“Absolutely wonderful experience with Kordula and her family! She was very flexible with our changing travel plans due to weather and sent daily photos and updates. Thank you!”
“My wife and I were very nervous to have someone watch our pups while we were on our trip, and I am so happy that I found Stephanie. Stephanie was great! She gave us updates everyday with photos, and the dogs were comfortable with her family. Would definitely recommend!”
“We feel incredibly lucky to have found Ashley & PJ. From the very beginning, they were thoughtful, communicative, and genuinely caring toward Cooper. During uncertain winter road conditions, they were proactive, reassuring, and put safety first without hesitation. Cooper was clearly loved and comfortable, so much so that he came home already hinting at another visit! 😊 It means everything to know your dog is not just looked after, but truly cared for. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone kind, dependable, and wonderful with dogs.”
“She was an amazing dog sitter. She kept Sheba for 3 days and kept us informed the entire time. She let us know right away if anything was off and truly cared about Sheba’s wellbeing. She was also very kind and professional when we met. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her.”
“I could not have asked for a better first time experience with Rover! Joanne is a dream sitter! She is sweet and friendly, which was super comforting to me when I met her for the meet and greet. Her home and backyard are amazing...and all about the dogs! You can tell she is a wonderful dog mom to her own two pooches. She took amazing care of my Lucy who is special needs, made sure she got lots of exercise and ear scratches! She even texted me daily with updates and photos about Lucy's stay. I am definitely recommending Joanne to all my friends and family and will for sure use her in the future. Thank you, Joanne and Rover! Love, Jana & Lucy”
“Yaryna and her family took such great care of my dog, Sky, while I was at a wedding. I could tell Sky had such a good time when I picked him up. Sky’s already looking forward to the next time he can stay there!”
“Diego was wonderful watching our dog while we were out of town. He shared photos and videos, and ensured she got lots of fun and playtime. Would definitely consider having Diego dog sit again!”
“Carol was fantastic with our Roxy. She treated her as if she was her own dog. It is not easy leaving a member of the family with a stranger, but after meeting Carol I felt like our Roxy would be in good hands. I highly recommend Carol.”
“Amber was AMAZING! She was incredibly responsive, kind, and took the absolute best care of Ms. Lola. She provided multiple updates, and we never had to worry about Lola while we were out of town. I would 100% book with her again, she and her dog Charlie are the best!”
“Over all great! Took great care of my dog and updated me on her well being throughout the whole night! Even made her a scarf which was also so sweet! 10/10 recommend!!!!!!!”
“Alison was amazing with Toby, he came home just as happy as when he left! I would leave him with her again in a heartbeat and am already planning on using her for our next trip.”
About: I had 2 miniature dachshunds growing up. I have watched my friends 2 German Shepherds for 7years now. My boyfriend owned a German Shepherd and used to foster dogs. We now own an Australian Shepherd. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets attention throughout the day. I’m available for regular walks, playtime, feedings, potty breaks, and cuddles, and I can easily adjust my routine to meet your pet’s needs. I live in a pet-friendly apartment community with an on-site dog park and nearby trails leading to Sugg Farm and Bass Lake, perfect for walks and outdoor adventures. I have a friendly, loving, and playful Australian Shepherd, so I understand the importance of exercise, attention, and enrichment. I’ll prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort, follow their usual routines, and make sure they receive plenty of love and care while you’re away!
“Tiffany was wonderful with our dog Chief! She was flexible on drop off and pickup and very communicative all around. It was our first time using her as a sitter and we will definitely continue. Chief had a great time and came home happy, tired, and healthy!”
“Dean did a fantastic job boarding our 6 month old Boxer puppy. It was our first time leaving him anywhere for an extended period of time, and Dean was great about providing daily updates and pictures. We will definitely be repeat clients!”
“Daria did an amazing job taking care of my dog! Lots of pictures and updates and I could tell she really enjoyed having him and he was well taken care of 😊. He'll definitely be excited to go back!”
“Sharon was great with my sweet Marbles. This was his first overnight stay with her. I felt completely comfortable leaving him with Sharon and her 2 adorable dogs after our meet and greet and a day care session to get familiar with each other. When I picked Marbles up after 3 days he seemed very happy. I know I made the right choice trusting Sharon with our fur baby. Thanks Sharon.”
“Michelle and Jose were absolutely amazing with Delilah! They accepted our booking last minute, which was such a huge relief, and from the moment we dropped her off, I knew she was in great hands. They have so much experience with dachshunds, and it really showed. They understood Delilah’s personality and needs, which made me feel so much more comfortable leaving her for the weekend. Throughout her stay, they kept me updated with messages and pictures, so I never had to wonder how she was doing. If you’re looking for sitters who are knowledgeable, accommodating, and genuinely care about your dog, I can’t recommend Michelle and Jose enough! We will definitely be booking with them again!”
