“Kat is an absolute lifesaver. She responded quickly to my very last-minute request and didn’t hesitate to step in when I needed help.

I highly recommend Kat to anyone looking for someone reliable, responsive, and genuinely caring with their pets.”

About: Hi, I’m Kensington! I’ve been caring for animals my whole life—everything from cuddly pups and finicky cats to aquatics and scaly creatures (yes, really). I treat every pet like family, with patience, love, and attention to the little things that make them unique. Whether your dog needs a walk, your cat needs a lap to claim, or your shy pet just needs a calm presence, I’ve got them covered. My whole workweek typically revolves around pet care and ensuring other people’s furry friends are well taken care of. As for when I’m not working, I take care of all the sweet furry (and scale-y!) babies in my own home! I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and needs—whether that means sticking to a feeding schedule, giving space to shy pets, or providing plenty of play and snuggles. I keep your home clean and respect your space, just like I do with the animals I care for. I’m experienced, adaptable, and always ready to make your pet feel loved and secure while you’re away.
About: Hi! I have had a variety of dogs my whole life. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, bath their pets. There is nothing more that brings me joy then hanging out with any fur baby. I do photography on the side and I am always more than welcome to snap some pictures of your pups! I am currently in between (remote) jobs and have a lot of time on my hands. Looking for work to keep me busy! I am very flexible and willing to work with your schedules. I have a 5 year old pitbull chocolate lab mix who is very energetic and friendly! We go on hikes, trips to Starbuck, for a pup cup of course and play fetch. I am a very reliable and friendly person who will make sure that your fur baby is content and comfortable. I had found/rescued Grace (my current pup) on the side of the road when she was 5 weeks old in very poor condition. She was malnourished and had mange. After vet appointments after vet appointment she regained some weight and got rid of the mange and now she is the sweetest girl! I am so lucky!

“Winter took wonderful care of Rogue, my elderly dog. She was on time for every visit, followed my requests, and was patient and gentle with Rogue on her low energy days. She also sent sweet photos of their belly-rub time, which made my day. Kind, reliable, and trustworthy. I'd happily book her again!”

I have done this for years and babysitting. Cats works well within my schedule. I enjoy taking care of cats and have four years. I prefer to babysit your cat in your home as they feel more comfortable in their own surroundings. I tend to try to play with them. I clean the litter box every time I go in I have also made sure that their water bowls are clean every day.
“Once again, Alexis was amazing with our 4 cats. She went above and beyond, cleaning up a mess the kitties made and completely changing their litter box when there was an odor. She is the best and we will continue to use her for future trips when our kitties need to be looked after! Thanks Alexis!”

About: I've had and taken care of a dog since I was 7 years old. Dogs were always a part of our family life. In my family and friend group I am the go-to person for pet sitting and puppy walks. I recently participated with a trainer from Ultimate K9 training in Southern Maryland with my own pup Russel who passed with flying colors and both he and I learned many new skills and tricks. Working with dogs is one of the loves of my life. I typically work a 7-5 shift at my day job but do have some flexibility during the day that I can use for a pup break. Evenings I am consistently available after 5pm. Weekend work is not a problem and I am open to helping support your much needed getaway. Love is always the first ingredient but of course we respect puppy boundaries as set by the puppy parents or how comfortable the pup is until they feel comfortable. Meals are fed to pups at the same time to make sure they are not feeling favoritism. Belly rubs and play time are also important for bonding and trust. I will send images of pets daily if the pet parent would like. Just let me know.

If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Murrells Inlet 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!
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 .

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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking.
