“Sarah was extremely easy to work with and Jasper had a great time with her dog Jimmy and her family. Communication was excellent and Jasper loved his time at her home!”
“Richard was watching my puppy when hurricane Helene hit. Despite the chaos and crisis he stayed in communication as best he could and kept her safe the entire time I was gone. Words can’t express my gratitude. Aside from that, he was very accommodating of her puppy needs and took great care of her.”
“Jen was wonderful. Went out of her way to make sure the dog would be safe and happy. Bought her a toy, walked her a bunch and sent her home happy and worn out from playing. She was a lovely person, easy to correspond with, and took great care of Flora. Thank you, Jen!”
“Kristin was great with our dog, Biscuit. She was very responsive and easy to coordinate with for drop off and pickup! We received pictures during our stay and picked up a happy puppy. I would recommend Kristin to anyone!”
“Bojangles had the BEST time with Laird and her son. During the meet and great she made sure all of us were comfortable with the space. During the time she had our pup she sent plenty of pictures and communicated with us throughout the trip. Her son was so loving with Bo and it was obvious when I picked him up that he wasn't done playing yet. I think we've found a trusted sitter with Laird.”
“We had Vicky watch our dachshund Vienna for the first time last weekend and we couldn’t be happier. Vienna looked so happy and Vicky sent us lots of photos and videos along the way. We really appreciate having someone we trust watch our little girl! Highly recommend!”
“Absolute best experience! So grateful we found Kali to take care of our pup during vacation. Great communication, and we know Belle was very well cared for! Lots of play time and snuggles. We loved getting videos and updates along the way. Couldn’t have asked for a better place for our sweet girl and we will definitely be sending her back. Thank you! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Katie and Jeremy are absolutely wonderful- they have watched our dog a few times, and every time has been 10/10. They treat him like gold, and honestly probably give him even more love than we do at home… it’s evident in all the much-appreciated pictures they send. As people who have used Rover for many years, and received care from many different people, Katie and Jeremy are by far the best people we have been lucky enough to come across!!! <3”
“Terri and her husband were so SWEET to me and Ares. They have the best little farm for my dog to run around on. He had the best time staying with them and I would absolutely use her again. They are such kind people!”
“I am officially a repeat customer! Caroline is easy to work with and flexible when things need to change. I feel very comfortable leaving my doggie with her and her family.”
“When I say this is the best sitter I’ve had my doodle comes back hydrated looking and smelling fresh and clean and most of all happy I appreciate the offer and beyond you are very kind and we are thankful Kay & Koko”
“Toby had a great weekend with Ali and Penny. Ali took great care of him, gave frequent updates, and went above and beyond in her flexibility and taking care of our boy. Will definitely be asking her to watch Toby again next time I need a sitter.”
“Ethan & Hope were excellent communicators. Our pup was well cared for and had a great time playing with the other dogs. The yard is spacious and fenced in, with a beautiful garden. Would definitely recommend!”
“Jose and Maria always take excellent care of my little dog! I receive daily updates including pictures and videos. When I travel, I don’t worry about my little girl because she’s in wonderful hands! Thank you guys!”
“Kyle was great! My sweet girl Hope is very shy, but Kyle gave me assurance that she would be well taken care of and she was. She came out of her shell and even play with their dog Lou. I highly recommend her and will use her services in the future. Thanks again Kyle, Randy and Lou!”
“Joseph and Andrea are so fantastic! Great communication before and during our pup’s stay. She had an amazing time and we would definitely trust them with our sweet girl again!”
About: Lifelong animal lover with a soft spot for dogs, cats, and just about any four-legged friend! I’ve been trusted by friends, family, and neighbors to care for their pets and homes, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m an active person who loves getting outside, so whether your dog enjoys leisurely neighborhood walks, playing fetch, swimming, hiking local trails, or going on new adventures, I’m happy to match their energy and personality. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments—from laid-back lap dogs to high-energy adventure companions—and I’m committed to making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m currently available Monday through Friday and have a flexible schedule to fit your pet’s needs. Whether it’s an early morning walk, a midday potty break, an afternoon adventure, or an evening check-in, I’m here to provide dependable, loving care whenever you need it. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, my goal is to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, exercise, medications (if needed), and any special care to ensure your pet feels comfortable and safe. I live on a large property with plenty of room for dogs to explore, play, and enjoy supervised outdoor time. We also have quiet dirt roads that are perfect for walks. For dogs who love getting out and about, I’m happy to visit local parks and trails like Richmond Hill, the River Arts District Greenway, Bent Creek, and other areas throughout North and West Asheville—always with your permission and only if it’s a good fit for your dog’s personality and activity level. I’ll also send regular photo updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, active, and well cared for.
