“Absolutely excellent!! Took great care of my cats and gave me daily updates with pictures of them. I was very worried about leaving them but they were in great hands! You have a repeat customer out of me!”
“Bailly is our go-to for our cat Crosley while we’re out of town. She’s very sweet with him, plays with him and keeps him company while we’re gone. We are confident with her watching over our kitty when we can’t.”
About: I have had dogs my whole life- they are my family. My love for animals led me on the path towards veterinary. Now I am attending Tri-County technical college to transfer to Clemson for veterinary. Life is beautiful💕 I currently have college classes every weekday, however my available days are Sunday, Monday, Friday, and Saturday. Monday and Fridays I am free after 2PM. However my animals at home receive lots of attention when I get home from school everyday and love to play outside. Following your instructions and having both you AND your dog feeling safe and secure in the care I provide is very important to me. If possible I’d love to have close communication with the pet parent to prevent any mistakes.
About: I have grooming, training, & boarding experience. I’m experienced in administering medications; pills, eye drops, shots, etc. Animals are my peace so I’d love to give a peace of mind to others😊 I’m available full time, there are currently 6 dogs & 2 cats in my house & the pups get outside about 3-5 times a day depending on the weather. I also have a 3 year old whos with me 3 days out of the week. I have a fenced in yard, all of my pups & my sisters are crated when not supervised. I would prefer crates brought when staying with me just for safety reasons! & if I were to watch your pup in your hone they’d get the same love & care they receive from you😊
About: I have owned pets all of my life. Over the years, I have owned dogs, cats, chinchillas, and conures. Pets are members of your family, not just animals living in your house! I am 65 years old and I currently substitute teach part time. I would be very flexible with hours to visit to your home and when I come see your pet; I will treat them as if they were my own. When coming into your home, I would take the time to get to know your pets needs and personality. Every pet is an individual. They need to be treated with respect and loving kindness.
About: What separates me from other sitters is my level of patience and attentiveness, so you’ll never have to worry about your furry friend being lonely I currently work as a barista from the hours of 4am untill 11am, giving me all the time in the world to care for your pups or kittens! I personally enjoy taking walks a couple times a day, so you never have to fret about their potty schedule. Your pup will come back to you fresh, fed, and happy! I thoroughly follow my client’s instructions while providing excellent care. I have a 5 year old blue heeler that LOVES to play if your pup wants company while hanging out :)
About: I have provided professional pet-care in & out of my own home for over seven years. I am dedicated to treating your pets and your home as if it is my own. I am devoted to ensuring my schedule is built around the care of your animal. I currently work for myself, making flexibility easy for me. Quality service is my number one priority. My focus as a provider is keeping your pet as comfortable as possible, by giving them individualized attention and specialized care.
About: I’ve been dog sitting for about 3 years, and I also worked at a doggy daycare for a year! During that time, I gained experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. Working at a daycare taught me how important patience and understanding are, especially when dogs miss their owners, feel anxious, or don’t want to eat. I know every dog is different, and I always take the time to understand their individual needs and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I truly enjoy spending time with dogs, and I treat every pet as if they were my own! I’m currently a college student, so my schedule and availability change each semester depending on my classes. I also work part-time on weekends, but I have free time during the week that I would love to spend caring for dogs! While weekdays are generally easier for me, I’m also open to weekend pet sitting and would be happy to discuss availability in advance. I think pet sitting fits perfectly into my college routine because it allows me to do something I genuinely enjoy while balancing school and work. I love spending time with dogs, and I truly believe their companionship would brighten my day just as much as I hope to brighten theirs! Since I currently live in a college dorm, I only offer pet care in the owner’s home. I understand how important it is for dogs to feel safe and comfortable, especially when their owners are away. I believe keeping them in a familiar environment and maintaining their usual routine can make a big difference! I’m very respectful of each owner’s home and always make sure to follow any instructions regarding feeding, walks, playtime, and any special needs their dog may have. With my previous dog sitting and daycare experience, I know how to be patient with dogs of different personalities and help them feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away. My goal is to give owners peace of mind knowing their pets are in caring and responsible hands!
About: With over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds and temperaments, I provide a level of care that’s both attentive and genuinely personal. I was raised in a home where dogs were treated like family, and that philosophy still guides everything I do—your dog will be cared for with the same level of love, structure, and attention I give my own. I’m experienced in managing a wide range of care needs, including medication administration, specialized feeding routines, and accommodating unique behaviors or sensitivities. Whether your dog thrives on routine or needs a little extra patience and understanding, I tailor my approach to what works best for them. If you’re looking for someone reliable, communicative, and genuinely invested in your dog’s well-being, I’d love to help. I work from home, I offer a high level of availability and flexibility. I’m able to be present throughout the day, allowing for consistent supervision, frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship—something many sitters simply can’t provide. At home, I have two dogs—Remi, my Doberman, and Teddie, my doodle—my perfect yin and yang. They’re well-socialized, well-loved, and live a very active, enriched lifestyle. That same standard of care extends to every dog I welcome.
“Mia is fantastic! She’s very communicative, dependable, and goes above and beyond. She even helped us last minute with only one day’s notice during a family emergency. We’re so grateful for her and highly recommend her!”
“Jaylin and Charles took excellent care of my kitty, Todd, and kept consistent communication throughout the week! They asked about anything they were unsure of to make sure they were taking the best care possible, and they were so kind and easy to book! 100% recommend!”
About: I have lived with and been around dogs my whole life. I have experience in dog sitting and dog walking, and I am always up for helping people and especially their furry friends! I also have had four cats who were very opposite from being cuddly to being a bit aggressive. However I still love those fuzzballs deeply. Finally I had three parakeets who were very loud but so fun to have around. I am currently in Taylor’s South Carolina. I am 18 years old and currently do not have a job so I am extremely flexible with my schedule. I can really do any day of the week. I like make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. I follow all routines closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special instructions. I also give pets lots of attention, playtime, and affection so they feel relaxed and happy. If I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and always keep things clean and organized. Lastly, of course have fun with the pet and give them lots of love.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Pumpkintown is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $24 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 1,976 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Pumpkintown. 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.

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.
