“I can not say enough great things about Brenda! I will recommend her to anyone who asks. It is so obvious she is a true animal lover, she's so patient with our dog, and believe me some days that's not easy ? I have never worried less about our baby when we are away from him then when he is with Brenda. We will go to her first and only for our boarding needs!”
“Ximena and Travis were amazing! They were so friendly and sent us picture updates. It was nice knowing our dogs were well taken care of and given the attention they deserve while we were out of town. We will definitely use them again! Highly recommend!”
“Matt does such a great job of taking care of our 2 babies! We can rest easy knowing he is watching them. He gives great updates and both of our dogs run to his door to see him”
“Another wonderful stay with Miss Jill! So many walks, so many cuddles, so much love. Not sure he really wanted to leave. Makes me feel good knowing he is being loved when I can't be with him.”
“Yevheniia was wonderful with our pug! From the beginning we had a meet and greet just to make sure it was a good fit and she was so sweet and accommodating and made sure our pug was comfortable even just for the short visit. Then for the actual stay of two nights, Yevheniia sent us pictures and regular detailed updates about how our pug was doing. When our pug was unsettled in her crate at night missing her parents, Yevheniia even took it upon herself to let her out and sleep with her at night to make sure she was comfortable! Yevheniia was very attentive and kind and knowledgeable about dogs, and she did very well with our pug's complicated eating routine and medications for her eyes and allergies. Yevheniia also has a beautiful pet friendly home with plenty of space and a back yard. We were so confident that Yevheniia was taking good care of our pug the whole time. Overall, I wish I could give more stars, what a great experience! We will definitely be booking with Yevheniia again! :)”

“Carol was friendly and easy to work with. She was great at communicating about the booking, expectations, etc. My pup requires medication, special food, etc. and I felt great leaving him with Carol.

“Christina is a wonderful pet sitter. Her personality is very nice and you can tell she is an animal lover. Her house is clean and set up great to accommodate her furry visitors. The fenced back yard is a plus and I know our dog Bella loved being outside occasionally. I appreciate that Christina sends pictures and it is obvious Bella is happy. I would highly recommend that you can entrust Christina with your beloved pet.”

Our dog who has particular needs was well cared for with a calm and enriched that matched her behavioral needs. Training was maintained and my dog came home happy and stable. It was great to have someone reliable to love my dog while I was so far away.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 1,582 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Irwin. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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 Irwin 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 Irwin 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 Irwin.
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 Irwin. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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 Irwin 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.
