About: I have a friendly, easy going labradoodle (not high energy) who would love to have a friend around. The yard is fenced in, I work from home, and we typically go on 3-4 walks a day. On a good weather day we’ll drive 5 minutes to IOP and have a beach walk. Your dog would get the exact same care I give mine. They can play all day inside and sleep where they want. Work from home Monday through Friday 9-5 but take plenty of breaks to go outside for walks or play fetch. At night I’m mostly chilling so hopefully your dog likes Netflix! I have a fenced in yard big enough for them to exhaust themselves if they want. If not, the daily walks should cover that. And I’m open to crating them at night or letting them sleep on the couch/bed if they’re comfortable.
About: As a lifelong dog lover, I offer reliable and flexible dog sitting services in your home or mine. I'm trustworthy, compassionate and love dogs. I have owned Dachshunds for many years, as well as a big, lovable hound. And, seniors have a special place in my heart. I am experienced and flexible, with decades spent in the corporate world before dedicating myself to caring for pets. I am available for drop-in visits, walks, or daycare and overnight stays in my home. I live on Goat Island, which is only accessible by boat and has no cars. I pick-up at Isle of Palms marine on my skiff. My property includes a large yard and the island has a 3-mile sand road for walks. I always leash guests' pets and have one friendly Dachshund (Smalls). I'm happy to crate dogs if needed and prioritize keeping your dog's routine with walks, feeding, medication, playtime, and plenty of fun and snuggles.
“Here’s a polished review you can use: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding Dog Sitter! I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received. From the very beginning, she was professional, reliable, and genuinely caring. My dog was comfortable, happy, and well cared for while we were at dinner, which gave me complete peace of mind. I appreciated the regular updates, photos, and communication throughout the stay. It was clear that my dog received plenty of attention and affection. I returned home to a relaxed and happy dog. I highly recommend Carla to anyone looking for trustworthy, loving care for their furry family member. I will definitely book with her again! 🐾💙”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, and I genuinely love getting to know each pet’s personality, routine, and comfort level. I provide mindful, intentional care with plenty of walks, potty breaks, playtime, photos, and updates so you can feel confident while you’re away! I’m naturally very attentive and want every dog to feel safe, loved, and understood. Some dogs want constant play and adventure, some need time to warm up, and others just want a calm, cozy space to relax. I adjust my care based on their energy, personality, and routine so they feel comfortable instead of overwhelmed. For boarding and day care, I offer a separate pet friendly playroom where your pet can settle in, decompress, and feel at home. This gives them space to explore at their own pace and ease into a new environment comfortably. I only take on what I can handle well, so your pet gets thoughtful, personalized attention. My clients often mention that I’m responsive, communicative, caring, and responsible, and that their pets feel comfortable with me. That trust means the world to me, and I take it seriously. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and ages, and I always appreciate details about feeding, medications, behavior, leash habits, energy level, and how your dog does around other pets. My goal is simple: safe, loving, premium care that keeps your pet happy and keeps you fully updated for peace of mind. I have a flexible schedule and do my best to build each booking around your pet’s normal routine. I’m available throughout the week and on weekends, and I like to review care details ahead of time so I can make sure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and settled. For boarding and day care, I plan my day around walks, potty breaks, playtime, rest, and updates based on your pet’s energy level and needs. For house sitting and drop ins, I keep routines as consistent as possible so your pet and home feel cared for while you’re away. I only take on what I can handle well, so every pet gets thoughtful attention instead of feeling like just another booking. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I take the time to understand their personality, behavior, needs, and any special instructions so I can care for them in a way that feels familiar and reassuring. In my home, pets have a calm, clean, pet friendly environment with a separate playroom where they can settle in, decompress, and explore at their own pace. I’m thoughtful about introductions, personal space, potty breaks, walks, rest time, and keeping each pet comfortable without overwhelming them. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat the space with the same respect and attention I would want in my own. I’m mindful with doors, locks, routines, feeding instructions, medications, updates, and anything else that helps you feel confident while you’re away. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you know your pet is safe, comfortable, and cared for with real attention.
“Lucy had a nice visit and great play time with Maverick. Morgan is very flexible with drop off and pick up time when we visit Charleston and need some doggie daycare while we visit downtown. I highly recommend her for your pup.”

“Our two boys stayed with Josh and his two daughters for a few hours while we did things in the area that we couldn’t do with the dogs. We appreciate Josh being a little flexible as, due to traffic, our time adjusted a half hour later than we had told him initially. Our dogs had a wonderful time! The girls kept them entertained for a few hours. I believe they must’ve played with our two dogs the whole time, because our dogs were happy and tired when we got them back. We would definitely use Josh again and highly recommend him!”

