“I can not explain how happy I am with my sitter for Dante she was amazing and kept me informed with pics and updates on his days with her which gave me so much peace. I will be using her again for sure. Thanks again!”
“Brittany was absolutely WONDERFUL taking care of our Honeybear!!! She was warm and kind and Honey was so comfortable and loved her as soon as she met her!! She has lots of experience dog sitting, so she has a beautiful, very clean, dog friendly home with all the doggie beds and toys they could ever want! Also a nice big, fenced in back yard so Honey could run and play and do her business whenever needed. She had lots of playtime and snuggles with Honey, took her on walks, sent pics, and gave us updates every single day! We've had some great sitters, but none as phenomenal as Brittany!!! We would absolutely LOVE to have her keep our baby in the future!!! -Heather C.”
“Rachel is a fantastic sitter. I can not express how thankful I am for her looking after my 17 yr old dog and 1 yr old cat. Both fur babies were so happy. She kept me posted about both of them. My Tom was so happy at her home, I can tell by his face. Thank you Rachel and your family looking after my fur babies”
“Very accommodating and understanding with travel delays. Dogs looked healthy and happy. Best part was she provided a complementary dog wash for the boys . Definitely recommend.”
“Kaitlyn was able to save my life and watch Oakley last minute while I’m traveling from out of town and she was great! Thank you so, so much. I would definitely recommend Kaitlyn for your pet needs.”
“Zydae was great with Shadow. She kept me updated with messages, pictures and videos. She followed through on all instructions and provided a safe and fun environment for Shadow. I highly recommend and will definitely continue to use her for my boarding needs!!”
“Mary was fantastic. She kept me updated with how my dog, Gemma, was adjusting and sent great photos that made it obvious her family was enjoying Gemma and Gemma was loving her time there as well.”
“I was very pleased with the care Robin gave to my pups while we went on vacation. I did not have anyone in my circle who boarded animals so I took a chance and I'm glad I did. From the moment my dogs met Robin they felt her love and had not hesitation to go with her. She kept me posted daily which gave me comfort. I will definitely use and highly recommend her services to anyone! Thank you for a positive experience!!”
“Thank you June for taking such great care of my two pups. You made me and them feel at ease as soon as we walked that the door. I especially enjoyed the pics and videos to let me know how they are doing.”
“Ashley made sure our dog felt comfortable right away. Throughout the stay, she sent us lots of wonderful photos, and it was clear our dog was truly happy. She cares for dogs with so much love and attention. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.”
“This was the 1st time we've left Hero with anyone while we went out of town, but when we had our initial meet and greet with Christy, I felt comfortable leaving him. Christy sent us pictures and we laughed because he looked right at home. I definitely will be using Christy again and will be recommending her! Thank you Christy”
“Lakonka was theeee best sitter. From the meet and greet to the end of Phoebe’s stay, she was extremely professional, super friendly and easy to communicate with. I received pictures or a video every day which is truly appreciated when I’m away from my baby awhile. I highly recommend Lakonka for your fur baby’s needs. So much so, I’ve already coordinated the next time Phoebe will be in her care :)”
“I cannot express how grateful I am to Kenan and Kayleigh for taking such excellent care of my fur baby, Kaine, during his stay with them. From the moment I dropped him off, I could tell he would be in good hands. Kenan and Kayleigh immediately put me at ease with their warm personalities and love for animals. Throughout Kaine's stay, Kenan regularly sent updates and photos, showing how much fun he was having. It was clear that Kaine felt right at home with them, as he played and enjoyed being outside. What impressed me the most was their attention to detail and willingness to cater to Kaine's specific needs. They made sure to follow his routine, which is so important for his well-being. Their genuine love for dogs shines through in everything they do. I highly recommend Kenan and Kayleigh for anyone looking for reliable and caring pet sitters. They treated Kaine as if he were their own, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thank you, Kenan and Kayleigh, for giving Kaine such a wonderful time! I will definitely be coming back the next time I need a sitter!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Julian
We felt at ease as soon as we met Morgann. She is very knowledgeable and it shows she has experience. It was out first time boarding our dog and she set the bar high! We got pics and updates throughout her stay. We picked Shelby up and before leaving she went to Morgann and gave her love on her own showing us she had been well taken care of. She will be our first call anytime we need leave Shelby in the future.
10/ 10!!! What an amazing experience we had with Morgann, from her quick response to the easy set up for drop off and pick up. Upon arrival it was super calm and very easy for the pups to get use to the area! Sent very nice updates and pictures during stay. It was after pick up that I realized the dogs were fully bathed and groomed and smelt amazing!! This was the kind of place we wanted for the dogs! I will be a returning client for sure! Thank you Morgann and family!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 559 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Julian. 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.
94% of sitters in Julian 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 Julian 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 Julian.
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 Julian 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.
