“All I can say is that I didn’t know Georgie could possibly be more spoiled than he already was but he is and that is a good thing! Made the entire trip away perfect knowing he was being so loved. Anyone who adores their dog and considers them their baby and not just a pet, do not hesitate to trust Toni to care for them.”
“I highly recommend Caroline! From the moment we met, it was clear that she has a genuine love for animals and a deep understanding of their needs. Caroline kept us updated throughout our time away, sending us regular photos and messages about our furbabies. This not only eased our minds but also showed us how much they were enjoying their time together. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets like family, look no further than Caroline. We will definitely be using her services again in the future!”

“Thank you for being such good care takers! Ann and Jaren always do such a fantastic job at keeping me updated with lots of photos of Lottie while I am out of town. Can’t explain how much that means when away from home. Thank you for taking such good care of her, always! -Anna”
“Absolute best experience! So grateful we found Kali to take care of our pup during vacation. Great communication, and we know Belle was very well cared for! Lots of play time and snuggles. We loved getting videos and updates along the way. Couldn’t have asked for a better place for our sweet girl and we will definitely be sending her back. Thank you! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Fiona was the most relaxed she has ever been on pick up from a sitter so I know she was well taken care of . Terri was very prompt in answering messages . If we are ever in Asheville again I sure know who to request if we need a sitter . I highly recommend Terri .”
“Richard and his family were so nice to meet! I could definitely tell Tivoli felt comfortable with him and company, I’m glad that he had such a great time out on some fun activities too!”
“Erin took great care of our sweet dog, Lily. She was easy to communicate with, replied quickly, and sent pictures to let us know how much fun Lily was having playing in the river with Erin. I will be using her again, soon, and would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“I am so grateful of Vicky’s hard work to help my skittish pup come out of her shell while I was out of town. Vicky was great at communicating and sending pictures throughout the visit! Thanks Vicky!!”
“Willoughby always has the best time at Kristin's! He comes home happy and tired from playing so hard. We love that we know he's in good hands when we go out of town.”
“We had a fantastic experience with Alyssa and her husband Brian! They are sweet, welcoming, and their property is stunning and perfect for pets. They took such great care of our dog Mona and sent us so many pictures and videos throughout her stay. She had so much fun she didn’t want to leave. We would not hesitate to book with them again.”
“Don't hesitate to have Jessica and John watch your pup! Our 8 month old puppy Hazel had her very first stay with a sitter with Jessica and John and I felt SUCH peace of mind while we were out of state on a family trip! They have great energy, a sweet family, and show so much love- it's palpable walking into their house! Our dog is very much a hound and will sniff and puppy chew through anything- she is not able to be off leash yet outside of the house because she has terrible hound recall haha, but Jessica took all of my concerns to heart, followed my very detailed list of Hazel-care, and took GREAT care of her. No issues at all. They are the kindest family! We will absolutely be calling them again for our next pet sitting needs! Thank you, Jessica and fam! We appreciate you taking such good care of Hazel!”
“our little dog 🐕 stayed with Elizabeth for 10 days, she didn’t miss us at all. Elizabeth sent us several pictures. it is so good to know that your dog is happy while you are away. Loullig will stay with her again 🙂.”
About: I have had dogs my whole life. I have experience caring for puppies, elderly dogs and sick/disabled dogs. I can administer medication, if needed. My dogs are our family members and yours will be treated the same. I am currently working from home so your pet won’t be left home alone for very long periods. I am available during the week and weekends including holidays. I have two very sweet and mellow Cavalier King Charles Spaniels to keep your doggie company. They will have access to 2 separate fenced in areas, one with a doggie door. Your dog can be crated or not and are welcome on the furniture with our dogs. Ours sleep in an x-pen together but your dog can sleep where ever it prefers. I want them to be comfortable like it is their own home.
“Jen was wonderful. Went out of her way to make sure the dog would be safe and happy. Bought her a toy, walked her a bunch and sent her home happy and worn out from playing. She was a lovely person, easy to correspond with, and took great care of Flora. Thank you, Jen!”
“Toby had a great weekend with Ali and Penny. Ali took great care of him, gave frequent updates, and went above and beyond in her flexibility and taking care of our boy. Will definitely be asking her to watch Toby again next time I need a sitter.”
“Jose and Maria always take excellent care of my little dog! I receive daily updates including pictures and videos. When I travel, I don’t worry about my little girl because she’s in wonderful hands! Thank you guys!”
“We have used Connie and Ron to keep our Sadie for years. They are wonderful~very caring and provide a great atmosphere and environment for their doggie guests. I appreciate the fact that they sent pictures and videos and always respond quickly to any question or enquiry.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Swannanoa
Chris was a fabulous sitter for our dog when we were away for vacation. We were anxious about leaving our dog for the first time, but Chris made it less stressful, and was very communicative and kind. It was so comforting to see that our dog was having such a fun and comfortable weekend with him! We would recommend his care to a friend, and will be booking with him again when we go out of town.
The best pet sitters! This was our dog’s third stay with Jackie and Sammy and they are wonderful. Our Molly loves them and I can truly feel they love her right back! They communicate often and thoroughly. Enjoy your trip/vacation with confidence that your pup is in capable hands.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Swannanoa on Rover is $43.29 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 367 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Swannanoa. 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.
90% of Swannanoa 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 Swannanoa 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 Swannanoa 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 Swannanoa.
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 Swannanoa 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.
