“We felt very comfortable leaving Rascal with Joe and Celeste and their 2 dogs. They have a wonderful backyard, doggy door, and Rascal enjoyed his evening walks. I enjoyed the photos and updates, and hearing about how Rascal warmed up and became part of the family. We’ll be back. Thanks!!”
“Cyrus is great! He is very gentle and patient with my fur baby (Payton). She enjoys the time that she spends with Cyrus. He truly makes her comfortable. I have no worries when I leave her. I highly recommend Cyrus to anyone who is looking for a loving home away from home for their baby.”
“This was my first time ever having to leave a baby behind on vacation and I’m too happy Darlene accepted my request. My baby whom was never away from home or us, adjusted well slowly but they gained his trust. She continued to update me about him throughout the day with pictures included! Thank you again!”
“Maria took amazing care of our Labrador Harper. She had fun playing with the dogs that were there. She keeps the back door open so the dogs can come and go as they please in the huge fenced in backyard. She gets to know each dog as an individual and updates you with pictures/videos when she can. 10/10 recommend her.”
“Unfortunately, we had a change in plans and did not leave our dog with Katelyn. She was very gracious about it and refunded my payment. I met with her beforehand and she seemed a lovely person with a large, fenced in yard that my dog would love. We will keep her in mind when we need dog sitting in the future”
“Family friendly home. Fenced yard and clean. My girls were taken great care of, and I was updated through my vacation. I would recommend Amy and will be booking again.”
“Abigail was amazing, completely accommodating, and loving to our two dogs. She was fantastic at communicating before, leading up to, & thru our stay. We had multiple pics & updates per day. We felt at ease the entire time and knew our littles were cared for quite well. Thank you Abigail!!”

“We were so fortunate that Amanda was available last minute for us. We traveled from Virginia to NC to visit family with our Australian shepherd mix, Josie. We had intended to take Josie on all our outings with us. It was just way too hot to keep her out all day, so we got on Rover (we have used it at home numerous times) and were lucky enough to find Amanda. Josie enjoyed playing with her children and the family pets as well. We know she was much happier there that being out in the heat all day. Amanda responded quickly to our request and took great care of Josie. We would definitely use her again.”
“Sandi was great to work with! Very prompt in responding to messages and always sent pictures! Our dog Seemed to have had a great time having playmates as well. Will use her again on our next visit to the beach!”
“Lori is perfect we think she is great and our dogs love her. We give her tips in cash so she gets it right away. We are very thankful we found Lori she lives very close and she cares about our fur babies”
“Trina was perfect! She was so accommodating of our drop off/pick up schedule. She sent frequent pictures and updates of our dog. If we stay in Myrtle Beach again for a vacation, Ollie will 100% be staying with Trina. Highly recommend!!”
“Another great stay with Jacklyn ! I never worry about my dog when she’s under her care. I know she is safe and gets lots of attention . Thanks again ! We’ll see you soon !”
“Abigail did an amazing job caring for our senior dog. She was patient, attentive, and truly thoughtful with his needs. It gave us peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. We’ll definitely be using her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring sitter.”
“Best dog vacay host I've used yet!!! She did amazing with my rescue dog that is very timid. My dog didn't want to leave! She also gives great tips and advise about dogs. If you are in Myrtle beach in need of a dog sitter Jenna is BEST choice.”
“Karla was great to work with and my dog Tucker seemed very happy. The communication was easy and Karla sent plenty of pictures to keep me up to date with how Tucker was doing. I recommend her!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Live Oak home-away-from-home, 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 Live Oak.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Live Oak 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 , 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 .
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.
