Top rated Kiawah Island doggy day care sitters

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life—starting with two sweet black labs, Quarter and Ruby, who were part of my childhood pack. We also had a sassy long-haired mini dachshund named Daisy, who ruled the house. These early experiences taught me how to feed, care for, and understand dogs of all sizes and personalities. Today, I’m the proud “fun dog aunt” to my siblings’ pups: Bentley (a lab/Rottweiler mix), and Lemon (a long-haired mini dachshund). Our family recently adopted Lemon’s parents too, so I’ve seen it all from puppies to seniors, big breeds to little ones. I’ve dog-sat for friends and family countless times and genuinely love spending time with animals. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or just a cuddle on the couch, your pet will be treated like family. I’m currently in school full-time to become a CRNA, which means I’m often studying during the day, but the beauty of that is flexibility! I’m typically in Mount Pleasant, downtown Charleston, Isle of Palms, or James Island, and I can adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs. Study breaks are perfect for walks, playtime, or home visits. Just let me know what your pet needs, I’m happy to work around it! Whether I’m in your home or welcoming your pet into mine, I always prioritize safety, trust, and comfort. I follow feeding and medication instructions closely, make sure pets are never left unsupervised in unsafe areas, and maintain a calm, structured environment. I’m respectful of your space and your pet’s routine, and I send frequent photo updates so you can relax knowing your fur baby is happy and cared for. I treat every dog like my own (if I had one!), and I’ll make sure yours feels loved and secure while you’re away.

“Kaylie took such great care of my pup and always kept me updated throughout the day! She went above and beyond to make sure he was taken care of. If you’re looking for a sitter I highly recommend her!”


“Christina was amazing with my puppy Freddie! She is clearly very experienced with dog watching and did an amazing job. Freddie had a great day, and I really appreciated the photo updates. When I brought him home, he was so relaxed and sleepy from a day full of fun and activities! We will definitely be booking with her again!”


“Buster and Boo loved their time with Julia!! They seemed excited to go back on the second day. Julia has such a great space, inside and out, for them to run and play. In addition, she did multiple walks each day on leash. They were worn out, in a good way, when we picked them up. We highly recommend Julia if you are in the area!”


“This was the first time I used Kim & Dylan for doggy daycare for Reba & Willow. We did have a meet & greet prior to our first day of doggy daycare & They were amazing with my dogs. Kim & Dylan were very accommodating & attentive to Reba & Willow. Reba can be a bit nervous and Willow can be a bit over excited and they made both dogs feel comfortable. Both dogs were very happy & tired when I picked them up. I highly recommend Kim & Dylan and I would not hesitate to use them for doggy daycare (again) or boarding.”


“Our Lady had so much fun at day care. We were given updates on her and felt comfortable with her in Kat’s care. We would definitely book this service again!”


“My dog Magnolia has a great time staying with Matt and Ashley! She had plenty of playtime with their dog Marshmallow which was great. I got lots of pictures and updates throughout the day, and I really appreciated that. Great experience!”


“I left my puppy Lila with Hannah for the day and it worked out so great! She sent me lots of updates and photos throughout the day so I knew my pup was in good hands. Lila had so much fun playing with the other dogs I would definitely leave her there again! So convenient, highly recommend!”


About: We have over 15 years of experience raising and caring for dogs. We pride ourselves in providing top notch comfort and care for your furry friends! At least one of us is present and with your pet(s) at all times as I work from my home office. This ensures your pet(s) will get a lot of attention and made comfortable in a new environment. We do require meet n' greets for all new clients to ensure your pet(s) are a good match for us and our home, as well as a fit for our senior golden retriever, Jax. We do not accept aggressive dogs of any kind, dogs who cannot be left alone for 2-3 hours unsupervised, or dogs who knowingly stress easily and destroy household items and belongings. We have years of experience caring for younger puppies all the way up to older, senior dogs who require a lot of care and attention. We just ask you are transparent with us from the beginning regarding temperament and any special requirements. Between my husband and I, one of us is always at home as we are both self-employed and own our own businesses. We have more than enough time throughout the day to care for your pet and provide them with the love and attention they deserve. We have a beautiful fenced in back yard for exercise and play time either solo or with our golden retriever, Jax, and also provide crates if required.

“Amanda was great with my dog, Penny! She was very accommodating and sent lots of pictures during Penny’s daycare stay! We will definitely be using her again!”



About: I grew up with multiple dogs and cats in every household. There's nothing I love more in life than a furry friend. I have a dog (chihuahua) named Donnie and two kitties, Mo Mo and Dexy. They're my world! I also help care for my sisters two larger dogs when she is working or goes out of town. We love to go running on the beach and hiking at Carolina Beach State Park! I used to work for a pet sitting company in the town I'm from, so I'm very familiar and comfortable with many common occurrences; such as administering medication and injections, handling timid and shy dogs, as well as rowdy and hyper dogs. I do not discriminate on size or breed!! It would be my pleasure to help you and your fur babies! I have a very flexible schedule that I make myself. I can easily adjust this schedule as need be, as well as add in stops on a short notice. I can care for your fur baby as needed in my home or in yours! I’m aware that all fur babies have different needs and I do my best to accommodate them.


