“Emily and William were such wonderful dog-sitters! They were proactive about scheduling a meet-up so we could make sure Louise was a good fit for their home. They responded quickly to all communications. They are very friendly and welcoming. I greatly appreciated the regular photos of Louise, which assured me that she was comfortable and at ease. Thank you, Emily and William!”
“Evie and Fritz took amazing care of my dog, Moose, while he stayed with them for a week. They were kind, caring, knowledgeable, and truly went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and happy. It was clear from the start that they genuinely love dogs, and Moose absolutely loved his time with them. I also appreciated the frequent updates, photos, and communication throughout his stay, which gave me complete peace of mind. I would highly recommend Evie and Fritz to anyone looking for trustworthy and attentive pet sitters, and I would happily book with them again!”
“Agus is extremely kind and even allowed my puppy to stay an extra night when I had an emergency. He is super flexible, easy to work with, and a very nice person! Rue always comes home so happy and tired from all the playing with Harry Potter!! Thank you so much Agus— your kindness doesn’t go unnoticed!”
“Krystene responded quickly to my request and was very pleasant. She sent me pictures of my cat baby and updated me on how he was doing. I was very thankful Krystene was available to care for my cat during a family emergency. I would definitely use Krystene again!”
“Tori and her family took such great care of our small older dog who has some health issues including med administration needs and occasional pain due to previous cancer. Everything from getting holly to their home (Tori last minute offered to pick Holly Up and this was a godsend because our trip was last minute and we were trying to coordinate many other things) to start her visit to pick up and updates in between were great. Her sons are very gentle and natural animal lovers so that was not any concern even though our dog generally prefers calm environments. I would highly recommend Tori and her family for caring for your pet!”
“Greg is very friendly and has a great personality. He’s property is very beautiful and has a large fenced area. He was very good with my dog, King as he was nervous. Greg took excellent care and sent me a photo showing how comfortable King was in his care. I will be utilizing his outstanding services again and highly recommend Greg to care for your fur baby!!!”
“Yara, Angel, and their daughter Zoe took phenomenal care of our dog Loki! Their communication was great and they sent regular updates. We can’t recommend them enough!”

“Wow Greg and Julie are amazing! I always got updates and they know so many training tricks from their background with dogs! 12/10 recommend! Plus my dog got to play with his first cat! Book them now!”
“Ashley was wonderful from start to finish — from our first chat to the meet & greet and throughout Millie’s stay. She’s incredibly responsive, accommodating, and just so easy to work with. The whole experience felt seamless and completely stress-free. During Millie’s stay, Ashley sent regular updates, photos, and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that Millie was happy, comfortable, and very well cared for. I trust Ashley with Millie so much that I’ve already booked another stay with her! I’m so grateful we found her and would happily & highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, attentive, and dependable sitter.”
“She took great care of my babies, it was a last minute booking and she was happy to take them for a long stay. One of my dogs had a bug bite that got infected and she took care of it, updated me on the healing and even offered to take him to the vet. Dogs were very happy and cared for!”
“I wish I could give Heather and John more than 5 stars! They took wonderful care of both my timid older dog and crazy puppy boarding for over a week, and sent lots of pictures and updates to calm my nerves about leaving the little guy for the first time. The dogs appeared at home and comfortable from the first day. Heather and John were also flexible about extending for a couple of extra days when weather changed our travel plans, saving the end of our trip. Highly recommend!”
“Adriana took great care of Chelsea!! She was attentive & provided plenty of photos while I was away. Chelsea loved playing with Adriana & her pup. I would definitely use her services again!”
“So happy we found Marilyn and her family to board my miniature schnauzer for 6 days. They are all love for dogs and Tita felt that instantly since it is all she needs. I was so relaxed during my vacations since I would receive daily updates and pictures. It was also fun for Tita since she even received Puppy cups. Marilyn and the kids took care of our puppy as if she was their own. As I told her, they are all love for animals, definitely very special people with a big heart. Oh since they are going to miss her, we already booked for next month for our beach getaway :)”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Chapel Hill
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!!!
Naotake took great care of Monny while we were away. He was very thoughtful, communicative, and kept us updated throughout her stay. Monny can be a picky eater and is sensitive to heat, but he paid close attention to her needs and made us feel at ease. We especially appreciated his kindness and the detailed updates. We would definitely trust him with Monny again. Highly recommend!
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!

FAQs for Boarding - Chapel Hill
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Chapel Hill on Rover is $49.95 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 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 July 2026, there are 1,881 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Chapel Hill. 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.
95% of Chapel Hill 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 Chapel Hill 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 Chapel Hill 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 Chapel Hill.
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 Chapel Hill 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.
