“Laura was great with Beau and I believe Beau had a great time with Laura and her family including her dog! I would recommend Laura and I will definitely use her again! She was excellent!!”
“Dior had a great stay at Marissa & Mosieo’s. They have two small dogs & a fenced in yard so she had play buddies, space & time to run around. Marissa shared a video of pure joy. She made herself at home.”
“Scott provided exceptional care for my Chihuahua mix. He was very professional, friendly, and responsive. I loved the cute pictures he sent me while I was away. Paris seemed happy and very well taken care of. Will definitely use him in the future.”
“Luis has been great with Winnie. She has had 3 accidents in our 2 trips with him and he was very patient and understanding with her and with us. Highly recommend! His Dog Elvis is also a team player and great with other dogs.”
“For the weekend of March 20-22, we had such a good experience with Carlita watching our Lewey. You always feel a little nervous leaving your dog with someone for the first time, but she took good care of him. We so appreciated the regular updates of how he was doing. She kept us posted on his eating, playing and potty breaks so that we would know how he was doing and adjusting to a new environment. She took him on regular walks, ensured that he had playtime, and it was a plus that he had two other pups to play with. Carlita is professional, friendly and warm, and we would definitely recommend her. Thank you, Carlita, for taking time with Lewey while we were away.”
“We wholeheartedly recommend Jerry. From start to finish his communication was top notch. He was very attentive to our dog’s needs and were particularly grateful for his proactive and supportive approach when our dog presented some behavioral challenges. Thank you, Jerry!”
“My wife and have been using dog sitters to help us with our significant travel schedule for over 20 years. We have had some good ones, some not-so-good ones, and a couple of very good ones. Presently we have a 9 pound Havanese and a 23 pound mini Irish Doodle. We chose Mitzi (and her family) for our recent two week trip to Long Island. Granted that this was our first time using her, but our experience with Mitzi was as good or better than any other sitter we have ever used. She listens well and has great attention to detail. Her house and large enclosed yard are perfect, and she and her husband both work from home. She loved our dogs as if they were her own (she has four), and they loved her and her entire family. She communicated with pics and video at least two or three times a day to help us stay connected with our dogs and assure us everything was well. Our dogs came home happy and exhausted from so much paly and run time. While nothing unusual happened during their stay at Mitzi's, I am convinced that I could depend on her to do whatever is necessary for them in love. We plan to use Mitzi as long as she is available.”
“Our dog Mila loved her stay with Jill & family! She was well taken care of, had lots of fun with Jill's dog Carolina, and we received photos & updates throughout her stay. We were able to enjoy our time away because we knew our baby was in good hands.”
“Martine was a great sitter for my dog. She sent lots of photos and updates while he was with her and I appreciated the communication. I will book with her and her husband again!”
“Hanna is the best. Gives us photos and videos and texts throughout the day to check in on our dog. Wouldn’t and couldn’t recommend anyone else. Thank you Hanna!”
“Buddy, my Westie, was well taken care of while we were gone for 10 days. He seemed as comfortable with Mary as we were when we had the Meet and Greet. Although we missed him we were not worried about his care. Would definitely use Mary again!”
“Paige gets a 10 out of 5 stars from us! We were nervous about leaving our spunky puppy with anyone during our trip, and Paige was extraordinary. She and Decky were loving and took such great care of Maisy. Her care gave us the peace of mind we needed to enjoy our travels. She sent us so many photos and went above and beyond what we asked carewise. THANK YOU!!”
“Kelly and Jacob were great. They took care of my hyper 3month old Lab puppy for the weekend. My dog seemed to feel safe with them as he was cuddling up with the kids on the couch. Kelly was great about sending pictures of my puppy during his stay and made me not have to worry about if he was okay.”
“Ryanne took great care of my Lola. She is senior and has a few additional issues and she was very well kept while I was away. She kept me up-to-date on everything, sent pictures, and was very communicative and supportive throughout the process. Would definitely book again should the need arise.”
“Diego was wonderful watching our dog while we were out of town. He shared photos and videos, and ensured she got lots of fun and playtime. Would definitely consider having Diego dog sit again!”
“Andrea was very easy to work with. We did a Meet and Greet a few weeks before Oskar stayed with her. She sent pictures and updates almost every day. She responded promptly to my messages. I would consider sending Oskar to Andrea again if I needed a dog sitter.”
“I have to admit, I had never used rover it was last minute. My usual boarders we're full, but i came across Valerie and her profile made me take that chance. Im so glad i did she was amazing! She sent pics everyday, she made my trip more relaxed and i was at ease. I will use her services again my dogs loved her.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Knightdale
We really appreciated having someone to look after our very energetic boy while we were traveling internationally. We received a daily update with a photo (typically sent in the evening EST). Parker did develop an upset stomach during part of his stay, and he was well cared for while that was happening. He came home happy and really enjoyed playtime with his new friends while staying with Hannah
Words can not express how grateful I am for Marissa & Mosieo for taking care of our sweet Chyna!! They sent updates daily and communicated with us about Chyna activities each day along with pictures. Chyna love their home and they care they provided. This is our second time using their services and gets better each time. Really sweet family. We needed to extend out time being out flight was delayed and it was no problem! Very understanding! THANK YOU SOOO MUCH!
Nadia did a wonderful job caring for my pup Scotty. He had some initial nerves staying with a new sitter, but she made sure he felt comfortable and he adjusted well. Nadia gave plenty of updates and photos throughout the stay. I’d confidently recommend her services to any friend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Knightdale on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 1,908 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Knightdale. 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.
97% of Knightdale 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 Knightdale 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 Knightdale 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 Knightdale.
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 Knightdale 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.
