“I cannot recommend Lydia enough for all of your petsitting needs - she watched our pups AND backyard ducks when we went out of town for the weekend. My husband and I came home from our trip to two content and relaxed boys (our dogs) and four happy and peppy girls (our ducks). Lydia went above and beyond by taking out the trash, washing the towels, and changing the sheets before she left…we’ll most definitely use her again!”
“Melanie sent us updates and photos throughout the day. She took very good care of our puppy. She played with him in the yard and took him for walks. She also took great care of our home. We are very pleased with her service and will be using Melanie in the future.”
“Zoey is very kind and considerate of me the pet owner as well as my pup. She communicated with me during her stay just to put my mind at ease. She sent pictures so I knew my pup was well taken care of. She is responsive and reliable.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was young, volunteered at animal shelters, and have had two dogs of my own! I’ve also taken care of squirrels and possums before so I am pretty confident in animal care! I have a hybrid/mostly remote job and no pets of my own so I have a flexible schedule! I often have meetings during the day but plenty of time in between them! I also travel around the Charleston area for meetings! I am very caring towards animals and will give your pets lots of love! I miss my pets back home so I would really enjoy getting to spend some time with yours as if they were my own!
“Our dog and cat loved Sara. She was very communicative with us and sent lots of pictures. She was very responsible and asked questions if she had any concerns. She also left the house clean and neat. Would definitely recommend her.”
“Raquel is amazing! She stayed with our doggos for the weekend, kept us up to date on any shenanigans going on at home and lots of photos. Thanks for making it easy for us to relax while away!! Well definitely use Raquel again!”
“Reagan was great! She sent plenty of photos and proivided updates on how everyone was doing. Very respectful of the house. When we got back, the animals were happy to see us, but did not act like they had been ignored, which is the best compliment I can give.”
“First time using Kelsey, and she accommodated a last-min request when all my regulars were unavailable. My two dogs were so well taken care of, and home was just as we left it. Got lots of updates and pics throughout the long weekend, which I appreciate. I didn’t have to worry about anything at all. They were also really calm (no anxiety) and happy when we got home. They can be challenging for me on long walks, pulling and barking at other dogs and people, but she seemed to handle them really well. Would def recommend her services.”
“Savannah is a real sweetheart! She was on time and ready to jump right in when I had to travel. She gave me assurance and took excellent care of my fur babies. I would definitely recommend Savannah 110%. Love, CarlaJean”
“Maura house and dog sat for us for 8 days. Maura was friendly and very experienced with dog sitting, which made us feel comfortable leaving our dog with someone from Rover for the first time! Our dog is usually shy around new folks but was immediately comfortable around Maura. We loved that she sent us updates and pictures while we were away. We will definitely book Maura again in the future!”
About: I have been around animals of all kinds since a young age and love interacting with pets. Many of my friends and family members have relied on me to stay overnight, drop in during the day, and play with their dogs and cats to ensure they are enriched with play time and are well taken care of. I love fur babies of all sizes and breeds! I grew up with 2 large Rottweilers Bear Puppy and Katie. 3 Shih Tzu’s Molly, Alley and Cash and 1 miniature schnauzer Nicholas. I’m currently working part time in Downtown Charleston. Mondays and Wednesday I have more flexibility before 1:00 pm because I work remotely. Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday I am available for any lunchtime walks, play dates, and all the fur baby love! While I wish I could bring your pets to my home, I do not have the proper safety precautions for doggies and my kitties are timid of visiting pets, so I want to respect their home. When it comes to going into the pets homes I will ensure that all dogs remain on their leash while on walks away from the home and in the yards of their homes unless there is proper fencing to keep them safe. And same goes for inside/ outside kitties. I want all pets I interact with to feel safe in their environment and comfortable with me caring and interacting with them!
“Megan did a great job house sitting my two vizslas and two cats while we were gone a week. She took them for long walks and works from home so kept them company all day. I will be using her services again!”
“Jessica was amazing!! We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! One of our pups had a medical issue throughout her stay and Jessica was so incredibly kind and patient with her. She was very thorough with her check ins and responses. She sent videos and pics every day with how overnights went and the mornings and evenings. I felt very confident with her ability to take care of all of our pups. She was also very diligent about picking up poop which is something we didn’t even ask her to do. If she will have us, we will definitely be using her again!! 💕💕💕”
“Emma was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of both of my dogs while Lorena and I were away for a few days, and we couldn’t have felt more at ease. She was attentive, responsible, and clearly loves what she does. We got regular updates, and it was so reassuring to see how happy and comfortable our dogs were with her. I would 100% recommend Emma to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
About: Hello! We loved and cared for our Brittany for 14 years. I live in an apartment and it pains me to see dogs cooped up all day! I am currently a real estate photographer. My favorite part of my job is getting to meet everyone's beloved pets. I travel regularly and have good control over my own schedule. I am very familiar with most neighborhoods. Safety and caution is my number one priority. I love being active and taking walks, visiting a park, or even just sitting on a porch to keep company for a bit.

