“We booked Emily the night before we arrived in HH; she took great care of our two fur babies. She sent pictures and loved them like her own, with multiple walks each day. Highly recommend!”
“Karen is absolutely amazing! From the get go our pup loved her! We will most definitely be booking with Karen again! I trust her with the care of our young pup! Truly exceptional hospitality”
“Fernanda was super sweet and attentive with Murphy. She was very good with communication before during and after his day care visit. Fernanda sent pictures during his stay and he was very relaxed and happy. I recommend her for your fur baby too.”
“Genia was awesome with our high energy dog, Fiver. She took her to the beach and on walks and sent me photos. Best of all, Genia was super flexible with time during our busy, unpredictable moving day. Fiver can't wait to go back and play with Genia's dogs!”
About: With over 20 years of experience raising and caring for dogs—many from shelters—I provide a loving and engaging environment for pets. As a dedicated pet sitter, I offer dog walking, overnight stays, feeding, and plenty of playtime. Since I work from home, your pets will always have companionship and care, along with a fun atmosphere that includes other friendly dogs and a lovable cat. I am always home! I work remotely and have plenty of time to hangout with the pooches. My guy gets at least one walk a day (1-2 miles) and beach trips when we can. In my home, I provide a safe, playful, environment with a large fenced in back yard and a doggy door so they can come in and out as they please. Dogs get plenty of exercise, social interaction with other dogs, and a structured routine to help them feel comfortable. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s routine as closely as possible, providing feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. I respect each pet’s unique personality and needs, whether it’s giving extra care to an anxious dog or ensuring a cat has a quiet and familiar environment. My goal is to make pets feel safe, happy, and loved, whether they’re in my home or theirs.
“Ashley was so sweet to my Winnie! We couldn’t ask for better - so very thankful for her doting on her and sending numerous pictures and updates. Thank you, Ashley! We would recommend her to anyone!!!”
“It was my one year olds first time with a sitter. Madison and her husband were prompt and accommodating of our schedule. I booked 2 days and figured the telltale sign would be if Mija, was reluctant to go back for day 2. She was excited to see them and happy all the way around. Thanks so much. Made our trip planning so much easier.”
About: Have had dogs and cats my whole life. Truly love animals. I have a sweet German shepherd/husky right now. He is totally calm and I have multiple floors to separate if a pet isn’t comfortable around another dog. I have a big yard in the back where play fetch and have a good time. Would love to meet any new pet friends. I am fully available. Unless I’m on the golf course, I’m most likely playing with my dog at home. Nothing to get in the way of sitting, boarding or walking. In a clients home I will do what they prefer and normally do. At my place I believe any pets would be comfortable and happy. We get outside a lot and have good places to walk and a big yard as well. I have no problems letting them on furniture or anything like that.
“Sweetest person of all time! Brianna watched our cavapoo for a couple days while we stayed at the HH National RV park. She lives very close by and was super flexible to accommodate any times I needed to extend or end early. She works from home, has a beautiful house and a sweet little dog of her own. We had one request which was not to ever leave our dog alone and Brianna was more than happy to accommodate. Will absolutely use her again when back in Beaufort, Bluffton or Hilton Head!”
About: I have been dog sitting for over 5 years, and have worked in a dog daycare/boarding facility. I am comfortable with dogs of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs! I currently work part time which will give me ample time to take care of your pup! I do have a kitten in home but he has been around dogs before so he is comfortable around other animals! I live in an apartment but I can do frequent leash let outs. We are in a great neighborhood with sidewalks and space to go on walks.
About: Before we had kids, we would dog sit up to four dogs at a time in our home. Now that our kids are old enough and understand how to care for and respect dogs we feel comfortable bringing kid friendly and potty trained dogs into our home. We’re all excited to love on your pup! Julie homeschools our children so they are home a majority of the day. If your pup is destructive or a chewer, please bring a crate for when they have to leave the house. We intend to love and care for your dog just as we love and care for Penny. We work together as a family to ensure your pets needs are met throughout the day and night.
About: I have been a pet owner my whole life as well as an animal lover! I have volunteered at shelters as well as adopted 2 rescue dogs. I have really been around every breed and behavior. I’m available most weekends with open availability. My schedule is fairly flexible during the week and make it open if need be for your convenience. I have had a 70lb dog and currently have a 56lb dog. I’m good with harnesses and leashes for all size dogs! I also have had multiple dogs on daily medication so very well versed in giving medication too.
About: Growing up, I was surrounded by animals and always had cats in the home, along with guinea pigs. When I moved into my own place, I adopted my first dog, Leela, and later welcomed a chinchilla into my family as well. Through these experiences, I discovered how much I truly love caring for pets, which led me to adopt a second dog, Millie (pictured in my profile). I adopted Millie as a puppy, so I am very comfortable with puppy care, training basics, and the patience young dogs require. Since then, life has brought some changes. Following a move from Omaha, Nebraska to South Carolina and becoming a new mother, my personal pets are no longer in my care—Leela now lives with my former partner, and Millie was lovingly rehomed with another family when balancing a newborn became overwhelming. My chinchilla was also adopted by a new home due to the relocation. I am currently a stay-at-home mom without pets of my own, which allows me to be flexible, attentive, and fully present when caring for your pets. I treat every animal as if they were my own and strive to provide a safe, loving, and reliable environment. My schedule is very flexible, as pet care through Rover is my full-time gig. This allows me to accommodate a wide range of needs, including weekday, weekend, and last-minute requests. I’m able to adjust my availability to fit your pet’s routine and provide consistent, attentive care, whether that means drop-ins, extended visits, or customized schedules. Since I have no pets of my own, your pets will receive all of the attention and care they deserve. My home has a big unfenced yard.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Hilton Head Island
Was very happy to learn that Karen was still part of Rover. We used her twice last year when visiting Hilton Head and needed someone to watch Brandy during this trip. She is wonderful when caring Brandy. Lots of attention, toys, treats, walks and best of all -- photos! It's great to know that Karen continues to be there for us when we need her. Will definitely be using her again when we need quality care for our fur-baby.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Hilton Head Island commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 264 sitters in Hilton Head Island, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
