“Leaving our sweet boy behind has never been as comforting and low stress as it was with having Jason watch him for us. Knowing Colt was having a great time and in a loving home while we were out of town means the world to us! We came back to a safe and happy boy. We are so grateful!!”
“Marcia is very friendly and has lots of experience with all types of dogs. She treated our English bulldog very well and was accommodating to the fact that she should be kept separate from other dogs.”
“Larrisa did an amazing job with our two pups Bailey and Madeline. She did especially well with Madeline who is a senior and has mobility issues. She also had meds that she needed twice daily and soars on her feet from the way she lays. Larrisa changed and kept the bandages clean. She also trimmed both dogs nails. I will definitely use her again and highly recommend her.”
“Caitlin made me feel so safe leaving my Boston terrier for the day. She sent lots of pictures, took her on walks, and let her lay outside to get her daily sun bathing in:) couldn’t recommend someone better!”
“Klairi was great with my pup! My Callie girl got to make new puppy friends. She communicated and sent pictures while I was away to ensure that everything was good and she was having a great time. This was the first time I had ever left my pup before and I was a nervous wreck. Klairi was great and was amazing with my dog. I will definitely book again! Definitely recommend!!!”
“This was our second time leaving our dog with Aanchal and we could not be happier with the service provided. A went out of her way to make sure our dog was eating properly and did a great job of communicating with us. Already plan on leaving our dog there again!”
“Abigail and her family have been amazing with my 2 girls! She is super communicative and made sure she knew everything about the girls before the start date. The girls always come home happy and tired, and Abigail always sends pictures of all the fun they have. Highly recommend!”
“It’s a comfort for me when my dog, Zeke, is in Sandy’s care. When I’m away I can focus on what I need to do and I don’t worry about Zeke at all. I’m very grateful for Sandy’s loving care of my little dog. She’s a very wonderful and kind person.”
“Amanda was awesome! My doggy loved her and came home a happy girl. I was worried about her not eating while there with it being new but Amanda was able to get her to eat just fine :)”
“I was very nervous leaving my dog for the first time in a new place. Brittany and Matt were great with Ghost, he can be a handful with his anxiety and they were patient and understanding. They sent updates and videos of him playing with their dog King. We will definitely use them in the future if we need a sitter.”
“10/10 service! Alexander took fantastic care of my dog, Charlee! He kept me updated daily with photos and notes, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Charlee was well-cared for, happy, and in great hands. I highly recommend Alexander and would definitely book him again!”
About: I’ve taken care of multiple animals throughout my life, such as dogs, cats, lizards, snakes, ducks, and chickens. I’m very reliable and will make sure to follow directions on how you want your animal taken care of. I am currently a student and have a part time job, but I also have a lot of free time on my hands making this type of job perfect for me. I grew up around cats and dogs growing up and care deeply for animals. For animals I board I like to do a meet and greet to let your animal get to know an unfamiliar place with you there. For dog sitting I like to do a meet and greet at the house or a nearby park to get to know your pet and so that I’m not a stranger to them when hanging with them.
“Fantastic! We were provided with daily updates and a sweet surprise when we picked them up. They were extremely well taken care of. Wouldn’t hesitate to book again. Thank you!”
“I can’t say enough great things about Joseph & Destiny! I knew I’d made a great choice when I felt so confident and calm driving away after leaving Harper. I received regular pictures and updates, and it was clear that she was happy and content. She loved playing with Apollo and Milky! We will definitely use J&D the next time we travel!”
“We are very happy with Rebecca’s care for Buckeye! It was great to get photos and videos of him enjoying his time with her family (and behaving himself!!). We have already recommended Rebecca to family and friends, and we will certainly contact her again when we need a dog sitter!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Emerald Isle on Rover is $66.6 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 173 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Emerald Isle. 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.
100% of Emerald Isle 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 Emerald Isle 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 Emerald Isle 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 Emerald Isle.
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 Emerald Isle 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.
