“Annie and granny Grace kept my dog for a week while I was on vacation. My dog became ill. Annie alerted me and took all the appropriate measures to make sure he was healthy and well taken care of. I trust her 100% she went above and beyond in my opinion.”
“I had the pleasure of working with Nancy at the last minute. She was able to watch our dog(Baby) and I cannot be more happy. Baby is usually anxious around anyone she meets for the first time. Not so with Nancy. She fell in love with Nancy when she first saw her. Nancy, communicated by letting us know how things were going and sending us pictures. Although it was just for one night, I will definitely be a repeat client. Thank you again, Nancy!”

“Racheal went above and beyond—sending regular updates, photos, and truly treating our pup like family. It was clear from the moment we met that they genuinely love animals and take their responsibility seriously. Our dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We’ll absolutely be booking again. Thank you for your outstanding service! Stephen”
About: I currently have a dog Enigma.. She is a little mixed breed girl. When I stay at your house she does need to come with me. If it is necessary to keep her separated from your pack , that is not a problem. I always bring her carrier with us and if need be she would have no interactions with your animals. I have references who can attest to this. She likes cats, but I will not let her near yours When I look for a pet sitter I am looking for someone who will take care of my fur babies like I do. I have experience pet sitting with many sizes, breeds and ages of animals and specialize in big dogs and specical needs animals. I have a client that is blind, aand one that is deaf and another that was a diabetic. I have cared for dogs, cats, horses, cows,, ponies,, rats, reptiles, a tortoise, chickens, a miniature donkey, birds, goats, pigs and fish. I have watched up to 50 animals while working with animal sanctuaries and I have experience administrating medications. I can provide boarding for cats and dogs. I also courier animals to their new families across the country by either flying or driving. I love animals and will treat your animals as if they were my own. I am available nights, weekends and holidays. Having worked with animals I try and observe them to better relate to their wants and needs. Sending pics and updates daily to keep you posted on how your fur babies are doing is very important to me. Please do not assume that I will care for any other animals that you have for no charge. I Animal caretaker is my fill time job. I absolutely LOVE what I do! I find it very relaxing and rewarding to spend time with animals.

The other works occasionally and is there when needed. weekends we a both available. We live on a dead end so not many cars pass by. We also have 1 senior dog who is small and tranquil. There is lots of room in the house for dogs to have plenty of space if they would like.
“This was my first time using Rover and Elizabeth made it a great experience. She responded quickly to all inquiries. She was easy to communicate with and was willing to pick up my dog from a neighbor's house which went smoothly as well. She kept us updated including sending photos and videos. Her dog even got our sort of aloof and 'grumpy old man' dog to play! It was nice knowing we were leaving our dog in good hands and we will happily use her again.”
“Anna was fabulous. She sent us photos of Mallory while we were on vacation. When we went to pick her up, Mallory greeted us and then ran back to Anna! We will definately use Anna again. Thank you.”

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
97% of sitters in Jefferson can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Jefferson home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Jefferson.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in SC ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
