“Lindy was an excellent sitter for my dog, Max. She was very accommodating and even squeezed him in at the last minute over the Thanksgiving break. She was super communicative, sent pictures and messages every day and a couple videos too when I first dropped him off because she knew I was a nervous Mom. She washed his sheet and slobber rags when I picked him up, gave him a refresh and sent him home with some puppy treats! Lindy will be the only person I will leave my Max with if my sister is not available, she was AWESOME!!!”
“Whitney was so great with both Poshka & Kolki. She sent updates & pictures. I felt very calm leaving both dogs with her from the beginning & I could tell they were very happy & well cared for when I picked them up. Will definitely book with her again!”
“Lucia took the absolute best care of my dog! I received daily photos and videos and I could tell that my dog was having a great time with her. I could not recommend her enough!”
“Jessica was great in accommodating drop off and pick up times when it suited me best.. My much loved pup immediately felt Jessica’s great energy, and in no time at all was happily wiggling his tail in approval of the new friend he found. through my the stay, Jessica was always reachable, and I was kept updated on Beamer’s mini holiday :)..will surely book Beamer,s next stay with Jessica.”
“Although this is the first Taylor’s sitting Kiki, I can tell Kiki was happy and comfortable at Taylor’s house and played along with Taylor’s dog, a golden retriever. Taylor’s daily photo and sms update of Kiki’s activities gave my wife and me a peace of mind. We are happy and thankful for Taylor’s care of Kiki. We will definitely ask Taylor for help again when needed.”
“We booked Desiree pretty last minute to board our dog in her home, and we couldn’t be happier! From the beginning, Desiree was super responsive, accommodating, and easy to work with. She kept us up to date on how our girl was doing, and they were clearly having a great time together. I’m not sure Effie wanted to come home! She was clean, happy, and spoiled when we picked her up and we will definitely use Desiree again. 10/10 recommend!”
“Heather is great! This was the first time I had left my babies with someone different and I was a nervous mama, but Heather did send me photos every day of my babies. If you are looking for a well qualified sitter, book it with Heather.”
“Jordan & Paulette were awesome!! They communicated often, sent me pic updates and Duke looked so happy to be there with Jordan and Paulette’s dogs. It’s very hard to find reliable pet boarding that provides you with a peace of mind but this was truly a great experience. I will definitely be bringing Duke back! Thanks so much!”
“Lindsey and Timothy were excellent with my bulldog. My dog had so much fun with their family. I was always updated and given photos and videos throughout his stay. I was quickly responded to with any questions or concerns. I definitely will be using them again and I know that my dog will be excited to see them again.”
“Jackie was so amazing!! She sent so many photos of our pups and even brushed them, gave them a bath and sent them home with some treats and bandanas. She was very communicative and flexible when our travel plans changed. We will 100% be booking with her again!!”
“Elizabeth was so sweet and attentive with Magnum! He had an amazing time at her house, and it gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. I will definitely be using her again in the future!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Carthage
William was great. My husband was completely ill prepared to drop of Duke (I am always the one responsible for this but was out of town already). William didn’t miss a beat and happily provided Duke with all the missing amenities that one should bring 🤦♀️ (bowls, crate, etc). Our dog came back very happy and tired. We also really enjoyed the videos that he sent of Duke! William was easy to communicate with and well prepared for our dog, who is a ball of energy.
William watched my big ol’ GSD X for 5 days straight. Kept me updated with pics throughout the time. Gladly accommodated with giving the last few days of my dogs ear meds. His dogs were great in giving my dog company. Overall, William was a great choice! Will most definitely be using him again if the situation arises.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Carthage on Rover is $33.3 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 306 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Carthage. 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.
96% of Carthage 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 Carthage 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 Carthage 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 Carthage.
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 Carthage 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.
