“We had a bit of an unusual Rover request, and Lena was absolutely wonderful! We’re working with a trainer to help our shy dog, Bonzo, feel more comfortable with new people, and we needed someone he had never met to come over so we could practice having a “stranger” in the house. Lena was so kind, patient, and completely willing to follow our trainer’s instructions and go at Bonzo’s pace. They made the whole experience incredibly easy and were so sweet with him. We’re very grateful they were willing to help us out and would absolutely recommend them!”
“Rachel is great with our one year old kitten and feral adult cat. When she first met our indoor kitten, the kitten came out and greeted her and by the end of the meet and greet session was rubbing on Rachel’s legs. It makes me feel so comforted to know our little girl will be taken care of.”
About: I've been caring for dogs and cats for the last 4 years. With cats, I’m well experienced in doing the regular tasks of maintaining cleanliness of their spaces while ensuring they have enough food and water, as well as distributing heart medications orally. With dogs, I have provided both dropping in for walks as needed and weekend-long house sitting. I'm adaptable and easy-going, ready to provide care for your pet's specific needs. I'm currently working full-time Monday-Thursday, so I have weekend pet sitting or drop-in availability. I can also do weeknight drop-ins. I follow the guidelines set by the owner in terms of how to best care for their pet within their home. I also make it a point to send updates on how your pet is doing and what they're up to, specifically for multi-day pet sitting.
“Sara was a phenomenal cat sitter, and we were so grateful that she was able to accept our booking the same day after our original sitter canceled. She took wonderful care of our two cats while we were away, they warmed up to her quickly, and we truly appreciate everything she did! Thank you so much, Sara!”
About: I have years of pet sitting experience and I absolutely love all animals, especially cats and dogs. I currently work as a physical therapy tech in the West Ashley area. I rarely go out of town and I live close to my job, so I am free for boarding on weekends and weekday check-ins depending on distance! My home has a backyard and is within a close distance to a walking trail. My house is spacious enough for small to medium sized dogs, and possibly older large dogs.
“Christina was so good about responding quickly to a last minute need for help. She took great care of our dog and also sent us lots of pictures and a short update each time she dropped in. We really appreciated the pictures and notes as they gave us piece of mind to see him looking happy! We will certainly be reaching out to Christina again!”
About: Hi! My name is Ariana and I just graduated from CofC. I work full time as a barista right now. I absolutely love dogs and cats and would 100% have some if my housing allowed me to. Growing up I took care of 5 dogs, lots of cats, and a bird! On top of that I have pet sit and house sit for family friends and neighbors for about 12 years. Since moving to Charleston I haven’t been able to get a dog/cat because of where I live so I am always very eager to help out with your animals! If interested don’t hesitate to reach out! Thank you and I hope to meet you and your furry friends soon! I typically work mid shifts or closing shifts so my mornings are free. I don’t work Mondays, Thursdays or Fridays too so I have plenty of time to spend time with your sweet animals! I always will make sure to follow my client’s specific instructions for their animal. I want to ensure comfort for the animal and their owner.
About: I’m a huge animal lover with years of pet sitting experience! I grew up with 3 dogs, 3 cats, and a parrot, and I’ve cared for animals of all sizes from Great Danes to Chihuahuas. I have experience with energetic puppies and kittens as well as senior dogs and cats who need extra patience and care. I also have years of ongoing experience with birds! I have a conure of my own and have cared for other birds, so I understand their unique personalities and care needs. I’d love the opportunity to care for your fur or feathered baby! I’m currently finishing school online, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet the care, attention, and love they deserve! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your baby, so I’m happy to provide references and frequent updates to give you peace of mind. I am always willing to accommodate to each pet’s routine, needs, and home environment, and I’m happy to accommodate any preferences or instructions that help you and your pet feel comfortable.
About: I volunteer at the Charleston Animal Society and work primarily with dogs. I have worked with staff on training dogs as well as making enrichment toys. I have worked for different families to help care for their dogs while they are at work or out of town. I currently volunteer at the Charleston Animal Society but that is flexible so I can make time to be available to take care of your pets. Since I have 2 cats, I would care for client's pets in their home. I treat all animals as if they are my own and how I want my cats cared for when I am out of town.
