“Jabrea was great!! I did a last minute booking because I was going out of town and she made the entire situation stress free and easy! My dogs were taken well care of?”
About: Hi! I'm Kernix — a military spouse, dog lover, and proud chocolate Lab mom to Josie! I know how important it is to find a safe, loving, and stress-free place for your pup while you're away. My goal is to provide a true "home away from home" experience with lots of attention, structure, and affection. I grew up around animals and have always loved caring for them. Growing up, we had pugs, chihuahuas, bunnies, and hamsters, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. We moved to South Carolina in October 2025 after previously being stationed in Washington. My husband is originally from Myrtle Beach, SC, and we've loved settling into the Summerville community and making it feel like home. 1 Family at a Time for Boarding: I only accept one client family at a time for overnight boarding, so your pup will receive personalized care without the stress of a crowded boarding environment. About Our Home & Routine: We live in a quiet, dog-friendly neighborhood with a fully fenced backyard where pups can safely play, sniff, and explore. Dogs enjoy regular potty breaks, supervised playtime, enrichment activities, belly rubs, and lots of companionship throughout the day. I also closely follow feeding routines and medication schedules when needed. Meet Josie: We also have our sweet chocolate Lab,Josie! She is extremely friendly and social and has done wonderfully with every person, dog, and cat she has met so far. Josie enjoys meeting friendly dogs and would love a playmate during your pup's stay. Meet & Greets & Communication: I highly encourage meet & greets before boarding, especially for first-time stays. I want both you and your pup to feel comfortable and confident before booking. Communication is very important to me, and I always do my best to stay flexible with drop-off and pick-up times whenever possible. Boarding & Doggy daycare: Doggy day care pickup is by 5 PM. If pickup is needed after 5 PM, please book boarding instead so I can properly accommodate your pup's evening and overnight care routine. Boarding Requirements: To help keep everyone safe and comfortable, I currently only accept: • Dogs that are reasonably potty trained • Friendly dogs that do well around people and other dogs • Dogs that are up to date on vaccinations and flea/tick prevention Because I provide care in my personal home, I may not be the best fit for dogs with severe separation anxiety, destructive behaviors, or frequent indoor accidents.
“Brandy is just awesome! She's kindness, empathetic and reliable all wrapped up in a fun great attitude. She took great care of our two kitties for two weeks. Made sure to send daily updates and pictures. Was even able to pet our grumpiest kitty! I will recommend her to anyone who needs pet care. Forever grateful for the peace of mind that allowed us to enjoy a long vacation. Thank you so much Brandy!”
“My 3 girls IMMEDIATELY took to Alyssa! They are friendly dogs, but it was rather ridiculous that there was an INSTANT acceptance. 😊 However, that was all we needed to know she was trustworthy. They daily photos of them clearly cuddling and enjoying Alyssa made our absence easy. I will DEFINITELY look first at Alyssa’s availability for any future needs. We are so grateful for her wonderful care of our girls!”
“I went looking for a Rover sitter very early in the morning and she had already updated when she was available. That alone convinced me to book her. The meet and greet went well and I knew that she would take great care of my babies. She is simply the best. My "vampire kitty" looked well cared for in the pictures she sent me. Next time I need a sitter, Mya will be my choice.”
About: I've spent years caring for animals with a variety of personalities, ages, and needs. Living with a Great Dane has made me very comfortable handling large and giant breeds, and caring for my Labrador through her 17th year gave me plenty of experience with the extra patience and attention senior dogs need. I'm also experienced in administering insulin injections and following medication schedules for pets with medical needs. No matter your animal’s age, size, or routine, I'll make sure they receive attentive, compassionate care and feel right at home while you're away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I have a flexible schedule that allows me to make time for the pets in my care. I typically finish work by 3 PM, and I also have two days each week where I work from home, giving me extra availability and flexibility throughout the day. When needed, I can also use my lunch break to check in on your pets and make sure they’re doing well. I’m available for evening and weekend care as well, allowing me to provide consistent attention, companionship, and support for your pet’s daily routine. I provide pet care in my client’s home, where I can help pets feel comfortable by keeping their familiar routines and surroundings. I understand that every pet has their own needs, so I focus on providing attentive, reliable care that includes feeding, playtime, walks, medication needs, and plenty of companionship. I’m available for weekday visits, evenings, and weekends, and I also offer daily walks and evening walks to help keep pets happy, active, and well cared for while their owners are away.
“Mary Kay was wonderful with my service dog Sunshine and his many “rules.” She was personable and kind, and he took to her instantly. I will definitely be having her back with Sunshine soon!”
“Sadie was awesome and took great care of my boys while I was away. Great communication and letting me know how they were doing. Would highly recommend and will definitely request her care again!”
“Dawn was great with my pups, even going on the hunt for one of them after my landscapers left the gate open and he got out. She made my trip stress-free, sending pics and taking great care of them.”
