“Alyssa's fabulous! She was incredibly communicative and my dog absolutely adored her. She was incredibly accommodating when I had to book last minute for a work trip and was willing to schedule an extra meat and greet with me the night before I left so that I could make sure that my dog was happy and comfortable. She was great to work with and I felt so much better having checking in on my critters”
“Janae was great, she checked in on our cats for a couple days while we were out of town. We did an initial visit before the booking just to meet her and see how our cats reacted, they instantly took to her which was a relief. She also very kindly pulled in our trash bins while we were away, we did not expect that but very much appreciated! We would definitely book with Janae again.”
About: I have been a lifelong lover of all animals in every shape, size, and species! I grew up with a dog and cat and now I have my own dog and 3 cats! I did long term pet sitting for two years while in college and now I’m ready to return full time! Animals have always been my passion in life so I cannot wait to meet yours! I also previously worked in a vet clinic so I now have knowledge in animal handling, grooming, administrating medication, and a basic understanding of common pet issues/illnesses. Fitness is also a passion of mine so I would love to take your pets on fun, long walks around the area! I am also a portrait photographer on the side so you are guaranteed to get good photos of your beautiful fur babies! My own dog, Mateo, has always been a spirited pup to say the least! With that I have gained some knowledge with basic dog training. Have a puller on your walks? I can help with it! Need some help with basic commands for a feisty puppy? I got you covered! My goal now is to solely focus on providing pet care and start building my photography business! I am available anytime Monday-Friday but also open to weekends. I love a good schedule so I would absolutely love to have reoccurring clients! I absolutely care for your pets as if they were my own. I know how hard it can be to have to leave your precious babies in someone else’s care but I promise to update you every step of the way! From when I arrive to your home, during the visit, and when I am leaving your home. If you have any questions during the visit I will be able to answer you right away! My top priority is not only your pet but also making sure you feel comfortable every step of the way.
“We had a wonderful experience! She came twice a day to let our dogs out while we were away and went above and beyond what we expected. She was reliable, attentive, and took great care of our dogs and cats. She even cleaned up after them when they made messes in the house, which we really appreciated. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in good hands while we were gone. We would absolutely recommend her and would definitely book with her again!”
About: Hi my name is Audrey, I am a current nursing student at the University of Louisville. I have experience taking care of people, dogs and cats; as I myself have an Australian shepherd, a bulldog and a calico. I enjoy taking care of all animals and treat them as they are my own, as pets have always been a part of my life growing up as well as currently. I’m currently a full-time student, I have availability in the afternoon/evening Mon-Thurs for walks and drop-ins and all day availability Fri-Sun for overnights, drop-ins and walks. During summer/school breaks my availability will be completely open for morning-evening bookings. I prioritize safety and comfort for every pet I care for. I am experienced with both crate-trained and non–crate-trained pets and can adapt to your pet’s routine/needs. If possible I would love to have a meet-and-greet beforehand to ensure a good fit and a safe positive experience for you, your pet, and myself. During walks, pets will remain securely leashed at all times. I monitor behavior, surroundings, and any potential risks to keep your pet safe.
About: I’ve loved animals since I was a kid. My partner Jacob and I have 3 yorkies, a cat, a mini pig, and hedgehogs. We have experience with reptiles and arachnids as well. We love all critters, no matter the species! Our home is quite large, with space to give shy animals some quiet time if need be, but we also have no qualms with sharing our beds or couches if your pets want to snuggle up. Our yard is fully fenced, and our animals are always monitored when outdoors. Rest assured, we will treat your babies like our own! I work from home, and have the luxury of creating my own schedule on a daily basis. As such, I’m able to spend as much time as I need to with your babies. My large backyard is fully fenced. Outdoor time is always monitored personally, even if it’s raining. We have three yorkies in our home, and a mini pig who stays outside (except during the winter). We allow animals on our furniture, if they want to join us, or they can lounge where they’re comfortable. We have enough space to keep animals separated in different rooms if the client requests it.
