“Katie is fantastic and incredibly trustworthy. She took such good care of our furbabies and our home. She guides with so much patience and love. We are so happy we found her.”
“Antonio was great with our nervous/reactive dog, Waylo, and knew not to push to create a relationship. Both Penny and Waylo were in great care, and updates were provided regularly. We felt confident that our dogs were in good hands. We definitely recommend Antonio, and would gladly use his services again.”
About: My name is Conner and I’m a college student at Winthrop University and a lifelong animal lover! caring for animals has always been a big part of my life, whether that meant helping my mom rescue and care for stray cats or looking after family pets over the years. More recently, I’ve been helping take care of my girlfriend’s dog, who has an autoimmune disease and requires extra attention, patience, and consistency with medications and daily routines. I’m a firm believer that every pet deserves personalized care and should be treated with as much love as I would give my own. Whether your pet needs a walk to burn off some energy, a drop-in-visit while you're away, or someone dependable to keep them company in the comfort of their own home, in your guy!! I’m currently a full time college student so I’m free all summer and I would be very flexible around my school schedule in the Fall and Spring! I am very confident in my ability to make friends with every pet! I’m very active and love a nice long walk but I’m also happy to chill on the couch or floor if you have a more laid back pet!
“If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. Christi was absolutely amazing, giving the best updates and perfectly managing every detail. She created ease for us in ways that went above and beyond pet care, but we also felt confident that our fur baby was treated like a princess. We are so grateful for her level of care and highly recommend!”
About: I’ve worked with dogs and cats alike for my whole life. My primary experience is with fostering rescued animals (mainly pit bull and bully breeds who were victims of abuse or neglect). I have lived with three dogs and one cat throughout my life, and am very accustomed to caring for both! I am currently working part-time, so I will have plenty of time to visit and care for your pets! My nights are flexible, so I will be available for house sitting and overnight pet sitting. I have cared for animals my entire life, so your pets safety is my number one priority! Depending upon the service, I will do whatever I can to ensure your pet’s comfort and care.
About: I have grown up around all kinds of animals and take pride in caring for them! I have lots of local experience taking care of pets, and I am even versed in exotic pet care! I love getting to know new animals and having the responsibility of caring for them! I am currently a full time chemical engineering student but I take all of my classes online! I have a wide range of availability and my schedule if very flexible! I can easily monitor your pet and keep them safe. I am experianced using leashes for dogs and making sure dogs/cats cannot get to anything that could harm them!
“Kalie did an amazing job watch my small dog and two cats for a long weekend. She stayed over at my house so my pets were kept in their same routine. I loved all the pictures and updates she sent. She left the house so clean when I came home and my babies were so relaxed. I will absolutely use her again! Cannot recommend her enough!”
“India watched our pup in our home for the second time and was absolutely fantastic. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of our pup while we were out of town.”
About: I have had animals all my life, dogs, cats, rodents, and birds. I'm experienced with younger and older animals as well as giving medicines and other. I'm currently a college student and don't work so I have plenty of time to play with pups / kitties and come by for feedings and other. When pet sitting I typically will go by 2 to 3 times a day for feeding and play. I'm always careful around animals especially when they don't know me, I know some can take some time to warm up! I can do walks, play in house, or a backyard if allowed, and other general care.
“Dai Yah, was prompt with her response when we urgently needed a last minute same-day booking request in order to go out to an activity and then dinner with family. Were extremely mindful and careful when looking over sitters profiles and this is the 4th time we have booked a house sitting request via Rover app and it was a pleasure to work with DaI Yah. If you’re interested in booking a sitter that has such a pleasant vibe like super chill and easy to follow care instructions for my little 5lb Shih-Poo then schedule with DaI Yah, we will be booking again many more times for DaI Yah, I already mentioned to her that were interested in a repeat sitter so Blaze has a pleasant experience each time we need house sitting care. Dai Yah, and I spoke with each other college and family and goals so it was a great having the brief conversation to try to build that sitter-pet parent connection.”
“If I could give Richard more than five stars, I would. Leaving our beloved Oliver and Stella for a week while we traveled to Colorado was much easier because of Richard. He was incredibly kind, patient, and thoughtful, but what really stood out was his communication. He kept us updated on everything, from eating habits and supplements to potty breaks and sleeping arrangements. We never had to wonder how they were doing because Richard always let us know. He paid attention to details that mattered and genuinely cared about their safety. When the weather was extremely hot, he adjusted their routine accordingly and made sure they stayed comfortable rather than risking walks in unsafe temperatures. It was also clear that Oliver and Stella adored him. They cuddled with him, sat on his lap, and settled in beautifully. Those little updates meant the world to us and showed just how much love and attention they were receiving. Richard is exactly the kind of person you hope to find when trusting someone with your pets: caring, responsible, attentive, and genuinely invested in their happiness. We would absolutely book with him again and honestly hope he becomes our permanent sitter whenever we're away. Oliver and Stella give him two paws way up!”
“Justin has always been the best dog sitter for my baby! he keeps the house so clean, takes care of my dog like his own, and sends amazing photos!! I highly recommend him :)”
“Mara was wonderful with our Goldendoodle. She was very kind and energetic and matched our dogs enthusiasm for play. We could tell right away her love and care for our pet was just like her own.”

Kayla was absolutely amazing with Ninja! She always made sure he received the best care and regularly sent me updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. Ninja felt comfortable, safe, and loved with her. She is truly the best, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and dependable pet sitter!
Haley watched Benji for 4 nights and we are so grateful to the communication she gave us as this was the first time leaving him with someone that was not family. It was clear she cared for Benji as if he was her own and was even comfortable dealing with his reactive behaviors which all reactive dog owners know is important. We will definitely use Haley again!
When I have to travel and leave my babies I am comfortable leaving them with Greg. He is patient, loving, caring with them, plays with them and takes them for walks daily. He provides updates daily, sends pics and videos. Deff recommend him and super happy I found him.
Shanea was absolutely wonderful with both our dogs while we were away for over a week and a half. The love and care she provided our dogs and home was outstanding! If we could give a higher rating we would! Our home was left exactly the way we left and our dogs were very well taken care of! From the bottom Of our hearts we are so lucky to have found her! Thank you!
Antonio was awesome! He came on super short notice and immediately put us at ease with his calm demeanor. He asked all the right questions to ensure that he was giving our animals the best care possible. We received timely updates and pictures of our babies. Highly recommend, and we plan to rebook the next time we are out of town!

FAQs for House Sitting - Rock Hill
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Rock Hill on Rover is $66.6 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 2,422 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Rock Hill. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Rock Hill walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Rock Hill maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Rock Hill choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
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.

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.
