“Connie was the most amazing dog sitter for our two corgi’s while we were out of town celebrating our wedding and honeymoon! Given the importance of our events and why we needed to engage a dog sitter, Connie truly lifted such a stress off of our plates! We knew our dogs were in great hands and enjoyed her updates throughout our trip! I would highly recommend Connie to all assessing her services! She is extremely sweet, kind and loving and treats your fur babies as though they were her own!”
“Rosie had a great time with Carly and her family. She responded quickly to questions, posted pictures and gave daily updates. Our dog even had a good time with the other dogs that were there too. We would use her again. Thank you, Carly!”
“We cannot say enough good things about Bootsie and Tom!! They are simply the nicest people and they took the BEST care of our dog while we were out of town for a wedding. As this was the first time we had ever left our dog in someone else’s care we were extremely nervous…we definitely had NO reason to be as he was in the very best hands while we were away! Bootsie and Tom provided us pictures and detailed updates and were extremely responsive to any messages we sent. We will ABSOLUTELY use their services again! Thanks again for such a great long weekend for our little guy!”
“Stephen and Jessica were very accommodating and responsive. They took great care of Cork! He enjoyed playing with their two dogs and going on walks. We’d book with them again in a heartbeat.”
“Jennifer did a great job of taking care of my boy Sailor. Her communication was off the chain great and she sent lots of pics making sure that I knew he was doing great. I trust Jennifer whole heartedly with my boy and will choose her again the next time I travel and can’t bring my boy with me. Again! I can’t thank you enough. I think Sailor was sad to leave.”
“Alyssa was so great! Sent regular updates with pics/videos and she was so patient with my dog who takes a little time to warm up. Gave me peace of mind knowing he was in good hands while I was away!”
“Willow had the most fantastic time with Shannon and Scout! She sent lots of pictures and updates including walks, play time, and nap time! Shannon was great to communicate with and flexible to work with drop off and pick up times. 100% would recommend!”
“Tonianne kept us informed of how our puppy was doing the whole time. We felt very comfortable knowing he was well taken care of. We will definitely book with her again.”
“Thanks for taking great care of our boys! Was our first time using a Rover since moving to Charleston and we had a great experience. I had a few flight delays and one of my dachshunds was not the best behaved but Lynn was very communicative and understanding”
“Julia was awesome! I went down to Charleston for the weekend and wanted to bring my pup but leave her somewhere close so she didn’t have to be in a hotel by herself while we did tourist activities. She was super flexible with us with pickup times and very responsive to messages. I’d love to rebook with her and her sweet pup again if I’m back in the area.”
“Meg was so patient with our boys and provided feedback every single day. She was flexible with our flight being delayed for original pick up times and was sensitive to each of their needs and able to judge how they interacted with other dogs and accommodate if needed”
“Sarah took great care of our dog. He seemed genuinely happy, relaxed, well rested and well fed when we picked him up. This was our first time using Rover and it was hands down the best decision we made for our dog while we were out of town. Sarah provided lots of pictures and updates. We’re very happy to have found Sarah and highly recommend her.”
“Sassy had a wonderful time staying with John and Faith while we were out of town. They were so loving and attentive and spoiled her rotten the way we do! I love that! They sent lots of pictures while we were away to keep us updated on how she was doing. I highly recommend and I will definitely be using them again in the future.”
“Fran took good care of my cat and provided timely status updates to me. I was initially nervous when she mentioned a dog in the house at the same time which was not communicated previously, but it all worked out. In the future I recommend letting the pet owner know if there will be additional pets especially since this can be a safety issue. Overall, I was very satisfied with the service.”
“Sarah was great from planning a stay to having to change up the stay plans last minute. She sent us pictures of our dog & kept us updated! Our pup came back happy as can be and we would definitely have Sarah watch her again!!”
“This was my first time using the Rover service and I could not have asked for a better experience. Kelly provided me with the cutest pictures and updates throughout Boris' entire stay. I could tell she really enjoyed having him and that he was comfortable and happy when he was with her. The day before I dropped him off, his vet let me know Boris had an ear infection. Without skipping a beat, Kelly said that administering his meds would be no problem. I could tell she was paying special attention to him because she immediately alerted me to possible side effects of the medication, and I was able to have him seen ASAP. When I came to get him, she even sent him off with the sweetest doggie bag & loads of compliments. I know Boris can’t wait for his next stay with Kelly!”
“Fallon and RJ are heaven sent! My dog was well taken care of tired out when picked up which is always a plus! Their dog Skye and Phoenix gets along fantastically, I was given updates and pictures and I never had to worry about out him while he is with them or continue with my helicopter parenting they simply are the best!”
“Thank you Abigail and family for watching our goldendoodle during the holidays! It was a great fit and she returned home happy and healthy and we appreciated the schedule flexibility and daily updates. Thanks!”

Rachel is the absolute best! She watched our border collie, Izzi, or 10 days. It was hard to be away from our girl for that long. but we felt like Izzi was very well cared for the entire time. Her home is clean and organized and her sweet dog Ava and Izzi became fast friends. During the heat Rachel made homage popsicles and brought out the kiddie pool… always going the extra mile. Very highly recommended.
Cameron was once again great with Charlotte! When we had a last-minute flight change and needed to drop Charlotte earlier than planned the next morning, Cameron responded immediately, despite it being late at night. We really appreciate how responsive and accommodating he is. Thanks, Cameron!
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.

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.
