I work nightshift as a nurse 2 days a week. I have a lot of free time and enjoy being active. My dog gets walked multiple times a day. I have one golden retriever who loves other dogs!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years, including my own, and I truly treat every pup like family. I’m comfortable with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and I understand that each dog has unique routines and needs. One of my own dogs has diabetes, so I have hands-on experience with insulin injections, medication schedules, and closely monitoring health and behavior. I know how important consistency, patience, and attention to detail are when it comes to medical care, and I’m confident providing that level of care for other pets as well. Whether it’s walks, playtime, meals, or quiet companionship, I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work from home, which allows me to be present throughout the day for walks, meals, playtime, and companionship. Because of my flexible schedule, I’m able to adjust to each pet’s specific routine and provide consistent attention rather than long periods alone. Whether it’s regular potty breaks, medication timing, or just extra snuggles, I’m able to be attentive and responsive to each pet’s needs. Creating a safe, calm, and loving environment is my top priority. In my home, pets have access to a large, fully fenced backyard for supervised outdoor time and a medium-sized doggie door for easy potty breaks. I have two friendly small dogs who are well-socialized and do great with visiting pets. I also have four teenage children who love dogs and are gentle, respectful, and experienced around them. All interactions are supervised to ensure every pet feels comfortable and secure. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routines closely and respect their space, keeping things consistent so pets feel safe and relaxed. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any specific instructions to provide dependable, trustworthy care
“Erin was so great with our pups and so attentive to them. She made sure they were well taken care of, and made sure they had plenty of interactive play time during her drop in! Love that she keeps me updated throughout the drop in and shares tons of photos! Very flexible and easy to work with my difficult schedule and last minute needs!”
About: Hi! I’m an animal lover! I’ve had dogs, cats, and even some farm animals. I’ve had my oldest son, Tut, for 6 years now and my youngest daughter, Nunu, for almost 2 years. They are absolutely spoiled. If I was to care for your baby, they’d get all the play time, belly rubs, and walks they could handle. For drop ins and walks, I’ll love and adore any pet I get the pleasure of looking after. If you’re a busy bee, let me help with your fur babies! I’m currently working full-time during the week but I can do morning and evening drop-in’s/walks during the week. My weekends are pretty open and I am usually in Charleston during my free time. I have two cats of my own so I am use to full time care for both. I’ve cared for all ages of cats and dogs so I am pretty well equipped to handle all ages. My previous baby, Royal, took medication everyday so I am use to administering oral medication and keeping a medication schedule. My goal is to keep you and your babies happy. Just let me know what they need and I’ll make it happen.

About: I have always been around dogs since I was born. I adore animals and taking care of them as well as owning them. My neighbors, friends, family, and clients have trusted me to walk, bathe, feed and play with their dogs. Growing up I have had three Rhodesian Ridgebacks so I am used to large dogs as well. Additionally I have owned a cat, and horseback ride on the side. I'm an every-animal lover:)! I start nursing school the last week of August, and will mostly be available on weekends and Thursdays. I can work out a more flexible weekday schedule once I am able to get to know my academic schedule better! I currently live in an apartment complex and do not have any pets at this time. It is easy for me to drive to locations for dog-walking. For dog-sitting I cannot at my apartment, but can drive or walk to owner's house.

Alyssa took such great care of my cats! I appreciated the detailed updates from her visits and her keeping an eye on Charlotte's bathroom habits. She has won over my sassy, energetic cat that requires extra play and my sweet, shy cat that has to take a regular supplement. I can relax when I'm away knowing Alyssa is caring for my cats!
Thank you Lenya for watching Smudge, once again. You made me feel at ease, knowing that you were familiar with my situation as well as taking care of Smudge in the past. I hope to be able to rely on you in the future for your excellent care of Smudge. Thanks 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.
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.
