“Lea is always the best host for my two goldens, they come home so happy and tired from all the walks and play and have the best time with her. 1000% always recommend and couldn’t be more grateful for her and her care!”
“Connie was amazing with sassy she kept us informed of how sassy was settling in and she sent pictures daily. She took her own walks, gave medication if needed and sassy felt immediately safe with her. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone. Had everything packed up when it was time for us to pick her up.”
“Alyssa was amazing!! I was very happy with her great communication and how well she took care of our senior german shepherd pup ! She was super caring and attentive to make sure our dog had the best possible care. I recommend her highly and can’t wait to continue to use her for our future stays.”
“Kaylie and Jonathan took great care of our little doodle! They sent us daily pictures to keep us updated while we were away which was much appreciated. Would highly recommend to others!”
“Kimberly and Dylan have been wonderful with Tucker. When we leave him with them we have the peace of mind knowing he is well cared for. They take him on walks and play with him as if he was their own. Highly recommend them!”
“We couldn’t be more grateful for Genny and the care she provided to our newly rescued dog while we were away! From the start, it was clear he was in good hands. Genny has such a deep love for her "fur babies," and it was evident that she treated our dog as her own (she also has the sweetest little dog that makes everyone feel at home). Our dog was still adjusting to his new life, and we were hesitant about leaving him with anyone during such a sensitive time, especially since we had already planned a two-week trip before we decided to adopt him. But Genny handled everything with so much love, patience, and grace. She truly created the perfect environment for him to rest, relax, and ease into his new routine- even helped him learn basic commands. We loved receiving daily photos and updates that gave us peace of mind knowing that he was getting all the attention and care he needed. The kindness and exceptional care she provided made all the difference, and we’ll definitely be using her services again in the future. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate sitter who goes above and beyond.”
“Sharon (and her husband Mike) were absolutely wonderful with our cockapoo, Millie, and are an incredibly nice couple who truly enjoy dogs. Millie stayed with them for 5 days/4 nights so that we could visit relatives in MA. They bonded with her immediately at our Meet and Greet and nothing was too much for them during her stay; they made sure she got lots of tummy rubs and couch time combined with frequent games of fetching balls in their great backyard, sending frequent photos. Millie and their Heidi ended up being happy companions - after an early spat when Millie thought her dogfood was in danger - but Shannon and Mike quickly got that sorted out. They are very careful about dog safety which I really appreciate. Millie will definitely be returning!”
“Sarah spoiled our two fur babies! They had a blast! We got daily updates with pictures. We couldn’t recommend Sarah more! Will definitely be booking her again our next out of town trip!”
“Carly was straightforward to work with. My dog Ted came home happy and healthy. Carly sent photos of Ted, often communicating how he was doing. I would highly recommend her and will use her again.”
“PJ had the best time with their sweet family! He loved getting to run around the yard and hangout with their sweet kids. Highly recommend Abby and her family. We could truly enjoy our getaway knowing our little man was in great hands!”
“Lynn provided the best care for our Ponce and Lola! Both of our dogs thoroughly enjoyed playing with Lynn's dog articus. One of our dog was struggling with some anxiety when he first arrived at Lynn's, she was kind, caring, and provided us regular updates. She even allowed our pups to sleep on her bed at night, I'm sure that made them feel more at home! I would highly recommend Lynn for your puppies boarding needs.”
“Andrew and Frank were truly the sweetest dog sitters we could have asked for. They treated my dog, Scout, like he was their own, and I never had a single worry while we were away. They sent the cutest photos and updates, and it was so clear how loved and happy he was. Scout even made a new best friend, Jax, and I can tell he misses him already! Leaving Scout over Christmas and on his birthday was so hard, but I just know Andrew and Frank gave him the best day. We can’t wait to book a playdate and will absolutely be using them again. I highly recommend booking with Andrew and Frank”
“Caitlin, her husband Thad, their baby and Cloe (their pup) took the best care of Buddy and Daisy. The pups looked so happy in all the pictures Caitlin sent. They kept in touch, kept us informed, and we felt so assured that they were in good hands. We are very fortunate to have found Caitlin!”
