“Paul loves our dogs and takes good care of them. Our Ridgeback is a bit anxious, but Paul made him feel right at home. Paul sent me one or two updates every day including pictures and narrated videos. He also promptly responded to my questions during my dog’s visit. I highly recommend Paul and will bring my dogs back to stay with Paul again.”
“Jill is ABSOLUTELY the BEST Doggie Mom on the planet. We were so blessed to meet her through this app and have her take care of Luna! We received pics, videos, timely updates throughout the entire experience. Luna made new friends and now has home away from home!! If you’re looking for a safe, loving, caring home, look no further! Thank you Jill for your passion for our fur-baby and making her feel secure and loved!! YOU ROCK!!!!”
“Katrin did a wonderful job taking care of our pup. Her space is perfect for taking care of pups and she clearly loves dogs. She was great about getting her plenty of walks and sent lots of pictures and videos.”
“Angel and Yara are beyond wonderful. My dog is so happy with them and he loves the whole family there. Their daughter is the sweetest little girl and my dog loves her too. I missed my dog but never worried about him while we were gone. Thank you sooo much.”
“Dan was an incredible resource for a last-minute request to keep our old girl comfortable during a house party. As the guest list grew, we knew she’d be overwhelmed, so we reached out to Dan. Dan hosted her and from the pictures he sent, she made herself comfortable at his place. It was such a relief to not worry about a party guest leaving a door open; she was safe and relaxed with Dan. What also speaks to his level of care is that when Coco came back home, she had zero anxieties or stress. It was as though she was grateful for having an afternoon to herself.”
“Cathryn was really good to Lucy! Her children loved her like their own. Great yard and very dog friendly. We learned Lucy is not good with resident cats so she won’t be back but we highly recommend for others!”
“Julia did an amazing job caring for our dog, Nova! She sent lots of pictures and was accommodating when we needed an extra day due to a delayed flight. Our dog is anxious and Julia did everything she could to make her comfortable and calm. I highly recommend Julia and would love to have her watch our dog again!”
“Bella had a wonderful week-long stay with Heather. Heather was great about having a meet & greet beforehand and was very accommodating about having our adult son pick-up Bella before we returned to town. I love that Heather only takes one client at a time, has a huge fenced yard for play and took Bella on the daily walks she's accustomed to. Many thanks for loving our girl, Heather!”
“Amy and John took great care of Ziggy. They sent photos and updates daily and it looked like Ziggy was living his best life at a 5 star retreat, making new friends and keeping busy.”
“Luis took great care of our 12 year old lab during a recent trip! Communication was great, he sent updates and pictures, and was even kind enough to bring her back home for us since our flight got in late. Highly recommend and we will absolutely have him watch Paige again!”
“Quinn had a fantastic time staying with JB and his family!! JB was caring and attentive to Quinn, and put all of our fears to rest with his calm and friendly manner. We received helpful updates and pictures several times during the day, which we truly appreciated. Highly recommend this sitter!! We will be back!! THANK YOU JB and Summer!!”
“R.J. And Julie are wonderful pet sitters! I trust them completely with my dog. They are responsible, respectful, and prompt with messages n pictures. I highly recommend their services.”
“Knowing someone will love your fur baby as much as you do is a huge relief when you have to be far away. Daily pics and updates were great and just what I needed. My fur baby returned happy, healthy, and tired from having so much fun. Thank you Anitra!”
“Becky was amazing with Lele! Becky sent me photos every day, communicated clearly, and always replied quickly. I felt completely at ease knowing Lele was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”
“Paris did a wonderful job watching my Senior dachshund for a week. It was my pet’s first time staying with someone who she didn’t know. I was really nervous about leaving her but my pet did great. Paris sent pictures and messages every day about what had happened during that day. My pet seemed to settle in well and had a great stay. I definitely will contact Paris again if I need to board my little Doxie again.”
“Ashleigh and Jason were amazing! My sweet Izzy was taken into their home like a member of their own family. It was her first stay with them and they made me feel at ease providing updates and sending pictures regularly. When I picked her up I could tell immediately that she was happy and so well loved and taken care of while I was away. Highly recommend Ashleigh and Jason, Izzy will be back with them in July for our next vacation!”
“It is clear that Denise genuinely enjoyed taking care of our dogs, Apollo and Luna, and that they connected with her and feel very comfortable staying at her home. Denise and her husband are both lovely people and I will happily leave Apollo and Luna in their care during future travels.”

Veronica has been an exceptional dog sitter for our sweet dog Pallino. She sent us daily updates and proved to be attentive to his needs of nice daily walks as well as snuggles... Our dog also had a minor health issue, which Veronica addressed quickly and thoroughly, including her communication with us. During our vacation we felt at ease knowing that Veronica was with our dog throughout the day and he was always well taken care of. We also had a flight cancellation and asked her for a very last minute extension, which she graciously agreed. Thanks Veronica for being such a caring and responsible sitter for our dog!
Remi was very comfortable at Megan”s house. She met Megan’s dogs at the meet and greet and got along great with all of them. Megan was great with communicating and you can tell that she has a real love for and understanding of animals. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to leave Remi. It was totally worth the 30 min drive for drop off and pick up!!
Agus was a life saver. Not only was he very caring with my dog, but a family member had an emergency while we were out of town and Agus graciously picked up her dog, took care of her for several days, and returned her to her owner, all on a moment's notice. So grateful!!!
Ashleigh and Jason were amazing! My sweet Izzy was taken into their home like a member of their own family. It was her first stay with them and they made me feel at ease providing updates and sending pictures regularly. When I picked her up I could tell immediately that she was happy and so well loved and taken care of while I was away. Highly recommend Ashleigh and Jason, Izzy will be back with them in July for our next vacation!
Gregg has been our favorite pet sitter during our time in NC. He is very professional, and his house has a beautiful and big fenced yard in a quiet area. We reliably received happy and fun pictures of Molly while we were away and that gave us peace of mind. I can’t recommend Gregg enough!
Emily and Lamar were amazing! They took great care of our little guy and he has an absolute blast. They kept us informed and updated the entire stay with pictures and messages. We really appreciate them and can’t wait to book with them in the future. Would highly recommend to anyone!
Molly and Henry and their dog Hank were wonderful hosts for our dog Lucy. They welcomed her into their home, took her for walks, and gave her lots of love. Lucy had plenty of human and canine company over the week. Molly was super responsive and sent plenty of updates and photos. We wouldn't hesitate to book them again next time we travel. Thank you!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Carrboro on Rover is $43.29 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 1,912 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Carrboro. About 93% of Carrboro 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.
