“Susan and her family were amazing with our Penny girl! We loved all the photos and videos each evening. Penny spent Christmas with them and they even bought her a gift because I told them that our girl loves Christmas! I highly recommend having them sit your babies ❤️”
“From the first few minutes of meeting Alison and Richard, we knew they were loving, caring people who would take great care of our boy. Griffin had an absolute BLAST during his stay! I got updates and pictures every day and felt so at ease. He loves Wrigley and Sunny (the perfect play mates and leaders for him), and so do we! We will continue to ask Alison and Richard to watch Griffin for as long as they let us :) I highly recommend anyone use them if they are looking for a fun, caring, home environment for their dog- and stress free for owners- while they are away.”
“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!”
“Jessica was such a pleasant person and took very good care of my boy! She sent pictures and videos and kept me updated on his doings. He doesn't have pet siblings to play with at home so he thoroughly enjoyed being able to use his energy with her dogs! I would definitely trust Jessica to watch my Rocko again!”
“Natalie and her husband took my 3 dogs in literally the day before my family left on a family trip because I had second thoughts of my previous arrangements. They were with them for 9 days. Their home had plenty of space and running room. She also was very quick with responses and sent updates and pictures to let me know how our 3 dogs were doing. I highly recommend and will be definitely using her again!”
“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!”
“Ann is wonderful! She sent us daily photos and updates on how our dogs were doing. They had a blast in the doggy pool, made a new friend, and she even let our puppy try sleeping in the bed and it went really well! We will be using Ann in the future.”
“We’re so glad we found Nancy! This was her first time watching our senior dog, who has a few special needs, and she took such great care of her. She was patient, attentive, and clearly has a big heart for animals. We really appreciated the regular updates and photos, it gave us total peace of mind while we were away. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“My fur baby was right at home. Aquisha was awesome and made me feel very comfortable with leaving Zeus with her. i didn’t worry about him one bit and she sent me pictures daily.”
“Jamie was extremely flexible with dates when watching our pup. We ended up changing our plans midway through our trip, and she accommodated those changes. It made all the difference in our vacation. She provides regular updates with pictures and also gives the pups ample time to play. We will definitely request her again when we are going out of town.”
“First time using Rover and it was an absolutely wonderful experience! Great communication from Monique and she has created a welcoming environment in her home. She took excellent care of our 7 month old puppy and we will definitely use her in the future. Highly recommended.”
“Very commutative Send pictures Very fun going She did great with my lil brook for her first booking really appreciated the over communication with alexis!! She's the BEST 🥰 WILL book again thanks so much!!”
“Michael was very easy to schedule with. I am so happy he was available for a last minute trip. I particularly wanted him to watch my pup as he works from home (as I do) which allowed Libbie to feel love and attention at all times. Yes, we all like to spoil our pups!! I have already scheduled my next trip with him as I know she will be well taken care of, exercise is awesome with her own playmate. When I picked her up she was happy and well cared for.”
“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!”
“Lipika was amazing!! We had great communication with her the entire time of our dog Lokis stay. In all the videos Loki was soooo happy running, playing, and going on walks. I know Loki already misses her friends she made there. Will definitely request Lipika services again!!🤗”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Iron Station on Rover is $36.63 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 2,054 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Iron Station. 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.
95% 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.
