“Leayn was wonderful! We booked her last minute over a holiday. She kept us updated with pictures and truly felt like she loved our pets as her own. Will definitely be booking again if we are back in the area. Highly recommend!”
“This was the first time that I left my pup with anyone other than family. My experience was great! My baby is big but not harmless at all. Nakita & her family took him in as their own. She sent pictures along the way so that I knew he was okay! Those pics showed that he was more than okay. I will definitely allow my baby to stay with this family again! Thanks so much Nakita!”
“Lilyana is absolutely amazing..., and I knew it from the moment we met. The entry set-up where you bring your peys in, is amazing; potty routine (every 2 hours ) are amazing, the toys the 'playground', the lovable hugs and caregiving she showed to my 2 fur babies TOTALLY EXCEEDIND MY EXPECTATIONS. Her services are UNMATCHED and I highly recommend her services!!❤️❤️❤️”
“Edra was excellent with our pups! We have a 12 year old Spaniel and a 6 year old Frenchie. Both are spoiled and get anxious in traditional kennels. Edra boarded them and treated them like her own. We definitely recommend her.”
“Well all I can say is this...... Ashley is no longer our dog sitter..She is FAMILY. She took in my Three dogs ( two are pit bulls) and kept them for a week while we went on vacation. Her home was well equipped for my big dogs and her family loved our dogs as if they were their own. And my wife got to FaceTime our babies while we were gone. Great Experience!!!!!! Will always use Ashley when we go out of town for our dogs.”
“Renee was great! This was my first time using Rover and boarding my sweet Thelma. Renee sent me several updates, sent pictures, and made sure I knew how my girl was. Will definitely be back the next time I need someone to watch Thelma.”
“Leigh was amazing with Scruffy during his 6-day vacation this month. Scruffy loved hanging out with her and her two sweet pups. Leigh sent daily updates about all of the fun Scruffy was having. Thank you for the peace of mind you gave us, Leaigh!”
“Brydget was excellent and she took excellent care of Charlie. I highly recommend her and will use her now going forward. She has a lot of space for your dogs to roam and keep busy. She offered pick up and delivery services which is just outstanding. Again, 5 stars all the way.”
“Corey was absolutely wonderful! She took such good care of my girl, kept me updated, and sent me so many pictures of her having the best time! I will absolutely continue to book with Corey and I know my pup cannot wait to go back!”
About: I grew up with family dogs and I have a spoiled little doodle mutt of my own. Your baby will be spoiled rotten in my care ❤️❤️ I often dog sit for family and friends for free since I love having a playmate for my Sushi (my dog) and now they’ve suggested I make it a side hustle. Also, I’m a nurse so I can take good care of both people and doggies. I work 3 12-hour shifts in a week so I’m basically free for 4 days. I also have my husband who will help in taking good care of your pets. Believe it or not he is an even more softie for doggies than me. We’ve been wanting to get a second dog so I’m hoping to keep him busy with foster babies and forget about it for now until we can afford to have another furbaby 😊 I have a fenced yard and 1 very cute doodle to keep your pets company. I also make it a point to walk my dog twice a day and bring her to the dog park nearby. I also often do a pup cup run with my baby so I can definitely bring your baby along and free pup cup on me 😊
“Maria and her family loved my dog, Poppi, like their own! She was able to watch her last minute for me and was very responsive and friendly. She sent the cutest updates and Poppi was sad to leave! Will definitely be using Maria again soon ❤️🐶”
“I genuinely wouldn’t leave my dog Larry with anyone else. RoseAnn is amazing, so kind and understanding and is clearly so great with animals. Larry loves staying with her, she sent updates on how he was doing, and while I am always very uneasy leaving Larry when I go away on vacations, the second I got to her house to drop him, I was so at ease, because I remembered how well he was taken care of last time. Thank you so much RoseAnn, genuinely so grateful!”
“I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with Selena. She was a good communicator and we got daily updates and pictures from her which we loved. We aren't local to her, but if we were, we would certainly use hey again.”
“Madison and her husband took such wonderful care of our German Shepherd pup, Harper. We knew that she was in good hands and was having fun playing with other dogs during her stay. I would 100% recommend using Madison for boarding on Hilton Head Island!”
“Shirley & Lee took great care of our pups while we were away for the weekend. They have a great fenced in yard for the dogs to go out in and they were very communicative, sending pictures throughout the stay. We will definitely be booking them for future boarding!”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Bluffton is $48
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Bluffton
We have an 12 year old, high energy dog who struggles with anxiety and can be pretty vocal, so after recently moving, we were nervous about boarding him or finding a new Rover sitter. Megan immediately put us at ease and didn’t bat an eye at any of his quirks. Her whole family was so sweet with him and did a wonderful job helping him feel calm and comfortable. She also sent photos every day, which we really appreciated. We’re so grateful we found Megan and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, patient sitter!
Fernanda took wonderful care of both of our dogs in her home. They were happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for when I picked them up. She communicated consistently throughout their stay, which gave me great peace of mind, and she was extremely dependable from start to finish. I would absolutely trust her with our dogs again and highly recommend her to others.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Bluffton home-away-from-home, packing:
