“This was our first pet sitting booking with Dara. Our dog enjoyed her stay with Dara and there lots of other dogs for her to play with. Dara sent pics and updates too. Will definitely book with her again for pet sitting services.”
“Shannon was very sweet with Bear. She sent me a picture while I was away. She also took him on short notice which was a blessing! I recommend Shannon to anyone looking to board their fur baby.”
“This was our first experience using Rover for overnight care. Tara was amazing. She took great care of Maggie and was very communicative throughout Maggie’s stay, giving us daily updates. We will definitely use Tara again for our dog-sitting needs. Highly recommended!”
“Ayaka took wonderful care of Kai during my 3 day getaway. She shared lots of pics of him during this time and I know he had so much fun playing with her pup and daughter. Would definitely book again!”
“Chloe and her husband were super amazing. Great communication and provided photos daily without having to ask. I know my pup enjoyed her time there as she came home crashed on the couch the rest of the day. Guessing she did a lot of running and playing. Thanks Chloe!”
About: I’ve owned and taken care of cats and dogs since I was a young kid! I am also currently a veterinary technician and I’m in nursing school I currently work part time and I’m part time in school to be a RN. Pet care works best for me for morning and evening drop ins to ensure pets are doing well, feeding and get some socialization if they would like it. If a pet needs to be boarded in home, I have a very friendly and easy going pittie who gets along with most dogs and 6 cats with a small fenced in yard. If a pet is boarded in home I prefer they start crates while I’m not there at work or school but I do make a mid day run home to eat lunch and let my dog and other dog outside to potty
“I can see why Jessica has amazing reviews. We boarded our lil precious pup for a work trip and we got updates and pictures twice daily. Maple her golden doodle and her daughter were amazing with our lil Pup. The sweetest moment was when we picked her up her daughter was standing there with a lil card and toy for her new friend. I have the precious card on my refrigerator. It’s so nice to find good people to leave your pup with. We moved to area recently and we got lucky with finding Jessica and her family. We 100% recommend Jessica and her family to board your furry family member. Thank you:)”
“Julie and her family are a perfect fit for my cat. He immediately went to exploring his area. Julie was always in contact and sent the best pictures. It shows she truly loves fur babies. Scar was so happy there. He loved his stay. I will absolutely use Julie again.”
“Omg I can t say enough about this young lady. She was amazing with my cats.She sent me pictures of them even though it was only one night. And I call her all the time and she was not annoyed with my phone calls. I will definitely use her again in the future and only her.Thank You Stephanie for caring so much about our animals.”
“As a full-time Rover sitter myself I am very picky about who I trust to care for my own dog. Britney and her boys did an amazing job! Britney was very communicative and attentive to details and sent daily photos and updates. Her kids gave our pup lots of attention and love. I know he had a great time at their house and they will be my go to for the future!”
“This was our first time using Rover. Nikki and Dave did a great job watching our two dogs Otto and Milo. They are both senior dogs and needed to take daily medication. They took excellent care of our dogs and we felt they were in very caring and loving hands. They kept in touch with daily updates and photos. We would definitely use them again.”
“Samantha and Steve were amazing! We have two very active dogs, blue heeler and border collie lab mix, who needed a home for a day while we were visiting for the football game. Samantha took time to talk to us and learn more about our dogs prior to dropping them off and we immediately knew they were in good hands upon meeting them. Lovely home with nice fenced in yard and our dogs took to them right away. They took them on walks to park, played ball, sent pics of how happy they were and even let them snuggle with them on the couch and in bed, just genuinely loved our dogs! Home away from home for our pups! Wish we had a Samantha and Steve locally, super nice couple and amazing dog sitters!”
“Lindsay was absolutely amazing. We have a very nervous pup and Lindsay was so understanding and kept us regularly updated. I would absolutely recommend her and would rebook in the future!”
“Andy and her family were amazing and immediately took sprout in as their own! Sprout had the best time playing in the backyard, going for walks, & getting so much love and attention. Could not recommend more!”

I cannot say enough great things about my dogs stay with Dara. She goes above and beyond keeping me informed and sending updates and pictures. It felt great to know my pups were in good hands and were being taken care of. I’m sure my dogs are looking forward to their next stay!
Cassie was wonderful with my fur baby during his stay at her home. I would say she is one of the best sitters I have ever encountered with her continuous messaging and pictures , kept me updated and I will most definitely be using her services in the future. She went above and beyond any pet sitter would and has a natural connection with dogs that allow them to be at ease and super happy while being away from their Owner.

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Saxon is $30 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $40 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

As of November 2026, there are 601 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Saxon. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Saxon can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Saxon 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 Saxon.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Saxon. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Saxon 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 SC 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
