“Sarah stepped in to take last minute care of my foster dogs even though it was a big ask. They were comfortable, had fun, and she continued their "how to be a good dog in a new home" training, and they came back happy and relaxed! :)”
“Our dog was well taken care of. He was not stressed when I picked him up. Larissa sent progress notes and photos everyday. I will definitely be using Larissa's services in the future!”
“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!”
“Maria was so very kind and kept me updated with sending pictures of my fur baby while out of town. She accepted a very last minute stay and was super easy to communicate with!”
“Aanchal was amazing with Pistol! Pistol is afraid of everything, and Aanchal made her feel right at home. Pistol even warmed up to her husband and let him do belly rubs. I highly recommend her to anyone. She sent lots of pictures and videos. We will definitely use her again!”
“Abigail was a wonderful sitter! I appreciated that she sent pictures and updates often. She was easy to communicate with and took great care of our dog. We will definitely be using her as a sitter again.”
“Amanda was great! She kept us up to date with pictures daily and feedback as to how the stay was going. Our 2 year old lab absolutely loved it there. We will definitely be using her for all future bookings.”
“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.”
About: I am a USMC vet and I’ve been around pets basically all my life and found a passion for it. I have over 4 years with working with pets in a professional field. I currently have open availability during the week and weekend. I’m available any time during the day and any last minute requests for all pets. I have a fenced In large yard so pets are able to roam free and have plenty of play time throughout the day and stay.
“Lillie had a great time! She conked out in the car as soon as we picked her up. Brittany sent us status reports and photos, which alleviated our worries about leaving Lillie behind. Great experience.”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch my dog! She updated me daily with texts and pictures. I felt so comfortable having him there. I will for sure use KenLynn again.”
“Joseph and Destiny were very prompt at getting back to us and took great care of our fur baby. She sent lots of pictures so I knew he was being taken care of. We would definitely book again in the future.”
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 live in an apartment complex close to UCF and have one cat. I have taken care of multiple dogs as I have 4 back home (they do not live with me currently they are at my residence with my family)
About: Hello! I’m Brooke! I absolutely love dogs (& all animals really)! I have my own dog, Puck, who I love to take to the lake, on walks and cuddle with. I have been dog sitting for 10 years and I love it. I currently do travel healthcare and I’m looking for a job on the side with my boyfriend’s help too. I can do walks, home visits, overnight sitting in your home and anything else you’d need for your furry friend. I can work with you and your schedule to try to find the perfect time to help out you and your pet. I look forward to hearing from you soon! Don’t hesitate to ask any questions to see if I’m a good fit! I work full time during the week but am free most weekends. My boyfriend also helps out and is an early bird who can do drop ins before 7am and after 5 pm. I have a patio that the dogs can sun bath on and a huge h fenced yard to let the pups run around to get some energy out.
“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!”
About: I have multi-dog household experience. There has always been at least two dogs in my house growing up, they’re my favorite animals. I have a chocolate Labrador named Whiskey, and a Schnoodle named Max. My chihuahua sadly passed away. I love to meet and have other dogs in my house. I’m comfortable administering oral medication if needed. I’ll send daily photo updates. I’m a stay at home mom so there’s always time to care and play with our furry kids. I wake up between 6-8am and go to bed by 10pm. When I need to leave the house to run errands, I don’t take longer than 3 hours at a time, so I make sure my pets are taken outside for potty and water breaks. There is a fenced area in the back of our house, and a big open area. I can take them out on a leash if needed or crate them if they’re not house trained.
“Christen is an amazing person, right away my boys left comfortable with here and me too. She send me updates and pictures of my babies of how they were doing. I travel a lot, so if a ever go back to kingsland and need someone to take care of my pets, I will definitely choose her again.”

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.
