“They were very welcoming people and Cody truly felt at home when he arrived. The pictures frequently eased our minds. I love the extra yard space for my dog to play. Thank you so much”
“A wonderful environment for my pup to enjoy! The family was so sweet and the house has an expansive yard to explore. I felt comfortable leaving my pup, knowing that he would be in good hands in a loving home. Thanks so much!!”
“Thank you again, Kristin! I highly recommend her, not only because of the wonderful care she gave my dog, but also because she accepted a last minute booking without hesitation. She kept us updated the entire time and followed up throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. Simon was very happy, and so were we. We would definitely book with her again!”
“John and Alexis were excellent Rover hosts. They were very responsive and communicative both before and during Maddie’s stay with them, and they took lots of pictures of her. Maddie was happy when we went to pick her up. We appreciate their willingness to take Maddie in as we were in town for a few days and live in another state.”
“Ashley and her family were awesome again. Our dogs were happy and tired when we picked them up. Ashley had great communication and was so friendly when our travels got a little delayed and was able to accommodate us.”
“Manik and his wife were amazing, everything was excellent great communication and we could tell Blu enjoyed his stay. Manik sent videos and pictures interacting outside with Blu reassuring us that he wasn’t locked in a room or kennel all day, that was my biggest concern from past Rover sitters. I would highly recommend this family and definitely book again .”

About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve been a proud dog dad since 2023 to Lara, my playful and loving Pitbull mix. She absolutely loves having other dogs around, and I enjoy welcoming friendly pups into our home so they can have some company and playtime. I’m very active and take Lara on at least two walks every day, so I’m happy to keep your pup active and engaged as well. I’m attentive to each dog’s personality and routine, and I’ll treat your pup with the same care and attention I give Lara. My routine revolves around making sure Lara gets plenty of exercise, attention, and time outside. 🐶 I take her for a morning walk before work and another walk after I get home, usually before dinner. During the day, she has access to a climate-controlled indoor space and our fenced yard through a dog door, so she can choose between relaxing inside or spending time outside. 🌳 Evenings are spent relaxing together at home, and I follow a consistent routine to help her feel comfortable and settled. I have a secure fenced yard with plenty of space, trees, and shade, as well as a dog door that allows dogs to move safely between the yard and climate-controlled indoor space. 🌳🐾 I can crate dogs when needed and will follow their normal routines. I also have two cats, but they are completely separated from the dogs by a secure gate, so dogs that are not comfortable around cats can be safely accommodated. 🐱🐶 Safety, comfort, and making sure every pet feels at home are my priorities.
About: Not just have I grown up around animals of all kinds but I have taken care of several friends and families pets to ensure their well being while the owners were away. I currently am not limited to hours to come to care of your furry babies! I’m willing to work around most people’s needs within almost any hours!. I prefer to be able to go to your house to provide any care you’re seeing fit. Such as visiting your pet/animals keeping them active with play time, keep them outside as much as possible for exercise/potty time. I can make sure they are fed/watered. Just providing that time they need to get through the time you’re away.
“Tanya and her husband are true animal lovers. They took in our energetic adolescent Aussiedoodle for 1 week, and at the end of our trip, he was happy, healthy, clean, and loving. He can be quiet the handful, and they supported him with love and grace. I’m very grateful, and highly recommend Tanya.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is how much I truly care about each pet’s comfort and happiness. I’ve grown up around animals my whole life and have experience caring for both energetic puppies and older dogs who need a little extra patience. I’m really good at reading pets’ moods and making sure they feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I’m also very reliable and take my responsibilities seriously, I always make sure pets stick to their routines, get plenty of playtime, and have clean water and food. Whether it’s going on walks, or just spending time cuddling, I treat every pet like my own. I am currently available all day on the weekends and Thursday anytime after 5:00pm. I will have the most time on those days to provide and care for your dog. When I care for pets, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved the whole time. At my home, I have a fenced backyard where dogs can play and get plenty of exercise. There’s also a dog park right in my neighborhood, so with permission, I love taking pets there for walks, playtime, and socializing. My house has lots of open space, so there’s room for pets to relax, stretch out, and feel at home. always keep water and food fresh, stick to each pet’s usual schedule, and make sure they get the attention they’re used to—whether that’s playtime, cuddles, or quiet time. Safety is my top priority, and I always make sure gates are closed, leashes are secure, and pets are never left unsupervised.

“Tara was a lifesaver!! we were staying at the Andell Inn on Kiawah Island, and we’re planning on attending an all day event the next day. We did not want the dogs to be stuck in the hotel room, possibly getting into trouble for barking, so I began looking for a pet sitter who could take them in their home. We found Tara who is a godsend. Tara drove to the Andell and pick them up in the morning and then return them at night. Of course there was a travel fee, but that was not a problem for me considering she lives 45 minutes away and was willing to do it in the timeframe that we needed it. The girls were well taken care of we receive pictures throughout the day and I think one of our dogs may have even bonded with one of her kids. ? If you’re considering Tara as a caregiver for your pets, I highly recommend her!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Ritter home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Ritter.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Ritter sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in SC ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
