“This was the first time using Rover and leaving my dog alone overnight. Lena was fantastic, on time, and took good care of him. We were worried, but we had no need to be!”
“Caroline was the first sitter I booked on Rover, and she IS the standard! She was fast to respond to my last-minute request, she communicated thoughtfully and precisely, and she provided excellent, loving care for my girl while I was away. I have full trust in her and will definitely book her again!”
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.
About: I can provide dependable care for your pets while you are enjoying your time away from home. I pay close attention to routines, and individual needs. As of right now I am available most weekends, from early Friday afternoon till Sunday..Or during the week I can do evening walks if needed. I prefer to take care of pets in their own home. In their own home they feel more comfortable and safe, less stress on them.
About: Hello! My name is Jeremy, and dogs have been a constant, joyful part of my life for as long as I can remember. Over the past 40+ years, I have raised, trained, and cared for many dogs. I understand that your dogs aren't just pets—they are members of your family, and they deserve a sitter who brings stability, maturity, and genuine experience to the table. I have a flexible schedule and I'm willing to do drop in visits and walks. Available on most weekdays! Look forward to petting your pups! With over 40 years of dog ownership, I treat every dog in my care with the same love and protective care that I give to my own family. When you trust me with your pet, you are getting the maturity, reliability, and judgment of a seasoned, lifelong dog handler.
“Isaiah was great! He was reliable and got along great with my cats. I ended up fostering another cat temporarily, and Isaiah did a great job with that cat too. I’ll definitely hire him again when I go out of town for New Years!”
About: Over the years, I’ve looked after pups with all types of needs, and I pride myself on being a calm, reliable anchor for them. If you have a high-energy puppy who needs endless patience, consistent boundaries, and help reinforcing their training, I’m ready to jump right in and keep them safely engaged. On the other end of the spectrum, I have a deep soft spot for senior dogs and dogs with intense medical needs. I know how critical it is to stick to strict medication schedules, monitor health cues, and provide the gentle, slow-paced comfort an older or healing dog requires. From puppy zoomies to senior snuggles, I treat every dog who walks through my door with the exact same love, respect, and specialized attention I would give my own family. From Monday through Thursday, I work from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM, which actually creates a fantastic, predictable routine for the dogs in my care. Before I head out in the morning, we kick off the day with an early walk, breakfast, and plenty of playtime to burn off that initial morning energy. When I leave at 10, the pups are usually content, tired out, and ready for a long, peaceful mid-day nap. I head straight home right after work at 4:00 PM, and the rest of the evening is completely dedicated to them! We head out for a long afternoon walk, work on any puppy training or mental stimulation games, and wind down with dinner and couch snuggles. Fridays through Sundays, my schedule is completely wide open. This means weekends are packed with extra adventures, longer trail walks, or just a lot of dedicated, undivided attention for senior dogs who love having a human around all day long. Because I balance my time this way, your dog gets the perfect mix of a structured daily rhythm and a companion who is fully present when it matters most. I am incredibly lucky to live right next to a dog park, the beach, and beautiful walking trails, which means our daily routine is packed with fresh air and variety. For the high-energy pups and social butterflies, having the dog park just steps away is perfect for playing fetch, running off leash, and socializing safely. For the dogs who love to explore, sniff, or splash around, the beach is our playground for morning or sunset strolls along the shore. The nearby walking trails are my absolute secret weapon, especially for senior dogs or pups who get easily overwhelmed by loud noises or big crowds. These quiet, shaded paths are perfect for peaceful, low-stress decompression walks where your dog can take their time, sniff to their heart's content, and get some wonderful mental stimulation in a calm environment. Back inside my home, safety and comfort are my top priorities. After a fun outing—and a quick "paws, sand, and trail mud" cleanup routine—my space is fully set up for total relaxation. Whether they prefer sprawling out on a cool floor after a beach run, curling up in a cozy dog bed, or claiming a spot right next to me on the couch, they will have free reign to relax exactly how they like best.
About: I have loved all breeds of dogs my whole life. My love for cats is newer, but just as strong! I'm a flexible, dedicated pet sitter. I will treat not only your fur babies, but also your house, with the utmost respect. Dogs and cats have always been more than pets to me. I look forward to getting to know what makes your pet unique! I'm currently working part-time while studying to go to nursing school! My schedule is full, but my time with your pets will never feel rushed. I have two fur babies of my own, so I know how important it is to give them the time they deserve. Whatever your routine, I will execute it. I'm comfortable with crate training and mental stimulation activities for your pups! If your pets prefer outside time, but you have no backyard, I have a large backyard they could come run around in. I'm happy to do multiple walks a day, if my schedule permits, or one long walk at the end of the day!
“Julia is the best!! Took excellent care of our puppy, was super responsive, and sent cute photos from their walk. Went above and beyond in making sure all needs were met. Would highly recommend and will definitely use 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.
“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!”
“Reagan did a great job. She helped care for my very geriatric cat and her particular needs. She kept her thriving for the 1.5 weeks I was away. Would re-hire and would recommend.”
“Alexis was extremely dependable and helpful, especially when it came to assisting with cleaning up after Crypto. She didn’t hesitate to step in when needed and handled everything with care and professionalism. Her reliability and willingness to help made a big difference, and I’m very grateful for her support.”
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!
“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”
About: I’ve had family dogs almost my entire life. When my latest girl, Jaina, passed after 14 years together, I shifted to pet sitting rather than full-time ownership. My friends, neighbors and roommates can always rely on me to watch their pups whenever they have work or travel plans! I currently live with a beautiful Doberman and am his primary care giver when my roommate travels for business. Our favorite activity is an adventure to Folly Beach where we walk, look at the ocean, and visit the dog friendly restaurants for his doggie-menu treats & pup cups. I’m also a Gold Star Rated Uber Driver that allows riders to bring their animals with them on trips. I attend church in downtown Charleston every Sunday so my Sundays are reserved for me. For extended (week+), I am willing to have a discussion to fulfill needs on that day. I also work as a freelance/contract bartender. While I have no set schedule, days that I accept those gigs will likely result in an 8-10 hours stretch where I would be away from sitting. Give me a shout and I look forward to meeting you and your pups! I work part time as a bartender and with special events but on a contract/freelance basis. I’m also a Gold Star Rated Uber driver with an active setting that allows riders to travel with their animals. I attend church on Sundays so I tend to leave that day free for myself. I make my own schedule which allows for a lot of flexibility. I care for my roommate’s Doberman when he travels for business. We go on walks, to the park, the beach and play in the backyard. I give him his meds twice a day. His water is in a fountain bowl and his food dispenser on a timer. I refill as needed. He is an Alpha so I won’t be offering to watch other animals in my home. But I look forward to traveling to you!
“Elise always kept me in the loop, would take the best pictures of my pet and went above and beyond. she was the perfect pet sitter while i was away- would love for her to sit 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.
