“Ashley was just wonderful! My pup seemed to have a blast at her house. She gave frequent updates and pics and also sent him home with the cutest present. I would definitely recommend Ashley if you ever need someone to watch your pup!”
“I left my 2 year old lab Belle with Julie and Chris so we could go on our family vacation for one week. At the meet and greet Julie asked all the necessary questions on how to take care of Belle. Belle and Parma were instant friends at the meet and greet! I feel lucky to have found such nice people to take care of Belle in our neighborhood. I received daily updates on Belle pictures and videos. I highly recommend Julie and Chris they are true dog people!!!”
“Fernanda took wonderful care of both of our dogs in her home. They were happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for when I picked them up. She communicated consistently throughout their stay, which gave me great peace of mind, and she was extremely dependable from start to finish. I would absolutely trust her with our dogs again and highly recommend her to others.”
“Hannah took great care of our Maizie May during our weekend getaway - she sent pictures throughout her stay, was quick to answer questions about how Maizie was doing, and we would absolutely use her again!”
“We are Rover hosts and have never left our dogs with anyone except family. Autumn and her family were our dogs surrogate family while we were away. She sent tons of sweet photos that looked as if we would have taken them at our own home. Her family has tons of love to give and we would recommend her to anyone. We will definitely call on her next time we go away!”
About: I grew up with family dogs and I have a spoiled little doodle mutt of my own. Your baby will be spoiled rotten in my care ❤️❤️ I often dog sit for family and friends for free since I love having a playmate for my Sushi (my dog) and now they’ve suggested I make it a side hustle. Also, I’m a nurse so I can take good care of both people and doggies. I work 3 12-hour shifts in a week so I’m basically free for 4 days. I also have my husband who will help in taking good care of your pets. Believe it or not he is an even more softie for doggies than me. We’ve been wanting to get a second dog so I’m hoping to keep him busy with foster babies and forget about it for now until we can afford to have another furbaby 😊 I have a fenced yard and 1 very cute doodle to keep your pets company. I also make it a point to walk my dog twice a day and bring her to the dog park nearby. I also often do a pup cup run with my baby so I can definitely bring your baby along and free pup cup on me 😊
“Marston took great care of my dog, Pepper. She didn't want to leave when I picked her up! Marston sent pictures of her having fun with other dogs he was caring for. I could tell when we went for a meet-and-greet that he is a real dog-lover. I would definitely ask him to dogsit again.”
“Ash had a wonderful time staying with Ysidra! She sent great photo updates throughout eachday, and he came home happy, tired and with a new toy. We would definitely book with her again."”
“I appreciate you taking such good care of Luna while I traveled over the Thanksgiving holiday. She looked to have so much fun!! Thanks again and I will definitely book you for future visits. Highly recommend.”
“Breyer had a great time staying with Olivia and playing with Zeus. He was one happy and tired pup when we got him back. She sent us pics and videos during his stay with her. We have already booked another stay for him with her. Definitely recommend Olivia.”
“Edra was such a blessing of a find. I was very nervous to have to leave my dog with a stranger while vacationing in Hilton Head. I chose Edra because of her reviews and the calm environment and attention she is able to provide. She showed so much genuine care to my dog, and also to me as I was very nervous. She sent so many photo updates throughout the stay, and was always quick to reply. She stuck to my dog’s schedule and was more than accommodating with her. I could tell from the drop off as well as the photo updates that she was comfortable and well taken care of. I wish Edra lived closer to me so I could use her any time I go out of town and need a dog sitter, but I will definitely reach back out any time I am going back to Hilton Head. 10/10 she is so great! I highly recommend Edra to care for your pet.”
“Jennifer is awesome! She is very responsive and gave constant updates and pictures of my dog which I loved. my dog had a great time and got along really well with her dogs as well.”
“Beth accommodations for a last minute reservation. We were very grateful! Beautiful home and big yard so I know he was very well taken care of. Will definitely book again! Thank you, Shannon!”
“Madison and her husband were so amazing! They gave us updates and pictures every day of how our sweet puppy was doing, and you could tell they really are intentional and love dogs so well. Gia definitely found a second home in hilton head and we will be using them every time when we come back :)”
“Left my giant Bernese mountain dog with Kyle for 17 days. Being in the military can be tough with a dog, but I couldn’t be happier with how it went. I could tell Chewie had a great time and the pictures and updates were just the right amount. Highly highly recommend Kyle, I’ll definitely use him again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Ridgeland is $60 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $86 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 324 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Ridgeland. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
96% of sitters in Ridgeland can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Ridgeland 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 Ridgeland.
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 Ridgeland 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.
