“"Leaving my dogs behind is never easy, but Mitzi and her family made the experience absolutely seamless and stress-free. From the start, I appreciated her pre-visit requirement to ensure all the dogs got along, which immediately built my trust. Her home was clean, welcoming, and featured a fantastic dedicated backyard area just for the dogs. Throughout their stay, Mitzi kept me connected with daily pictures and updates on how they were feeling and playing. It was heartwarming to see Paisley constantly being held and loved. I was especially touched by how they handled Gucci, who is quite shy. Mitzi captured his journey from nervously hiding under cushions to being completely comfortable on the couch with the family only a day later. Mitzi’s family is incredibly polite, respectable, and friendly. She praised my dogs for being great guests, and the feeling is mutual—I would trust her completely to watch them again. If you are looking for a sitter who truly treats your dogs like family, Mitzi is the one."”
“Laura was FABULOUS with our Chili! She treated him as her own and he has deemed her (As well as her dog!) his new best friends. She is a fantastic communicator and kept us updated with so many pictures and videos while we were away. She has a lovely personality and is most certainly the epitome of a dog person. Thank you Laura!”
“Kelli and her family were so sweet. Katie was so well taken care of and loved cuddling with the family. I didn’t have to worry about anything. They were super accommodating.”
“Dior had a great stay at Marissa & Mosieo’s. They have two small dogs & a fenced in yard so she had play buddies, space & time to run around. Marissa shared a video of pure joy. She made herself at home.”
“Malika did an awesome job with my dog. He’s a big dog and she accommodated him with no problem. She spent time taking him to the park and walks, sent pictures and updates for my peace of mind. I highly recommend her. Thanks again.”
“Luis watched my dog for a long weekend in July 2025. His responsiveness, attention to my dog's routine, and warm and welcoming environment were greatly appreciated. His dog, Elvis, is an absolute sweetie! Luis provided plenty of updates/photos and was very patient when my dog let his puppiness get the best of him. We would definitely use him again!”
“Scott and Heather are amazing with Riggs! We were updated daily with pictures and videos while on vacation and they are always very accommodating with drop off and pick up times. Riggs always comes home happy and tired ;) We will continue to use them for our pet sitting needs!! Thanks again!!”
“Isabel was great! My dog had so much fun at their wonderful spacious house. Pretty sure he got a lot of fetch in, he looked so happy in all of the pics. My dog has alot of energy so I was thankful they were home all day to keep him company and play. They kept me updated with pictures and I felt he was def in good hands. Will book again for sure. Fast response and safe space for the pup equals gratefull!”
“First let me say my review is long overdue. I could not leave a review earlier due to an unexpected medical emergency. However, let me say Hillary & Lucas are GREAT!!! I felt my dog Angel was loved on and cared for. I received messages and pictures. Hillary went above and beyond she even figured out my dog's excessive licking which turned out to be a food allergy. I really appreciate everything they did for my dog. I would not hesitate to leave him with them again.”
“My dog Bonnie has stayed with Sally a couple times and it has been wonderful! She sent lots of pictures and videos and loves on my dog as if she is her own. Her dog Molly is also very sweet and tolerated my dogs puppy energy so well. Sally was also extremely understanding and accommodating when I had a flight delay and couldn’t pick up at the time originally discussed. We will continue to use Sally any time we need a dog sitter!”
“Great experience! Sonya was VERY welcoming to me and Maya (my doggy) and asked good questions. She kept me updated the whole time with pictures and messages. She ensured that Maya was comfortable and made the entire process very easy.”
“My family and I were preparing to head out of town for my birthday when we realized, in the middle of all the planning, that we had forgotten to schedule a sitter for Oakley. Like any dog mom would, I immediately went to Rover and was pleasantly surprised to see several sitters available. I reached out to a few profiles, and Rebecca D. responded right away, which immediately gave me peace of mind. Rebecca was incredibly kind, responsive, and easy to communicate with. We quickly coordinated a plan for dropping Oakley off, and the process was seamless. When we arrived, Rebecca was already outside waiting for us and gave clear instructions on where to park. She even invited us inside, which we politely declined, but I thought it was such a thoughtful gesture. Prior to our arrival, she also shared information about her dog’s temperament, which I really appreciated. Throughout the weekend, Rebecca kept us updated with photos and videos of Oakley, which made us feel so comfortable while we were away. When we picked him up, he was excited to see us, but it was also obvious that he had a wonderful time with her. Oakley came home happy, and we are so thankful for the care Rebecca provided. I would absolutely recommend booking with her!”
“You can really tell this family loves dogs! My two large breed dogs had a great stay with Matt and Sue. They were exhausted when we got home! Matt was very communicative and sent lots of pictures. His kids were very sweet with the dogs too. Highly recommend!”
“Rene took such good care of our sweet pup Archie while we went away for the weekend in the mountains. She sent pictures, videos and updates daily. She spent time snuggling him at night and making sure he had playtime during the day. I felt very reassured and was able to relax and have fun while away. She will be my go-to for future trips!”
“Judy watched Bennie for a long weekend while I was out of town and this being the first time I’ve left him with someone for that long, I was nervous. But Judy was incredibly sweet and so was her puppy. Bennie was well taken care of and I got lots of pictures. She has a very nice fenced in yard and lets the dogs come and go as they please. I will definitely be using Judy again!”
“She was fast , fun, and friendly . Took care of my lil Freedom with ease. She sent pictures and updated me throughout the day.! I will be returning back with her. She has another dog and makes sure yours is included with anything she does.”
“Jill and her family have watched our pup a couple times now and they are absolutely fantastic. They treat your dog like it's their own, and their pup Carolina got along with ours super well. They have a large and safe yard for the dogs to play in and we get plenty of updates. We'll definitely be boarding with them again!”
“For the weekend of March 20-22, we had such a good experience with Carlita watching our Lewey. You always feel a little nervous leaving your dog with someone for the first time, but she took good care of him. We so appreciated the regular updates of how he was doing. She kept us posted on his eating, playing and potty breaks so that we would know how he was doing and adjusting to a new environment. She took him on regular walks, ensured that he had playtime, and it was a plus that he had two other pups to play with. Carlita is professional, friendly and warm, and we would definitely recommend her. Thank you, Carlita, for taking time with Lewey while we were away.”

As always, Miss Molly had a wonderful weekend stay with Krisztina. Krisztina always sends a photo less than 30 minutes after drop off, just to let you know that your pup is settling in. Great communication and let us pick up Molly after a late flight back home. Thanks for looking after our girl.
Chloe and her family watched Shadow for me while we were on a road trip. He seemed to like them right away and got along with their dog also. She was kind and easy to talk to. Was able to make Shadow feel safe and welcomed. Responsive to requests for more photos and gave daily updates. Thanks for taking care of my big boy.
Amber was amazing! I could tell as soon as I dropped my pup off that she had a lot of experience with dogs and getting them acclimated to a new environment. I knew my pup was in a great place. Her communication was great and she was flexible with me when I told her my schedule had changed a little.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Wendell on Rover is $40 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 1,679 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Wendell. 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.
97% of Wendell 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 Wendell 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 Wendell 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 Wendell.
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 Wendell 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.
