This was the first time I used DogVacay and the whole experience was extremely positive. Carissa and Ryan were fabulous...very responsive and accommodating. They sent daily updates with pictures and it was obvious that my dog, Wayne, was not only well cared for but was also having a great time playing with Charley. I will not hesitate to ask them to watch Wayne again the next time I need a dog-sitter.

Laura was a great sitter for my 4lb poodle, Weston. From the start, she was attentive, kind, and clearly experienced. Weston can be a bit timid, but he felt comfortable with her right away — which gave me so much peace of mind. She kept in touch throughout his stay with thoughtful updates and sweet photos, and it was clear he was in caring hands the entire time. When I picked him up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I’m so grateful to have found Laura and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter.

About: I’ve had dogs all throughout my life and recognize the important part they play in their family’s life. They deserve lots of love and attention, which unfortunately none of us have an endless amount of. That’s where I’d love to step in! Currently, my work schedule is random but often allows me to help where I can. I’m hoping to bring home a new pup later this year, but as I wait, I’d love to be able to help take care of yours! I’m very active and enjoy being outdoors, so I assure you your pet won’t be bored! I’m available for weekday drop ins and walks as well as weekend boarding. I’m most comfortable accepting boarding in my own home as I’m married, but special arrangements can be discussed if needed. I live 10 minutes from Sullivan’s island, so in addition to walks around Mt. Pleasant, I’d love to take your pup to the beach if you board with me!

Haley was amazing with my rescue, Tuna. She kept me updated with pictures and showed me around the space when I dropped her off. It’s a great setting with a fenced in backyard. Tuna settled in right away and took advantage of all the playing!

About: I grew up with four dogs and now own a cat, so caring for animals has always been part of my daily life. For the past three years, I’ve been pet sitting a variety of animals, each with their own routines and personalities. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, cats, and pets that need a little extra patience or attention. I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and happy by sticking to their normal routines and giving them plenty of care, play, and affection. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I have a cat of my own and am constantly surrounded by animals from friends and family, so caring for pets is second nature to me. I build my schedule around feeding times, walks, check-ins, and quality time, making sure each pet gets consistent care and attention. I’m reliable, organized, and flexible, which allows me to accommodate different routines and special needs. Whether it’s daily visits or extended stays, I make sure pets feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for as part of my regular day. I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment for every pet. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I make sure they feel secure and at ease. In my home, my cat and I are used to having other animals around, so I can smoothly introduce new pets while keeping routines consistent. In clients’ homes, I follow their instructions closely, stick to feeding and play schedules, and maintain a calm, safe environment. I always supervise pets, provide plenty of attention and affection, and make sure they feel happy, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.

If your looking for a place for your dog to have a big backyard, a sweet other dog to play with and some amazing people to take care of your dog, then Julia is who you should book with with! My dog Cappy stayed with her all weekend and she was very attentive at sending me pictures and updating me if anything happened. She also has a very sweet and loving black lab that will be a great play buddy for any dog. She is also very flexible with pickup and drop off times and is very quick with responding back. Thank you again Julia!

About: I have two dogs 9 & 5 and one kitty. My older pup had a back injury when she was 2, so I’ve dealt with all types of special care for pups who need a bit of assistance as well as administering medications, etc. My animals are my children and I would take care of someone else’s babies as my own! I work full time but typically off by 2pm. I focus on long walks or adventures in the evenings that get my pups worn out leading into the following day while I’m at work. I also have a huge fenced in backyard for them to play in! Bare minimum one walk a day, feeding morning and night, my dogs roam the house while I’m gone but they are trained and older- I can follow instructions easily with preferred schedules(:

We would be happy to have Zach watch our dog again!

It was clear she genuinely cared about my pets and made them feel comfortable and at home from the start. She also really eased my apprehensions about leaving them, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I truly appreciated the updates and thoughtful care she provided.

Abby was AMAZING. This was my first time leaving my dog with someone since moving to Charleston. Dolly went right with Abby and forgot all about me leaving as soon as they met! Abby sent updates, photos, and even took Dolly out for a pup cup at Ben & Jerry’s on her last day! We are so sad that she is moving to Wilmington, we would have loved to use her forever! We are wishing her so much success for her future & if she finds time to Rover in Wilmington, you should book with her with no hesitation!
