“Alison and Richard did a great job caring for our fur baby! Our flight was delayed and they allowed for a later pick up than expected in the evening, which was much appreciated.”
“Frances was a terrific host to our Golden Retriever! She maintained steady communication and lots of pics throughout the week. Our dog upon first visit, ran to her immediately like they had been longtime friends. She felt safe with her! Thanks very much Frances - we appreciate your wonderful care!”
“Jessica took such great care of our doodle. I hope to use her again if the need arises. She provided daily updates and videos of our Bailey and it was easy to see she was happy and comfortable with Jessica and her pets. She was super to communicate with and responded quickly. It was such a relief to know Bailey was in good hands while we were away. You can tell Jessica enjoys caring for your furry loved ones. So glad we found her!”
“Sarah and Erik were wonderful! Our lab Smoky stayed with them for several days and no doubt had a great time. They have a very safe and welcoming space and a great yard for larger dogs who love to play, and their sweet pup Rosie is just the icing on the cake! Would definitely recommend 😊”
“This was the second time Scout stayed with Megan and she had a great time. Megan kept me updated with daily photos and let me know how Scout was doing. I’ve already booked our next stay with Megan and her family.”

“As always, Adger was so well taken care of and loved on! Ashley and Robert's house is definitely one of his favorite places to be. So thankful for you two. (and Kodi and Kali!)”
“Abby really enjoyed her time with Susan and her family and I felt completely comfortable that she was well taken care of. From the pictures and the videos we received it was clear Abby was getting the love and exercise she needs. Susan’s girls were so friendly and showered Abby with love and attention from the initial meet and greet. I would definitely ask Susan to sit for Abby in the future.”
“We will definitely use Ronald's services again. He kept us updated by sending pictures consistently. Jax has been so well behaved since we picked him up. Ronald treated our Jax like one of his own!”
“Nancy was a blessing 🙏We were so fortunate to be able to find her. She and her family looked after our precious little fella impeccably! She met us straight away to see if we were a good fit and kept communicating throughout with photos and comments. He adjusted so quickly and fit in like part of their family. I could see from the photos how much care and love they gave him and the freedom he always had to roam in the garden, rest anywhere and the safety he felt with them be g at home! Thank you again Nancy! I’m sure Corey is looking forward to kisses and cuddles again soon 🫶🤗🥰”
“Monique was an amazing sitter for my diva dog, Lulu. She was so warm and friendly during our meet & greet. She was extremely patient and loving with Lulu's quirks. I loved the pictures and communication she sent during Lulu's stay. Thank you Monique, we will definitely reach out again in the future!”
“It was great having her as my sitter. She really was an awesome great help for me in the spare moment of an emergency care for my dog. I would consider her to everyone pet owner I know. She sent me pictures show how much fun Rocco was having and happy he was. Nicole is amazing. My dog just fell in love with her and wanted to go back. Thanks Nicole. I will be reaching out again soon some time.”
“Alexis was great with Gus. She provided great photos and was very understanding of my puppy. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for great pup g care!”
“This was my first time using Rover and Shannon was amazing! I got several updates and pictures of Moose throughout the day, and I had peace of mind that he was in great hands while I was away. I would recommend Shannon to anyone in need of a sitter and will use her in the future as well! Great experience!”
“I wish I could give more than 5 stars! Amelia and Grant were absolutely amazing. I was a little nervous since our pup can be anxious when we leave him, but from the very start they made my husband and me feel so comfortable — and more importantly, they spoiled our pup with so much love and care! We can’t recommend them enough!”
“Couldn't be happier with the care our dog received. They kept us updated with photos and messages, and it was obvious our dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. They treated him like one of their own, and we came home to a relaxed, happy pup. It's such a relief to know we have someone we can completely trust. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a dependable, caring dog sitter, and we'll definitely be booking with them again!”

Buddy seems to have had a great time with Amanda and her family. The fenced in yard was a must for him and he enjoyed being able to run. She says he enjoyed her dog as well. He has slept since he has been home so i know he had a great time! He got plenty of exercise and love. High recommendations for this family
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 for Dog Boarding in Stanley on Rover is $26.75 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 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 August 2026, there are 2,386 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 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.
95% of Stanley 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 Stanley 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 Stanley 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 Stanley.
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 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 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.
