“Absolutely wonderful sitters! I can’t recommend them enough. I received ample updates and they so kindly went with the flow when I experienced flight delays. Rufus had the best time ever!”
“Kali was absolutely amazing! We have brought our dog to her twice now and she has had a blast every time! She is extremely flexible and takes amazing care of our dog! I could not recommend Kali more!”
“Sarah was extremely easy to work with and Jasper had a great time with her dog Jimmy and her family. Communication was excellent and Jasper loved his time at her home!”
“Nancy took such good care of my 87 lb. baby while we were away. He's got a great thing going where he gets to sleep on a couch in front of a heater and that's him living his best life. I know he's being loved and well cared for when he's with her.”
“Hope and her family are animal lovers and it shows. They were flexible about drop off and pickup times and weren't offended when I asked for a meet and greet before leaving our dog.”
“Madelyne was welcoming and great with communication. I especially appreciated her updates the weekend. She has a great yard for the pups to play. Would definitely use her services again!”
“Paul & family were great! We needed a sitter for Gator on short notice, and he was so attentive and caring. He kept us updated throughout and made sure Gator was comfortable and having a good time. We really appreciated the communication and knowing Gator was in good hands. Would definitely recommend Paul!”
“Jennie and Craig watched our Aussie for 5 nights while we went on a family trip and they were just amazing from the moment of our meet and greet. I really appreciate how they introduce dogs to their home and other dogs as our dog can sometimes be anxious. They let him sniff around the backyard on his own before bringing out her dog and eased into it. He loved being in their care and with few other furry friends to run around and play ball with in their backyard. We look forward to having them watch Theo again soon!”
“Liz and Logan were such amazing pet sitters! We booked with them a couple weeks before our trip and quickly arranged a meet up to ensure everyone got along. I was thrilled to find a sitter nearby that would take our pup for 12 days with such short notice. Our dog was so well taken care of and we got updates the entire time. I love how they work from home and have a fenced in yard, it was nice to know they were spending lots of time together. They even allowed him on furniture and to sleep in bed with them. I would highly recommend them for any of your pet needs!”
About: Hey! I'm Sadie. I've lived in West Asheville for about 4 years now. I'm a former overnight pet sitter and dog trainer/handler at Evolutionary K9 in North GA. As well as a former Kennel Tech at a Daycare/Boarding & Grooming spot in Black Mountain. I have taken classes on Dog Cognition + Emotion through Duke University. I love animals and have my own 9 year old Siberian Husky who I spend most of my time with when I'm not working. I've been in animal care this for roughly 10 years. I have taken care of young dogs, senior dogs, dogs/cats with special needs, goats, snakes etc and would love to give your babe the care they need when you're away. I'm typically available for drop by walks, visits, boarding and general care throughout the week and weekends dependent on my work schedule. Thanks and look forward to meeting you and your pet! I have my own pup at home so I do not do overnight stays but I do boarding and I am flexible throughout the week/weekends dependent on my work schedule. I would be happy to drop by and feed, walk and/or play with your pets while you're at work, etc. (My husky is an escape artist so I am extremely careful and mindful when walking anyone's pets!)
“High praise for availability, punctuality, care, activities, plus tons of photos during his stay. Kaitlyn receives my highest recommendation. Max just made some “BFF - best friends forever. He will be back. Again and again.. TF”
“Kathleen was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Remy! From the moment we connected, she was attentive, patient, caring, and kind. She kept in touch with us daily, sending sweet updates and adorable pictures that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was clear Remy was happy, healthy, and in loving hands. Kathleen went above and beyond by meeting me at a convenient halfway point between our homes, making the entire process so easy and stress-free. She was a delight to work with—professional, thoughtful, and genuinely passionate about caring for animals. We will absolutely be using her again, without question. Highly recommend Kathleen to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter!”
“Megan and Erika took excellent care of my dogs and I highly recommend them as sitters. Their home is perfectly set up for dogs and the place is cute, clean, and well maintained. Communication was excellent throughout the stay and my dogs were happy. I will use them again.”
“Molly was absolutely amazing! “Fenced in yard” does not do her place justice. Her yard was our dog’s dream. Beautifully grassed and open for running around. Our puppy loved her puppy and she sent so many photos and videos of them playing together. Cannot recommend her enough!”
“This was our first time boarding our two Benedoodles with Miranda and she was great. The dogs seemed comfortable with her right away and appeared to enjoy staying with her. Miranda clearly cared a lot about our dog's wellbeing and sent us updates and pictures while we were gone, which helped ease our concerns about leaving the dogs with someone new. We'll definitely use her again.”
“Kristina did such a great job with my 5 year old golden retriever Rosie. She sent me lots of cute updates and my dog absolutely loved her. She even went out of her way to bring one of my dogs favorite toys that she accidently left behind back to us. We will definitely be using Kristina as a future petsitter and would recommend her for anyone looking for a wonderful and dependable buddy for your dog while you’re away.”
“Laura is exactly who we have been looking for. She reassured us and asked if there was anything she could do to make us comfortable with leaving our puppy- what a relief after a having a bad experience with a different Rover Sitter. Ginny had so much fun with her dog Matilda, and came home tired. Laura was the one easy part of our bad day. We will be back!”
“Nate and Bilbo are fantastic! My two Boston terriers stayed with Nate for 10 days and its clear they had a great time. I got awesome pictures every day and Nate responded quickly to all of my texts. I will definitely be using Nate's services again. I can't say enough good things and I highly recommend him!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Leicester
We just picked up our pup from a weeklong stay with Katie and Jeremy, and judging by her level of exhaustion, she had a great time. 😊 This was her second stay with them and we now have an even greater level of comfort knowing she is well cared for in this home. Frequent photos and text messages from Katie and Jeremy were greatly appreciated. And we loved that toward the end of her stay , she had a companion dog to chase in the backyard. They clearly both had a great time. Thank you, Katie and Jeremy for your excellent care for Maggie. We have another trip planned in spring of next year and will be in touch to schedule boarding for that one too. We highly recommend this home for short or extended stays. A++ pet sitters!!
Melody is simply the best dogsitter I have ever had! She has the warmest energy, my dog Cooper loved her immediately! Her home is lovely, immaculate and set up with thoughtful details to make the dogs feel snug and happy! And her yard is heavenly! Cooper had the best time exploring, having cuddles on the couch - I don't think he missed me even a little! And she was able to accommodate a last minute request when I was really in a bind - coming to Asheville for a weekend reunion with an old friend and my care for Cooper fell through the night before! I hope she's not too busy to watch Cooper next time I am in town but you should definitely use Melody!
David “Albert” is fantastic with Penny and Millie. We had previously booked him for a house sit and that went quite well. This trip was the first time boarding Penny away from home and she loved it! We’ve already booked again for a longer upcoming trip. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Leicester is $44 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $92 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 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 350 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Leicester. 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.
96% of sitters in Leicester 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 Leicester 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 Leicester.
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 Leicester 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.
