“Jennifer is amazing!! So attentive and spent quality time with my Charlie. She gave me details on all visits and great pictures while I was away. Definitely recommend!!”
“I highly recommend Delia to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible and great dog sitter! This was our first time using her and definitely plan on using her again soon. We have 2 big dogs and 2 cats that can be a handful, but she did great and they loved her. Always prompt and we're grateful we found her.”
About: Hey y'all! My name is Hunter and I used to run a pet care business with my mom for about 4 or 5 years called Paws & Purrs. We continued to take on a few clients for a few more years after she closed Paws & Purrs to pursue her furniture business further! I helped to take care of and walk a variety of different dogs; Great Danes, mastiffs, pitbulls, shitzus, corgis, labs, and a whole ton more! I have ample experience in walking, sitting, feeding and much more animal care knowledge. I can't wait to meet all of your furry friends! I work full time as a medical receptionist, so I'll be walking and meeting your furry friends in my down time. My schedule is as follows for availability: Monday Wednesday and Friday after 4:00 pm Tuesday and Thursday after 6:00 pm Saturday and Sunday all day I've walked dogs of all sizes for about 8 1/2 years. I create a pet-friendly environment, removing hazards and providing cozy spots for rest. I maintain their regular schedule for feeding, walks, and playtime to minimize stress and keep them feeling secure. For active breeds, I ensure they get plenty of physical activity through walks, runs, or playtime in a secure area. I keep pet owners updated with photos and messages, providing peace of mind while they’re away. I maintain a clean environment, regularly picking up after pets and ensuring their living area is tidy. By focusing on these aspects, I ensure a positive and nurturing experience for pets in my care.
“Katrina is fantastic! She was so willing to do a little meet and greet with our two cats. She was so communicative, and made sure to give us updates on the cats. Can not recommend her enough!”
About: I have approached every single dog owner I have ever seen in order to ask them to pet their dog. My friends and family have always called me a dog whisperer because I’m usually able to even pet the shyest of dogs. I am looking to work part time. I am about to go back to college, but I am free every day except Sunday mornings (church) and Monday night (small groups). I have two Australian shepherds whom I have helped to train. I take them on at least one walk a day and we have a fenced in yard which they can go out into multiple times a day. I help to feed them and take care of them on a daily basis.
About: Hi, my name is Kailey! I’ve always had a deep love for animals and have been caring for them since I was a kid. I come from a big family of pet lovers, and I’ve always been the one everyone calls when they need a reliable pet-sitter. Over the years, I’ve fostered kittens and pregnant cats, volunteered at animal charity events, and even helped with animal political campaigning my own dog ran for mayor and won! Whether it’s sitting, fostering, or supporting animal causes, I put my heart into everything I do, and I truly enjoy being part of the animal world. Hello! I’m Kailey! I’ve had a love for animals my entire life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I’ve lived in the Charleston area for going on two years and work part-time in IOP, which gives me flexibility in my schedule. I’d love the opportunity to care for your furry family members, give them lots of love and attention, and make sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away! 🐾 I will not be having any animals in my home due to my own two cats (Robert and sunny) being very shy! Sorry for any inconvenience!
“Payton took the best care of my babies and she administered medication properly to our older cat. She was very communicative and thoughtful, and ensured that we got to see our girls every day.”
About: • Lifetime Dog Lover: I’ve had dogs for years and cared for many family dogs, so I understand their needs and quirks. • Professional Experience: I worked at a dog kennel where I cared for all kinds of breeds, and I loved every single part of it. • Compassionate Care: I’m patient, kind, and make sure every dog feels comfortable, safe, and loved. • Dedicated Attention: As a stay-at-home mom with a flexible schedule, I can truly focus on your dog’s care and happiness. As a stay-at-home mom with a very flexible schedule, I have plenty of time to devote to caring for pets. I’m available throughout the day and week, which allows me to give consistent attention and love to the animals I watch. I do have a friendly, well-trained dog in my home who is very social and used to dogs staying with us. Safety is my top priority, and I always supervise introductions and interactions carefully. If needed, dogs can also be kept separated to ensure everyone is comfortable and safe. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I make sure their routines stay as consistent and comfortable as possible. In my home, I provide a safe, loving environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and care. In a client’s home, I follow their specific instructions closely from feeding schedules to walks, playtime, and cuddles so their pets feel secure and cared for in their familiar space. My goal is always to treat every pet like family and make them feel happy, safe, and loved.
About: Hi! I’m Emma, a 26-year-old dog lover based in Charleston, SC. I’ve grown up around dogs and genuinely love spending time with them—whether that’s long walks, playtime, or just keeping them company while you’re away. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every pet like they’re my own. I live an active lifestyle and enjoy getting outside, which makes me a great match for pups who love walks and fresh air, but I’m just as happy hanging out with more low-key or senior dogs too. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I always do my best to stick closely to what they’re comfortable with. I work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be around pets throughout the day. I’m able to take frequent walks, provide timely potty breaks, stick closely to feeding schedules, and give plenty of attention! What You Can Expect From Me: • Consistent updates and photos • Punctuality and clear communication • Lots of attention, patience, and love • Respect for your home and your pet’s routine

About: I absolutely love dogs, cats and most any animal. I’ve pet & house sat for others on multiple occasions and have loved it, so I want to do it more frequently! This includes, feeding, walking, playing with the animals, etc. My schedule is flexible but I usually run errands during the day and work some mornings/some evenings! Would love to have some furry company since I don’t have a dog of my own currently :) Whatever you need me to do I will do! I’ll play and walk the dog however much it needs and put it on a good feeding schedule and make sure they’re happy and healthy.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Old Joe is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $29 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 2,660 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Old Joe. 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Old Joe. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
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.
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.
