“Grace was super caring and patient with our two girls while we were away! Keeping up with 3 check-ins a day is not easy, but she made sure the pups got some free time. Definitely would recommend!”
“Emily was great looking after our 4 dogs! She always sent updates & photos after every visit. I felt completely comfortable leaving our pets in her care. We will be rebooking in the future!”
“Tori was great with our three dogs and did everything we had asked for while we were out of town. She was responsive to any message we sent her and we would trust her to care for our dogs again!”
About: I have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for animals, beginning with early exposure to veterinary clinics where I spent time shadowing and learning animal handling and care from a young age. This foundation grew into professional veterinary technician experience, where I worked with dogs and cats of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs, including senior pets, puppies, and animals requiring daily medications or specialized care. In addition to my veterinary background, I volunteered with a service dog organization where I raised and trained future guide dogs. This experience strengthened my skills in leash training, socialization, crate training, and positive reinforcement methods while working with high-expectation working dogs in real-world environments. I also actively continue dog training as a personal passion and have earned three AKC Trick Dog titles with my own dog. Because of this, I’m very comfortable working with energetic dogs, reinforcing basic obedience, and providing structured enrichment during walks and visits. I currently share my home with two dogs and a cat, so I understand day-to-day pet care, multi-pet dynamics, and the importance of consistency and routine. As a pet owner myself, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. My goal is always to provide safe, reliable, and attentive care whether that means a structured walk, a drop-in visit, medication administration, or simply making sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I structure my day around consistency and flexibility. I am able to accommodate morning, midday, and afternoon visits, as well as regular walking schedules and drop-in care throughout the week. Because I have a flexible schedule, I can prioritize pet care visits and ensure pets receive attention, exercise, feeding, and companionship on time. I’m used to building my day around routines, whether that’s scheduled walks, feeding times, or medication needs. I value clear communication and reliability, and I make it a priority to be punctual and consistent with every visit so pets feel comfortable and cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their normal routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and secure while their owners are away. I follow all instructions closely regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any specific care needs. During drop-in visits, I make sure pets receive attention, fresh water, feeding if needed, potty breaks, playtime, and any required medication. I also take time to provide companionship and help pets feel calm and comfortable before leaving. For dog walking, I focus on safe, structured walks that match the dog’s energy level and needs. I pay close attention to leash manners, surroundings, and each dog’s comfort level to ensure a positive experience. I always treat each home with respect, keep things clean and organized, and provide updates so owners feel informed and confident while they are away.
“I’m so grateful for Caitlyn she communicated diligently about our babies. The updates and pictures made us feel so comfortable on our first time away from our babies. She showed great care and compassion towards our 3 kittens and remember all the instructions. Thank you again for excellent service!”
About: I am a dog lover. I have a dog of my own! I love taking care of dogs and I am very familiar with how to take care of them! Hi! I play soccer in Spartanburg, SC. I am looking to pet sit and dog walk in between my practices and school work. I respond quickly and am flexible! I am very respectful of the areas I’m in. I always leave places cleaner than I left them. I just want to make sure the animals feel loved and safe!
About: I’ve had animals my entire life. Currently, my husband and I have three cats and two pittie mix dogs. I’m comfortable with cats and dogs of all breeds and sizes and happy to give medicine as needed. At home I’m the nail trimmer, bath giver, treat smuggler, and all around favorite human! Or at least I like to think so! I’m currently looking for my next career move so I have more open availability than most. I do have five animals of my own, so their schedule is taken into consideration when I am accepting jobs on here. While I’m at your home, I’ll follow your instructions for care to the T! I’m very particular with my own animals, so I will be just as careful with yours. I’m aware of how sneaky some pets can be with doors and I have become a ninja getting in and out of my own home as to not let a critter slip out into the garage or out into the yard.
“Very pleased with the care that James gave my dog! He showed up on time, followed everything I asked, and made the whole experience stress-free. It really put me at ease knowing my dog was in good hands. I would definitely use him again!”
“Frances (Grace) was great to agree to do a drop in visit on short notice and to come by and meet my fur babes beforehand. My dogs who can be standoffish took to Grace pretty quick! Appreciate that I felt totally comfortable with knowing Grace was going to be checking in on my my dogs while I was at work!!!!”
About: I truly love spending time with all kinds of pets! Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and play with their animals. I know that dogs need their exercise and outdoor time, while cats might need a clean litter box and some interactive toy play. Whether your dog needs a long walk to burn off energy or your cat needs some gentle chin scratches, I am reliable, attentive, and will always send plenty of photo updates! I currently work morning and occasional afternoon shifts, typically from 5 AM–1 PM or 12 PM–5 PM. My schedule still allows me plenty of flexibility to provide attentive and reliable pet care. Outside of my work hours, I am available for walks, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I’m happy to work with your pet’s usual routine and make sure they receive the care, companionship, and attention they need while you’re away. I strictly follow all security and care instructions to keep your pets and property safe. I am a highly responsible and communicative sitter. I'll send you frequent photo and text updates so you never have to wonder how your furry friend is doing while you're away.
“Isabella was a terrific choice to care for our five cats. We appreciated her efforts to ensure our more shy, older cats were fed, while our younger cats devoured their dinner. She definitely met all of our cat sitting needs while we were away from home. We would gladly have Isabella return.”
“Skyler was absolutely amazing while watching our dog and cat! She took such great care of them and gave us peace of mind while we were away. We received updates, photos, and could tell our pets were happy, comfortable, and well-loved the entire time. When we came home, our babies were relaxed and content. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her!!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I currently have a dog of my own, so I understand that every dog has their own routine, quirks, and needs. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs! Whether that means a long walk, playing, or simply giving them some company and attention. My goal is to make your dog feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. I work Monday–Friday from 7 AM–3 PM, so I’m available for pet care in the afternoons and evenings. I also have weekend availability, so feel free to reach out and I’ll do my best to accommodate your schedule! I have one friendly, crate trained and house trained dog who gets along well with other animals, as well as two cats. I’m comfortable caring for pets with different routines and personalities, and I’ll follow your instructions closely to keep your pet safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’ll also keep you updated while you’re away so you know how your pet is doing.
About: I’ve always had dogs and a few cats on and off most of my life. I am a medical assistant of 20 years looking for a change. I was giving insulin to a friends dog daily while she was at work. I would love to help you with your fur baby !!! Recently moved to South Carolina and not working right now so I do have the time to care for your dog or cat. I’m pretty flexible !! I currently do not have a dog. I can walk or jog with your dog or just sit and keep your dog happy with those behind the ear scratches !! I can give medicine and injections if necessary.
“Colby did an AMAZING job looking after our 2 dogs and cat. They were so happy to see her every-time she showed up and the communication/pictures about our animals was excellent. I would highly recommend her to watch after any of your animals!”

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.

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.
