“Amber was a ROCK STAR! She was timely, professional and a great communicator. Our six year old Basenji is difficult on a good day. Add in the fact that she is now sick and needs shots twice a day, and you have a bit of chaos morning and night. Amber handled her with grace, patience and ingenuity. I would highly recommend using Amber for pet care and will definitely request her again.”

“Hannah was absolutely great! Our cats dont typically go up to strangers, but they felt comfortable with her right away and came to her dueing our meet & greet. She made sure that she stopped by within the window of time needed for my dog's bathroom schedule. She took the best pictures of our animals and they seemed to enjoy her visits. She even went out of her way to bring a perishable package in and put it away for me. I will definitely be rebooking with her in the future.”

About: I currently have a 4 year old Belgian Malinois. I used to accompany my sister when she started dog sitting, and as I have gotten older, I've branched out to dog sit on my own. I have gained recognition for my attention to detail, being compatible with most dogs, dog sitting for multiple breeds, caring for senior dogs, and handling pet medication with care. I have an incredibly flexible schedule to be there for your loved pets anytime! Being an owner myself, it feels second nature to care for your pets with love and care. Pertaining to my everyday schedule, I currently work remotely with an incredibly flexible schedule. I will care for your pets with consistent love, care, and attention. If you book with me, I appreciate your trust to allow me to be in your home and to take care of your loved pets.

“Alison was great with our 2 cats and 1 dog! From the meet and greet she was able to connect with even the sassy cat. Alison took great care of the animals and was even able to medicate one as requested. We would recommend Alison to anyone and hire her again. Thank you Alison!”

About: I was raised with dogs my whole life. Iv done everything from helping with birthing to providing comfortable space for our fur babies to go to heaven I’m a stay at home dog mom. I enjoy being at home with my fur babies playing outside/enjoying the weather making happy memories and moments I have a fenced yard and two friendly girl fur babies that love to play with other dogs and get zoomies all around my spacious fenced yard.
“Stephanie has been doing a great job taking care of Ghost a seven year old Great Pyrenees, She has been taking him out in the afternoon to potty and walk around. She has brought in packages left outside. She has been very reliable. I highly recommend her to take care of your pet.”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover based on a 10-acre homestead in Pageland, SC. I specialize in structured, safe boarding with supervised outdoor time and secure indoor accommodations. We have a brand-new 6-foot wooden privacy fence enclosing our backyard, providing a secure area for dogs to exercise, stretch, and explore during supervised potty breaks and play sessions. Guests stay in our large climate-controlled sunroom outfitted with seven kennels, giving each dog their own secure space to rest comfortably between outdoor time, meals, and enrichment. Crate rotation and routine breaks are built into our daily schedule, ensuring dogs have consistency and predictability. Crate & House Access Policy • Crating is standard when we are away or sleeping, and during rest periods. • Potty breaks are offered approximately every 2 hours during waking hours. • For older, calm, fully house-trained, non-destructive, and cat-friendly dogs, free-roam house access may be considered on a case-by-case basis with owner request and compatibility assessment. • Dogs with separation anxiety, destructive tendencies, or unsafe habits (counter-surfing, door-bolting, etc.) will remain on our structured crate schedule for their safety. Experience & Approach I’ve owned and cared for everything from hedgehogs and geckos to chickens, horses, and working-breed dogs. I’m comfortable with: • Medication administration (oral or topical) • Senior dogs • Puppies & house-training stages • Reactive or shy personalities • High-energy dogs who require clear routines • Multi-dog coexistence and safe rotations My husband runs his own business and is home most of the time, ensuring someone is almost always present for supervision, potty break intervals, and routine care. I am home evenings and weekends, and we work together to provide structure, security, and consistent monitoring. What You Can Expect • Individual crate spaces (no shared kennels) • 6-ft fully fenced private yard • Consistent potty break schedule (≈ every 2 hours) • Supervised outdoor time only • Optional house freedom only if fully compatible • Daily updates, photos, and communication We focus on safe, predictable, and tailored care based on each dog’s needs and the comfort level of their owner. Whether a pup thrives with structured crate rest or enjoys calm, supervised sunroom naps, we tailor stays responsibly rather than one-size-fits-all. I work full-time as an insurance producer in Monroe, NC from 8–5, Monday through Friday. I’m home all day on weekends, and during the week, my husband is at our homestead full-time and helps provide care and supervision. Since we work as a team, your pets will never be left alone for long periods. I’m also available for morning or evening drop-ins and walks depending on location and schedule! We live on a peaceful 10-acre homestead. We do not allow free play with other pets - so you know that your furry friend is safe and sound the entire stay! They will have supervised playtime with other pups from the same household, or with just our staff! Our top priority is a safe stay.

About: I grew up in a household caring for pets of every kind; cats, dogs, birds! Fish! I currently have a puppy of my own and pet-sit often for friends and family as well! I’m working part time, typically no more than three days a week, and taking online classes this summer for college. My availability is mostly during the week, and occasionally Saturdays, starting at early mornings after I care for my own dog Making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in the absence of their primary caregiver is my top priority. Having a dog who’s wary of strangers, I understand and am completely committed to doing what I was hired to do and making sure pets get the care they deserve no matter the level of introversion or anxiety.

