About: Since having my first dog for a pet, in 1982 -- and cherishing borrowed time with five more canines each taking their turn as MVPs and forever memorialized in my family's hall of fame, through 2023 -- I have been convinced that dogs possess an unconditional dedication and friendship that almost no person on Earth can match. Dog walking has been a way of life, and an ultimate pastime, by my wife and me taking favorite routes and paths in an array of places. Clipping our dogs' nails, and brushing their teeth, also have been regular duties I embrace for them. Our pet family also includes a gray cockatiel who joined us in 2013, and three 5.5-gallon aquariums: one with three tetras, and two others each with a dwarf gourami, who each come to the front of the tank when we talk aloud to say hello. Another pastime of mine has entailed horseback riding, for the past 20 years, and since 2017, lessons in the saddle on draft horses -- where I do some of my best reflection. Retired from nearly a quarter-century as a writer and editor in the daily newspaper industry -- and having met and interviewed so many special people -- each of whom taught me something about the way of the world -- I have plenty of part-time availability to provide TLC daily. Every dog is more than a pet, but a family member, with his or her own special personality. Like people, no two are alike -- and meeting every dog -- an apple in someone's eye -- is an honor. Following every client's direction to a T is the only formula I follow. Each dog has different needs and timing, and I fully respect that. Having worked part time in security across a city convention center and in maintaining private, HOA community swimming pools, my radar never dims, either, on keeping an eagle eye on all premises.
“Diana was AMAZING. So thoughtful and caring and went above and beyond for our three senior pets who needed a little extra care due to their age related deficits. Will definitely book again!”
About: I’ve loved dogs and cats all of my life. I know how to take care of them and I love to play with them and keep them safe I’m flexible at this time. I currently have a job however. This is something I want to pursue in the future as a full time job I take care of all my pets needs including taking them out, feeding them, walking them, making sure they have water and other needs they may have.
About: Hi, I'm 28 years old and I’ve been a dog owner for over 18 years. I’ve looked after all kinds of animals and currently a father to two dogs and a cat. I have experience with all different breeds, personalities and sizes. Your dog (pets) will be carefully supervised and I will be available to contact almost 24/7. I'm very calm but have lots of drive so I can handle active dogs as well as multiple at once. I've cared for other peoples animals before and wanted to get back into it because I enjoyed it so much. I look forward to meeting new people and dogs alike. I tend to my dogs and cat making sure they’re included in my daily routine. From feeding to walks to play and everything in between they’re part of life. I like to make sure my pets/client pets are comfortable and safe. Building a strong bond/relationship is important and I always prefer to think in the pets best interest.
“Holly did a great job with our Rover drop-in. She was on time, followed all instructions carefully, and communicated clearly throughout the visit. We also appreciated the photos she sent!”
“Stacie was absolutely amazing!! She took such great care of our two cats while we were on vacation for a week. It was so nice not having to worry while on vacation because I knew they were in great hands. You can really tell Stacie loves all animals. I highly recommend her, and we will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
About: I will apply a discount for pets 3 to 5. I have been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up caring for a wide variety of pets including dogs, cats, and more. While I love all animals, most of my hands on experience is with dogs and cats, especially medium to extra large breeds. But I have experience with all types, and all are welcome in my home. I am very understand of their needs, routines, and energy levels. I also have experience with PMR style raw feeding and am happy to follow your dog’s specific feeding instructions closely. My home is set up with pets in mind. I have a decent sized yard for outdoor time, along with a doggy door for easy access to potty breaks. The doggy door can be closed if needed. My yard is fully fenced with a 4 foot fence and secure latching gates, so it is a good enclosure but we will go over the height when you get here. Inside the home, dogs are welcome on the couches right alongside the humans. They are also allowed on the beds as we have 3 bedrooms and they can choose where they want to stay at night so they are completely comfortable. I am comfortable administering oral medications and following care instructions for pets who need extra support, including seniors, although I do not offer injectable medications. But if that is necessary we will discuss that further. To ensure each pet gets plenty of attention and personalized care, I host a maximum of 2 to 3 dogs at a time from different homes depending on how well they get along, or 3 to 4 from the same home. If you dog does not get along with others please inform me that you need your dog to be the only one in my home during stay and I will plan accordingly. My goal is to provide a calm, loving, home away from home where your pet feels safe, comfortable, and truly cared for while you are away. I truly love dogs and use positive reinforcement to create a safe, comforting environment that helps ease the stress of being away from their humans. I currently work at home and do not need to leave very often. My work is mostly hands off so most of my attention can go to the dogs needs. I will also be able to walk them often if weather permits. My yard is great for running around and I will go out there and play with them a few times a day. I am bonded and insured beyond Rover's insurance alone with Pet Care Insurance. I will offer a loving greeting and give them what they need when their family is gone. I will be able to administer medicine if necessary. I will be able to stay for a while at their home but I prefer the to come to my home as it will be easier for me to make sure they are well cared for. I will feed on their schedule and make sure food bowls are clean and water is always available. I am able to feed raw and PMR raw diets as well as any other diet type.
About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 15 years and have pet sitting experience with dogs and cats of all ages. I also have 2 dogs and 3 cats of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust. I’ll treat your pets like family and make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and reliable care while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my schedule, allowing me to provide dependable visits and plenty of attention. I’m flexible and happy to work with your pet’s routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. I’ll treat your home with the same respect I treat my own. I’ll carefully follow your pet’s routine, feeding instructions, medications, and any special requests while making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable in their familiar environment.

