“George fell in love with Sara. She came to meet and great a couple times for us to get to know her and for George to get to know her as well. We got up dates and pictures a couple times a day as to how George was adjusting as he has never been left alone before. To have him in his own environment with all "his" things to keep him company was great! WE left instructions for Sara as to what when and where he ate, his likes and dislikes, his likes and what not! He was such a happy boy when we got home. All thanks to Sara treating him like her own. She stayed at our home to keep him company as well which, probably made George feel much safer. Came home to a clean house, she treated it like it was her own! Very much appreciated! Thank you so much Sara! We couldn't have accomplished our trip without you!”
“I would give MB & Lindsey 10 stars if I could! They asked all the best questions, took copious notes, stayed in touch, babied my pets even more than I do, and left the house cleaner than I had. (The fact that they work from home so they could stay with my babies all day didn't hurt either!) I would very much recommend them to anyone who wants attentive, kind, professional, and truly competent pet sitters!”
“Sesaria is amazing with our three dogs. We have used her twice now for house sitting and will continue to use her again. She is great about sending updates with pictures. When we come home our puppies are happy, well taken care of, and the house looks like it did when we left.”
“Christopher was amazing to have as a house and pet sitter. He kept me up to date on the happenings of my two stubborn dogs and the crazy cat with photos. And when he left the house he left it the way he found it. would highly recommended for pet and house sitting needs and will be using him in the future.”
“Julie was absolutely amazing with my pup Meadow! This was my first time using Rover so I was nervous about leaving my anxious pup, but Julie was very reassuring and super sweet. Meadow loved her and had such a great time being taken care of while I was away. Julie sent photos very often and always kept me updated. I was able to enjoy my trip care free knowing my pup was in great hand. Would 100% book again!”
“Crystal was great! She followed all instructions and provided updates and pictures of our 3 fur babies regularly. It’s nice to be able to relax on vacation knowing your pets are being cared for by a professional.”
“Mikayla did an awesome job watching our dog Kaya! She communicated frequently while house sitting. I received several pictures each day! Absolutely recommend Mikayla and will use her again!”
“Jessie was amazing. She took such great care of all 3 of our dogs and sent updates/pictures every time she went over to care for our dogs. We will absolutely be using her again!”
“Mehlayne made herself available last minute to take care of our little Lupo. She was punctual, kind, respectful, and communicative while we were away. She followed all of our care instructions etc. etc. It is obvious that Lupo was restless while we were gone (because he’s passed out now) but Mehlayne said she tried very hard to make Lupo comfortable. We would certainly consider hiring her in the future.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Jerry! He was reliable, caring, and kept us updated with messages and photos while we were away. It gave us great peace of mind knowing our dog oso was in such good goods.”
“While house sitting with our Bluetick Ted noticed a leak coming from an outdoor pump to our pool. He notified me and then helped coordinate with our repair man to get it fixed within hours. If it wasn’t for Ted we would have come home to an empty pool and a burned out pump. He is now earned the title of SUPER TED!!!”
“Bella is absolutely wonderful! My dog and I are so very grateful for her! She always makes sure that King has his daily dose of snuggles and feels loved while I’m gone. She’s always communicative, reliable, and responsible. It’s such a relief to have someone that I can trust to stay in my home with King while I’m away and know that he’s happy and well cared for.”
“Shannon is great! We felt very comfortable leaving our dogs (one with high anxiety) with her. Both dogs are large and high energy. She has a calming presence and clearly is comfortable around dogs. We will definitely use her again and highly recommend her!”
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.
“Daniela was very friendly and communicative, and took fantastic care of our dogs. She’s asks questions proactively and goes the extra mile to ensure she’s prepared for any emergency that might be thrown her way. 10/10”
““Sunny” was such an incredible dog sitter. She was so attentive to each of our dogs needs. Skilled, intelligent, intuitive, and just very caring. She made it so easy for us to have an stress-free vacation, knowing our fur babies were in good hands.”
“Katherine was available on short notice, and very accommodating. She took good care of my three great Danes and they seemed very comfortable with her. I will surely call on her services again! Thank you Katherine!”

Sarah is an absolutely amazing sitter! She took wonderful care of my entire little zoo and handled everyone’s different needs perfectly. I felt completely at ease knowing my pets were in such caring and capable hands. I would 100% book her again and highly recommend her! 🐾❤️
Hannah was very patient and understanding while I was trying to figure out my ever-changing trip's plans and was super flexible. She's great at communication and followed directions perfectly. One of my dog's has bad anxiety but he felt comfortable around her after a short time of her spending time with him. She made sure both pups were comfortable! I'll definitely rely on Hannah to be my petsitter in the future!!
Noreen was perfect! She did exactly as i asked for our sweet Zoey. It is very hard for us to leave her. But Noreen gave her lots of attention and comfort just as i asked. She was very respectful and clean in my home. I plan to use her going forward for our sweet Zoey. She sent me lots of pics & updates. Loved her!
Jenna went above and beyond to make sure our dogs were happy and taken care of while we were away! She's great at communicating and sent plenty of pictures to keep us updated! We absolutely loved having her watch our fur babies, and would 100% rebook with her for future travels!! Thank you Jenna!!!!
I’m so happy we found Nancy !!! Our two rescues, Dash and Dottie seemed happy to see her even after meeting Nancy one time. She sent pictures to us during the day and was lying on the rug giving them love in their beds and we could tell they both were comfortable staying with her. It makes it possible for us to get away now, not just an hour or two, but a whole day feeling completely confident our fur babys are in good hands. Can’t thank Nancy enough for staying at our home with our two (kids) ❣️🥰🐶🐶

FAQs for House Sitting - Simpsonville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Simpsonville on Rover is $43.03 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 1,018 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.

- 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.
