“Kelsey and Malcom took great care of Macey. They sent me pictures and gave me updates on her throughout my time away. Macey seemed to have a great time, she did not want to leave home. Would recommend 10/10”
“She took such great care of my baby boy, always sent pictures and videos to let me know he’s doing well! I will absolutely be bringing him back to relax in his new home with his new friends :)”
“Best peace of mind I could have asked for as an anxious dog mom lol. From the beginning of booking, to the arrival, actual stay, and pickup, Maria was so amazing! She’s so nice, informative, laid back, and I can tell she really cares for animals. I’ll definitely be rebooking in the future! Again, Maria thank you so much!”
“Arya is a very attentive, experienced, and caring dog sitter. She took amazing care of my dog, sharing updates throughout the stay and going on lots of walks. My dog can be a bit anxious during stays and Arya quickly made her feel welcome and comfortable in her home. Would very much recommend to anyone looking for pet care.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our sweet girl, Luna! From the moment we dropped her off, we knew she was in the best hands. Claudia, her husband, and even her parents treated Luna like she was part of their own family. She was safe, loved, and had so much fun playing, when she was picked up, she was happy and relaxed. It was her own vacation. Finding someone who provides that kind of genuine care and attention is so rare, and we feel incredibly lucky to have found Claudia. If she’s available, she will be the only sitter we trust to care for Luna from here on out. Highly recommend, almost want to keep her as a secret.”
“We have a somewhat neurotic corgi and both Kristine and her mother Snow were very understanding and patient about her special needs. Kristine was traveling so Snow watched our pup for 3 days and I felt that she genuinely cared for her wellbeing, showed her love and that she was safe while we were away. I would have liked a few more updates, but Snow sent enough that I did know how she was doing and that she was OK.”
“Ryan minded our dog for 10 days & we are thrilled. He put our mind at ease & sent plenty of photos as it’s our first time leaving our dog for an extended period of time. Our flights coming home were delayed which meant we were delayed collected Rua but Ryan was so accommodating and was happy to keep him an extra night. Would definitely recommend him to mind your fur baby”
“Caitlin is soooo amazing! She sent updates, videos, and asked questions. She gave my dog additional dog food because I didn’t pack enough. I will definitely reach out in the future because my dog loved her and she loves my dog 😊”
“Krystal and her family were Wonderful. She took care of our dog during the time that Charlotte had record snowfall and cold weather. A path was cleared for our dog so he could go out in the snow. We came home to a happy and healthy sweet dog.”
“Our dog had never stayed with someone else, and she is a clinger to us, so we were not sure how well she would do. Emily and Tyon took such incredible care of her- she felt right at home playing ball with the kids, cuddling on the couch, and going for walks. We would absolutely use their services again in the future! I can’t recommend them enough :)”
“This was my first time using Rover and I am so happy with my experience. My dog came home very happy and I know he was well cared for with Alyssa. I will definitely use her again!”
“Thank you for taking good care of my Kinsey it was a pleasure I felt good having you to take care of her I felt she was safe and that is what was important to me to have her in a loving and caring home while I was entertaining my grandchildren who were a little afraid of her thank you again”
“Hunter took wonderful care of Margo. As I am new to Rover, she was very organized and responsive which helped tremendously. It is easy to see how much Hunter loves dogs.”
“Heaven sent!! Christal (and her sweet kiddos) were a true blessing. My dog landed in the perfect home while we were vacationing. The communication was prompt, from the moment I requested her services (at 4AM), Christal answered and took in my puppy that same afternoon. He was well cared for, seemed happy with his daily walks and play time. I appreciate the photos I would receive throughout the day. I recommend Christal and will definitely reach out to her when I need a pet sitter. Christal: Thank you SO MUCH! Max sends his love to you and your family!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs, and other pets, my whole life and have always loved helping take care of them. I was a dog sitter when I got out of college and am looking to get back into it before getting a pet of my own. I work from home and have pretty flexible hours! I am also a very active person and would love to bring your pets on one of my daily walks. I live in an apartment that is in a more rural part of the city, so your dog will be walked in quiet neighborhoods and parks. I want to make sure me and my home is a safe space for your pet.
“Dennise was great with my senior pup. Very patient and accommodating. Pretty Boy was very comfortable with her. We will definitely be back for another stay!”
“She took great care of my 8-month-old puppy! She followed his schedule carefully, made sure he was well looked after, and sent frequent photo updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”
“They took such good care of Vivian! I don’t think that she was ready to come home. Their home was perfectly suited for K9 visitors. I only pray that they are available the next time we need a pet 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!

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Stanley is $28 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $25 and $44 per night. 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.
There are 2,430 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Stanley. About 92% of Stanley sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
