“Lauren did a great job taking care of my little fur balls while I was away for a few days. She kept me posted on the visits and let me know how my pets were doing while I was away. Even with the HOT SC August weather, she took my dog for walks during her visits. And she played laser chase with my cat. I'll definitely ask her to watch Heidi and Boots again.”

“Laura was absolutely wonderful with Zuko and Maddux! She took the best care of them and made me feel completely comfortable knowing they were in such good hands. She was attentive, caring, and handled each of their different personalities and needs perfectly. I came home to two happy, well-cared-for pups! We are so grateful for her and will absolutely use Laura again. Highly recommend her!”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cats and have been helping care for them since I was three years old. People have relied on me to house-sit, walk, and take care of their dogs and cats, so I’m comfortable caring for pets in a variety of settings. I’m reliable, active, and comfortable with dogs of different personalities and energy levels. I enjoy walks, playtime, and keeping pets active while respecting their routines and individual needs. I’m comfortable helping with medications and following care instructions. You can also expect regular updates, photos, and quick responses while your pet is in my care. I will treat your pet with the same patience and affection I’d give my own! I’m a Clemson student with a flexible schedule, and I’m especially available on Tuesdays, Thursday’s and weekends. I’m happy to work pet care around my classes and can often accommodate walks, drop-ins, and house sitting throughout the week. I love spending time with animals, so fitting pet care into my routine is something I genuinely enjoy! I always do my best to follow each pet’s normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I carefully follow feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions, and I make sure doors, gates, leashes, and other safety details are handled responsibly. I’m respectful of your home, attentive to your pet’s behavior and needs, and I’ll keep you updated with messages and plenty of photos so you can feel confident they’re in good hands.

About: I have lived with pets my entire life, I have a 5 year old dog currently. Additionally, I’ve pet sat for friends and family frequently when they leave for trips and used to help my grandmother foster kittens! I’m currently a senior at Clemson with a light schedule so I can drop by before/after classes with ease! I have time in the mornings and afternoons for walks and am available most days for pet sitting! I have a very active dog and am used to playing or walking outside for enrichment time. I grew up around cats and dogs and am very fond of both! Whether you need someone to play with them or just keep them company I would love to meet your fur baby.

About: I have a Bachelor's degree in Zoology, and Associates degree in Science and have cared for other peoples pets since I was 17 (August, 3 2026 I'll be 22) besides caring for my parents dogs and cats. I have expireance with special care needs like diabetic pets who need to be given insulin shots, elderly dogs with oral pills they would rather not take, and bouncing puppies who need to let out alot of energy. I also have owned many animals since I was little with minimal parental help. These animals include dogs, cats, snakes, mice, rats, fish, birds, spiders, and frogs. I have experience in highschool vet care and college lab and field experience in herpetology, ornithology, and ictheology. Your fur babies will love spending their time with me when you can't be there. I just graduated college and would love to make money doing somthing I'm good at; careing for animals. Since I just graduated and don't have another job currently I'm free at most times and would love to be of service to you. I will give my undivided attention to make sure your animal is happy and well cared for. I can take your dog to the dog park, and if you want I can bring my dog over for them to play. Dog/cat's needs and feed schedules can be precise. When I was caring for my aunts Diabetic cat I had to feed half of a 1/4 cup give him his insulin shot then feed the other half, this had to happen at 6am and 6pm exactly. The shot had to go into his opposite hip every time (left morning, right afternoon). I hope to offer your pet similarly the best care imaginable.

About: I grew up just north of Columbia on a farm with my family. All I’ve known my whole life is how to make sure animals are safe and cared for. I’ve trained animals from duck dogs to cows and horses. I’m also at Clemson and study animals and have worked in a vet clinic for years. I’m a student at Clemson and want to make a little bit of money to help out with my needs and take a little weight off of my parents shoulders. With how many classes I am in it’s hard to find a job that fits my needs. I give the upmost respect to animals and make sure that their needs are beyond met. I have a one year old Boykin Spaniel that is mine and he is a handful.

About: Bringing happiness to all animals is something that is very important to me because of the love they constantly give us. With multiple years of experience, I am able to make sure your furry friends are well taken care of. Keeping your pets healthy and happy is the most important thing to me. I focus on providing all pets with someone who makes them feel safe and loved while their family is not with them. At the moment I am in between jobs after working for Clemson University for 4 years. I am currently searching for a part-time job I can pair with Rover to keep my schedule as open as possible. I’m very flexible with the care I provide. Every pet has their own routine and habits. I tend to follow any instructions given to take proper care of your pets. In my own home I have a roommate who love animals just as much as me so there will be plenty of pets! We have a dog park nearby I can utilize or a walking path if your pet is a little more introverted.

About: Hi! I am a responsible and caring pet sitter who has loved animals my whole life. I had a French Bulldog named Nugget for 10 years, and I was actively involved in caring for him every day. Through that experience, I learned the importance of patience, attention, and understanding each pet’s unique needs. I am comfortable with feeding, walking, playing, providing companionship, and following any special care instructions. I will treat your pets with the same love and care that I gave Nugget I have a flexible schedule and can make time to provide reliable care for your pets. I am available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, and companionship. I understand the importance of maintaining a pet’s routine and will make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a longtime dog owner, I understand how important it is to follow each pet’s routine and specific care instructions. I will ensure your pet has fresh water, proper feeding, exercise, and lots of attention. I will treat your home with respect and provide updates so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

Lauren was so sweet and just what we needed for our boy. We came to Clemson for the football game and needed someone to let him out during the day. I took a chance with Rover and found Lauren. She walked him extra which I know he enjoyed and she sent me updates and pics the entire time. Will be reaching out to her again if he comes with us for other football games. Thank you so much, Lauren!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Pendleton on Rover is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $30 per visit. 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 October 2026, there are 1,338 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Pendleton. 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 Pendleton. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
