“Elizabeth was an amazing Rover! I met with her beforehand and introduced my dog to hers. During the overnight stay, she sent us updates on our dog throughout. I knew our dog was happy and safe the entire time. Highly recommend having your pets stay with Elizabeth!”
“Once again, Karen provided Benny with wonderful care and a fun-filled stay while we took our first extended vacation in 8 years! What a wonderful thing to go on an overseas trip and not have a worry about him and his care. Karen is fantastic - a “natural” with dogs - and learns about your pet to give them the very best. She has been a blessing to us!!”
“Gabriela is awesome! We were in a pinch while on vacation and needed a place for our pup. She was available and was the perfect fit. There was plenty of room for our 50lb dog to run and play. Gabriela sent photos and texted us all week while Rex was there. I think he was more sad to leave her place than he was excited to be picked up! Communication and care were top notch. I highly recommend Gabriela!”
“Kaelyn was amazing! She gave Benne a safe place to stay while we went away for the holidays. She and her family loved him like he was theirs, even their dog Leo loved Benne. She sent regular pictures and videos so we wouldn't miss him too much. We will definitely use her again!”
“Awesome sitter! Sent pictures without needing to request them and I loved the constant updates, great communicater☺️ The dogs came back very happy❤️ Definitely a dog sitter that I will be using again!”
“Luna was so happy during her stay. I could tell by her demeanor when I picked her up that she was comfortable. I will definitely trust Luna with them again without a doubt.”
“David and his wife were absolutely wonderful! I truly felt that my dog, Mojo, was in the best hands—so much so that I wasn’t sure he’d even want to come back home with me! David kept me updated every day, which I really appreciated. I’m so grateful for the care and attention they gave, and I’ll definitely be booking with them again.”
“Im floored! Ashley was Amazing!!! She sent us pictures of Felipe throughout our holiday separation and let us know how his mood and behavior was. This angel…Even gave him a xmas gift and treats! Its 7pm and we finally finished unpacking so I see a gift bag that came home with my spouse and our Felipe. OMG!! Ashley was absolutely amazing!!! Thank you for going the extra mile for him. I felt so guilty we had to leave him and seeing those pictures of him enjoying himself and the extra treats he was enjoying made me feel so at peaace!! We found our Felipe a home when we cant bring him to our adventures! Thank you Ashley for being incredible and going above and beyond for Felipe!!! We willl definitely be back!!!”
“Autumn and her family took wonderful care of our two dogs. She sent us pictures throughout their stay. We could tell that our dogs felt right at home. We’ve already booked again!”
“Haley was so great with our pup. She was so patient and she made our nervous and anxious little pup feel really comfortable and gave us lots of updates! We will definitely book with Haley again soon!”
“Leayn was terrific watching our 6 month old pup. He seemed to have a great time during his stay. We received pictures throughout the day showing his playtime and rests. The fenced in yard allowed him to play outside chasing balls. Will definitely be back!!”
“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!”
“This was our first time using Rover services and boarding our fur baby, so we were nervous. But, Julie was great! She was very accommodating and friendly! We could tell right away her family loved animals and that our fur baby was in good hands and goodness was she! Our fur baby Lilly had an amazing time and got the love and care she deserved. We will definitely have Julie watch our fur baby again.”
“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!”
About: From a young age I have always been very passionate about animals and began a small business where I provided neighbors and family friends with in home pet sitting, walks, and visits. Since I do not have a pet of my own, I would love to care for yours. I have a huge heart for animals and promise to take the best care of your pet. I have lots of previous experience with animals who have intensive dietary restrictions and medication needs. I am qualified and confident to care for any pets with unique needs and/or circumstances. Dog sitting is my passion and one of the most rewarding jobs I've had the pleasure of experiencing. I have a flexible schedule, and am very responsive to inquiries. I have serviced dogs and pets of all sizes and breeds. I look forward to hearing from you and meeting your furry friends. I work Monday through Friday from 9 AM–5 PM, but I am able to provide pet care before work, after work, and throughout the weekends. I am available for morning walks before 8:30 AM, evening walks or drop-in visits anytime after 5 PM, and have full weekend availability for walks, visits, and boarding. I love animals and enjoy making sure every pet receives the attention, exercise, and care they need. I am happy to work around your pet’s routine and will do my best to provide reliable, loving care that gives you peace of mind while you’re away. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment while following each pet’s routine, instructions, and individual needs. I’m attentive, responsible, and always prioritize your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being.
“Madison was phenomenal. This was our first time using Rover and we had a great experience. Griffin, our dog, was able to play with her dog Gracie and other dogs throughout the day. Madison took Griffin to the beach and on walks. Madison was very responsive to my messages and overall very accommodating! Her home was perfect for Griffin and we feel so lucky to have found her. We will definitely have Griffin stay with Madison again when we visit Hilton Head Island. Thanks, Madison! -Griffin & Natalie”
“We fee so lucky to have found Shana on Rover. She took such great care of Dora, our senior dog. Dora has some cognitive dysfunction and has special needs, so we were very nervous about finding someone to watch her. Shortly after meeting Shana, we knew Dora would be in good hands. I can’t imagine anyone caring for her as well as Shana did. We highly recommend Shana and would definitely use her services again without hesitation.”

IF I COULD GIVE MORE THAN 5 STARS I WOULD!! Gabriela was so accommodating, knowledgeable , and professional! This was my first experience using Rover and leaving my baby with someone who wasn’t a relative, but Gabriela truly soothed all my anxiety. Constant updates, pictures, and videos. Bruno truly had such a great time, she even got him to eat a full meal which is UNHEARD OF for us when he’s in an unfamiliar environment! It was truly great, cannot recommend Gabriela anymore!

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
98% of Hilton Head Island sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Hilton Head Island landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Hilton Head Island 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 Hilton Head 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 Hilton Head 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 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.
