“Sydney was great with our fur babies. She stopped by prior to vacation for an intro to the pets. She was prompt at every appointment, spent time with each pet and sent numerous photos, throughout the entire trip. I would highly recommend!!”
“Briana was very gracious to accept a sitting schedule last min when a work event popped up suddenly. She took great care of my cat Lacey and let me know if any behavioral changes. It gave me peace of mind to know she was well attended to!”
“Jordan was great! She let all 3 of our dogs out a few times. While our bigger dogs are easy, our small dog is not always. He is scared of new people and Jordan was patient and good with him. We’ll definitely look to use Jordan in the future!”
“Claudia "treated" Hobie as though he were her own! She sent adorable photos, was attentive, punctual, and sincere. I think Hobie has found his favorite sitter! I highly recommend Claudia to anyone in need of a loving sitter!”
“Jeff did so amazing with our pups! They are very energetic and he took them on a long walk each visit to make sure they were burning some of their energy off. He updated us with pictures and how they were doing, we will definitely be using him again!”
“I had Tiffani look after my cat for 5 days. She was always on time, communicated clearly, and took lots of pictures! Really grateful to have Tiffani look after my cat, would highly recommend!!”
About: I’m very responsible in taking care of dogs! I have had two of my own doggies before!I have taken care of many dogs throughout my neighborhood including a Chihuahua, labs, and a husky! I’m very active so if they need some play time I’m your girl!! I am currently a college student at Florida Atlantic University so I am home most of the time to walk them and give them cuddles! I have a neighborhood where everyone is very dog friendly and loving where I could walk him/ her around the block. I could also take them to the dog park!
About: I grew up in a family that always had pets and working dogs mostly mixed breeds and some purebreds. I have had two dogs (one at a time) in the last thirty years. My first dog was a registered black Labrador. My wife gave her to me on our second Christmas together. Her name was Genoa - after the Italian city I studied in as a grad student. She passed away at nineteen years old. I now have a Maltese - Shih Tzu. He loves to play fetch even though he is eleven years old. I do DoorDash part-time, so I have a flexible schedule. I can work around your dog's routine to make sure they're fed and exercised regularly. In my experience, animals feel more comfortable and secure in their usual environment, so the only new element is my presence and how I interact with them. I have cared for dogs that need regular medications and exercise, and I maintain their schedule and activities as closely as possible. This is especially important to me when dealing with dogs who are crated or confined. I want to build a strong relationship with your pet based on trust and consistency.
“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!!”
“I would highly recommend Bryson if you need a drop in. He showed on schedule and gave lots of love and attention to our boy who always enjoyed his visits. We will definitely be using Bryson for our future drop-in needs.”
“Winnie loved seeing Lily again! We appreciate that she keeps us posted with how Winnie’s doing and if she’s eating her medicine. Certainly helps going away when we know Lily can care for our sweet girl.”
“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!”
“Kaitlyn did an amazing job with our two kitties especially accepting the last minute request due to a family emergency. She was willing to go out of her way to accommodate the last minute meet and greet which meant so much to us. Kaitlyn had not given insulin injections before and was game for learning and did it first time like a champ. It felt so good leaving knowing that Kaitlyn was in charge of our fur babies 💗”
About: I grew up with dogs and have cared for them my entire life. I’ve fostered dogs, cared for multiple dogs at once (including having three at the same time), and have years of experience pet sitting for family and friends. I also had a senior dog who I lovingly cared for until she passed at age 18, which gave me experience with older dogs, patience, and attentive care. I’m comfortable with different personalities, routines, and needs, and I always treat pets as if they’re my own. I work Monday-Friday from 7am-2pm, so I’m available for pet care in the afternoons, evenings, and nights during the week. I’m also available on weekends and happy to provide care, walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays depending on your pet’s needs. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines, and any special instructions provided. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection, while also respecting their comfort level and personality. I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so owners feel confident their pets are well cared for.
“Julia was great with our GSD! She arrived on time for our meet and greet as well as all check ins, and provided us with excellent updates. She was very thorough in asking us about feeding and medicine needs. Zoe warmed right up to her and can’t wait for her next visit! Thank you Julia!”
About: I’ve had the opportunity to take care of dogs that have hearing, vision, and temperament problems. I’ve never had an issue not being able to walk a dog. And if you haven’t ordered dog, I will have no issue helping the dog get stepped or into a car if needed. I love all dogs and I personally own a large dog and a medium sized dog. I’m currently work full-time so I won’t be completely available all the time, but I’ll make time for your pups. But I’m a pretty flexible person. I don’t offer for the animals to be kept at my house. If I were to have a dog stay at my home or if I had to go to a clients home, I would just make sure to have all of my things together as well as ground rules with the owner.
About: I work part-time at a doggie daycare (best job EVER); where I care for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments—from playful puppies to seniors, and from super social pups to those who need a little more patience and understanding. My hands-on experience has taught me how to read body language, manage multiple dog’s play safely, and provide individualized care for each dog’s unique personality. Whether your pup needs structured walks, calm companionship, or just someone to keep their routine steady while you’re away, I’m here to help. Whether it’s drop-in visits, overnight stays, or in-home boarding, I plan my pet sitting schedule around my work to make sure your pet receives the attention, exercise, and love they deserve. I always allow time for feeding, walks, medication (if needed), and quality one-on-one time. If your pet has a specific routine or care needs, I’m happy to work with you to make sure everything stays consistent while you’re away. I’ll come to your home for drop-ins, walks, or overnight stays, helping maintain your pet’s normal routine in their own space. This is ideal for pets who are more relaxed at home or who need a schedule and do not like change. Some dogs suffer from severe anxiety being in new territory so sometimes it’s best to have your pup stay in their home to make it easier on them. Of course the same goes for senior pups unless they require substantial care I have the means to actually stay in home and cater to their daily routine as I’ve had several jobs doing so. In my home I offer comfortable, personalized care for dogs or cats who enjoy a cozy, quiet space away from home. I have a dedicated space just for pet guests, where I can safely store their belongings (beds, toys, food, etc.) and give them a calm space to settle in. My home is clean, pet-friendly, and set up with all the essentials for safe and happy boarding, including food/water bowls, toys, and pet-safe cleaning products. If your dog is crate-trained, please provide their crate so they have a familiar, secure space to relax in. I want them to feel as comfortable and at ease as possible during their stay. If they are not crate trained and are a bed cuddler; please just let me know. I don’t mind as mine sleeps with me as well; so don’t ever feel judged based on you letting your dogs sleep with you.
About: Since I was young, I’ve had a special connection with animals. I grew up in a home with dogs and cats, and over time, I became the go-to person for friends and family whenever they needed someone to care for their pets while they traveled. For over 10 years, I’ve looked after dogs of all breeds and sizes, from energetic puppies to senior dogs requiring special care. I’ve also cared for cats, learning to respect their unique personalities and needs. My experience has taught me the importance of patience, love, and routine to ensure every pet feels safe and happy under my care. I work from home, so I have plenty of time and a flexible schedule to care for your pets. Whether they need walks, playtime, or just companionship, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable and well cared for. I’ve always had a deep love for animals and truly enjoy spending time with them. Caring for pets isn’t just a job for me—it’s something I’m passionate about. I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just some extra cuddles, your furry friend will receive plenty of attention and a home-like environment where they can feel happy and relaxed.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Tega Cay
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

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Tega Cay is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $26 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 4,871 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Tega Cay. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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.

- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
