“Our pup had a great time running with the pack at Richard's house. He also did a great job keeping us updated on our pups day and provided daily pictures. Highly recommend!!”
“Our pup had the best time!!! Carla took incredible care of him, gave us daily updates and even gave a bath at the end of his stay. He didn’t want to come home at all haha. If you’re looking for responsive and attentive sitter, Carla is your lady!”
About: I’m a registered nurse with a lifelong love for dogs, which means safety, reliability, and attention to detail are always my top priorities. I had my own dog for 14 years, so I have extensive experience caring for senior dogs, including administering medications, recognizing changes in behavior or health, and providing extra patience and comfort. Having moved here from Philly, I truly miss having a dog of my own, so I treat every pet I care for like family. I’m calm, observant, and dependable, and I’m especially comfortable with routines, special instructions, and pets who need a little extra care or reassurance. Whether it’s walks, overnight stays, or drop-ins, your dog will be safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine. As a nurse, I work three 12-hour shifts per week, which gives me several full days off where I’m completely available for walks, drop-ins, and overnight care.I plan my schedule carefully and only accept bookings I can fully commit to, so your pet will always get consistent attention, exercise, and care. I’m happy to work around your dog’s routine and communicate clearly so you always know your pet is in good hands. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or yours. As a nurse, I’m highly attentive, detail-oriented, and trained to notice subtle changes in behavior, appetite, or energy levels. I carefully follow all routines and instructions provided, including feeding schedules, medications, leash preferences, and house rules. In a client’s home, I respect your space and keep your pet’s environment clean, calm, and familiar. In my home, pets are supervised, never left unattended for long periods, and kept in a secure, comfortable setting. I use leashes at all times outdoors unless otherwise instructed and avoid dog parks unless explicitly approved. I prioritize clear communication and will provide regular updates, photos, and messages so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness always come first.
“My Pepito had a wonderful stay with Leigh Ann and her family. Leigh Ann is super easygoing and very flexible/understanding about schedule changes; and it seems clear that her family made Pepito feel cared for and comfortable. I could tell from a couple of the cute pics she sent! And their doggy Biscuit is so friendly and adorable! ❤️ I wouldn't hesitate to leave Pepi in their care again!”
“Thank you Diane for taking such great care of my dog. Charlie is a skittish miniature poodle mix that does not connect with everyone. Diane made her feel at home and sent pictures. I would definitely recommend Diane and we will be using her again.”
“Jack had a great time with Natasha for a weekend! We had something fall through and she was able to take us on a late notice. She was great with communication as well. We will be rebooking!”
“Dominic was great!! He gave so much love to my girl for the week I was gone. I don’t think she wanted to leave she had so much fun. It was my pups first time being away from me, and he made sure she was very comfortable. He is quick with responses and always keeps you in the loop. Highly recommend for any of your pet care needs 😊”
“Paul was a terrific sitter. Paddington was very comfortable and had a great time. Paul took him on long walks and sent really nice photos at the end of the day, he also had a dog cam and you can see your dog. Lastly Paul helped us out of a bind agreeing to watch Paddington on short notice as we had an unexpected trip. Highly recommend!”
“Kelly has taken care of 2 of my dogs now and I can’t say enough great things about the care they’ve received! Pictures and updates came frequently and I know lots of walks and snuggles were had! Will definitely be using Kelly again!”
“Sasha is the absolute best! She takes such amazing care of my dog, does all sorts of things he loves like taking long walks and couch cuddles, and sends the cutest photo and video updates. This is my third time booking with her and honestly I would rearrange my travel around her schedule if she was busy when I needed a sitter!! Highly recommend!”
“Incredible experience. Michael incredibly communicative and Dennis had a blast. I think he’s even sad to come home and not get all the attention and play with the new friends he made. I highly recommend Michael in every way.”
“Natalie was very responsive and easy to work with. She and Diesel kept Zeus entertained and he came home ready to pass out from all the fun. Zeus can be needy and Natalie did a great job helping him adjust to his new environment. I'll definitely be using her again in the future.”
“Jessica was patient with our dog who was having trouble going to the bathroom outside in an unfamiliar place. She worked with her and gave us updates along the way. Palmer has a lot of puppy and lab energy and seemed to have a great time playing with the other dogs and getting that energy out. We’d board with her again!”
“This was the first time I used DogVacay and the whole experience was extremely positive. Carissa and Ryan were fabulous...very responsive and accommodating. They sent daily updates with pictures and it was obvious that my dog, Wayne, was not only well cared for but was also having a great time playing with Charley. I will not hesitate to ask them to watch Wayne again the next time I need a dog-sitter.”
“Our dogs reaction when they saw Jennifer for their second visit said more than any actual words could. They yelped with delight and their tails wagged and they ran pulling on their leashes to get to her faster. We are so thankful for her loving care💛”

“She was an amazing dog sitter! She took Chunky on walks to the beach and the coffee shop, he loved hanging out with her. There wasn’t one photo where he didn’t look happy, it put me at ease knowing I picked her to look after him. She did great with his meal times, giving him his daily meds and she even bathed him without me having to ask which I appreciated so much, it saved me from having to do it at home! 10/10 would recommend her, and I will be using her regularly now for vacations.”

Lauren was wonderful! She was incredibly friendly, communicative, and accommodating throughout the entire experience. It was clear she genuinely cared about my dog and made everything easy and stress-free. I felt completely comfortable knowing my pup was in great hands. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.
Sarah did absolutely amazing with my little fur babies. This anxious mama was nervous to leave them for the first time with someone outside of my family. Quickly I became at ease since she updated with throughout the day and sent me photos of my angels. I would recommend Sarah to anyone!!

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 Isle of Palms 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 Isle of Palms.
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 Isle of Palms 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.
