“Bella loves her stays at Kathy's house. The fact that I ALWAYS check Kathy's availability when I need a sitter says it all. I want excellent care for my little girl, and Kathy provides that!”
“Kayla, her husband Michael (and their kids) made my boys (Bonanza and Jackson) feel so incredibly loved! Jackson is a senior dog with mobility issues, but he still was part of the action. Bonanza loved playing with the kids and other pups and running around the back yard. The kindness, care and compassion of Kayla and her family was just so special. I felt good knowing the pups were in such amazing hands and loved the photo updates. I look forward to boarding with Kayla again…and the boys do too!”
“Leslie was great for my dog Kobe. Her experience helped with his seizures and she took care of him really well. Love that they allow him to sleep with them and play all day with her other dogs. I will definitely be booking again with her next month for my next trip.”
“Dana truly went above and beyond while caring for my pups during my time away. She followed all of their feeding instructions perfectly, stayed home with them throughout the day, and sent plenty of updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. Her home and secure fencing made me feel confident they were safe, and it was clear they had a great time. We’ll definitely be back!”
“Mulligan LOVES going to Jeannette’s! He’s stayed many times-she is always attentive, affectionate and communicative. Her big grassy fenced back yard is a big hit with our apartment living pup. Can’t recommend Jeannette enough.”
“Itzel did a wonderful job with my high-energy puppy & older dog. She made sure they were comfortable and safe during their stay, and sent daily updates wittr pictures. I would definitely recommend her without hesitation:)”
“She and her family were fantastic. She sent tons of updates and pictures to let me know how my dogs were doing. Her dog was very friendly and got along well with my dogs. Anytime she had questions she was quick to reach out. I will definitely be booking with her again. She is the best!”
“We used Amy & Ross for a trial night, but this time we came back for a stay for a little longer than a week. We are very grateful we were able to take a trip and not stress about Rocky being well cared for. We appreciated the photo updates and responses to any messages. Highly recommend Amy as a sitter and will be using for future needs as long as they will take Rocky! Thanks again! :)”
“Thank you so much for working with our timing and letting Ruby get all comfy at your house 😂 the kids love to see the pics of her playing and snuggling with the other dogs!”
“Daniel is wonderful at caring for our 5 year old dog Melo. We love that he sends lots of photos and communicates constantly! Melo loves that Daniel takes him on walks and lets him relax while we travel. Thanks again Daniel, we’ll see you this summer!”
“Peggy was fantastic with Piper! She took great care of her and kept me updated the whole time, which gave me real peace of mind. Piper was happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for. I’d definitely book with Peggy again!”
“Amazing sitter! Got a lot of updates which really eased my anxieties about leaving my puppy. She was super kind and made sure that I knew she was ok throughout my whole trip. She went above and beyond by brushing her and walking her multiple times a day. If you’re looking for a sitter I would recommend her any day.”
“Heaven sent!! Christal (and her sweet kiddos) were a true blessing. My dog landed in the perfect home while we were vacationing. The communication was prompt, from the moment I requested her services (at 4AM), Christal answered and took in my puppy that same afternoon. He was well cared for, seemed happy with his daily walks and play time. I appreciate the photos I would receive throughout the day. I recommend Christal and will definitely reach out to her when I need a pet sitter. Christal: Thank you SO MUCH! Max sends his love to you and your family!”
“Frankie enjoyed her stay with Lipika. We knew she was well taken care of with the many updates and photos we received throughout her stay. We saw that Frankie made herself right at home with snuggles on the couch! So glad we found Lipika.”
“Jennifer took the best care of our fur baby! I loved all the pictures and updates throughout our vacation! Shiloh is going to miss her new friend, Olivia. I highly recommend Jennifer, and will likely use her again!!”
“Great! Thanks so much for helping us take a spontaneous trip to visit with a family member in Charleston. This was clearly a loving and wonderful environment for our dog. Again, many thanks.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Locust on Rover is $40.7 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 2,107 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.