She made our first time using this app a breeze and we are looking to book in the future as well! Overall Strongly recommend, 10/10!”
About: Hi, my name is Sarah! As a dog mom myself (I have a 17 year old Yorkie named Ruby), I know how special our pets are to our hearts and the importance of finding a great, caring sitter for those times when we must be away. In addition, I have ample pet-sitting/walking experience with both large and small breed dogs, cats, birds, guinea pigs, raccoons, and a variety of other animals. I’m responsible, kind, and genuinely love critters of all kinds! I’m also more than happy to provide references, if requested. Please message me if you have any questions! Pet care is incredibly important to me. Therefore, I prioritize and customize my routine based on pets’ needs to ensure that they are cared for to the highest standard. I am happy to care for pets in the client’s home or in my own, depending upon the client’s needs/preferences. I feed, walk, play, take out for potty breaks, and spend quality time with pets. I am also comfortable with giving medication to pets if needed.
About: I have been dog sitting since I was 15 years old for neighbors, friends, and family, and I have also grown up with four family dogs! I have experience with a wide variety of breeds, including big dogs, small dogs, puppies, and senior dogs. I’m also comfortable caring for multiple dogs at once! I’m currently looking for dog walking and drop-in visits, as well as dog-sitting opportunities on weekends. Your dog will get plenty of walks, playtime, cuddles, attention, and, of course, lots of updates while you’re away! I am a college student currently. I am available for dog walking/drop ins on Saturday and Sunday at any times if available, Monday and Friday after 2:30 pm, and Thursdays any time before 1:00!!! I am free on weekends for dog sitting when I’m in town! I’m happy to provide dog walking and drop-in visits! I love going on long walks, so I’m happy to walk your dog for as long as they need. I’m also happy to drop in to play, spend time outside, or simply keep your dog company and give them some extra love and attention! I’m also open to boarding dogs in my home! I live in a house with a fully fenced-in backyard, and I have a friendly Cocker Spaniel who loves having other dogs around. Your dog will get plenty of attention, playtime, and walks while staying with me!
“Jordyn has done a great job each time she's watched our two cats. Always on time and sends pics and updates on how they're doing. Our cats can be very selective in who they come up to, and they seem to love it when she stops by. I've booked her multiple times so far and will keep her on my list of trusted pet sitters!”
The median cost per visit for dog sitting in Mauldin is $20
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Mauldin
Very grateful to be a repeat customer of Julie. This time, I had a work day go longer than I anticipated. Midway through the day, I asked Julie if she could help. She was able to quickly add us into her schedule and drop in to care for the pets. Great, positive communication: I know my pets are adored and prioritized with Julie.
She was wonderful with all three of my dogs! She took the time to come by the day before to meet them, learn their routine, and make sure everyone was comfortable before the check-in. I really appreciated the extra effort and communication. Knowing she had already met them gave me peace of mind while I was away. Everything went smoothly, and I would definitely book with her again!
We had a wonderful experience with her! She took amazing care of Tina and kept us updated throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. Everything went perfectly, and Tina was happy and well cared for. We highly recommend her and will definitely choose her again in the future. Thank you so much!
Jessica has been wonderful with Bella and Bindi. She’s always on time and plays with them, takes them on a walk, gives them treats and makes sure their water and food bowls are full. At first I was worried because I’ve never left my girls alone with an in-home sitter, but I felt so comfortable with Jessica and knew she would take great care of my girls. I will definitely ask her to take care of them in the future.
Courtney was the absolute best! She was a life saver, saving the day when we needed a sitter in less than a days notice. She took excellent care of my sweet pup, and my cats seemed to love her as well! You can’t go wrong hiring Courtney, and she definitely has repeat customers in us! Highly recommend

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.
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 Mauldin 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!
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 .

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 .
