“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 pups came home very happy after their very own vacation with Mari. They also got to spend some time with other dogs. Updated with pictures/videos whenever I requested, easy and communicative, will most definitely use again!”
“Madison is very kind and trustworthy. She sends pictures and gives updates often. I immediately booked another stay with her and I'm certain my pup will be beyond excited to get more time with her and Zoey.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for years! I have basic training skills and love being able to take care of and help other dogs and pet parents! I am a stay at home dad and would love to have some new dog friends around to hang out with and get myself and my kids outside a bit during the day! I have a fenced backyard and my neighborhood is nestled far back from any main streets. We have a nice quiet street across for a small pond.
“Nicole was so kind and attentive to our Sophie. She kept us in the loop on how Sophie was doing, with pictures and messages. This was the first time we have tried an online kennel scheduling, and Nicole gave us stellar service.We will be using her again soon! Thank you Nicole for taking care of our girl.”
“Debbie and her family are awesome!! I had a sitter to cancel on me in the last min before labor day wknd. Debbie agreed to keep Rocxi for me for 4 days in last min. They are wonderful people. They are super friendly, warm and down to earth. She really put me at ease. I didnt worry about a thing while we were out of town!! She is our new go-to sitter!!!!”
“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!”
“Absolutely amazing experience for our first time using Rover! Alivia was a blessing and absolutely the easiest to work with. So happy we chose her. Our fur baby came home happy, healthy and ready to get back to his life. Thank you Alivia for making this such a positive experience.”
“We cannot say enough wonderful things about Christa! She recently cared for our dog, Dallas, while we were traveling, and the experience was truly exceptional. Christa treats every pup as if they are her own. She has a dedicated room in her home just for the dogs she’s sitting, complete with their own bed, TV, and all the comforts of home. Her fenced-in yard provides a safe space to play, and her entire family is incredibly loving and attentive. She also kept us constantly updated with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Her two dogs, Leo and Oliver, are just as amazing—friendly, gentle, and so welcoming to their furry guests. It truly felt like Dallas was on his own little vacation! If you’re looking for someone who will treat your fur baby like family, we highly recommend Christa! 🐶🐾🦴”

“Britney was absolutely fantastic! I’m pretty sure my dog had a better vacation with her than I did😂 great communication and so accommodating. 10 out of 10 would recommend and will definitely be using her in the future (and telling family and friends)!”
“Liz is a wonderful dog sitter, she was so warm and welcoming to Maizy. This was Maizys first time away from home and I was worried but Liz took all my worries away with her warmth and caring. Maizy felt right at home and it is such a beautiful home that I think she wanted to stay longer. Highly recommend Liz for all your dog sitting needs!”
“Gil was absolutely amazing at taking care of my fur baby! He was very responsive and sent lots of photos of my dog having so much fun! His own dog Milo ended up being such a great doggie friend to my Tucker and they played together for the entirety of Tuckers stay. Gil definitely has the perfect demeanor, patience, & experience to watch any dog!”
“After Hurricane Helene, we escaped to Myrtle Beach until our home was livable, but our hotel didn’t allow dogs. Anthony came to the rescue for the entire week with one hour notice and our 2 dogs were so happy with him! We visited through the week and they were happy to go back inside with Anthony. That speaks volumes as to how happy and content they were with Anthony. I would 100% recommend him to other dogs owners. Thank you again, Anthony!”
“Ilana took care of our dog for over a week. She was very professional, prompt with replies, and clearly loves dogs. We loved getting updates and photos of our pup on his “vacation.” We even got a photo of him sleeping back-to-back with Ilana’s dog Tony! Our pup has never been that comfortable with another dog before, so that goes to show how relaxed he was in her care. Next time we need to travel we will definitely consider boarding our dog at Ilana’s again!”
“Asher can be apprehensive when it comes to meeting new people and fur friends, but he was instantly comfortable with Cyrus. You can easily tell how knowledgeable about animals Cyrus is and how much he loves being around them by the way he talks. We especially felt comfortable knowing that his house is animal friendly, safe and spacious for our fur babies to roam. 10/10 would recommend.”
About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for the past 10 years, and caring for them has always been more than just a hobby — it’s my passion! I have extensive hands-on experience with a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, snakes, reptiles, and even insects and other exotic pets. In addition to caring for my own animals, I’ve spent several years volunteering with various animal shelters, giving me valuable experience working with animals of all personalities, temperaments, ages, and needs. My goal is to turn my passion for animal care into a full-time career, and I’m incredibly lucky to have a husband who supports me every step of the way! A little about my home life: I currently have a sweet, friendly black Labrador named Mable who is about 8 months old. She’s full of personality, loves to play, and is always excited to make new friends! Whether your pet needs a safe and loving place to stay, a fun walk, or simply some extra attention while you’re away, I’d love the opportunity to help. I understand that pets are family, and I promise to treat yours with the same love, patience, and care I give my own.💙 Now accepting last-minute holiday bookings!

“This was my first time ever having to leave a baby behind on vacation and I’m too happy Darlene accepted my request. My baby whom was never away from home or us, adjusted well slowly but they gained his trust. She continued to update me about him throughout the day with pictures included! Thank you again!”
“This is the second time that she has been able to accommodate us when we stay at the Marriott in North Myrtle Beach. Jennie is awesome, she sends us updates and lets us know how things are going. She’s also very accommodating if we want to stop by and pick Ramsey up to take him for a hike or to the beach. We will definitely see her again when we come down next year.”

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!
Fantastic experience with Stefanie! She took excellent care of my little dog and kept me informed of how she was doing with photos and videos every day. Lilibet enjoyed her time with Stefanie and got to play with her little dog too, which was very nice to see. Highly recommend Stefanie and would definitely book with her again! :)

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.
95% of sitters in Socastee 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 Socastee 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 Socastee.
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 Socastee. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 Socastee 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.
