Joseph was amazing taking care of Trixie, we recently got her, so he gave me a few tips on how to train her properly which I really appreciated. He is an excellent sitter and if I ever need to board Trixie again, I will definitely be asking him to take her again. He also sent daily updates with photos and videos and I really loved that because it lets me see from the distance that she is happy and well taken care of. Thank you so much!

Emily took such good care of our fur baby. We could see how happy he was in the daily photos she sent us. Great communication before and during our trip. When we had a last minute change in travel plans, Emily was very gracious and accommodating. We will definitely be asking her to care for Bear again.

Carrie is absolutely wonderful. She sent tons of pictures and videos and treated my Buster as her own. I was worried he wouldn’t want to come back! We’ll definitely be using Carrie as our go-to sitter and would highly recommend her to anyone looking. Thanks for everything, Carrie!

There's no better place than Álora's home. I felt good and at peace leaving my little one there. I know he enjoyed the atmosphere she creates through her personality. Now we know we've found a safe and trustworthy place. I'm sure my little Ollie enjoyed it immensely. We got the impression that they treated him like one of the family, and that says more than a thousand words.

Brandi and her family were absolutely wonderful with our dog. She sent me lots of updates and pictures and had great communication. I felt completely confident our dog was safe and taken care of. Our dog was a little dramatic with their sweet older dog and Brandi was so kind navigating that (was totally our dog’s fault).

We cannot say enough about Katelyn and how she took such excellent care of our Charlie. She treated him like he was her own baby. She sent us so many pictures so we felt great while we were away. I cannot thank her enough! Charlie definitely fell in love with her. When we came today to get him, he seemed sad to leave her. Charlie obviously had a wonderful time! We will never trust anyone to care for Charlie except Katelyn in the future. And I know Charlie will be looking forward to being with her too!! If you want to feel comfortable leaving your baby with someone while you are away I highly recommend Katelyn. She is the real deal!!! Kathleen Calabrese

This was our first time using Rover and went with Bethani. She boarded our two large dogs at her house for 20 days while we were on vacation. She took excellent care of them and clearly loves animals. She sent pics or videos very regularly and we weren’t worried about them at all. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her in the future.

I'm so thankful to have found Christine and her family to keep our black lab while we were away for a few days. Chrisitine was easy to communicate with and sent regular updates. It was obvious that her kids had a big part in taking care of our dog, and he received lots of love and attention. When I picked him up, he was more calm and relaxed than he has ever been after being away from home. I would not hesitate to book with Christine again in the future.

Bethani was absolutely wonderful! She took such great care of our little Mini Pinscher and kept us consistently updated on how he was doing, along with sending pictures. It gave us such peace of mind and allowed us to truly enjoy our vacation without worrying about him at all. We would absolutely recommend Bethani to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter!

This is the 4th or 5th time we have used Bethani, and as usual it was a super experience. She kept us updated on how Corky was doing and sent lots of pictures. She is a fantastic sitter.

Our Birdie boy had a blast staying with Bethani! This was his first time staying with a sitter and she kept me up to date with how he was doing and sent pictures & I appreciated that so much! Her family was very sweet and loved on Bird too & that really put my mind at ease knowing he would be staying with someone kind that would care for him like I do! Will definitely always use Bethani in the future :)

FAQs for Boarding - McDonald

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in McDonald on Rover is $31.08 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 341 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across McDonald. 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.

84% of McDonald 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 McDonald 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 McDonald 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 McDonald.

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 McDonald 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 TN 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.
