“Our pup had the best time!!! Carla took incredible care of him, gave us daily updates and even gave a bath at the end of his stay. He didn’t want to come home at all haha. If you’re looking for responsive and attentive sitter, Carla is your lady!”
“Sheila and her family took amazing care of my dog this weekend. She was great about sending updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My pup came home happy and clearly well-loved. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. Will definitely book again!”
“I have had nothing but wonderful experiences boarding my dog Bradie with Richard! Communication is fantastic- very responsive and accommodating to my schedule. She is always well taken care of, happy and loved while i'm away. I highly recommend to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, pet caregiver. Truly a 5 star experience :)”
“I'm always very anxious about leaving our dog, but Winnie took to Sasha so quickly and got on so well with her dog too! I highly recommend Sasha, and we'll certainly work with her again if we're ever back in the area!”
“Leigh Ann and her family were great! They took superb care of my pup and keeped me updated with pictures and reports of all the fun they were having. Leigh Ann was very accommodating concerning my shifting drop off and pick up times. I will absolutely ask them to help out in the future! Fantastic folks who love dogs!”
“Alyssa was great! Very responsive and friendly, sent plenty of updates and pictures, and my dog looked very happy and at home while under her care. Highly recommend!”

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.
“As a first time Rover.com user, we were nervous about leaving our beloved Moose with just anyone. Natasha recommended a meet-and-greet, and meeting her in person and seeing Moose's interactions with her and her home put us at ease. From the daily pictures Natasha sent us, we knew Moose was happy and well cared for. We will definitely reach out to Natasha in the future.”
“Fran treated our pup like she was her own, we loved seeing happy pictures of Chloe while she was staying with Fran. We will definitely ask Fran to watch Chloe again!”
“Connie was great! She was very informative during our meet and greet about how she cares for dogs, so I felt very comfortable leaving Charlotte with her. Thanks, Connie!”
“Nick was great! He communicated in timely manner, very flexible, friendly, and took excellent care of Cooper. We will definitely be using him for all of our future boarding. Highly recommended!”
“Lea is so wonderful!!!! We had a last minute booking for the weekend and Lea took care of our Charlotte so well! Copper and Luna are wonderful friends, I feel so lucky to find Lea, Luna and Copper. Charlotte had such a wonderful time here, I would 100% recommend and would return for sure!!”
“This was the first time I used DogVacay and the whole experience was extremely positive. Carissa and Ryan were fabulous...very responsive and accommodating. They sent daily updates with pictures and it was obvious that my dog, Wayne, was not only well cared for but was also having a great time playing with Charley. I will not hesitate to ask them to watch Wayne again the next time I need a dog-sitter.”
“I can only really know how things went for my cat Teacup when she is boarded by how she behaves once she’s back home. After her 2 night stay with Natasha she seemed happy to be home, but otherwise very calm. Unlike other times when she meowed non-stop for 2 days as if she were trying to tell me all was not as it should have been. This time she hardly meowed at all. Natasha and her 2 daughters seem comfortable with both cats and dogs which of course reassures their guests that they are safe and loved. For Teacup that is everything. I think Teacup wouldn’t mind a return visit in the future. I can recommend Natasha for cat boarding.”
“Dominic was great! He was able to watch Penny at the last minute since my other sitter had to cancel. He sent updates and pictures every day. My pup loved Dominic and didn't want to leave! Will definitely come back when I'm away!”

Meaghan was so great with Scout while we were away on family vacation. Scout had some allergy issues during her stay with her and Meaghan was on top of it and so helpful with getting her relief! We recommend leaving your pup with her. They will be in the best hands!
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!
Katherine is amazing! We use her boarding/ pet sitting services every year on a family vacation and she is always communicative, kind, and trustworthy! We don’t leave our dog with any other sitters and we can tell he loves being with her every time we pick him up <3
Katherine was absolutely amazing with my dog, Cooper! She sent so many pictures while I was away, and in every single one Cooper looked so happy - literally smiling. You could tell he was having the best time, which gave me so much peace of mind. She also made sure to ask a lot of thoughtful questions beforehand, which really showed how much she cares and made me feel confident that Cooper was in great hands. On top of that, she was super accommodating and flexible, especially with my last-minute schedule, which I really appreciated. It made everything so easy and stress-free. I truly feel like I just found my new go-to Rover sitter. I would 100% recommend Katherine to anyone, she’s the best! 🐾
Kamryn was incredibly diligent in learning my pup’s routine & responded right away to messages as we finalized pickup/drop off details. She clearly loves dogs & mine took to her instantly. I never doubted that my pup was in good hands during the stay with Kamryn. She’s a gem!

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
93% of Sullivans Island sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Sullivans Island landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
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.
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 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.
