“Sierra was absolutely amazing! She was available last minute and took such great care of my dog Bonnie. My puppy can be hyper, and very needy, Sierra handled her beautifully. Extensive walks, treats, play time, feeding time and lots of belly rubs! I will 100% hire her again!!!”
About: As a lifelong dog owner, I've spent years caring for dogs and understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. I've dog-sat for family, friends, and neighbors and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I'm comfortable with daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, crate-trained dogs, and providing lots of attention and affection. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away, while keeping you updated so you can have peace of mind. I work full-time during the week but have flexibility in my schedule to provide reliable pet care. I am available for walks and drop-in visits most afternoons and evenings, and I am available during my lunch breaks for select visits depending on location. I am also free most weekends and can provide plenty of attention, exercise, and care for your pets. I am committed to being dependable, communicative, and accommodating whenever possible Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a lifelong dog owner, I understand the importance of following each pet's routine, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any special instructions. I always keep dogs securely leashed during walks, pay close attention to their behavior, and provide regular updates to owners. Whether caring for your pet in your home or during walks and drop-in visits, I will treat them with the same care, patience, and attention I would give my own pets.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Johns Island
Haley was GREAT with our two black labs (10yrs and 18 weeks) She came over for a meet and greet and the pups (and the cats too) warmed up to her immediately. She always showed up on time and stayed at least a half an hour. She took lots of pictures and communicated everything that happened on her visit well. We would definitely recommend Haley and will book her again!
Taylor was fantastic and agreed to a last-minute booking when we needed someone quickly! She came and did a meet & greet, and had a very calm trustworthy presence which helped ease my anxiety. She was punctual and communicative and I would definitely book with her again.

Amber was great and would I’d gladly recommend her to anyone who is in need. She took the time to come and meet my dog and write down all of the details. She didn’t just drop in and let my boy out for a bathroom break, she also took him on walks around the neighborhood, played fetch, and cleaned up after his excited pees - what more can you ask for? If you want peace of mind and good communication, Amber is just that.
Isabella was amazing with my pup, Penny! My dog doesn't always get on with new people, but Penny warmed up right away, which says a lot. She was super communicative with photos of their walks and their day. She brought in all our holiday packages and left the house even cleaner than when I left! Highly highly recommend!
I had a great first experience with Amber. She took excellent care of my two dogs, including one with special needs, and handled everything with care and reliability. Communication was good-and I was out of touch in meetings most of the day. I felt confident they were in good hands and would gladly have her sit for us again.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Johns 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 Johns 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.

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 Johns 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.
