About: I have owned dogs my entire life and have been raising my 9 year old pup since she was 8 weeks old! I’m a huge lover of animals, but I’m definitely a dog person. I’m currently on a reduced work schedule, as I own a cleaning business and am expecting my first child. With that being said, I work about 4 hours each morning Monday through Friday and I’m home the rest of the time. I have a big yard with room to roam on the anchored leads. I also have two loving and friendly dogs, aged 9 and 14, who love company! Special needs can be accommodated and crates can be utilized if necessary. Potty breaks are about every 2-3 hours but can be more frequent if necessary
“Abigail was an amazing Dog Sitter. She kept me updated with videos and pictures of my dogs. They had a great time hanging out with two other little dogs that she was dog sitting. When I am in Myrtle Beach., I would absolutely use Abigail‘s services again”
“My boyfriend and I went to myrtle beach for a little weekend get away before we started up college again. We decided to take our dog, haezel with us, because she’d never been on a trio or saw the beach before. Sunday was our last day to finish up our plans before we had to leave, so we looked for a sitter. I searched and searched and searched for hours, until we ran into this sweet lady. We had been looking for a sitter since 9am, at this point it was 2pm and Ms.Debra was the most amazing life saver. She met us at a half way point and she was able to keep haezel for the rest of the day. She was constantly messaging me, letting me know how haezel was doing while we were away and even sending picture updates. That was the first time I’d ever left my dog for a long period of time, and Ms.Debrs definitely helped sooth my anxiety.”
“We are not from NMB but our son had a baseball tournament there. So glad we found Christy. Not only was she near the ballpark, but Cosmo had a blast with some new fur buddies! Thank you Christy for taking care of Cosmo. He had so much fun he immediately knocked out on our drive home. We’ll definitely reach out again the next time we’re in NMB.”
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and have cared for dogs of all kinds since I was young. I’m dependable, patient, and attentive, and I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’m happy to provide walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, cuddles, and plenty of attention. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Your pets will be treated with the same love and care I give my own. I’m currently not working, so I have plenty of time and flexibility to give your pets the attention they deserve. I’m available for boarding on weekends and weekdays, and I can accommodate walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and plenty of cuddles. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine and keep you updated while you’re away I have a secure fenced yard where dogs can safely get fresh air, exercise, and play. I have two friendly dogs of my own, and I’m happy to introduce them carefully and make sure every pet is comfortable.

“Abigail was wonderful with Daisy! Daisy loved getting to play with her five-month-old puppy, and Abigail sent us pictures throughout her stay. She was also very flexible and easy to work with. We would definitely book with her again!”
“Digo loves being at daycare! Janet keeps him active and assures that he is socializing with other dogs. She takes him outside often and keeps him inside when weather is not conducive. She introduced him to kiddie pool and she reinforces training including housebreaking and simple commands such as “sit”. Janet is also very flexible with schedule - I’m a nurse and my hours are very early and long! We are very fortunate to have found Janet!”
About: My entire life I’ve grown up with animals all over the house. My parents always had at least 6 pets that I would help love and care for. When I moved out, I took my little kitty with me and left behind 7 more pets. I’ve pet-sit for friends and neighbors, and I’ve walked dogs until they were finally ready to go home. I love all animals and will treat your pets with the same love and care as my own. I’m currently going to be working short night shifts so I will have plenty of time to walk and care for your pets. My mornings are free for early walks and I have no problem stopping by late if needed! I have a 2 bedroom which is lots of space for my 6 pound kitten to play around. I spoil her with toys and play with her all day. I have a little backyard which she’s too scared to use but it would be perfect for other animals to play. I also have a very walkable neighborhood with lots of friendly animals that go on walks as well!
“I cannot say enough great things about Jody! From the moment we met, I knew my fur baby was in amazing hands. 🐶💖 She sent me regular updates, tons of adorable photos and treated my Alfie like family. Whether it was cuddle time, walks, or playtime, I could tell my dog was happy, relaxed, and so well cared for. Thank you again for being so reliable, loving, and thoughtful. We’re already looking forward to the next stay! 🐾💕”
“Jess was great at making me feel comfortable prior to our first doggy day care day with her. She offered a site visit, but I chose to do a video call instead for ease of my schedule. Through talking to her I instantly knew she would be a great fit for my dog. Upon drop off, she welcomed me in so I could see where Norton would be for the day. She sent several updates with pictures throughout the day. Norton seemed to have a good time and felt relaxed in her home. Thank you Jess for the peace of mind taking care of my furbaby while we did a day trip. We will definitely use Jess again.”
About: I understand how nerve wracking it can be to have someone new care for your baby! I’ve been caring for pups for roughly 10 years. I’m typically the go-to sitter for my friends but and family. I treat your pup as my own. I ensure they stick to their normal routine and get plenty of exercise and love so they’re comfortable! I work remote and have my own friendly golden I take on my walks throughout the day, so I am flexible with my schedule. Week days and weekends work for me. I have my own pup, so your pup will have company and I will treat yours as my own! I am happy to crate if needed or follow any extra safety protocols you need. I am confident in administering medicine your pup needs as well. I will send daily updates and photos to ease your mind! Pups are welcome on furniture (with your permission) so they can feel cozy and at home.
“Molly takes such great care of my pup! He has a ball with her dog and comes home so tired. The first day he was so nervous when I left him and now he jumps right out and runs to her door! Will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Jenny was a lifesaver for me after a previous dog sitter canceled on me last min. I was traveling from out of town and had an event the next day so scrambling to find a last min dog sitter was a challenge but Jenny was more than willing to take my pups for the day and she took great care of them while I was away for the day!”
“Leah was wonderful- accommodating us for a little last-minute time adjustment and was kind and easygoing. Our dog Pearl seemed to have a super fun time with her dogs, came home tired (in a good way) and happy. Would definitely use her again. Thank you Leah!”
About: My whole life, I've grown up with cats and dogs (tabby's and pit-bulls to be exact). I have trained 3 puppies (basic commands like sit and stay) and have taken care of one senior dog (18) and a senior cat (17). I do prefer a week in advance heads up, but will help as best as I can! Open to early mornings and late nights. Just communicate your needs and I will do my best to accommodate you. Pets are always cared for in a safe, clean, and supervised environment, whether in my home or yours. I remove hazards, maintain routines, and prioritize comfort, security, and trust. In clients’ homes, I respect all instructions, keep spaces clean, and ensure pets feel comfortable and well cared for at all times.
About: I’ve had pets my entire life and have been caring for animals since I was young. I have experience with dogs, cats, and more unique pets, including reptiles and small animals. My mom even has a possum and a snake, so I’m very comfortable with out-of-the-ordinary pets and special care routines. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on keeping pets safe, happy, and loved. I’m currently a college student at Coastal Carolina University and a member of the club cheer team. Outside of classes and practices, I have flexible availability and would love to spend my free time caring for pets. I am available during weekdays and weekends, and I’m happy to work with your schedule whenever possible. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy, not just a job to me. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I’ll follow any instructions you provide closely, including feeding schedules, medications, and special care needs. I treat every home and pet with respect, compassion, and responsibility. I make sure pets are always supervised, exercised appropriately, and given plenty of attention and affection. I believe animals thrive on kindness and consistency, and I strive to create a calm, loving environment so your pet feels safe and cared for while you’re away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Sunset Beach commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in NC ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 .
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 , 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 .
Yes, you can find sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. Many sitters can respond to messages in under an hour.
To find the fastest available match, message multiple sitters with a recent "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
