needs—feel free to reach out with any questions! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for them at home or taking them on a walk, I stay attentive, aware, and proactive to ensure their well-being at all times. I follow any specific instructions regarding their routine, diet, medications, and exercise needs, making sure they feel secure and at ease. During walks, I use secure leashes, remain vigilant of surroundings, and adapt to each pet’s pace and comfort level. I avoid potential hazards, keep a close eye on their behavior, and ensure they stay safe in all environments. While in your home, I respect your space and maintain a clean, secure, and peaceful environment. I make sure doors and gates are properly secured, follow any household rules, and treat your home with the same level of care and responsibility as I would my own. With me, you can trust that your pets and home are in responsible, loving hands.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Hilton Head Island
Amy is an extraordinary girl and pet sitter. She is a local and very knowledgeable about the area and what she does. We had such a stress free time away over a long weekend and got regular updates. Amy is very conscientious and professional while being friendly at the same time. We highly recommend her and would definitely book her again!!
Gabriela was responsive immediately, set up a meet & greet, and took care of our pup the next day. We got great photos reassuring us she had paid careful attention and our high energy Cocoa was in good hands. Most importantly we came home to a calm happy pup. I’d definitely use Gabriela again.
Sarah is AMAZING! Our Bogey is so skittish with new people and she took the extra time to come and meet him a few times before being left alone with him and they are true buddies now. She not only came by and walked him, but spent time hanging out with him, petting him and giving him some love and a friend while we were out for the day, all with sending us pictures and even video. Sarah, we'll be calling you for as long as you'll have us!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Hilton Head Island stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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.

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 calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
