About: Hello, my name is MehLayne (pronounced Mel-uh-nee) and I can not wait to take care of your fur baby! My senior chihuahua BB passed in June 2026 but she lived a happy life to age 23 🤗. I have taken care of a variety of pets since I was a young child and loved each and every one of them. The animals have ranged from a caterpillar turned butterfly, fish, a frog, cats, dogs, and even a squirrel. I would like to show that same care to your fur babies as well! This job will be my main focus so I can provide the most efficient and flexible service that I can. I am able to drive so I can get to you as soon as you need me! Looking forward to hearing from you. Thank you and God bless 🙌 ❤️ SIDE NOTE FOR MY REGULARS: If there is ever any weird pricing issues PLEASE let me know ahead of time and I will adjust or fix anything you need me to! I currently take care of a pet so I tend to all needs daily and can be active with them no matter the weather or time of day. I will play with them using all of their favorite toys and make great use of the backyard or play area/room for them and make them feel right at home.
“Jessica was an amazing cat sitter! She was very attentive to the cats; Cinnamon loved her so much. She sent pictures of our cats and left report cards after each visit. We also really appreciated her quickly informing us that we had an ant problem. Thanks to her, we were able to address the issue while we were away. Thank you!”
“I felt very comfortable leaving my Maine Coon cat, Sophie for 8 days under the care of Julie. She came daily for 30 minutes to our home to feed Sophie, clean her litter box, brush her and play with her. Julie always sent me updated pictures of Sophie and described how sweet she was. Julie truly connected with her and gave her the love and attention Sophie needed. I will definitely use her again when I go out of town and I recommend her to future clients.”
“Shannon was excellent with my 2 chihuahuas and my 1 cat while we were out of town. She took care of all their special needs and I felt very comfortable leaving them in her care. I would definitely book her again when I have to go out of town.”
“Rahael is a WONDERFUL dog sitter to my Stella! She has done drop ins for me a few times and this last one she was a Life saver for us! I was over 2500 miles away and my son called to tell me that Stella had tummy problems, he had to go to work and I needed extra help from Rachael. She stepped in without any hesitation!! She is THE BEST!!!! Thanks so much for all you do with my Stella ❤”
“Rachel is great with my cats! She is attentive, making sure she plays with them, handles administering medications and treats daily. She sends both video and pictures daily - I can tell my babies are at ease and enjoying their time with her. She checks in if she has questions. I feel very comfortable leaving my babies under her care.”
“Jessica was fantastic with my cat! She gave him lots of love and attention and sent very nice pics and updates each day. Super grateful for her friendly and thorough care!”
About: I have loved animals for as long as I can remember. I have two 13 year old dogs myself and have helped take care of them from puppy to senior. I have fostered 3 dogs and pet sit for friends. I follow all requirements like walking, feeding times, giving any necessary medication, and endless love. I am a recent college graduate and currently in my job hunt. I have open availability and am very flexible at the moment. I would love to help out in any way that I can! I’m very used to animals and what they need. I will follow all directions that I am given to make sure your pet gets the correct care. I can feed and walk your animals around the neighborhood or let them outside if there’s a fenced in backyard. For cats, I’m comfortable with cleaning out the litter box and replacing it with new litter. On top of all the necessities, I will make sure they get the love they deserve.
“Mia is fantastic! She’s very communicative, dependable, and goes above and beyond. She even helped us last minute with only one day’s notice during a family emergency. We’re so grateful for her and highly recommend her!”
“Jerry is truly one of the best to have sit your pups. He is great with our boys! They absolutely love him and are also so happy to see him! He takes them on nice long walks and gives them tons of lovin! His communication is great at all times. We’ve used him so many times before it’s great having someone we know we can trust our boys are in good hands with!”
“Elizabeth was a great sitter for our senior cat with special needs! She went above and beyond to help us make sure our sweet boy was comfortable and cared for. We’re excited to use her again in the future!”
About: I really love dogs and hope to help stay with your pets while you are away. All creatures great and small inspire me to be better. I will be unavailable to watch animals from my home while traveling. Please let me know if I can help with drop-in visits, walks or in home stay. Please let me know if you would like to schedule a visit to see if we would be a good fit before you are away. I look forward to the opportunity to meet your furbabies.
“Lee took great care of my animals, followed all directions, and stayed in close communication with me regarding the animals and any concerns. I have used before and will use again! My animals love him!”
“Erin did an excellent job and was very loving and tended to our babies with great care! She was easy to communicate with and sent the cutest pictures of our babies while we were away! She went above and beyond and followed their care plan to a t! I would strongly recommend her for my friends and family! She made our first time using this app a breeze and we are looking to book in the future as well! Overall Strongly recommend, 10/10!”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals for four years now, I began in my own neighborhood, and then ventured out to helping others in need of animal care. I love it and I am extremely flexible when it comes to caring for your pets! I currently work very early mornings at my job, which leads me to be out around noon. I am available everyday, and love snuggling, playing, and walks with any furry friend! I care for your pets in the way that best suits your needs. I typically will cater differently to everyone, some animals are older and don’t want to go on walks, some need to burn energy all day long! It’s completely up to you how your animal is cared for.
“Shelley is great! She took care of my cat, Bobo, for 4 days while I was away. She answered all of my questions, stayed for a while during the initial meet 'n greet, followed my instructions to a "T", and stayed longer so Bobo could get comfortable with her. I would not hesitate to book Shelley again. I highly recommend her services.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Simpsonville
Sarah was incredible! She took such good care of our elderly dog and two special needs cats. One of our cats, who is typically terrified and hides from anyone outside our family and takes forever to be comfortable with strangers, warmed up to her within a day or so! We will definitely use her again!
We had a wonderful experience with her! She took amazing care of Tina and kept us updated throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. Everything went perfectly, and Tina was happy and well cared for. We highly recommend her and will definitely choose her again in the future. Thank you so much!
Sierra was wonderful! Our three dogs loved her, even our older dog, who is nervous around strangers. She administered supplements to our older dog, managed our puppy's antics, and communicated with us regularly while she dropped in to take care of our dogs for a week. Thank you, Sierra! We will definitely call on your assistance to pet sit again!
Dawn is an animal lover with three dogs of her own. We had not left our 2 cats and our dog with a sitter for more than 2 days before. Dawn made us totally comfortable with great communication and timely visits. Our fur babies seemed to love her. Highly recommend!
Crystal did amazing with our girls! She was able to make fast friends with what we thought was our most anxious pup & went above and beyond to check in on our smaller pup who would run and hide. She even had no problem handling my silly requests to help make our time away easier on our girls. The daily photo & video updates were just icing on the cake! 10/10 would recommend Crystal to anyone!
I can't say enough about how helpful Kelly was. I couldn't have asked for a better person to care for our dogs. They were a little dramatic, and she rose to the occasion and went truly above and beyond. If she'll have us again, I will book over and over. I HIGHLY recommend Kelly!

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 Simpsonville 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.
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!
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Simpsonville with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
