“My dog is a little shy/nervous so I was hesitant to leave her with a sitter she didn’t know. But Victor put me at ease, and seeing all the photos he sent of Juni having fun confirmed he was taking good care of her. I’ll be using Victor again the next time I travel.”
“Our pup was very well cared for while we were gone. I would 100% recommend them to any friends with animals and we will be coming back! They have a beautiful house and yard. Our dog was beyond happy at their house! Thank you!”
“Alexandra was amazing with my dog! I got pictures every day and I could tell he was having a blast every day. He got lots of love and exercise. I’ll definitely be boarding my dog with Alexandra again.”
“Haley was just outstanding. What was supposed to be 1 overnight turned into all week and Haley was very accommodating. Finn loved his stay there and I would certainly recommend. Kept us up to date each day on how he was doing and how he was interacting with other dogs. Thanks so much.”
“Lucia is a very kind person and a great sitter! She has a large, fenced-in yard, two small dogs that got along great with mine, and gave them plenty of attention and care. Highly recommended!”
“Natalie was great. She took care of my toy poodle for 4 days. She sent numerous amounts of pictures and updates during the time she had him. He was happy when I picked him up as well. Would definitely rebook and recommend.”
“Mary did a wonderful job with our dogs! She has a nice big fenced in yard which was perfect for them! Our dogs arrived happy and left happy! Mary was accommodating to all of our pets needs. She sent us a few pics of them while we were away as well. I was not worried about our pet our all while in her care. Communication and response time with her was excellent!”
“Sadie always enjoys her time with your family. You take care of her like you would if she was a member of your family. We will remember your family in the future when we need a sitter.”
“My dog has high anxiety with people he doesn’t know. I’ve tried a lot of options for his care without much peace of mind. I decided to try in-home care with Heather. She sent photos and videos everyday my boy looked so happy! She was organized and a great communicator. I trust her. Finally, peace of mind!”
“Taylor was wonderful to work with when it came to having someone watch our boys while we spent time with family at the beach. She answered any questions I had, and reassured me that my boys would be loved and taken care of. She sent plenty of updates during the day and before bed, along with some photos, this was greatly appreciated as it helped me relax and enjoy my time with family. Ace & Loki can get pretty anxious when they are away from us, and with someone they aren’t familiar with, but Taylor was able to get them settled and in a good routine very quickly. Hopefully she will still be working through Rover in the future next time we need someone to watch our boys when we visit my in-laws again!”
“Kat took such great care of Tux! She came home happy and so much less stressed than when she has to stay at a boarder. She sent me pictures of the fun and cuddles they shared. I will definitely rebook for our next weekend trip!”
“Thank you for taking such great care of Wilmer! I really appreciated all the photo updates and seeing the fun walks he was going on. It made me feel happy to see updates and reassured while I was away knowing he was in good hands. Would definitely book again.”
“Rebeka was absolutely amazing with our dog. He was new to us and we had never boarded him before. She took the time to meet with us beforehand to make sure it was a good fit. She sent multiple updates and photos to help put me at ease. She listened to our requests and did a phenomenal job. I will definitely use her in the future!”
“Ana was fantastic! She was very quick responding when trying to book a sitter. She is very flexible in drop off and pick up times, as well as setting up a meet and greet before hand! My 50lb German shepherd had a great time and would absolute rebook with her!”
“Maria was amazing!! This was my first time using her so the fact that she allowed me to do a meet and greet ahead of the scheduled stay so my fur baby could warm up to her, really put my mind at ease. I appreciated the daily updates. I could tell by the pictures that Milo felt loved and right at home😊 Would definitely use her services again!!”
“Camille was absolutely amazing! So much so my dog wasn’t ready to come home lol. She was extremely accommodating, responsive and kind. I truly know she made my dog feel home away from home and we are so grateful she was available and will book again and again!”
“Ashley is phenomenal! She and her family took such great care of my dog and made sure I felt at ease with everything she was doing and recommending. I will definitely book with Ashley more often.”
About: I became a dog mom at 19, and have been dog-sitting off and on ever since! While the extra income is always nice, I mainly do it to prevent coming home with a new puppy every week. I treat all the dogs I meet like they're my own and give them as much love as I do to my own babies - an 11 year old Lab mix and 6 year old German Shepherd! They both have loved every dog I've ever had staying at my house. I'm comfortable with all breeds and all ages, and have no problem giving medications if needed. I am available during the daytime for long walks and have a very flexible work schedule, which means a lot of play time for your pup! I’m currently working remote part-time and have the flexibility to choose my own hours, which means I have plenty of spare time during the day to spend with your pup! I treat your pets as if they are my own, giving them the same amount of love and attention if not more! I always make sure they are well cared for and that the client comes home to a clean house and happy pets!
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Southern Pines is $35
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Southern Pines
Annie gave my two Poms the sweetest home away from home. They both have very *unique* personalities, and we could see immediately from her pictures that they had no problem being themselves and I couldn’t be happier that we found such a good match - we’d love it if she would watch them the next time we go away. Thank you Annie and family, and of course Pearl too, for being so welcoming and taking such good care of our Pom Squad.
We recently had our dog Ruby stay with Maria, and we couldn’t be happier with the care she received! From the moment we dropped Ruby off, we knew she was in wonderful hands. Maria treated her like family, giving her plenty of love, attention, and playtime. Ruby also had a great time with Maria’s sweet little dog Remy — they became fast friends, which made us feel even more at ease. Maria kept us updated with photos and messages, which was such a thoughtful touch and let us relax knowing Ruby was happy and comfortable. It’s clear how much Maria truly loves and understands dogs. We highly recommend Maria to anyone looking for a kind, reliable, and caring sitter. Ruby will definitely be excited to go back and spend more time with Maria and Remy!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Southern Pines on Rover is $39.96 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 419 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Southern Pines. 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.
94% of Southern Pines 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 Southern Pines 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 Southern Pines 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 Southern Pines.
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 Southern Pines 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.
