“Jared was awesome and my 9 month kitten felt comfortable with him. He seems to be a natural with animals and I felt that Gonzo was in good hands. Jared also stayed in good communication with me and sent plenty of pictures at each check in. I would highly recommend Jared and will use him again next time I have to take a trip!”
“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!”

About: I have lived in the Carolina for 10+ years. Originally from Chicago, I grew up on the west coast of Florida. I have a passion for arts, photography and design. My true joy is time spent with animals. I have been around animals all my life and a huge animal lover. Friends and family have always allowed me into their homes to take care of their pets while away. I am available all week to visit, walk, sit, feed, and/or play with your all fur babies. I am a morning person, up early ready to motivate with activities. I have only cared for pet in the client's homes. I am willing to stay overnight at the home if the client really needs that service.
About: Room to run, a buddy to play with A warm welcome & a secure fenced yard Attentive care for your playful pup **We have a 6 yo male GSP (not neutered) at home I’m home throughout the day and work from home part-time, so I have flexibility for walks, playtime, potty breaks, and regular check-ins. Dogs staying with me should be comfortable spending short periods independently in our secure, fully fenced backyard while I’m occupied indoors. My home has a large, secure, fully fenced backyard and a friendly, active 6-year-old German Shorthaired Pointer. Before hosting, I like to arrange a meet-and-greet to make sure our dogs are comfortable together and learn about your dog’s routine, temperament, and needs. Dogs may spend short periods in the yard without direct supervision while I’m indoors, so we’ll discuss whether that’s a good fit for your pup. For walks and visits in your home, I’ll follow your care instructions, use a securely fitted leash and harness or collar, and double-check doors and gates. I’m happy to provide photos and updates so you know how your pet is doing!
About: I had 3 different Lab Retrievers from pups to their senior years in my early teens to late 20s. I have a 2 yr old German Shepherd now. I work from home so he gets plenty of love and attention. As your dog stays with me they will get the same level of care as my 4 legged family members. Update: Due to my fiancé having some allergy issues lately I will only take hypoallergenic dogs that minimally shed. I'm sorry for the amount of dogs I will have to reject. We start everyday with his favorite fetch games to get some energy out. Once he calms down he gets breakfast, a short walk, then a long nap on one of his many beds around the house or a doormat. During each day he gets more fetch, structured play, and training, all followed by short naps. Update: Due to my fiancé having some allergy issues lately I will only take hypoallergenic dogs that minimally shed. I'm sorry for the amount of dogs I will have to reject. I have a small fenced in yard with plenty of fields for play and sidewalks to walk around my house. My dog's days are structured to keep him happy and healthy. I make sure his meals are scheduled so he isn't at risk for bloat (GDV).
“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.”

About: Since having my first dog for a pet, in 1982 -- and cherishing borrowed time with five more canines each taking their turn as MVPs and forever memorialized in my family's hall of fame, through 2023 -- I have been convinced that dogs possess an unconditional dedication and friendship that almost no person on Earth can match. Dog walking has been a way of life, and an ultimate pastime, by my wife and me taking favorite routes and paths in an array of places. Clipping our dogs' nails, and brushing their teeth, also have been regular duties I embrace for them. Our pet family also includes a gray cockatiel who joined us in 2013, and three 5.5-gallon aquariums: one with three tetras, and two others each with a dwarf gourami, who each come to the front of the tank when we talk aloud to say hello. Another pastime of mine has entailed horseback riding, for the past 20 years, and since 2017, lessons in the saddle on draft horses -- where I do some of my best reflection. Retired from nearly a quarter-century as a writer and editor in the daily newspaper industry -- and having met and interviewed so many special people -- each of whom taught me something about the way of the world -- I have plenty of part-time availability to provide TLC daily. Every dog is more than a pet, but a family member, with his or her own special personality. Like people, no two are alike -- and meeting every dog -- an apple in someone's eye -- is an honor. Following every client's direction to a T is the only formula I follow. Each dog has different needs and timing, and I fully respect that. Having worked part time in security across a city convention center and in maintaining private, HOA community swimming pools, my radar never dims, either, on keeping an eagle eye on all premises.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Simpsonville
Holly did a great job caring for my 5 kitties! Sometimes when we get home they seem a little stressed, but they weren't after being in Holly's care. One of the kitties broke a vase and Holly swept up the peices. She did a great job and we will recommend her to anyone!
Christine was very quick with communication and easy to schedule with for an initial meet and greet. I could tell she clearly cared about my animals during this initial visit. I have one dog who is especially shy of new people and Christine was very patient with her and let my shy dog come to her at her own terms and was advocating for another meet and greet to make sure my shy dog was comfortable with her before a longer booking.
Maddie was very friendly and easy to work with on scheduling meet and greets before a longer extended stay. All of my animals (2 dogs and 2 cats) became quick friends with her on their first meet and greet. One of my dogs is especially shy of new people, but Maddie sat on the floor to be more on her level and just showed affection to my other critters which gave my shy dog the confidence she needed to realize that Maddie wasn't someone she needed to be scared of.
Stacie was absolutely amazing!! She took such great care of our two cats while we were on vacation for a week. It was so nice not having to worry while on vacation because I knew they were in great hands. You can really tell Stacie loves all animals. I highly recommend her, and we will definitely be booking with her again in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Simpsonville is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 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 1,754 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:
- 91% 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.
