“Diane stood out to me because of her wonderful reviews and the fact that she had multiple repeat family's that trusted her with their dogs. This was the first time anyone would be taking care of a dog of mine outside of family or friends so I was worried to find the right person and unsure about a stranger taking care of my "child" but when I met Diane I felt so comfortable that my Phoebe was in safe hands and that she understood her needs and would care for her like a member of her own family. It's clear immediately how much Diane loves / has a passion for dogs and is a very caring / welcoming person. This was also the first time I would be away from my girl so I appreciated so much the frequent updates from Diane and that Diane took the time to understand Phoebe's personality and I felt she listened to my concerns and reassured me about anything and I knew my Phoebe was in great hands and also having such a fun time. Thank you to Diane for taking such good care of my girl and welcoming her into your home for the weekend .”

“Cosette was great! My dog is like my child, so I was a little hesitant to try something new, but I’m so glad I did! My dog, Cash, seemed to have a great time, and was super comfortable very quickly. I appreciated the videos and pictures I was sent throughout his stay, it made any nerves I had ease. Cash will definitely be back to stay, and I’m sure he will be looking forward to it.”

She was very quick to respond and provided daily updates with pictures while I was away. I will absolutely use this family again as a sitter. They are so trusting and I will be recommending them to all of my friends :)”

“Hali and Levi are the best! They kept me up to date on my sweet baby while we were vacationing and very transparent when there was a boo boo involved. Hali jumped to take her to the vet for me just for reassurance! It was nothing Hali or Levi did, my little one just decided to be clumsy! I would 10 out of 10 recommend Hali and Levi for your pet sitting!”

My goal is to be that person for you! I'm currently working part-time from home so I have flexibility to do walking or day care during the week and can facilitate boarding on some weekends! Please reach out for availability!! I look forward to meeting your fur baby! I can come to you or you can drop your fur baby off to me! I have a fully fenced yard (high fence) and also have two different sized crates depending on your fur baby's needs!

“Abigail communicated well and took good care of Cleo. She sent photos and kept me up to date. Cleo seemed to have a good time also. Just be sure to be clear if you only are looking for your pet to be the only dog as Cleo ended up boarding with another dog even though the sitters profile only indicated one pet at a time.”

Natalie (and her family) were awesome. Loved on my senior cat (16) and dog (10) like they were her own. She went above and beyond with the feedings and care. She sent pictures and updated me every day. Sometimes multiple times a day which I loved since I had never been away from them that long. She has plenty of yard and a screened porch for them to enjoy. I will use her again and I would highly recommend her.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Hampstead

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Hampstead is $44 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 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 390 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Hampstead. 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 Hampstead 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 Hampstead 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 Hampstead.

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 Hampstead 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.
