“Saffron was a lifesaver taking my last minute.Request to take care of my cat. She sent me some awesome pictures and kept me informed of her health and well being.”
“Brandy is awesome and i love the communication she keeps! I feel confident and grateful that she can take care of my Moose man and he’s comfortable and happy everytime !”
“Jennifer always provides excellent care for our kitty. We appreciate the time she spends with him—playing, giving pets and of course Bilbo’s favorite—treats and canned food. Highly recommend Jennifer!”
“Alex took awesome care of our 3 kitty siblings. We felt very comfortable being away with Alex stopping in. She sent us daily pictures and played with the brothers. Even their super shy sister came out of hiding on day 3. Will definitely hire Alex again.”
“So pleased. Came back to find my dogs happier than ever to see me, but they were calm and relaxed. I will use Dawn again. What a good feeling to have a caring person watch your pets in their own home. Loved the picture updates!”
“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!”
“These kitties are very shy with new friends (even in the presence of food!!) It is clear that them coming out to be around Savannah is a testament to her warmth and presence. We ended up with altered travel plans due to the crazy weather and could not get back home as planned. Savannah was quick to respond, putting our mind at ease. Huge thanks to her for taking great care, and especially such short notice!”
“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?”
“Lizzy was an amazing sitter!!! She provided consistent updates with pictures and asked the right questions when needed. We will definitely ask Lizzy to watch our kitties again in the future! She also played with them and the kitties clearly loved her :)”
“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.”
“Kelley did a great job with drop in visits for my dog while we were out of town. She left very detailed notes, shared tons of sweet pictures, and communicated wonderfully throughout our trip. She was also extremely responsive to our last minute request, and when we ended up extending our trip, she was able to accommodate without any issues. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such good hands.”
“Lauren has been absolutely wonderful! She is on time always and keeps me updated on my pups' potty events. In all honestly, I watched the first entire encounter on the Ring camera, not bc of her necessarily but bc one of my dogs CAN be an asshole. Now, I dont even look at the camera at all, my dogs love her and she re-directs them with ease as needed. Thanks Lauren, I am so glad you came into our lives :)”
“Alicia was absolutely amazing, and I will definitely be using her again in the future! She provided drop-in visits for my dog throughout the day and exceeded my expectations in every way. Her communication was excellent from start to finish. She kept me updated during each visit and sent plenty of photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Most importantly, she took the time to make my dog feel comfortable and cared for, and it was clear from the photos and updates that my dog was happy and well looked after. You can truly tell that Alicia is passionate about what she does and genuinely cares about the pets in her care. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and professional pet sitter.”
“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!”
“We couldn't be happier with Bridgette! From the start, she was warm, friendly, and incredibly responsive, always quick to communicate and give us peace of mind while we were away. What really set her apart was when she went out of her way to stop by our home outside of her scheduled visits to check on something for us. That kind of dedication is truly above and beyond what we expected. Most importantly, our dogs absolutely adored her. Animals don't lie, and the way our girls immediately took to Bridgette told us everything we needed to know. We'll definitely be booking with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring pet sitter!”

Lizzy is AMAZING!! I myself have been a Rover Sitter and my expectations were high and she BLEW THEM OUT OF THE WATER. My puppies are high energy and we were still waiting for our fence to be built so I was nervous but they could NOT have been happier and so many pets and love. I felt at ease and for the first time on vacation relaxed!!! Lizzy is wonderful and you and your pets deserve to enjoy your time!!!
Jennifer was perfect! This was my first time using Rover and she ensured everything was done correctly and even came by to meet Zeep and ensure she knew where everything was before the actual visit. Her reports were very thorough and included Zeep’s behavior and mood as well as routine items. She will be the first person I look at when I need a Rover sitter in the future :)
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!
Cathryn and Jarrod were awesome! They dropped in to hang out with our dog Ravioli and made everything super easy. They were on time, sent updates, and gave Ravioli tons of love and attention. We came home to a happy pup and couldn’t have asked for better sitters. Definitely recommend them and will book again! 🐾

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Summerville on Rover is $18.32 per visit (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of June 2026, there are 2,720 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:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
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.
