“Debra was a fantastic sitter for my dog, Basil! She sent pics of Basil having fun in the backyard and playing on the splash pad every single day during her stay. I recommend Debra to anyone looking for someone to care for their dog!”
“Kimberly took great care of our pups. She kept in touch with daily updates and really took extra steps to make sure they were happy and healthy. They normally get eggs in the morning and she had no problem cooking these for them so they could keep to their routine. She also noted Henry scratching and realized his seasonal dry ear problem was acting up. She took care of the ears, which is not easy with Henry, who can be very grumpy when he is being doctored. I highly recommend Kimberly and my pups will definately stay with here again.”
“Shannon provided exceptional care, affection, and understanding to my rescue Beagle, Milo. This marked our first separation in the two and a half years he has been a member of our family. I initially experienced considerable apprehension regarding the prospect of leaving Milo; however, upon meeting Shannon, I was immediately confident that he would receive outstanding attention. Shannon consistently provided photographs and updates on Milo's well-being. Upon my return to retrieve Milo, he demonstrably expressed his affection for Shannon and her mother through repeated embraces prior to his departure. Witnessing the bond that had developed in merely two days was both heartwarming and profoundly reassuring.”
“Our dog, Cleo, spent 5 days and nights with Ilana and family and seems to have had a great time. She was able to maintain her usual habits (sleeping in bed with humans :-), lounging on furniture as she pleases, and sharing treats and food with anyone nearby) with an added bonus of a walk or two a day plus daily dog park visits! Who could ask for anything more! We received updates several times a day with pics and notes, and Ilana responded immediately any time i contacted her before or during. Ilana, her husband and dog seem to care very much about dogs and making guests' stays as fun and comfortable as possible! Happy to have found Ilana !”
“Christy was amazing! Her home is welcoming and set up for pups. She had a couple other dogs when I took Kelso, and she was great with identifying the personalities and handling their needs. I have an older dog and she went out of her way and put mats down on the hardwood floors when his legs were tired. She kept me informed with messages and pictures the entire visit. It was an exceptional experience for the Kelso and me!”
“Amy was great with our dog, Charlie. He suffers from separation anxiety which seems to be getting worse. He wasn't doing well at all in the hotel room so we decided to try a sitter. He was restless his first day, but that was to be expected. By day 2 he was having a great time with her pups! She saved our vacation and Charlie got to have play dates. Win win! Thanks again Amy!”
“Laura took great care of our high energy pup! He got along well with her pet and got in some great walks too. Great communication as well. We hope to use them again in the future. 5 stars!!”
“Janet took such great care of Maverick while we were on vacation. It was my first time leaving him with someone but she made it a great experience by sending updates and pictures of him through out his stay. We will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Janice took such great care of our baby while we were on vacation. She has her own dog which worked well because her dog kept our Gracie company and was a great play companion. We will definitely use Janice in the future when we go on vacation again.”
“Lorie was great with the dogs she sent pictures and they enjoyed there stay. It was the first time with Lorie and working with Rover and we would do it again. Great experience Lorie you are the best. See you in April”
“Craig has cared for my standard poodle Amelia a few times now, most recently this June. She always comes home happy. He takes excellent care of her and I will always request him when I need to leave her when I travel. He communicates how she is doing, sends the most wonderful pictures of her on a regular basis. He is a gem. I am grateful that I found him.”
“Jorie is wonderful! We have used her services multiple times and couldn’t be happier! You can really tell she loves dogs. She is excellent at providing text and picture updates to give you peace of mind while you are away on a trip. Finley had a great time visiting and playing with her pup Bailey. This last time he was so excited to visit he was pulling on the leash to get inside Jorie’s house. I think that shows you that Finley loves it there. (I can tell you that he sure doesn’t do that when we go to the groomer… lol). I Definitely recommend Jorie to care for your furry family member.”
“Stevie had such a a good time with Kelly. She sent us pictures every day, took Stevie for long walks, gave him his antibiotics and made sure he's entertained. Kelly is very good about communicating and answering questions. I highly recommend Kelly!”
“This was our first time using Rover or a dog sitter. We were a little nervous, but Judy was great with our two dogs. She sent me pictures and answered my texts immediately. Would definitely recommend!!”
About: I have cared for dogs, cats, horses and other farm animals. I have rescued multiple dogs and provide a loving home. I have had two lab puppies, one in which I have now. I grew up riding horses and spending my days at a barn caring for animals. I’m a special education teacher now who is looking for extra work when on breaks. I’m a special education teacher and a mom.

I can also feed, water and provide play time. I have a fenced in yard with a doggie door in my home. My dogs are free around my house. I can also go to your home.
“Lisa was amazing with our Teddy. He loved her right away and we did love her too. Our Teddy is a senior dog and needed a loving and caring person to take care of him while we were away. She was very professional and flexible with pick up and drop off. We definitely recommend her as the perfect dog sitter! We’ll call her again soon!”

Atina was amazing! Aspyn, our 15w/o Mini Aussie is a ball of energy and needs lots of attention, so I had several questions and requests before booking. Atina delivered perfectly! I loved that Aspyn received one-on-one attention, playtime, daily walks, and socialization with her senior dogs while still sticking to her normal routine as much as possible. She accommodated everything I needed, and offered more, which I appreciated so much. From the moment I arrived and saw the setup she created for her “clients”, it was obvious she has truly found her calling and goes above and beyond for every fur baby in her care. The regular pictures and updates made being away so much easier. Aspyn will continue to go on vacation with us, but stay 15 minutes away with Atina. I highly recommend Atina for dogs of any age! Everyone needs a little Atina in their life!💜🐶✌🏼
My cat had a wonderful time, there for over a week due to a funeral out of state. Lovely place to stay, lots to look at from the back screened porch, any cat would have lots to do. Grateful she could take her for a longer trip, not many places will take cats. Brought all of her many things like scratch box so she could get her energy out on that rather than inappropriate areas. Would book again in a heartbeat.
Jeanne was a fantastic sitter for our gentle giant! Great communication, smooth drop off at her place and convenient delivery to our beach rental after daycare. I would 100% recommend to anyone vacationing and looking for a reliable dog sitter/board/etc! We only needed a single daytime daycare while waiting for our check in later in the afternoon. Jeanne taking care of our dog let us enjoy the beach with the kids while we waited. Will definitely work with her again! We come every summer and it’s so nice to know someone in the area.

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Carolina Shores on Rover is $40.13 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 228 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Carolina Shores. About 95% of Carolina Shores 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.
