“We were so happy with the care that was given to our pup by Lila. He is an elderly dog and she was so kind and thoughtful to his needs. Added bonus…our guy made a new friend with her pup. We would highly recommend Lila and hope to use her services in the future!”
“Truly a home away from home for our dog. Kathy, Gabe, and their dog Jasper made every aspect of our boarding experience fantastic. Knowledgeable and clear communication and the priceless peace of mind that our dog was being cared for as if she was their own. Book with confidence!”
“Sasha is the best of the best! She took such great care of my pup while I was on a trip. She sent me photos and updates, and was so attentive to him even though he was anxious. I highly recommend her and will definitely be asking her to watch Puck again!”
“Fran took good care of my cat and provided timely status updates to me. I was initially nervous when she mentioned a dog in the house at the same time which was not communicated previously, but it all worked out. In the future I recommend letting the pet owner know if there will be additional pets especially since this can be a safety issue. Overall, I was very satisfied with the service.”
“Josie had a wonderful stay with Kyler. Josie is a very social dog and really enjoys being around other dogs. Henry was a great companion. Kyler sent us daily pictures. And we will def use Kyler again when we need to leave Jo at home.”
“Alyssa could not have been more wonderful. She was great with Shay, came through in an emergency like a champ. We are so grateful for her, and will request her if we return to Charleston.”
“Wow, what a great experience for my Rosie. I don’t think she even missed me. You can’t go wrong with Leigh Ann, she is super sweet, very accommodating and such a loving family. Rosie was spoiled rotten!”
“Thank you Diane for taking such great care of my dog. Charlie is a skittish miniature poodle mix that does not connect with everyone. Diane made her feel at home and sent pictures. I would definitely recommend Diane and we will be using her again.”
“Kimmy and Dylan were fantastic! They sent photos and updates daily which I really appreciated especially since Bae takes a little while to warm up to someone new. Their kindness, consideration and care of Bae greatly impacted her feeling at home which I could see in the photos so I was able to have no worries whatsoever, I knew she was in a warm loving place. Thanks so much again!!”
About: I’m a registered nurse with a lifelong love for dogs, which means safety, reliability, and attention to detail are always my top priorities. I had my own dog for 14 years, so I have extensive experience caring for senior dogs, including administering medications, recognizing changes in behavior or health, and providing extra patience and comfort. Having moved here from Philly, I truly miss having a dog of my own, so I treat every pet I care for like family. I’m calm, observant, and dependable, and I’m especially comfortable with routines, special instructions, and pets who need a little extra care or reassurance. Whether it’s walks, overnight stays, or drop-ins, your dog will be safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine. As a nurse, I work three 12-hour shifts per week, which gives me several full days off where I’m completely available for walks, drop-ins, and overnight care.I plan my schedule carefully and only accept bookings I can fully commit to, so your pet will always get consistent attention, exercise, and care. I’m happy to work around your dog’s routine and communicate clearly so you always know your pet is in good hands. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or yours. As a nurse, I’m highly attentive, detail-oriented, and trained to notice subtle changes in behavior, appetite, or energy levels. I carefully follow all routines and instructions provided, including feeding schedules, medications, leash preferences, and house rules. In a client’s home, I respect your space and keep your pet’s environment clean, calm, and familiar. In my home, pets are supervised, never left unattended for long periods, and kept in a secure, comfortable setting. I use leashes at all times outdoors unless otherwise instructed and avoid dog parks unless explicitly approved. I prioritize clear communication and will provide regular updates, photos, and messages so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness always come first.
“Chewy was well cared for with Natasha. We got daily pictures and updates that gave us peace of mind. He tends to get anxious when we leave him but he did very well with Natasha.”
“Rachel was wonderful! Took great care of Trooper, he seemed to love her and her dog Sadie who is an absolute angel. She sent picture updates every day and made me feel very comfortable. Will definitely be booking again!”
“Jennifer is an amazing sitter. Our pup adores her and she is our first choice when we need to leave our little guy. We highly recommend your pet to her loving and efficient care. 🐶❤️”
“Natalie was very responsive and easy to work with. She and Diesel kept Zeus entertained and he came home ready to pass out from all the fun. Zeus can be needy and Natalie did a great job helping him adjust to his new environment. I'll definitely be using her again in the future.”
“Paul was a terrific sitter. Paddington was very comfortable and had a great time. Paul took him on long walks and sent really nice photos at the end of the day, he also had a dog cam and you can see your dog. Lastly Paul helped us out of a bind agreeing to watch Paddington on short notice as we had an unexpected trip. Highly recommend!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sullivans Island
Parish and his wife were awesome. Very kind and caring people who communicated regularly and took exceptional care of our senior dog Mollie, including her meds. Parish works remotely so Mollie was able to hang out with him every day and snuggle, which is an absolute must for a spoiled, only dog Shih-Tzu. Parish and his wife have a beautiful, spotless home and they sent pictures of Mollie parked in front of their huge glass window, watching the squirrels outdoors, which is the thing she loves to do the most. I can always tell when I pick Molly up if she was well cared for by how she reacts to me. When I picked her up from Parish and his wife, Mollie could have cared less if I was there or not. That only happens when she has had such a good time and was so well cared for by the sitter. I plan to ask Parish to care for Mollie every time we leave town without her from now on and I can recommend him without any reservations. I feel very fortunate to have discovered Parish on Rover.
Mary is absolutely amazing! She takes such great care of Winston every time he stays with her. We always know he’s in the best hands, and it’s clear how much she genuinely cares about him. Winston absolutely loves his time with Mary, and we love the peace of mind that comes with knowing he’s happy, safe, and spoiled with attention. He also loves his girlfriend Stella too.We couldn’t recommend her more highly!
Gabrielle is the best dog sitter we’ve ever had! If I could give 10 stars I would! She took Smoke on so many fun outings and sent regular pictures and updates. She is super flexible, and she’s an animal lover. Smoke didn’t want to leave her when I picked him up. We will definitely book again!
Tamara and Steven were wonderful dog sitters! They were incredibly flexible and accommodating, which made everything so easy. They kept us updated with regular messages and lots of great photos, so we always knew our pup was happy and well cared for. It gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring, reliable sitters!

93% of sitters in Sullivans Island 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.

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 Sullivans Island 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 Sullivans Island.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Sullivans Island 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.
