“Meredith has done a fabulous job taking care of our 2 Goldens and senior terrier multiple times. Very reliable, sends great pictures everyday and our crew loves to see her!!”

“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.”

About: I’ve been caring for pets for as long as I can remember, growing up in a home that always had animals. Since I was 18, I’ve fostered both puppies and senior pets, so I’m very comfortable with a wide range of needs—from high-energy animals who need structure and engagement, to older pets who require a gentler, more patient approach. In college, I became known as the go-to pet sitter in my apartment community, regularly helping neighbors with walking, drop-ins, and overnight care. Now, I continue to stay involved by assisting with a local pet sitting company here on the island. What sets me apart is my experience, reliability, and genuine love for animals. I understand that every pet is different, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for like they’re my own. I work full-time as a Teacher of the Visually Impaired (TVI) and Orientation & Mobility Specialist (O&M), which means I’m dependable, attentive, and used to caring for others. I’m available before and after work, as well as weekends, and I’m committed to providing consistent, high-quality care. I work full-time Monday through Friday, leaving by 6:00 a.m. and returning around 4:00 p.m and sometimes earlier. I am available before and after work for drop-ins, walks, or check-ins. I’m home all day on weekends, which allows me to provide full-day care, overnight stays, or extended visits. I provide pet care exclusively in your home, so your pets stay safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I do not accept pets in my home, as I have two dogs who aren’t comfortable with other animals. I follow your instructions carefully for feeding, medications, exercise, and routines, and I make sure pets are safe and well cared for while enjoying attention, play, and a calm environment. My goal is to create a stress-free experience so your pets feel loved and secure while you’re away.
“During our meet and greet a week ago, I knew Candice would be perfect to take care of my 3 pups. Her kind demeanor set the tone for the girls, and it was evident that Candice was very comfortable, and confident, with what I was looking for in a dog sitter. Her communication was great. She brought in an Amazon package that was left at the door. 5 photos for a 30-min drop-in, both inside and out with details of what they did. I look forward to having Candice visit us again!”

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.

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.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .

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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
