Pet Boarding Charleston

“So nice & accommodating, & my dog was clearly happy with her "new people" when I picked her up after a week. For a sec, I almost thought she wouldn't want to come home!”

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for over 19 years. I've cared for three senior dogs of my own in the past, two who had chronic conditions. I have experience administering medication and providing special care. In addition, over the years, I've gained experience caring for the dogs of other owners. I'm retired and home full time. Your pet(s) will have all-day care. I'm fully devoted to caring for your pet(s). Your pet(s) will be pampered and spoiled as if he or she was one of my own. Your pet(s) will receive multiple potty breaks throughout the day. In addition, pet(s) will get daily play time in large fenced backyard and if requested, daily walks. I have a half an acre fenced backyard, so plenty of space for your pet(s) to run around and play. Clean dog beds, and if preferred for sleeping, crates with beds for all sizes. For the length of the stay, your pet(s) will be able to make himself or herself at home.

“Aric did a great job with our 3 yr old Rottweiler. Our dog has never stayed with anyone before and our first experience with a full blown kennel over a year ago was a call to come get your dog after he was there for less than 1 hour. He ended up coming on our trip with us. This time we managed to be away for roughly 5 days and the dog was happy at Arics, happy dog, = happy owners! Will definitely use again!”

“Crystal took such good care of our puppy who has anxiety when in new situations- her whole family was understanding and gave him tons of loving. Also, he is on a special diet and she made sure he only ate what we gave and correct amount so he didn't get sick. She even watched him two extra days when we gave late notice which helped us out a lot. Crystal and her whole family are animal lovers and I ensure you your pets will get the love and care they deserve.”

“Lyndsey was amazing with Teddy! We had a death in the family while out of town and she was easy and accommodating to work with. She even sent home some homemade dog treats.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for 27 years and have experience with puppies, adult dogs, and seniors. As a nurse and lifelong animal lover, I am attentive, dependable, and comfortable administering medications when needed. I understand that every dog has unique needs and personalities, and I provide patient, loving care tailored to each pet. Whether your dog needs walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, or extra attention, I will treat them like family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m a full time stay at home mom with a very flexible schedule. I am free to care for your pet all day every day of the week. I currently have a 4 year old lab mix who is nervous around strangers, but he loves to play with other dogs. My daughter is currently 13 months old, so if your pet will be in my home, all I ask is that they are potty trained and can be good/gentle with kids, for my daughter’s safety. Our dog is an indoor/outdoor dog. He spends most of his time inside, but he likes to play outside in our fenced in yard during the day as long as the weather is good. We have a screened-in porch with a fan for him to rest in while he is outside, too. He is free to go in and out of it as he pleases. Our dog is free-fed, but we are also used to following feeding schedules from caring for our elderly dog who recently passed, as well as my family’s dogs. I provide a safe, supervised, and loving home environment with consistent care and attention. If desired, I can offer daily walks, whether your pets are boarding with me or receiving drop-in visits. I can also play fetch and provide medication administration, as I have a Bachelor of Science in Nursing. Every dog deserves companionship and care. I can ensure they receive plenty of affection, attention, and individualized care from myself, my husband, and my daughter. She is very gentle with animals and absolutely loves interacting with them—it’s truly sweet to watch. I offer flexible care options to accommodate different routines and needs, whether your pet requires simple visits or more structured boarding care.

“Cynthia is a 10/10 Trusted Sitter. If I could give her over 5 stars on Rover, I most certainly would without hesitation. The ‘start to end’ booking process was seamless and she was excellent to communicate with. She was beyond accommodating and all I needed to really know upon pick up was how my Tegan behaved. She did not want to leave Cynthia’s side which was a GREAT sign. Thank you Cynthia and Miles for opening your new, clean home to Tegan and spending time with her. Having to travel often for work doesn’t make it easy leaving my dog daughter behind but knowing she’s in good hands with you and close by, makes a world of a difference. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for having this service as an option here in Polk County, TN!!! Looking forward to our next Rover boarding with you in a couple of weeks!”

“Kallie was very sweet and used good judgement when exposing my old girl to her pups. Pippa was very content and happy at pickup. I would recommend Kallie to watch your pup 🐶”

“Elaina took such great care of our Stella! She consistently sent updated pictures and videos of Stella and provided daily updates on her well-being. Stella received lots of loving attention just like at her home. We felt happy that Stella acted and looked very happy in every pic that was sent. Stella came back clean, and calm seemed to be so relaxed. We will be using Elaina again!! Great backyard for an active dog like Stella. She seemed to have made a new friend with "Bug", their dog and their sweet two-year-old daughter.”

“We cannot say enough about Katelyn and how she took such excellent care of our Charlie. She treated him like he was her own baby. She sent us so many pictures so we felt great while we were away. I cannot thank her enough! Charlie definitely fell in love with her. When we came today to get him, he seemed sad to leave her. Charlie obviously had a wonderful time! We will never trust anyone to care for Charlie except Katelyn in the future. And I know Charlie will be looking forward to being with her too!! If you want to feel comfortable leaving your baby with someone while you are away I highly recommend Katelyn. She is the real deal!!! Kathleen Calabrese”

“Sharon sent us numerous photos of my boys enjoying and exploring her home for a 2 night stay. We were at ease knowing they were in good hands. Thank you so much for caring for Charlie & Jake.”

