“Sydney was a Godsent… I’m new to this service and I’m kind of clueless, all I know is that Sydney came through and watched my doggo perfectly. I highly recommend Sydney! I will definitely be calling on 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!!”
“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 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.
“Hilary took very good care of Mady. She established a nice connection with Mady, and kept us informed at all times, through photos and videos. Hilary has been very detailed and responsible. We would highly recommend Hilary for the care of your pets.”
About: (I can do anything after 6 Monday-Friday!!)As a lifelong animal lover, I have extensive experience caring for dogs, starting from childhood. My responsibilities have included dog-sitting, walking, and bathing, as well as scheduling veterinary and grooming appointments for multiple dogs. I am also comfortable caring for cats and dogs of all sizes. As my mom provides weekly housekeeping services, I often assist with pet care when animals are present. My responsibilities include feeding, walking, and, with the owner's consent, bathing the pets. My household includes three animals: two canine companions and one feline friend. The dogs are a Great Pyrenees and a Rottweiler. I provide them with exceptional care. Bella, my Rottweiler, and Maverick, my Great Pyrenees, are both indoor pets.
About: I have watched most of my families dogs, including taking care of my own two puppies. I love walking already, walking dogs just adds a little fun to it I’m currently taking online college courses so I’m free basically all day everyday. Walking dogs also helps with my health and exercise. It also gives me something to do during the day besides homework or house work I have a fenced in back yard as well as 4 friendly dogs. I will follow instructions perfectly. I can provide peace of mind by sending regular photos of a clients dogs on walks or after walks, as well as detailed post-walk reports.
About: I am a former teacher who left the profession. I am building my pet sitting business one sweet creature at a time. I have had my own dog that had to be put down at 8 for medical reasons and it was the worst day of my life. I have sat small and large dogs, cats, and have helped a friend with chickens. I am by no means a chicken expert though. I take pride in what I do. I also have my clearances from teaching, until they expire. I an currently a full time sitter, so I book sits ahead of time. I'm also available for check ins and walking at times as well. I want your pets to not miss a step just because you are not there. We'll do their routines and I would absolutely treat your pet and home with the respect as if they were my own.
“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!”

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!
“Winnie loved having Lily come check in on her. I appreciated Lily being able to come on such short notice after another pet sitter had to cancel. Lily was very communicative, letting me know when she was on the way and checking in during the visit. Winnie is excited to see her again this weekend.”
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.

“Chloe is amazing. Not only is she communicative but so kind! She was great for our meet and greet but she clearly loved on my girl and gave her so much attention. I will be using her again!!”
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: My wife and I have had a dog in our house for over 20 years. We love all dogs and treat them as part of our family. I work from home and am able to be here throughout the day. We give frequent potty breaks and play time as needed. I like to throw the ball daily with my dog before dinner. I have a fenced yard and plenty of space for dogs to run around. We also have plenty of places to walk as needed to get exercise.
About: I've been taking care of pets both mine and family and friends since I was a teenager. Experience with puppies to seniors and everything in between. Love them all! ❤️ I'm currently staying at home with my youngest of 4 and our sweet dog. I am very flexible with schedule. Once school starts will have slightly less availability in the am and afternoon. I have a fenced yard and can walk them daily on private dirt road. I also have a dog at home who will be all too happy for a playmate. Also happy to crate if that is something that is required to maintain schedule and habits.
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!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Tega Cay
I have two large breed dogs that are bonded to one another but uneasy with new people/experiences. Sydney knew how to patiently approach them and took the time to be gentle and earn their trust. She assured me not to be embarrassed, that barking is expected and pointed out the positives about their body language. This put me at ease. Once everyone was nice and calm, they had no choice but to love her! I am so thrilled and relieved by the experience.
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.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Tega Cay 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.
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.
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 .

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.