“Janessy is very easy to communicate with and did a great job checking on my cats while I was on vacation. I got daily pictures and updates. I would definitely book with Janessy again!”
“Brianna was wonderful with our sassy Bengal, Catimir. This was our first time using a pet sitter. Brianna was professional and very responsive to our messages. She is a true animal lover and it shows! We highly recommend her to anyone needing pet-sitting services. We will definitely rebook with her in the future. Thank you Brianna! Mr. Mir misses you already!”
“Elizabeth took excellent care of Loui and all of us! She was on time every time, spent all the time giving him exercise and love, and sent detailed reports and pictures. I couldn’t ask for better and I look forward to continuing our relationship with her!”
About: I have three pups of my own: Leon, Zelda and Finn! They are my babies and I love them to death. They love and play great with other dogs as well! I have always had at least two dogs growing up, and I have a life long experience with teaching and caring for them. I have a huge passion when it comes to animals, especially dogs. All of my dogs have been rescued, and I love to give them the happiest life that I can. We have plenty of love and fun to share with your fur babies if you want to reach out, we'll set up a date! Thank you so much for your consideration, and I look forward to hearing from you very soon! I am working part time from home so your fur babies will be under my care at all times. I am a firm believer in playing hard and sleeping harder so that will pretty much take care of the schedule! ☺️ I have a fenced in back yard and three dogs to keep yours company. Also trained with crating and accommodating special needs at your request
About: I have many years of experience watching, walking, and caring for dogs of all sizes and breeds! Miss having a dog of my own and looking to care for others dogs before I have my own :) I love to have any and all dogs around! Please reach out with any specific accommodations you are looking for I currently work from home and am free to walk to dog sit during the day, night, and most weekends. My schedule is usually flexible I live in a house with a spacious yard to hang out in. No fence around the yard so would keep the dog leashed if needed!
About: Dogs have always had a special place in my heart, and I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I’m dependable, patient, attentive, and happy to follow your dog’s normal routine, including walks, meals, potty breaks, playtime and plenty of affection. I know every dog has their own personality, comfort level and little quirks, and I’ll take the time to get to know yours. I’ll treat your dog with the same love, care and attention I would want for my own. My schedule varies, which gives me flexibility for walks, drop-in visits and pet sitting throughout the week. I’m happy to work with your dog’s normal routine and will communicate clearly about my availability so you always know your pup is covered. Your dog’s safety and comfort come first. I’ll carefully follow your instructions, keep doors, gates and leashes secure, and respect your home and your dog’s normal routine. I’m patient with dogs who need extra time to warm up, and I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, affection and care while you’re away.
“Sarah is so amazing with our puppy. She has so much experience from raising her own dog, and is very reliable and easy-going. She worked on training with our dog and they got so much activity together. Would highly recommend and will definitely use again”
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Woodhaven
Kathy was wonderful with my two cats. She was so attentive and really seemed to care about them and me! This was the first time I used Rover and will most certainly book with Kathy again! She really exceeded my expectations with her check ins, photos and how clean she left everything! I am very impressed!
Lauren was incredible!! She left such a thorough update about my girl and made time to walk her but also hang out. She made sure to tell how Masie was when she got there and how she seemed when she left, and just out my mind at ease about how my girl was doing while I was at work. I really really appreciated her and her flexibility and thoroughness!
Anna is the absolute best pet caretaker ever. She will truly, deeply love your pets as her own, and they will feel the same way about her! She goes the extra mile in every way - love, time, attention, care, advice - I can’t say enough good things. My only fear is that my pets are going to be disappointed when we get back home and they don’t get to be with Anna anymore!
I was quite pleased to find Lindsay! I felt comfortable and encouraged after interviewing her, and quickly decided that she would be my best person for my cat sitting... We were comfortable talking and when she visited Tosh and me, she was very careful, adroit, and comprehensive about what he might need, and how best to care for him! She even read all the cat care articles I left for her! She was responsive to my texts and filled me in with pictures of assurance... That made me relax more! Most of all, I truly appreciate her empathy and understanding as this necessary trip was the first time we had been away from each other in years! I can highly recommend her as a part of Rover care!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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 .
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.