“This was Bentley's 1st time with Bethani, seemed happy and at home when we dropped him off and picked him up! Bethani sent pics of their hikes and down time which we appreciated seeing! He's pretty active and was very tired when he got home, so that says alot LOL! Will definitely book with Bethani again!”

About: Dogs have been a part of my life since I was 10 years old, and being around animals truly makes me happy. I’m a big animal and nature lover, and caring for pets has always come naturally to me. I’m patient, loving, and very detail-oriented, so I genuinely enjoy making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for like family. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I create a calm and cozy environment where they can feel right at home. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, care, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Your fur baby will rarely feel alone and will be treated like part of the family in a calm, loving home environment. We have a large fenced backyard where dogs can safely play, explore, and enjoy the outdoors. My sweet Golden Retriever, Fifi, is gentle, friendly, and loves the company of other dogs, making it a warm and welcoming environment for your pet. I always make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for.

“Charish did a fantastic job with our Sheepadoodle, Nooga for an overnight stay. We did a meet and greet the week before her stay. While we were gone we got updates with pictures! Nooga seemed to be content and enjoyed her stay. Really appreciate The Charish took to love on our girl!”

“Darlene was wonderful caring for our two dogs. They had never been away from us and we didn’t know how well they would respond. Darlene was exceptional when dealing with our one dog especially because he had separation anxiety the first night but Darlene was able to make him feel secure. The fact they both still ate okay was so reassuring. She sent us regular updates and pictures which is very important in helping owners feel secure about your pets safety and comfort. It made our short vacation so much less stressful knowing our pets were in good hands. Darlene’s setup with a nice green area fully fenced in was perfect and our dogs. We would definitely recommend Darlene with no hesitation.”

About: Reliable in-home pet sitter focused on overnight house sitting and routine-based care. I help pets stay comfortable in their own home environment with consistent feeding, walks, play, and companionship. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and temperaments, including senior pets and pets that require medication or special attention. My approach is calm, structured, and dependable. I focus on maintaining your pet’s normal routine and keeping them comfortable while you’re away. I maintain a consistent full-time work schedule during the day, but I specialize in structured overnight house sitting and routine-based care. Pets in my care receive: • Morning care (feeding, walks, attention) • Evening care (feeding, exercise, companionship) • Overnight presence in your home Most pets do well with a stable routine and normal daytime alone time. I ensure consistent care before and after work, as well as overnight supervision. Clear communication and reliability are priorities for me throughout each stay. I treat every home with respect and follow all instructions carefully to maintain your pet’s normal environment and routine. Safety, cleanliness, and attention to detail are my priorities. I ensure doors, routines, and pet care instructions are followed exactly as provided. If anything unusual occurs, I communicate quickly and clearly so you’re always informed.

“My dog had so much fun with Stephanie, he didn't want to leave! He came back happy and healthy. I got plenty of updates and pictures while in her care.”

“We just moved to the area and didn’t have any loved ones to watch after our pup. However, we immediately felt safe leaving our pup in their care and hope to use them again in the future!”

Carlie S.

“Megan and Jeff were amazing! I was so anxious leaving Sioux with a sitter, but Megan made sure to provide me with plenty of updates and pics which helped calm my nerves. Sioux was able to settle in quickly, and when we went to go pick her up, it seemed like she didn't even wanna leave! (She has separation anxiety, so this was a huge win!) I could tell they treated Sioux like one of their own. I'll absolutely be reaching out to Megan again if I'm in the area and fully trust them with my pup!”

About: Your peace of mind and their happiness are my top priorities! I am dedicated to providing peace of mind to pet parents while they’re away. I understand how important your pets are to you, and I treat them like family. When your fur babies are in my care, they’ll receive plenty of attention, snuggles, and love. I have a large, fenced-in backyard where they can play safely and enjoy the outdoors. You will receive many updated, pics and videos while your pet is here having fun. I’m home 90% of the time and make it a priority to plan my activities around what best suits your pet’s individual needs. Whether it’s sticking to their diet, getting the perfect amount of playtime, or providing them with rest when needed, I tailor everything to their routine. I ensure that your pets feel included in everything I do, making them feel like they’re part of my family during their stay. Pet care is at the center of my daily routine. My life revolves around my clients’ schedules, and I always plan activities based on the pet’s specific needs. I try to stay home as much as possible, ensuring the pets feel safe and comfortable in their surroundings. During the day, your pets are free to hang out with me in the living room, kitchen, or even my bedroom. I aim to provide a routine that feels familiar and comforting to each pet, adjusting based on their personality and needs. My goal is to make them feel as relaxed and at home as possible during their stay! I care for pets with the same attention and love that I would give my own. In my home, I have a large, fenced-in backyard perfect for playtime and outdoor fun. I’m also centrally located in a wooded neighborhood, right across from a beautiful forest preserve, which means lots of fresh air and opportunities for nature walks. My split-level home gives me the ability to separate pets if there’s ever any tension, ensuring a peaceful environment for everyone. I’m home most of the time, so I’m always available to stick to your pet’s proper diet and administer any medication they may need. I’m flexible with pick-up times to accommodate your schedule, and I make sure that boarders in my home are treated like part of the family. Your pet will feel loved, safe, and comfortable, whether in my home or yours.
