About: I have taken care of animals of every kind since I was a young child. I routinely keep my family and friend’s animals while they are busy or just for fun! I am currently a work from home parent with plenty of time to give your baby the one-on-one time they need! Extra lovings and playtime is taken serious 😊 In your home I will diligently work with your animals the way that you need me too! I cannot wait to meet you and your baby.
About: I've been an animal lover my entire life. My mom gave me my first dog when I was about five years old, and I've had at least one dog by my side ever since. Today, my husband and I share our home with five wonderful dogs who are truly part of our family. They aren't just pets—they're our babies, and we love and care for them as such. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members because I feel the exact same way about my own. Whether your dog loves to play, go for walks, cuddle on the couch, or just needs a little extra patience and attention, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. When your dog is in my care, I'll treat them with the same kindness, love, and respect that I give my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your best friend is being cared for like family. I currently work a full-time 12-hour rotating swing shift, so my availability alternates every other week. One week, I am available on Monday, Tuesday, and Friday. The following week, I am available on Wednesday and Thursday. This schedule repeats on a rotating basis. I make every effort to keep my Rover calendar up to date so you always know when I'm available to care for your pets. At this time, I offer drop-in visits and dog walking services only. Because my husband and I have five dogs of our own, I am unable to provide boarding or in-home care at my residence. My focus is on giving your pets the love, attention, exercise, and care they need in the comfort of their own home, where they feel safest and most relaxed.

“Sonia did a great job of taking care of our two cats. She did everything she said she would do and consistently communicated with us. We would definitely use her services again.”

About: I can’t remember a time in my life I haven’t had at least 4 or 5 dogs around me. My family calls me a dog whisperer. Me and dogs just.. understand each other… I think they read the “grandparent” energy I have for them! Every dog loves me because I take care of them and listen to them. I have a beautiful 5 acres and the house for them to stay in and also a 1,200 square foot air conditioned clean garage for them to play in as well as a good yard and a perfect place to walk them if anyone likes their dogs to have extra walks. I’d love to take care of your babies for any reason! I’m pretty flexible so just let me know what you have in mind. I’m available all day every day pick up or drop off. Anytime any day. Dog boarding and grooming and training is what I do and no one does it better! I care for all animals as if they were my own babies. Animals have this pure energy that comes from them and we just understand each other. I love playing with and being around the animals and they love to be around me the same way. I make sure to be careful about leaving dogs unattended I always assure safety first. But a close second to safety is freedom. They love feeling free. And I offer them that safely.

“Eleanor did a great job with my two cats. She communicated well with me throughout the process. I told Eleanor she would probably never see my cats but she went the extra mile and found them. She even took pictures to show where they were. Thank you for doing a great job, Eleanor.”


About: I’ve had and taken care of many different breeds and sizes over my life time of dogs as well as special needs and cats too! I typically wake up around 7-8. Go to the gym sometime within the day but other than that I’m free to watch your babies and take good care of them. I have a really friendly dog who is no more than 20 pounds and a fenced in yard if I watch them at my house. If at someone else house I have plenty of experience with that too and can do all that will be asked.
About: Hi! My name is Sammi and I have 12+ years of taking care of all varieties of animals. I currently own 2 dogs (1 aussie and 1 recently rescued great pyreneese) , 2 cats, 4 horses and 2 reptiles of my own. I have worked with rescues, shelters and non-profits in the past so I am skilled in caring for animals with all kinds of needs. I also work from home with a flexible schedule so I am able to accommodate special requests and special needs animals during the week for those that need more attention. I look forward to speaking with you about how I can best help you and your animals! I currently work from home with flexible hours so am available usually from 8am to 8pm each day, with flexibility where needed. I currently walk my own dogs a mile or two every other day, with them being walked on the property every 4 hours for exercise. I live on 8 acres with woods so plenty of room for dogs to run around and play. I currently do not have a fenced in yard, but have multiple tether setups and/or long line leashes to walk dogs on and let them roam a bit while controlled. My 2 dogs are males who are friendly with others and love to play outside in the backyard. Since I am home during the day, all animals get lots of cuddles in my house (allowed on furniture) and constant interaction of bones, toys, tug of war, toys etc. I do have separate areas that dogs can be crated in alone if preferred. I do also have 2 cats that are dog friendly but have their own room they can be closed off in if needed.
About: I’ve been taking care of animals since before I was 10 years old. I have experience with dogs of all ages and sizes and have raised a lab and pit of my own. My family and friends have always felt comfortable relying on me for the care of their animals! There’s no pup too big or too small around here I’m fully free on the weekends for whatever the babies need throughout the day, I do currently work full time during the week but I come home around 3 everyday so there are only a couple of hours they would be alone during the day, But after that I usually let them out about every hour until we go to bed We have a fully fenced in yard that spans about an acre we also have a doggy door they could go in and out if they would like and we have two of our own dogs here both big babies I have my 12 year old black lab who pretty much stays to himself and our 5 year old brown pit mix who loves to be anybody and everybody's friend

