“Christine was fabulous with her week stay with our dog Harper. She communicated often and I was highly confident in how she would take care of our fur baby. She went above and beyond to wash the linens and our house was spotless. We be booking with Christine again!”
“Priscilla did a wonderful job taking care of my dogs. They are very anxious during summer storms and she tried to help them stay calm through every one. Highly recommend her to take care of your four-legged kids!”
About: Been a pet mom since I was young. All the pets, from dogs and cats to reptiles, birds, rodents and fish! Even cared for and rehabilitated a Macaw. My schedule is mostly flexible right now, getting booked up, so please book early! I am willing to do same day, if possible and I am free, so don’t hesitate to reach out! I’ve been pet sitting around Beaufort for the last 2 years. Looking forward to all the love with your babies. Please do not hesitate to ask about discounted rates for multiple pets or extra nights 🐶🐱 Currently working part time, my schedule is pretty flexible at the moment! I can drop in 2-3 times per day on my days off and a few times, depending on your babies schedule, on my days of work. We can work out the sleepovers at time of booking if that’s what you’ll require! I’m open to most requests to make sure your babies are getting the best care so you can enjoy your time away! My kitties have free range of the house and furniture, and it’s kept clean and odor-free lol I will follow what ever your rules are in your home for your pets. I prefer to care for your pets in your home.
About: My whole life I’ve had multiple pets in the home, growing up I had 3 cats and 2 dogs. I currently have a puppy and a cat, I raised the puppy from 4 weeks old to 8 months old. I have experience fostering all kinds of pets especially cats. My career as a pet groomer is centered around dogs and their behaviors, so I have ample experience with all different breeds and behaviors. I work full time as a pet groomer so I’m constantly around pets! I currently have a 8 month old Chihuahua mix and a 1 year old tabby cat and absolutely adore having them around. I’m off all day Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays and would be available all day! I would be able to help out after 6:30 the rest of the weekdays! I will make sure your pet is in their own comfortable environment and follows their regular routine! I have both of my pets on a schedule for eating, exercise, play time and sleeping. All pets need stimulation and companionship, so I prefer to play with your pet for a while and keep them company for as long as you need. I’m not just there to feed the pet, but also provide your pet with comfort and care while making sure they’re getting enough mental stimulation!
About: Hi! I’m Jason, a full-time SCAD student in Savannah. I’m available for Walks/Runs. Drop-In visits & pet sitting in your dog’s home. I dog sat 2 dogs while living and going to school in Chicago and we had so much fun. Coco & Bella 😭💕. I also have a dog of my own back home in Ohio who I miss very deeply. Her name is Lucy. She has a sensitive stomach and a strict diet so I’m familiar with dogs like that as well & know how to care for them. I’m looking forward to meeting your pet. Thank you! 🙏🏽 I’m currently a part time student & a part time employee at a sushi restaurant so I’d honestly like to dog sit whenever I’m available! My home is very minimal but cozy! I don’t have any pets of my own & I have no roommates or anyone coming in or out of the home besides me! So I can ensure the prime safety for all furry friends in my care!
About: Pets are family, and I understand how much trust it takes to place their safety and well-being in someone else’s hands. My dog is my everything, and he has his own unique quirks and special accommodations, so I know firsthand that pet care is never one-size-fits-all. I will take the time to learn your pet’s personality, routine, preferences, and individual needs while carefully listening to your requests. My goal is to care for your pet the way you would, whether that means extra patience, a favorite walking route, a specific feeding routine, special accommodations, or plenty of cuddles and reassurance! I will treat your pet like one of my own and provide warm, attentive care that helps both you and your pet feel safe, comfortable, and at ease. I work full time during the week, so pet care fits best into my evenings and weekends, when I can be fully present and give each pet the attention they deserve. I’m available for weekend walks, drop-in visits, and overnight stays, and I plan my schedule carefully so I never overcommit. Caring for my own dog is already an important part of my daily routine, so walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and plenty of love come naturally to me! I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes, where pets can remain comfortable in their familiar surroundings and maintain their normal routines. I take time to understand each pet’s feeding schedule, walking routine, personality, favorite activities, and any special instructions or accommodations they may need. I will treat your home with respect and care for your pet as closely as possible to the way you would. This includes providing meals and fresh water, walks, playtime, companionship, bathroom breaks, and plenty of affection based on your pet’s individual preferences. I’ll also send regular photos and updates so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away!
“Tim is awesome! I’ve used many sitters through Rover and Tim is the best! This is the 2nd time he has watched my 4 dogs and chickens at my house. He feeds them and spends a great deal of time with them. He also goes above and beyond by sweeping my floors and washing the bedding in my guest bedroom he slept in. It’s nice going on vacation and not having to worry. It’s also great coming home from vacation to happy dogs and a clean house.”
“You’re not going to find a more attentive and caring house and pet sitter than Michael. I am so happy and relieved that our paths crossed and will only be using his services going forward for further needs. His care for my home and 3 cats went above and beyond. He cleaned my fridge, first floor, and windows! One of my cats got sick repeatedly, even requiring a vet visit and home medication administration, and Michael tended to these needs with enthusiasm. You won’t go wrong choosing Michael to look after your home and animals!”

The average cost of House Sitting in Okatie is $55 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 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 Okatie 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 Okatie 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 Okatie 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
