“Joe and Celeste were wonderful. They treated Oscar and Riley like their own. They followed the pups schedule and called if there was a question. The pups were very comfortable with them. Loved the pictures they sent. We will definitely contact them for all our future boarding needs.”
“Izzy had a great time, came home and laid around for a couple days. I know she got lots of exercise in during her stay, as a big puppy she needs that. Jen kept us updated and sent pics and videos of our girl, much appreciated.”
“Truly couldn't have asked for a better sitter. He was treated genuinely like he was a part of the family. Provided updates daily and shared pictures of his outings to stores, restaurant, golf cart rides and walks on the beach. I was absolutely pleased with the caregiving for the time he was there. I would 100% use Donna again. I recommend her to anyone who wants their fur baby treated just the way you treat them, family.”
“Drop off and pick up easy and flexible. Enjoyed photos and video of my fur babies. The babies seemed happy and healthy. They were exhausted which is always a good sign. I'd definitely use Danielle again.”
“Buffy enjoyed her visits at Katelyn's, from her Meet & Greet right through her stay. The entire booking process was easy and flawless. Kately followed all written instructions, provided speedy, thorough communication and photo updates. We look forward to booking a future reservation with Katelyn when needed.”
“Laura took great care of our high energy pup! He got along well with her pet and got in some great walks too. Great communication as well. We hope to use them again in the future. 5 stars!!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Hazel’s 8-day stay! From the moment we dropped her off, it was clear she was in caring, capable hands. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Hazel came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It was obvious she received plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and was treated like part of the family rather than just another dog. Communication was outstanding throughout the entire stay, and every interaction was professional, friendly, and reassuring. Knowing we can leave Hazel with someone we completely trust is invaluable. We would recommend John without hesitation to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and attentive sitter. Hazel is already looking forward to her next visit, and we’ll absolutely be booking again. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our girl!”
“Lara took wonderful care of our little Teddy! He got plenty of attention and loving from her and her sweet children. I appreciated that she sent pictures and texts to let me know that he was adjusting and doing well!”
“We were so nervous to leave our boy, having only boarded him once in his life—but Skyla has been absolutely wonderful. She’s communicative, insightful, and truly cares for the pups she watches. Our high-energy German Shepherd gets multiple walks, outdoor playtime, and even training sessions with her. You can tell she loves what she does. We’re incredibly grateful to have found her and highly recommend her to anyone looking for thoughtful, attentive care.”
“If you are looking for a pet sitter for your fur baby, look no further. Melissa is a caring responsible pet owner and will care for your pet as if it is her own. She was very conscious of Josie’s routine and habits. I felt very comfortable leaving her with Melissa. I received pictures and updates everyday. Definitely will be using Melissa again to watch Josie.”
“Highly recommend Kyle, he was very communicative and took very good care of our dogs. Our dogs were happy and tired out by pick up time, we will definitely be booking again in the future!”
“Atina did a great job taking care of our pooch for Labor Day weekend. She sent several pictures and kept us updated as to what was going on. Will use her again when the need arises!”
“Was a great experience with Maria, she is an experienced and thoughtful dog lover. First time with our new pup, so we were a little nervous, but the boarding went great, no issues, Maria communicated exceptionally and took good care of our little Daisy. Thank you Maria!”
“We have not left our dog with anyone in a long time and I was concerned about how he would do away from us. Deborah was great- Our dog seemed happy and relaxed in the pictures that she shared and at pick up. I love that she has a fenced in yard as well.”
About: Hi, I'm Jenn. I'm an experienced pet sitter, dog walker and animal shelter volunteer. I've had many happy clients for years, they are my family My husband and I are young empty nesters who understand what it means to have peace-of-mind while we are away from our girl if we have to leave her for any length of time, we want pics and pupdates too. TERMS I work from home as a Senior Living Advisor so will be able to stay with your pet full time while you're away. Lots of pics and pup dates! Our sweet girl Nina welcomes other sweet pups for gentle, quiet overnight lovies and snacks and scenic walks on the beautiful treed area in our lovely neighborhood.
“We were so fortunate that Amanda was available last minute for us. We traveled from Virginia to NC to visit family with our Australian shepherd mix, Josie. We had intended to take Josie on all our outings with us. It was just way too hot to keep her out all day, so we got on Rover (we have used it at home numerous times) and were lucky enough to find Amanda. Josie enjoyed playing with her children and the family pets as well. We know she was much happier there that being out in the heat all day. Amanda responded quickly to our request and took great care of Josie. We would definitely use her again.”
About: I love animals and would love to help you out for any needs you need. I am at home all the time. Fenced in back yard. I work from home and have all the time to give outing outside and love while they stay in my home. I also have a teenager that would love it. I have a fenced in back yard and no animals at this time. So if you don’t want them around other animals I can do this too.
“I could not have been happier with Katherine. She sent me pictures every day of Lola and I know she gave her all the attention my pup needs. Highly recommend her if you are in need of a sitter for you dog.”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Nakina on Rover is $33.3 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of August 2026, there are 166 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Nakina. 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.
96% of Nakina 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 Nakina 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 Nakina 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 Nakina.
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 Nakina 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.
