“Aimee was great! Very responsive, proactive with updates (and lots of pictures), and had a variety of activities for our dog to do at her place. She’s certainly our first choice for a local dog sitter going forward.”

“Romeo always has a wonderful time with Chantel. He was sad to leave her. I have no doubt my little guy is being cared for and loved when he's away from me. If you are looking for a great person and dog lover, Chantel is it, no question.”

“Took a last minute booking after our scheduled boarder decided that our dog was too much. Our dog had no issues with her at all. She saved us from being in a bad position and handled our dog who doesn't like being without us without issue for five days.”

“We are extremely happy with the care Maria gave our two fur babies. My fur babies received belly rubs, play time with her 2 children and her fur baby. They loved to run in her big enclosed yard. She administered monthly medicine, gave them baths and even washed their bedding. I received videos and pictures of their daily routine. She took care of them as if they were her own. Maria is awesome. I definitely will be using her again. I highly recommend her. Thank You Maria. ❤️”

“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.”

About: For the past year I've been pet sitting for friends and clients. I take care of the feeding, walks, and playtime, and I stick to whatever routine your pet is used to. I set my own work hours, so it's pretty easy for me to fit pet care in. I'm usually free weekday evenings and weekends and I'm happy to plan visits around whatever your pet's used to. Since I have two dogs myself, I know all about that stuff. You can be assured that your dog will get his food on time, he will get enough potty stops and play as well. My backyard is fenced / I walk him always on the leash, and I will be checking all the doors and gates each time.

“I am so glad that I reached out to Jennifer. I immediately knew from her profile that she would be such a good sitter for our dog. When we talked for the first time via video, she was so warm and friendly. She asked the necessary questions, talked about the care she gives and more. Lewey stayed with her for 5 days. I had no worries that he was in good hands. He so enjoyed his time with other dogs who were there, a large backyard to run around in and he immediately took to Jennifer the moment he saw her in person. I definitely recommend her. Thank you, Jennifer for your services. We will definitely request you again soon.”

“We were extremely happy with the care Julia gave our very timid pup.  Julia was very willing to set up a puppy playpen for our little guy.  She was very patient  with him and eventually he came out of his safe space playpen. Julia sent pictures and text updates every day.  By the end of his stay our pup seemed comfortable in her home and would go outside with her.  Julia's patience with our timid pup was above and beyond.  Her updates a picture helped to reduce our concerns of leaving our pup behind. We found him happy and healthy upon our return.  We will definitely look to request Julia again.”

“Leaving Gwen is always stressful, but they took excellent care of her and made the whole experience so much easier. They were attentive, loving, and incredibly kind from start to finish. They kept me updated with great communication and lots of pictures, took Gwen on a car ride to the park, even gave her a bath, and treated her like she was part of their own family. The best part was coming home to a happy, relaxed Gwen. I couldn’t have asked for better care and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter.”

Brooke was amazing with our elderly dog, I was very nervous with leaving her for the first time with someone outside of the family for several days while we were on our cruise. Brooke eased our mind and we say immediately that our dog would be just fine once they met. Willow came back smiling and happy!!! Definitely will keep Brooke as her babysitter. :)

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Whitley Heights

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Whitley Heights is $40 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $56 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.

As of November 2026, there are 1,376 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Whitley Heights. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.

95% of sitters in Whitley Heights can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Whitley Heights 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 Whitley Heights.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Whitley Heights. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

You and your Whitley Heights 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.

Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
