“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!”
“Katrina was exceptional: l would give her 6 stars if l could! She was friendly and competent and amazing with my scaredy cat Pepper. Every request l had regarding Pepper's care was carried out cheerfully and completely, all the while keeping me informed with texts and photos which really put my mind at ease. Thank you a thousand times Katrina! I couldn't have asked for better. Liz R”
About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was a kid, starting with feeding my neighbor’s cats while she was away as my first job. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, turtles, and even farm animals including cows! As a physical therapist and owner of an energetic Australian Shepherd, I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and exercise needs. Whether your dog is ready for an adventure or prefers a slower paced walk, I’ll tailor each visit to what they need. I’m reliable, punctual, and will keep you updated so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I’ll treat your pet like they’re one of my own. As a mobile physical therapist, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to fit pet care into my day. I genuinely enjoy getting outside and spending time with dogs, and I do my best to work around your schedule while providing dependable, consistent care that fits your pet’s routine. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I’ll take the time to learn their personality, preferences, and any special instructions so they receive the care that’s right for them. I’ll treat your home with the same respect I would my own and always ensure your pet is secure before leaving. You can also expect timely updates and photos after each visit for added peace of mind.
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 Wed-Fri/every other Saturday. The rest of the days I'm gone for about 3-4 hours at work. I'm still available to dog/housesit Sun-Tues, 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.
“Cami is very reliable and takes great care of my dog with drop-in visits and walks several times per week. She is responsive to scheduling requests and is very professional. I enjoy seeing the photos of my dog during check-ins while at work!”
“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!”
About: I’ve always been an animal lover and enjoy spending time with pets. I’m active, responsible, and attentive, making me a great fit for dogs who enjoy walks and playtime as well as cats who appreciate some attention and companionship. I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I have a flexible work schedule depending on the week. I can walk your pet before work, during my lunch break, and after work depending on how active your pet is. I will make sure that they are active and get plenty of bathroom breaks. I treat them how I would want to be treated. When I am away at work, either my roommate or girlfriend will stop in to check on your pet.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and can’t imagine life without them. I’ve been dog sitting and walking for family and friends for the past 7 years, and somewhere along the way became the person everyone calls when they need someone to spoil their pup. I have a golden retriever of my own who is very loved (and very aware of it), so I know how important it is to have someone you trust with your dog. I’m currently working part time and have a pretty flexible schedule. I have time in the early morning, afternoon, or some evenings to watch or walk your pet. I have a large front and backyard where dogs can safely run and play using a long leash that gives them freedom to the entire yard while staying safe and secure. I like to keep a consistent routine with play time, feeding, and lots of attention and care. If I’m in someone else’s home, I try to stick as closely as I can to their normal routine so the pet feels as relaxed and at home as possible.
“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: 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 have been dog walking/pet sitting for the past few summers! I am very reliable and I can’t wait to meet and hang out with your furry friend!

I have classes in the morning but still have plenty of time to be with your pup the rest of the day :) I am able to board your dog in my apartment as long as he or she is house trained! I am also happy to come to your home, let your dog out, take him/her on walks or just play with him/her and I will make sure I follow your instructions carefully!

I work 30 hours a week close to home. We love to walk around the old Village or go to the dog park at Alhambra Hall We have a lovely comfortable home in the Old Village of Mount Pleasant. We have lots of different walking routes and love the dog parks here.
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.
About: I've spent the past several years walking and watching dogs for friends and family, from high-energy pups needing exercise to older dogs needing a gentler pace. I'm patient, attentive to each dog's individual personality and needs, and treat every walk like I would with my own pet — reliable, on time, and fully present. I'm home all day, which means I have the flexibility to build walks and playtime right into my daily routine rather than squeezing them into a rushed window. I love taking multiple walks throughout the day, so your dog gets consistent exercise, bathroom breaks, and attention rather than one long walk and hours alone. I live in a condo with a secure, screened balcony, so overnight guests have a calm, comfortable indoor environment plus safe outdoor access to relax and enjoy some fresh air. I don't have any pets of my own, so your dog gets my full, undivided attention throughout their stay — no other animals to share space or compete for attention with. I keep doors and balcony access secure at all times, stick closely to consistent potty breaks on leash throughout the day and before bed, and follow your feeding, routine, and any special instructions exactly as given.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sullivans Island
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!
She was absolutely wonderful with our senior dog! She was so patient, kind, and loving, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were out of town. Communication was excellent throughout the entire stay, and we always felt updated and reassured. We would 100% book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring for their pets!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Sullivans Island stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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 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 .

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 Sullivans Island with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
