“Kathy was great with my babies! She gave me updates on their stay and was flexible as my trip added time to their stay. She understood my Jack Russell’s temperament and knew how to react to his attitude!”
“Rebecca took amazing care of our two dogs for 7 or 8 days. She kept us so Informed, and made sure they got lots of love, playtime and even a bath! I can’t recommend her enough. We will Be using her every time now.”
“Leo, an older, a little nervous, terrier was welcomed by Marina and both her dogs immediately. Lots of pictures were sent showing Leo doing all the things he loves to do. I'm very happy to have found her and fully plan on taking Leo on another vacation to Marina's. Thank you!”
“I had a great experience with Jennifer. She took real good care of my doggo Max. He was happy, well-fed, and got plenty of playtime with Charlie! (Jennifer's Pup) Jennifer was the best with updated photos, which gave me peace of mind that he was happy and being taken care of while I was out of town. Jennifer also was great with administering some medications (antibiotics and eardrops for his ear infection) to Max during his stay. She is a real dog person! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!”
“Hands down the best sitter we’ve ever had! took such incredible care of Frankie. Between daily walks, outings with her dog, and her sweet kids giving him so much love, Frankie felt right at home. He normally freaks out from separation anxiety when I pick him up, but he was completely calm and happy. That spoke volumes! Absolute green flags all around—we’ll definitely be using them again whenever we can.”
“Such an absolute blessing! The care and consideration taken for my big beautiful dobbie. Aurora absolutely had the time of her life with Kernix, Travis, and of course Josie. Each day she kept us updated with pictures and videos of our girl having the time of her life. When you leave a loved one in the care of someone you often worry about them. But not with Kernix and family. Never a doubt in our mind that our pup was being cared for with the most love we could ask for.”
About: I have had pets my entire life. I have raised puppies, and kittens. I've also had experience with guinea pigs and leopard geckos!! I have been part of end of life care with family members dogs and loved and supported them and their pets through it all. I absolutely love animals and if I could I would have a massive farm full of them:) I currently take classes for Baking and Pastry. The classes are first thing in the morning and are over by 12:30- and then I am free to drop in. If doing a drop in, I will follow any instructions you leave me. If there arent any specifics, then I will literally come in as if I was coming home to my own dog! If your pet is boarding with me, I have a very very large backyard to play and run. If kenneling is needed we have a large kennel as well that my dog used to use. I can keep the animals separated if needed since I have a 2 story home.
“Kelly was very good with our dog, Cookie. She was very responsive to messages and sent pictures daily. Cookie enjoyed her time, and we felt very comfortable and happy to find a home away from home for our beloved dog. We will definitely use her again!”
“Asia was great boarding our golden retriever and shared regular photo updates while we were away for the weekend. Our pup loved their backyard and made instant friends with their golden retriever as well. Highly recommend!”
“PJ had the best time with their sweet family! He loved getting to run around the yard and hangout with their sweet kids. Highly recommend Abby and her family. We could truly enjoy our getaway knowing our little man was in great hands!”
“I was nervous boarding my puppy for the first time. Saffron was amazing! She sent me pics and videos throughout the stay so I knew my sweet girl was in good hands!!!”
“Carrie was truly AMAZING! First time leaving our dog with a sitter and she went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable. We received pictures multiple times a day of our fur baby having a blast. For sure repeat customers!”
About: I’ve had and taken care of pets since I was a child. I love getting them out and giving them love. I’m so happy to make your fur babies part of my family I work full time from home and make my schedule and have time during the day to be with your pets or take them out after hours. I have a fenced in yard and one pet friendly dog. We love to take long walks and play outside as a family. I would be able to take them out in your home and for good walks
“Boone and Vella had an awesome staycation with Jamie, Jared, and Bruce!! I received lots of pics and my grandpups were happy, healthy, and very much at home! They even had a trip to the beach on Christmas day! Could not have found a better place for them to spend their week while we were away. Would highly recommend!”
“Bootsie and Tom's is the only home away from home for our senior dog! He's always happy to see them and we never worry for a minute while he's there. We'd give as many stars as we could give!”
“Amber did an amazing job watching my dog Reese’s. So much so that my dog is bored now at my house. Reese’s got to hang out with ambers dogs, go on tons of walks, and visit the park. Amber also sends a “report card” of sorts with info about bathroom breaks, meals eaten, and photos from the day. Overall, amazing caretaker!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Forestdale
Sarah and Ethan were lifesavers! They stepped in at the very last minute to care for Ollie, and I’m so grateful. He can be a handful, but they were wonderful with him and made everything so easy. They kept me updated throughout the stay, which helped me feel completely at peace while I was away. I’m a very protective dog mom, and I couldn’t have asked for better care. I’d happily recommend them!
Vilma is amazing at what she does. Luna always loves her time there and is treated like she is at home throughout the entire stay. Vilma takes great care and is accommodating to any special requests. She is also very flexible with her time and your needs. The first time Luna stayed with her, it was a last minute request due to a death in the family, Vilma took her in with a 2 day notice. I highly recommend her for anyone in the charleston area. Thank you!!
Nicole cared for our anxious babies for a week. When we returned our pups were healthy, happy, and excited. They didn’t seem traumatized or smell like kennel the way they do with the concrete warehouse boarding. We would highly recommend Nicole if you’re looking for a loving environment for your fur babies.
Lisa took such great care of our Birdie girl! She sent frequent updates while we were away and took extra steps to ensure our girl felt comfortable in her home. Birdie met us with a huge tail wag when we picked her up - the ultimate review that she was happy and comfortable. We’ll definitely be using Lisa again! Highly recommend.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
96% of sitters in Forestdale can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Forestdale 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 Forestdale.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Forestdale. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Forestdale 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
