“Susan and her daughters were amazing with our two dogs! I received 15-20 photos a day plus additional videos. The girls looked happy and very well taken care of. They even came home smelling free and clean! Will for sure use in the future and recommend to anyone!”

“Sarah and Erik were amazing. I received several updates with pictures and a video. Kehlani definitely had a fun weekend with her new bestie Rosie, playing chase in the large fenced in back yard. I highly recommend Sarah, Erik and sweet lil baby Gus❤️ I’m happy to know my fur baby will be in good hands when I can’t be home”

“Brad was an excellent dog sitter! Reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring, my dog was happy, well cared for, and comfortable the entire time. Communication was great and I had complete peace of mind. Highly recommend Brad to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter.”

“Jessica was so great with our dog for five nights. Kept us updated with pictures and videos daily. Our dog had a blast playing with her two pups! She has a large fenced in back yard that worked well for our energetic dog. Would highly recommend booking with Jessica!”

“My fur baby was right at home. Aquisha was awesome and made me feel very comfortable with leaving Zeus with her. i didn’t worry about him one bit and she sent me pictures daily.”

“Michael was very easy to schedule with. I am so happy he was available for a last minute trip. I particularly wanted him to watch my pup as he works from home (as I do) which allowed Libbie to feel love and attention at all times. Yes, we all like to spoil our pups!! I have already scheduled my next trip with him as I know she will be well taken care of, exercise is awesome with her own playmate. When I picked her up she was happy and well cared for.”


“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”

“Isabella is an absolute angel! I had just moved across the country and had no friends or family nearby when an unexpected urgent family emergency occurred requiring me to find my sweet Rue a sitter. Isabella was so incredibly kind and thoughtful. She really took care of my pup, so that I could focus on taking care of my human family. I cannot thank her enough. I received multiple daily updates including photos. Isabella responds very quickly and She is extremely easy to communicate and work with. She is honest and transparent. I feel Rue was very well taken care of. I was impressed when Isabella had to step away from the home for a couple hours and she took the time to check up on Rue via home cameras. I have already booked Rue’s next stay with Isabella!”

“We enjoyed boarding our fur baby Roman with Claire! She was very attentive to details and took very good care of him. She sent us lovely pics and prompt updates, we will def book again!”

“I just wanted to say a heartfelt thank you for caring for Finn while I was away. Your kindness, attention, and updates gave me so much peace of mind. It’s clear how much you care, and I’m truly grateful.”


“Monique really saved the day for us! She was communicative, kind, patient, and extremely considerate of our dog’s needs. We had a death in the family that required us to be gone all day and host extended family for the entire weekend. Our dog, Juno really doesn’t do well with strangers (particularly men) and her standard boarding facility had 40 dogs on the waitlist, so we tried another boarder. Long story short, we had to go and pick her up because she was not doing well. Juno is an incredibly anxious dog and Monique was the answer to our prayers. Juno immediately took to her little dog, (which is also rare) and was allowed the freedoms she has at home. At first we were incredibly nervous… leaving our baby with a complete stranger, but Monique was incredible and in the event we ever need this service again, we WILL choose to book with her!”

“Ann is wonderful! She sent us daily photos and updates on how our dogs were doing. They had a blast in the doggy pool, made a new friend, and she even let our puppy try sleeping in the bed and it went really well! We will be using Ann in the future.”
“Frances was FANTASTIC! She accepted our booking very last minute and was so wonderful to work with. She kept us updated with lots of wonderful photos, updates, and great communication. We would most definitely work with her again! Thank you, Frances! You really saved the day!”
“Amelia and Grant were absolutely awesome! From the moment I dropped off my dog Anna, I could tell she was in great hands. They were warm, professional, and clearly experienced with dogs. Anna looked so happy and comfortable in every update they sent, and she came home relaxed and well cared for. It's such a relief to know she's in such loving hands when I'm away. Highly recommend Amelia and Grant – we'll definitely be booking with them again!”

“This was our first time using Joselyn and she was amazing. She sent pictures each day, took Mochi on lots of walks, and to the dog park. Even with me not having good cell service on my trip, I knew Mochi was being taken care of very well. I’ll definitely use her again. Thank you ❤️🐕🦺”

“Inisha is my preferred sitter for Milly Grace, and I am a repeat customer because she consistently provides exceptional care. She is attentive, reliable, and always keeps me updated, which gives me great peace of mind. Milly absolutely loves her, and it’s clear that Inisha genuinely cares about the pets she watches. I always know Milly is safe, happy, and well cared for when she’s with Inisha. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”

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 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 2,381 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.
