“Martine and Ron were an answer to my prayers! Cello, my 11 year old dachshund, stayed for 7 days. I received regular updates that put my mind at ease. Martine patiently answered my questions leading up to and during Cello's stay. They followed all instructions and even kept Cello on his eating/sleeping schedule. I highly recommend Martine and Ron! 😊”
“Savannah was so happy at Diana & Jesse’s house. We greatly appreciated receiving pictures of our old lady every day and when we came back home Savannah was clearly missing her new two- and four-legged friends. We would recommend Diana and Jesse to our friends and family without any hesitation.”
“Carol is awesome! Clean dog-friendly safe home. My pups were immediately comfortable with her. She was a great host, awesome communication. We will be back. Highly recommmend!”

“Amanda is absolutely great! She took great care of Hope, spending quality time with her and engaging in fun, playful activities that truly brightened her day. Amanda even went the extra mile by sending thoughtful pictures, which was such a delightful touch and reassured us that Hope was in great hands. Her reliability and friendly nature made the entire experience stress-free and enjoyable. Amanda clearly has a genuine love for what she does, and we couldn’t be more grateful for her care and attention. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate!”
“Yamy & Alfonso the absolute best pet sitters! My precious Leo was super happy, loved, cared for daily. Communication was beyond excellent and I felt super happy and relieved on my trip. Since I knew my baby Leo was in great hands. Thank you so much for everything ❤️”
“I can't say enough good things about Luis! He took amazing care of my dog while I was away. My pup usually gets a little anxious when I'm gone, but with Luis, he was calm and happy the whole time. Luis sent regular updates and pictures, which gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was in great hands. He truly goes above and beyond to ensure that pets are comfortable and well taken care of. I highly recommend Luis to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dog sitter!”
“Jerry creates a great environment for my pups to interact and accommodates their very different energy levels. His own pups are also so well raised and get along well with my own pups. Jerry also updates me throughout the stay with pictures. I feel peace of mind knowing they will be well cared for when they’re with Jerry.”
“First, let me say, if you head to Sarah's late in the day... don't go hungry. At drop off and pick up, I wanted to pull up a chair to her dinner table. House smelled like she could be on a cooking show! Now--on to the sitting. My puppy has high energy and has never been away from me, so I was nervous. She sent frequent updates and videos of Athena playing with her new bestie. Her pitbull had so much patience with my rambunctious pomsky. I would recommend Sarah to anyone. My little girl is tuckered out and sleeping soundly. I know she will miss Lainey for sure.”
“Karisa is the BEST!! She was so flexible with her schedule, which made this so easy. She has great communication and will send pictures and videos. She’s so sweet and caring. She and her family are the best! Highly recommend!!!”
“Lori was absolutely awesome! We left our dog Jack with her for the first time for 14 days and he did great! He came back to us happy and healthy! Lori sent us pictures and updates every day. She followed all our directions and kept him comfortable and safe. We definitely recommend her for any of your dog sitting needs! Thank you Lori!”
“Mary took such amazing care of our pup Rocky while we were on vacation—she kept us consistently updated with sweet photos and messages, which gave us total peace of mind. She made sure he got plenty of walks and even let him run wild in her backyard, which he absolutely loved!”
“Amanda was great with Albert! He seemed really comfortable and secure. He’s a shy guy so I was happy to see that he opened up so quickly. I would love to book with them again.”
“Renee was so awesome and helpful in watching our pup Migo on a last minute short notice. She was very responsive, available to meet and even flexible with my schedule, and sent us pictures and updates of our dog throughout the stay. He seemed to have a great time with her and we hope that he can stay with her again in the future!”
“We love Joanne! She is wonderful with dogs. Her home is warm and inviting and the yard is a doggie oasis. Jasper loved his stay. Joanne provided daily updates and pictures. We will certainly utilize her services again.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Garner
Parris is fantastic! This was my first time using a pet sitter for my new puppy, and she exceeded all expectations. She was incredibly organized, very communicative, and sent a good bit of picture updates. She also had no problem administering my dog's medication. My puppy had a great time!
Luna and I had amazing vacations. I loved that Alexandria sent pictires and videos of Luna’s time at het home. Luna made new friends and found a new bestie. I was apprehensive about sending Luna away to someone’s home, but knew I didn’t want her to go to a typical boarding facility. I’m so happy that Alexandria popped up in our search. Luna had the best time (I can tell by the photos and her exhaustion when we got home). I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that she was well cared for. 10/10 Recommend 🤩
Tammy was absolutely wonderful with our puppy. She was caring, communicative, and so easy to work with. I especially appreciated her flexibility when our flight was delayed and she was willing to meet us late for pickup. That meant so much after a long and stressful travel day. I felt completely at ease knowing our 7 month old chihuahua was in such good hands, and I would absolutely book with her again!
Hector was great! He watched our dog very last minute when we had to go out of town. He was very responsive and spent pictures of our dog. I could tell our dog was comfortable with him and even struggled to leave a little bit at the end! He even administered medicines to our dog that has bad anxiety. Definitely would book again. Thank you!
Daisy had a great time with Nikki and Bear! Nikki communicated with us while we were away and made sure Daisy had lots of opportunities to play. She's very friendly and helps to make your dog feel welcome in her home. We would definitely utilize Nikki's services again for Daisy!
This is the second time Ane has watched our dog, Charlie, and we honestly wouldn’t trust anyone else. Charlie absolutely loves her, and it’s clear that he feels safe and comfortable in her care. We always have peace of mind knowing he’s in such good hands. Ane also sends regular updates, photos, and videos, which we truly appreciate. It makes being away from Charlie so much easier. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy dog sitter!
George took such great care of our dog, Lola, during a 3 week boarding stay. This was the longest we’ve ever been away from her, so we were nervous at first, but George made us feel at ease from day one. He consistently sent thoughtful updates with lots of photos and videos, along with detailed messages that helped us feel connected to Lola while we were away. He was proactive about asking questions instead of making assumptions, which showed how much he genuinely cared about doing things the right way. When an unexpected situation arose, George handled it with incredible calm, responsibility, and professionalism. He was proactive and immediately kept us informed every step of the way, followed our vet’s care instructions carefully, rearranged his evening, stayed up late to make sure Lola was comfortable, and truly went above and beyond to care for her. We couldn’t have asked for someone more attentive or dedicated during a stressful situation. It’s clear that George genuinely loves the dogs he cares for and treats them like his own. We are so grateful for the time, effort, and compassion he showed Lola, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again. We highly recommend George to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, communicative, and truly invested in their pet’s wellbeing.

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Garner on Rover is $42.8 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 2,020 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Garner. About 93% of Garner 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.

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.