“Natasha did a wonderful job with my elderly dog. Pepper can be a ton of work but Natasha exceeded my expectations. I felt very comfortable with Pepper being with Natasha. I can’t say thank you enough.”
“This was Sadie’s first time at daycare with Leigh Ann and Matt and I think she had a great day playing with their dog, Biscuit. We are looking forward to her first boarding next week.”

“Jessica was great! She took on our Rosie last minute and gave her lots of love and attention. She also sent us photos and video updates throughout the day. We knew she would love her when she accepted treats from her right when she met Jessica. She never does that.”

“Natalie was amazing with our Addi! She was able to host our dog on super late notice after our sitter cancelled (Natalie agreed to watch our dog one day beforehand!) Her dog was the sweetest ever and made such a good playmate for our dog. She was super accommodating and our Addi came home exhausted from the fun activities Natalie did with her! ❤️❤️”


“Kelly is absolutely fantastic!! We were in such a pinch and needed last minute daycare, and she was so flexible and helpful!! Lego loved staying with her so much. Couldn’t recommend her more!!”

About: Dogs and cats have always been a part of my life as well as my Husbands. My mom used to tell me I had a soothing way with animals. At age 9 I began helping neighbors with their pets. When older I began helping friends and family with their pets doing house visits or keeping them at my house when they had to be away. I even served as a board member for the Humane Society when I lived in Georgia. My husband grew up with larger dogs his entire life and has never been without a pet. He’s a real softy when it comes to animals! I work 10-4, Mon - Fri. so I have early morning and evenings available to help with pets. My husband helps out during the middle of the day as he is semi-retired. I am available to board in our house, do home visits and/or house sit (house sit on weekends only). I have two dogs and a cat. My fur babies are easy-going and laid-back and get lots of TLC from me and my husband, which we would love to extend to your pet as well! Because we have watched family and friends animals in our home our pets are used to having other dogs around. We live in a townhome development that has lots of dogs. Although the area is not fenced, it is laid out for pet lovers. There are sidewalks to walk around the development and doggy waste stations throughout. My husband and I also enjoy taking our pets to the beach to walk and play, which we would be happy to do with your pet too!
About: Hello! I know that our pets matter so much to us, and I want to give your pet the best care while you’re away! I love animals at every age, in every condition, and at all weights (chunky dogs and cats especially appreciated)! I have experience caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, frogs (yes, really), turtles, birds, and hamsters! I am comfortable administering topical medication as well, and am willing to learn with any other types of medications your pets may need. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions about my experience! I’m very flexible with times and dates! I recently moved back to Mt. Pleasant to help care for a sick family member, so my schedule is incredibly flexible and I am able to do last-minute bookings easily. I believe in safety first when it comes to pets, so leashes will be secured before leaving your home for walks. All doors will stay shut to prevent any escapes as well.

“Amy was great! She took great care of our 8 month old, high energy, puppy Wesley. She kept us updated with photos throughout the day and took great care of him. We can’t wait for his next visit”

“Our trip to Charleston was made so much easier due to finding Jennifer on Rover. She took extra goos care of my baby Chole, sendin pictures ti us through out the day. She also changed her schedule due to.my error entering the incorrect dates. I would highly recommend Jennifer for your fur babies when in the Charleston area.”

About: Hello! My name is Christie and I'm a trusted pet sitter who has been caring for family and friend's pets for 18 years, providing a safe and caring environment. I adhere to their regular feeding, walking, and medication schedule to ensure consistency while you're away. I'm skilled at administering diabetes shots to dogs and cats. I have experience caring for elderly and special needs dogs as well. Your pets will receive all the cuddles and playtime under my care. I take my dog on daily beach walks, but will confirm your dogs preferences before bringing them along. I'm open to long-term pet sitting and have been hired for out-of-state pet care. I have a 5-year-old, 15lb dog Stanley who accompanies me on all sitting adventures. He loves other dogs and spends his day mostly being a lounge lizard, loves his toys and daily walks. I work from home Monday through Friday so your pet will get a lot of attention and outside time while under my care. I take out pets every 2-4 hours for potty breaks and fresh air. I want your pet's schedule to continue 'as is' while you're away. I treat your home as if it were my own and respect your space and privacy while providing your pet with care and love.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Isle of Palms
This was a first daycare experience for my girls and I had some concerns about how they would handle being away from "mama". Well, my worries disappeared when Richard sent photos of my Stella & Journee chillaxin' with their new 4 legged friends!, and everyone looked very happy. I will not hesitate to use (and recommend) Richard again! Thank you Richard, for easing my mind.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Isle of Palms
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Isle of Palms on Rover is $33.3 per day (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of June 2026, there are 701 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Isle of Palms. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Isle of Palms 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 701 sitters in Isle of Palms, 86% 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.
