“Cory and his family are very attentive when caring for our pup. After finding him on Rover, it’s now easy to go away for an overnight or weeklong trip. We never have to worry if our pup is lonely or having a great time. Cory always sends photo updates on how things are going. Looking forward to booking Cory’s services again.”

“Our dog had a great stay with Celia! This was our first Rover.com experience and we were more than pleased. We were very impressed with the step by step introductions to the other dogs and the concern for pet safety in general. There was a nice fenced in yard and Celia followed any instructions that we may have had. We also enjoyed the many updates and pics. We would definitely recommend Celia to any of our dog friends!”

“Thanks to Gina my rambunctious 10 month old puppy was safe & happy while I visited with lifelong friends & attended the funeral of another lifelong friend. Gina sent pictures & assurances of my puppy’s wellbeing & that he was “no trouble”, a welcome fib. I didn’t know such a service existed but am very glad Rover led me to Gina.”

“Lindsey and Aaron are our go to dog sitters! They’re always so happy to watch our dog and she loves going to their house! We get lots of updates while we’re gone and I know she is well-loved and taken care of. She gets along great with their sweet dogs and always returns happy once we can finally convince her to come back home with us. I highly recommend you book Lindsay and Aaron the next time you need a dog sitter!”

“Debbie did such a good job with my new puppy! She sent daily updates and answered any questions I had! When we first went to meet her with my dog, Lucas, she wanted to make sure he wasn’t compatible with her own pets and had an extensive questionnaire to make sure he would fit in with other pets. I was relieved to know that she doesn’t take aggressive dogs or dogs that aren’t up to date on all their shots. I’ve already booked her again and would recommend her to anyone!!”

About: I have experience working in animal rescue, fostering, basic training, and complex medical maintenance for both dogs and cats. I have fostered over 100 dogs in ten years and owned two heart dogs and three beloved cats, all who had complicated medical conditions that required daily management. Pets are family to me and deserve the best care and consideration. I am currently on sabbatical and looking to fill my days with happy time with pets though walks, play, and just quality time. I’m available every day 11 am to 6 pm. Two days notice is required for both dog walking or dog check-in requests. I have a fenced in back yard and crates, along with dog safe toys, doggy gates, and non slip mats throughout the house for better traction for older dogs.

About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life, I’ve grown up with just about every type of animal from small to large, I’ve worked at dog rehabilitation centers, I’ve been a dog groomer for over 12 years (still grooming out of my home) I’ve worked as a vet tech in multiple veterinary clinics as well. I’m a professional groomer that works from home, my kiddos are 12, 8 and 2 with my oldest two in school during the day, so my daily routine is usually about the same lol I groom just about every day, and also occasionally board for my long term grooming clients as well! With me working from home I would absolutely prefer your pet to be dropped off and picked up, your pet will have the opportunity to play/hang out with my personal dog, go outside plenty of times and also have that human interaction as well rather then being in a kennel/run for hours on end before getting let out to go potty.

I have an older dog (8 yrs) who is the absolute best with other puppies!

About: I’m a caring and responsible pet owner, and I share my home with my husband, our three kids, and our 11-year-old Golden Retriever, Karma. She’s truly part of our family, and caring for her over the years has made me even more patient, attentive, and nurturing—qualities I bring into how I care for every dog. I’ve always had dogs growing up, and they’ve never been “just pets” to me—they’re family. I treat every dog with that same level of love, respect, and attention, and I would care for your dog just as I do my own. In addition to my personal experience, I’ve helped neighbors by watching their dogs during vacations and stopping in for visits when they have long workdays. I’m comfortable with daily routines, feeding schedules, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and cared for while you’re away. I love walking dogs regularly and believe it’s important for both their physical and mental well-being. Whether your dog enjoys long walks or prefers time in a fenced yard, I’m happy to follow their usual routine to keep them comfortable and happy. I’m currently a certified teacher between positions, which gives me extra flexibility and time to dedicate to your furry family members—something I truly enjoy. I look forward to meeting you and your pets soon! I’m a certified teacher between positions, which gives me extra flexibility and I'm currently available full-time to dedicate to your furry family members. I have a fenced-in yard at my home where dogs can safely play and relax, and I also enjoy taking walks around my neighborhood for extra exercise and enrichment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m happy to follow their usual routine—whether that means going for walks or letting them out in a fenced yard. My goal is to keep your pet comfortable, happy, and cared for in the way they’re used to.

About: As a high school teacher, I’m dependable, patient, and calm under pressure. I’ve personally owned three dogs over the past 25 years, so I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I do not currently have pets in my home, which allows me to give focused attention and care to the dogs I work with. I also love being outdoors and enjoy walks, routines, updates, and helping pets feel comfortable and cared for. As a teacher, I’m very organized and consistent with routines. During the summer, I have a flexible schedule with plenty of availability throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and quality time with pets. During the school year, I’m available in the afternoons, evenings, weekends, holidays, and school breaks. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I enjoy being active, outdoors, and dependable for both pets and their owners. I care for pets with patience, consistency, and lots of attention. With my own dogs over the years, I loved taking them on walks, riverwalks, lake outings, and other safe outdoor adventures. I enjoy keeping dogs active, comfortable, and cared for while also respecting each owner’s routines and instructions.

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.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.

Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Murray home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:

  • Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
  • Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
  • Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Murray.

Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

You and your Murray sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.

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.

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.

Many sitters in SC ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
