About: I have had experience with all types of animals my entire life i grew up taking care of my dog widget since i was 7 me and my dog would go to pet training class as well. As my dog had gotten older me and my family had changed our routine and home life to accommodate to my best buds last days so he would be comfortable. I also grew up pet sitting for my aunt and still do.I have owned cats and dogs as well as some smaller rodents. Pet care fits into my daily and weekly schedule because i currently don’t have work and i am studying to become a tattoo artist my day consists of drawing and studying tattooing. i love to drive around so far drives to pet sit will not bother me what so ever!! I make sure to give your pets a stress free environment and give them cuddles depending on your animals personality!! I always make sure your friends are fed on time and taken on adventures with me on a walk and take them out to potty.
About: I have been extremely passionate about animals since I was young. I have volunteered at the local humane society and worked at a doggy daycare/boarding facility for 2 years. I have experience caring for both cats and dogs as well small animals. I was successful in fostering and rehoming an amazing dog - which I hope to do more of in the future! Right now, I am currently working as a full time veterinary technician, so I can assure your pet will be safe with me! I will treat yours like my very own 🐕🦺🐾🖤 I work full time as a vet tech at a veterinary hospital in either the morning or evening! I can be very flexible with my schedule and have no problem stopping by before and after work. if your pet has to stay at my home, I have a fenced in back yard and two very playful pups that would love to meet new friends! When going to clients homes, I am great at following feeding instructions, walking & playing with your pup!
“Emily took wonderful care of our fur babies and sent frequent updates and photos which kept our minds at ease. This was the first time we have booked Emily and will most definitely book her for future vacations.”
About: I have watched family members’ animals and my parents’ dogs while they are gone on vacation. Always made sure they have the love while their people are away! I currently work until 2pm and can easily come to your home and walk your animal or feed if needed. I can also offer weekends! I can easily crate your animal if needed. I can feed, give water, clean litter boxes, or walk your dog if you are unable to or just have a busy schedule!
“As always, Miss Lonnie gives so much love to the dogs and goes an extra mile to reassure us when we're gone. They miss her when we return home...Thank you!”
About: I’ve been pet/home sitting for 7 years with different families all over Maryland. My goal is to give clients ease and know their pets/home is in good hands! 😊 Since I work in the evenings, my mornings and afternoons are free to walk, play, or just keep your fur baby company while you’re away. And with house sitting, I’ll make sure your plants watered, etc. What started out as something I did to help our family and friends has grown to something I thoroughly love to do! While I do not have any pets of my own, I know there is great l responsibility when taking care of animals . My promise is to keep your pets in the safe environments you’ve provided/created for them.
“Alexander took great care of our dog and home while we were away! We got plenty of updates and came home to a clean house which was greatly appreciated. We highly recommend him and will definitely be booking again in the future.”
“Matthew is a wonderful pet sitter. He is friendly, easy-going, respectful and considerate of your pets’ needs and any worries. Matthew did everything we asked to take the best care of our cat. We will definitely use him again!”
“Lonnie handled my high energy big dogs wonderfully. He clearly cared about their health and well being, which means a lot to my husband and me when we put our babies in someone else's care. Thanks Lonnie, we'll see you next time!”
About: With over 25 years of experience raising my own dogs and providing trusted house-and-pet sitting for friends and family, I offer a lifetime of dedicated care. I am a passionate advocate for the human-animal bond; my own dog is a certified therapy dog, and together we volunteer at hospitals, nursing homes, hospice facilities, and schools. I treat every dog I watch with the same compassion and attention I give my own. Because I work during the day, I am primarily available for evening and weekend care, making me an ideal fit for owners who need a reliable presence while they are away or working late. Your pets will receive expert care in a loving, safe environment. Because I work during the day, I am primarily available for evening and weekend care, making me an ideal fit for owners who need a reliable presence while they are away or working late. I will treat your pets and your home with respect and care. Your animals and your home are safe with me! I am considerate and very responsible.
