“Leslie has been the absolute best. She accommodated out ever changing trip plans and flight delays and kept our sweet pup just like one of her own. I cannot express how thankful we are for being so understanding. I recommend Leslie 100x over!”
“If I could give more stars I would! Talk about an amazing family... London made my 2 large fur babies feel like family right from the meet and greet we did with her. She made us feel safe leaving them with her and her family and it was so nice getting to meet everyone that they would be around while we were gone. She catered to there every need...and want lol! We would recommend London to the million degree and look forward to Bear and Freyja staying with her again soon.”

“Shanna was excellent! She is very knowledgeable about dogs and works with them regularly which is a plus! She is an expert in dealing with dogs of all kinds and different temperaments. she takes them on long walks in the beautiful forest where she lives and has a beautiful home that is viable for dogs. She was very detailed in her daily reports of Remi and I was comforted to know that she was with somebody who knows what they are doing!!”

“I want to thank Christal from the bottom of heart for providing Jack with a great environment and lots of love and attention. We all know that when it comes to our pets, we want only the very best. Christal proved to be just that. I cannot wait to use her again.”

“Kayla and Michael did an amazing job taking care of my dog, first for a weekend and then for a week while I was out of the country. They were diligent about giving her medications and providing me updates. They took extra care to make sure she could spend some time playing outside in the morning before it got too hot. They went above and beyond to not only ensure she was comfortable, but to also make sure she had fun. She looked genuinely happy in the photo updates Kayla sent, which gave me peace of mind. She can be a bit introverted but even seemed to make friends with the other dogs. In the future, I will be sure to book way in advance so Nova can stay with Kayla and Michael and their family. Thank you!!”

“Cami is awesome. Very friendly and she did a great job taking care of Zuko. I forgot to leave his bowls and she was generous to offer extra bowls. She also walked Zuko and he came so happy. Overall great experience.”

“Catherine was great! She was able to watch my anxious dog for the whole weekend with one of her children. She sent daily updates of him which made me feel that I left my dog in great hands”

“Layla is having a great time @ Elizabeth and Kevin’s. We’ve been out of the country and she’s stayed 10 nights with them. We weee updated with Photos of her day. It was so refreshing to see our girl was doing so well when we were gone. I would HIGHLY recommend Elizabeth & Kevin for your animals.”

“Thank you Jeannette for taking such good care of our little old man! We appreciate your care and how much you love on him. He always seems so content and happy when we get back, also tired from visiting with the other dogs! Thank you again and we will see you soon!”

“My boy had the best time at Janell’s house. She was very attentive and made sure Jack was comfortable prior to me leaving. I will 100% come back for future trips!”

“Carolina was great with our dog Lucky! He had so much fun playing with her pup Lola. Carolina sent updates and pictures every day, which we LOVED. Communication was great from the start. I would definitely use her again.”

“I know that our dog Hector loves Daniel because when we arrive at Daniels home, Hector pulls me to the front door and anxiously awaits (tail wagging) for Daniel to open the door so he can enter! You dog will be well cared for and will receive lots of attention at Daniel's. You will receive lots of updates, photos and even videos of your pet. I cant recommend Daniel enough!”

“Cinthya provided great care for my pets while I was away. She kept me up to date on how they were doing and I felt secure in that they were happy and safe.”

“This was our first experience with Rover. Our dog just turned one and we had boarded her at a commercial facility and a home atmosphere appealed to us as an alternative so we tried it out. Alyssa and Spencer are fantastic. We met with them beforehand just to ease our concerns and the weekend went so well that we rebooked for two more trips this summer. We highly recommend them!”

“Let me start off saying that we usually have family members watch our dog when we travel. We were quite nervous having someone else watch him. Norma put us at ease. She sent us pictures daily and a summary of how he did. Rocky made new friends while staying at Norma’s house. We will be using in the future. Rocky had a great time with her!”

“Anamika was wonderful with my dog. She has a yard and allowed them to play with her family and other dogs. She sent a lot of great pictures during the day. My dog had a great time and was very happy to see her when I brought her back a few days later.”


“Cheryl & Mike took great care of our retired working dog. Tina struggles with separation anxiety, & they jumped at the opportunity to keep our deserving girl while we were away. When they replied that it would be their honor to keep Tina for us, we knew we had found the right family. Thanks for a great week, the photo updates & the always-quick replies! And thanks for loving on our girl!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Locust on Rover is $40.7 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 2,085 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Locust. 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 Locust 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 Locust 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 Locust 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 Locust.
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 Locust 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.
