“Tina took such wonderful care of my dog, Ruby, over the weekend! From the moment we dropped her off, I felt completely at ease knowing she was in great hands. Tina was incredibly attentive and kept me updated with frequent messages and adorable photos, which meant so much while we were away. Ruby also had the best time with Tina’s dog, Charlie. They became fast friends right away, which made the whole experience even better. It’s clear Tina truly loves and cares for the dogs she watches. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter. Thank you so much, Tina, for taking such amazing care of Ruby!”

About: We were raising dogs before we had children. Siberian Huskies, Akitas, rescue dogs, and Icelandic Sheepdogs. There have been dogs in our home for over 50 years. Our pets are a part of the family and greet us each day with a licky kiss on the chin. Our grandchildren love to play with Spensa when they visit. Pet care is intentional and a part of our daily routine. With the morning coffee comes the morning run around the back yard. With my breakfast is the dogs breakfast. If we go for a walk, so does the dog! We all just do life together as we can! We have a fenced yard allowing plenty of room to run and play. Our dog is very friendly and is very comfortable being around other dogs. She is current on all vacinations. Should you required you dog to be crated for any reason, we would be more than willing to comply to your requests.
“Wonderful experience, great communication. Our quirky little Bugg had a blast and came home happy, healthy, and well exercised. It was our first time leaving him with non-family and Amber & boys put our minds at ease. Highly recommend!”
“Kenan & Kayleigh were awesome! They loved Billy and Joey (miniature dachshunds) like their own and always sent updates with pictures and videos! Their home is clean and their indoor kennels our dogs loved (along with their couch for extra snuggles). 🥰 We will 100% be using them again!”
“Mary was fantastic. She kept me updated with how my dog, Gemma, was adjusting and sent great photos that made it obvious her family was enjoying Gemma and Gemma was loving her time there as well.”
“Laura took such good care of Aka! He loved his time in her home and hanging out with her sweet dog and daughter. She communicated regularly with me and always responded to me quickly. A great boarding experience!”
“Tabitha enjoyed her slumber party with Jasper and Maggie. The Hoomans were very nice and spoiled me. Tabitha enjoyed how the house was arranged so she could interact or get some private time. The Hoomans had been trained nicely and made me feel at home. This was my first time away from Momma and Papa. I did really well. Papa, not so much. But the pictures really helped. Tabitha, Momma, and Papa send their thanks.”
“We had Hannah watch our dog for the first time, and we couldn't have been happier with the experience. She was kind, reliable, and communicative from start to finish. She kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely trust Hannah to watch our dog again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter!”
About: I was a zookeeper for 15+ years and have experience with a plethora of species. I have fostered animals of all kinds through different rescue organizations. I am a large breed person who currently has a smaller dog and cat. I spent many of my zookeeping years training animals, and have experience with strong stubborn dog breeds. I thoroughly enjoy a senior pet who will cuddle on the couch while I drink my coffee. I currently work from 9-1:30, with a spouse that works from home. My schedule allows plenty of time for morning walks and afternoon love and care. I am available for boarding most days, and dog walking, house checks in afternoons. A large portion of my yard is fenced so there is plenty of room for your dogs to stretch their legs outside of walks. I have a 30lb senior dog at home who occasionally enjoys a new companion. Otherwise my children love animals and always enjoy a new playmate, while being respectful of their boundaries. I prefer crating dogs whenever we are not home, at least until we know them and how they interact with my pets. I have crates from small to XXL so no need to bring your own.
“This was Stella’s first time boarding/away from home and Tyra made it such a smooth and great transition! We received pictures everyday and it was a great to see how much she was enjoying herself! Tyra was awesome! We will definitely be booking again!”
About: I grew up on a farm with 5 dogs. When I moved to the US, I got my own puppy (a golden retriever), and I trained her myself. I foster dogs and cats from nearby shelters. I always make sure to follow instructions for a seamless transition for your animal! I have a dog myself. When my family and I got her, I signed a contract to take care of her myself. She is now almost 8 years old, always full of joy and in great health. I love to play with dogs, and get them tired and ready to take a nap! I am ready to clean after dogs if needed (in the house and outside), and take care of them no matter their needs. I want you and your pet to feel taken care of.
The median cost per night for pet boarding in Elon is $42

Anna was awesome. First of all she was so accommodating to a change in schedule last minute. Lucy absolutely loves Anna. I received lots of photos and videos and updates on Lucy. This was her first time staying with someone so we were nervous. Anna will be my go to dog sitter from here on out!!!
Lexi did an amazing job watching Patch while I was out of state. Patch can be nervous with new people and has a fairly specific care routine, but Lexi was patient, attentive, and made her feel comfortable. She sent regular updates, photos, and a video, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She took Patch on walks, to the park, and even out for a pup cup. She also went above and beyond by buying toys and treats for Patch to enjoy during her stay. It was clear that Patch was well cared for and had a great time. Lexi was incredibly kind and thoughtful, and I would absolutely trust her to watch Patch again!
I had the pleasure of hiring Danielle to watch Harmony for the first time, and I couldn't be happier with her care. She took excellent care of Harmony, keeping her happy and comfortable. Danielle was very communicative, checking in with me throughout the stay and sending adorable pictures of Harmony. It was such a relief to know my senior dog was in good hands. I will definitely be a repeat customer and highly recommend Danielle to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.
Debbie did an amazing job with our Shih Tzu, Major!! She sent us several pictures and videos of Major and kept us updated on how he was doing throughout his stay with her. He is very kind and caring with her furry clients.🐶 We highly recommend her and are already planning to to book her again soon.
Janie and her fur babies are wonderful! Janie is so caring. Sent pictures of Brandi. I appreciate her doing that. We don’t get to travel much, but whenever we do, I will definitely check with Janie first, and hope that she will be available. Thanks to Janie and Rover! Kathy Erdman

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Elon 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 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 677 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Elon. About 93% of Elon 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.
