“Leslie watched my puppy Winnie for a week while we were out of town for spring break and I can't recommend her enough! Communication was amazing, Leslie and her husband were so kind, they had a huge fenced yard for the dogs and Winnie came home exhausted!”
“Save and Eclipse had the best time. We received pictures regularly of them playing outside, smiling, and getting cuddles. Thank you for taking such great care of our babies.”
“This is our first time using Rover, and we couldn’t be more pleased. Kathy did a wonderful job taking care of our dog Oreo. She was able to accommodate our last minute request, and provided consistent updates and pictures throughout his stay. We hope to utilize her in the future, and would definitely recommend her services.”
“I was so happy to be able to find someone on such short notice. We were pleased with her services. Immediately upon meeting her she showed such compassion to my babies who were very shy and afraid of new surroundings. They eventually adjusted and Mari was patient with them. She also sent me pictures of them which put me at ease. I would definitely use her services again. Thanks Mari.”
“It was are first time with Norma and our Lexy and the service was outstanding. We received daily pictures(so comforting) and Norma responded to our texts in a timely manor. Our girl really seemed happy and tired when we picked her up! We found are new sitter!”
“Ms. Hope was amazing. Great communication and she loves all the pups like they are her own. Even the ones with a little anxiety! I also liked that she dog sits multiple pups so they make new friends. Definitely rebooking! Thank you 💛”
“I want to thank Jeanette for her willingness to take a last minute request to take care of Buster. This is Buster's second time in her care, and she has shown much love to him every visit. I know that he loves going to her home, because he has a lot of other little friends he can play with and doesn't feel overwhelmed or alone. Her doggie daycare is well organized and maintained so that each dog has his own special place to rest, eat and play. Thank you Jeanette for extending your love to my pet!”
“Dennise was great with my senior pup. Very patient and accommodating. Pretty Boy was very comfortable with her. We will definitely be back for another stay!”
“The dogs (all 3 of them could not be happier) to stay with the loveliest family. They spoiled them, exercised them and took such good care of my puppies that I don’t think they wanted to leave. Huge house and a beautiful property for dogs to play and romp and just have a blast!”
“Jack received such love and care when we left him with Amy & Ross! Our pup has a lot of anxiety, and they made sure he felt safe and loved. Amy’s mom was also a great companion for Jack. We will definitely be asking them to watch him again.”
“As always - Luna absolutely loves going to Elizabeth’s. She has fun playing with new friends and we never stress about leaving her, which makes a huge difference when traveling!”
“Our Dakota baby stayed with Kelly for an entire week while his Mom and Dad went on vacation. While Mom was very anxious, as this is her first baby, Kelly reassured her completely. Photos and videos of him playing with other dogs reassured Mom he was in great hands. Though he came home a little "dusty", it again soothed Mom's soul, knowing he had a great time. After all, Kelly lives on a small farm as does Dakota when he is at home with Mom and Dad. I'll take a little dust anytime, which is better than green slime from the pond at home! Thank you again Kelly for taking great care of our Dakota. He will definitely be back!”
“Lovely family! Monica and her son were so kind and patient with Kevin. Our initial meet-and-greet ended quickly because Kevin didn’t seem to get along with one of their dogs at first, but Monica’s son encouraged us to come back and give the dogs more time to get comfortable with each other. I really appreciated that, because Kevin ended up having a great stay based on the photos and updates I received. I’m very happy with the care they gave him, especially since they were able to take him last minute. Thank you again!”
“Many thanks to Brittany for taking care of Buster. He did well over the number of days spent with her and her family. I can tell he was well cared for because he was very perky when I came to pick him up. He ate all of his food, and Brittany made sure of that since he is on a strict diet. His items came back clean, and nothing was missing of which I appreciated that as well. I look forward to using her services again in the future.”
“Daniel was a godsend! He took care of our dog - Ringo, as if he were his own. He sent us constant updates throughout the stay (photos and his daily routine), and made us feel at ease every step of the way while we were away. We would not hesitate to leave Ringo with Daniel at any point in time in the future. Thank you so much Daniel!”
“Michael, Emily and their kiddos did a great job caring for our 3 yr old bernadoodle. Daisy loved her time with them. She got to go on walks, play ball, take care of rides and chilled with the family. It was a great experience for everyone. Will definitely book with Emily and Michael again.”
“Bri took excellent care of my 7 month old puppy on her first boarding of a few days. I appreciated how Bri kept me informed throughout how Maggie was doing and sent many pictures. Maggie loves people and animals so I am sure she enjoyed her time with Bri, her family and pups.”
“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.”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Locust on Rover is $40.7 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 2,072 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.
