“Nicole was wonderful! She sent lots of pictures of Otis and their fun adventures together. I know Otis was well cared for and got lots of snuggles. I highly recommend Nicole!”

“My dogs seemed to be on their own vacation with Oceana- she took them for walks on the beach & to the marsh. I got daily photo updates & texts about their daily activities. I will be using her services when I go out of town in the future!”


About: Hello! I have loved animas all my life. I have owned many and spent years working at a veterinary hospital. I have a sweet little dog of my own and a little boy who helps to love and care for them. We would love to help care for your pets when you need! I work full time (9-5), however I frequently work from home and when I am in the office, I can come home when I need to tend to my own dog or any other pets. I am home weekends and all holidays. I have a very friendly mini Goldendoodle and a sweet little 9 year old boy. My yard is not fenced in, however we take many walks and love to explore the woods and ponds in the back yard!
“Maddie and Granger were awesome! Chessie had such a good time and was exhausted when she got home—a good sign, for her! She even ate for Maddie, which is astonishing—she is sooo finicky! We got pictures and video and could definitely tell she was having fun. When she got home she curled up on the sofa and crashed. We can’t wait for her to go back!”

“Felt very comfortable with Sandi and her husband. Sandi sent us daily updates with pictures. Her two golden retrievers are so sweet. We know our Charlie had a good time with the other guests - he has slept the whole car ride home.”

“We had a fantastic experience with Jeffrey! Our Birdie had a great time. She had lots of walks, play time, and snuggles. We appreciated the updates and pictures while we were away! Many thanks to Jeffrey and his family for the great care for our pup!”

“We recently made a last-minute trip to Myrtle Beach and were incredibly fortunate to find Craig through our dog boarding service. From the very beginning, Craig was exceptionally accommodating, understanding our need for flexibility with pick-up and drop-off times. His willingness to adjust his schedule allowed our dogs to join us on the beach and truly enjoy the experience. Craig’s kindness and dedication to the well-being of our pets were evident throughout, and we couldn’t have asked for a better person to look after them. Thank you, Craig, for your outstanding service and for making our vacation stress-free. We highly recommend Craig to anyone in need of reliable and caring pet care!”

“Jacklyn was the best dog sitter ever. She treated our German Shepherd pup so well that he wanted to stay with her instead of coming back home with us :) her super friendly beautiful dog, Stryker, is the most friendly dog I've ever seen. He made my dog feel welcome immediately. I would definitely recommend Jacklyn to all my friends and family without hesitation. My dog Kai can't wait to go back to Jacklyn and Stryker.”

“We are always anxious about leaving our dogs when we go away. But we had nothing to worry about. Mary did a great job with them. Each day the photos showed the dogs more comfortable looking though they were too small for the fence restraint, she took them for walks often. I will definitely leave them with Mary again. Her kindness shined through.”

“This is our 3rd time using Karla - the first time was just for daycare, the 2nd and 3rd time were for 4 overnight stays. Karla is very caring and communicative — she sends videos through the day to keep us informed and reassured that our dog is doing well. We will certainly use Karla again as the need arises.”

“Lori C. is an absolute treasure. She took such great care of Aksel even providing him with a pup cup. He was at ease and very comfortable under Lori's care. Aksel had warmed up to her and had responded to her, running to her as he does with us. She is kind and responsive and definitely an animal lover. We would whole heartedly trust Lori C. with Aksel. Having him stay in sitter's home is 100% preferable than leaving him with a pet boarding place since he has one on one care and loving attention from a trained sitter. We would highly recommend Lori C. and would arrange any future plans with her again. It felt like we were leaving Aksel with a trusted family member.”

“Caitlin and her family were AMAZING!! I was very nervous as this was our first time going out of town with our Zen and also having him stay with a sitter. Caitlin was very responsive and answered all of my questions She was flexible when our arrival time was pushed back and allowed us to pick him up during our stay to spend time with him. It was clear that he was loved on while he was with them!! I would 190% recommend Caitlin and we plan to book with her again!!”

