“Jeanette was an amazing sitter for Boots. I could tell he was so comfortable and happy the entire time during his stay. Even from the initial meet and great she made up feel so welcome and I can tell that she genuinely cares for animals and is passionate about her services. Boots has another aunty now :) and we will definitely rebook !”
“Jill was a dream come true!!! We took the longest trip we have ever taken from our S’mores, and we were a bit worried because she has been suffering from a bit of older age anxiety. Jill was so wonderful with her and got to know her so well before our trip. She was super patient learning about S’mores and she sent such great daily reports! She was an awesome communicator! An added extra is her very lovely parents that showered S’mores with a lot of love and attention as well! Thank you so much, Jill!!!”

“HIGHLY recommend Jessica to take care of your pet! She provided a loving home and a large yard, clear communication and pictures throughout Tucker’s stay. Tucker was SPOILED (I’m surprised he wanted to come back home)! He has some food allergies, and she ensured that he didn’t get into anything that he wasn’t supposed to be eating. Jessica is a true pet lover, and we will definitely be using her again!”

Highly recommend!”

We had such a positive experience with Monie! Our dog stayed with her, and it was clear that he felt safe and comfortable in her care. She sent us daily updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away, and she was always very responsive whenever we reached out. We really appreciated the care and attention she gave our dog and would definitely feel comfortable having him stay with her again!
Heather did a great job caring for both my boys. They seemed comfortable and at ease with her (which was a huge concern of mine) and she was well aware of the importance of daily medication (another comfort). She even picked up toys for them during their stay! Absolutely appreciate her generosity, flexibility, and care of them while I was out of town.
Brandi was amazing. We are so happy we found her. With the new move and last minute booking we wanted someone nearby. She was awesome with all the pictures and updates and so accommodating with last minute changes. Hope we can have lLegend visit in the future :)
I had a fantastic experience with Jeffrey. Communication was excellent from start to finish—he kept me updated with messages and pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dog had the best time playing with his dog, and it was clear he was loved and well cared for. When I picked him up, he was happy, healthy, and tired from all the fun. His home was also very clean and felt like a safe environment. I would definitely book again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Waxhaw on Rover is $44.17 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 2,113 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Waxhaw. 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 Waxhaw 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 Waxhaw 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 Waxhaw 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 Waxhaw.
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 Waxhaw 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.