“Kristelyn had a large challenge as our dog has a medical issue that causes her to need to go out almost every hour. Kristelyn met the challenge and had a great week d with Piper. The house was neat and clean when we returned and Piper was happy. No one should need more than that! Thanks, Kristelyn!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Mount Pleasant
Naomi was very communicative and great with my two older dogs. She watched them over Fourth of July weekend, and was very caring for them both during the insane amount of fireworks that were going off. She updated me daily and sent pics, will totally rehire her to stay at my home with my babies again!
I can’t sing Jess’s praises loud enough. Jess has cared for our senior Newfoundland Remy twice and truly gone above and beyond to make sure our baby girl feels loved and cared for. Remy has a slew of special needs that can make finding sitters challenging. From the first time Jess met Remy, her warm and kind spirit melted us all. Jess takes the time to be thorough and thoughtful, and her education and expertise also make her an incredible resource with tons of valuable insights, especially for senior pets like our Remy. We can always expect regular photos with detailed “Pupdates” when Remy’s in Jess’s capable care. Jess is punctual, responsive, and trustworthy…a true gift. We’re so grateful to have found Jess and couldn’t recommend her more to care for your precious pet like they’re her own!
Rachel was amazing with my dog and bird! She kept me up to date on how they were doing and sent me photos throughout the week I was away. She was prompt in her responses from the very beginning. I will definitely be booking her to care for my babies in the future!
Jennifer was great! Provided just the right amount of updates about my dog while we were out of town. I knew he was being well cared for and didn't worry at all while we were out of town. She was an even wiling to help out when our flight was delayed getting back. I would highly recommend her!
Lauren was a fantastic dog sitter. She took great care of our three dogs, arrived on time, and kept us updated with photos and messages throughout her stay. She was communicative, dependable, and respectful of our home. We felt completely at ease knowing our dogs were in her care and would gladly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter.
Jessica is the best dog sitter we have ever had! Mature, caring, friendly, and a great communicator. We were very appreciative of Jessica for staying in our home with our two dogs. She provided frequent updates and communicated any concerns (i.e., our boy was licking himself incessantly, checking if another dog could come over and play). We could tell the dogs not only felt comfortable, but had a great time and were cared for by Jessica. The house was in perfect shape when we returned, as were our pups 😊
We had Kelly to provide care for our two Poodles (Murphy and Sophie and she was fabulous. She played with them in the backyard, fed and gave them their medications and let them sleep with her. Kelsey followed our instructions to a T. Upon return I noticed the house was tidy, their feeding bowl were washed and best of all the dogs seemed relaxed and well cared for. We will definitely have Kelly back and I know the dogs would like to see her again,
Lucia was the absolute best! We were so happy to know Lucky was happy and well taken care of while we were away! I will definitely schedule with her again and highly recommend her! She made a point to visit before our trip to get to know Lucky and kept us updated with pictures and messages daily!
Wow - Tammie was amazing and highly recommend. Very responsive and helpful. She cared for our older cat and dog - we know they got a lot of love and attention because while they were happy to see us, they did not complain or cling all night, which can happen. Our dog had an upset tummy but Tammie was great and took care and of our girl. And, we were delayed coming home so Tammie made sure our dog had a mid-day walk. Can’t say enough nice things - she even did laundry to wash towels and sheets. She went way above and beyond.

FAQs for House Sitting - Mount Pleasant
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Mount Pleasant on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,647 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Mount Pleasant. 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 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.

- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 98% 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.
