“Laura stayed with our 5 year old sheepadoodle, Skyler, who we brought with us on a wedding vacation in the mountains. Since the home was unfamiliar to our pup, we didn’t want her staying by herself while we attended wedding events. Laura was very responsive, on time, and took great care of our girl and the home while we were away. We are so thankful we got to bring Sky on our trip and still got to attend wedding events.”

About: I’ve always had a love for animals and enjoy spending time caring for them. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your dog. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just giving extra love and attention, I’ll make sure your pets feel safe, happy, and cared for! I am an NGU student at the moment but I have late starts to my classes and I am done by 1pm every day, except Wednesday I have a late lab until 5:20. I’m free anytime after that. I treat every pet like they’re my own! Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow their normal routines, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, and playtime.
“Kathryn was so great with our pups! She understands dog baby language, is very consistent and detailed in updates, and was so flexible when a storm hit our area while she was watching our dogs.”

About: I’ve grown up with high energy Aussies since I was a kid. From the moment I moved to a pet friendly home and schedule I started on the Aussie pack I have now. I have trained two dogs from puppies and rescued two from unfortunate situations. Therefore, I understand and can assist in potty and leash training, socialization, or a good old fashioned game of fetch. I’ve always loved working with dogs and seeing the joy they get from just being with you. In college I often volunteered with animal shelters to assist in socializing dogs. While I was active duty military I relied on my dog sitter to ensure my pups were getting all of their energy out and getting all the love with my unpredictable schedule. Therefore, I know how important it is to have someone who you can trust with your pups. I will strive to treat your fur babies just like my own because they’re our family! I recently retired from active duty military and am taking some much needed down time with my 4 dogs. I am available Monday-Saturday and would love to fit your fur babies into the routine! I have a large fenced backyard, I believe in positive reinforcement, and have 4 excited friendly pups who would love to share their space and toys with any new friends that want to play!
“Grace was amazing! We left our puppy for the first time to go on vacation, and Grace made this an excellent and relaxing experience for us. She took great care of our baby, and our house was immaculate when we came home! We will definitely book with Grace again!”

About: New to Rover and have always enjoyed looking after any pet. Greenville Native. I have a flexible schedule! Avid hiker, walker, runner who can bail you out if you need a caregiver for your Pup! I work Monday–Friday and get off at 5 PM, so I’m available for evening walks, drop-ins, and care after work. I’m completely free on weekends and have plenty of flexibility then! I Live right beside Paris Mountain State Park and frequent the park often! Also love walking on the swamp rabbit trail! My office is beside Cleaveland park and I walk there often as well!

“Will was wonderful to work with. Came over for a meet and greet and went over all instructions. He followed them perfectly. Took great care of our dogs and other animals. Spent time playing with the dogs and they seemed very happy! Took lots of pictures and sent lots of detailed updates. The dogs seemed very content when we got home! We plan to use Will services again!”

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and grew up surrounded by dogs of all kinds. I’m gentle and patient with senior pups and comfortable giving medications when needed. I’m also an active person, so your pets will get plenty of walks, playtime, and love. And it’s not just dogs—I’ve cared for cats too, so every furry friend is welcome! I am currently part time in school and have class on Tuesdays and Thursdays- so limited availability for drop in’s on those days. Other than that I work from home so I am able to move around and work from wherever. I’m very flexible with how you’d like me to care for your pets, and I always check in to make sure I’m following their routine just right. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities; I stay attentive and keep a close eye on them at all times. I love to play, give plenty of cuddles, and create a calm, loving environment where they feel safe and cared for.

About: Hi! I’m a dependable and caring pet lover who understands that pets are family. I provide attentive, personalized care so your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have experience with puppies to senior. I have worked with dogs that have had trauma in the past and special needs. My goal is simple, to make your pets feel happy, secure, and cared for like they’re part of my own family. If your pet loves attention, belly rubs, playtime, treats, or simply having someone nearby who truly cares we’ll get along great. I’m the kind of sitter who talks to pets like they’re people, notices the little things, and makes sure they feel comfortable and loved while you’re away. I know how important trust is when choosing someone to care for your furry family member, so I focus on reliability, communication, and creating a stress-free experience for both pets and owners. Expect lots of updates, adorable photos, and a pet who’s excited to see me again. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and building consistent routines around their care. I have a flexible schedule and make it a priority to provide your fur babies with the attention, exercise, companionship, and reliability they need to feel safe and comfortable. Whether it’s walks, feeding schedules, playtime, or simply giving them extra love and attention, I enjoy making pet care a meaningful part of my day. I provide a safe, loving, and structured environment for your fur babies both in my home and in my clients’ homes. In my home, they are treated like part of the family and receive plenty of attention, supervision, playtime, and affection throughout the day. I offer boarding in a home with a secure fenced in yard, which gives dogs a safe space for exercise, outdoor time, and play. I make it a priority to maintain each ones normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any special instructions from the owner. I also understand how important communication is, so I provide regular updates and photos to help parents feel comfortable and connected while they are away. When caring for them in a client’s home, I am respectful of their space and focus on keeping your fur baby comfortable in their familiar environment while ensuring they receive dependable, attentive care.
“Luke was amazing! He was very communicative and sent us photos daily. Came back to a pristine house and a happy healthy dog. We will definitely be using Luke again for future trips.”

