“We couldn’t have asked for a better boarding experience for our Goldie, Tracker! From the moment he arrived, he felt right at home with Amanda and her family. He absolutely loved spending time in their large, shaded backyard, and we were convinced he was enjoying a vacation of his own while we were away. Amanda kept us completely at ease, knowing that Tracker was safe, happy, and receiving plenty of love and attention. In fact, our only concern was that he might not want to come home! 😊 Amanda’s boys were incredibly sweet with Tracker and even surprised him with a Cookie Monster plush toy, which has quickly become one of his favorites. Their kindness and genuine affection for dogs truly made this stay special. We are so grateful for the wonderful care Tracker received and will absolutely be booking with Amanda again. Highly recommended!”

“I don’t have enough words to thank Gabriel and Sara for taking such great care of my puppy while we were away! They treated Calleri as their own and truly made him feel like part of their family. You could tell they cared about him and followed all of the instructions we gave them, especially regarding his feeding and nap times. They have great communication and sent us lots of pictures, videos and regular updates, which gave us peace of mind to enjoy our trip knowing that Calleri was in great hands. They were also very flexible with the drop-off and pick-up times, which we really appreciated! Their puppy Charlie is the sweetest! He and my puppy got along so well! Charlie is such a friendly, playful and gentle dog and I was so happy that Calleri had a companion to play with all the time while we were away. I’ve tried a few different dog sitters in the Charlotte area before and I have to say that Gabriel and Sara ARE THE BEST! They truly went above and beyond my expectations. I would highly recommend them and will be booking again!”

This was my first timing booking with Piper and I’ll definitely be using her again! I always get nervous leaving my pups with someone new but Piper made me feel super comfortable by letting me meet her sweet pup Stella and sending me pictures during their stay. They were well taken care of and had the best time with their new friends!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Stanley on Rover is $28 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $25 and $44 per night. sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 2,370 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Stanley. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.

96% of sitters in Stanley can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Stanley home-away-from-home, 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 Stanley.

<b>Tip:</b> 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 Stanley 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 , 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 .

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.
