“Leah stepped in last minute to watch our dog for the weekend. She was great about touching base and providing updates on our pup while we were away. We’d recommend her highly to anyone looking for pet care. Thanks Leah!”
“Izzy is a great pet & housesitter! She is kind and caring and I was so glad to be able to leave my cats for a few days in the hands of someone very trustworthy. Would absolutely not hesitate to book again (and I will be)!”
“Jennifer was wonderful. She took such good care of our Georgia girl while we explored the Olympic national park with our family. Thank you so much for helping make our vacation so special knowing Georgie was in great care..”
About: I'm a Port Angeles local and proud dog owner. My dog, Cashew, is a big part of my life, so I understand how important it is to know your pet is in good hands when you're away. My approach to animal care is to work with each pet's individual personality, comfort level, and established routine. Some dogs want plenty of playtime, walks, and attention. Others are happiest relaxing with someone nearby. I believe good care means understanding the difference. I'm patient, observant, and detail oriented. I pay attention to behavior, body language, and the little things that help animals feel comfortable and secure. I treat every pet as an individual, follow your instructions carefully, and provide regular photos and updates. My goal is simple: happy pets, respected homes, and owners who can enjoy their time away without worrying. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate pet care throughout the week, including weekdays, weekends, and overnight stays. I'm available for regular care as well as extended daytime companionship when needed. For pets that require nearly constant supervision, I'm happy to discuss special arrangements and pricing. I plan my schedule carefully around my own dog's needs and only accept bookings I can reliably fulfill. I'm also happy to coordinate around your pet's established feeding, walking, and sleeping routines. I provide care in your pet's own home, where they're already comfortable with their surroundings, familiar smells, and daily routines. Before a booking, I like to learn about your pet's personality, feeding schedule, exercise needs, boundaries, and anything that might make them anxious or uncomfortable. I take safety seriously, including securing doors and gates, using appropriate leashes, maintaining fresh water, and following your household instructions. I never force interactions with nervous or shy animals. I give them time and space to become comfortable with me. You'll receive photos and updates so you know how things are going. I also treat your home with respect and make sure everything is clean and secure when I leave.
“Mariah took incredibly good care of my very senior dog while I was away. She clearly spent a lot of quality time with her and made an effort to give her a lot of time outside in the sun. She sent lots of very sweet pictures. My dog had an illness flare up during the stay and Mariah took quick action and let me know right away and administered medication. For much of my trip I didn't have service but luckily I trusted Mariah to take care of her dog as if she was her own.”
“I cannot say enough positive things about Jennifer! It was so wonderful to be able to have such piece of mind knowing our home and pets were in such good hands for our trip. I will 100% be booking with her again. I can’t thank her enough for all of her exceptional care!”
About: I grew up with a dog and have taken care of neighbor's dogs for years! I currently have an orange tabby cat named Gus who is the love of my life!! I absolutely love getting to meet different animals and learn their fun personality traits-they bring me so much joy! So excited to meet your furry friends! I work full time Monday-Friday from 8-4:00pm, so I am available on evenings Monday-Friday and available anytime on Saturdays and Sundays. I can walk your dog or stay with your animals while you are away. I want to respect and honor the way you care for your pets. You know them more than anyone, so I want to treat them will the love and care that you give them. Whether they are elderly and need a slower pace or young and have boundless energy, I want cater my care to each individual pet and their owners desires. And above all else, get to know your beloved family members!
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Mount Pleasant
Our house is difficult to get to and our pets are high energy and naughty. Izzy had no problems with either. Izzy was thoughtful and communicative, arrived on time with no issues and made sure the animals were good before she left. If you have an out of the way place with special animals hire her for peace of mind.
Nancy was wonderful! She spent two weeks at our home caring for our high-energy Australian Shepherd, Theo. It was their first time together, but she went above and beyond by scheduling two meet & greet visits before our trip so Theo could feel comfortable with her. Nancy kept up with his ball-motivated energy, kindly helped care for our fish, and left the house in impeccable condition. Her daily updates and photos were so appreciated and gave us real peace of mind. We highly recommend Nancy to anyone!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
<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 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 , 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
