About: Growing up, my family always had at least two dogs at all times. Although I don’t have a dog of my own, I love taking care of and spending time with other people’s dogs. 🩷 I am a teacher by day (Aug-end of May) and dog sitter on the side! I love kids but dogs truly have my heart. The bigger, the better! I am a teacher, so I will be gone from 6:30am-3:30pm. I have watched dogs while I’ve been at school who are used to be alone for an extended amount of time but but I will walk them prior to leaving for work and then spend the evening with them once I get home. :) ***If your dog isn’t used to being alone while I would be at work, I do have someone who can check on your pet and also take them out midday while I’m at work! :) Although I do not have a fenced in yard, my neighborhood community has a fenced in dog park area to give your dog(s) the space and freedom to roam as needed. :)
About: I’m a caring, dependable pet sitter who treats every pet like my own. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, including puppies, kittens, and seniors, as well as shy or high energy pets. I’m happy to follow routines for feeding, walks, playtime, and medications. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs and will keep you updated so you can feel confident while you’re away. My work schedule is fairly consistent, and I’m available for pet sitting in the mornings, early afternoons and most weekends. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and provide plenty of attention, walks, and playtime. I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for every pet. I’m experienced with dogs of different sizes and energy levels and will follow your instructions closely to keep your pet happy and safe.
“Haily did an amazing job with my super needy lab mix. She took him for walks, spent time with him all day and played fetch with him non stop because that’s all he ever wants and won’t stop until you stop lol she did so great and Hercules LOVED her! She gave me updates throughout my time away and made me feel extremely comfortable with her in my home. I would definitely book Haily again and would recommend her to anyone needing someone fun, knowledgeable, and loving to take care of their pets while they’re away! Thank you so much Haily!”
“We cannot recommend Lee highly enough! He cared for our two senior dogs while we were on an international trip, and the experience was truly exceptional from start to finish. I have a prior career in veterinary medicine, so I hold an extremely high standard when it comes to the care of my pets- especially since both of our dogs are seniors who require multiple medications twice daily. Lee exceeded every expectation. He followed all instructions flawlessly, managed their medication schedule without a single issue or complication, and cared for them with genuine attentiveness and compassion. Leaving them would normally have been incredibly stressful. This was the first time we have ever been away from home without a single issue arising- and that peace of mind is absolutely priceless to us. We truly did not worry for a second while we were gone. Lee also took wonderful care of our home and was outstanding with communication. He provided multiple daily updates, which kept us connected and reassured the entire time. Everything felt seamless and easy because of him. Because of Lee, we were able to fully enjoy every moment of our trip knowing our pets were safe, loved, and in the very best hands. We are beyond grateful and will absolutely be recommending him to everyone we know. Thank you again, Lee- you are truly one of a kind!”
“Michelle is amazing. She went above and beyond when she stayed at our house and watched the cats. We were able to relax on our vacation because she was so good about communicating and sending pictures of the cats. The house was spotless when we came home and she even watered the grass for us. Will definitely be using again!!!!”
“Riley was so great as a house/pet sitter. She spoiled our pets and took great care of our home. Our dog loves car rides so she took her on one every day (even got pup cups)! She even washed her sheets on her last day. We already booked her for another trip we have planned. Highly recommend!”
About: I had multiple dogs all of my life and have taken care of horses and barn cats. Love all animals and want to make sure that they are doing amazing while you are away. I have pet sitted on and off over the years for friends and even flew to Las Vegas to petsit for an extended weekend. I’m currently working full time but can do late night drop ins, walks and am available any time on the weekends. Typically on the weekends I am free/flexible for any time, except the few times I’m out of town. Before letting pets out in fenced areas I double check gates are closed and latched before letting out. For any pets that are walked I ensure that they are leashed before heading out the door and do not take the leash off until inside with the door closed. I have an escape artist of myself at home so I know what to look for. I can easily place your pet in a crate before leaving if that is necessary.
“Stacie is fantastic! She house sat our two young large energetic dogs with ease. She is a good communicator, responding quickly and also sending updates and photos. I recommend Stacie with no reservation and will be reaching out to her for all my future house-sitting needs.”
“Kerstin had a nice overnight stay with Sadie. The house was immaculate when I returned home, and Sadie was a happy girl. I know she had lots of attention and snuggles! I would definitely use Kerstin again.”
“Stephanie was an AMAZING sitter! She took perfect care of our two dogs, Ares & Ariel. She went above and beyond expectations, gained their trust, and quickly became one of their favorite people (and mine, too!). She is trustworthy, down to earth, and so helpful. I will definitely book with her again!”
About: I’ve had dogs of many different breeds since I was born, so I’m experienced with just about every type of dog. I currently have two miniature dachshunds and devote my time to them and to full time pet sitting. I also frequently care for my sister’s two dogs, who I consider my niece and nephew, a female poodle, Vivienne, and a male Maltese-Bichon Frise, Wally, six and three years old, respectively. Also my mother recently adopted a puppy from the shelter, we think he is a french bulldog/boston terrier/boxer mix, his name is Griswald and I looove him. I love dogs of all kinds and sizes, and I volunteer with Pug Rescue Austin when I can. My favorite (and only) form of exercise is dog walking, and I would love to care for your dog-child. I’m currently dog-sitting full time, so I am free to devote all my time to taking care of your dog. My dogs stay with their grandmother when I’m boarding a dog, so your dog-child will receive my full attention ❣️🐕 I make sure that the area is safe, clean, and has plenty of toys. Your baby is always allowed on my furniture, couch, bed, everything; to make themselves at home and hang out and cuddle with me. I maintain a feeding, walking, and potty time schedule.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 653 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Keowee. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Keowee walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Keowee maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Keowee 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!
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.
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 .
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
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.
