About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong experience caring for all kinds of animals — from goats and pigs to dogs and cats! I’ve been around animals since I was a kid, so I understand their different personalities and needs. I’m patient, gentle, and always make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I have experience with puppies, seniors, and pets that need a little extra attention or care. Whether it’s sticking to a routine, giving medication, or helping with basic training, I make sure your pet gets the same love and consistency they’re used to at home. I’m currently a stay at home mom to a 4 year old so I am available at any time of the day and any day or the week! When caring for pets, my main focus is making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable — whether they’re in my home or yours. I always take time to get to know each pet’s routine, personality, and preferences so I can keep things as familiar as possible. In your home, I respect your space and follow your instructions carefully — from feeding schedules to walks and playtime. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, along with updates and photos to keep you at ease. If I’m caring for pets in my own home, I provide a calm, pet-friendly environment with lots of love, snuggles, and supervision. I treat every animal like part of the family and make sure they’re happy, safe, and well cared for at all times.
“Jared and his wife do a magnificent job with our lab. They send lots of pictures and are in touch as needed. My dog gets a lot of attention when she visits, and she loves to go there. They are the best!”
“Veronica and her husband did a great job taking care of Pickles. They were willing to do a meet and greet with me before I booked to make sure our pets would mesh. My dog is usually timid with new dogs, but that was not the case here. She fit right in immediately. They send me lots of pictures, keep me updated, and my dog comes home happy and exhausted!”
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. I was raised around them from the time I was 5 years old and started learning how to care for the animals around me. I have a Husky of my own that is my bestest friend and a big baby that is super spoiled. I would love to make your pet feel just as loved with me as they are with you! I work from home so I would be able to provide optimal care for your fur baby. I also have completed vet assistant school and have worked as a volunteer at the humane society multiple times throughout my life. I am currently working remotely so I am able to take care of your pets really whenever. I am pretty open to any schedule that you may have!! I can easily crate your dog if needed, I also have a 4 month old husky puppy to keep them company that is extremely friendly and loves to play.

About: I’m a nursing student with a flexible schedule who loves dogs and making some extra tuition money! My husband works from home so your pet will have someone around most of the time. I would love to help you with your sitting needs anyway that I can! I am familiar with the basics of training, bathing, feeding, walking, etc… I’ve trained and raised 4 beautiful labs so far. I look forward to meeting you soon!😊 My schedule is usually pretty flexible but every week does look different for me. I’m happy to work around your needs and make time in my schedule for you. I love to send pictures of the pets when I arrive at the location. It ensures to you that I have arrived and am doing what you have requested! I’m open to texting while I work so if you need anything additional, like a package brought inside or I have a quick question, that will help to make everything run smoothly.
“Ashtan was so amazing from beginning to end. She kept me updated about my dog and sent pictures over to me. She is such a sweet and loving person. I was so happy that I chose her to dogsit our fur baby. We will definitely book again with her!! Thank you ❤️❤️”
“Dorothy & Thomas took care of our 3 cavaliers and it went well. Our pups enjoyed their space outside with the large fenced in backyard and also enjoyed hanging out with their dog Pepper. Pepper was friendly and sweet with our little ones. Thank you!”
About: Worked for Cleveland park animal hospital for 6 years. Took 4 years of animal care in school. Trained in feeding, walking, and handling any sized animals. I have pretty much open availability! Sunday through Saturday! I no longer work full time and wanted to care for animals on my own schedule! my top priorities are safety, comfort, and routine. I take time to learn each pet’s needs, personality, and any special instructions so I can keep their day feeling familiar and stress-free.
“This is our first experience boarding our girl. She has some pretty severe separation anxiety so we were obviously worried about leaving her. This was a test day of daycare just to see how she reacted. Joy and her daughters could not have been more accommodating and understanding. They took the time to meet with us to explain the property and the process prior to the daycare visit and the day of the visit went very well! She seemed to fit right in and even took a nap on one of the girls beds (a level of spoiling we only ever expected her to get at home)! We're now more than comfortable with the fact that she'll be right at home at Joy's during our upcoming trip!”
“Cristina is very sweet and you can tell she really loves dogs. We had a small language barrier but we were so glad to find her on short notice! Thank you for taking great care of our babies Cristina!”
About: I will love your pets as if they are my own. I will care, feed, protect and nurture them while you are unavailable. I have a big fenced house, so they will have lots of room to play and relax. For my cat owners, I own a very docile, loving, calm kitty of my own and he loves new friends. We will be in constant communication because I know being away from our furry kids is a little nerve wrecking. Please don't hesitate to ask any questions or anything I haven't covered. I will fulfill requests or any special demands. Your pet will be in good hands for the time being. If frequent visits or walking is what you need, I am available for that too. I know some great doggy parks where they'll have lots of fun. I am currently not working so they will have my undivided attention and we will get them exercised throughout the day because just like us, movement is essential. I have a fenced yard, 2 little guys that your dog can play with. I have lots of toys and space to interact with your 4 legged best friend.
“I was nervous to leave my puppy with a sitter for the first time but Aneisy and her family were great! My pup came home happy and clearly well taken care of. And Aneisy made me feel at ease and communicated very well. I will happily book again in the near future.”
“Beaux LOVES Cam. She’s very good with him. From day one she has been very understanding, and made us feel comfortable leaving Beaux with her. She’s filled in last minute when we needed care. Cam also sends lot of pictures and updates. We definitely will keep booking with her!!”
About: I have 10+ years of taking care of pets. I have experience with puppies and all their playfulness through seniors that need extra attention and medications. Your fur babies and mine are my passion! I have a very flexible schedule and have plenty of time to play and care for your pets during the day, evenings or overnight stays. I have a fenced back yard and two friendly pups that would love to play with yours. I can also crate if needed. Giving medications is also an expertise of mine as I had a 14 yr old fur baby that suffered from heart disease and needed lots of daily medicine.

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 Watts Mills 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.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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 SC 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 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.
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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 289 sitters in Watts Mills, 86% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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.