“Allison was great with Kevin and made us feel at ease on our vacation. She sent daily updates with pictures and details about their day, and made him feel right at home. I’d highly recommend her and will use her in the future!”
“Erin took great care of our sweet dog, Lily. She was easy to communicate with, replied quickly, and sent pictures to let us know how much fun Lily was having playing in the river with Erin. I will be using her again, soon, and would highly recommend her to anyone!”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Asheville is CA$50
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Asheville
Jackson and Nichole were wonderful when caring for our boys! They were open, kind, flexible, and understanding. We were in a pinch, and they worked with us. When Luka was acting out of character, they worked with him and us, knowing he is a puppy. Their sweet dog, Indie, was a great playmate for the boys, and I am sure they miss her. We highly recommend them!
Laird took wonderful care of Satchi. She is kind, attentive, and exudes the confidence that comes with experience (which included flawlessly administering his meds). Throughout Satchi’s stay, Laird sent numerous photos and videos that captured him having a great time playing with his new pals, along with others showing him happily relaxed and content. Those updates gave me complete peace of mind and made it clear that Satchi was not only well cared for, but genuinely enjoying himself. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend Laird to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and experienced pet sitter, and I will gladly book with her again.
Golda was great! Very communicative and sent several pictures of our pup while we were away. She has a great fenced in yard that our dog loved, he was very happy when we picked him up and seemed to be well taken care of. 10/10 would recommend and will be using her again!
Kyle was a great pet sitter! She is super friendly, very responsive in communication, and provides steady updates on how things are going. Her dog, Louie, is a total sweetie and Raz obviously liked hanging out with him. Raz was happy and healthy when I picked him up, which is the whole point! I would definitely recommend Kyle and look forward to contacting her again.
Melissa was so great! We recently adopted our dog and needed pet sitting for the weekend of July 4th. She was very accommodating and adaptable to changing needs and the unknown of how our dog would respond to fireworks. She sent us very comforting updates and pictures. We were so grateful to know our girl was in such great hands and really appreciated her expertise.
I highly recommend Nate’s services. He was very gracious to us when searching for boarding before a holiday weekend. The meet and greet process was seamless, and I genuinely feel like my dog had an excellent time during her stay. During her board, we received many photos of her having a blast or otherwise comfortably fast asleep. If you book with Nate and Bilbo, you won’t regret it.
Elise is a doll. My dog Kapone was so happy & comfortable with her & her dog Punto. My dog was at her home for 4 days & nights. She sent video & pictures of him being super happy at her home. She cared for him like he was her own dog. That makes a big difference. She asked questions concerning ,helt, meals & exercise when I dropped Kapone off. She did a meet & greet with the dogs to make sure everyone got along. I believe helps out a lot for the dogs. Shes sweet & caring. If I was not moving to another state I'd have her watch Kapone any time I had to leave town. I highly recommend her as your dog sitter. ☺️🤗
Madison was amazing. She not only provided boarding for Ranger, she treated him like one of her own pups. She was extremely communicative, sent pics and videos, and played with him a ton. She took him on little excursions, and provided toys to play with. The most telling was when I picked him up, Ranger greeted me, but went back to give her some love also. I'll definitely book with Madison again.
Jackie was awesome! Very easy to work with and took excellent care of our puppy. During Daisy’s stay, Jackie communicated daily with photos and videos. Daisy had a blast with Jackie and her friends. She was able to go on several adventures, which were important experiences for Daisy. I’d highly recommend Jackie to anyone.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Asheville on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 366 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Asheville. 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.
90% of Asheville 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 Asheville 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 Asheville 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 Asheville.
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 Asheville 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.
