“I am so lucky to have found Dace! I had a work trip which is the longest I have been away from my special needs cat, Wolf, who has seizures. Dace is a wonderful and caring petsitter who took great care of Wolf. My nerves were eased knowing he was in good hands. She checked on him 3 times a day, administered his seizure meds, gave food/snacks/etc, and sent photos with updates. I will definitely book with Dace again in the future and I highly recommend her if you need a caring and reliable pet sitter! Thank you so much for taking such great care of my Wolf!!!”
About: I have owned dogs my entire life and have been raising my 9 year old pup since she was 8 weeks old! I’m a huge lover of animals, but I’m definitely a dog person. I’m currently on a reduced work schedule, as I own a cleaning business and am expecting my first child. With that being said, I work about 4 hours each morning Monday through Friday and I’m home the rest of the time. I have a big yard with room to roam on the anchored leads. I also have two loving and friendly dogs, aged 9 and 14, who love company! Special needs can be accommodated and crates can be utilized if necessary. Potty breaks are about every 2-3 hours but can be more frequent if necessary
About: Hi! I’m Amy, and I truly believe pets are family. I’m a responsible, and compassionate person who understands how important it is to feel confident that your beloved pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I have a genuine love for animals and experience caring for dogs with different personalities, needs, and routines. I grew up on a farm and have led a pet centered life since. I am patient, attentive, and dependable, and I take the time to make pets feel comfortable and loved in my care. Whether your pet wants long walks and lots of playtime, quiet companionship, or simply someone to stick to their familiar routine, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I also understand that every pet—and every pet parent—is different. I’m careful about following feeding instructions, medications, schedules, exercise routines, and any special requests. I’ll treat your home with the same respect and care I give your pets. Most importantly, I want you to be able to relax while you’re away. I’m happy to provide updates, photos, and plenty of reassurance so you know your furry family member is doing well. I would love the opportunity to get to know you and your pets and become someone you can trust whenever they need a little extra love and care. ❤️ I currently do not work so I have plenty of time to drop in and spend time with your pet! Feeding, walking, crating and playing with your pets is my focus! I will always care for your pet as if it is my own. I have two wonderful dogs and a fenced in yard for extended stays

I can also house set with prior arrangements. I look forward to helping! I am an attention to detail person. I will care for your fur baby as it was my own, so you will have no worries while away.

When I come to take care of, play with, and walk your dogs I will dedicate my time to loving them. I would love to be able to take them to the dog park where they can also interact with other animals while you’re away! I am currently home full time and am available for drop ins or house sittings when needed! I am also flexible and can accept last minute bookings. When in your home, I would love to take your fur babies for walks, to dog parks, anything you already do with them to make them the most comfortable!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Holden Beach is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $28 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 714 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Holden Beach. 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 Holden Beach. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
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.
