“Such excellent care for our dog Grayson! I knew immediately that he was being well taken care of with their great communication through pictures and videos.

“Zainab is awesome. Our Macy is a recent rescue and she was very timid. Zainab understands her needs and gives her all the attention and assurance she needs while we are away. She keeps us updated on how Macy is doing and was very patient with Macy. We will definitely book Macy with Zainab again when needed. Thank you Zainab, we really appreciate it!”

“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.

“Our experience with Ashley&family taking care of Bruno, was absolutely fantastic! We couldn't have asked for a better sitter. From the moment Bruno arrived, we felt completely at ease. She was truly amazing with him, treating him like her own. He was clearly given tons of love, attention, and exercise during his stay. When we picked him up, he was happy, healthy, and full of great energy, which is the best sign a dog owner can ask for! Finally, we have to emphasize her extreme flexibility regarding our check-out time. Our travel plans had an unexpected delay, and Ashley was incredibly accommodating and understanding, making a potentially stressful situation completely stress-free for us. We are so grateful for her willingness to work with our schedule. We highly recommend her and will definitely be booking her for Bruno again!”
“Dyvonne was a life saver - accepting my last minute booking when another Rover unexpectedly fell through. I was in danger of missing my flight and she responded to me immediately. She cared for my two dogs, Lincoln and Ellie, taking them on walks and sending me daily pictures and updates. I could tell that they were happy and both felt right at home at Dyvonne's getting lots of pets, snuggles and exercise. If you want high quality care and daily communication, don't hesitate to book!”
“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!!”

Chelsie is super amazing and took the best and greatest care for our little one! She is very passionate about the care and time she spends with our pet. We could not have asked for a better person to help watch Isabel while she was recovering from her procedure. Thank you so much Chelsie!
Diana and Jesse did an amazing job watching my anxious rescue dog. They even watched her during thunderstorms (a stressful event for my dog) and she did not carry any anxiety forward from the storm! I could not be more pleased with how well they took care of June Bug! :)
I had a great experience with Michelle! I could tell Mojo was very happy and comfortable. I really appreciated all the pictures and updates throughout the stay, and the communication was excellent. It gave me peace of mind knowing Mojo was in such good hands. I would definitely recommend them and would happily book again!
Zainab is awesome. Our Macy is a recent rescue and she was very timid. Zainab understands her needs and gives her all the attention and assurance she needs while we are away. She keeps us updated on how Macy is doing and was very patient with Macy. We will definitely book Macy with Zainab again when needed. Thank you Zainab, we really appreciate it!
Claire took wonderful care of Leo while we were away. He came home happy, tired, and totally himself — no stress at all. We got regular photo updates that made it easy to relax and enjoy our trip. Her place is clean, safe, and clearly set up for dogs. Would absolutely book again and recommend her to anyone looking for boarding!
She was absolutely amazing I was really scared to leave my baby but she took videos and pictures and didn’t make me feel crazy for how many updates I wanted. Mocha had such a good time and it really made me feel so at ease that they loved her the same way that I do

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Cary on Rover is $42.18 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 2,013 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Cary. 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 Cary 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 Cary 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 Cary 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 Cary.
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 Cary 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.
