“Andie and her husband Mike took SUCH loving care of my GSD puppy. Andie is a great communicator, responding quickly to questions and sending updates and pictures. I trust her wholeheartedly and am so glad to have found her.”

“Henry had such a great stay. He loved hanging out with Granger! The yard was super!! And all the videos Maddie sent were fantastic 😊 She assured us Henry was having his own vacation just like us humans!”

“My dogs seemed to be on their own vacation with Oceana- she took them for walks on the beach & to the marsh. I got daily photo updates & texts about their daily activities. I will be using her services when I go out of town in the future!”

“We were nervous about leaving our 2 babies with someone new. However, all nervousness quickly evaporated when we met Nicky and her husband. She made us feel so relaxed. She and her husband both were naturals with dogs. We were thrilled that she let them on her sofa and bed as that is what they are used to. Do not hesitate to book with Nicky --- we have already booked in again!”

“Tinkerbelle is a senior cat and very much spoiled. Mary took excellent care of her and sent us frequent pictures. When we picked her up I do not think she wanted to leave. That is a great compliment. Recomed highly”

“Craig was great!!! Quick responses, easy drop off and pick up, and sent us regular pupdates while we were on vacation 😊 Thank you so much again, and we'll be in touch next time we're going out of town!!”


“The absolute best! From the moment we met her, I felt completely comfortable leaving Billie in her care. She is incredibly personable, caring, and attentive. Billie came home happy, exhausted from all the fun, and clearly showered with love and attention. She also had a great time playing with her adorable pup! We couldn’t be happier with the experience and can’t wait to book again. Highly recommend!”

“Somehow our first and previous review had a major typo, so we hope this one helps finish/clarify! This is the second time we’ve booked Jenn and Katrina and we were again so happy with how well they took care of our dogs. Again they followed any directions we gave them and the dogs were super happy to go back after their first stay! Thank you so much Jenn and Katrina!”
“Mari was wonderful with our pup. She sent great messages letting us know how our dog ate and what they did during the day. Our pup seemed really happy to be there and we are grateful for Mari.”

“Sandi and her family were amazing… We came to Myrtle beach with our small dog and unfortunately she was unable to stay in the condo we were staying at so I started looking for someone who could help. Sandi came up on Rover and after speaking with me she decided to take our girl Skye in for the weekend. It was on such short notice but she happily welcomed Skye into her home with open arms. She was amazing during Skye’s stay with her and even gave us her pups food recipe as it’s been hard to find things Skye really enjoys to eat. During her stay we received daily updates on Skye and how she was doing. While we missed Skye being with us we knew and felt she was safe with Sandi and her family!! I highly recommend Sandi for those looking for an amazing sitter who will love your pup like their own. I really can’t thank her enough for all she did for my family this past weekend especially Skye.”

“This is our 3rd time using Karla - the first time was just for daycare, the 2nd and 3rd time were for 4 overnight stays. Karla is very caring and communicative — she sends videos through the day to keep us informed and reassured that our dog is doing well. We will certainly use Karla again as the need arises.”

“Jacklyn did an amazing job with Harry. Harry went for long walks and played outside a ton. She sent photos everyday of our boy having fun. She was super quick and friendly when communicating, and she even accommodated an extra night. We used Jacklyn for our pup during a visit to Myrtle Beach. It worked out wonderfully! We’d definitely book with Jacklyn again. Highly recommend!”

“Laura and her family did a great job caring for Molly. It was our first time using Rover or leaving her with someone we did not know prior. She communicated well and sent pictures to help alleviate our nerves and they all took turns giving Molly lots of cuddles which we really appreciated!!”

“Amy was a wonderful dog sitter! I was so sad dropping the dogs off because we don’t normally leave them, but she kept us regularly updated and they seemed to have had a great time!”

“Debby, or “Aunt Debby” as Knox calls her 😊 provided the best care that I could ask for. I was able to relax on my vacation with peace of mind that my best friend was at home with her. Debby sent informative updates and photos so being away from him was easier. I think he’ll sleep like a baby for a week since she exercised him routinely. He’s a black Lab and it’s hot here in Myrtle Beach, but I didn’t worry since Debby’s level of emergency medical knowledge is far beyond that of any kennel. I will definitely book Camp Debby next time I need to travel without him. Thank you!!!!”

“Rover wants me to give a review. To be fair I must ask my dogs to do the review since they are the ones that were being cared for. My experiences are/were extremely positive. Of course both Zoey and Bandit have not stopped talking about their Caitlin and all the lovings they got. They asked to go back and I will be using their sitter again.”

“Jeff is awesome! Book with Jeff. We felt 100% confident with him and his family keeping our Australian Shepherd for a week while we were away. We did a meet and greet with him and they got along right away. He took her on multiple walks, played a lot, and let her be comfortable around his home. Jeff sent us updates and numerous photos every night, we weren’t worried about her at all as she was definitely having a good time. Having the peace of mind of our baby being well taken care of is worth every penny and more. Thank you, Jeff!”

The best! Our baby was safe, happy and loved just like at home. Will 100% book with Andie again when we have to go out of town. Highly recommend her to care for your fur baby while away or even as a play date. Our baby Zoey had the best time! Thank you Andie for being so wonderful!

It's been said that, "you'll know if you have the right candidate for the job within the first 30 seconds of meeting them." Well that's how it was for us during the meet and greet. We immediately connected with David and his wife and our dog Kai immediately connected with their dog Navy. (During the entire time we spent together Navy and Kai had a great time playing with each other.) We were a little concerned about Kai having some digestive issues and at drop off we went over Kai's issues and kibble changeover. David kept in touch with us to let us know how Kai was progressing and the results were very pleasing. Our communication process reaffirmed what we knew with the first 30 seconds of meeting them.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Pawleys Island
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Pawleys Island on Rover is $33.3 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 195 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Pawleys Island. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
96% of Pawleys 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 Pawleys 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 Pawleys 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 Pawleys 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 Pawleys 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.
