“Sarah and Hagan were helpful and informative from the time I was interested in booking a stay to well after I picked my pet up. They had no issue helping me navigate booking a stay on Rover for the first time. Response time was very speedy and many updates were received while my pet was in their care.”
“Excellent communication, made sure to let us know how our boy was doing and if something was wrong. She helped our boy when he had loose bowels and got him feeling better ! She loves our boy and I’m sure he loves her !”
“Harley’s experience was wonderful. She enjoyed playing with their family dogs and cooling off in their kiddie pool. We enjoyed seeing pictures and videos of her having a great time during her visit. Our experience was also wonderful. They were very flexible for us with drop off and pick up when our plans changed. They even let us know when she ran out of food and offered to pick her up some for us. They went above and beyond and took great care of our Harley girl. Very grateful, would 100% recommend and will use them for future trips. Would give them more stars if I could!”
“Rachel and her husband were perfect with my pup! They had a great house & yard for her to play in. Waylyn did not want to leave her two new friends, Cooper and Bentley.

I’m so happy I found her. ♥️”

About: I myself am a dog owner. I have one shitzus who is 16 years old and a new Jack Russell puppy who is now 5 years old. I love playing tug a war. Running with them. Cudding and talking to them. I can never find a dog who loves taking a bath because for some reason my dogs don't but, they love to have their hair combed. I have a open home and let them run around inside and outside. My dogs usually sleep on my bed. I love cuddling with my dogs during the rain it's fun to know they have someone to rely on. I am a soon to be college student. I’m living with my best friends but are apartment complex is super friendly to animals! We have a dog park and many more! My besties both are big dog lovers. I myself love all animals. I do have a part time job I do get my schedule during the end of the week. So just communicate with me if you want something done a certain way or have a schedule you ALWAYS follow. I am a friendly and open person. So don't be afraid to talk to me. I work from home so I just stay home most of the time. I’m more of a gamer and I like to watch anime. So I’ll be there to snuggle and give your pets love and kisses! And feed them. Well I have a a fenced back yard!:3 where they can play and have fun! We also have a little dog park that I can walk with them to. I just let them be themselves. I want them to feel that they are happy with me and safe. I work from home and by the time the time I work all the babies will be in bed and have gone to the bathroom one final time. So I'm mostly free throughout the day. We have a fenced yard where they can run around and play outside! Plus plenty of space inside for them to walk around and explore
“I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my dog, Parker! Payton took amazing care of him while I was away and kept me updated with pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. Parker was clearly happy and well-loved the entire time. She’s reliable, attentive, and truly cares for the pets she watches. Payton will definitely be my go-to from now on!”
“Nicole was very patient with this nervous dog momma! She made sure Diesel was comfortable while introducing him to other dogs! Thanks to her, he made new friends! I'll definitely use her again for boarding or even walks! Diesel loved her, too!”
“Charles did an amazing job taking care of Kenji. From daily updates and photos to ensuring Kenji had walks and playtime. Kenji got along well with Knox, who is a Dalmatian as well. Kenji was happy when I returned, and it was a huge relief to know he was in such good hands. Highly recommend Charles for anyone needing a dependable and caring dog sitter!”
“I couldn’t be more pleased with the care Steven provided for my pup, Abby! From the moment we met, it was clear he had a natural connection with dogs and a genuine love for animals. Abby was happy, well-exercised, and clearly well-loved while I was away. Steven kept me updated with messages, which gave me great peace of mind. It’s always a little nerve-wracking to leave your pet with someone new, but Steven exceeded all expectations. I returned to a happy, healthy pup. Highly recommend Steven to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. I’ll definitely be reaching out to him again in the future!”
“Leanna was so wonderful with our girl. She went above and beyond accommodating us when it was MY fault for messing up which day I would be returning and added on an extra day to my reservation. We loved that we did a meet and greet to make sure everyone got along well. Her young daughters were so incredibly sweet to Tahlia and apparently had a great time with her. While Tahlia has love children in the past, she is older and hasn’t been around a lot of kids in a number of years. Leanna was great making sure Tahlia felt loved by her sweet girls but also making sure Tahlia wasn’t overwhelmed. Her yard was a perfect heaven for Tahlia and I’m sure she had lots of new things to smell and see. Leanna did great to make sure I felt updated and I felt super secure leaving Tahlia with her and the girls.”
About: I’ve been an animal lover of my entire life, I’ve always had dogs and cats and wanted to work with animals from a very young age. I would open my own sanctuary if I had the time and money. However, since I don’t, I’d love to add your puppy to our pack when you need some time away. I currently work during the week, but I’m available full-time on the weekends for boarding and anytime in the evening during the week. Let me know your needs and I can try to make it work. I have a fully fenced backyard that is over an acre. I also have a very friendly 2 year old dog who loves other dogs, as well as 2 outdoor cats who keep to themselves. Our dog is mostly an indoor dog, who despite our best efforts ended up being a furniture puppy. I do not crate my dog, but would be willing if that’s what you require.

Laura was extremely thoughtful and attentive to our dog during her stay! We even had a phone call beforehand to discuss our dog’s likes and dislikes. She shared lots of photos and texts about how our pup was doing. I would definitely ask Laura to dogs sit again in the future.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Aiken on Rover is $53.5 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 216 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Aiken. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
96% of Aiken sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Aiken landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Aiken home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Aiken.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Aiken sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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 .
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.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
