“Ms. Sandra was amazing with our cat Midnight! She followed directions precisely and sent updates daily and sometimes twice a day! She put our minds at ease because this was our first time boarding Midnight. She was We will definitely book Ms. Sandra for future stays for Midnight.”
“This was my first time using rover. I am so pleased with Amanda and David. They are great people. I knew as soon as I left that my dog would be in good hands. They sent lots of pictures and updates. I could not imagine finding anyone better.”
“Wes is like a dog whisperer to our Nikko who is typically extremely anxious. But with Wes, he has always seemed comfortable. We’ve been working with Wes for about 3 years and appreciate how he only keeps one dog at a time. And today he really helped us out with a last-minute request. We highly recommend him to care for your pet!!”
“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!”
“Hannah is the best! This was my first time using a Rover and my puppy is only a year old so I was extra nervous about using a service for the first time, but I’m so happy I did because we found Hannah! My puppy was so well taken care of and I got regular updates and photos from Hannah which made me so happy and feel more at ease. I’ve already rebooked her to take care of my little girl again! Thank you, Hannah! 😊”
“Cait-Lynn took amazing care of our dog Rooney! We booked her for 9 nights of boarding at her home. She sent us updates with pictures every day and even a video of him playing! We could tell he had a wonderful time with her and will definitely be using her again :)”
“Anna was amazing!! She sent countless photos, took Vinny on walks, and gave him lots of cuddles!! I would book with Anna again!! I don’t want anyone else to watch my boy.”
“Hunter was very respectful and willing to help out with my pup if he suffered from seizures. Although none occurred, she was reviewing all the notes to make sure she was ready. I am grateful to her willingness to make sure my pup was well cared for. Would book again!”
“We'd never utilized Rover before and we needed a caretaker for same-day. "Will we be able to set up an appointment with a kind sitter on such short notice?", we wondered. Scrolling through those who were available per our schedule, we selected Carolyn, then crossed our fingers that she would respond soon. She responded surprisingly quickly- in fact, Carolyn's communication was efficient and professional from start to finish. Although we were a bit anxious dropping our girl off, we clearly needn't have been worried. At drop-off, Carolyn reached out sweetly to greet our girl, and they appeared to share immediate comfort with each other. The photos we received from Carolyn a few hours later demonstrated to us that everything was going peacefully in our absence. And pick-up, too, was efficiently handled. Overall, we were thoroughly impressed with every single aspect of our experience with Carolyn: we genuinely recommend her, and our girl Lucy gives her a 4-paws-up rating as well. Thanks very much, Carolyn!”
“Julia is very kind and did a wonderful job looking after our 11-year-old dog while we were away for a few days. We did a meet-and-greet to make sure her cat and dog got along. Julia provided daily updates and from the photos he was quite comfy in her home. I highly recommend.”
“Isabella was easy to work with and good to my dog honey? She sent pics during the stay, answered all my questions in a timely manner and was very nice will definitely use her again!!!!”
“Yenny was an amazing sitter!! Walter loved her and all of her friends. She sent me great pictures and updates. And is incredibly responsive! I will absolutely be booking with her again!!”
About: I’ve helped out friends and family with their pets for well over 6 years now. We currently have a pug puppy who loves everyone, and is truly the happiest dog! I currently WFH and spend a large portion of my day at our house to behind with, and thought I might as well open up to caring for others if they need help and their dog would have a playmate at all times with Eddie! I work a WFH schedule and only leave the house in the weekday once or twice in the morning. I then make sure to do walks right after breakfast is served and then walk for about 20 min after. The same gets repeated for dinner times! We also have a fenced yard with a doggy door so there is always access to outside as needed. We have a fenced in yard and a dog who loves to play play play! I am not picky about dogs being on furniture and always have toys out to play with.
“Anthony was fantastic from beginning to end! His dog, Jojo, is very sweet and got along with my dog well. He also sent lots of pictures of my dog throughout my trip!”
“Caitlin was great! She kept me updated and sent pictures daily. My dog also got along great with her dog, and it made me feel better knowing she already had a schedule and would treat my dog as her own. Would absolutely use her again!”

Carolyn was great with my Bryn! She was happy to adapt to fit Bryn’s normal routine and was adaptable taking care of her as an older pup (she doesn’t do stairs well and was happy to carry her up and down the stairs). She also made sure to give her lots of cuddles. Will definitely reach out to Carolyn next time we need a sitter!
Jessyca was so welcoming into her home for me and my dog! It was my first time leaving her for a full week and I know she was so well taken care of. I got daily photos and videos so I knew things were going well! Jessyca was super flexible with me and I will definitely be using her again for all my dog sitting needs :)
Our dog has found his new fun auntie and uncle! Christine and her husband were so warm, loving and genuinely cared for our Robey during his stay. I could see from the regular photos and updates that they made Robey feel at home, took him out for walks frequently, and gave him so many pets and cuddles. I was worried that Robey wouldn’t want to leave, he had so much fun! I can tell that they care for pets out of the goodness of their heart and were so patient and kind. I will definitely be booking them again and soon!
Amy took such great care of my dog while we were on vacation! She was so responsive, easy to communicate with, and very attentive to him. She sent us photos and updates throughout his stay with her, and it was clear he was very comfortable and happy during his time with her. It gave me great peace of mind to know he was well cared for while I was away. I would highly recommend her!
Danielle is a fabulous sitter! I’m so grateful for the wonderful care and attention she gave Bear. She regularly sent thoughtful photos and updates, which gave me peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands while I was away. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, attentive, and responsible sitter!
Our dog had a fantastic time with Bailey while we were away. She was really attentive to his needs and disposition and even helped socialize him with new faces! Bailey sent tons of photo and video updates to let us know our boy was having a good time and was comfortable. And it's clear she loves having dogs around. We'll absolutely be using her again next time we need a sitter!
Charlotte saved us over a holiday weekend! This was our first experience using River and we couldn’t have been happier with the care Charlotte provided for Cleo. We were never worried or stressed about if Cleo was having a good time, she LOVED playing with Shakey. Charlotte kept us updated with lots of photos and videos and was very responsive. Will definitely be booking with her again when needed.
Mia did an amazing job looking after our pup! I met her ahead of time so I understand the ins and outs of her inn, and felt so reassured when it came time for drop off. We received picture and video updates all weekend long and came home to a very happy and tuckered out pup! He’ll definitely be back!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Charlotte on Rover is $46.62 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 2,489 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Charlotte. 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.
94% of Charlotte 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 Charlotte 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 Charlotte 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 Charlotte.
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 Charlotte 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.