“Rachel took great care of Snowy for the day. She was responsive and flexible when we arrived a bit early on both ends. Snowy loved playing with Bear and Panda, an added bonus!”


About: I have plenty of time to give your pet the TLC he/she deserves. I usually walk dogs three times a day, with the afternoon walk being on the trails or a visit to the dog park. I have an outdoor screened porch that dogs and cats love to sun on. I have a small yard space, but the Potty Park is across from me. I will love and care for your pet as if they were mine! I’m retired. Available all day. Love animals. I am responsible and caring. I have a comfortable home to share with your furry friend. ❤️💕❤️ call me! I have a nice dog park and 8 miles of walking trails in my neighborhood. The neighborhood is sprayed for fleas in the dog areas and park. People are very respectful of their pets in my community! We all love each other's fur babies.

“Thank you again for being so caring while Georgia was struggling with the thunderstorms!!”


“Isabelle was fantastic - she took such great care of Louis kept us informed at all times and Louis just absolutely loved her. Will for sure use her again !!”

About: We are a young married couple who have used Rover often for own dog and looking to watch other dogs when we are not traveling. I have grown up with dogs all my life and currently have a 4 year old boston terrier/frenchie mix who is the love of our lives. He is very lively and always looking for a playmate. We will treat your pup like our own with frequent breaks in our fenced in yard and walks around the neighborhood after work. Pets are allowed on the furniture. I work from home so I am available to the pups all day and if I need to leave the house it is never for more than 4-5 hours. Will watch one dog at a time, willing to take a second if it is from the same family.

About: Ive taken care of many dogs big and small since I was very young. I know and understand all of their different personalities. My friends and family relied on me to take care of their pets when needed as I make the pets feel comfortable and right at home I'm currently working remote full time so my schedule is flexible and can step away at any time for bathroom breaks and walks. Boarding and overnight stays available with advance notice. I'm in an apartment but I have 1 small dog that I care for and take her outside constantly and take breaks for feeding and playtime. I will provide the same service in your home as well making your pet the number 1 priority.

“Absolutely fantastic, I highly recommend Ted to other dog owners.”


About: I love dogs and cats. I have grown up with both all my life and have a dog now. I live on kiawah and am available often! I am a stay at home person with lots of time who takes care of her dog and walks her daily. I would do the same for yours. I have a fenced in area that your dog could use to potty. I would also allow your dog to go wherever my dog does. Treat them like a part of the family

About: Dogs have been part of our life forever, and now we share our adventures with our playful 2.5-year-old Catahoula Leopard Dog! We’re pros at beach zoomies, exploring trails at John’s Island County Park, and playing with our friends at the dog park. Your furry friend will be treated like part of the pack—playtime, snuggles, and endless tail wags guaranteed! Your dog(s) can have their own separate comfortable suite in our home or can mingle and play as much as they'd like with our pup, whichever you/they prefer! Conveniently located on your way to Kiawah/Seabrook Island, we are here to make your time away from home comfortable and convenient! We have a unique living situation where we live above the bicycle shop we own so one of us will be “home” most of the days. Our schedules aren’t consistent but if we aren’t “home” running the shop, we won’t be away from home for longer than 3 hours at a time. In our home, pets are treated like family, and every day is a new adventure! The mornings always kick off with fetch in our yard. While we’re in the process of building a fence, our yard is tucked away off the road, next to a quiet driveway leading to a storage facility—plenty of space to play safely! Our dog (and yours, if you’re comfortable) then heads to work at the bicycle shop, where she’s the official greeter and mood booster, soaking up love from coworkers (furry ones and human ones) and guests. Midday breaks are all about chasing tennis balls and soaking in extra snuggles. After work, the real fun begins! We head to John’s Island County Park’s dog park or Beachwalker Park for epic sunset zoomies on the beach. Your pup will enjoy endless playtime, love, and adventure with us—it’s a tail-wagging good time every single day! Your dog(s) can join in on all the fun with the other pups and people or can be kept separate while still being comfortable, getting lots of play, and all the love they need!

“Caroline is Lemon’s absolute favorite human. From the moment they met, Caroline has been the ultimate dog aunt—always ready for a beach adventure, a couch cuddle, or a Target run that ends in a pup cup. She’s incredibly reliable and attentive. Whether it’s a long walk or backyard zoomies, Lemon is always happy, tired, and well-loved after time with her. I trust Caroline with Lemon completely—she’s the kind of sitter every pet parent dreams of”
