“Veronica was absolutely wonderful!!! We feel so lucky to have found her, especially on such short notice! Veronica was great with all three of our girls. We just moved here from out of state and they are all a little on edge, but they absolutely loved her! We truly feel like we won the lottery with her! We will definitely be booking her again!”
“Lauren was great with our cat and dog. She took great care of them, sent us frequent pictures and updates while we were gone, and made sure they were loved and given tons of attention. She was responsible and communicative and left our home spotless.”
“Veronica is our dogs new best friend! Veronica was our puppies 1st sitter and she exceeded our expectations (which are high)! I don’t have children, so you understand. We’ll use Veronica again!”
About: I’ve had dogs, cats, and other pets my entire life. I have pet sit and dog walked for 5 years. I am a very patient and friendly pet owner. I work remotely so my availability is pretty wide open, I like to workout in mornings around 8-10 ish but other than that my day is good. I have a very large unfenced yard so if that is an issue let me know. When pet sitting in clients homes I am respectful, attentive, and kind making sure my client is getting exactly what they need out of my services!
About: I know pets aren’t one size fits all - whether your pet has a complicated routine or a simple one, is friends with everyone or needs time to warm up, I care for each animal as an individual to best meet their needs. I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life, with the occasional chicken, pig, rabbit, horse, or cow added to the mix! For the last 6 years I have been the go-to sitter for my friends and acquaintances. I have sitting experience with dogs and cats of all ages, including seniors with medication, reactive dogs, and high energy working breeds. When your pet is in my care, their safety and comfort is my top priority! I offer drop in visits and walks 7 days a week! I work from home full time M-F but my day wraps up at 3pm, giving me open afternoons and evenings to see your pet! While my weekday mornings are more limited I’m happy to discuss options. I am currently able to offer overnight stays at your home every other weekend. Please send me a message to confirm availability! I care for your pets as if they were my own - their safety and comfort is the most important thing. For this reason, I will limit your pets interactions with any animals outside of the home on walks unless otherwise specified by you.
About: I've had pets my whole life. This past summer, my 13 year old husky passed away. I had her since she was four months old. I miss her dearly and we spent time going for 3 walks a day or going on a trail or by the river/lake. I'm very understanding that all pets are different, and can appreciate the maintenance that it takes to take short term and long term care for a larger, furrier animal such as a husky. This summer, I borrowed a friend's dog for an outdoor adventure. It's fun to connect with different animals in different ways. I watch my sister's cats from time to time when she goes away. For two years, I worked for a private pet care/house sitting business 2015-2017. During that time I helped take care of dogs, cats, and a bird. A new skill I learned was injecting insulin for a cat as well as administering medication with food. Two different cats received shots (on multiple visits) while in my care. I am currently working part time, so I have more availability during this time in order to help out as needed per sitting request. I'd like to add value to my week by helping you and me out all at once. :) Caring for pets in others homes is what I can offer, and I will do this with care. I trust that the pet's owner will provide info for any additional needs that their pet may have. I look forward to working with each client to provide excellent service for their furry friend(s).
About: I know the regions dog friendly areas and have an arsenal of doggie toys to keep everyone entertained. On a doggy play date I'm not afraid of getting sandy, muddy and and wet. While I'll do my best to give them as much exercise as I can, I will guarantee your pup(s) will return in exactly the same condition (if not cleaner) than they came to me. I will always make sure you are comfortable with everything I plan on doing with your doggie(s) and I have never had an emergency I could not solve. I've handled all kinds of dogs in all kinds of situations; on two separate occasions an energetic Lab puppy and a trio of a Retriever, Maltese and Labradoodle who were parts of a wedding ceremonies, a week with a blind rescue Chihuahua and his massive German Shepard brothers, multiple weeks with two Shih Tzus and their goats, llama and chicken brothers and sisters, all while entertaining my own pair of high-maintenance Border Collies.
About: I have had over 20yrs experience pet/house sitting and have impeccable references. If you are looking for a responsible person to shower your 4~legged companions with oodles of TLC, look no further. I am available to care for your pet(s) at your home or mine. I live on a 50 acre property with lots of room to romp and exercise on or off leash. I also live across from a 2000+ acre recreation park/sanctuary with mikes of hiking trails for additional exercise and adventures. I am a semi-retired RN so your pet(s) would not be left alone for any length of time. I look forward to basking in their company and doting on them 24/7. Please contact me for any questions. Thank you for your consideration. ~Claudia I am a retired RN so your dog(s) would have me to keep them company all day along with our own 2 dogs (4 yr old Basset Hound and 8yr old English Springer Spaniel) who both neutered very dog friendly males. We have a lovely fully fenced 8+ acres property and comfy home for your dog(s) to have the run of along with our 2 dogs. We are both home all day and there is always someone here at all times. No dog is left home alone. We also have a caretaker who tends to the the 2 horses and mini donkey (whom live in separate pastures from the main property, as well as / goats that live in a back pasture. We have a fully fenced 8 acre property with a four ft fence. Dogs are free to have access to entire property as well as free range indoors. We have a very comfortable home with a large wrap around deck and 5 exits. So it’s in/out all day as much as any dog wants/needs. It’s truly doggie heaven here and most people want to stay themselves when they drop off their dogs. We don’t care for more than 2 at a time.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Mount Pleasant
I can confidently recommend Alyssa to watch your pet. She was on time for the meet & greet. Kept in touch with me during the stay, sending pics and updates as appropriate. She took out the trash and collected the mail as I had requested. She left the house clean and put her sheets in the washing machine. My dog Maya enjoyed the walks and the company. Thanks Alyssa!
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!

The average cost of House Sitting in Mount Pleasant is $64 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $54 and $83 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.