About: I have significant experience with pet dogs and day to day care. I incorporate structured walks, appropriate enrichment, and clear boundaries to create a safe and balanced environment. I was responsible for daily kennel operations, including cleaning and sanitizing kennels, managing play yards, and maintaining overall structure and safety. I am trained in basic canine first aid, including CPR, wound care, bandaging, and medication administration. I am also experienced in safely breaking up dog altercations and handling high-drive and working breeds with confidence and control. I provide trainer led care, backed by formal education and hands on experience in the canine training field. I completed an intensive six month professional dog trainer program at Highland Canine Training, where I entered the industry through real world, practical application working with a wide variety of dogs. During the program, I trained and handled police K9s in apprehension work, narcotics detection, and search and rescue (SAR) trailing. I also gained experience working with service dogs for autism assistance and assurance. My education included extensive work with dogs experiencing behavioral challenges, along with foundational through advanced obedience training. I have experience managing reactive dogs and confidently advocating for their space and needs. I’m highly proficient in reading canine body language and adjusting my approach to best support each individual dog. Training is my full-time job. I also offer boarding, pet sitting, and walks as part of my services. My schedule is built around my training clients, and I only take on pet care bookings I can fully commit to. Fully fenced yard with two of my own friendly dogs to help provide safe companionship. If your dog is not dog friendly, no worries, my dogs will not interact. A separate kennel area is available for rest breaks and feedings. Daily health checks and thorough daily cleaning practices are implemented to ensure a safe and clean environment.
About: I’ve had dogs all my life. My fiancé and I work from home and have a 3 year old beagle, so we only require yours to be friendly with other dogs! (+ potty trained, of course) We do travel frequently so availability may not be 100%, but we will answer any questions relatively quickly We work from home! Sunday mornings we are likely at church, Wednesday nights we typically out for a few hours as well. Pretty flexible though, we aren’t out too much We treat our dog like the king of the house. I assure you your pet will be well-supervised and well-spoiled! We allow our dog free reign of the house, same with yours!
“Debby, or “Aunt Debby” as Knox calls her 😊 provided the best care that I could ask for. I was able to relax on my vacation with peace of mind that my best friend was at home with her. Debby sent informative updates and photos so being away from him was easier. I think he’ll sleep like a baby for a week since she exercised him routinely. He’s a black Lab and it’s hot here in Myrtle Beach, but I didn’t worry since Debby’s level of emergency medical knowledge is far beyond that of any kennel. I will definitely book Camp Debby next time I need to travel without him. Thank you!!!!”

“I was very pleased having my animals stay with Madison. My dog was having some gastrointestinal problems before my trip but Madison said she would still keep him. I was worried my kittens would hide and this might affect them but they are active as ever Again I would recommend Madison for boarding.”

“Amy was great with our dog, Charlie. He suffers from separation anxiety which seems to be getting worse. He wasn't doing well at all in the hotel room so we decided to try a sitter. He was restless his first day, but that was to be expected. By day 2 he was having a great time with her pups! She saved our vacation and Charlie got to have play dates. Win win! Thanks again Amy!”

Surfside Beach dog parents share their Rover experiences
Nicole was wonderful with our pup. Papi is a very skittish and anxious pup. This was our first time leaving him in someone’s home so we were very nervous. Nicole sent us regular updates and pictures while we were gone for 5 days and Papi looked happy. I would not hesitate to leave Papi in Nicole’s care again. Highly recommend her!

Sydnee was great! Our dog loved her and hated to leave. She was very responsive and able to extend the visit by a day, totally unexpected. Sydnee was also able to change our dates to the following week, when there was a change in plans (my hospital admission was pushed back by 1 wk) We plan to use her again, when they times comes.

Oceana did a great job with my dog and cat. I would definitely use her again they were very well cared for. She sent pictures and could tell they were comfortable there. She was able to take care of them on short notice. I would definitely recommend using her for your pets.
