“I went looking for a Rover sitter very early in the morning and she had already updated when she was available. That alone convinced me to book her. The meet and greet went well and I knew that she would take great care of my babies. She is simply the best. My "vampire kitty" looked well cared for in the pictures she sent me. Next time I need a sitter, Mya will be my choice.”
About: I've spent years caring for animals with a variety of personalities, ages, and needs. Living with a Great Dane has made me very comfortable handling large and giant breeds, and caring for my Labrador through her 17th year gave me plenty of experience with the extra patience and attention senior dogs need. I'm also experienced in administering insulin injections and following medication schedules for pets with medical needs. No matter your animal’s age, size, or routine, I'll make sure they receive attentive, compassionate care and feel right at home while you're away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I have a flexible schedule that allows me to make time for the pets in my care. I typically finish work by 3 PM, and I also have two days each week where I work from home, giving me extra availability and flexibility throughout the day. When needed, I can also use my lunch break to check in on your pets and make sure they’re doing well. I’m available for evening and weekend care as well, allowing me to provide consistent attention, companionship, and support for your pet’s daily routine. I provide pet care in my client’s home, where I can help pets feel comfortable by keeping their familiar routines and surroundings. I understand that every pet has their own needs, so I focus on providing attentive, reliable care that includes feeding, playtime, walks, medication needs, and plenty of companionship. I’m available for weekday visits, evenings, and weekends, and I also offer daily walks and evening walks to help keep pets happy, active, and well cared for while their owners are away.
About: I have owned and cared for both dogs and cats all my life. I have a years experience as a kennel tech handling reactive dogs for work and 3 years working with my own. Im very familiar with multiple training methods. I work part time on James Island. Available for afternoon walks and check ins, and on my days off, house sitting given enough notice beforehand. I can handle couch potatoes and working breeds. Ill provide the care best suited to them, whether that be a potty break or full on agility training session. When it comes to their needs or prerequisites, your wish is my command.
About: *PLEASE READ* Transparency is important to me, so I want pet parents to know I work full-time in Mount Pleasant during the weekdays (7:30 AM–4:00 PM). Because of my commute from Summerville, I’m unable to leave work early before 4:00 PM. This schedule works best for pets comfortable during the workday, and I’m fully available for evenings, nights, and weekends.. Communication is very important to me — I provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins so you always know your pet is safe and cared for. My goal is for both pets and owners to feel completely comfortable and confident while they’re apart. I can do drop in before 630 am and anytime after 4 pm Caring for pets fits naturally into my day because spending time with animals is something I truly love.” Dogs are my peace and relaxing time. “Reliable, loving care for your pet, with routines, exercise, and plenty of attention. “Your pet’s happiness and safety is my top priority." Happy babies.
“Mary Kay was wonderful with my service dog Sunshine and his many “rules.” She was personable and kind, and he took to her instantly. I will definitely be having her back with Sunshine soon!”
“Jennifer was very kind to Dallas and was patient even when he didn’t want to go back in the crate. She sent regular updates and was very good in dealing with his anxiety. 10/10”
“Chey was perfect for our pups and our needs. She is always on time and has great communication with pictures and videos to make you feel comfortable while you're away. If you need to reach out to her, she responds very quickly. We had to replace our pet sitter and it was nerve-wracking until we hired Chey, she is the perfect fit to our family and we will definitely be hiring her for future travel and getaways.”
“Amy has been such a pleasure to work with and help Sadie transition to our new work life. Amy keeps me updated on Sadie’s day and keeps my stress level low on worrying about how Sadie is doing. I highly recommend Amy! I’d give her more than 5 stars if it was possible.”
“So pleased. Came back to find my dogs happier than ever to see me, but they were calm and relaxed. I will use Dawn again. What a good feeling to have a caring person watch your pets in their own home. Loved the picture updates!”
“Alyson was a huge help and jumped right in on short notice. She’s very communicative and responsive. Saluda really enjoyed playing with her! Would definitely recommend her to anyone!”
“This was the first time we had Gillian take care of our dogs and she did a great job. The dogs were fed and medicated on time and played with, which is very important as one of our dogs has severe separation anxiety.”
About: I have been pet sitting for as long as I can remember. Growing up I would watch my neighbors pets anytime they were out of town. Over the years I have gotten to meet so many people + their adorable pets and it truly is so much fun! I love being able to help you and meet a new furry friend. I will love your pet like they are my own! I will be their buddy while you are away. You can trust me and not feel worried leaving your loved one at home. I am a college student so my schedule is busy, however I can work around it and still be there for your pet! You and your pet are important to me. I will do what I am asked! If you have specific instructions I would love to know so I can serve you and your pet best!
About: I’ve been surrounded by various dog breeds and ages my entire life and learned to love senior dogs as my childhood dog grew older. I have experience with infant puppies to the late stages in life. I love to spend time with other people’s dogs because I 1) enjoy helping other people out but 2) can’t have a dog of my own right now and need somewhere to give all my love!!! I see clients throughout the week at various times, usually virtually, so my availability is pretty open! Fridays work a little differently, but I will also make sure to update you on that! I am free for check-ins, but also LOVE sitting at home with the dogs when I can - especially since I can use remote platforms! I will mostly stay overnight for people in their homes and take care of their dogs + give lots of snuggles while families are on vacation. I will feed the dogs, give them medications if needed, make sure water is kept clean and full, play in the yard (if available), take on walks, snuggles, etc :)
About: Hi! I’m a local Summerville artist and pottery instructor who absolutely loves dogs! I’ve always found so much comfort and joy in their companionship, and I know how important it is to feel confident that your pets are happy and well cared for while you’re away. I provide attentive, loving care tailored to each dog’s individual needs and personality. My goal is to make every pup feel safe, seen, heard, and cared for—just like they’re at home with you! I’m currently working part-time as a pottery instructor, so I have flexible availability in the mornings. I am available all day Mondays and anytime before 1pm Tuesdays through Thursdays! I love spending time outdoors and would be happy to give your pup some exercise, attention, and companionship while you’re away. I currently live with three dogs and two cats, so I’m very comfortable caring for a variety of pets! Our dogs have plenty of room to run and play outside, but they especially love taking strolls around the neighborhood. We have two small dogs and one large dog, so I’m used to adjusting walks and activities to each dog’s individual needs—including accommodating those little legs when they need a shorter stroll! I love making sure every pet gets the exercise, attention, and care that’s right for them.

About: I am incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and flexible. I wish I could have a dog of my own, but due to where I'm currently living my landlord doesn't allow dogs. I have grown up with a dog and it is hard not having one around. My childhood dog was Bruno who was a Boston Terrier. When he passed away it was devastating, but we had the opportunity to adopt Gizmo who was Pug and lived with me up until the middle of high school. After Gizmo passed away, we adopted Odie who was another Boston Terrier. We rescued him from California, and he brought so much love and joy. Years later due to his health issues and age, he eventually went to doggy heaven. I love having the opportunity through Rover to be around dogs. All instructions you leave for me will be followed with the utmost care to keep your fur buddy happy! My schedule is flexible when it comes to fitting pet care into my daily/weekly routine. I can accommodate to make sure the pets routines are consistent with having a similar schedule in place. During the meet and greet is when I like to find more about the pet, when they are to be fed, bathroom breaks, playtime, exercise, and sleep. It is important to have a schedule in place, so nothing is forgotten about and helps to keep everything structured. Whether the service being drop-in visits, or dog walking. I will be transparent, always verifying with the client's first, and asking for all necessary information. For example, care instructions, owner contact information, and emergency contact information for every stay.

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 Ridgeville 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.
