“Ella did a great job being on time and giving us plenty of pictures while we were out of town. She was even flexible with the schedule after our flight was delayed. I’ll definitely ask Ella for help again.”
About: I have extensive dog sitting experience and a genuine love for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I’m comfortable caring for energetic puppies, laid-back seniors, anxious dogs who need extra patience, and everything in between. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away, and I always strive to create a calm, caring environment for them. I’m experienced with walks, feeding routines, playtime, crate routines, administering basic medications if needed, and giving dogs the attention and affection they deserve. I’m attentive to each dog’s unique needs and personality, whether that means lots of exercise and play or quiet companionship and reassurance. My goal is always to make both pets and owners feel completely at ease. I work full-time, but I carefully plan pet care around my schedule to ensure every pet receives attentive, dependable care and plenty of love. I’m very organized with my routine and make time for walks, feeding schedules, playtime, check-ins, and quality attention before and after work, as well as throughout evenings and weekends. Because I genuinely enjoy caring for animals, pet sitting is something I intentionally make space for in my life — not something rushed or treated as an afterthought. I’m committed to making pets feel comfortable, cared for, and secure while keeping owners updated and reassured along the way. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to maintain their normal routine and create a calm, comfortable environment while their owners are away. I understand that pets feel safest in familiar surroundings, so I focus on keeping their schedule consistent with feeding, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and plenty of affection and attention. I’m respectful, responsible, and attentive while staying in someone’s home, and I treat both pets and the home with great care. I also provide regular updates, photos, and communication so owners can feel reassured knowing their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for.
“Erin was awesome!!!! She took such great care of our animals and was very communicative! She went above and beyond to make my animals feel safe and loved while we were away. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Jessica was great overall!! She communicated well before booking with her up until her last day. She’s very professional and personable. Our furbaby loved her dearly! I would definitely book with her again! Thanks Jessica!!”
“Sharon was awesome with my boy !! I booked on short notice , but Sharon worked it out for a quick meet & greet the day of. My boy loved her !! She sent me lots of pictures of her visit . I would definitely recommend Sharon and will use her again when I need a sitter ?”
“Chase was absolutely wonderful taking care of my cat during my vacation. He is a fantastic communicator and put me at ease about leaving my fur baby with him. Chase is so personable; my cat immediately took to him. I for sure will be using Chase in the future.”
About: I have grown up around animals my whole life & even fostered animals for a short period. From chihuahuas to great pyrenees, I have experience with them all. I have a full time job as a Social Worker, but I am 100% available to you and your pets during the weekends, early mornings, and weeknights. Looking forward to meeting your pups and kitties! My goal is to make sure your pet is happy. My personal pet has separation anxiety and I understand the fear in leaving your pet home alone. I will make sure your fur baby is cared for in every way possible!
About: I’ve pet sat for my neighbors and family members for a few years. I used to pet sit for my aunt a lot and I loved it but she moved away, so I can’t pet sit for her anymore. I had so much fun, and I love spending time and caring for every animal. I look forward to meeting your amazing pets, and watching over them for you! I’m currently unemployed and have plenty of free time to check in and care for your pets. Im free the whole 7 days of the week :) I have 5 furry babies myself, 2 big dog fenced in the backyard and 3 kitties in the house, I also have 3 hermit crabs that I take care of. I have plenty of experience with all kinds of pets even a pig :)
“Kaylee was great! She is very communicative and respectful! My one fur baby was obsessed with her! My other one warms up slowly so she hid most of the time, but Kaylee was patient and let her have her space which I appreciated!!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, and they’ve always been treated as true family members. Beyond caring for my own dog, Thor, I’ve also looked after pets for friends, relatives, and clients, always providing the same level of love, attention, and responsibility. What sets me apart is my ability to adapt to each dog’s unique personality and needs. I’m experienced with: - Puppies (routine, potty training support, and early socialization) - Senior dogs (patience, comfort, slower pace, and gentle care) - Dogs with anxiety or separation needs - Picky eaters or dogs with specific feeding routines - Dog socialization in a safe, controlled home environment - I carefully introduce dogs based on temperament, energy level, and comfort, creating positive and stress-free social experiences when appropriate. - I understand that every dog is different, and I take the time to follow their habits closely so they feel safe, comfortable, and truly at home. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, as I work from work with flexible hours. This allows me to provide consistent supervision, companionship, and attention throughout the day. The idea for my service came from my own experience: I could never find a place where my Maltese, Thor, truly felt at home—always close to someone, sleeping in bed, and never feeling lonely or anxious. That’s why I created a VIP, home-style experience where your dog is treated just like mine—with love, freedom, and respect for their routine. 💕🐾 In my home: Dogs are treated like family They’re welcome on the couch and bed Their routines are followed closely They receive consistent companionship and attention Walks, playtime, and affection are part of the day I provide a calm, structured, and supervised environment and carefully manage each dog’s compatibility to ensure a safe and positive experience. There is absolutely no judgment here—whether your pup is spoiled, has unique habits, follows a very specific routine, or occasionally has indoor accidents (pee or poop). I’m happy to adapt to what makes them feel comfortable and secure. You’ll receive daily updates with photos and videos so you can relax knowing your pup is happy, safe, and loved.
“Haley was great with my dog with special needs. She followed instructions provided updates and showed she really cared. We would definitely use Haley as our sitter again. Thank you!”
About: I’ve been a dog/animal lover my whole life. I recently moved to Tega Cay last summer and have the free time to walk, play, or stay with your dogs. I am experienced and happy to take care of any breed/age of dog. Puppies, active dogs, senior dogs, & disabled dogs are all welcome and will be treated with love and care! I am currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to spend with your fur babies! I am available throughout the week days & nights, as well as weekends. I will make sure your dogs are comfortable and well taken care of. My intentions are to leave you at ease by following all of your instructions carefully!
About: I’ve dog sat for up to 10 days at the owners residence multiple times. I love taking them on walks. Interned at vets office for a semester and had to walk dogs constantly of all sizes and breeds. Free every day. Able to do walks/ let out to potty whenever until 4 everyday. I Can let them out after I get off work if needed. I don’t mind staying the night either. I love my dogs with everything I have. I treat my pets as if they were humans. I love playing with them or just sitting with them and using their body as a pillow or to keep me warm. I am outside almost all day everyday so I love playing fetch or tug or in water.

