“Our first time leaving our dog with Veronica was a great experience. She took care of all of his needs including giving him medications as prescribed. We have already booked Veronica again for a longer stay this summer when we will be out of the country, and we are confident he will be in good hands.”
“Jared & Ly M. did such an amazing job with our Lab Blue. We got constant pictures during our time away, we missed him tremendously but Jared and Ly shared so many pictures throughout the day that it put us at ease. We appreciate so much their way of taking care of him. They were the best!!!! We will definitely book them again. Blue was so happy at all times. Thank you much for everything.”
“Klarissa is truly a dog lover. She takes such good care of her own two small dogs and they make the stay more like a play date than a boarding. They get along with other dogs very well. She keeps her house and yard immaculate and took great care of our little Cavalier. I always miss my dog when I am away but knowing that our little “Lady Luck” was safe, well loved and cared for, and had other dogs to play with made it so much easier to be away. I will definitely consider her my first choice in the future.”
“Our Sadie had a great time while away playing and running in their backyard. We loved the picture updates and hearing about her day while we were gone. Will definitely book with Nikki again!”
“We had a wonderful experience boarding our golden with Fabienne! She is such a sweet individual and obviously has a passion and love for animals. She updated us often with pictures and videos to see how he was doing. He had so much fun! We will definitely book with Fabienne again!”
“Matthew and Heidi took excellent care of our 2 dogs while we were away for 10 days at Thanksgiving. We really appreciated the photos and updates about how our dogs were doing and how they interacted with their family members and the other dogs at the house.”
“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.”
“Lucy had a great time with Edward and his dog Ruger. Edward was a good communicator and I had a lot of pictures showing me all her activities. I will definitely use him again.”
About: Hi! My name is Merry Lu, and my husband and I are big dog lovers! We have two dogs of our own and absolutely love giving them a happy, loving home. We enjoy dog sitting because it gives us the chance to meet and spend time with different dogs while letting our own pups make some new furry friends along the way! We understand that your dogs are part of your family, and we’ll treat them just like they’re part of ours. Whether it’s playtime, walks, cuddles, or just keeping them company, we’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. A little about our furry family: 🐾 Rowena – Our sweet 6-year-old Lab mix 🐾 Hunter – Our lovable 15-year-old Westie We can’t wait to meet you and your fur babies! ❤️ I’m a full-time cardiac sonographer, so I work five days a week, about 8 hours a day. My husband and I have two dogs of our own, and we understand how important it is for dogs to get plenty of exercise, attention, and love. Since our dogs are home while we’re at work, we make it a priority to take them on walks and spend quality time with them when we’re home. We thought dog sitting would be a wonderful way for our dogs to make new furry friends while giving other dogs a loving home away from home! We want every dog who stays with us to feel comfortable, included, and cared for. Our goal is to make their time here feel less like being away from home and more like a fun little vacation with new friends! 🐾 We have a nice-sized, fully fenced backyard where the dogs can safely run around, play, and enjoy some fresh air! We also have two dog crates available for pups who are crate-trained, along with several cozy dog beds so everyone has a comfortable place to relax and nap.
“Lindsey was excellent and you can tell her and her household truly have a love for animals. They were flexible and accommodating for us and super easy to communicate and coordinate with. We look forward to booking our next stay with Lindsey :)”
“Im so happy to find Briana as she was a wonderful care giver to my Ruby and Gus for our 5 day family vacation. I highly recommend Briana and Madison in taking excellent care of anyone's pets in their home. Thank you again Briana!”

They a routine potty breaks. I have a huge backyard they can all run and play around in.
“This was the second time I’ve had my dogs stay with Karen, and she was great with them again! She was generously flexible when we had some slight changes in plans leaving as well as it taking me longer to drive home than expected. She was able to adjust literally last second to one of my girls needing to take an antibiotic. Very grateful for Karen and would definitely recommend her!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover dedicated to giving your pets the same care and attention I give my own. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or cozy snuggles, I make sure your furry friend feels safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I have senior and puppy experience. I currently work full time as a dental hygienist but my husband works a lot of weekends so I would love to find some more babies to love on! My fur children are my life. We have a lot of fun on our small mini dog farm. Wagging tails, happy purrs, and plenty of play—your pets are in for a fun time with me! Whether it’s fetch, treats, or just couch cuddles, I’m here to keep them smiling while you’re away.

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.
95% of sitters in Ware Shoals 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 Ware Shoals 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 Ware Shoals.
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 Ware Shoals. On Rover:

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 Ware Shoals 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.
