“Saffron made us feel so comfortable about leaving our little dog with her. She sent regular updates videos and pics to reassure us that he was happy and busy. We would definitely use her again!”


“My experience with this sitter has been excellent. She genuinely cares about my dog and treats him as if he were her own! Even though my Dog and I just met her, she treated us both with more love, kindness and compassion than my own blood family! I definitely would recommend her 10/10! 🫶🏻”


“Vilma has a great space for canine kids. She was accommodating with my schedule and was really good with my pups at our meet and greet. I knew they would love playing in the fenced back yard and be in good hands.”



“Kathy was a great host to my pup. She was very professional and took great care of Ollie. She sent updates / photos regularly which was a nice touch. I would definitely recommend her to anyone, and would be glad to have her watch Ollie again!”


“Richard and his dog Henry made my dog Dez feel at home. I couldn’t have been happier with the experience. From the start, Richard was communicative and attentive. He took time to meet Dez and learn about his routine. Throughout the stay, I received regular updates with pictures of Dez. I highly recommend Richard to anyone looking for reliable and caring pet care.”


“Hannah took great care of Winston! She was very considerate of making sure he was comfortable and she sent lots of updates and pictures. Would definitely recommend Hannah to a friend.”


“Jamie and Alec were amazing!!! They were so kind, caring, and loving toward my high energy baby! Lucky absolutely loved them and their cutie pup, Dodger, too. They even gave him his own little Thanksgiving feast of chicken and a pumpkin licky mat….so precious and kind. I can’t wait to book with them again in the future!”



“Highly recommend Mary Anne. Very detailed, knowledable and friendly. Great with communication and photos. Our pup Rex looks forward to future visits with Mary Anne and her two dogs!”


“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 .”



“Carrie and Moo were the absolute best with our baby! They went on walks and adventures and Carrie sent pictures and updates daily! I felt so comfortable knowing my baby was in such good hands!”


“Excellent Care! My dog Lucy and I loved our experience while boarding her in John’s home! So many positives to say. I had an immediate need due to an injury and he was so flexible in working with me on the timing of my arrival because I needed to take an Uber to his home. I was anxious because I had never boarded her with anyone. His calmness and patience with My Lucy during Meet and Greet was reassuring that this was the perfect person to care for her. She started bonding with him within the first 5 minutes! My Lucy is an overanxious dog with separation anxiety . John spoke to her in soft voice. His large, fenced backyard is tranquil with scattered trees. He provided regular updates that included videos of Lucy playing in his backyard so I was never worried about her while she was away from me. He even shared his techniques to calm her in stressful situations while we are at home. So, when I needed to extend Lucy’s stay with him so I could continue to recuperate, I did without any worries. Highly recommend John to other Pet Parents!”


“We just love sending our pups to Bootsie’s house. She and her husband are amazing caretakers and we know that our sweet ladies are in good hands when we go out of town!”


“Melinda is absolutely wonderful!! This was my dog's longest stay away from home and I am so happy she was with Melinda. She sent me so many great pictures and updates and Lily had so much fun playing in her backyard and on her daily walks! Melinda walks Lily while I'm at work as well and I could not recommend her enough. I will definitely be taking my dog to Melinda for future boarding :)”


“Theresa was beyond fabulous in her care for our Remy! Very communicative and sent lots of photos while we were away. He was in great shape when we picked him up and I think actually misses Theresa and her husband and all their attention :) high recommend and we will be booking again”


About: Hey y'all! I'm Max and I love animals! I'm a full-time volunteer specialist with a national animal welfare nonprofit and a former big dog volunteer with a local shelter. I recently lost my soul dog, Omi, after caring for her the last 11 years. I'm not ready to adopt another dog, but I am ready to provide quality care to other pets. While my old lady was with us, we found the best Rover sitter and I want to be that person for your pet. The person you know you can count on to give your baby love, attention, and quality care while you're away! I have experience with seniors and dogs of all ages and sizes. My favorites are the small seniors with spice, but I don't discriminate ;) Feel free to reach out with any questions. Happy to do a meet and greet! Your pet will be in good hands with me. I work from home full-time during the day and am currently at nail school for a few hours during the evening from 4-7:30 M-Th, ending at the end of August. I’m pretty much home most of the time, allowing for potty breaks and walks (as long as weather permits!). When I had my dog, I loved going to parks, downtown, or just around our complex on a walking path. My dog was my life and I was a very attentive pet parent. She also sometimes needed her space, and I respected that. Each animal is different, and I’m prepared to approach care in a way that works best for your baby. But, I’m very much a "pets are allowed on the bed" person. :P I also love good communication, so my line will always be open while you're away.

“Melody and her family are the perfect “home away from home”! Melody sent pics, vids and updates that helped us feel rest assured…and our senior cockapoo was clearly having a great time whether he was at play or just relaxing. We will definitely be using Melody again!!”

Johns Island pet parents share their Rover experiences
Kaylie went so far above and beyond for our pup! I wasn't sure if he would want to come home in the end after being at her doggie resort haha. She filled his day with treats and trips to the park along with her adorable dogs who all got along great. We would highly recommend Kaylie and will be using her again.

Melinda is amazing as always! She's very attentive to my pup Leia and keeps me updated throughout the day. She has been able to administer Leia both oral pills and her inhaler. We've had Leia stay with Melinda a few times now and we've always had the BEST experience. I highly recommend her to anyone!

Lizzie and Kevin were amazing! They took in our dog, Olive, on short notice and were incredibly gracious. They clearly loved having her and kept us updated with plenty of pictures, which gave us great peace of mind. We truly appreciated their care and would definitely use them again!
