“Marina was great! She followed instructions and my dogs were very happy! I have zero complaints whatsoever and I have no doubt that my dogs were taken care of well while I was gone.”
About: In addition to having my own dog, a 5 year old black lab mix and caring for other family dogs, I also have 10 years of experience volunteering in animal shelters. I worked with cats and dogs in the shelters. For the cats I helped socialize them to get them ready for fostering/adopting. For the dogs I also helped them socialize with people and other dogs, I worked more with walking dogs daily, using commands and shelter led leash walking habits. I am a big animal lover and would love to help care for and get your dogs out of the house when you are unable to. I am currently a full time high school teacher M-F. On Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday I would be available after 4:45 to care for your pets. Wednesdays would need to be after 6:30. On the weekends my availability would be more flexible and would need to be discussed. I would be able to be available after 10am until the evening (when given proper notice) I would need to care for your pet(s) in your home or area as my current living conditions do not allow animals without registration and additional fees. I would be happy to walk dogs in neighborhoods, at dog parks if comfortable with the owners, or in backyards to exercise them and burn off some energy.
“Rebecca is absolutely amazing! This was my first Rover experience and she made it fantastic! My girl is 15 years old so leaving her was a bit nerve racking, but Rebecca gave me all of the reassurance needed! 100% recommend!”
About: I'm patient and loving towards fun, furry, creatures. Growing up, I had dogs all my life, and I'm currently a dog Mom to a Cocker Spaniel puppy named Phoebe, and I have two cats named Beau and Janet. I currently live in Ladson within 15 minutes to downtown Summerville. Our home is very neat and tidy because we want to make sure our dog doesn't eat anything she shouldn't, so it is a complete safe zone for your dog. I've grown up with a large range of dogs, my first being a Labrador, as well as Boston Terriers and then later on, a 120 lb German Shepherd. I've also had many cats throughout my life and just adore them. * Dog-walking - please let me know of any parks in your area you usually walk your pup and for how long you'd prefer. * Please inform me of any medications needed for your pet. I have plenty of experience with medications due to my previous cat who was asthmatic. * I have two small children (18 months and 4 years old) and at times, I may have them with me for drop ins and walks. Please let me know if your pet is kid friendly so I can make sure to keep them home during drop-ins.
“Bridgette is absolutely wonderful! From the first message, she was very friendly, kind and so easy to communicate with. She took such a great care of our girl Mia doing multiple visits to our home and letting her out, making sure she had plenty of play time and was ready for a treat and a nap after! Can’t recommend Bridgette enough!!”

About: Hi! I’m an avid animal lover with a lifetime of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, along with birds, hamsters, guinea pigs, chipmunks, and even goldfish. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do — it’s truly who I am. I understand that our fur babies are special souls and cherished members of the family. When your beloved pet is in my care, they’ll be treated with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. It would be an absolute honor to provide a safe, happy, and comforting experience for your baby while you’re away. My days start early — which means I have plenty of availability during the day, evenings, and on weekends. I love having that balance in my day, especially when it comes to spending time with animals. At home, life revolves around my two dogs — a standard poodle and a terrier mix — along with my two rescue cats, all adopted from different rescues. Caring for them is part of my daily routine, from morning feedings and walks to evening playtime and snuggles. My home is calm, loving, and pet-centered, and I truly enjoy creating a safe, happy environment where animals feel comfortable and cared for. 🐾 When caring for your pet in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I know how important consistency is, so I will follow your instructions closely — from feeding schedules and walk times to medications, play preferences, and bedtime routines. I’ll make sure your pet receives plenty of love, attention, exercise, and companionship while you’re away. Whether that means long walks, backyard playtime, enrichment activities, or quiet cuddle time, I adjust to your pet’s personality and energy level. I’m also respectful of your home. I’ll keep things tidy, provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind, and ensure your pet feels safe, secure, and cared for in their own familiar environment. Your baby will be treated like family every step of the way.
“Dawn was great with my pups, even going on the hunt for one of them after my landscapers left the gate open and he got out. She made my trip stress-free, sending pics and taking great care of them.”
About: I have cared for family and friends pets for my entire life and cared for my own by myself for over 2 years. I have experience in the veterinary field so I am confident in my ability to care for medically complex animals. I work full time currently in Mount Pleasant, however; my hours are flexible and I have the ability to take care of your animals at your home during my off hours. I currently have two cats in my apartment, they are fed wet food in the morning and night and given the correct medications and supplements needed morning and night. I also support their enrichment needs by daily playtime and providing toys and treats.
“Mary Kay was wonderful with my service dog Sunshine and his many “rules.” She was personable and kind, and he took to her instantly. I will definitely be having her back with Sunshine soon!”
About: My family has had cats, dogs, rabbits, and horses for almost my entire life. I have grown up around pets and have tremendous love for all of them. I have taken my Australian Shepherd to puppy school and learned from a professional how to handle him, and we have owned various breeds of dogs and cats. My mom and I captured, neutered, and re-homed feral cats that had wandered into our old property. Now, I own one of those (not-so-feral-anymore) cats, Jade, and a foster fail, Gia, along with my dog Ozzie. I have been riding and showing horses since I was 9 years old and have a lot of experience in taking care of large animals. I was a D1 equestrian athlete at UGA, and I'm now a veterinary assistant for Banfield! I have some extra days off and I would love to spend that time getting to meet and take care of your furbabies! I am a full-time veterinary assistant at Banfield, so my schedule is very irregular. I get my schedule a month in advance, but it will not always be the same. I will make sure that my availability is reflected in Rover as far out as possible so that I can take care of you and your pet! My dog and cats roam my apartment freely throughout the day, and they all sleep with me on the bed at night. We play with my Australian Shepherds 4-5 times a day, with his favorite game, frisbee! In a clients home, I am open to caring for their pet anyway they would like, whether they need them to be in a crate, go for a walk, or to play ball!
“The best!!!! Super nice and very dependable. Had to call her last minute to go check in because we were nervous about the care we had booked and she was so helpful and made sure our cats were okay and well taken care of!”
“I needed some help getting my 80 pound dog into the car so I could take her for a checkup after knee surgery. Jonathan worked with our schedule and made sure our senior puppo could make it to her vet appt. Thanks again Jonathan!”

Joshua was able to accommodate my last minute request when our other sitter fell through! I am so glad I came across his profile and will definitely use him again in the future. He was quick to respond to my request, communicated well and followed my care instructions perfectly. My cats also loved him, so that’s always a plus :)
Gillian was great with our golden retriever! We had to be out of town for the day and she helped us out, even though we reached out last minute. She was very communicative and timely. She sent us lots of pictures of our boy and texted me each time she left our house. I definitely recommend her to anyone in need of a pet sitter!
We had to book last minute and Anna was very accommodating. She is always punctual and takes such good care of our animals, they love her! Communicates frequently and takes the best pictures during the visits for our updates. 100% recommend and we will always use her for our pets.
Alyssa is awesome and very thoughtful! We never worry about our kitties when they are in her care. She always keeps in close communication and asks questions when we forget to include something in our care instructions. I highly recommend her to anyone who needs care for their animals!
Paul has been a great and reliable sitter for my 3 cats for a month now while I’ve been out of the country. He provided pictures every time and made sure all their needs were met, and followed up with me consistently in case he needed any thing for the cats. I had the pleasure having him look after my kitties and will surely be looking to work with him in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Ladson is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $12 and $34 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 2,675 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Ladson. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Ladson. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
