“Ashley was wonderful from start to finish — from our first chat to the meet & greet and throughout Millie’s stay. She’s incredibly responsive, accommodating, and just so easy to work with. The whole experience felt seamless and completely stress-free. During Millie’s stay, Ashley sent regular updates, photos, and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that Millie was happy, comfortable, and very well cared for. I trust Ashley with Millie so much that I’ve already booked another stay with her! I’m so grateful we found her and would happily & highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, attentive, and dependable sitter.”
“Brittany was amazing! She and her family took great care of our Daisy. She was kind, caring and provided a warm and welcoming home for our sometimes shy and timid dog. She sent daily updates with pictures and even some videos, which really put us at ease while we were away. We definitely hope to use her again and highly recommend her.”
“Tori and her family took such great care of our small older dog who has some health issues including med administration needs and occasional pain due to previous cancer. Everything from getting holly to their home (Tori last minute offered to pick Holly Up and this was a godsend because our trip was last minute and we were trying to coordinate many other things) to start her visit to pick up and updates in between were great. Her sons are very gentle and natural animal lovers so that was not any concern even though our dog generally prefers calm environments. I would highly recommend Tori and her family for caring for your pet!”
“Thank you so much for taking such great care of (and spoiling) Remi while we were away. This was our first time using Rover, and honestly, knowing she was with such a caring family helped us truly relax and enjoy our vacation. It was clear from the updates, photos and videos that she was happy, and well cared for, and that meant so much to us. We really appreciate the time, and extra attention, you showed her. Thank you again for giving us such peace of mind — we would absolutely trust you with her again in the future.”
“Kordula was great with our puppy it’s obvious she was well taken care of ! We enjoyed the daily update photos to know our baby girl was in good hands ! Highly recommend !!”
“Your fur baby will be in good hands with Andrea! We boarded our pup with her for the weekend and I could not be happier! She’s very experienced working with dogs, having two dogs of her own. Andrea provided plenty of updates throughout our dog’s stay and met each of his needs. Our dog came home so happy and we could not be more thankful!”
“Erica took amazing care of our pup for six nights, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. She provided detailed daily check-ins with lots of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. You can tell she is a true dog lover and genuinely enjoyed spending time with our dog. Her kids were wonderful as well and clearly loved having our pup there. Our dog was absolutely spoiled with attention and care. We are so grateful to Erica and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter!”
“Can’t say enough great things about David and Stephanie…from being available to board often, to the great care and attention they give to our Tebow, as evidenced by the pictures and updates…..we couldn’t be happier and more comfortable to leave our fur-baby in their care while we are away!”
“Cathy was a wonderful sitter! She followed all our instructions, sent lots of updates and pics, and genuinely connected with our pup. We felt so good knowing our dog was in great hands. Would absolutely book with Cathy again!”
“Sarah took very good care of our 15 yr old dog Royce. She sent pictures and made sure he got just what he needed, lots of love! Would definitely recommend her and will use her again!”
“Kona was well taken care of by Yaryna and her family. She came home happy and full of energy. I got daily updates on how she was doing. She also got some good walks, which not all Rover sitters will do. I liked how she only takes one pet at a time. Very happy.”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care Bruno received during his stay with Lesley and her sweet family! This was his second stay, and the moment we dropped him off, he was so excited to see Lesley. That alone gave us so much peace of mind. Lesley followed every instruction we provided and made sure Bruno stayed on his normal routine. We also loved receiving photo updates twice a day, every day, which helped us relax and enjoy our vacation knowing he was happy, safe, and well cared for. It honestly felt like he was on his own vacation! It’s clear that Lesley and her family genuinely care for the pets they watch, and we are so grateful for the excellent care and communication. We will definitely be booking again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter! Thank you Lesley & family!!”
“Crystal is an absolutely amazing furbaby sitter! I have never been away from my baby for more than 2 days and this trip I took was 7 days - and I never had a worry! My Sammie is almost 15 years old and a bit picky, but once I saw him prancing in the video she sent, I really knew everything was well. I cannot express my appreciation enough! I will be looking for you again next April now that I know I can vacation with peace of mind. Thank you again, Crystal! Book her - she will give your babies love! 😊”
“Tiffany provided exceptional care for Gimlet! Since it was his first time boarding, I was extremely nervous about how he would interact with other dogs. Tiffany completely put my mind at ease. She ensured he got plenty of socialization but also provided private spaces for him to retreat to whenever he needed a break. Gimlet had a fantastic time, made new friends, and came home happy. I highly recommend her, especially for first-time boarders.”
“They were just wonderful! I got updates and pictures daily. She had a great time and we were able to enjoy our trip fully knowing she was in trusted hands!”
“Tim and Jen and their sweet family were amazing to my fur baby. He loved all the special attention from the kiddos and received countless pets and snuggles. I returned home to a very happy (and tired lol) boy! Definitely will be booking again and recommend this sweet family!”
“Mary and Jonathan went above and beyond when watching my pup! She got plenty of exercise, potty breaks, and cuddles. They provided consistent updates with pictures, videos, and messages and were incredibly understanding and flexible when my travel plans changed on short notice. For the first time, I didn't feel anxious leaving my pup behind when I was out of town. I will definitely be rebooking with them.”
“Apollo had a great stay with Chantel. She made sure my fur baby was comfortable and cared for. Chantel sent pictures, updates and just spoiled him! Thanks much! Will use Chantel again.”

Tim & Allison & family always take excellent care of my senior dog. This time was no different. We booked Buddy's stay for a weekend while we celebrated our daughter's wedding. Already planning his next stay for our next family wedding in the fall. Thanks for coming to my rescue when I was dropping Buddy off & had car trouble.
Paula was incredibly kind and caring. She and her son took wonderful care of my toy poodle , and it was clear she was happy, comfortable, and well loved during her stay. I really appreciated the updates and would absolutely trust Paula with my dog again. Highly recommend!
This was our first time boarding our young Chloe with Erica and it was a great experience! She was super flexible with our drop-off and pick-up times, and sent us some fun pics and videos of our baby, who seemed to be having a ball with the other doggies that were there at her house. Erica was also very responsive when I checked in to see how things were going at various times throughout our trip. We will definitely use Erica again!
Dan always goes above and beyond for my dog. I have trusted her several times with my rescue dog - he has a history of abuse and so can be wary of strangers, but from day 1 he has been trusting and adoring with Dan. She continues to provide top notch care - always keeping me updated on him and clearly providing high quality care. She truly cares about the animals she babysits and provides great peace of mind for owners.
Kelsey and Trevor took such good care of Moi! He had an amazing time playing with Darcy and Delilah. it’s the best to have buddies for everyday play dates. I loved the updates and they were even able to take him on long walks. I feel so lucky to have found someone who cares this much. We will definitely be back! 😊 🐾Thank you so much!!
Kara took excellent care of my fur baby while I was gone. She kept me up to date with pics and feedback. My baby was definitely spoiled by her. I will definitely book with her again when needed. Highly recommend if you need someone to look after your dog and who only looks after one dog at a time.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Apex on Rover is $48.15 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 2,063 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Apex. 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.
96% of Apex 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 Apex 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 Apex 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 Apex.
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 Apex 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 NC 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.
