“Robyn and her family were great to accommodate Sauvi on short notice and gave her a warm welcome. Their dog was super sweet and made the introduction stress free. I would definitely love to have Sauvi stay with Robyn again in the future.”

“We’ve tried several dog sitters and are so happy we found Kaylene! We felt we made the right decision immediately. Our dog was well cared for with lots of love and hugs. Will rebook again!”

“I had a wonderful experience with this dog sitter! She kept me updated every day with pictures and messages about how my dog was doing, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that my dog was well cared for and loved while I was away. I highly recommend her services and would happily book with her again!”

“Autumn and her family were wonderful to our dogs! They treated them as their own. Autumn sent lots of pics and was great with communication on how our pups were doing. We definitely will use her again!”

“We had a wonderful experience with Taylor, while her and her family watched our dog, Hopper! From the moment we dropped him off, we felt completely comfortable knowing he was in great hands. They took excellent care of him, gave him plenty of attention, and kept us updated while we were away. It was obvious that Hopper was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We truly appreciate the love and attention they gave him and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. We will definitely use them again! 🐾❤️”

“Leayn and her wonderful, warm family offer exactly what we all dream of: a safe, loving, and attentive home away from home for our four-legged family members. I was extremely nervous about leaving my attention-hungry cat Lucy for two whole weeks, but the moment I connected with Leyan, all my worries disappeared. She's professional, prompt, and a true animal lover. I received pictures and updates on Lucy daily, so I never had to worry for a moment about how or what she was doing. And when I picked my kitty up and Leyan told me that she and her family are going to miss Lucy, I completely believe her. From now on, whenever we go out of town, I am leaving Lucy with Leayn, no doubt about it! I cannot recommend her highly enough!”


“This was our dog’s first extended stay with Karen after a “trial run” overnight. Everything went so well - she is truly the only person (outside of our family) he has ever bonded with. Karen goes above and beyond to make Benny comfortable, and to continue to get to know him and gain his trust. She is wonderful about communicating and sending pictures. Already looking to book again soon!”

“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!”


“Emily was so amazing to our billie ❤️ she sent us photos throughout the day and billie just adored her !! We willl definitely be using her from now on and recommend her 100%!”

About: My husband and I love caring for pets and are excited to offer your fur babies a loving home while you’re away! I work a hybrid schedule, so I’m home often and have the most availability on weekends. My husband will also help care for your pets when his schedule allows. We don’t have a dog of our own right now because our changing work schedules wouldn’t allow us to give one the time and attention they deserve. Rover gives us the opportunity to spend time with pets while making sure they receive plenty of walks, potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles! We’ll treat your pets like our own and send plenty of photo and text updates so you can feel comfortable while you’re away. We look forward to meeting you and your furry family! 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. I’m attentive, responsible, and always prioritize your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being.
“Megan and her family were great. They treated my dog very well. Even when I had to stay for an extra day on my trip, they cooked for my dog and fed him. I recommend Megan. She is great!”

“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.”

“Lilyana was an excellent sitter. I was vacationing in Savannah for a few days and looking for a reputable dog sitter, was referred to use the Rover app found Lilyana.

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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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.

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.
