“Amanda is clearly the biggest dog lover I have ever met. She truly will treat your dog like one of her own. She was really good at understanding my dog’s personality and picked up on his quirks quickly. My dog was well taken care of, loved, and will be a repeat visitor. We are so happy to have found Amanda!!!!”
“I had a work trip and booked last minute. Isabella graciously accepted my booking. She made everything so smooth. Willing to work with my work schedule and deal with a 12-week-old puppy along with her regular bookings. Very pleasant, highly recommend!!”
“This was my first time using Rover to find someone that would look after our pup for the day. Christina was very upfront answered all my questions and concerns. When the day came to meet and drop off our dog, after talking with Christina I felt better. She sent pictures throughout the the and texts to let us know what she and our dog was doing. To make a long story short, things went so well that I asked Christina if she was available for a later date. Our dog liked her that’s all that mattered.”
“Frances was great! She provided several updates via photos and texts during Junie’s stay and that made me very comfortable and appreciative. She seems to really love the animals like they’re her own. We will definitely book her again.”
“My Husky is so loved and well taken care of with Jennifer and Matthew. I work long days, and can trust that she's gotten all her zoomies out and is super happy when I pick her up. That's a huge relief for me knowing she gets her needs met while I'm working.”
“Gabriel did a great job looking after my dog Enzo for two Saturdays for daycare. I received pictures, videos, and even a text with updates on Enzo. I know that Enzo enjoyed his time with Gabriel and family also their retriever.”
About: I have a lovely King Charles myself who is now eleven years old and he absolutely loves having other dogs around! I have had him since he was 2 months old so I learned a lot on training/taking care of a dog as I trained him myself. I am super compassionate towards animals and as I am home full time, your dog will never be alone or unsupervised. I also grew up with two Boxers at my family house so I know how to take care of big dogs as well as the small and medium sized ones. Your dog will definitely feel at home at my home :) I work from home, I will be away only for a couple hours during the day for the gym and running errands. However I adjust my schedule around the potty schedules. I live in an apartment building that's right next to the dog park so we can go play, and I have the sweetest, most friendly dog ever!
“Our dog Hippo loves staying with Amanda and David! They are always thoughtful and flexible and Hippo loves having Oden and the kids around. Thank you and see you again soon!”
“Briana was wonderful. She welcomed Penny so nicely which made it easy for Penny to adjust and not be too nervous. She sent me photos and provided me great feedback about their time together.”
“Coco had SUCH an amazing time and it was clear how well cared for she was! I could tell from the photos she was having the time of her life going for walks on the beach and playing.”
“Rachel is a huge gift from Rover!!!! My work schedule is a bit crazy and very unpredictable and she’s been so kind and understanding. Beyond that my Bodhi boy is always so excited when we pull down her street because he knows he’s going to have a fun day with her and her pup Leo! Definitely recommend this sitter!!!!”
“I had no doubts while Odie was in their care. Constant communication and updates kept me confident in our furry family member's care. Odie was happy upon our arrival for his pickup and I couldn't ask for more in a daycare stay. I wish we lived closer as I would most definitely use them for services again!”
About: I have had a love for animals since I was a child, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. Over the years, I have developed a strong appreciation for animals, their unique personalities, and their individual needs. I am patient, compassionate, and attentive, and I believe every animal deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. My lifelong connection with animals has taught me the importance of kindness, responsibility, and building trust, and I bring that same care and dedication to every animal I look after. I work from home, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I also have a spacious half-acre, fully fenced-in yard where your pets can enjoy fresh air, playtime, and room to explore safely. My flexible schedule and love for animals allow me to create a comfortable, caring environment where your pets can feel right at home while you're away. Safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities when caring for pets. Having loved animals since childhood, I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and treating every pet like family. In my home, I provide a safe, clean, and welcoming environment with a spacious half-acre fenced-in yard for supervised outdoor play and exercise. Since I work from home, I can offer plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision throughout the day. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect their space and follow the owner's instructions regarding feeding, routines, medications if needed, and any special care requirements. I take the time to learn each pet's personality, needs, and comfort level so they feel secure, loved, and well cared for while their family is away. I also believe communication is essential, so I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Stanley is $28 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $37 per day. On Rover, 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 1,683 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Stanley. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Stanley commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
As of October 2026, there are 1,683 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of NC. Enter your address or desired location to see which available sitters are closest to you.
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.
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.
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