Dogs are precious, so I will take good care of your dog while you’re away! Because a pup isn’t just a pet, it’s family!!

I have a fenced in back yard to take care of your furry friends, so they can play all day! I’ll also take pictures of your furry friend and keep you updated while you’re away.
About: Hugh L. III (nickname Trey) To comfort any animal brings comfort to me. I will do anything to ensure health and happiness for your pets even if it is merely sitting with them and providing company and love. I have experience with administering medication, dog walks, continuing a training regimen set by owner or introducing new behavioral solutions, caring for high anxiety animals with patience and gentleness. Also I have experience in caring for geriatric and special needs animals: diaper changing, getting pets in and out of wheelchairs, and care and cleaning for incontinence. I’m currently working Monday through Friday 6:00am to 2:00pm, I get an hour lunch from 11:00 to 12:00pm so I could check on animals during lunch and then of course be with them at all times outside of this work schedule, I’m off Saturday and Sunday. I will be offering all services except for boarding in my own home because present circumstances prevent me from doing so. If I sit for you in your home I will treat it with the utmost respect and abide by any and all guidelines you provide including cleaning up after any pet incident, bathing, playtime, etc.

About: Ive taken care of animals since I was 11. Ive had animals that range from hamsters to horses and alpacas. I have experience medicating, bathing and general care. I have worked with horses in a professional capacity. I am currently between chapters in my life. I'll have plenty of time to pop in and help out! Cant wait to meet all the lovely darlings! Understanding animal behavior is a huge part of my care. Different species, individual animals, all have various needs and methods of communication. I do my best to follow all instructions from you, while also respecting each critter's individual communications in the moment.

Your pet’s comfort and happiness are my top priority 🐾💕 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I plan my schedule around being consistent and dependable for the pets I care for. I build in time each day for walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins to make sure every pet gets the attention they need. On a weekly basis, I keep my schedule flexible so I can accommodate regular clients as well as last-minute requests. I’m used to balancing responsibilities, so I make sure pets are always a priority and never rushed. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday visits, or evening care, I make time to give each pet proper care, attention, and companionship. Caring for animals isn’t something I squeeze in—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and make part of my everyday life. At this time, I’m not offering boarding in my home or overnight stays in clients’ homes. I currently focus on drop-in visits and dog walking, where I can give pets reliable, one-on-one care in their own environment. During each visit, I make sure your pet is fed, has fresh water, gets exercise or playtime, and plenty of attention. I stick closely to your pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. I’m also happy to follow any special instructions, including medications or specific care needs. I respect your home and make sure everything is left clean, safe, and secure. You’ll also receive regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. As my schedule grows, I may expand my services in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 335 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Summerville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Summerville stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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.
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 Summerville. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs

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 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.
