“The first time I met Melissa, I knew our fox terrier, Hershey ♥️ would be in good hands. Melissa is kind, caring, responsible and sends daily pictures with updates. She has a beautiful fenced in yard. I highly recommend Melissa♥️”

“I changed the times that we would drop off and pick up Penny and Hannah was very accommodating . She sent us pictures and updates often, which I love to receive! I would recommend Hannah and her fur baby Tillie!”

“Ashley was wonderful with our dog. She was really kind and communicated well, and it seemed like Remi was treated as “part of the family” during his time with her. I would definitely ask Ashley again for future pet-sitting needs!”

“Sarah was very accommodating to my last minute care need. My girl is very anxious around other people but she was comfortable around Sarah from the first meeting. My girl enjoyed her day and I would definitely recommend Sarah to care for your fury babies!”

About: Not just have I grown up around animals of all kinds but I have taken care of several friends and families pets to ensure their well being while the owners were away. I currently am not limited to hours to come to care of your furry babies! I’m willing to work around most people’s needs within almost any hours!. I prefer to be able to go to your house to provide any care you’re seeing fit. Such as visiting your pet/animals keeping them active with play time, keep them outside as much as possible for exercise/potty time. I can make sure they are fed/watered. Just providing that time they need to get through the time you’re away.

“As a return customer, I am always impressed with the excellent care and picture updates Karen provides. I can enjoy whatever time I am away from my dog knowing he’s happy. I will continue to seek out Karen for care on future trips.”


About: I grew up with 2 dogs in the house and got my fur baby 11 years ago. I’ve been taking care of my own and helping other for over 10 years. Love being outside and letting our four legged family members get their much needed play time! Stay at home mom with a flexible schedule to help with walks/potty breaks during the day. Available most weekends to help sit and possible weekdays depending on how long of a stay is needed. I have an 11 year old Shepard mix who loves the company of another fur friend. I also have a medium size dog crate if needed.
About: I am a senior lady who lost her 14 year old pup at Christmas and would enjoy looking after your home and your fur babies while you travel! I have rescued, adopted and trained several mixed breed dogs over the years and have had purebred, poodles and other small dogs after having larger dogs in my youth. One of my dogs was deaf, and other ones ran on the Beach so hand signals were a must. I’m retired and live in Beaufort SC but I can travel to you. Your home and your fur babies will be well cared for according to your specific needs. I have owned homes my entire life so I know how to take care of things. I have also cared for homes with Pools, spas and hot tubs. I enjoy walking at least once a day and playing with the pets but also understand that all animals have different needs and personalities. Some like to roam their yard while others enjoy the feeling of security from a crate or just like to be on a chair or a lap. I read, knit and have a quiet home.
“I chose Edra to watch Ollie because every single review she had was perfect, and that’s exactly the experience Ollie got when he stayed with her during my work trip - perfect! She’s very sweet, made Ollie feel at home, and catered to his quirks and needs just like I would have at home. I highly recommend Edra to watch your dog and will absolutely call on her again in the future!”

“Frank was great! This was the first time we had our dog boarded and he was still relatively new to us from the pound so we were not 100% sure how he would do, but Frank took excellent care of him and our dog came back happy and tired! Frank made a point to text us with a little update every day and was sure to be on top of minor incidents that occurred so we were always up to date. We had a pretty strict regimen for our dog plus some medication that needed to be given and everything was done how we always do it! We will definitely be using Frank again!”

“Martina did an AMAZING job looking after our dog, Wendy. She was incredibly informative, always keeping us updated with Wendy’s activities and well-being. We could tell Wendy felt right at home and incredibly comfortable, reassuring us that she was in the best hands possible with Martina. Her kindness and genuine care were evident in every interaction we had with her. She is truly a dog lover and made sure Wendy felt right at home! We knew Wendy was not only in safe hands, but also in the company of someone who truly cares. We’re so grateful for Martina and will definitely be rebooking with her again!”

About: I’ve been around pets my entire life. I have a huge love for dogs. It’s like we understand each other. They are great companions and I’ve also had one as an emotional support dog who I lost a couple years back. I currently now have another pitbull who is an emotional support dog, and I love him to life. Hi my name is Virginia. I’m 34 years old. Currently in the medical field, and as I said previously I have a huge love dogs. I currently have a pitbull right now. He’s very sweet and loving. It’s nothing in the world I wont do for him. I will keep a close eye on your pet like a hawk. They will never be out of my sight no matter what. You have no worries
About: Dogs have always held a special place in my heart. From the pups I grew up with to my soul dog Lacey, who has inspired this Rover journey. They are the purest creatures on this earth and taking the time to connect with each and every one that comes way, brings me so much happiness 🐾🤍 Life can be unpredictable so I’m here to make things a little easier! Whether it’s a spontaneous weekend trip or a daily walk, I’ve got you (and your best friend) covered ✔️ I am a proud & protective dog mama myself — when your pup is with me, you can trust they will be cared for as my own. I know just how important it is to feel confident when leaving a member of the family in someone else’s hands and I take that responsibility to heart 🫶🏼
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Dataw Island
We had such a great experience with our dog sitter Destiny! She and her fiancé took wonderful care of Finbar over two nights, and it really gave us peace of mind while we were away. From the start, communication was clear and consistent, and we really appreciated the photos—they made it obvious Finbar was happy and comfortable. It’s clear they genuinely care about the dogs they watch. Finbar came home relaxed, well cared for, and clearly enjoyed his time. We would absolutely trust them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and kind dog sitter.

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Dataw Island home-away-from-home, 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 Dataw Island.
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 Dataw Island 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 , 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 .
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.
