“Ann is a very, friendly, warm and accommodating person. A perfect dog sitter. My lab Marcy had a wonderful stay at her lovely home. We received numerous updates, photos and videos of Marcy during her stay. I highly recommend her!”
“Christina was amazing and sent pictures daily of my pup, Maple 🍁 during her stay. Communication was easy and would definitely recommend her for your dog sitting needs! 🐶”
“Duke and I loved Leslie! She was super sweet and made me feel at ease since this was our first Rover experience. She was very professional and prepared. The cute pics of my baby while I was away reinforced to me that Duke was in good hands! He was instantly comfortable with her and made himself right at home! I will definitely recommend Leslie and will use her services again! ”
“Tara was great with Trapper. She was super flexible and easy to work with and sent several pics so we knew he was having fun and being well taken care of. We weren’t sure if he’d be ok playing with her dogs, but they were super sweet and immediately accepted him as part of the group. He had a blast while we were away.”
“Debbie was marvelous! We were a little nervous as our Abbey is a 13 year-old 3-pound chihuahua who is almost blind and Ghirardelli is a 6-pound bouncy poodle. Debbie has four dogs of her own. Two are huge boyzois! No worries-all four of her fur babies were very, very sweet! Debbie cuddled Abbey and our babies slept with her grandson which they absolutely loved!!! We got pics and updates every day. Debbie even waited up for our late flight so that we could get our babies as soon as we got back home. Best puppy B&B ever!!! We will be back, Debbie.”
“Sara was wonderful with Koda. Sara paid attention to all of Kodas needs. She sent such great pictures of Koda while we were gone and kept in touch. Definitely using her again. Thank you again!”
“My Basil Boi stayed with Christina for 3 days of boarding. She was very understanding and welcoming. Basil is skittish and timid however enjoys other dogs hence I selected Christina because she has her own personal dog. Christina has a fabulous backyard for the dogs to run and play. Christina was very attentive, sent plenty of pictures, texts and updates. Basil had a great time. I will definitely use her again.”
“Ruger loves his time with Kristen and her family. She sends updates daily and pictures of him. He comes home wore out from playing with her family. Will definitely stay again.”
“Mary and her husband are taking great care of their "guests". Safe place to stay with lots of love given. They take the dogs for a walk and keep you updated with pictures throughout the stay.”
“Jay was an amazing sitter for almost a week for my dog. She sent videos and pictures of him throughout each day and made him feel right at home. She was even thoughtful enough to wash his harness when it rained. It was so comforting to know he was in such good hands. I highly recommend Jay and definitely hope to have her watch my sweet Leo again!”
“Britney and her family took such great care of Homer. They loved him like their own. Britney is very communicative and flexible. Homer enjoyed playing with their dogs and sweet children. I will definitely board with Britney again.”
“Jã-Lin was amazing! She sent lots of pictures and videos. My dog seemed very happy with her and all her pets. I will always recommend her services and, if needed, will rebook with her in the future!”
“Karson and his family did a wonderful job taking care of our boy! He seemed pretty tired when we picked him up, so we know he got some quality play time. I would highly recommend this family and I look forward to working with them in the future.”
“Ann and Thomas were fantastic !! They went above and beyond to love on my little guy and I think he was happier with them than he’s ever been with other sitters. They cared for him so well!”
“James and Sofia were so amazing! Communication was difficult for us since we traveled outside the USA, but they did an amazing job. We got regular updates from them with pictures and even videos of our sweet girl. They were flexible with drop off and pick up times when our travel plans shifted on us. We felt very secure having her at thier house. Their fenced in yard is a good size and has places for a curious pup to explore safely. Shelob had such a good time with them and their cats that she seems to miss them a day after us being home. They made a big impression on her in the best way. We will definitely use them the next time we need to board our baby!”
About: I grew up on a farm and have had pets my entire life. When I was young, we breed our dogs and I raised and trained the puppies. More recently, my Mia had lots of health troubles. I got good a wound care from acl surgeries, rehab, and senior care from dm symptoms. I’m currently working part time as an interior designer. My job is very flexible! When I am working, I work from home mostly unless I have a client meeting. I walk 10k steps daily and love having a furry friend join me! I have a fully fenced yard in a quiet neighborhood. I walk the neighborhood daily. We have a dog door for easy inside outside access. Our yard stays shaded pretty much all day so it’s great for outside play!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 553 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Sunset. 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.
94% of sitters in Sunset 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 Sunset 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 Sunset.
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 Sunset. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 Sunset 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.
