“Michelle was very pleasant and patient with my dog, who is not accustomed to people outside of our family. When we arrived, she made sure she understood all of our preferences regarding eating, sleeping, and socializing. Throughout our time away, she sent pictures and text updates on how my dog was adjusting. When we picked Max up, he was clean, calm, and doing great overall. A great experience!”

“Ashley did such an incredible job watching my dog, I wish I could give her more than five stars. She was so attentive to his needs and was sure to send me so many pictures of my little guy while I was gone. I already told her we’d be using her again, because I’ve been so whole-heartedly impressed with her. She woke up early and stayed up late to adjust to my crazy schedule while traveling. Thank you so much, Ashley.”

“Emily was absolutely wonderful with our dog Hazel. Hazel has epilepsy requiring several medications twice a day to keep it under control. Finding a sitter that we feel comfortable and confident with is not always easy. Emily took her for several walks and followed all our instructions. She sent me pictures through the stay showing how happy and comfortable Hazel was with being there. I would highly recommend Emily and will definitely use her again in the future.”

About: I am very experienced in taking care of and managing many different types of animals. I’ve personally owned a Chow, a Cocker Spaniel, and have owned 4 Yorkies. I now own 2 pit bulls my girl Destiny and my boy Bentley. Destiny is very kind, trained, and has never been aggressive towards any other animal or person and same with Bentley as well. We love being outside and taking a lap around the neighborhood or taking a hike through the woods. I love animals and look forward to working with you and your pets! My animals eat once in the morning and once in the afternoon, I typically feed them 12 hours apart, so whatever time I feed them in the morning goes around the same time I feed them in the afternoon I typically let them out in the morning after they eat, and depending on the weather, I’ll let them stay out in the back for a while I have a fenced in backyard so they all can play together and when I leave, I typically will either crate whoever is visiting and put my animals in my room or leave them outside there’s never any unsupervised contact

“LITERALLY. THE. BEST! This was our first time using Rover after a horrible experience boarding with a kennel and it was a game changer. Our pups stayed with Brittany for over a week and the only problem we had was that they were having so much fun, they didn't want to come home! We have two giant mastiffs, one with terrible anxiety and the other that acts like a toddler hyped up on sugar most of the time. She handled them both like a champ. We received loads of pictures everyday, so we had no reason to worry. I can't say enough great things about our experience! Thanks again girl!!!”

“Lyndsay and Charlyn took such wonderful care of my puppy. They took him out every 2 hours and made sure he was happy during his day! I also loved how they kept me informed about Lulu and sent me the most adorable pictures of him! Next time I go to Columbia I will definitely have him stay with them again!! Thanks again for everything”

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Slighs

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 347 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Slighs. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.

96% of sitters in Slighs 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 Slighs 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 Slighs.

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 Slighs. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 Slighs 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.
