“Rowan is punctual, experienced and caring. I have 2 dogs and she cared for them for several days. She was attentative to my detailed requests and the house was clean, when I returned.

About: Hi! I’m Macy, a local dog owner, dog lover, and community event organizer. I regularly host walking, social, and other events around the Summerville/Charleston area, so I love staying active, meeting new people, and being involved in the community. I have a dog of my own and have also cared for dogs for friends, family, and others plenty of times over the years. I understand how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your pup! I’m comfortable with different personalities, routines, and energy levels. Whether your dog loves walks and playtime or would rather relax and get lots of attention, I’m happy to follow their normal routine and make them feel at home. I’m dependable and communicative, and I’m always happy to send photos and updates while you’re away. I’ll treat your dog just like I’d want someone to treat my own! I’m available for overnight stays during the week as long as I’m able to head out early in the morning for work. I’m happy to provide evening care, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention before I leave! On weekends, I have open availability and much more flexibility for overnight stays, drop ins, walks, and extended care. I’m also happy to work with your dog’s normal routine whenever possible! I want your pet to feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away, so I do my best to stick to their normal routine. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medications, and any house rules they’re used to. I’m happy to spend time playing, going on walks, or simply keeping them company depending on their personality and energy level. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away!
“I highly recommend Chloe to watch your pets. She kept me updated the entire time, sent me plenty of photos and videos - and I could tell she genuinely enjoyed my dog's company. She is reliable and trustworthy. We can't wait to have her watch our dog again.”
“Julie was excellent! Our girl Moxie suffers from separation anxiety and Julie knew how to support her while we were gone. In addition, our house was so clean you wouldn’t have known anyone else had been there. Thank you, Julie!”
“Lauren was WONDERFUL with River: she was easy to communicate with and sent me updates every time she stopped by. She even vacuumed my house while I was away. Great and sweet human being: I would use her again!! I always felt comfortable knowing she was reliable and quick to respond.”
About: I am very young and have been a competitive dancer since the age of 3 and i go to college now in Los Angeles for dance and walking dogs, hiking, being active is my favorite thing to do and id do all of those things with an animal before a person lol. I promise you are in the best hands when your animal is with me. I am home from school for break and have so much free time on my hands! I could walk or watch your dog for as long as you need and more! I will have them with me at all times and make sure they are never out of sight. I have their entire schedule on my phone so that nothing is forgotten and of course i give them all my love.
“Angelina is the best! I get so nervous about leaving my puppies and kitties and this is the first time we’ve ever used Rover and had a house sitter, but knowing they were in good hands helped so much. We appreciated the pictures every day and all of things she did for our animals and how she took great care of our house while we were gone.”
About: I have taken care of animals since i was a child! I personally had 4+ dogs/cats at a time growing up since I was 5 years old and even now! As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home the majority of the day and night, which allows me to give consistent attention and supervision. I only step out briefly for school drop-off/pick-up or short errands, typically no more than a few hours total. Your dog will not be left alone for long stretches and will be treated like part of our daily routine, with regular potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of interaction throughout the day. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. We live on 2 fully fenced acres, providing plenty of secure space to run and explore while always supervised. When indoors, pets are part of our family environment — relaxing, playing, or cuddling in a calm and clean home. I carefully follow each dog’s routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions to ensure they feel safe and at ease. My goal is to create a structured but loving environment where your pup feels right at home.
“Jeanette was so good with our dogs!! She left our house spotless and even washed the sheets she used. She was amazing at keeping us updated and sent us cute pictures of our girls. I would definitely recommend having Jeanette (Donna) keep your pups company while out of town.”
“Isis was so sweet and our dogs seemed to really like her! She stayed in our home and took good care of it along with our babies! I absolutely recommend her for anyone looking for a sitter. She kept us updated with their feedings and pictures throughout the day. It made my Fur Baby Mama heart happy! 💙🐾💙”

I work part time everyday, so Ill have ample amount pf time to check in with your fur babies three times a day. Love pets! I live in an apartment so I would not be able to care for them in the home.

I am highly experienced in managing the unique demands of both ends of the age spectrum, from the strict schedules required for training young puppies to the gentle pacing, medication administration, and mobility support essential for senior pet care.

“Sarah spoiled Sullivan in the best way! He got walks, play time & cuddles. When we returned we could tell that he was well taken care of during our travels. She provided multiple updates with photos of Sullivan & she was easy to communicate with & flexible with schedule changes. We would hire Sarah to watch Sullivan again!”
“Abigail was absolutely amazing!!! She stayed at my home overnight, for 4 days, with my two dogs and two cats. She was on time. Updated me every day with my puppers routines and sent photos. One of my dogs has kidney disease and she provided meds, food and treats at the exact times requested. She took them on daily walks and played with them both. It gives me peace of mind knowing that they are well taken care of while I’m away. I have already booked our next trip away with Abigail ❤️”

Brandy is the absolute best!! We have used her many times and will continue to do so! She takes such good care of our sweet dog and is so patient and kind. Our dog is quite a lot so I’m very grateful for her! She was able to accommodate overnight visits for us when we went out of town, which was an absolute lifesaver, I would book Brandy anytime!!!
Cassie was so wonderful with our dog Piper!! I was so grateful to have her with us this past week, I don’t know what I would have done without her. She took great care of Piper, walked her, played with her, cuddled up with her and gave her all the love. So grateful to have met Cassie!
We have a pup with some medical issues and requires medications/ some extra care and we are so happy that Jennifer was able to take care of our pups. She took such great care of them and kept us updated throughout the stay. We could tell our doggos love her and had a blast. We felt at ease with her watching them and definitely recommend her for any of your pet sitting needs!
Mariah was a dream! Her attention to detail and excellent communication kept us assured that our dogs and ducks were in good hands while we were out of town. It was such a relief to find someone trustworthy and responsible to care for our animals and house and we will definitely be singing her praises and contacting her for future trips!
Marisa was great with my boys! I felt totally at ease with her watching them in my home. She was great at communication and sending pictures. I was looking for someone to spend most of thier time in the home with my babies and she was able to do just that. Even went so far as to let me know when she was leaving and when to expect her back. Marisa made being out of town for the holidays stress-free. I would recommend her services to anyone and plan to book with her again!

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Wide Awake walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Wide Awake maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Wide Awake 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
