“This was my first time using Rover for my 2 dogs and Keira was Great! From my first request to the time she completed the drop in visits she was very professional. She was prompt with responding to me and extremely polite. I appreciated all the communication with updates and pictures. I will definitely ask Keira to help us again in the future.”
“Kat was amazing!!! I always get so stressed leaving my cat when I go out of town but she was fantastic, she sent pictures everyday and my apartment was in such better shape than normally when I get back from a trip and I absolutely credit it to Kat. Can't recommend enough!!”
“Jessica was absolutely fantastic! My beautiful cat, Daisy, is a little anxious around new people, but Jessica's calm demeanor and experience made the meet-and-greet incredibly easy and stress-free. I will definitely be booking with Jessica again. I feel completely at ease knowing Daisy will be in such caring and capable hands!”
About: Hi! I’m an experienced dog lover with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. Growing up in a family full of dogs, I’ve been around them my entire life and understand how to meet each pup’s unique needs. I’m dependable, patient, and focused on making every walk safe, enjoyable, and tailored to your dog’s personality. I’ll treat your dog like part of my own family! Dog walking fits naturally into my day. I enjoy being active and make time in my schedule to give each dog a safe, fun, and consistent walk. I’m available for walks Mon-Fri after 6pm & all day Sat-Sun! During walks, I treat every dog like my own. I follow your routine and preferences, make sure your dog feels comfortable on their leash, and tailor the walk to their energy level. Whether it’s a slower stroll or a more active walk, I focus on keeping them safe, happy, and well cared for.
About: I have had the responsibility of taking care of dogs since I was 6. Always had a dog in the house growing up. I have been asked to take care of dogs of family and friends. Whether it be housing their dogs, checking in and walking, or staying at their place to care for their pets. I do work M-F locally full time. I am able to go home at lunch time during the weekdays to walk and take care of your pet. Weekends I am off and available any time. I live in an apartment complex that has a completely fenced in dog park. I own a medium size dog who is relaxed, but playful and good with every dog he has ever met. On weekend I take my dog to the larger fenced in dog parks in the area for him to run around. I usually walk my dog 4 times a day. Once in the morning, once at lunch, and 2-3 times in the afternoon/night.
“Sara was a phenomenal cat sitter, and we were so grateful that she was able to accept our booking the same day after our original sitter canceled. She took wonderful care of our two cats while we were away, they warmed up to her quickly, and we truly appreciate everything she did! Thank you so much, Sara!”
“Paul was great! I requested drop-in visits extremely last minute. He adjusted his schedule to accomodate and did an amazing job. Looking forward to using him again.”
“Riley was great! She was always on time and was loved dearly by my pets. She followed all of my directions and went above and beyond in taking care of both of my dogs for a week. I’d highly recommend her for pet sitting!”
“Caroline was absolutely amazing with my dog, Molly! She took care of her for a full week while I was away, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Caroline kept me updated with photos and messages every day, which really put my mind at ease. When I came home, Molly was happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. It’s such a relief to know I can trust someone who treats my dog like her own. I highly recommend Caroline to anyone looking for a reliable and loving pet sitter!”
“Carson is absolutely phenomenal. There was an issue with the apartment key and getting in and she stayed and worked with me and my apartment complex to let my dog out. She is super quick to respond, dependable, and cares about making sure your pet is well taken care of. She did a great job!”
About: I have grown up with pets my whole life and have a big passion for the safety and well being of all animals. I have been dog sitting since I was young and have continued to dog sit for regular clients in my hometown for many years before moving. I am friendly, reliable and understand that all dogs have different needs. I am happy to call and introduce myself prior, I look forward to meeting you and your pup(s)! My job is flexible since I make my own schedule majority of the time. I am happy to come over to walk your dog, play with them, give them cuddles or just check on their food/water. I am also happy to host at my apartment since I can spend lots of time with them. I am flexible to your needs! I am capable of any care needed for your pet and would be excited to do it! I understand that all dogs should be treated and cared for based on their own needs while ensuring safety at all times. If you are wanting your dog to stay at my apartment, we are very dog friendly here and have a fenced in play area for them.
“Reagan did a great job. She helped care for my very geriatric cat and her particular needs. She kept her thriving for the 1.5 weeks I was away. Would re-hire and would recommend.”
“This was Caroline’s second time taking care of Percy. She is great! Very communicative and sends pictures and videos after each visit. We know she will take great care of Percy.”
About: I've taken care of animals since I was a young adult, especially dogs. I lost my senior baby several months ago, so I miss the energy and love dogs bring to your life. I have experience with senior dogs needing special medications or specific instructions. I also have experience with young dogs that have high energy and are a bit rambunctious (I'm active, so we'll get along great). I'm very detail-oriented and communicative, so you'll never have to worry about your baby while they're with me! I currently work part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to spend with your baby. I'm fully available Mondays, Wednesday-Friday/every other Saturday. The rest of the days I'm gone for about 4-5 hours at work. I'm still available to dog/housesit Sudays and Tuesdays, but I won't be home the whole day. I have a townhouse with a small fenced yard. I live alone in a non-smoking home with no pets, so your baby will get my full attention.
About: I have worked as a professional pet sitter and walker in the past. I will treat your pet as if they were my own! I I work from home full-time so I can provide plenty of love and care to your pets all day. My schedule varies but I have many breaks throughout the day and have good flexibility. My husband and I recently said goodbye to our dog and best girl, Bailey. After being “empty nesters” we decided it was time to adopt another dog. Shirley is a small girl and a puppy. She is still getting used to the big world but is adjusting fast. She lived in a foster home with multiple other dogs and cats where she got along with all.
About: We have had dogs and cats for years. Very knowledgeable,loving and fun! We love all dogs big and small, our last dog was a Shepherd My husband works at home full time.

