“Lexie has a great setup! I knew that my dogs were well cared for while I was away. She sent daily videos of them playing with other dogs and of special treats she would give them. I will absolutely be using her services again.”
“Michelle was very pleasant and patient with my dog, who is not accustomed to people outside of our family. When we arrived, she made sure she understood all of our preferences regarding eating, sleeping, and socializing. Throughout our time away, she sent pictures and text updates on how my dog was adjusting. When we picked Max up, he was clean, calm, and doing great overall. A great experience!”
“Aiko did a great job with Brock she was very patient and understanding with him even when he had an accident when he first arrived .I would definitely recommend Aiko and I hope to have her as a sitter again.”
“Really loved having Monstro stay with Debbie for 3 years! She always took great care of him and went above and beyond every time! Never had to worry when I would travel because I knew he would be in great hands!”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life and couldn’t imagine it any other way. My cat Chanel has been with me for 5 years and my cocker spaniel Bentley for 1 year. I’ll treat your pets like my own with plenty of walks, cuddles, and love. I know how important it is to feel at ease when you’re away from your fur babies and I’ll make sure they’re happy and cared for. I have a flexible schedule and am able to go home throughout the day and check on your pet if I’m not already home. I am usually home all weekend and if not then your pet is welcome to join my activities! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a pet‑friendly apartment community with three dog parks, giving plenty of safe space to run and play. I’ll always keep a close eye on them, provide fresh water, and make sure they feel happy, loved, and cared for in a secure environment.
“Martina was a great sitter to Sadé! She gave Sadé plenty of outside time and her kids were great with Sadé as well. She was accommodating and flexible with her schedule. I will definitely book again!”
About: I’ve always had a genuine love for dogs and enjoy making them feel safe, comfortable, and at home. I have experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, and I understand that every dog has their own routine and needs. I provide a clean, safe, and loving home environment where dogs can relax, play, receive plenty of attention, and be treated like part of the family. I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, daily routines, administering basic care, and making sure each dog gets the individual attention they deserve. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog, especially when you’re away. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind while making sure their dogs are happy, comfortable, and well cared for throughout their stay. I also love keeping owners updated with photos and messages so you can see how your pup is doing while you’re away. 🐾❤️ I’m home most of the day, so caring for dogs fits naturally into my daily routine. I have plenty of time to play with them, let them outside, and give them attention throughout the day. I’m also pretty flexible with drop-off and pick-up times and always try to make things easy for pet parents. I want every dog that stays with me to feel comfortable and at home. I have a fenced yard where they can safely go outside, play, and enjoy some fresh air. I always keep an eye on the dogs and make sure everyone gets along. I also follow each owner’s instructions because I know every dog has their own routine and personality.
“Celia is absolutely amazing. Our dog almost didn't want to leave after staying with her for a long weekend. She provided pictures and updates multiple times throughout the day. Will definitely use her again as she has truly set the bar for dog sitters!”
“Very flexible and helped me with a last minute need for my 2 dogs. The dogs came back smiling and happy and seemed to enjoy their stay. We will be scheduling in the future!!!!!!”
“Amazing sitter!!! Teddy was right at home:) carol was so kind to watch him last minute and has the perfect spot for small dogs. Teddy loved the fenced back yard, snuggle time, and the chance to make a new small dog friend. We cannot wait to use Carol again! Highly recommend.”
“Sebastian was fantastic with our dog. He shared pics multiple times a day and gave us consistent updates. Our dog had a wonderful time and was well cared for while visiting. They have a very large fenced backyard that allows for zoomies and exploring. We will be using him again in the future.”
“Adia was very loving and accommodating for our nervous pup. We also really appreciated her willingness to work with us when plans changed during the trip. Will definitely use her again in the future.”
About: I have had a dog (childhood puppy at home) my whole life and she is my best friend! I have fostered multiple puppies, some who aren’t potty trained, and have experience overnight sitting. My roommates also love to have pets around! I am a full time graduate student with a part time job, but will be home a lot and love to get exercise walking. I also have 5 other roommates who would be happy to help out if I am busy with class. I have a front patio for quality outside time, but it is not fenced. I will be outside with your pet whenever we hang out on the patio, otherwise we will be inside.
“I am so happy Emma was available last weekend! My dog, Stella, can be really skittish around new people but she warmed up to Emma immediately. Emma spoiled Stella while I was away...walks, visiting the dog park, puppacinnos, etc. I don't think Stella was ready to come home! Very happy with my experience and would absolutely recommend Emma.”
“Zac took great care of Beau, our GSP, while we were out of town. Beau clearly had a great time while he was there and I’m sure it was all due to the great big yard to run around in and other dog friends to play with. Will definitely use Zac’s services again in the future.”

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Swansea is $30 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 and $49 per night.

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.
96% of sitters in Swansea 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 Swansea home-away-from-home, 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 Swansea.
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 Swansea 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 , 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 .
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.
