About: 👋🏼Hi! Thanks for taking the time and swinging by! My husband and I know what it means to find someone you can completely trust to care for your pet(s) and feel at ease knowing that they will be taken care of. We each grew up with dogs and also had different kinds of pets (hamsters, lizards, fish, turtles, cats, dogs, birds) while the kids were growing up. 🐾We offer boarding, daycare and drop-in visits, ensuring your pets get consistent care tailored to their routine. 🏡We live in a house with a secure, fully fenced-in backyard where your dogs can safely play, stretch their legs, explore and do their business. 🐶🐶We are the proud pet (grand)parents of two sweet, 15-year-old sister dogs. Because they are seniors, they cannot hear very well anymore. They are very gentle, and a little shy but friendly. 💖Your pets will find a peaceful, patient, and understanding environment here. Whether your pet is staying at our house or we need to drop by, they will receive attentive care. We look forward to meeting you and your pets! We are both always at home during the daytime. Michael works from home. We usually try and go to the gym early in the mornings. 🌳We have a nice sized well manicured back yard that is fenced in. There is also plenty of room in the house for more dog beds or crates if you need to bring those.
“We love leaving our pets with Tonya! She communicates quickly and clearly and is so nice to our dogs. They feel comfortable there and I know they are being spoiled! Thank you so much for taking such good care of them!”
“Nicholas was great with watching Ruby. He communicated well, sent us several pictures during her stay and was sure to get her exercise. Thanks a ton for being so thorough and thoughtful in caring for our girl!”
“Another successful stay with Allison. My dog was so excited when I dropped him off, which tells me he really enjoys staying there. Allison was very accommodating and gave great updates!”
“Christina took great care of Chase while I was away on a quick weekend trip. She sent regular updates and photos, and Chase looked happy and completely at ease during his stay. I really appreciated her going the extra mile by offering to drop him off—such a thoughtful gesture. Highly recommend and would definitely book with her again!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Jayda was absolutely amazing with our Chillipeppers! 🐾❤️ She cared for her in her home for 3½ days, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Knowing Chillipeppers was in a safe, loving, and comfortable home gave me such peace of mind. Jayda was attentive, caring, dependable, and treated Chillipeppers like she was her own. You can truly tell when someone genuinely loves animals, and Jayda definitely does! I would absolutely trust her with Chillipeppers again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will love and care for their fur baby while they’re away. Thank you so much, Jayda! 🐩💕”
“I couldn't have asked for any better care! My dog was relaxed and happy staying with Joseph and Christine. They gave her the meds she needed and provided love, care, and exercise. In addition, I was provided with daily pictures and updates - more than once a day. Best dog care ever!”

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.
96% of sitters in Iron Station 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 Iron Station home-away-from-home, 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 , 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 .
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.
