“We were nervous about leaving our 2 babies with someone new. However, all nervousness quickly evaporated when we met Nicky and her husband. She made us feel so relaxed. She and her husband both were naturals with dogs. We were thrilled that she let them on her sofa and bed as that is what they are used to. Do not hesitate to book with Nicky --- we have already booked in again!”
“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!”
“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!”
“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.”
“My lil guy loved being with Mari and her sweet family. I could tell as soon as we met she loves what she does and I felt Albie would be just fine in her care. She sent me videos, pictures, and texts everyday. He had so much fun on his ‘vacation’ too! I most definitely will let him stay again. Ty!”
“Laura (and Bob) are a great asset to the Rover community. I was apprehensive about being away from Peabody, but from the original meet and greet, Laura made me feel comfortable and I knew he would be in good hands. When I dropped him off, I felt the same way. Getting all the wonderful pictures and updates every day made the time go by easier. If/when I need a pet sitter again, I will be booking with Laura for sure. Definitely Recommend!! Peabody wants to thank Lulu and Smalls for welcoming him into their home and sharing their parents with him. Woof!”
“The absolute best! From the moment we met her, I felt completely comfortable leaving Billie in her care. She is incredibly personable, caring, and attentive. Billie came home happy, exhausted from all the fun, and clearly showered with love and attention. She also had a great time playing with her adorable pup! We couldn’t be happier with the experience and can’t wait to book again. Highly recommend!”
“Rover wants me to give a review. To be fair I must ask my dogs to do the review since they are the ones that were being cared for. My experiences are/were extremely positive. Of course both Zoey and Bandit have not stopped talking about their Caitlin and all the lovings they got. They asked to go back and I will be using their sitter again.”
“Craig has cared for my standard poodle Amelia a few times now, most recently this June. She always comes home happy. He takes excellent care of her and I will always request him when I need to leave her when I travel. He communicates how she is doing, sends the most wonderful pictures of her on a regular basis. He is a gem. I am grateful that I found him.”
“Sandi is a wonderful sitter. She is clearly a dog lover and my dog was at ease in her care immediately. The pictures and communication from Sandi were excellent!! I am so happy with the 4 night stay our senior standard poodle had with Sandi and recommend her highly! 5+ star experience. I will use Sandi again!”
“We have been using Jacklyn for over a year now. She's absolutely the best dog sitter we have ever had. Our Dog Kai is like our baby, so we don't want anyone but the best to help him feel at home while we are away....and Jacklyn always makes sure that happens. Also, she has the sweetest dog ever, Stryker. He is sooo very sweet and happy, and our dog just can't wait to see him when he arrives and does not want to leave him when the time comes to leave his BFF. We would definitely recommend Jacklyn to anyone looking for a perfect dog sitter.”
“I'm so glad I reached out to Jeffrey to board my 9 year old black cat for the week. I was very concerned to "relocating" her to his home for the week during Christmas. Knowing he had no other animals in the house and kids at home during the holidays to keep her company is what made me decide to go this route. It was worth it. Although it took my Pepper time to adjust to the relocation, it turned out to be less stressful to keep her there, than leaving her home alone. (If I leave her alone for a week, she is howling in distress for days after I return) This is the 1st time in years where Pepper was actually calm after my return home. I hope Jeffrey and his family will consider taking her again for my next trip.”
“Laura’s love and understanding of dogs made it easy for me to relax during my trip. She sent pictures and kept communication open for me to get updates. I will definitely contact Laura when we go away again. Thank you for taking good care of my little man!”
“This is the 2nd time we’ve used Karla and the first time overnight. She is fantastic and easy going -which makes our dog feel very comfortable with Karla and her husband. She communicates throughout the day with pictures, videos and messages — which makes us anxious owners feel better. I would definitely use Karla agai. And highly recommend!”
“Madison was fantastic in caring for our dog while we were away for the weekend. She was very flexible and responsible to our time frame. She also has a nice home with a fenced in yard! We'd highly recommend!”
“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!!!!”
“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.”
“Jenn was amazing- very responsive via messenger and communicated with us throughout the process. Sent us pictures and videos of our dog to reassure us he was having a fabulous time! I highly recommend her to dog parents visiting Myrtle Beach!!!”
About: I’m a proud momma of two Pit Bulls that I rescued, locally. My passion for Bully breeds started 25 years ago when I adopted my first one and discovered the slobbering kisses that made me a forever fan. Over the last decade I fostered many (over 50) pregnant moms and their babies for local Rescues. I’m available anytime of the day and 7 days a week unless booked or unavailable. I also do not mind last minute drop ins. After my own experience trying to find a sitter for my two pit bulls, I realized that most sitters didn’t accept Pit Bulls and that there was a need for Pittie sitters! I love all breeds and have lots of experience.
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Surfside Beach is $45

Josh and Ashley were fantastic!! They sent me pictures and updated me for the hours my husky was with them. They did exactly what they said, took her in a nice walk and a little beach time too. Their home is lovely, open spaced with their pup, friendly with mine. I reached out to them to request and within minutes they responded to accept care. I would recommend this great couple! I would also reach out to them in the future. They aren't far from the busy part of myrtle and I like their quiet neighborhood. A few blocks away was a nice dog park too.
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.
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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Surfside Beach on Rover is $37.45 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 239 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Surfside Beach. 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.
94% of Surfside Beach 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 Surfside Beach 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 Surfside Beach 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 Surfside Beach.
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 Surfside Beach 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.