“Stephanie took excellent care of Toby over the weekend. She sent pictures, videos and updates. I was always confident that Toby was well taken care of while under her care. I highly recommend Stephanie if you need a great caretaker for your dog Toby will be returning to her home for another puppy vacation soon!”
“Rebecca was great! She sent lots of pictures and even dressed Hudson up for a cute holiday photo. She always kept in contact and I know Hudson was in great hands. Would definitely hire her again!”
“Our two older boys came with us to Charleston for a family vacation. Our accommodations were not pet friendly but I wanted them to be nearby as they can be anxious when alone for extended periods. Anna and her husband were great and kept us updated on our boys all week. I could tell they felt right at home. She made sure they had what they needed and her home was great for my boys and similar to what they were used to at home. She sent me frequent updates and photos throughout the week. We appreciate her loving them like her own and will definitely use her services again if in the area with the pups! I recommend her for any family who wants their pups to be safe and happy while they are vacationing- I had peace of mind the whole time we were away!”
“Nadra was an all around amazing sitter! We had a nice meet & greet so that my dog was comfortable going to her house prior to the sit. She has a nice big yard and my girl just loved it. Nadra sent daily updates and pictures! She was very responsive! I highly recommend her and will definitely seek her services in the future.”
“What huge blessing Amanda and her family are. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our dogs while we went on our honeymoon. We had never left our dogs long term at someone else’s home, and we were nervous to leave them for 18 days. Amanda and her family agreed to board our dogs on short notice. They were knowledgeable, confident, and laid back during the meet and greet. They handled our high energy dogs with ease. We received updates, Easter pictures, bedtime pictures and playtime pictures while we were away. Our worries were eased. Our dogs had a great time with Amanda. Her family is awesome - her sons and husband even helped us carry our dog’s belongings in and out during drop off and pickup. Upon pickup, our dogs are happy, tired and it seems they actually miss being at Amanda’s home! We will definitely be returning!”
“John was a fantastic sitter for my two dogs! Communication was great, I received pics/videos of the dogs while I was away and they were very happy! I’d highly recommend John’s services and will be re-booking in the future!”
“Monica took such great care of our Zoe! She was relaxed and happy when we picked her up and Monica made it drop off and pick up super easy. It looked like Zoe had a wonderful time from all the pictures. Thank you!!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Johns Island
Sharon and her husband Mike were the absolute best!! This was my first time leaving my puppy, Lucy, with someone, and they made it so much easier for us both! Sharon was very communicative and sent pictures and updates all weekend. Lucy and their dog Heidi had the best time playing together. They went above and beyond for Lucy, I could not recommend anyone more!!
Cayce was absolutely amazing. She sent a ton of pictures which made me feel so happy to see and know that my puppy was doing good. She texted me updates and let me know how my dog was doing with other dogs etc. I absolutely will be using Cayce again and I highly recommend her!
Marie is without a doubt, the best sitter I have had the pleasure of scheduling. Right from the beginning, she was friendly and a wonderful communicator. During my pups stay she kept me informed and sent plenty of pictures throughout. I know my pup was well cared for and cannot recommend her enough.
Melody was great to work with. She communicated in a timely manner. She sent pictures when Auberon stayed with her for doggie daycare and then again for an over night. Auberon was excited to go back the second day for his overnight visit. A dog owner is always happy when their dog is happy. Leaving Auberon with Melody gave me peace of mind. It gave me a chance to visit Charleston without worrying about him. Thank you!
Allison and her family were absolutely wonderful with Sunny. They sent me daily pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away for the week. They are such a kind, caring family, and I truly felt that Sunny was loved and in the best hands the entire time. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Johns Island on Rover is $46.62 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 1,112 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Johns Island. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
94% of Johns Island sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Johns Island landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
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 Johns 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 Johns Island.
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 Johns 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.
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.
