“So happy Onyx stayed with this lovely family. Marissa was warm and inviting. She shared pictures of Onyx with us while he was there. I have no complaints and will definitely use them again! If they are available. ☺️”

“Elaine and her family were wonderful. They treated my dogs like their own. Elaine handled my rambunctious 1 year old dog, Annika like a professional dog trainer and Goose, my 4 year old, enjoyed home school with her daughters. Petunia, Elaine's family dog is very sweet and gets along very well with other dogs. I will definitely look to Elaine in the future for any pet boarding needs.”

“We loved Maria. Lucy had so much fun playing with Chewy and Maria took great care of my dog. I highly recommend her. I don't feel bad going on vacation knowing Lucy is having so much fun with her new friends. Thanks so much Maria!!”

“Kordula was great with our puppy it’s obvious she was well taken care of ! We enjoyed the daily update photos to know our baby girl was in good hands ! Highly recommend !!”

“Cyntia is so kind and warm. This was our first time leaving our pup with her but we felt comfortable from the very beginning. Cyntia welcomed us into her home to show us where our girl would be staying and was highly responsive with several updates. Our pup was super happy when we picked her up which tells us she had a wonderful time with Cyntia. Most definitely recommend and will absolutely rebook when the need arises!”

“Alexandria was very accommodating when taking our pup fairly last minute for the night. She kept us well informed with updates and photos throughout, and we knew he was in good hands with her and her own pups. He seemed to have a lot of fun!”

“Our dog Jazzy was very well taken care of! We loved the photos and updates and we appreciate how attentive you were to her tendencies and her personality. She definitely had a great time playing with the other dogs there as well. We will definitely recommend to others and come back!”

“As usual, Lisa was amazing with Molly. It is such a relief when you have to leave and know your fur baby will be well taken care off. I would recommend Lisa to anyone who is looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter for your pet.”


“Hanna was a great host. She took care of my dogs as her own. She would send daily pictures and videos. I would highly recommend her place for dog sitting.”

“Luis was wonderful. He communicated every step of the way. He was kind, knowledgeable and accommodating. I made a mistake and he was more than gracious about it. This was my first experience with Rover and I was extremely nervous. However, I will definitely be looking to work with him again.”


“Sarah is the absolute best! We had a last minute sitter cancellation, and she truly saved the day. Appi Loo settled in right away like she was already at home. We received plenty of photos throughout the day of Appi and the new friends she made, which completely made my day. Knowing she was in a safe, loving home away from home meant everything to us. Without a doubt, Sarah is now our first choice and go-to every time!”

“Johanna and David were amazing. Both of our dogs came home extremely happy! They sent us daily pictures and videos while we were away. Their backyard was plenty big for the dogs to get their energy out. The pool was a game changer for one of our dogs, who love to swim. We will most definitely be booking with them again.”

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Smithfield on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 1,160 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Smithfield. About 92% of Smithfield sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
