“Connie was very communicative before and during my dog’s stay with her, and I felt very comfortable leaving him in her care. He seemed to enjoy his stay (especially spending time in her nice, sunny back yard) and we will be booking with Connie again.”
“Alyssa was phenomenal! My dog can be a bit energetic (understatement…) upon meeting new people, but Alyssa stayed super calm while my dog ran in circles around her house until she finally wore herself out. Alyssa was kind and gracious and sent lots of pictures and loved on my crazy pup like she was her own! I truly cannot recommend her enough!”
“Kaylie and Jonathan took excellent care of our dog Maple while we were out of town for 12 days. They provided tons of photos and updates. Maple looked like she had a wonderful time. Thanks so much!!”
“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!”

“Sharon is a Gem!! She went well out of her way to take care of my senior diabetic dog and can’t thank her enough!!! This was the first time I left my dog with a sitter after being diagnosed diabetic and I didn’t worry at all because I knew he was in good hands. Sharon genuinely cares about your pup and she is one of the nicest people I have met. Sharon thank you so much for taking great care of Rudy so I could enjoy my son’s wedding weekend !!”
“Genny did an incredible job caring for my girl, Doris, while I was out of town for a few weeks. Genny gave multiple updates every day. Was always quick to reply to my messages. I felt 100% confident in her ability to care for my pup, she listened to my care instructions and followed them to a T. Genny absolutely spoiled my dog and I am looking forward to continuing to work with Genny in the future whenever I go out of town. She is the best of the best. I highly recommend Genny for all of your pet boarding needs!”

We received frequent updates and plenty of pictures, which we really appreciated. They were also incredibly easy to communicate and coordinate with from start to finish. We wouldn’t hesitate to leave Louis with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring, reliable sitters!”
“First time boarding my dogs and chose Amanda. She was fantastic! I was very nervous since my older dog is my shadow, has a torn ACL, and is with me all the time since I’m a stay-at-home mom. Amanda sent plenty of updates and pictures each day to reassure me my dogs were doing well. It was so nice to not worry about them. They were safe and I know she took great care of them, making them feel at home in her home. If I could rate her an extra star I would!”

“Michelle was great with my Boxer Scarlett. Had to go out of town unexpectedly and my dog has never spent the night away and she is 4 yrs old . From pickup to updates and her understanding my Scarlett may have some anxiety separation I knew I didn’t have to worry . I will definitely use Michelle again my pup most certainly loved her .”

“Jeanne was great with my pup. She sent regular pictures and made me feel comfortable knowing he was well cared for. Not only was she always responsive, she showed a depth of knowledge regarding canine body language that made me know Kilo would be safe and cared for in my absence!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Johns Island
Cynthia was awesome! Sent pics and spoiled my little “baby” with the comfort she requires!! The family member that I had to go pick her up said that my little dog was sad to go home. Haha! Thank you for taking good care of her! We will definitely be using Cynthia again!!
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.
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.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Johns Island on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of August 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 .

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.
