“Sarah was amazing! She arrived on time, very kind, followed requests, updated us during her visit, and took great care of our fur babies! We are looking forward to using her services again.”
About: Hello, My name is Tracey and I have grown up with pets my whole life. We had cats in my house as early as I can remember and I have always had a soft spot for them. When I was young I actually used to be a bit afraid of dogs until my two siblings begged and begged my mom to her wits end. She told me to pluck up and a few days later we came home with a sweet old black Pomeranian. Basil and I bonded like no other. From then I always helped pet care for my own family and for our neighbors. As well, one my siblings forayed into less common pet ownership, where I got to learn the basics of care for Guinea pigs, rats, lizards (hers had scoliosis), and even small snakes! Currently, I have one pet of my own - a sweet little three-legged cat who can charm his way into anyone’s heart. I have a lot of love to give for animals and want to help care for your pet like I hope someone would care for mine while I am gone! I am available any time of the day, any day of the week to help take care of your precious furry family! I have car for reliable transportation and can drive to any location for the job opportunity open. Currently I have an indoor cat and he does not go outside but has a litter box and more than enough toys to make him happy. With dogs I make sure that they are harness or on a lead before we go outside since I do not have a closed in front yard. If the pet I am sitting lives in a space with a fenced in yard I would let them out at the owners permission and make sure they were supervised. I also make sure not to let pets eat human food as many things are harmful and/or then could have allergies.
“Ambry went over the top to make my 10 year Old grey tabby to feel safe and loved while we were In Europe for two weeks. The longest I ever left her was a week in Atlanta with a pet sitter she knew for Almost 10 years. I hit the jackpot with Ambyr !”
“Courtney always does such a great time with my 2 dogs and cat. She always shows up and I can tell the animals are happy when I get back. Always worry free when I know Courtney is taking care of them!!!”
“I can't thank Andrea enough for taking care of my 2 cats. She was patient, calm, kind, and just wonderful with my fur family. Even over Thanksgiving, she visited to refresh water, food, and the litter box and sent pictures of each cat, and let me know how they were doing. It was an awesome stress relief during my trip and I knew my kitties were well taken care of. 5 stars and highly recommended to look after your fur family.”
“Alexis did a great job looking after my kitty! He's used to having a human around all the time, so he gets lonely when I travel. Alexis made sure he got some much needed pets and attention in addition to food, water, and litterbox scooping.”
About: I've had a pet of some sort my entire life whether it was dogs, cats, bunnies, lizards, hamsters or snakes! I love caring for animals of any kind. I currently have 3 fur babies, 2 dogs and a cat, and 9 featherrd ones, chickens! Sharing my love for pets by helping out while folks are away doesn't feel like a job to me but more of a fun opportunity to do something I love. I am currently working full time from home with a flexible schedule. I can take breaks for drop-ins and walks when it's convenient and if your fur baby is at my home I have a fenced back yard they can roam in anytime of day. I have a fenced space in the back yard with plenty of room for fetch and two friendly pooches to keep yours company! My husband and I work opposite shifts so someone is always home to give the fur babies love!
“Magan did an awesome job and we are so excited to have found our fur babies a new companion when we are away! We will be using Magan a lot! She is timely, responsive, and follows instructions well!”

About: For the last five years I house sat and walked many dogs but my primary job was to care for a single house of 8 dogs as well as other farm animals. The dogs ranged from puppies to end of life, and as such I am comfortable caring for any dog at any age. It was so much fun (and work) getting to learn each dogs personality and habits and catering to those needs. This includes individualized walks and playtime's, special treats as each dog has their favorite, as well as caring and cleaning up after dogs when they have potty problems. I'm capable and comfortable administering any medicine if needed. I'm flexible and can work with your schedule. I can't wait to meet your dog!

About: Hi! I’m Bridgette. I’m 29 years old and I have 6 year old Aussie named Bo and a 1.5 year old grey tabby named Cleo. Ever since I was little, I’ve always had an animal in my family whether that being a dog or a cat. You might see my reviews are from a couple years ago, since then I graduated with my RN moved away to Raleigh for a short time and have settled in Easley, SC. I have the most experience with dogs ranging from Yorkie size to Labrador size and cats. As you can tell by having a dog who needs exercise, you can catch us on walks or playing ball/frisbee in the dog park located at my apartment complex. I decided to re-join Rover as I recently moved to the area and wanted to spend my free time playing with animals in my spare time! When it comes to boarding, I normally only like to do max 2 night due to work schedules. However, please feel free to contact me with any requests or questions! Happy Rovering! 😺🐶 I am on an RN schedule, so I will likely be off for 4 days a week. I’m pretty flexible when it comes to availability, just ask me! Animals are treated as though they are my children. I always say my children have 4 legs (a 5 year old dog and cat). I tend to spoil my animals because I always find a reason to buy at least one of them something when I go to the store. I know most people have their our routines with their animals and I will absolutely abide by that in your home.
About: I have had pets my whole life and many different types. I have had dogs, cats, lizards, birds, hamsters, and a rabbit. I currently have 4 cats and 2 dogs. Which will be kept separate from any pets I watch. I am currently working from home and my work is slow, so I have plenty of time to give a pet the attention they need. I have a big front yard. I also have 2 dogs in a fenced back yard however they can be moved to allow pets to run in that yard.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,741 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Pickens. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Pickens stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Pickens. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
