“Ashley was wonderful and I will definitely request her next time. She was willing to be very flexible with the hours since which was very helpful to me for this sitting due to a family situation. She seemed to really care about my senior dog and didn't want to leave her alone at all, which really put my mind at ease because my old gal keeps falling and is unable to get up on her own sometimes and it breaks my heart to think she may be home alone struggling. She sent photos and updates often which gave me peace of mind while I was away.”
“This was Captain’s first time with Yolanda. She took care of him in our home for two days. Cap can be a handful because he’s reactive to dogs and cars. She did a great job of anticipating issues and redirecting his attention. Overall, Yolanda was very professional, gave us updates and photos twice a day and responded quickly whenever we tried to contact her. We’ll be happy to have her take care of him again.”
“Justin did a wonderful job caring for Queen and Isaiah! He sent daily updates and photos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. The dogs looked happy, relaxed, and completely comfortable snuggling with him—their favorite activity. We returned home to two happy pets and would gladly book Justin again. Highly recommend!”
“We feel lucky to have found Erika to take care of our pups! She sent lots of great pictures and regular updates without us even having to ask. The house was in perfect condition when we got home, and the pups reported only good things! We'd be happy to have Erika watch Brie and Pod again in the future.”
“Great and flexible dog sitter. Was able to adjust days and times as life happened and made us adjust our travel plans. Our dogs are not the easiest but they warmed to her quickly and it made for a great match.”
“Michele was wonderful as always. My dogs are very relaxed with her. She even handled a small home issue. We know our dogs are in good hands with her, they love their Aunt Michele :)”
“Madeline was AMAZING with our dog and cat. She was responsive when messaging. She kept us updated with photos and messages. We returned to a spotless house and happy pets.”
“Destinee was amazing, she took care of my two dogs for a full day, and i can confirm they were great took care, meals and walks on time, always asking how she can help, it was a great experience for me and my dogs, if i ever need someone to take care of my dogs any other day I’ll absolutely go with her with no hesitation!!”
“Alena is a blessing. She watched our pups for a long weekend. She knew exactly how to interact with our nervous pup to put her at ease and gave her enough reassurance that Arya settled quickly. We felt a 100% comfortable leaving 2 furry personalities in Alena's care! Can't wait to book her again!”
About: I love training dogs bodies and minds through exercise and mental stimulation. I’ve owned, walked and was a pet sitter for a variety of dogs. I’ve most recently owned/trained a puppy (he is now almost one). I’m currently working part-time and have a somewhat flexible schedule. Because of this, I will have plenty of time to love on and care for your pup! I am open to walking your dog on a leash, playing with it in your yard, or taking it to the local off-leash dog park.
“I highly recommend Katherine's dog sitting services. She recently took care of our dog, Peanut, and did an amazing job. Katherine was reliable, attentive, and kept us updated daily with photos and details about Peanut's routine, ensuring she was happy and well cared for. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a great dog sitter.”
“Absolutely great! My dogs are very scared when left alone over the 4th of July and they felt very secure with her there. Our cat is also a very needy boy who constantly demands whatever he wants and she handled it perfectly. She also gave a ton of pictures and gave a lot of updates. I would definitely book again!”
“Corinne was great with my three cats. Two of them are very affectionate and need a lot of love. The third is really shy. Cornnie spent a lot of time with the needy ones and had calm energy for the shy one. My shy cat actually ended up headbutting her by the end of the week and he has never done that with a sitter before! We will be booking with Cornnie again.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Simpsonville
I can’t praise this dynamic duo enough! This was my first time hiring a dog sitter, and they made the entire experience seamless. Their communication was fantastic, and they followed every instruction perfectly. To top it off, I came home to a spotless house that looked just like it did when I left. I give these ladies two enthusiastic thumbs up!
Dia provided excellent care for our pug Milly for just over a week, including overnights. She was super responsive to questions and sent daily updates and photos. She was very thoughtful about keeping the household going as well - bringing in the mail and packages, keeping the house tidy, and even unpacking a perishable package for us and putting it in the refrigerator. Highly recommend!!
Kimberly did a great job taking care of our boys. She was punctual, followed directions well, reached out with any questions and was great with communication. Our dogs were well cared for while we were away and she was very attentive to their well being. Will be booking her again!
Madison was amazing with our girls. She treated them just like I would, and she sent daily updates and pictures, knowing how much I missed them. They were so much happier when we got home than when they were boarded. They LOVED having Madison stay with them. I would highly recommend her, and we will definitely call on her again !
We feel lucky to have found Erika to take care of our pups! She sent lots of great pictures and regular updates without us even having to ask. The house was in perfect condition when we got home, and the pups reported only good things! We'd be happy to have Erika watch Brie and Pod again in the future.
Jessica spent a week taking care of our dying 80 lb dog that has to be hoisted with a harness to walk while we were at our son’s wedding. She was beyond amazing! She went to heroic lengths to keep him alive and comfortable until we could get home. She was so communicative and willing to do anything we asked. She gave us constant updates and reassurance. I can’t say enough about how wonderful she has been with our beloved Riley. She is absolutely the best person you could find to take care of your animals.
Kim was absolutely amazing. She came and spent time with our very anxious girl before the stay to make sure she was comfortable. She sent frequent updates and rarely left the house. She went above and beyond in all aspects. Can’t wait to use her services in the future
Sarah was amazing when watching our two dogs and cat while we were away on vacation. The animals were loved and well taken care of during her watch. The house was taken care of and she was very communicative and prompt with her replies. She took lots of pictures and gave the perfect amount of updates.
Came home to a tidy house and two very cuddly pets. Our dog is pretty high needs in terms of attention, and our cat is terrified of new people. We got plenty of pics and updates over the 10 days we were out, and by the end of their time together the cat was actually coming out to spend time with her and the dog, which normally would take him months of meeting a person. Cannot recommend enough, and would absolutely book again.
Absolutely great! My dogs are very scared when left alone over the 4th of July and they felt very secure with her there. Our cat is also a very needy boy who constantly demands whatever he wants and she handled it perfectly. She also gave a ton of pictures and gave a lot of updates. I would definitely book again!
Amanda and her daughter were INCREDIBLE!!! They were so attentive to our pups and gave them just as much love as we do when we’re home! I was completely at ease with them there!!! Pups were always smiling and tails wagging!! Very communicative and respectful!! Will for sure be booking her again!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Simpsonville on Rover is $61.05 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 10,478 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Simpsonville. 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 Simpsonville 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 Simpsonville 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 Simpsonville 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.
