“They were so welcoming to my bully he didn’t even say goodbye and walked right in their house….geez thanks man! He was still excited to see me thankfully but that is the kind of care you can expect from them. They sent me updates regularly and are a very friendly couple. They are certainly people I would trust using again and plan to! Thanks for taking care of him so well!”
“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.”
“Tyler did awesome with my two doggies when a last minute overnight came up! I will definetly be using him again! He also sent pictures and videos :) my boys are happy and safe and had a great time!”
“Channon was so great. We left our 75 lb Pyrenees mix with Channon for two nights. Channon's dog Bizzy was the perfect playmate for our pup! She did a great job caring for him, sharing any concerns she had, and sending a video or two. We could tell that our pup was having a great time and felt very comfortable. Thank you Channon!!”
“Melany was great! She sent lots of pictures of Forrest everyday, and she even kept him for an extra night when our plans didn't go as expected for pickup. He was happy and healthy when we picked him up. Thanks Melany!”
“Amber was fantastic! She took such great care of Sherman while we were away, and we felt completely comfortable knowing he was in good hands. She was dependable, caring, and easy to communicate with. Sherman was happy and well cared for when we got home. We would absolutely recommend Amber and wouldn’t hesitate to have her watch Sherman again. Thank you!”

Will 100% rebook if we travel to Salem again, we had a great experience!”

About: My family had two aging beagles I helped care for that eventually passed away. They both required much attention and medication. Any time my family members or friends need someone to watch their dog, they ask me. I have experience working with smaller sized dogs and much bigger dogs. I have also worked at a humane society. I just graduated from grad school so I will have plenty of time to care for your fur babies and will make sure they are happy and healthy! I will make sure they go to the bathroom regularly, make sure they get plenty of exercise/walks, make sure they are well fed, and make sure they are overall safe and comfortable. It is my job to make sure your fur baby is happy! If using boarding services, my apartment complex is very pet friendly and has a great dog park!
“Darcy is the BEST!!! She took fantastic care of my boys. Gave me daily updates and sent me the cutest pictures! I am so grateful she loved them like her own for the week 🥰 She even sent their bowls back sparkling clean ✨ 10/10 recommend!! I will definitely be using her services again.”
“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 SO much for watching our wild Wesson! He can be a handful but I’m so glad we picked your family to hang with him during Christmas. With another dog at the house and a young toddler it was like a perfect replacement for being home, a home away from home! He looked so happy and relaxed in all the pictures and the updates on his condition and mood etc were frequent and detailed so we never had to worry. It was our first time ever leaving him with someone other than family so this was a huge leap of faith and it’s safe to say we’ll be doing Wesson a favor and dropping him at y’all’s house any time he needs his own vacation! Thank you!!”
“Christina took Buoy at the last minute. I am very pleased with the care he received and the communication we received regularly. She is a very caring and responsible young woman. I would recommend her to anyone.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Kernersville
We are so thankful for the wonderful care they provided to Pluto! The daily updates were especially appreciated and gave us reassurance throughout our trip. They were responsive , flexible, and very accommodating with Plutos's food requirements and our late pick up. Most importantly,Pluto was well cared for. We would definitely trust them with him again.
Angela and her family took fantastic care of my two dogs for the 3-1/2 weeks I was out of the country. This was my first time at Angela's and I would def recommend them to anyone in a heartbeat. Big yard, lots of love and snuggles. My dogs have NOT done well at a traditional boarding facility in the past. But with Angela, they thrived.
Gabrielle was absolutely wonderful! She took such great care of my dog and made me feel comfortable and at ease while I was away. She was kind, attentive, communicative, and genuinely cared about making sure my dog was happy and well taken care of. She kept me updated throughout the stay, which I really appreciated, and I could tell my dog was in good hands. I’m so grateful for Gabrielle and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Kernersville is $36 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $49 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 of October 2026, there are 513 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Kernersville. 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 Kernersville 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 Kernersville 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 Kernersville.
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 Kernersville 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.