“Jennifer has a way with dogs! She kept my pups happy and healthy while we were gone, provided as lots of updates and kept in constant contact. I trust my pups with her completely and they were always happy to see her. I would highly recommend her services and will definitely be re-booking with her again!”
“Gillian was so kind and loving to Jafar while we were away. Not only was she responsive and adaptable, she sent tons of photos and detailed notes so we felt like he was in good hands. Thanks so much Gillian!”
About: Hi! I’m a local Summerville artist and pottery instructor who absolutely loves dogs! I’ve always found so much comfort and joy in their companionship, and I know how important it is to feel confident that your pets are happy and well cared for while you’re away. I provide attentive, loving care tailored to each dog’s individual needs and personality. My goal is to make every pup feel safe, seen, heard, and cared for—just like they’re at home with you! I’m currently working part-time as a pottery instructor, so I have flexible availability in the mornings. I am available all day Mondays and anytime before 1pm Tuesdays through Thursdays! I love spending time outdoors and would be happy to give your pup some exercise, attention, and companionship while you’re away. I currently live with three dogs and two cats, so I’m very comfortable caring for a variety of pets! Our dogs have plenty of room to run and play outside, but they especially love taking strolls around the neighborhood. We have two small dogs and one large dog, so I’m used to adjusting walks and activities to each dog’s individual needs—including accommodating those little legs when they need a shorter stroll! I love making sure every pet gets the exercise, attention, and care that’s right for them.
“Chelsea did a great job with our cats. Arrived home to a clean and tidy kitchen and litter boxes. She is a good communicator and we enjoyed the pictures she sent. We recommend her as a terrific sitter!”
About: *PLEASE READ* Transparency is important to me, so I want pet parents to know I work full-time in Mount Pleasant during the weekdays (7:30 AM–4:00 PM). Because of my commute from Summerville, I’m unable to leave work early before 4:00 PM. This schedule works best for pets comfortable during the workday, and I’m fully available for evenings, nights, and weekends.. Communication is very important to me — I provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins so you always know your pet is safe and cared for. My goal is for both pets and owners to feel completely comfortable and confident while they’re apart. I can do drop in before 630 am and anytime after 4 pm Caring for pets fits naturally into my day because spending time with animals is something I truly love.” Dogs are my peace and relaxing time. “Reliable, loving care for your pet, with routines, exercise, and plenty of attention. “Your pet’s happiness and safety is my top priority." Happy babies.
“Natalie was wonderful with my cats! She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me peace of mind. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter”
About: I have 3 dogs and 2 horses myself so I have plenty of experience with animals. I love taking dogs on walks or out to the the park to go play and make friends. I am an athlete so taking the dogs with me to exercise is always fun. I’m very organized so high maintenance pets are not a problem for me. Having horses I can deal with a lot. Young dogs are also not a problem I have had dogs in the past that have had puppies or I have raised dogs from puppies. Choose me to be your dog’s or cat’s best friend when you’re away. I also love to send the owners pictures and videos of their pets when they are away so they know that they are doing well. I am a teacher that loves to spend my free with animals and caring for them. I have a pretty set schedule from 6am-2:45pm but after that I can be pretty flexible. I also am happy to do overnight stays. On weekends I able to to multiple visits through out the day. I can go on 2-3 walks with them a day and do not mine taking them to a dog park to play. I let them out to potty multiple times during the day. If the weather is nice we go on walks and spend a good amount of time playing outside. If it is a raining day I spend time with them inside play as well. I try to be sure to stay on their schedule as best as I can. That they go on their regular walks and get their food at their regular times.
About: I've been around or watched dogs ever since I can remember. I've dog sat for everyone I know. Every dog is different so they all have to be taken care of differently. I have three of my own. Abbie is a chiweenie and the oldest at 14 years old. Flint is a chihuahua and 8 years old. Then Sadie is the “baby” even though she’s a blue heeler and the biggest at 4 years old. I love all dogs no matter the size or age and can’t wait to meet your furry friend! I am currently a stay at home mom and have tons of free time while the kids are in school. I would love to add in taking care of your furry friends into my daily routine. I will be with your dogs every step of the visit making sure they’re actually getting out in the yard to go to the bathroom or getting walked until they’ve done all of their business.

Jennifer is awesome! Her visits are extremely thorough and she is very diligent about making sure everything is taken care of while also making my pet feel comfortable and taken care of. I love how many photos she takes every time she visits and her daily visit journals are always super detailed. I cannot recommend her enough!
Alyssa is awesome and very thoughtful! We never worry about our kitties when they are in her care. She always keeps in close communication and asks questions when we forget to include something in our care instructions. I highly recommend her to anyone who needs care for their animals!
Kelly it did an amazing job I have two senior pets that she cared for and she was amazing with both of them she thought to water my plants before I even mentioned it. She brought her little boy which absolutely make my dog the happiest boy in the world 💓 would definitely recommend.

As of September 2026, there are 1,242 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Summerville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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 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.
