“Katelyn was wonderful with Oscar and extremely responsive. She sent me many texts and pictures to keep me updated on how Oscar was doing. Great fenced in yard and Oscar loves the sun! Thanks Katelyn for taking such good care!”
“Abigail went above and beyond to make sure our Cam, and Barkley were safe. She sent up dates everyday with pictures and even bath them twice, She made them feel right at home as if they were her own. I would definitely use her services again. Thank you for all you do”
“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!!”
“Donna was fabulous with Roscoe. Roscoe had the best time I could tell it in his face. He was very well taken care of and we really really appreciate everything Donna did for Roscoe.”
“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!”
“Alicia & Richard are wonderful sitters for Louie! I never worry about him when leaving him there. They always keep in contact and let me know how Louie is doing. It’s great to know that they treat him as their own!”
“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.”
“They took great care of Ellie and she seemed to enjoy her time there - Ellie is nervous around other dogs but she seems to have adjusted very well - thank you so much for taking care of her - and I am sure she was a hit with the neighbors as she loves peopke”
“Can't say enough great things about Atina. She took excellent care of my 16 year old "puppy." She almost instantly made her feel at home (and sent plenty of pics so I could relax as well!) and had her happily bouncing around with the pack by the first morning. Great set up and carer!”
“Stella did an amazing job with Rico! It was 4th of July weekend, she handled the fireworks and stuff very well. She made sure that he had his exercise and gave daily updates!”
“Rudy had a blast at Jen and Matt’s! They treated him like he was one of their own fur babies. They sent me plenty of pics of him playing and loving life there with his new buddies. I highly recommend them. They will be my go-to sitters in the future!”
“Our dogs were well cared for and we felt so safe leaving them on our trip. Aunna was consistently communicating and sending photos of the pups. She is a wonderful sitter and we are grateful we found her.”
“If I had more than five stars I would gladly give Melissa more! This was our first time using Rover and our Lizzy’s first time overnight for a whole week with a stranger. Melissa was amazing from the start. Made sure Lizzy (and we) were comfortable there. She provided me with regular updates and pictures all week. She has a few sweet little dogs of her own and they became fast friends with Lizzy. She gave Lizzy free rein of her home, took her for walks and gave her lots and lots and lots of love!! I would hire Melissa again in a heartbeat!”
“Joe & Celeste could not have been better for our Morgan. This was our first sleep-over, and we were concerned because Morgan is getting ready for a torn ACL surgery. They let us bring all of Morgan's comforts, bed, playpen, blankets, toys, etc, to help him be comfortable. They were careful to not let him walk or run too much, & gave him pain pills as needed, while keeping me informed at all times. We felt so at ease letting them take care of our boy. Their two pups were very accepting of a new guy in their home, too. We could tell that Morgan enjoyed his stay, and was very contented. We will DEFINITELY be using them again once Morgan heels from his surgery!”
“Amy was great with our dog, Charlie. He suffers from separation anxiety which seems to be getting worse. He wasn't doing well at all in the hotel room so we decided to try a sitter. He was restless his first day, but that was to be expected. By day 2 he was having a great time with her pups! She saved our vacation and Charlie got to have play dates. Win win! Thanks again Amy!”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Ocean Isle Beach is $45
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Ocean Isle Beach
Shannon & Miguel were awesome with our Pebbles. She usually has anxiety after a stay with a sitter, but this stay, she was a happy and content dog during and after her stay. We can't say enough wonderful things about them. They constantly stayed in touch with updates, photos and videos. Happy fur baby = happy owners❤️🥰🐶
Laura and Elijah couldn’t have been friendlier or more accommodating with our last-minute booking and pretty high maintenance brand new, 11-week old puppy! They loved her and cared for her as if she was their own pup! We received many photos of walks on the beach and couch snuggles. We could not have asked for a better experience and will definitely rebook with this lovely active, animal-loving couple!
I would absolutely have Shannon and Miguel watch Sandy again! Shannon was amazing about sharing frequent photos and videos, which was so comforting while I was traveling. Their home is immaculate, yet Sandy was immediately made to feel like part of the family—even being welcomed onto their bed. It gave me such peace of mind knowing she was happy, comfortable, and truly well-loved. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Ocean Isle Beach on Rover is $33.3 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 194 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Ocean Isle Beach. 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 Ocean Isle Beach 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 Ocean Isle Beach 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 Ocean Isle Beach 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 Ocean Isle Beach.
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 Ocean Isle Beach 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.
