“Angela and Rick truly loved on our Harley. They welcomed Harley into their home as if she was family. Even allowed her on their furniture. They took and sent daily pictures of Harley making herself at home. It was awsome not having to worry about Harley. Harley definitely made new friends. I would highly recommend Angela and Rick to care for your fur babies. We will be booking with them again! Thank you Rover.com for connecting us to Angela and Rick!!!”
“Emily is an excellent dog sitter. I've used her twice and will continue in the future. My dog is very comfortable with her in which gives me peace. Excellent communication and she sends pic. She's a great person.”
“Laura is the best!! She loved our puppy as much as we do. Laura was kind, kept up updated on Remy and sent us updates and photos every few days. She was also very communicative which made us feel safe. Lovely experience and we will for sure be using her services again soon!”
“Kelly is a very good, great home, wonderful neighborhood. Finn apparently enjoyed his stay and buddied up, knowing he was well taken care of. Highly recommended Kelly.”
“Rebecca is absolutely AMAZING! She took such great care of my sweet Etta and sent tons of adorable photos of her playing with the other dogs—Etta looked like she was having the time of her life. She even ate really well, which is rare when she’s away from home. Honestly, I’m a little embarrassed to admit that Etta seemed sad to leave all her new friends and come home to just me, haha! Rebecca is incredibly communicative, her home is spotless, and Etta smelled so good when she came back—I genuinely thought she had been given a bath, but it turns out that was just the lovely scent of Rebecca’s home. Also, her partner is just as kind and welcoming, which made me feel even more at ease. I truly can’t recommend Rebecca enough. She’s the best!”
“Shayne & Jonathan were amazing watching our corgi for the first time. We recently moved to the area and were very nervous about having to leave him already. They gave him so much love and kept us updated the entire stay. They were so accommodating schedule wise as well and made sure he was ready to come home when we got there. We will absolutely be using them again knowing he was so well cared for!”
“I feel very fortunate to have found Mary, for she took such wonderful care of Casper while I was out of the country. I received an update, including a picture or video, every day that I was gone. She and her husband Larry are very special finds, and Casper looks forward to another with visit with them in the future!”
“I am so thankful we found you guys! Our dogs had an amazing time and were carefully looked after and happy while we were away. The daily check ins really provided peace of mind and left us worry free while on vacation. Would 100% recommend to any of my friends or family looking for a rover to book with you!”
About: I have grooming, training, & boarding experience. I’m experienced in administering medications; pills, eye drops, shots, etc. Animals are my peace so I’d love to give a peace of mind to others😊 I’m available full time, there are currently 6 dogs & 2 cats in my house & the pups get outside about 3-5 times a day depending on the weather. I also have a 3 year old whos with me 3 days out of the week. I have a fenced in yard, all of my pups & my sisters are crated when not supervised. I would prefer crates brought when staying with me just for safety reasons! & if I were to watch your pup in your hone they’d get the same love & care they receive from you😊
“Mrs Jada is very friendly and patient. Environment is clean. She kept my puppies entertained during their stay with her. They clearly happy when I picked them up. Would definitely request her services again in the future.”
“Couldn’t be more grateful for Garrett and how well he took care of our girl, Sky! Garrett was so patient with us as this was our first time with Rover. He was considerate and informative from our initial messages to the meet and greet and then throughout the entire process. He provided multiple updates (including pictures!) on how Sky was doing each day, and even how much she was having fun with his dog, Dax. Garrett was even kind enough to stay near Sky during meal-time as she was a little nervous eating her meals alone. Garrett’s kindness, communication and the care he offered Sky was stellar. It makes me feel so comfortable knowing we have a great care option for Sky whenever needed—would definitely book again!”
“Kimi is my first choice for someone to watch Kep. She has been fantastic for drop-in visits during a long work day, short overnights, as well as a longer stay while we went on vacation. Kep always comes home super happy. He is excited to go and "See Kimi". I know that she is an experienced dog/pet parent and I trust her judgment. She has systems in place to keep Kep safe and having fun. She also asks questions about what he is used to, and my preferences as a dog parent for his care. Always quick to communicate, and I love the updates on how he is doing. I would 100% recommend Kimi and will be asking her to watch Kep again!”
“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: I have had dogs my entire life. I currently have two at the moment. A Long haired chihuahua and a Boston Terrier. I have been dog sitting my best friends dogs when she goes out of town. My mom owns a Golden Retriever who is over all the time at my house. I work a 9 to 5 with a very flexible schedule. Most weekends I am home as well I am working a full time job from 830 to 5pm but it is a very flexible schedule for me. I do not usually do anything on weekends. I love going for walks with my dogs and playing outside in the back yard a lot I treat and care for my own pets like they are my children. I will do the same for your dogs. They a routine potty breaks. I have a huge backyard they can all run and play around in.
“Terry was a pleasure to work with! Having never boarded before, he made me feel very at ease and comfortable leaving our girl with them! He was knowledgeable and very engaged with a fun loving attitude. They kept me informed and sent lots of photos that made me feel even better! We will definitely use Terry and Kristal again!”
“Vanessa was absolutely wonderful with my Terk. She kept me posted with updates and pictures while I was away. I came home to a happy pup who had a blast with her pup as well. I will definitely be taking Vanessa as a sitter in the future. Not only was she great with Terk but so pleasant to communicate with.”
“April kept my pup for 9 days while I was away on vacation. I returned to a very happy Sergeant. With only watching one dog at a time, lots of one on one time. Will most certainly use April in the future!”
“Haley, Was really great with my boy Sherlock. I was very happy with her professionalism and attention to care for my Sherlock. As well as the updates easing my mind that he was in good hands. Thank you Haley”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 635 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across West Pelzer. 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.
95% of sitters in West Pelzer 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 West Pelzer 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 West Pelzer.
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 West Pelzer. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 West Pelzer 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.