About: Love dogs? I'm OBSESSED with dogs! Every since I can remember, I've always had a furbaby. I started working at a dog daycare about 5 years ago and gained so many fur nieces and nephews. From administrating medicine to detailed feed instructions, I've done it all. I promise I'll be in your pets top 5 fav list, if you give me the opportunity to care for them. My availability just opened up a lot more so my whole week is open for daily visits, boarding and dog walks. I'm here for all your pet needs! I have a fully fenced in back yard with plenty of play room! There is also a covered deck, in case they need a little rest from all the excitement!
About: I have almost two years of professional experience working in a dog daycare/boarding facility, where we managed groups of up to 20 dogs at a time. Additionally, I managed dogs who boarded with us for any amount of time. This experience also includes dogs with special dietary or medicinal needs. This job also trained me in animal behavior, as well as various dog-handling practices according to different breeds, behaviors, energy levels/temperaments, and environments. Furthermore, I have several clients that I worked closely with while I was at school in Brevard, NC. I would be happy to provide references from any of these experiences if requested! I have the same work schedule every week, which is 10 am-4 pm Tuesday-Saturday every week. I will be available for drop-in visits/dog walking, and pet sitting outside of these hours! I will ensure that your pet is well taken care of each visit, including an overall body wellness check, which I am trained to perform from my professional pet care experience. I am also happy to administer any medication if needed, as I have lots of experience with this. I ensure that the pet is content physically and emotionally, so I do not limit my visits based on time; in other words, I understand that pets (moreso dogs than cats) may feel quite stressed when their owners are away, so I love to spend time with them to build a connection and love on them while I am there.
The median cost per visit for dog sitting in Tega Cay is $20
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Tega Cay
Sydney was great with my 3 dogs, 2 of whom need special care: one is elderly and the other came from a rescue and is very anxious around strangers. Sydney was patient and seemed to have everything in hand. The photos and report cards after each visit were great. It was nice to relax while away, knowing our pups were well cared for.
Excellent! Communication was great, and I always felt confident that my dogs were getting the attention and care they needed. He went above and beyond by even fixing my door handle while I was away. I came home to happy dogs. I highly recommend him and will definitely book with him again!
Victoria provided exceptional care for our fur friend. She genuinely loves animals and treats them as if they were her own. She was attentive, compassionate, and took the time to understand our dog’s needs, routine, and personality. Victoria kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind. Our old lady dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for when I returned home. Victoria also took outstanding care of my home. Everything was clean, tidy, and exactly as I left it. Her professionalism, reliability, and attention to detail were truly impressive. I would not hesitate to book Victoria again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and responsible sitter.
Grace W. came through again while we were out of town. Grace leaves detailed notes and pet observations. We have an elderly 19 year old cat that needs medication and Grace is happy to give her the meds. G. does a good job with our grumpy dog (he really does not like it when we are gone). Our 2 year old loves the pets! We are so glad to have Grace take care of our pets.
I want everyone who ever contacts Rover that the person you need to look after your dog - especially an elderly one like our lab/newfie mix, Jackie - is Jennifer O. I have never seen anyone, with any organization, take the time to tend to Jackie so tenderly and so professionally, at the same time. From the time Jennifer O came to our house for the meet-and-greet - when Jackie instantlu felt a bond with Jen, refusing to leave her side, the whole time Jen was visiting us...to the time when she left him for the final time (when he was obviously happy and contented enough to lie down and take a nap before Jen left, no separation anxiety or other fear of being left alone - 100% on Jackie's time with Jennifer O was focused on him, with fabulous, gratifying results on our end. I am about to hire her for an overnight stay at her house this week, and I DO hope she will be available. I could never find anyone else who bonded with Jackie the way Jen did! Look her up - you'll be glad you did! Rizzie B
Wendi was great! She took the time to take my dogs for extended walks to make sure they felt taken care of. I also made a last minute change to the scheduled services, and she was very gracious and understanding. I would recommend her to take care of your pets while you’re away.

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 Tega Cay 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.

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 Tega Cay 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.
