About: Hi! I'm a dependable and caring animal lover who treats every pet like they're my own. I've had a few pups of my own over the years, including my precious baby, Marlowe, who has taught me so much about patience, training, and the unconditional love our pets give us. Whether it's a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight stay, my goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I'm attentive to each pet's unique personality and routine, and I'm happy to follow any special instructions, including medications, feeding schedules, and exercise needs. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family member, and I would be honored to give them the same love, attention, and care l'd want for my own pets. I'm currently a stay-at-home wife, so I'm home most of the day and able to give your pet lots of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship. Dogs in our care are rarely left alone for more than 2-4 hours. Cur home is a cozy, pet-friendly single-family home with a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and explore. We have a 2-bedroom, 1-bath home that's clean, comfortable, and designed with our own dog, Marlowe, in mind. Marlowe is an almost 2-year-old Australian Shepherd/Golden Retriever mix who is incredibly friendly and loves meeting other dogs. We allow her on the furniture and bed because she's part of our family, but she usually chooses to sleep in her crate with the door open. We also take safety seriously by "Marlowe-proofing" areas of our home and limiting access to certain rooms when we're away. It's just my husband and me in the home, creating a calm, low-stress environment for visiting pets. While our neighborhood isn't ideal for long walks, we love taking dogs on walks in downtown areas for new sights, smells, and exercise. Whether your pup enjoys playtime in our fenced yard or relaxing indoors, they'll receive plenty of love, attention, and care while they're with us.
“Ashley was so great! I just moved to the area but previously used Rover in TN. Ashley was very responsive and kept me updated with how Brody was doing with text and photos. It’s so comforting having someone so attentive keep my boy while I’m out of town. I will definitely be using Ashley again in the future! Thanks so much ?”
“Charles was fantastic with Frankie. He was easy to communicate with both before and during the stay, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. He even sent us a picture while we were away, which we really appreciated. Frankie was clearly well cared for, and we would absolutely book with Charles again. Highly recommend.”
“Rhona was great! She took care of Zeus like he was her own and sent updates and pictures. She has a perfect fenced in backyard and Zeus had a blast running around and playing. I highly recommend Rhona's as the place to board your pet.”
“I can’t say enough about the excellent care my baby receives from Carrie. Gravy just loves to spend time with her and comes home so happy. I always feel at ease leaving her and know that she is in the best of hands ❤️.”
“Jamie was beyond accommodating when our flight plans changed and we had to keep our sweet Laney with her an additional night than originally planned. She was very responsive and communicative and diligently sent us lots of wonderful photos of our pup playing fetch, walking, and playing with her dog. Her large backyard is perfect for dogs who need to run during the day. We hope to use her again in the future!”
“Itzel was so great with our pup. She was very communicative and sent pics every day. We could tell she loved him and he was taken care of while he was there. Thanks so much!”
About: I have spent my whole life around dogs. My dad was a dog trainer in Alaska so I was able to learn a lot from him over the years. Since then my family has had our own dog which sadly passed away a year ago after 12 sweet years together. We have dog sat for friends and family over the years as our home makes a great space for dog sitting, but have not professionally dog sat before until now. We work from home so your pup will rarely be on their own. We also have a fenced back yard so they can play outside safely! We have three daughters that love to play with dogs so they will keep them perfectly entertained. We enjoy family walks in our neighborhood that your pup would join us on! We currently have no other pets after our sweet dog passed away a year ago. We miss having a dog in our home but aren’t ready for a new permanent pup so Rover seemed like a wonderful idea for our family. Your dog will be treated as our own with our girls being able to play with your pup in our fenced back yard.
“Anamika truly treats your pets like her own. Our pup had an upset tummy while we were gone and she went the extra mile to make him bland food and gave us updates throughout the day for the length of our trip. She’s truly the best!”
