About: Hi! Animals have pretty much always been the center of my life. I grew up with dogs, cats, and horses, have been pet sitting since I was 12, earned my degree in Animal Science from Virginia Tech, and spent two years working professionally with horses after college. I currently work in veterinary client care and have plenty of experience with everything from daily care and medications to the occasional pet who has very specific opinions about how things should be done. I have my own Australian Shepard, Ripley, so I’m no stranger to zoomies, long walks, and pup cups! I’m comfortable with pets of all different personalities and needs, and I’m happy to stick as closely as possible to whatever routine makes your pet happiest. I also know how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your pet with someone else, so pictures and updates are always part of the deal! My work schedule varies throughout the week, which gives me flexibility for pet care on both weekdays and weekends. I keep my availability updated and am happy to work with you to find care that fits your pet’s normal routine. When I’m home, I spend lots of time walking, playing, and going on adventures with my own dog. I have a friendly dog of my own who loves having company! I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, crate time, and any other preferences you have. For pets staying with me, I’ll always make sure everyone is comfortable together and has their own space when needed. In your home, I’ll treat your pet, their routine, and your space with the same care and respect I’d want for my own.

About: I have been passionate about taking care of animals since I volunteered at my first animal shelter cleaning cages at 11 years old. I have been fortunate enough to carry that into adulthood, partnering with two local shelters. I have dedicated thousands of hours in my home to fostering and supporting the adoption of local shelter dogs for the last two years. In my personal time, when not volunteering, I am training for an upcoming marathon, so for pups who require more than an afternoon stroll, I am happy to have them tag along on my runs, short or long distance! I have one Persian cat named Sir Alfred who is 12 years bold, and a 2 year old Doberman named Circe, who both have plenty of experience welcoming new faces into our home. I have experience with more aggressive dogs and cats, and I am comfortable with dogs that might be considered difficult on a leash. I work full time, and also serve in the Army reserves one month a year locally, but I am available for lunch, evening, and weekend walks/stop ins. For boarding, I am able to spend time before and after work, as well as hour long lunch breaks with my house guests! When I have guests who aren’t very cat friendly, my cat has his own safe room in the house that he stays. My dog Circe goes for a morning run with me every morning, and is crated during the day while I work. I spend my weekends taking her to local parks or events. I have a fenced in back yard that everyone has access to at their own enjoyment. My live in partner and I work together with our pets to ensure they are always mentally and physically stimulated.

About: I have grown up around dogs my entire life and am very comfortable with all ages and breeds. I have experience with medications, senior dog needs, special care needs. I love to go on walks and have experience walking multiple dogs. I don’t have as much experience with cats but I love them all the same! I currently work school hours 7:30 am - 3:30 pm. I have a 15 minute commute to work. It would be my priority to let your pet out, walk them and/or play time, immediately once I am off work. Additionally I would take extra time in the morning to make sure their needs are met and they are comfortable while I am at work. My pets are more than roommates. I am the kind of person that will sit on the floor if they are already sitting in my spot on the couch.

About: I have always been surrounded by animals my whole life. Back home I have 8 doggos between the ages of two and five who are unique in their own ways. I have two chihuahua/dachshund mixes,a boxer/pit bull mix, a black lab, a chocolate lab, a yellow lab, and two red labs. Every day is a new adventure for sure. I have personal experience with high energy doggos, reactive dogs, anxious dogs, potty accidents, special diets, kennel training, leash training, puppies, senior care, sick animals, puppy parvo, seizures, ear infections, fleas, ticks, dog and cat pregnancy, dog attacks, surgery care, wound care, animal grooming (nails, teeth, eyes, dry skin, coats), and much more. I sincerely enjoy giving all fur babies all the love and dedication they deserve. While I know it is hard to find someone who is willing and prepared to provide the care a pet needs, I am more than honored to be able to work with you if the fit is right. I am currently working full time at a coffee shop. Most of my shifts are early morning, so I am usually available anytime after 2-4:30 pm. I will always treat your pets with the utmost respect as I understand how important they are to you. I would want my own doggos to be treated the same. I know everyone has different standards when it comes to feeding, walking, outside time, etc. so I am more than willing to learn your pet's schedule to be able to benefit all involved. At no point would I ever try to input my own practices onto your animals without your permission.

About: Ive had my dog since she was a puppy, she is well socialized and loves meeting other dogs and sharing her space! I have experience with puppies, high energy dogs, older dogs, and providing medication to pets. I am home on weekends but would love to take your pup out for walks if it’s okay with you! If walks aren’t something you’re comfortable with I also have a fully fenced yard for dogs to run around in. I’m available for boarding on weekends, I’m an home body so I’ll be with them almost all of the time. I can do drop ins during the week after work! I have a fenced yard and my own dog who loves to make new friends. I allow dogs on furniture and in bed but can crate your fuzzy friend if that is how they are trained for sleep. I’ve had my dog since she was a baby and I frequently pet sit for friends.

About: I’ve been saying for years that my life goal is to pet every dog I can—and Rover is the perfect way to do that while giving pets the care they deserve. I’ve had dogs for 15+ years (all rescues) and experience with everything from energetic ball lovers to laid-back cuddle bugs. I’m comfortable with all sizes, puppies, seniors, and administering medication, and I always tailor care to each dog’s personality and routine. I have a flexible daytime schedule, reliable transportation, and enjoy both active walks and relaxed hangouts. I’m also beginning volunteer work with a local animal shelter to continue growing my experience. My goal is simple: to build my new dog pack while making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and right at home. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine. I have a flexible daytime schedule, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, whether that’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company throughout the day. Since I work evenings as a DJ, I’m typically available during the hours when many pets need the most care and interaction. I enjoy staying active, so daily walks are something I already prioritize, and I’m just as happy spending relaxed time with dogs who prefer a calmer pace. Whether it’s drop-in visits, extended stays, or regular walks, I’m able to be consistent, reliable, and fully present for your pet. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat both your pet and your space with the same respect and attention I would my own. I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions—so they feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. I’m very mindful about safety, including keeping doors secure, monitoring behavior, and making sure your pet is always in a safe environment. I’m also comfortable administering medication if needed and keeping a close eye on any changes in behavior or health. You can expect clear communication and updates during each visit, so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to provide reliable, consistent care that gives you peace of mind and keeps your pet happy in their own home.

FAQs for Dog Sitting - North Charleston

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in North Charleston is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $31 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 2,649 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across North Charleston. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. 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 North Charleston 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.

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.

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. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in North Charleston with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.

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.
