About: Being around animals for many years, I’ve grown to love providing services for our little friends. I have started dog sitting and dog walking, and even providing basic baths. I am available on all week days before 10, 1-3 mid days, and after 10pm. I am free for the whole day on Sunday :) I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. I also follow all instructions by the owner including feeding schedules and exercise

About: Update: I will not be available Oct 27 - Nov 2. This has happened to me and it is so very unfortunate I have to say this...If you have a senior dog, please let me know of any changes to their health!!!!! If you believe your pup is nearing end of life, PLEASE do not ask me to keep your dog. It is very heartbreaking and your pet wants YOU and needs YOU during his or her last days because YOU are their entire world. I love dogs!! I've fostered many dogs and volunteered at many shelters. I've had seniors and even fostered one with spina bifida. My first two loves were English Bulldogs. I have lots of experience with them and know that smooshy face breeds are much more delicate than other breeds. I absolutly love them! I'm not good with extremely energtic dogs, but can handle anything else. I am semi-retired. I currently work part time on Friday and Sundays with an occasional third day, so I am home a lot. I have plenty of time to devote to your pooch. In my home, I care for your pet just as I care for mine. Of course, with your direction implemented also. I do have a pool, so I will need to know how your dog is around pools, or if they have zero experience with pools, I will need to know that as well.

About: I’ve had many dogs, cats, you name it. I have raised Labradoodles, Beagles, Treeing Walker hounds, American Pit Bull Terriers, and many more sweet breeds. I have worked with dogs in all atmospheres, including, grooming. I have successfully potty trained, crate trained, and obedience trained different animals over the past 15 years. I absolutely love checking in on the pups, taking them on walks and playing with them while owners are out! :) When coming to client’s homes- I will follow their instructions on what their pets needs are! I LOVE fur babies! My labradoodle and I spend a lot of time together. I love taking her outside to play, especially when a few toys and other pups are involved. We love going on walks and playing in the lake. I go to school and work from home. I follow instructions at each home with each client and pet to make sure everyone is comfortable. Anything special that needs extra attention, just let me know!

About: I care about animals, I care about not just keeping them alive but making sure they enjoy their lives. I have had cats and dogs my whole life, and I am my families go to pet sitter when they go out of town! I believe each animal has its own unique personality, likes and dislikes, and I enjoy figuring them out! I work remotely from my laptop, so if I’m staying at your home, I won’t have to leave for work! I do not work Saturdays or Sundays so I’m available sun up to sun down on those days for walking and/or check ins! Monday-Friday I have 5 hours off during the middle of the day, 11am-4pm in which I’ll be available. I care for pets by of course following every guideline you give me, but also by making sure they feel just as much love from me as they would’ve felt had you not left. So you can feel sure your pets won’t get too sad or lonely. (:

About: I have been stepping in to take care of pets for the last 5 years. I had cats my entire childhood, but always had neighbors with dogs. I can walk them, scoop poo, and play with them with no issue. I’m a best fit for houses with both cats and dogs, and I’m open to caring for other animals as well (birds, lizards, snakes, etc.) with proper instructions! While in college I pet sit regularly for a dog with high medical needs (seizures, diabetes, etc.) and am very good at following instructions for their medication and care. Overall, I love watching over creatures that some might consider “finicky or particular.” It’s rewarding to help them stay comfortable while their favorite person is away. I’m currently working part time (15-20hrs) as a server, so the days that I work varies week to week. However, I don’t work weekends, and I’m never at work for longer than 8 hours (most shifts are 4-6hours). I can easily visit your pet/house in the morning, go to work, and return to check on them in the afternoon/evening. On days that I’m not working, I can check more frequently and stay longer. I will feed, give medication, scoop litter boxes, and play/walk your pets according to their needs. For general house sitting, I can water plants and bring in mail/packages if requested! For stays that are 3 days+, I will also clean water bowls/food dispensers. I am open to light cleaning (floors, laundry, dusting, etc.) in homes that I’m watching for 3+ days, but for a negotiated rate. If you have pets, I will not clean with anything that is not pet friendly!! I will keep you updated with pictures of your pets, and contact you immediately if any issues arise. I will problem solve as much as possible, but not without you knowing. This should go without saying, but I will never bring any other person to your home!

“What a great sitter! Our boy is quite the Senior and Stephanie was a perfect match. She was very attentive to instructions and routines. Buddy is usually low maintenance, but a week before our scheduled departure, vertigo hit him, so he had several meds, multiple times a day, and had become extremely clingy to me. Stephanie never baulked; she took his condition and all that came with it in stride and they both did great. She's even checked on Buddy since she left! House was immaculate when we returned too. Definitely a repeat client here should we need to leave our boy again!”

“Morgan did a great job taking care of our beagle child Lucky. We planned a trip with short notice and couldn’t be happier that we found Morgan and she was available to provide in home care for Lucky. It was our first time using her but won’t be the last. We found her to be very attentive, accommodating to any special requests, responsible and reliable. The regular updates she provided us made us feel less guilty about leaving her behind. We highly recommend Morgan and Lucky does too! 🐶”

About: I’ve had animals growing up ever since I was little. I’ve grown up with 4 dogs in the household and currently have my own. I absolutely adore all animals and would love to take care of your beloved animal I work and go to school daily but during the summer, I can definitely be more free. I always take breaks to walk the dogs around the neighborhood. I always be adequate to feed them and give them water throughout the day at their assigned eating times! If the dog is crate, trained to sleep in the crate at night, they’re welcome to sleep in the crate or if the owner wants, they can sleep in the bed with me. I do not mind.

FAQs for House Sitting - Lugoff

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Lugoff on Rover is $28 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $31 per night. 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 October 2026, there are 544 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lugoff. 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 Lugoff 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 Lugoff 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.

<b>Tip:</b> 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 Lugoff 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.

  • 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.
