About: I am a dog owner myself and understands that your pet comes first! I have grown up having many dogs and aware of all different types of dogs and the attention they may need. I am a protective dog mom treat my own bundle of joy as my child and will do that same for yours while you are away. I love to run, take long walks and play with toys and will be able to to tire your dog out! I work from home ands sometimes in my office but my schedule is very flexible and will be able to work with your schedule and drop in/ walk whenever you need your pet to be and can also do vet visit if needed! 🐶
About: I've owned and loved dogs across the size spectrum from tiny lap dogs to large breeds, so I know firsthand that a Newfoundland and a Papillion (I have had both breeds) need very different kinds of care, energy, and attention. That range of experience means I can adapt to your dog's specific needs, whether that's a long run, a slow walk, or just quiet couch time. I have cared for the pets of my friends and family. I work part-time on weekend nights as a tour guide, which leaves me flexible and available for daytime dog sitting and walking throughout the week, plus overnight house sitting where I stay with your pet in the comfort of their own home. I prefer to care for pets in their own environment, where they're most comfortable. That said, I may be able to host a loveable pet at my pet-friendly apartment, depending on the breed and length of stay. My building has some breed restrictions, so please inquire if you're not sure whether your pet would be a fit.
About: I have lived with and loved dogs since I was born. I have best fur friends of my own. Sari and Basil. Both are comfortable around others; we are all excited to be around other pups of all sizes. I have an extremely flexible schedule and a welcome home. I live in a house in West Ashley that offers plenty of space as well as a huge fenced in yard, a park nearby which we will visit and plenty of walk ability. My son Lukas, 19, is also excited to be around more dogs and will love them as his own, as well. We can't wait to meet you all!! I work home home so your pup will never be Alone. I am available for dog walks, drop ins, boarding and over night stays. Looking forward to Meeting you! I have a fenced in yard for running and playing. I can be available for potty breaks, feeding and medication administration. Please let me know if you have any preferences
“Katherine did an excellent job. She was very communicative, followed all instructions perfectly, and made sure the cats' area was always nice and tidy. Would highly recommend!”
“From the moment I met Robin I could tell she would be so caring with my dogs. She was super thorough and you can tell she cares for your dogs like her own. Thankful to have found someone to trust with our doodles when we need it!”
About: My experience includes overnight pet sitting as well as regular daytime check ins. I have pet sit for many family and friends over the years. I currently do not have a job so I will have plenty of time to be with your animals and make sure they are getting what they need. I am always willing to crate your animals if needed or take them for walks with a leash. I want to make sure they are safe and content.
“Courtney walked our dog while we were gone for a week long trip. She came over to meet him before hand and was very easy to communicate with! Our pup loved her and we can tell he was well taken care of. We received updates and pictures consistently and she was always on time! I highly recommend Courtney :)”
About: I’ve always loved animals and enjoy spending time caring for pets of all kinds. I grew up in Ohio where I was active in 4H so I was taking care of animals daily. I’m dependable, patient, and will treat your pet like they’re part of my own family. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, medication reminders, or just extra attention while you’re away, I’m happy to help. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, so I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry friend is in good hands. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! 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! We are in a nice quiet area in an apartment. I love to go on walks to head over to the dog park!
“Amy did a great job taking care of our extremely shy cat while we were away, even coaxing her out of her hiding spots for treats/petting. We received updates from Amy daily and notes about how our cat was doing, and felt very comfortable that she was in good hands.”
“Rachel is amazing! She was always very responsive and took great care of my kitties. She always gave good updates with details and pics so I always felt at peace while I was away that my cats were well taken care of.”
About: Hi I’m Shelbe! I’m available to take the dog on walks during the day and house sit anytime. I have had dogs all my life and absolutely love them :) I work from home so it’s easy for me to walk the dog throughout the day! I enjoy long walks and would love to help you out when you’re dog needs potty breaks! I have a friendly golden retriever who loves other dogs and I’m comfortable taking care of your dog in your home. I usually notice dogs are a lot more comfortable in the space they are used to.
About: I’ve gained experience the last few years in taking care of our German Shepherd, Luna and sweet kitty, Cookie! I always dog sit for friends when they’re out of town and I’ve learned how to give pills to dogs. One of my friend’s dogs has allergy problems and has to take pills for it, so she had to teach me how to do that. I love playing fetch and taking dogs on walks! I also wouldn’t mind giving your dog a bath (or taking him/her to the pet store to bathe them there!). Feel free to message me with any questions you might have! I am available every day after 4:00 and every weekend as needed. I have a flexible schedule and have a good amount of free time. I will make sure your animal or animals get the care they need and make sure they are well taken care of no matter what!

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.

Pet 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!
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

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Johns Island on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 2,725 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Johns Island. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 .
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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Johns Island. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 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.