“Luke went above and beyond with our Daisy! After the first visit she was looking forward to him coming back! Also went the extra step of ensuring our house was secure and ready for our return! Thanks Luke!”

About: I love animals and I know people say that but I truly do. I have been working with animals since I could walk and I’ve never not had a pet whether it was a dog cat or hamster I’ve even had snakes. I now have a new dog and a cat and I would love to help others with there animals when needed because I understand completely that it is needed a lot. I currently work in landscaping so my hours are 6 in the morning and we’re usually off by 5 maybe 6 and occasionally I get off earlier or have daysoff. I am also free on weekends I have church on Sundays but that only takes about an hour of the day. I have 2 pets in my own home now so it’s a lot easier to do house sitting instead of in home care and my boyfriend watches my animals while I’m away. I am free to spend the night at anytime and even just sit with the animals for hours on end and the animals will always come first before any other plans.
About: For the past 4 years, I’ve provided loving, dependable care for cats, dogs, and birds through overnight stays, drop-in visits, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and walks. Cats are my specialty! I’m very experienced with feline behavior, shy cats and multi-cat households. I love making pets feel calm and comfortable while their owners are away. I also have experience caring for dogs with different energy levels and routines, including daily walks, companionship, and overnight care. In addition, I have hands on experience with tropical birds and understand the importance of patience, consistency and attention to detail when caring for exotic pets. What sets me apart is the genuine love and attention I give every animal! I take my time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and comfort needs so they feel safe, relaxed, and cared for. I am reliable, communicative, and committed to making pet parents feel confident while they’re away through regular updates and attentive care. I am currently a part-time worker at a local pharmacy and a Full-Time college student looking to make extra money while doing what I love. I am free at least 3-4 days a week, the more notice the better I can work around your preferred schedule. My preference is afternoons, however if mornings or nights are needed I can accommodate! I am more free during week days but can make time on weekends around my work schedule as I typically only work 5-6 hour shifts. I currently can not offer my personal living quarters for care, however I am able to travel up to 40 miles to stay with or check on pets. If you are in need of someone urgently and live outside a 40 mile radius please message me directly and I may be able to still work with you! I will walk, feed, stay with, play with and care for various cats and dog breeds! I also have experience with tropical birds and fish if need be. I will clean up after all animals and leave your home tidy and neat, as well as provide updates at your desired time span i.e (Daily, Hourly, Etc.).
“Is there a 12 star button because Ashley was absolutely amazing. She went well above and beyond what I ever expected. She was very attentive to details with Keebler and the house. I will be using her again.”

“Our Sadie can be a nervous girl and Morgan was so amazing with her! Morgan was always early to her drop ins and took pictures each time and made sure to leave comments while she was here. Morgan is the absolute best and we will be booking with her again soon!”

About: At the humane society, I had the opportunity to care for dogs of all shapes and sizes, each with their own unique needs and personalities. Their care required gentle handling and tailored diets to ensure their delicate health. Throughout my time, I also handled a variety of mixed breeds, each with its own temperament and care requirements. This variety kept each day interesting and taught me to adapt quickly to the needs of different dogs. Whether it was administering medication, providing enrichment, or simply offering a comforting presence, I gained a deep understanding of how to cater to a wide range of canine needs. I’m currently working part time, since I’m a student in college, I’ll be available to work around 1 pm on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. On Tuesdays around 2 pm. I understand how important your dog is to you, and I'm committed to providing the best care possible. I've had extensive experience with various dogs. I’ll follow any specific instructions you provide and keep you updated with regular check-ins and photos to ensure you feel at ease while you're away. Your dog's comfort and safety are my top priorities.
About: I’ve spent years caring for animals of all kinds—dogs, cats, and everything in between. With hands-on experience in feeding, grooming, training, and holistic wellness, I understand not just how to meet a pet’s needs, but how to truly connect with them. My approach is gentle, intuitive, and rooted in love. Whether it’s managing multiple pets or supporting animals with anxiety or medical needs, I’m dedicated to creating a calm, safe environment where every pet feels at home. I'm available for pretty much anything need. My schedule is very flexible. Throughout the day, I pay close attention to their moods, making time for play, brushing, or just sitting quietly with them when they need comfort. Their well-being is a priority in everything I do, and caring for them brings structure, peace, and purpose to my day. When I care for other people’s animals, I treat them like they’re my own—with patience, gentleness, and full attention. I take time to learn their routines, personalities, and needs, so they feel safe and comfortable while their owner is away. Whether it’s feeding, cleaning, playing, or just sitting with a shy pet to help them feel calm, I make sure every moment is rooted in trust and love. I know how much animals mean to their families, and I do everything I can to give them peace of mind.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all kinds since I was 10 years old. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I truly love animals and always make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I'm currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time during the week to care for and play with your pups. Can't wait to become your pet's bestfriend!!!! I’m comfortable going to your home to care for your pet. I always make sure your furry friend feels safe and loved in their own space. I follow instructions carefully and treat every pet like family.

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 Polkton 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.

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.
