Jane was great with our three dogs. She kept us informed with all that was going on with our house and dogs while we were gone. We came back to a clean home and happy dogs. We were very relaxed on vacation knowing our dogs were under her care.

Chrissie did a wonderful job watching our pup and our home. Our dog loved Chrissie from their first meet and greet, and she seemed well loved when we got home from vacation. Chrissie sent pictures and updates daily, she left my house cleaner than she found it and she also went out of her way to buy a itch relief spray for my dog who developed a rash right before our trip. We were very happy with the care she provided, I would book Chrissie to watch my dog anytime!

I cannot recommend Ruth enough!! She took such wonderful care of Delta, and her previous expertise was evident. She was very attentive from the moment she came over for our meet and greet, an excellent communicator during her stay (and dog photographer), and was creative in getting Delta to take her medicine. It was such a pleasure to meet her, and our Delta loved having Ruthie take care of her!! I will definitely be booking Ruth again! 💜🐶

I highly recommend Alex and will absolutely be using her again in the future. Her communication is excellent, and she keeps you updated on your fur baby by sending pictures and videos, which truly helped me while being away from my Emma. I genuinely felt she cared for my pet as if she were her own, and I greatly appreciate that.

We were staying at Carolina Beach with our dogs, one of which has major separation anxiety especially when traveling. Lena quickly won both dogs over and kept them occupied while my husband and I could get out for a few hours. Will definitely contact her again when back in area.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I truly enjoy. I have years of experience helping friends, family, and neighbors with dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. Whether your pet loves adventures, long walks, or simply curling up on the couch, I'm happy to match their routine. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, safe, and loved while giving owners confidence that their furry family member is in great hands. I'll treat your pet like one of my own and always provide regular updates and photos. I work full-time during the week, which makes pet sitting a perfect way to spend my evenings and weekends doing something I love. I'm available for morning, evening, and weekend visits, walks, and overnight care, and I'll always make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and love. I do my best to be flexible and will communicate clearly about my availability so you know exactly what to expect. I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed. I follow each pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and bedtime routines. I make sure pets always have fresh water, plenty of attention, and a secure environment. I'll also send regular photo updates so you always know how your furry family member is doing.

Laura was wonderful!! She was punctual for our “meet and greet” and was very accommodating to the needs of my pup. I had never left him, as he is a rescue and has anxiety issues… and was very hesitant to do so, but Laura was wonderful in sending me updates and pictures to reassure me he was fine. I would definitely recommend her to someone who needs a sitter!!

My family has always had large and small dogs, and I myself have two cats. Making sure that your pets are comfortable and safe are my main priority! I am a mental health therapist with many telehealth clients. My schedule is quite flexible, and I have quite a bit of free time each day!

I think providing a calm environment for your furry friends is most important! I will follow any necessary instructions provided by owners :)

I highly recommend Bella to anyone looking for a top-notch, reliable pet sitter!

Stella did an amazing job taking care of our dogs and we highly recommend you book with her! We recently went out of town and booked Stella to watch our dogs while we were away. She went above and beyond! She was able to handle our two huge dogs perfectly fine with no problem at all. She sent us picture updates each day while we were away, and even followed all of our very detailed instructions we left for our dogs. If you need someone who will do a great job, we highly recommend you book with Stella!

About: My family has had a dog in the house since I was 12. I taught our dogs the basics—sit, stay, play dead, shake, high five—so I’m comfortable with basic training and helping reinforce good habits. I have two cats of my own now, so I’m used to juggling different pet needs and personalities. I’m patient, calm, and pretty in tune with how animals are feeling, whether they need playtime, space, or just a little extra attention. Right now, I'm taking a break from college, which gives me a very flexible schedule for pet care. I already care for my two cats daily, so spending time with animals is a natural and important part of my routine. I have plenty of time and attention to dedicate to other pets, whether it’s for visits, walks, or extended stays. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and familiar environment for them. I always stick to their usual routines as closely as possible—whether that’s feeding times, walks, or playtime—so they feel comfortable and secure while their people are away. I’m super respectful of the space and make sure everything stays clean and safe, especially when it comes to things like gates, doors, and anything a curious pet might get into. I pay close attention to their behavior and body language so I can make sure they’re feeling relaxed, happy, and well cared for.

About: I have grown up with animals and take care of them my whole life. I absolutely love cats and dogs and am currently in university studying to go to veterinary school. I have worked with all kinds of dogs from the most reactive to the most laid so I feel prepared for any situation. I am able to take pets on long walks or runs or just be with them while parents are away! I am currently working 5 days a week but am done by 4:00 everyday giving me plenty of time to work with your pets! I can walk/run with them and stay overnight any day of the week! I am very flexible so whatever you need I can most likely do! I have lots of experience with pets so I will always be sure to take them out and walk them or get them engaged in an activity. I know how to administer many medications both oral and injections so there is no need to worry about your pets health while I am taking care of them!

Rya was absolutely incredible! She took the best care of our doggo and truly treated him like he was part of her own family. As an overly protective pet parent, I def sent her a thousand reminders and instructions, and she handled every single one with kindness, patience, and never once made me feel like I was being over the top (even though I probably was 😂). She was always punctual, incredibly caring, and kept us updated with great communication throughout her stay, which gave us complete peace of mind. She also stayed overnight and left our home spotless, it looked just as good as when we left. If you're looking for someone who is trustworthy, compassionate, reliable, and genuinely loves animals, Rya is the one. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter, and we will absolutely be booking her again. Don't hesitate, book her now. You won't regret it!

Nolan was AWESOME! We did a meet and greet prior to sitting and he was detail focused on their needs. Also asked for more time to play and familiarize the dogs with him. While we were away he sent regular updates and photos/videos. When we returned our dogs seemed like their normal selves, having attention, play time, and relaxation. It was just the experience we were looking for. Highly recommend Nolan for all dog breeds and behaviors.

FAQs for House Sitting - Myrtle Grove

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Myrtle Grove on Rover is $38.85 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 763 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Myrtle Grove. 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 Myrtle Grove 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 Myrtle Grove 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 Myrtle Grove 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Myrtle Grove. On Rover:

  • 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 99% 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.