“Jemma and her family were wonderful with my pup! Petey stayed at their place for 4 nights while I was away on a business trip. Jemma sent pictures and descriptions that put my mind at ease - I knew that Petey was having a blast! He went on lots of neighborhood walks and even to a dog park! He was allowed to relax on the couch with the family and it looks like he got lots of cuddles from the kids 😀 I would highly recommend Jemma and will definitely reach out to her the next time I'm out of town without Petey! 🐕”
“My family and I were preparing to head out of town for my birthday when we realized, in the middle of all the planning, that we had forgotten to schedule a sitter for Oakley. Like any dog mom would, I immediately went to Rover and was pleasantly surprised to see several sitters available. I reached out to a few profiles, and Rebecca D. responded right away, which immediately gave me peace of mind. Rebecca was incredibly kind, responsive, and easy to communicate with. We quickly coordinated a plan for dropping Oakley off, and the process was seamless. When we arrived, Rebecca was already outside waiting for us and gave clear instructions on where to park. She even invited us inside, which we politely declined, but I thought it was such a thoughtful gesture. Prior to our arrival, she also shared information about her dog’s temperament, which I really appreciated. Throughout the weekend, Rebecca kept us updated with photos and videos of Oakley, which made us feel so comfortable while we were away. When we picked him up, he was excited to see us, but it was also obvious that he had a wonderful time with her. Oakley came home happy, and we are so thankful for the care Rebecca provided. I would absolutely recommend booking with her!”

Amber was AMAZING! She was incredibly responsive, kind, and took the absolute best care of Ms. Lola. She provided multiple updates, and we never had to worry about Lola while we were out of town. I would 100% book with her again, she and her dog Charlie are the best!
I left my 1½-year-old Boxer with Dean for six days while traveling internationally, and I couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter! From the very beginning, Dean was great about communicating and keeping me updated on how my boy was doing. Most importantly, he gave me peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands while I was so far away. My Boxer is still very much in his puppy stage and has a LOT of energy! When I saw Dean's backyard during our meet and greet, I knew I had found the perfect place for him. His yard is AMAZING, with plenty of room to run around and burn off all that puppy energy. He even learned how to use the doggie door! Needless to say, he came home completely exhausted, which tells me he had the time of his life! I jokingly told Dean that I was almost reluctant to leave a review because I didn't want to let everyone in on my little secret! Once people discover what a wonderful dog sitter he is, I'm sure his calendar will fill up quickly! For anyone who gets nervous about leaving their dog behind, especially when traveling far from home, I can't recommend Dean enough. There's nothing better than knowing your four-legged family member is happy, safe, and well cared for while you're away. Thank you, Dean, for taking such great care of my boy! We'll definitely be back! If I could give Dean more than 10 stars, I absolutely would!
We recently moved to the area and didn’t know anyone, so finding someone we felt comfortable leaving our pet with was really important to us. After reading Kristen's description, I reached out, and we couldn’t have had a more positive experience. She was so kind, sweet, and caring, and she kept us updated by sending pictures throughout the stay. Those little updates really helped me relax and feel confident that our pet was in good hands. We’re so happy we found her and have already booked another stay! Highly recommend!
Robin was great with Delvis while we were away for 10 days. We’ve used her before and were happy she was available again, even though we live a bit farther away now. She kept us updated throughout the stay with messages and photos, which we really appreciated. Delvis was well cared for, and it was nice knowing he was with someone we already knew and trusted. Would happily book with Robin again!
Carol was a great communicator and treated my dog so well. My dog was comfortable and happy in her stay 🥰 even upon pick up my pup kept playing with toys in the home instead of running out the door to leave with me. It’s great to know somebody is home almost all day with her and she is loved!
Amanda did a wonderful job taking care of our dog! We got regular updates and photos, and Amanda and her family gave our pup lots of attention, walks, and cuddles. It was a relief to know she was getting such good care while we were away, and I would happily leave my dog with her again in the future!
Emily is absolutely wonderful!! From the very beginning she was very responsive, asked great questions regarding our pets’ routine, and made us feel very comfortable about leaving him in her hands. During our time away, she provided updates at least twice a day (with pictures which was SO nice). She took him on walks and updated us on his eating and what he did each day. Could not recommend Emily more! Thanks Emily!
As always, our pups loved their vacation with Lisa and Harry. Instead of hiding when they see us packing suitcases, our pups dance when they hear, “Do you want to stay with Lisa and Harry?” They love it there, and we don’t worry about them at all during our vacation.
They are excellent !!! Very loving and caring for our pets pets are for babies. Especially dealing with our hyper eccentric puppy Cooper lol. He even seems much calmer when he came home .They took excellent care and pictures and videos constant updates and always communicated with us. We are so thankful to have had them to care for our pets and such a great experience. We will definitely be using them again in the future.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Fuquay-Varina is $42 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $56 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 2,035 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Fuquay-Varina. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in Fuquay-Varina can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Fuquay-Varina home-away-from-home, 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 Fuquay-Varina.
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 Fuquay-Varina 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 , 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 .
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.
