“This was our first time using Rover and first time boarding our dog in the year we've had him. Jessica made everything very easy, and her interactions and conversations during our initial meet and greet made us very comfortable choosing her. She was very responsive before and during the boarding (even before booking) and sent cute pictures even during the Christmas holiday when she had him. Absolutely zero issues all the way through. Very happy to have someone nearby we can trust to leave him with in the future.”
“Matt does such a great job of taking care of our 2 babies! We can rest easy knowing he is watching them. He gives great updates and both of our dogs run to his door to see him”
“Lauren and her family took such great care of our Reggie that he actually didn’t want to leave her front porch when I picked him up. Lauren is so kind and gentle with him…Reggie and I couldn’t be happier.”
“Yevheniia did a great job watching our dog Foquito. She was very responsive and accommodating. Her communication was great and we appreciated the photos she sent of Foquito during his stay with her. We could tell he was having fun. She was also very attentive when he got a small cut on his paw, and we appreciate that she took time to clean it and put antiseptic. We plan to book with her again!”
“They took care of my pup very well while we were out of town for a few days. They have such a cozy home that I know my furry friend absolutely loved! They took my dog on several walks and gave her such love and care. They were very pleasant people and I look forward to using them again soon”
“Albina is a great sitter. Very responsive. She has a fenced in backyard and our lab loves playing with her lab in the backyard. She will keep you updated on your pet with pictures and videos. Her kids loved on my dog.”
“I want to thank Christal from the bottom of heart for providing Jack with a great environment and lots of love and attention. We all know that when it comes to our pets, we want only the very best. Christal proved to be just that. I cannot wait to use her 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!”
“Annie is the best! She is very thoughtful in her messages and small surprises for Atticus and our family. I know she truly cares about Atticus and that he is well taken care of while we are away!”
“We feel so fortunate to have found Sarah before our long trip. The pictures and videos of our dog running and playing with other pups in her spacious, fenced yard gave us peace of mind while we were away. We would definitely recommend her and use her again.”
“Our two pups did great with Katherine and her family. They got a lot of loving and were spoiled for sure. They even slept in way longer than they do at home, so you know they had a good time while there. We'll use Katherine again in the future, as everyone seemed to have enjoyed themselves and Katherine kept us well informed complete with pictures.”
“Sheila took such great care of Penny! We loved the photos and videos she sent us. It was easy to see how happy and comfortable Penny felt with her. Penny was exhausted when we brought her home. Definitely recommend her!”
“Another great visit with Uncle Dan! We know our pup is well taken care of and loved while we are away, and we appreciate all the photos and updates during our trip. We try to book Dan for every trip!”
“If you're looking for a boarder who treats your pet as their own, look no further than Nathalie. She asked thoughtful questions ahead of the booking and provided many updates throughout the day so I could be assured that my dog was not only safe and cared for, but was also having the time of his life. I also felt like Nathalie's location, which is convenient for me personally, was also very conducive for stimulating walks. I'm so grateful to have been matched with Nathalie on this platform. Now, leaving town will not be as stressful knowing he is getting so much love and affection while I am away.”
“Carol did an outstanding job taking care of our pup Emma. Her and Louis' home is a safe haven, and a fun place for her to be when we are out of town. She even doctored up one of Emma's paws that we mentioned was irritated when we dropped her off. Carol goes out her way to make Emma feel special.”
“Jeff & Lilia were amazing with our pet. Lots of walks & playing for him and consistent updates for us. I know that our dog was very well looked after and I would highly recommend Jeff & Lilia for dog boarding, they provided an excellent service.”
“My pup had sooo much fun with Tiffany! It was my first time using Rover, and I felt very comfortable because she sent me several updates and pictures through the day. She was also super flexible because I had to change the pickup time and she was very accommodating! I cannot thank her enough for taking such good care of my Bella! I will certainly be a returning customer!”
“We had a wonderful experience! She took excellent care of our two dogs and kept us updated throughout their stay with regular messages and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. We felt completely comfortable knowing our pets were in such caring and capable hands. It was clear they were well loved and cared for. We would absolutely trust her with our dogs again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Waxhaw
This was the first time we had boarded our 7 month old puppy with Heather. She did a great job and followed our instructions for her care. Heather was also very accommodating and sent us daily messages on how Sadie was doing. When we returned, Sadie was happy but very tired. She had obviously had fun playing with Heather's two small dogs. We will be using Heather again in the near future and highly recommend her.
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!
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 :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Waxhaw on Rover is $43.29 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 2,116 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.
94% 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.
