“Hannah did a great job taking care of our dog. She sent lots of pictures everyday and kept us in the loop with how he was doing daily. It was nice to enjoy our summer vacation and not have to worry about our pet.”

“Sasha was great! Excellent communication both before and throughout our dog’s stay. You could tell she spent a lot of time with our dog and he was very comfortable with her. He almost seemed a little sad to come home.😜 We will definitely book Sasha again for any future dog sitting needs.”


“We were so happy with the care that was given to our pup by Lila. He is an elderly dog and she was so kind and thoughtful to his needs. Added bonus…our guy made a new friend with her pup. We would highly recommend Lila and hope to use her services in the future!”

“Sarah was wonderful! Our dog is 10 years old and has been sick so he’s on several medications twice a day and Sarah took wonderful care of him. I was incredibly anxious about leaving him and she provided daily updates and pictures that showed he was in great hands. We picked him up and he was perfectly happy and seemed to have had a great time with Sarah and her family! Would absolutely recommend and would love for Sarah to watch any of our pets in the future!”
“Zadok and his family were excellent sitters for my cat Rango. We only had him for a few months so sending him off was quite a challenge especially with not knowing who we were sending him to. Zadok quickly made us feel comfortable and communicated every step of the way prior to the boarding, during the boarding and even after. He truly does have a heart for the pets he keeps and would highly recommend him to anyone needing sitting services. His place is neat and clean and he is truly accommodating to the needs of the pets he keeps.”

“Rebecca truly loves animals cat and dogs. She sent pictures every day. I think my 2 dogs through they were at Disney World. They loved staying with Rebecca and her family.”

“Tori and her family were fantastic! Very welcoming to us and Daisy and I felt confident leaving my girl with her. Tori gave great updates and looked like such a blast. I came home to a happy, worn out pup who had a weekend away- which is the absolute best feeling- knowing she wasn’t just taken care of, but that she also really enjoyed her stay!”

“Thank you Diane for taking such great care of my dog. Charlie is a skittish miniature poodle mix that does not connect with everyone. Diane made her feel at home and sent pictures. I would definitely recommend Diane and we will be using her again.”

“Kristi and Will were amazing with our boy Winston. They sent multiple pictures and updates a day that helped us feel like he was getting the best care and attention while away from home. We could reach out any time to check in and would always get a response right away. We could tell he enjoyed his time and would absolutely recommend them to anyone that needed their pup watched!”


“Genny was absolutely amazing! She sent so many photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I could tell my dog felt completely relaxed and comfortable in her care—he looked so happy in every picture! It’s clear how much she genuinely cares for the pets she watches, and I’m so grateful for the attention and love she gave him. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Genny again!”

“Best sitter combo saved the day last week. I had a last minute trip with only one days notice, and they accepted the opportunity to watch Teddy w/ no hesitation. Teddy had a great time that weekend and they made it feel so safe and welcoming and it was my first time using them.”

“Kate and family were wonderful and caring to our senior dog. Kate went above and beyond to help Shelby feel comfortable in a new place. Will request booking again!”


“Very glad to have found Jonathan and Carla to watch Evie for me! She started playing with their cute little pup when I dropped her off and I got updates with pictures of her while I was away! Evie definitely enjoyed her stay with them and was so happy while she was with them and when I picked her up! I would definitely recommend using them and will use them again!”

About: I have had dogs and cats since I was little allowing me to care for different pets at all ages. I have had Dachshunds and a Mini Australian Shepherd giving me the chance to learn how to best care for dogs of different temperaments. I love and am able to cater to pets of all ages and their needs!! I am attending MUSC for SLP school so I am only able to help pet parents Downtown unless able to drop off at my house. I am available around my class and work schedule during the week. I do not have an exact schedule yet but will try my best to be flexible! I will give your pets lots of attention and love. I know it’s hard for pets when they anre away from home so I will try to stick to their usual schedule as much as possible. I will treat them like they are my own pets!!
“This was our Ollie’s second time staying with Carly, and once again she was wonderful! We received plenty of updates and pictures. She is always great and reliable. I always know our pup is in good hands!”

“Who was going to watch our pup fell through at the very last minute before we had to go out of town. Paul was so quick to respond and confirm caring for Peter. Another added detail is he was in recovery from an eye issue and needed extra love and care as he had medication and a cone. Once we got there, he showed the spaces that Peter was going to hang out in, made sure to fully understand any special instructions that were needed and while we were gone, took such good care of him. He would go out of his way every day to send an update with multiple photos. I never had to ask. Everything was so clean and nice and we were put at ease the whole trip knowing that he was in good hands. 100/10 would recommend, your pet will be taken such good care of!”


“I am so thankful for the wonderful care provided while I was away ❤️ Kathryn & Hovey were super accommodating and made diesel comfy and cared for. I really appreciated the updates & pics too - thanks so much! We will definitely be reaching out for care in the future.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Old Joe
Oksana was amazing!! It was my first time leaving my puppy so I was pretty nervous, but she sent me pictures of him all the time and kept me updated on what he was up to. He had so much fun he didn’t even want to come home! Will definitely be rebooking with her and would recommend her to anyone!

Oksana provided great care for our two dogs. She was very attentive, communicated well and provided photos throughout the dogs' stay. Our dogs are older dogs and needed extra care and we felt very comfortable having our dogs stay at their home. I highly recommend Oksana.

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 Old Joe home-away-from-home, 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 Old Joe.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Old Joe 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 , 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 .
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.
