“My babies LOVED Nikki! She really kept their same schedule and lifestyle the same while we were away! They barely noticed we were gone! Home away from home for them for sure! I’d recommend her to EVERYONE!”
“My dogs adore Jennifet and run to greet her when they see her! She is not only caring and compassionate to my sweet dogs, but she is so friendly and kind to our family, as well. We are so thankful we found Jennifer to care for our dogs when we are away! She is wonderful!”
“This is our second time having Tuxedo stay with Megan., and our experience this time was just as good as the last! She is communicative and flexible and takes such good care of Tuxedo!”
“Luna had a great time and felt very comfortable and safe. Lanie was able to work around Luna’s reactive behavior to the best of her abilities and provide an environment that eased Luna’s anxiety.”
“Morgan and Matthew were so great with Joey!! They were very flexible with pickup/dropoff, sent regular updates, and gave me confidence in my dog’s well being. I will be boarding with them again.”
“Our pups had a great time with Kathy! She made us feel at ease leaving our 11 year old girls in her care. She provided great photo updates during our time away. Thank you for taking such good care of Piper and Ella!”
“We had a wonderful experience having our dogs stay with Tracie and Keith! They provided regular photo updates and we could tell our pups were having a great time! We would absolutely board our dogs with them again!”
“Jenna is the best! Our high energy beagle loves her and gets so excited to go to her house and play with her dogs. She sends pictures daily and is very quick to respond. She treats our pup like family and we really appreciate her!”
“Delia is the sweetest! She is very responsive from booking through the stay, she made me feel at ease with quick replies and pictures. I felt my dog was with someone who adored almost as much as I do. Delia is very responsible. Poor Delia was also incredible when my older pup lost a tooth, she alerted me immediately, brought her to my vet, followed up with them ensuring they triple checked to make sure she was alright, and then was there for my pet for everything she needed, all while communicating with me. She gave my dog the love and care that we all would hope for our pets when we are not there. After a tough travel morning, Delia was flexible when we got home earlier than expected and even brought our girl home. I appreciate the level of care and look forward to booking with her again soon!”
“I love, love, love Sharon! I was worried about leaving my babies because I have never left them alone with anyone. I appreciated her patience and she loved on them as if they were her own. I would definitely hire her again.”

About: I have owned dogs & a cat for all my life! I have experience with all sizes, breeds, and attitudes. I have personally owned a gray cat, Yorkie, Rottweiler, Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, and a chocolate Lab. I have experience with all ages as well from puppies/kittens to elderly animals. I am currently in graduate school for my Master’s and do it online so I am home almost all day. Your pet will definitely get the one-on-one time they want and need. I love having an animal to keep me company! I live in an apartment but my complex has plenty of space to do walks and a fenced in yard for any dogs who want to run around. Personally, I also don’t mind animals who like to lay on the couch or chairs or similar furniture.
About: I have experience caring for pets of all sizes and personalities, from energetic puppies to calm senior dogs and independent cats. I understand that every pet has their own routine, comfort level, and needs, and I always take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. I’m dependable, attentive, and treat every pet like they are my own. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or just providing companionship, I make sure each visit is filled with care and consistency. I’m also happy to follow detailed instructions and maintain your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is in responsible, loving hands and getting the attention they deserve. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate a variety of pet care needs throughout the week. I am available for morning, midday, and evening visits depending on the day, and I’m happy to work with pet owners to find times that best fit their pet’s routine. I am also available for weekend care and can provide drop-in visits, walks, and extended care when needed. I understand consistency is important for pets, so I do my best to stick closely to their normal schedule for feeding, walks, and playtime. If you have specific timing needs, feel free to reach out—I’m happy to discuss and do my best to accommodate. Please note for boarding in my home, I have a dog myself and would require a meet and greet between pets before booking. The safety, comfort, and well-being of every pet in my care is my top priority. I take the time to follow each owner’s instructions carefully and ensure pets are cared for in a calm, secure, and familiar environment. All care will be provided in the client’s home or during walks, which helps reduce stress for pets and keeps them in their normal routine. I am attentive to each pet’s behavior and needs, and I make it a priority to ensure doors, gates, and leashes are always handled responsibly during visits and walks. I also provide regular updates so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. My goal is to build trust through clear communication, reliability, and consistent care so both you and your pet feel comfortable and secure.
“Sydney and Q took such great care of Cooper! He loved playing with Forrest and they kept me updated on how he was doing! Looking forward to using them again in the future.”
“Rachel was wonderful!! She was super responsive and flexible with drop off and pick up. She sent pictures of Finley to me throughout her stay which helped ease my mind while we were apart. Such an easy and seamless process ☺️ Highly recommend her for dog boarding!”
About: I've been caring for dogs for over 20 years, and my own dogs have taught me that every pup has its own personality and needs. I'm comfortable with every life stage, from house training and teaching basic commands to puppies, to giving senior and special-needs dogs the patience, medication routines, and gentle care they deserve. Big, high-energy breeds are no problem either. I love long walks, active play, and keeping busy dogs happy and tired. Most importantly, I'll stick to your routine, send updates and photos, and make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and right at home while you're away! I work from home, so I'm around throughout the day to give your pet regular walks, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention. My weekends are open too, which makes me a great fit for weekend boarding, drop-ins, and longer stays. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and your pet will be part of my day rather than an afterthought. At my home, your dog will have a secure fenced yard to play in and my own friendly dog for company. I have a crate available if your pup is crate trained or you prefer it. When I care for pets in your home, I follow your routine closely: feeding, walks, medications, and house rules. I always start with a meet & greet so we can get to know each other and make sure it's a good fit, and I send photo and text updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

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 Simmonsville 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 Simmonsville.
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 Simmonsville 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.

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.
