This was my first time using Rover services, naturally I was anxious. After meeting with Joan I was immediately relieved. My Sadie was made to feel right at home and fell in love with Joan’s dog Parker. Joan was very accommodating to my schedule and very kind. I recommend her very highly

I would highly recommend Joan as an outstanding dog sitter. Joan will take care of your dog as if it was her own. Highly recommend.

Joan and Dean were awesome and our two dogs got along great with their dog Parker. We had our dogs stay with them for a few days while we went out of town and Joan sent pictures and updates every day which put our minds at ease. They are very nice people who clearly love pets and we will definitely use them in the future when we travel.

Joan did an excellent job caring for our little blind senior dog, Minnie, who is a little high maintenance. She had Minnie for 11 days while we were on vacation at a beach condo that didn’t allow dogs. Joan even gave her a bath with Minnie’s prescription shampoo. Joan has a small fenced in yard which enabled Minnie to be outside a lot, which she loves, and both Joan and her husband were very sweet with her, even then she howled the first day from missing us. Joan sent pictures/video/messages regularly to let us know how Minnie was doing. Their dog, Parker, was very gentle around little 11lb Minnie too! I highly recommend Joan if you need boarding in the Little River/North Myrtle area!

Joan was absolutely amazing! She waited up for us late at night for drop off and was so welcoming and kind. Gunner had so much fun with her and she was the perfect care taker for him! He looked so happy in EVERY picture that she sent. If I ever need a place for Gunner in Myrtle Beach again, I will definitely be reaching out to her.

I think it’s best to set up a meet and greet before committing to a stay to make sure the pups are good and see if it feels like a good fit. Of course having a written schedule for feeding toileting habits and sleeping would be helpful. Any of course what they most like to do for fun 😋😒
