“Sage was wonderful with our pets. We booked her to house sit and stay with our two dogs and two cats. She was very responsive while we were away and kept us up to date on our pets and how they were doing. We definitely recommend her and will use her again.”
“Louise is amazing! She is the first sitter we used after adopting our very energetic puppy, and she did such an incredible job keeping her happy and safe while making sure our other dog and cat were as well. We’d absolutely trust her to watch our babies again.”
“Lydia took wonderful care of my two dogs while staying with them over the weekend. From the moment we met her, it was clear that she genuinely loves animals. She followed their schedules and routines perfectly, spent plenty of time playing with them, and made sure they felt comfortable, happy, and loved while I was away. Knowing my dogs were in such caring and capable hands gave me complete peace of mind. When I returned home, they were relaxed, well cared for, and clearly enjoyed their time with her. I am so grateful for the pictures and videos she sent and the attention and affection she gave them. I would wholeheartedly recommend Lydia to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and compassionate dog sitter.”

“Matthew took great care of our 3 pups while we were away. They warmed to him quickly. He has a gift with animals. We wouldn’t hesitate to ask him to sit with our dogs in the future. We highly recommend Matthew”
About: Lover of all things living I care for animals big and small. Having 10+ years experience with dog training, dog shows, and growing up in the 4H club I’ve got a few tricks up my sleeve when it comes to animals. I’ve had goats, a pony, dogs, cats, frogs, snakes (currently one snake, a ball python. I grew up fostering dogs and in the rescue community, I treat any baby like my own. I currently work weekend mornings only so I have all week and evenings to care for and play with your pets! Most of my mornings are spent outside with my dogs anyways! I can do feedings, water changes, taking your dog out on a walk or just out to the yard. If your dog needs someone strong to play with I love tug of war with big dogs. If your pet needs someone quiet and calm I can bring a soothing presence. Exotic animals I monitor heat lamps, food, activity, change water and clean bedding
“Maylin was absolutely wonderful to work with and was great with my dog Honey. She was communicative, sent photos, and left the house in great shape. I will definitely work with Maylin again!”
“We’re big fans of Lori and her pup Teddy! We like to keep our pups home in their comfort zone when we’re not able to travel with them and they did great with her overnight. We will be using Lori again in the future and would recommend her in a heartbeat to folks in the area who need their animals well cared for while they’re away.”
“I highly recommend her as a pet sitter! She was caring, patient, and attentive with my dogs. She followed all of my instructions very carefully, which is something that can be hard to find when trusting someone with your pets. I really appreciated how responsible and attentive she was, and it gave me peace of mind knowing my dogs were safe and well cared for while I was away. I would definitely book with her again!”

About: I have begged for and cared for animals ever since I was a child. Always the sensitive soul, I tend to be more comfortable with animals and they seem to be quickly comfortable with me. The bigger the better so it seems! As a yoga instructor and former runner, I crave moving around outside. During the week I have plenty of time to get your buds out for potty breaks & attention, the morning being the extended time for play. While Monday & Tuesday are completely full, Friday through Sunday are completely open. Weekends are when if you need me to house sit, that is an option. Obviously, this is guided by any instructions you give. You know your pet and any little eccentricities they may have. I also go by how they are acting after you have been away for a few hours and their experience with absent family members. In bad weather, I'm great with animals that frighten easily. Even if they do not wish to be touched, I calm my tone and talk more so they know they're not alone. Eye contact if that's something they are comfortable with. Ugh, I sound wacky, but it really is vibe check. Be aware, I have a fragrance allergy which would need to be addressed before overnight care.
“Cassandra was so wonderful to my big dogs Hollis & Penny while I was out of town. She sent so many updates & pictures as well as asked many questions to make sure she could give them the best care possible. I highly recommend her!”
“Alicia was amazing with both of our dogs. They can be a bit intimidating when you first meet them but she did very well introducing herself to them. They had a great time with her. She sent lots of pictures and videos of the dogs. I would highly recommend Alicia to anyone that needs a sitter.”
“Makayla did great and the puppies were very happy and content when I got back! She even helped water my plants during the hot weeks of summer which was very helpful!”

The average cost of House Sitting in Mount Pleasant is $23 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $23 and $23 per night. 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.

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 Mount Pleasant 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 Mount Pleasant 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 Mount Pleasant 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 Rover Guarantee, 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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 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.

- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