About: Hi! I’m Jocelyn, a pediatric registered nurse who works three 12-hour night shifts each week. Because of my schedule, I have flexibility on my days off and can also provide care before or after my shifts depending on the booking. I always keep my calendar updated and communicate clearly so you’ll know exactly when I’m available. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting with plenty of love, attention, and playtime. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playing fetch, belly rubs, or simply having someone keep them company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’ll also follow any feeding schedules, medication instructions (if you’re comfortable with that), and routines to help your pet feel at home. As a pediatric nurse, I’m dependable, attentive to detail, and calm in unexpected situations. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I take the time to earn their trust. My goal is to treat every pet like they’re part of my own family while giving owners peace of mind through regular updates and photos. I work three 12-hour night shifts each week as a pediatric nurse, so my schedule is flexible on my days off and changes from week to week. I keep my Rover calendar updated and communicate my availability clearly. Depending on my work schedule, I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting before or after my shifts, as well as throughout my days off. I’ll always make sure your pet receives the time, attention, and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise, potty breaks, and any routines that help your pet feel at ease. I’ll treat your home with the same respect I would my own by keeping it clean, secure, and locking doors and gates before leaving. I understand that every pet has different needs, so I’ll provide patient, individualized care while keeping you updated with messages and photos throughout my visits. My goal is for you to feel completely confident that your pet is safe, loved, and in good hands while you’re away.
About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was young - my family dogs and neighbors’ pets while they were away. The last 6 years, I’ve had my own two dogs who I rescued when they were puppies. I’ve also cared for friends’ dogs while they’ve been away (ie. Check ins, walks, overnight). I’m comfortable with dogs of any size and of any age! I would be available for check ins/walks Monday-Saturday. I’m a mental health therapist full time but do have breaks and gaps throughout my days so depending on your needs, I would be available. I am also available for evening check ins/walks daily after 6:30pm. I live in an apartment with my two dogs (6 and 4). They’re both extremely gentle and friendly and would love to play! We go for walks around the area, which is a very safe area, and at times we will go to the dog park for socialization and play. I am good about keeping my dogs on a routine walk/potty break/feeding times so would certainly follow any routines other pet parents have for their fur babies!

Kelsey is a fantastic pet sitter! She came over within a day of me reaching out to her for a meet and greet, my 16 year old Bichon warmed up to her right away and she is very experienced with older dogs as well. Kelsey is very responsible, prompt, responsive to questions, and I felt very safe leaving my pets in her care. I highly recommend Kelsey!!
Carson is absolutely phenomenal. There was an issue with the apartment key and getting in and she stayed and worked with me and my apartment complex to let my dog out. She is super quick to respond, dependable, and cares about making sure your pet is well taken care of. She did a great job!

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.
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 Sullivans Island 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 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 .
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.

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 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.
