“Michelle took great care of our pup! We have a 16-month old lab-mix with medium/high energy, and she kept her safe, active, and entertained. She was also flexible with our travel schedule which was massively helpful. Much more reasonable/affordable rates compared to other Rovers in the area. No idea how people justify $75 - $100+ nightly rates; seems outrageous, IMO. Anyways, not much more you can ask for or expect! Great experience all around. Will not hesitate to book with her again if/when the need arises.”

“Sara provided awesome care for Josie, our Moyen Poodle! She took her into her own home and together with Sara's two dogs they all got along very well. Josie got a lttle anxious one day and gnawed a little bit of door casing, Sara was very understanding and more concerned about Josie than the gnaw marks. We would recommend Sara for anyone looking for a caring, compassionate person to look after the dog they love! Respectfully, Gordon & Janet Galligan”

About: Hi! I am 32 years old and I have been a groomer for 14 years. I owned my own grooming salon and sold the business to return back to college. I am Fear Free and AKC SAFE groomer certified which means I know how to handle animals safely and trained in animal behavior. I would love the opportunity to take care of your babies promising you they will be safe and loved! ❤️I also still groom small dogs under 40 lbs. If you are interested in a groom message me (: I attend college online at ECU so I am available any day or time. I do need a few hours a day to spend doing my school work, which won’t affect drop ins or walks, but if I’m house sitting I would do this work from your home (: I understand that every dog is different so I am very flexible on what kind of care you need for your pet. If you want a stroller walk for senior pets or a run for an active dog or if you simply just want me to play fetch in the house. You know what your babies need the best!

“Excellent experience for us and especially our two dogs! Sam provided excellent care and updates about our dogs through the duration of their stay. She did a great job handling our senior male chihuahua and had a special bond with our other (sometimes skittish) female chihuahua. She has a great set up to handle her dogs and doggie visitors. Thanks Sam!”

Elizabeth and her husband took amazing care of Dingo and treated him like part of the family! We got lots of updates and pics which we really appreciated and made us smile when we were missing him, and we could really enjoy our vacation knowing he was well cared for. They took him for lots of walks in their beautiful neighborhood. Sprinkles is sweet and calm and got along great with our boy too! They are definitely professional and experienced dog-lovers, I will definitely book again when we come back to OBX in the future!

Michelle was wonderful with both of our dogs, including senior care for our 14 year old girl. We received daily updates during their stay, and both dogs were calm and happy at pick up. Will absolutely leave our pups for a vacation at Michelle’s again!

Gloria was great! We were visiting for the weekend and had to find a sitter the night before (super last minute). We lucked out when Gloria responded—she was super kind, flexible, and understanding. She sent pictures of our Roscoe on a walk and even set him up in front of a movie—so sweet! 100% recommend

My dog was able to stay home for the week and was much happier than going to a kennel. Very happy with Ogizhan's care of Max and playing with him.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Kill Devil Hills

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Kill Devil Hills on Rover is $56 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $81 per night. 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 20 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Kill Devil Hills. 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.

Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Kill Devil Hills 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 Kill Devil Hills.

<b>Tip:</b> 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 Kill Devil Hills 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.
