“Anamika always takes such wonderful care of our little Rocky. She always goes out of her way to make sure to send us pictures and updates every day. He is well taken care of and has fun playtime with other well behaved dogs. I highly recommend!”
“Lauren was absolutely amazing per usual! She was very accommodating when my plane was delayed 3 times and was late to pick up my dogs. I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Krystal and her family were Wonderful. She took care of our dog during the time that Charlotte had record snowfall and cold weather. A path was cleared for our dog so he could go out in the snow. We came home to a happy and healthy sweet dog.”
“Leslie was great with my senior dog Benji. She was very caring and engaged with my dog, and communicative with me. I trust my pet in her care and will use her as a sitter again. Thank you Leslie!”
“Arya is awesome - highly recommend! She was very active and loving with our goldendoodle. She also was very communicative with pictures and letting us know how he was doing throughout the week. Definitely would book her again!”
“Sandra took amazing care of our two dogs! With one immune compromised pup she made sure he got all of his meds on schedule. We loved the photos and updates. And when our flight was delayed she was very accommodating and pleasant! Will definitely book again the next time we travel. 😊”
“Really great! We just moved to the area and after using the same rover sitter for years so naturally we were scared to leave our pup with someone new. Marion was super kind and we’re so relieved to have found Chief’s new sitter! Thank you Marion!”
“Megan and her family took such amazing care of Scout. She went on so many little adventures and came home healthy, happy, and clearly loved. Megan sent daily updates with pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. She even threw Scout a birthday party while I was away, complete with a cake and a homemade crown her daughter made since I couldn’t be there to celebrate. I felt so relieved knowing Scout was in such good hands, and I will absolutely be booking with Megan again.”
“Mark was super accommodating. I was nervous for my puppy to go to a new environment and Mark was able to meet my puppy before confirming booking. He was attentive and kept me up to date with photos. Charlie definitely has a forever sitter with Mark!”
“Brent was a great puppy sitter and host for our dog Finn! He had plenty of apace and kept a good awareness of the dogs staying at his house. We are very grateful for his kind dog sitting.”
“Maggie Mae and Daisy had wonderful stay at Carol's house. Carol was great at giving updates throughout their stay. I could not ask for a better person and place for my dogs to stay when I was out of town for a week. Carol is a very warm and caring person. Daisy is a rescue dog and very shy. Carol took the time to comfort her and made her feel at home. Her home is clean and dog friendly. The dogs have free run in the house, access to the large gated back yard for play, exercise and potty breaks. At night she also allowed my dogs to sleep with her in bed or in their own bed. Carol provided a warm at home safe atmosphere.”
About: Hi! My name is Svitlana, and I truly love dogs. I have experience caring for my own friendly Labrador, so I'm comfortable with large, energetic dogs as well as smaller breeds. I understand that every dog has a different personality, and I always take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and happy. I am reliable, patient, and attentive to details. During every walk, I focus on your dog's safety and well-being. I'll treat your pet like my own and send photo updates after each visit so you always know how they're doing. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend! I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending time with dogs. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening walks, including weekends when needed. I always arrive on time and make sure every walk is safe, fun, and tailored to your dog’s needs. Your dog’s safety is my top priority. I always follow your instructions carefully, keep dogs on leash unless you request otherwise in a secure area, provide fresh water after walks, and pay close attention to their comfort and behavior. I’ll send photo updates after every visit so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for.
“Christina was amazing. She went above and beyond and even gave our dog some medicine because he was itching. She truly cared for my dog while my family was away and it gave us the peace of mind to enjoy Christmas with family. I would use her again and again and again!”
“We absolutely love Amber, and so do our dogs! We’ve boarded with her several times, and every experience has been wonderful. She is incredibly attentive, caring, and goes above and beyond to make sure our dogs are comfortable and happy. We especially appreciate the extra care and attention she gives to our senior dog. It gives us such peace of mind knowing they’re in such loving hands. We highly recommend Amber to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pets!”
About: Caring for children has been my career for over 15 years. Working in education, I know that trust isn't given, its earned through consistency, communication and genuine care. While my professional background is with children, the same qualities I bring to families everyday are exactly what I'll bring to your dog: patience, attention to detail and a calm caring presence. My goal is simple: for you to come home to a happy dog and have complete peace of mind knowing they were treated like one of my own. My schedule offers flexibility, which allows me to fit pet care into my week while giving each dog the attention they deserve. Some days I’m available earlier than others, and weekends are generally more open. I believe pets thrive on consistency, so I’ll always be upfront about my availability and make sure I can fully commit before accepting a booking. When your dog is in my care, they’ll have my full attention, plenty of affection, and dependable care every step of the way. I know that trusting someone with your dog is a big decision, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. Whether your dog is staying in my home or joining me for a walk, their safety, comfort, and happiness will always come first. I’ll follow your care instructions closely, keep routines as consistent as possible, and provide plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. You’ll receive regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pup is in caring, dependable hands. My goal is to create a calm, welcoming environment where your dog feels loved, secure, and right at home. No other pets in the home. Non-smoking home. Plenty of space for walks and play. Only one family’s dog(s) at a time

I could not be happier to have found Joseph and Christine! They took such good care of my baby! They sent numerous pictures throughout the day (good quality ones by the way lol)! They made my baby feel at home! I am so grateful for them and for the excellent care they gave my sweet Lily💕 I will 100% be coming back any time I have to travel.
We are so grateful to have found Brianna, especially on fairly short notice! From the start, she was incredibly responsive, easy to communicate with, and quick to arrange a meet-and-greet, which gave us great peace of mind. Brianna and her husband took such thoughtful, attentive care of Parker. It was clear they truly cared about her comfort and happiness. Her sweet little dogs were a wonderful bonus - Parker absolutely loves being around smaller dogs and had the best time with them! We especially appreciated how attentive Brianna was to Parker’s special needs. She gets anxious during thunderstorms and just needs lots of cuddles, and Brianna was more than happy to give her the extra comfort and reassurance she needed. Overall, Brianna went above and beyond, and we couldn’t be more appreciative of the care she provided. We will absolutely be booking with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and thoughtful dog sitter
Dawn took wonderful care of our puppy, Emi, and made our first Rover experience a great one. She was caring, attentive, and kept us updated throughout Emi’s stay with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear that Emi was well looked after and comfortable in her care. We truly appreciated Dawn’s communication and the genuine attention she gave to our puppy. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter.
Lentil had such a great week with Katie and her family. This was Lentil’s first extended stay away, so we were nervous, but Katie made us feel so comfortable. She was flexible with timing, incredibly accommodating and communicative, and sent us pictures everyday. Peace of mind about your pet when you’re traveling is so valuable, and Katie delivered that for us. We cannot recommend her enough!
Lisa was amazing with our boy. Maverick had the absolute best time with her dogs and i don’t think wanted to leave when we came to get him! She was flexible to set up a meet and greet on such short notice and work with our pick up and drop off times. We will definitely be going to Lisa first if we ever need dog sitting again.
Logan and Jessica are such caring and kind people. They took great care of Scotti, taking her on long walks and welcoming her into their home. Scotti is shy but from the pictures shared and picking her up, it was obvious she was comfortable and having a great time. You can tell that they not only provide the necessary care for your animal, but they genuinely love to have them in their home. I’m excited to have a reliable dog sitter in the area that I will look to first for future dog care needs. Highly recommend

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Cornelius on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of August 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 2,420 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Cornelius. About 92% of Cornelius 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.
