“Michelle was a wonderful sitter for AJ! She was kind, thoughtful, and communicated with me throughout the visit. AJ loved her, and enjoyed all the walks and outdoor time. She treated AJ like her own and we are grateful we did not have to worry for his care while we were away.”

“We were so blessed to find Nicole to care for our pup over the weekend. It was his first time experiencing out of home overnight boarding so we were very nervous how he would do. She sent frequent updates with pictures of him playing with her sweet pups and going for regular walks which made me feel so much better! Although my pup was stressed, Nicole did everything possible to care for him and put him at ease. She even went above and beyond by washing his things and giving him a bath. I’m so appreciative of her and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat your pup like their own!”

“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”

“Had such a great experience boarding my pup with John! He was incredibly kind, communicative, and treated my pup like family. I got daily updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. Highly recommend John to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”

“Christianna was willing to keep our black lab Tazz over the Thanksgiving holiday. We were pleased that Christianna helped us out at the last minute and was flexible about the drop off and pick-up of our pet. The backyard is very large and has a 6' high wooden fence. Tazz seemed happy in all the photos shared over the seven day period. She was happy and healthy when we returned to pick her up. We have discovered that dropping Tazz off in Elizabeth City as we head north to Washington DC adds only 15 minutes one way to the drive. I would definitely leave Tazz with Christianna again.”


“She was awesome and super last minuite booking. My previous sitter back home bailed so i brought him to the beach, the house we stayed at wasnt super dog friendly so i reached out to gloria and she was willing to keep him for 3 days and the best part is he came back tired.”

“ERIC Always provides a safe, fun and dog friendly space for my highly Anxious dog. He let's her snuggle up to feel safe and gives her plenty of space to run around and play with other dogs. HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM..I drive 20.miles just to use his boarding service.”

“Melanie and Addison treated our dogs just like their own. Because of this, I was able to actually enjoy vacation. They are amazing and our dogs were very well cared for.”


“We were having a hard time finding someone through Rover who was available to help watch Bentley, but Elizabeth was super accommodating and took in Bentley even though she was already watching another dog (she had the owner's approval for Bentley to join). From our first interaction, we knew Bentley was being left in great hands. She's very friendly, attentive, and does her best to maintain your dog's normal schedule. Not to mention Bentley had the best time with her dog Sprinkles, and loved sitting out back with her. We received updates and pictures as requested, and could tell Bentley was having a blast. Anytime we are in the area again, we will definitely be reaching out!”

“Sam was an excellent sitter for my dachshund. I received lots of updates (even from a creek!), and he seems to have had a lot of fun. I can tell he enjoyed staying with Sam and I will definitely bring him back :) 5 stars all around”

“Kristin and her family were awesome. Kristin sent pictures of our furry loved one assuring us that she was doing well and had settled in nicely. We are so grateful for her loving and gentle care.”

“Erin was an awesome sitter. She watched our golden retriever for a couple days and had a fantastic setup; Giant fenced in backyard with a pool and other dogs that got along really well. She updated us with pictures and was very easy to communicate with. Dog must have had a blast because she was exhausted when we picked her up. Will definitely return if in the OBX area!”


“I cannot say enough good things about Theresa and her family. The next time I am anywhere near the OBX, I will definitely be going back to Theresa. I found myself in a tough situation where I needed a very last minute dog sitter for my less than two-week old rescue pup, Lilah, who was also on meds at the time. As a new dog owner + an owner of a dog I didn't know that well, I was obviously very nervous to be leaving her. Upon arriving to her house, I could see that Theresa and her family would provide the highest care for Lilah and make her one of their own for the weekend—that they did and I'm pretty sure Lilah had the time of her life. Lilah has severe separation anxiety, EXTREMELY high energy as a young pit/boxer mix, and is still working on her dog socialization skills, but they were absolutely fantastic in working with all of her quirks and needs throughout the weekend. They also have an amazing, massive fenced in backyard that was perfect for her energy needs, and it was great that she got in some socialization with their sweet dogs. Their patience, attention, and care with Lilah left her a better pup then when I dropped her off. If you're anywhere near the OBX, Theresa is definitely the way to go.”
“Copper had a great time with Taylor and her animal family! He was zonked right after we got home from having so much fun! She sent me plenty of pictures and videos while I was away of Copper to ensure me he was loving it!! Would definitely recommend.”

“Flannery was wonderful! She was able to take my pup pretty last minute and was very communicative while I was away. Titan was very well cared for and I received photo updates frequently. Will definitely trust her with my fur baby any time!”

About: 40+ years’ experience caring for and loving dogs of all ages. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior dogs and even those in their prime with plenty of energy. I am experienced with administering medicine if needed and caring for those with special needs. My husband and I have always had our own fur babies (toy and standard poodles), but do not have any currently. Can host only NON-SHEDDING BREEDS, due to family allergies. Must be house broken/trained (to potty outside), with the exception of puppies. I am retired, so I’m always here to give extra cuddles, potty breaks, play time and walks. I really love their company! Tell me their routine while at home with you and I will do my best to ensure it stays the same when in my care. We have a large fenced yard with shade in a small and quiet subdivision. Our home is two story so plenty of room for playing and naps. If they do not care stairs, I will ensure stay on the main floor. Our neighborhood is perfect for walks. I have crates if they are crate trained and you prefer that, but that is not necessary unless that is your preference. Being on the furniture or bed in our home is fine with me too. I give extra special attention if they are nervous for any reason such as thunderstorms, loud noises (such as fireworks on a holiday). I am very attentive and adapt to small things such as if they just don't like going out in the rain. I always send daily updates including photos, videos & text throughout their stay.
About: I’ve had dogs in my home my entire life and have always been an animal lover ever since I was a child! A fun little backstory about me...most teenagers get jobs to have money to go to the mall or whatever it is that they want to do, well my goal was to save up all the money I made and get my own puppy. That was one of the best things I ever did, I had her for 16 years. Other than having dogs all my life, I also have kennel technician and veterinary assistant experience. Before I moved back to North Carolina, I was working the front desk at a non profit animal hospital. I feel that I am a very genuine and good hearted person. I am willing to walk/jog/run/play fetch, honestly, I will do pretty much anything to make them happy while you’re away and would love to build a relationship with your fur baby!! I’m a stay at home mom, so my schedule is pretty open every day!♥️. It’s just my 4 year old and I until about 4pm Monday-Friday, so as long as your fur baby is good with kids anytime from early morning until then works! After 4 I have open availability without him (incase your baby isn’t good with kids). My weekends are generally 100% open so I’d love to help in any way that I can! Hope to hear from you!! 🤗 I can care for your pet(s) in my home or yours. Whichever you prefer. I promise I will always make sure that they feel comfortable, loved, and happy.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Powells Point
Rose took wonderful care of our very anxious Mini Australian Shepherd, Louie, over the past five days. From the moment we left him with her, we felt completely at ease knowing he was in such caring and capable hands. Louie had an absolute blast during his stay, and his anxiety was remarkably well managed, which is no small feat. It was clear that Rose gave him the attention, patience, and affection he needed to feel comfortable and happy. We couldn’t be more grateful for the peace of mind she gave us while we were away. We highly recommend Rose to anyone looking for exceptional pet care, and we will absolutely be booking with her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Powells Point on Rover is $77.7 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 45 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Powells Point. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter 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.
Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local 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 Powells Point 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 Powells Point.
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 Powells Point 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.
