“Genny couldn’t have taken better care of our baby! She kept us very updated with how he was doing and our anxious dog was happily getting lots of kisses from Grandma Genny when he left. We feel such a relief knowing we can go out of town and leave him where he’ll be safe and spoiled!”
“Jeanne was great with my pup. She sent regular pictures and made me feel comfortable knowing he was well cared for. Not only was she always responsive, she showed a depth of knowledge regarding canine body language that made me know Kilo would be safe and cared for in my absence!”
“Stephanie to reared my Kingsley like a King! He clearly had a great time since I couldn’t get him to leave. Stephanie definitely has a passion for caring dogs and I am so happy I chose her to watch my pup!”
“I was nervous boarding my puppy for the first time. Saffron was amazing! She sent me pics and videos throughout the stay so I knew my sweet girl was in good hands!!!”
“Lucy had an absolute blast staying with Amanda! She was able to play with other dogs and get socialization all while being safe and cared for. Amanda put me at ease with frequent updates and photos of my pup!”
“Kristi was great! Casper did a trial sleepover and had a wonderful time. She made comfy places on the couch with blankets and took Casper on a couple walks. Nice grassy backyard and the dogs got along great. I have already booked again with Kristi! Oh and Casper liked snoozing under Will’s desk while he worked 😊 So glad we found you!!!”
“I could not be any happier with the care and love Levon got while staying with Benjamin and his wife! It gave me peace of mind and the ability to enjoy my trip knowing how much fun he was having with their dogs. I’ll definitely use their services again!”
“Laetitia is AMAZING! Very warm and friendly and took great care of my baby while I was away. My girl Gemma felt right at home and she came home very happy. Definitely recommend her for your dogs care!!”
“My boy is almost 12 and I have never left him with a stranger. I was new to the process and didn't have any idea of what was going on and I wasn't very keen on the idea of having to leave him with a stranger. Fortunately, Kristin was very responsive and kind about the whole thing, which was very reassuring. I got picture updates daily and even videos. The neighborhood was very nice, her home was clean and organized, she had a fenced in yard, twin boys which I am sure my dog loved to be around, and the a sweet weiner dog. My dog has specific feeding and meds, which she accommodated. I didn't want him to be alone when I was gone and picking Kristin was perfect.”
“I absolutely loved Jabrae! She took wonderful care of our dog, Kash! She sent updates and pictures. She handled all of his clingy-ness and nervousness very well. She even pampered him with a little grooming. Would definitely use her services again and recommend her. Thank you!!!”
“J&J were a very good find for me, and wonderful to Eillow. They communicated almost immediately, and were able to help me out when I had just moved to Charleston, and needed to go for a family emergency. They were so gracious to me, particularly with communication and an unexpected flight delay, completely reducing the stress you feel when needing to leave your 'loved one' with someone new. Not know my circumstances, they did this simply because they are kind and thoughtful. I completely trust them, and believe you will be very happy with the care they give!! Thank you so much, Joshua and Jade. Julie&Willow”
“Megan watched my two dogs. One of them was anxious and reactive and didn’t settle, but the other was relaxed and happy. I appreciated the patience, care, and communication throughout the stay.”
“Jennifer and Michael were absolutely wonderful! We got the most adorable photos of our pups everyday, including themed ones for Thanksgiving! It was obvious in the photos how happy and relaxed our furbabies were. They were very communicative and accommodating.”
“She is really nice and sweet, and update my dog’s stay every day. She did accept my last minute request for boarding but she was so friendly and easy to communicate. My dog really enjoyed playing with her dog together! Our dog just came back from boarding and training but she also kept my dog train during the stay. I really appreciate. I will definitely ask her again! She is really a great dog sitter!”
“Sarah was wonderful! Our dog is 10 years old and has been sick so he’s on several medications twice a day and Sarah took wonderful care of him. I was incredibly anxious about leaving him and she provided daily updates and pictures that showed he was in great hands. We picked him up and he was perfectly happy and seemed to have had a great time with Sarah and her family! Would absolutely recommend and would love for Sarah to watch any of our pets in the future!”
“Jennifer took very good care of my Sheba I was out of the country and was anxious about being so far away from my pet baby. Jennifer sent me pictures every day and kept me posted on how well she was being taken care of.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Summerville
We really enjoyed our boarding experience. Communication was quick and thorough, and I really felt comfortable leaving my fur baby. We especially appreciated the daily videos and updates. Picking Libra up was seamless. Even though she was happy to see us, I could tell she enjoyed her new found friends. Thank you!
Lizzy did a fantastic job watching Beau! She truly cares for pets and took such good care of him. He got plenty of exercise and she sent us the cutest photo updates every day. It was such a relief to travel knowing our dog was in great hands. We will absolutely book with Lizzy again! ❤️❤️❤️
Bridgette was amazing!! 10+stars if I could rate higher and she had great quick communication .This experience was our best, I could immediately tell Blu was happy and enjoyed his stay she gave him the love and attention he needed and he wasn’t confined to a kennel all day . Bridgette was excellent and we would definitely book with her again!
This was our second time using Rover and I think I have found a permanent sitter with Victoria. The flexibility and understanding is amazing. The constant communication and updates keeps your mind at ease while your away from your fur child. My Titan came back home so happy. 100% will be using again.
David was an amazing sitter for my dogs. Communication was excellent throughout the stay, and they sent plenty of pictures and videos that gave me peace of mind. It was clear they genuinely cared for my dogs and treated them very well while they were with them. I would highly recommend David to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter.
This is probably Henleys 8th time staying with Alice, and she is absolutely wonderful! Henley was sick a couple of days after dropping her off and Alice was so sweet and patient with me (being out of town) and Henley! Alice keeps you updated every day, it makes it hard to want to chose anyone else!
Tonia, is the best dog sitter!!! She sent texts, videos and pictures during my dogs stay. She loved my pet the way I love him. She is very thorough and has a vast knowledge and experience of animals. It allowed me to have a great family visit knowing my sweet dog was being taken care of! I will definitely be using her again!!! ❤️
Kirill was absolutely wonderful with our cat and dog. We were out of town for two weeks and Kirill watched them both, providing love, care, as well as consistent communication back to us. We got daily updates from him every day on how they were doing along with pictures.
Veronica was absolutely amazing with Zena! From the start, she treated my dog like her own and made sure she felt safe, loved, and comfortable. Zena can be a little skittish at first, but Veronica was patient, gentle, and incredibly understanding. She gave me consistent updates, photos, and reassurance the whole time, which meant so much. I could truly tell Zena was in great hands. Veronica went above and beyond in every way, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. All in all, a great experience — I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will care for their pet like family!
Samantha and her family were amazing with Waverly! I received daily updates and was ensured that she was safe and treated amazingly! Also Samantha made accommodations for Waverly last minute as my original plans had fell through! Thank you so so much, Samantha & family! :)

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Summerville on Rover is $40.7 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
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 .
As of July 2026, there are 1,120 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Summerville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Summerville 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 Summerville 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 Summerville 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 Summerville.
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 Summerville 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.
