“Shannon was great with our pet Zeke in booking a last minute reservation. She was great with communication and photos while we were away which helped with ease of mind. She seemed experienced in pet care and that was also a plus. We would definitely bring Zeke back for a future visit.”
“Kirsten provided exceptional services. Before booking, she offered a meet and greet to make sure Penny would be a great fit. We arrived to the home and she welcomed Penny and myself with a warm welcome. Let’s just say it was a great fit! Kirsten was gentle and warm with Penny. She updated me with pictures and informed me on how Penny was adjusting. I definitely would recommend Kirsten to take care of your fur baby. I will be definitely using Kirsten in the future. Thank you, Kirsten!”
“Evelyn was great with our girls! She gave them a cozy, comforting home while we were away, and they loved having a big fenced yard to play in. We could tell they were super happy and well taken care of. Definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone who truly loves dogs!”
“Audrey was honestly the best. Our cat Nova had a great time and was obviously very cared for. Audrey had great and fast communication, kept us in the loop constantly. She also gave us lots of pictures. 10/10 would recommend.”
“Paola was amazing! She treated both my girls like furry princesses. She made me feel welcomed and relaxed the moment we met! During the puppy vacation Paola sent me daily pictures and videos. My pups had a great time! 10/10 would recommend”

“Highly recommend! My girl Cinnamon had a great time! The meet and greet went well and I felt very comfortable with leaving my girl with her. Leigh did a great job with sharing pictures of my baby and sending daily updates. Leigh responded quickly whenever I reached out to her. I will be using her again!!”
“Lauren was excellent and helped us out with boarding for our dog at the last minute when our other arrangements fell through. She sent photos to reassure us all was going well. It was so nice to find someone nearby we could rely on on such short notice.”
“Monica is simply the BEST! She was able to accommodate my dates at the last minute and my fur baby immediately fell in love with her! She asked lots of questions about Bailey's likes and dislikes because she wanted to make sure her experience felt just like home. Monica kept me updated through messages and pictures, which were appreciated. We love Monica and will definitely call on her again!”
“Super convenient. We came down to Fort Jackson for graduation. There are hotels 4 minutes away and Fort Jackson was 15 minutes and a very easy drive. Isabela was great, Sent multiple pictures of our pup enjoying his stay with her. If you are coming down with your fur baby for graduation, this is your sitter.”
“Was in a bind trying to find a place for my dogs since where they usually go, the vet was booked. I searched and came across Faylnn after reading her reviews I decided to contact her, she responded fast and gladly accepted watching my 2 dogs. I also have chickens and she was more than happy to feed them and give them water while I was out of town. My dogs loved her, she allowed my Chinese crested to be her moody self and catered to my rambunctious Frenchie with no complaints. She provided me with daily updates,pictures and summary of their day. I highly recommend Falynn if your pets are like your children and you want the best possible care, and the peace of mind they are being well taken care of then you need to send them to Falynn!!!”
“Tamera is fantastic. Marley (sheepadoodle) and Stormy (labradoodle puppy) came home happy and tired. Each day I received videos, pictures and updates. Tamera was understanding about puppy mistakes and her dog, Skrewball, was very patient and good with my dogs. I will use her again should the need arise! Can’t say enough good things about this experience!”
“Yua is a fantastic sitter and my dog loves coming here so much that he pulls to go back during my walks with him around the neighborhood! The consistent daily updates, good communication, and photos are very appreciated.”
“Yentl is an absolutely great choice if you're looking for someone caring and compassionate to entrust your fur baby too! Sage is in love with Yentl and her family! I received daily updates, pictures, and videos, so I knew she was in great hands! Sage was excited to see Yentl when she was dropped off! That let's me know she is loved when she is there ♥️.”

“Amanda was great, just like family. Her 3 little kids kept my old pup Sophie busy playing and getting smothered with attention. She has a big yard and a big house so Sophie could have her own space if she wanted. She was also available for a last minute booking which was really good for us.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Shaw Air Force Base
As always, Kobee loved staying there! He was ready to jump out as soon as we pulled up. A family emergency came up and Joseph did not hesitate to allow Kobee to stay longer if I needed it. I truly appreciate how well they take care of Kobee when I'm away, they are amazing people!
Maria was good and communicative. She was able to accept my lucky and a very short notice. My lucky made good friends with her boy. She fed him well. Only talking out 1 star as the place looked very dirty and I was not comfortable because my dog is prone to eating any garbage around. Thankfully, when I mentioned it, she cleaned the inside well and my dog had a comfortable stay and loved their company. Will leave him again when needed…
Maria was so kind and patient with my spoiled rotten doodle! I know my pup can be a handful, and I know she had a hard time being away from me for the first time overnight, but Maria did everything possible to keep her happy. She also was wonderful about working with me on pickup and drop off! Traffic was terrible, and she was very accommodating. Thank you, Maria!

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
97% of sitters in Shaw Air Force Base 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 Shaw Air Force Base 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 Shaw Air Force Base.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Shaw Air Force Base. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Shaw Air Force Base 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
