“Ashley, Jon, and the kids were AMAZING!!! Roman is a sneaky girl who likes to get into stuff and they took my warning serious unlike other sitters I've used in the past. I got lots of pictures and my babies had a great time. Will 100% be using then again <3”
“Sarah and her family were great to my pup Smokey Monroe. Smokey got plenty of walks and frisbee time and also had other pups to play with. Sarah sent photos and was very communicative. Overall Smokey had a great time and was well care for while I was away.”
“Amanda was great. Our dog sitter plans fell through very last minute right before July fourth and Amanda saved the day and even drove an hour to pick our Daisy up!”
“Gabby was amazing. My Sully stayed with Gabby and her clan for a week. Sully had SO much fun interacting with the dogs and children. No issues what so ever. Sully has been napping the last 2 days since we picked him up.”
“Diane and her family were AMAZING with Hank! They took great care of him. Diane sent daily updates and pictures, which is always nice when we're away from our dog. I highly recommend Diane and her family!”
About: Hi! I’m Andrew. I grew up with dogs and now care for them through Rover because I genuinely miss having one around every day. I provide a safe, clean home with a fenced yard, lots of playtime, walks, and plenty of updates while you’re away. I treat every dog like they’re my own. Side note, I do have a cat but she is an outside cat. I’m currently working 5am-1pm but I will be switching to night shifts around the end of July 2026, those shifts will be 3-11, 4-12pm. I also work right down the road so I don’t mind taking a lunch and running home to take out the pup for a potty break. I have a fenced yard, an upstairs and downstairs with a doggy gate leftover from our last dog, plenty of waste bags and dog leashes and some leftover toys. It is a very comfortable clean house.
“We were SO grateful to have found Tasha. She sent pictures every day and kept us updated on how our puppy was doing. It made it so easy to leave him for the first time since we got him. He was loved on, and played his heart out every day. This is such a great alternative to boarding because I didn’t want my young puppy crated for many hours a day when he’s used to being out all day with me at home. I highly recommend Tasha and will definitely be using her in the future!”
“Ollie and Chief loved their stay with Natalie and her family! Ollie got to play with Natalies dog Rocky and get some of his energy out. Natalie was able to take care of Chiefs senior dog needs (like his diapers!) and treated the dogs as her own. We will definitely use her again in the future since she took such great care of our fur babies!”
About: One of my biggest strengths as a pet sitter is my high energy and fun loving personality. I genuinely enjoy being active, whether that means long walks and jogs or playing fetch for half an hour. Whether your pet wants to cuddle on the couch or burn off energy with playtime, I'm happy to match their pace and make sure they feel safe and happy while you're away. I'm out the door Monday- Friday from 0730 to approx. 1600. I could walk/run/feed your pets in the morning prior to then and anytime after I'm home from work. Saturday and Sunday I am very flexible :) I have two cats that I will keep upstairs to give your pet the privacy and space on the first floor when boarding. I live in a townhouse with a small front and backyard but would most likely be walking/ jogging around the block with your doggo if boarding.
“Danielle did an awesome job caring for my fur babies. They were right at home when i picked them up. She kept me posted daily, administered my oldest dog’s med, and allowed me to bring things from home to keep them comfy. We will definitely be returning again for her services.”
“Samantha is a wonderful dog sitter!! Knox is always so excited when we pull up to her house and she loves Samantha, her family and their dogs. She keeps me updated every day with pics and videos. We are very grateful to have found such an amazing sitter for Knox!!”
“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.”
“Rebecca and Pippa were great with my pup Harlow! She felt comfortable as soon as she met both of them. Rebecca was wonderful about being flexible with our changing travel plans and was very communicative and responsive. Would definitely recommend and use again! Thanks Rebecca and Pippa! :)”
“Charlotte had a fabulous time with Steve and his family! And we really enjoyed the feedback on how Charlotte was adjusting away from home! She loves it! (We can tell by the pictures Steve texted to us to let us know how she was doing). Steve is great, his family is great and their yard is great for her energy and curious personality. We highly recommend Steve for dog boarding services!”
“Savannah did a wonderful job of watching our very enthusiastic 10 month pittie mix, Minnie, for a week while we were visiting some friends! It was our first time leaving her with a sitter overnight, and Savannah did a wonderful job making Minnie feel right at home. She sent lots of great photos that showed just how much our pup was enjoying her time, and she was very communicative with any questions we had throughout the process.”
“Was a great experience I trust her to the max thanks you so much my boy DJ was well taking care of while I was gone . I didn’t have to worry at all . She gave me updates every day which means a lot. Very excited to bring DJ back when I have a family emergency or going on trip when I can’t take DJ thank you again”
“Carey was the absolute best dog sitter I could ever ask for!! She was so so helpful and patient and made me feel so at ease taking care of my high-energy German Shepherd, Lady. It’s always a bit nerve-racking to leave your dog with someone new, and especially so when your dog is a handful like my Lady! But Carey truly went above and beyond my expectations, and even when Lady had some frustrating anxiety issues, Carey took care of it without complaint, which seriously meant the world to me. She also sent me lots of photos every day and kept me super updated!! Book Carey for your next dog sitter and you will be so glad you did!!”
“Brook is fantastic! So flexible with scheduling, so sweet, and really cares that the pups in her care get along and are happy. Denny came home exhausted (in the best way - from playing!).”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Holly Ridge on Rover is $32.1 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 393 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Holly Ridge. 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.
95% of Holly Ridge 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 Holly Ridge 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 Holly Ridge 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 Holly Ridge.
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 Holly Ridge 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.