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and currently have two pugs of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you truly trust with your pets. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to each dog’s personality and routine. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding schedules, medications, senior dogs, and giving pets extra attention and affection while their owners are away. I also work in hospice care, so being compassionate, calm, and reliable comes naturally to me. I’ll treat your pets like family and make sure you feel updated and reassured while you’re gone. I work full time during the week from 9am–6:30pm, but pet care fits naturally into my routine since I already care for my two pugs daily. I’m available for evening visits/walks on weekdays and have much more flexibility on weekends for drop-ins, walks, and overnight care. I’m reliable, communicative, and committed to making sure pets feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while their owners are away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I pay close attention during walks and outdoor time, especially in hot weather, and I never leave dogs outside longer than they should be. I make sure pets always have fresh water, a clean environment, and close supervision to keep them safe from anything that could bother or harm them. I’m also very mindful about keeping floors and spaces clear of anything pets could get into or accidentally swallow. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your animals, and I’ll always treat your pets with the same care and attention I’d want for my own
About: I have loved animals my whole life. There has never been a time I can remember without a pet in the picture. Raised with dogs and cats, and now a corgi mom of two, I have 17 years of pet care experience. I'm comfortable giving pills and following medication schedules, and I'm experienced with bathing, nail trimming, and ear cleaning. As a dog mom, I understand how important it is that our fur babies are cared for and never feel left behind, and that's why I promise to love and care for yours like my own. I'm working from home so I have more time for my dogs, and to step in for yours when your travel plans don't allow pets to come along. Your fur baby won't be left alone for long stretches. I am currently working from home, so I have plenty of time-flexibility to spend time with and play with your pets! I am able to do check-ins in your home every 2-4 hours on week days and spend larger chunks of time with them (or even overnight) on weekends. If overnight is needed on weekdays, I can work that in with notice. I don't board pets in my home. Instead, I offer house and pet sitting so your pet stays comfortable in a familiar space and on their normal routine. Before any booking, I like to schedule a meet and greet so you can meet me, and so your pet and I can become familiar with one another. It also gives me a chance to learn their routine. I'll follow your instructions for feeding, medication schedules, and exercise, and I'll send photo and text updates during every visit. Friends and family have trusted me with their pets and homes for years, and I'm confident I can give you the peace of mind you need when traveling without your fur baby.
“Maria is the best! She was so kind, accommodating to our specific needs, communicated very well, and loved my kitten as if he were her own. We are incredibly thankful to have found her and look forward to working with her again in the future.”
“Bronte was WONDERFUL. We had a bit of a situation with a raccoon and our dog while outside in our fenced yard. Raccoon was looking to have our dog as a meal but Bronte was able to get the dog inside safely and alerted us immediately. Bronte was very patient and loving with our dog, will definitely call upon her again.”
“Tracie was able to help us at the last minute as we had to go out of town for a funeral. She was very pleasant and provided feedback and photos throughout the trip. We returned to two happy dogs and a lovely boiquet of flowers to bright our day after a solemn couple of days away. Very sweet!”
“Louis was so awesome! I’ve never left my pets alone with anyone outside of my family before, but I felt safe and secure with Louis in charge! Both of my dogs loved him and he took such good care of them. He even sent me some pictures. I will definitely ask Louis to pet sit again.”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life. My childhood cat lived to 22, and I grew up with Golden Retrievers, including helping care for a litter of puppies. I also worked as an assistant manager at a large pet daycare facility and now have two rescue dogs of my own. I’m very active and love walking, so I’m happy to give dogs plenty of exercise, playtime, and attention based on their needs. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I work part-time in a flexible office role and can also work remotely, while I am building my real-estate career. That gives me the ability to plan my schedule around walks, drop-ins, feedings, playtime, and staying consistent with each pet’s routine. In my home, pets are treated like family. I have a fenced yard, a large back porch, a walkable neighborhood, and a park nearby for walks and playtime. My two rescue dogs are used to sharing the furniture, so visiting pets will have plenty of comfortable places to relax and feel at home. In a client’s home, I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding, walks, playtime, medication instructions, and any house rules—while keeping you updated with photos and messages. As a former college coach and admissions counselor, I have spent most of my career in trusted, responsibility-heavy roles, and I bring that same attentiveness and care to every pet.
About: Hi there! I’ve had cats throughout childhood and through most of my adult life, so caring for animals has always been something I've loved. I’ve also helped out friends and neighbors by pet sitting for their cats and dogs. I've given medication and supplements to my own cats. I’m active and love being outdoors — walking, running, or hiking with a dog sounds like the perfect day to me! Several years ago, I actually had a Rover sitter care for my cat Baby when she was sick. She was very reliable — she kept me updated, showed so much compassion, and gave me total peace of mind. That experience really stuck with me and I aspire to be that same trusted, reliable sitter for others. My own fur babies have since crossed the rainbow bridge, so I don’t currently have pets at home — which means my schedule is flexible and I can give your fur babies my full attention. I’d love to meet your furry family members and make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. ❤️ I ran my own business for 10 years and am taking some time off right now, so my schedule is flexible. I focus on overnight pet sitting, which means I can stay with your fur babies to keep them company, follow their normal routine, and make sure they feel safe and cared for while you’re away. Keeping your fur babies safe is my top priority. I like to have a list of care instructions so I know exactly what they need, and I always ask for your vet’s contact info just in case. I’ll keep you updated and reach out right away if anything comes up. Since I do overnight stays in your home, I make sure to keep things comfortable and familiar for your fur babies so they feel safe and relaxed while you’re away. Overnight Care Guidelines To ensure a comfortable and successful stay for everyone: • Companion animals sleep in their own beds (I don’t share my bed). • Indoor cameras are turned off during my stay. • Homes are reasonably clean & tidy, and free of strong odors. • Clean linens are provided for my use. • A meet-and-greet is required prior to confirming a booking.

The average cost of House Sitting in Mount Pleasant is $39 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $34 and $42 per night.

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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Mount Pleasant. On Rover:
- 90% 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.