“Lauren & Joseph took great care of our GSD russ while we were out on vacation! Photos of every drop-in were provided and communication was excellent. They went above and beyond by cleaning up after our dog in his backyard area!! Would definitely suggest going with them if you’re looking for exceptional care and will definitely be using them in the future!!”
“She did go above and beyond at doing drop in with my dog it was her first time I left her with someone she dint know and my dog was not happy the first few drops she did but did keep coming back till my dog decided to warm up to her at least enough to go on a walk”
About: I have grown up with all types of animals my whole life. I have a deep love and connection with animals. I have one cat right now and I care for a friends giant Schnauzer as needed. I am able to feed your babies and take them for walks or just some fun play time . I work Monday through Thursday 6am-430pm I am available after work and on the weekends. I can do overnight at your home or just come for feeding or walks. I do work in Louisville and I’m there a lot so the distance is no problem. I can have animals overnight at my place but only on the weekends Thursday evening to Sunday evening . My cat has 3 towers for play and many other toys. I clean her box 3/4 times a week, and check food and water daily.
About: I am a pet owner myself. I have a 2 year old puppy, great pyrenees and mount bernese mix, Willow. We adopted her at 8 weeks old and have been happy ever since. I’m currently working part time at a local grocery store. I’m free in the evenings Monday-Wednesdays, available all day Thursdays and Fridays. Available late afternoon Saturdays and Sundays. I’ll follow any instruction that is needed to take care of your pet. I can give baths, play with your pet in the backyard, and I will clean any mess your pet makes. If your animal needs a brush, I don’t mind brushing them. I can give your dog walks around the neighborhood.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with years of experience caring for dogs with very different breeds, personalities, energy levels, ages, and needs. I’ve grown up around pit bulls and retrievers and am currently a proud Chiweenie owner. One thing I’ve learned from caring for dogs is that understanding their behavior is just as important as feeding them and taking them for walks. I’ve had experience recognizing when a dog is frightened or overstimulated and giving them the space and reassurance they need. For example, when my childhood dog became overwhelmed after a stressful interaction, I took him somewhere quiet so he could calm down. During thunderstorms and fireworks, when he would tremble with fear, I would bring him somewhere comfortable and stay with him until he settled. I’m also the person at family gatherings who naturally ends up keeping an eye on the dogs—making sure they’re getting enough exercise and attention while also making sure younger kids give them appropriate space and treat them respectfully. I’m comfortable with walks, playtime, bathing, and overnight care. I enjoy both tiring out an energetic dog and providing a calm presence for a nervous one. I’ve also cared for cats and generally find that they warm up to me pretty quickly. Most importantly, I will enjoy taking the time to learn your pet’s individual personality, routines, and boundaries. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they’re with me. I am available throughout the day. I wake up early and care for my own dog before 8 AM every day. I can come by whenever is needed or stick around if that is preferred! I start by taking any instruction from you to heart regarding your pet's personality and habits. Outside of that, I generally would like to start by having a joint meeting between me, your furry friend, and their best friend: you! That way, they can establish a level of trust for when I come by on my own. I follow the routine that you would like me to follow while remaining alert to your pet in the present, just like with my own pup.
“Brittney is extremely communicative about your pet, takes lots of pictures and keeps you up to date on what happened while she was there. You can tell she is an animal lover and cares about your pet like they are her own.”
About: I ran my mother’s pet care business for 2 years and am now working independently. I can easily build rapport and trust with any pet, and can handle all sizes and temperaments. Currently working Monday through Saturday from 6am to 7pm. This is my only job at the moment so my availability is wide open and I will accept same day bookings. I build trust and respect with any pet I encounter. I’ll ensure everyone’s care needs are met, and give your pets plenty of love and attention to hold them over until they see you next.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Simpsonville is $23 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $33 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 1,175 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Simpsonville. 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Simpsonville. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
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.
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.