About: I have been caring for pets since I was 7 years old and begged my parents for my first dog. We love all animals in our family. Walks, feeding, playtime and baths are no problems in our house. I currently working part -time. I live very closes to my job and can leave at any time to check on your pet. If your pet is crate trained feel free to bring their crate and I will make sure to continue with the training. I live in a larger 2 bedroom apartment. There is a dog park if you believe your dog would enjoy that I have no problem taking them. We have walking trails for me to take your dog on walk.
“Grace was exceptional! My wife and I are a little paranoid when it comes to our pups, but Grace put our minds at ease! She was more than happy to accommodate any small or large ask, was very communicative, and sent several pictures. Our pups loved her! We will be using Grace again in the future!”

“I am so grateful for Aubrey’s attentive care to our dogs and our house during our trip. She is a professional who goes above and beyond expectations, and the dogs absolutely love her. We wish we had met her sooner, and I am certain the dogs feel the same way! Many thanks to her for giving us complete peace of mind during our trip!”

“Kara was wonderful! She was willing to come sit with our baby Archer when we asked her last minute and on a holiday. We appreciate her kindness and the quality of care that she gave Archer.”

About: I’ve had pets all my life. The last 15 years have been with my sweet foxhound, Lego and for 4 of those with my laid back Bombay cat, Ivy. I’m a recent empty nester looking to put extra time to good use by caring for others’ loved pets. I work full time from home, and have a doggie door to my back yard that my work space overlooks. I like to take breaks and walk myself, so having a companion during those breaks would be great! I have a large fenced in yard and easy access from my kitchen. I also work from home and am able to go outside or walk pets as needed.
About: Growing up, our home was a joyful (and sometimes chaotic!) zoo of dogs, cats, hamsters, turtles, and even the occasional rescue rabbit. My earliest memories are of curling up with our German Shepherd after school, sneaking bits of toast under the table, and learning—through muddy paws and tail wags—that animals aren’t just pets, they’re family. Over the years, I’ve been lucky to care for animals in every stage of life—from bottle-feeding newborn kittens to administering medication to sweet senior dogs with arthritis. I have a soft spot for rescues and shy animals who need a little extra time to trust. I’ve worked with high-energy breeds that thrive with structured walks and stimulation, as well as gentle couch potatoes who just want someone close by to snuggle. What truly sets me apart is my intuition and respect for each animal’s individuality. I don’t treat pet care like a checklist—I listen, observe, and adapt to what your pet needs. Is your dog a slow walker who likes to sniff every blade of grass? We’ll take our time. Do they need mental stimulation? Let’s puzzle it out together. Does your cat demand a very particular style of chin scratch? Challenge accepted. I’m also comfortable with basic training and reinforcing routines around crate time, leash etiquette, and mealtime manners. I pay close attention to changes in behavior, appetite, or energy levels, because I know those subtle shifts matter. I’ve cared for pets with special diets, separation anxiety, allergies, and mobility issues—and I always treat these needs with the seriousness and compassion they deserve. To me, being a great pet sitter isn’t just about showing up on time—it’s about being fully present, fully invested, and truly loving what I do. I’m not just a caregiver—I’m your pet’s new best friend (and maybe their second-favorite human after you!). I work from home and make my own schedule so I build my days around your pets’ routines, not the other way around. I’m available for early morning walks, midday play breaks, or evening check-ins, and I pride myself on being reliable and responsive. Whether it’s a weekend getaway or your 9-to-5, I’m here to give your pet the love and attention they deserve. Whether in your home or mine, I create a safe, loving, and peaceful environment. I follow your instructions closely, keep spaces tidy and pet-friendly, and maintain communication throughout. I never leave pets unsupervised in unsafe situations, and I pay close attention to details—from locked gates to feeding routines. I have a fully-fenced, large yard for playtime and potty breaks, and there is no off-limits furniture for furry family members. My goal is always to make your pet feel secure, seen, and cared for.

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 Slater 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 Slater 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 Slater 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 , 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 .
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 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
