“Alison and Richard were great with our puppy and made us feel so much better about leaving him for the first time! They welcomed him into their family and made him feel at home. They have a beautiful home, nice fenced in yard, and 2 sweet dogs of their own that also welcomed our pup! We loved getting pictures to see how he was doing, and have already booked them for another weekend 2 months from now!”
“We will definitely use Ronald's services again. He kept us updated by sending pictures consistently. Jax has been so well behaved since we picked him up. Ronald treated our Jax like one of his own!”
“Francis did an AMAZING JOB with Empress. She kept me up to date on her activity. She allowed lots of time outdoors to play and stayed with my regularly scheduled program with feeding and also modified booking to allow Empress to stay an additional day once i informed her that i wasn't going to be back in time for our sheduled pick-up. She was very flexible and accommodating. I will definitely reccommend Francis for others. Also, i will be returning in the future as a customer. Great Job!!!!!!”
“Rachel did a great job loving on and taking care of our pup. You can tell she loves dogs. She was great about sending pics and letting us know how he was doing while we were away. We felt relieved he was in good hands while we were on vacation. We will definitely use her again on our next trip.”
“Amelia and Grant took the best care of our baby for over a week! They sent pictures and videos of him cuddled up with them, playing, and going for walks. I know he had a wonderful time! Our dog can be nervous of new people, but he immediately warmed to them in the meet and greet. They have a beautiful home and neighborhood. They took note of all his special quirks haha. Our pup will definitely love to visit them again!”
“Amy is a an amazing caretaker and pet lover! Her home is an awesome environment for my pup and anyone’s! She has several outdoor spaces. My dog loves to be in the sunshine and he can do that and get in the shade if he’s hot or be inside with her while she works at home. He’s been so loved in her care. Amy followed my follow up communication preference so perfectly. I had a very busy weekend so she sent me a couple updates and answered so quickly when I had time to reach out. Amy is the best and she is so affordable. Book her today! I will definitely be back.”
“Sarah & Erik were fantastic with our golden retriever! There was amazing communication and picture updates, which were very appreciated as rhis was his first time staying overnight at someone's home rather than a boarding facility. He came back so happy, sweet, and well cared for. Thank you for everything, we will definitrly be booking again in the future!”
“Kathleen was great looking after our dog and our little dog seemed to really enjoy her stay. She sent pictures daily and kept us updated. She was very accommodating and really went above and beyond. Thanks Kathleen!”
“This was the second time Scout stayed with Megan and she had a great time. Megan kept me updated with daily photos and let me know how Scout was doing. I’ve already booked our next stay with Megan and her family.”
“Brad sent me lots of pictures of my pups having fun with Brad, his wife, and their two pups. I think they were having more fun than I was having while I was out of town. I recommend Brad and would definitely use him again!”
“Courtney was very professional and caring of my standard poodle. She provided updates and pictures every day allowing me to be relaxed about him being in her care. It was a 2 week gig and all went well.”
“It was great having her as my sitter. She really was an awesome great help for me in the spare moment of an emergency care for my dog. I would consider her to everyone pet owner I know. She sent me pictures show how much fun Rocco was having and happy he was. Nicole is amazing. My dog just fell in love with her and wanted to go back. Thanks Nicole. I will be reaching out again soon some time.”
“Camilla was so great with my pup. I received a lot of update pictures and information about her stay. Camilla was flexible with pick up and drop off times as well. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Very grateful for Nancy accommodating my dog and letting him stay! They have an awesome backyard that he loved and lots of toys to play with. She updated me with photos often which I love! It seemed like my dog had such a great time and felt very loved while staying!”
“Caitlin was absolutely amazing! From our very first meet-and-greet, I could tell she genuinely loves dogs and has such a warm, caring energy. I was nervous about leaving my baby, Lexi, with someone new, but Caitlin went above and beyond—she even managed two last-minute walks to get to know Lexi better before her stay. By the time we dropped Lexi off for four days, it felt like leaving her with a trusted friend. Caitlin kept me updated with regular messages, photos, and videos (which almost made me jealous—Lexi was so happy!). She took such great care of my girl, making sure she got plenty of walks, playtime, and even runs. When Lexi was hesitant to eat, Caitlin ran out to get some deli meat to top her food—just one of the many ways she went the extra mile. I can’t recommend Caitlin enough! If you’re looking for a sitter who will treat your pup like family, she’s the one. ❤️🐶”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Iron Station on Rover is $43.29 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 .

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 Iron Station 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 Iron Station 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 Iron Station 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 Iron Station.
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 Iron Station 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.