“Jasmine was the absolute best. I would totally recommend her for anyone looking for a pet sitter. I have never used a pet sitter before and Jasmine made me feel completely confident that my pup was going to be safe and comfortable with her. She provided photos to allow us to see how the puppy’s day was going and my puppy looked very happy and calm. I am glad that this site has brought me to her. I am very satisfied with the service I received. Great job Jasmine I truly appreciate you.”
“Norma is awesome!! She is so accommodating to your schedule, keeps you well informed with lots of pictures and status updates and clearly loves what she does! Baker made some great new friends and came home exhausted after his long weekend with Norma.”
“Lipika did amazing with my sweet dog! She was really good at sending updates daily and I could tell my dog was happy while staying with her. Would totally leave my dog with her again.”
“Emilia and my pet hit it off from the beginning which is a big deal because my dog can often be scared of strangers. She is very patience and kind; I very much appreciated the regular updates that included pics. Emilia took such good care of my dog, I will definitely reach out for her services in the future!”
“Mike has watched my 2 dogs twice now and I feel they are very well taken care of. I get daily updates with pictures of my dogs out walking and getting play time. I would highly recommend Mike if you need a pet sitter, we will definitely use him again. Thank you.”
“Omg Shaunice saved me! I learned that my current sitter was leaving the state and couldn't keep Poundcake. I was worried I wouldn't find a sitter in enough time. She came through and was amazing with my pup. She was caring and sweet with him and sent tons of pics and videos. The pics were AMAZING. It was like Poundcake was having a photoshoot. He got to go to the dog park and make new fur friends. I am excited to have found my new pet sitter and will definitely book again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Kannapolis
I could tell Pip had a wonderful week with Chase and his dogs based on the smile he came out of the house with. Being able to have someone reliable who I know will take great care of my dog when we are away is so important for peace of mind and we found that with Chase.
Erica is absolutely wonderful! Our 5-month-old puppy stayed at Erica’s house for 5 days and had an amazing time. It was clear from the start that Erica genuinely loves dogs and has a lot of experience caring for them. She is incredibly knowledgeable, attentive, and patient, and she made us feel completely comfortable leaving our puppy in her care. Throughout the stay, Erica kept us updated and made sure our puppy was happy, active, and well cared for. Our puppy came back healthy, relaxed, and clearly enjoyed the experience. We would absolutely trust Erica again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and experienced dog sitter!
Kelly is the absolute best, she gets pets different personalities and adapt to their needs. She constantly send update pictures and I know my Pugsley is extremely happy when he spends time with her. This is his third time, until my wife and I go on an another trip.
Jasmine was the absolute best. I would totally recommend her for anyone looking for a pet sitter. I have never used a pet sitter before and Jasmine made me feel completely confident that my pup was going to be safe and comfortable with her. She provided photos to allow us to see how the puppy’s day was going and my puppy looked very happy and calm. I am glad that this site has brought me to her. I am very satisfied with the service I received. Great job Jasmine I truly appreciate you.
Kimberly was awesome! I was nervous at first, but her friendly and professional behavior put me at ease. She has a beautiful clean home that my dog settled in like it was hers. She has two fur babies of her own. I wasn't sure how my dog would take to them; however, Kimberly handled it beautifully. In the end they all became good friends. 😄 She sent text, photos and video to help put our minds at ease while we were out of town. She was very gracious when storms and fog delayed our arrival time. I will definitely bring my dog back to her.
Courtney watched our puppy on VERY short notice over the Thanksgiving holiday when our Airbnb got double booked and our plans wouldn’t allow us to bring our puppy. She was fantastic with him and has her whole house and yard setup to care for animals. Recommend 💯. Thank you, Courtney!!
Reid really enjoys staying with Emilia and hanging out with her dog Amora. He has stayed with her multiple times and this time we had some travel issues which required multiple schedule changes and she was always willing to accommodate. Really appreciate her flexibility!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Kannapolis
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Kannapolis on Rover is $33.3 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 .
As of July 2026, there are 2,135 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Kannapolis. 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 Kannapolis 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 Kannapolis 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 Kannapolis 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 Kannapolis.
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 Kannapolis 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.
