“Thank you as always for taking such great care of my boys! The photos you capture of them are always hilarious and I know I can trust they are getting the very best care while I’m away 💕”
About: I love animals and the energy they bring to a space. I have a cat now, have had several cats over the past 15 years and family cats and dogs growing up. I have either lived with roommates dogs or have friends or relatives with dogs that I consider family. I love interacting with all animals and have a respect and understanding for their needs and care. A walk in the backyard, down the street, time at the beach, going on a hike or just spending time inside, all seem like good options to me! I am respectful, honest, kind and compassionate. I am an Artist focusing in the Visual, Performing and Healing Arts. I will take good safe care of your pet as if they were part of my family. Looking forward to meeting you!
About: I’ve owned cats for 20+ years. Our last cat had diabetes so I have experience with feeding schedules and giving shots. I have had both indoor and outdoor cats. Am comfortable with either. I work part time and have flexible availability. I can accommodate both weekdays and weekends. Depending on the location, I might be able to accommodate more than two visits a day if needed. I’m looking to watch in client’s home and would be respectful of client’s requests. Cats prefer their own space so this is why I’m settling up my services this way.
About: I work at an emergency vet and have ample shelter experience, meaning that I love to take care of any type of animal. Have cats? Amazing! Have dogs? Also amazing! Have Chickens? Also also amazing! Whether your dog is super social or has stranger danger—I will gladly take care of any breed of dog. As previously mentioned I do love stranger danger pups—with my shelter experience, I’m incredibly skilled and patient with going at their pace. If you do have a stranger danger dog, I will gladly meet up as many times as needed for them to be comfortable with me free of charge before services are needed :) I work nights, so I have a pretty flexible schedule! If there’s any special care needed, I would be happy to accommodate and chat! I’m very respectful of other’s homes—I will cater to the animal’s needs! Doesn’t matter if they have a unique feeding routine or if they’re high energy. I’m also educated on resource guarding, so just let me know what’s needed! :)
About: Ive lived with cats and dogs, taking care of my friends and family's pets throughout. I can give medications to your pets no problem if they need. I work full time, I have Mondays and Tuesdays off if you want the most attentive care. I will always make your pets feel safe and cared for no matter the day of the week. I have a cat at home, hes neutered so nothing to worry about there. In house or at yours I will keep your pet children entertained.
About: I have taken care of 25+ dogs and cats in the past 3 years, to include in home/overnight pet- and house-sitting, dog walking, brushing, litter box maintenance and pill-based medication administration. When taking care of other people’s pets, I provide the attention and care that I was seeking for my own cat and dog (who, sadly, are no longer with me.) My top priority is the safety of the pet, and to that end, I take no risks with the animals in my care – food protocols are carefully followed, walks are always on leash and doors are carefully monitored to ensure indoor cats remain indoors. With my pet care services, you will have: • Happy, safe and well-cared-for pets • A clean and orderly (tidy) home • Clear and timely communication • Regular and frequent updates (with photos and videos of your pets) • Reliable and dependable pet and home care As a recently-retired educator, I have a very flexible schedule, with plenty of time for your pets. I am available for daily walks, overnight or weekend house sits (your house or mine) and vacation sits (1-4 weeks is typical). When starting a new relationship with a client and their pet(s), I schedule a brief ‘pop over’ appointment where I can meet the animal(s) in the presence of their humans. This helps everyone involved – pets and humans – get to know me and feel comfortable with me before I take on the responsibility for the pet. I take care to be calm around the pets I sit - I let both cats and dogs take their time to warm up to me (come to me when they are ready, sniff my hands, my person, my things). I am careful when feeding animals - particularly dogs - giving them space. I follow the pet's routine - if they sleep on the bed, I let them sleep on the bed; if they like to go in and out frequently, I let them go in and out frequently. I try to make them as comfortable as I can, in their human's absence.
About: I have cared for dogs, cats, kittens, and puppies for most of my life. Ever since I was 3 years old, I’ve grown up surrounded by animals and developed a strong love and understanding for pet care. Over the past year, I’ve also gained experience caring for a senior dog, including providing patience, attention, and daily support for their specific needs. In addition, I enjoy working with puppies and have experience teaching basic training and new tricks. I treat every pet like family and always strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I am currently working part-time, which gives me plenty of time to care for your pets and provide them with the attention they deserve. I am available on both weekends and weekdays, with the most flexibility in the mornings. I also have availability during some afternoons and evenings, allowing me to accommodate a variety of schedules and pet care needs. I always make sure pets are in a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment, whether in my home or a client’s home. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I pay close attention to pets at all times to ensure their safety and well-being, and I make sure they receive plenty of love, exercise, and attention while in my care. I also keep spaces clean, secure, and pet-friendly so owners can feel confident that their pets are being cared for like family.
About: I grew up on a farm, so I've had experience with a variety of animals, especially dogs! My family has always had at least one dog, all with varying sizes. I've endured it all from the ankle biters, the sweetest pitbulls and border collies, to the greatest of the danes. I'm currently a college student, so my evenings and weekends are free! Being stuck in a classroom gives me the fuel I need to go on a walk with your dog or experience (safe) zoomies with your cat. Summer time is usually great because it means more time outdoors for all of us! I'm currently unable to house your pets, but I can be with them in their favorite place- whether that be your home or on a walk!
“Aaron is awesome! He put up with my blabbering about my dogs during our meet and greet, and was very polite and kind. He didn’t mind my dogs’ high energy and excitement. He took very cute pictures of them while he was looking after them, and he kept me updated on how they were doing. He’s an absolute delight; I can’t recommend him enough!”
“Jennifer has a heart for animals and did a good job caring for my bunnies. She left their pens super clean which was definitely going above and beyond! She was also willing to do an extra check on them when I was concerned for them. She asked good questions about their care and spent a lot of time with them.”
“Avital, you took such great care of our Betty! Thank you for your pictures, communication, and thoughtfulness. We are excited to have you back with Betty next weekend! Thank you!!!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 646 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Waterboro. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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 .
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 .

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.
