Rick went above and beyond to make sure our weird, skittish (and lovable!) dog got settled in and comfortable while we were away. He took Gizmo out of the house for hikes, which really made him happy. Couldn’t recommend him more to take great care of your pups.

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.

We had a last minute boarding request and Molly was there to our rescue. Our Lab puppies loved running and playing in her huge fenced yard. Molly's two dogs accepted them into their pack in seconds and the fun zoomies began. We received several great pictures throughout their stay and could tell our pups were in good hands.

Thank you Jen for taking such great care of my pup! I could tell Pippa was instantly drawn to you during the meet and greet (which doesn’t happen with just anyone.) Through daily updates and photos, Pippa looked relaxed, happy, and most of all LOVED. I would definitely recommend Jen to anyone!

We highly recommend Brody! He took incredible care of our 2yo poodle, who had never stayed overnight anywhere before. Our pup, Pierre, made a new friend named Blu and had a blast. We'll definitely be booking Brody again!

Golda and her husband were great hosts for our dog Ringo. Ringo usually gets a little nervious staying away from us but it was clear when we picked him up that he was very comfortable with their family, children and a few other dogs in the big fenced yard to play in. We will definitely use Golda again!

Laird was stellar home away from home for our fur baby! Her beautiful, secure back yard was perfect for lots of carefree romping and running and he was showered with TLC by the whole family! Franklin is already planning his next visit! Thanks Laird!!

Megan and her family were amazing with our two pups! She has a great fenced in yard with plenty of room to run and cozy places for the dogs to sleep and hang out. One of our dogs is really scared of thunderstorms and Megan went above and beyond to make him comfortable during some very strong storms. Our pups have made friends for life! We will definitely be repeat customers and highly recommend Megan.

Kaitlyn was fabulous! She sent multiple pictures daily with notes on the various activities with our dog, Abby. The stay was 8 days and we were able to enjoy our vacation knowing Abby was having a great time! We will be returning to Kaitlyn to care for Abby in the future!!

Carlina was fantastic with Coco! She kept us updated throughout the stay with lots of pictures and messages, which gave us great peace of mind. Coco got along so well with Carlina's dog and seemed to have a wonderful time. Carlina gave her plenty of snuggles, treats, and attention, and it was clear that Coco was very well cared for. We could tell she was happy, comfortable, and loved while we were away. We would absolutely book with Carlina again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter! 🐾❤️

Miranda is such a great communicator! We will definitely use her again. Oakley definitely had the greatest time and she came back super tired (which is an amazing thing to give us a little break when we got back lol) we just had moved here and found it difficult to find somewhere to board her but luckily we found Miranda on here. Thank you a million times!

Laura is exactly who we have been looking for. She reassured us and asked if there was anything she could do to make us comfortable with leaving our puppy- what a relief after a having a bad experience with a different Rover Sitter. Ginny had so much fun with her dog Matilda, and came home tired. Laura was the one easy part of our bad day. We will be back!

Amanda did a great job caring for my little senior who turned out to be a more challenging pet sit than anticipated. With his dementia and strong separation anxiety since the loss of his brother, apparently he was not an ideal house guest. Amanda managed it and provided honest feedback.

Megan was amazing. We booked really last minute, and then had to extend our stay. Her communication is fantastic, and she was very thorough in asking all the right questions to make sure she had all the details about Chevy. Would absolutely recommend.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Candler

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Candler on Rover is $44.4 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 Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

There are 372 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Candler. About 93% of Candler sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

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.

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.

If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
