“We’ve had Joshua and Audrey watch our dog Roger multiple times now, and they always take such good care of him and send lots of pictures! Roger is always excited to be back to hang out with them and their dogs. I always know he’s in great hands with them. :)”
“April and Chris took great care of Rocsi and really made her feel at home. I thoroughly appreciate the accommodations that were made and would definitely board with them again.”
“Bozena is consistently a great sitter and I always feel at ease leaving my pup with her. Great level of communication and provides lots of great pics where my pup always looks as happy as can be.”
“Heather watched our 2 dogs in her home and was great. She was very flexible with drop-off time and adjusting it as we had some issues leaving. She has a great fenced-in yard where they can run around and her dog is very friendly even with our one dog barking at her when we first dropped them off. Both of our dogs did great, we will use her again.”
“So glad we found Kayla! We had been taking our dog to Social Pet and we’re not happy with how much time they kept them closed up and alone. Our dog got to play with others, hang out in a regular home setting, and have regular love and attention. Also the daily updates and pics were great. Will absolutely book again. Thank you!”
“Anthony was fantastic from beginning to end! His dog, Jojo, is very sweet and got along with my dog well. He also sent lots of pictures of my dog throughout my trip!”
“Absolutely wonderful! The communication was great and I loved receiving the pictures and updates while I was away. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Nora was happy and well cared for. I will definitely book again and highly recommend!”
“Cody was able to take Tux on short notice and provided excellent care. I received pictures and videos all throughout his stay. Unfortunately I ran into some flight delay issues and he was extremely understanding and flexible with me for pick up. I definitely recommend, 10/10!”
“Andrew did a great job taking care of my dog Koa! He even sent multiple updates and pictures throughout Koa’s stay. He seemed knowledgeable about caring for dogs and even trains dogs so I felt Koa was in good hands. Thank you again Andrew I will definitely be checking your schedule next time I need a sitter for Koa.”
“Best peace of mind I could have asked for as an anxious dog mom lol. From the beginning of booking, to the arrival, actual stay, and pickup, Maria was so amazing! She’s so nice, informative, laid back, and I can tell she really cares for animals. I’ll definitely be rebooking in the future! Again, Maria thank you so much!”
“Kanishka was amazing with snoopy! She was supper communicative and followed directions well. I had come change in travel plans and she was very accommodating. Would definitely feel comfortable leaving snoopy with her again!”
“If I could provide more than 5 stars I would. Brittany did an outstanding job watching over Maxxwell. She was communicative and a quick responder, no matter the time. Brittany and her family made Maxxwell feel love and at home. She did such an amazing job my family and I are booking her again this weekend while we’re away at the beach. This was our first time ever using Rover, but I think we found our forever sitter already 😊😊😊”
“If I could give John and Diane six stars I would! From the minute I met them in person for a meet and greet, I knew that they're the warmest, most caring and kind sitters you could ask for! John and Diane sent plenty of photos of my pup, Captain, during his stay, and they took him on multiple outings to a nearby park. They kept me well-informed of how Captain was doing, and they welcomed him to feel right at home with no shortage of love. If you come across John and Diane in your browsing for a sitter, look no further - it doesn't get any better than them!”
“Our anxious fur baby found the perfect hosts in Donna and Britton. The experience was great from start to finish. We received updates and pictures throughout her stay. Thank you again Donna!!!”
“Gonzalo and his family took great care of our dog. He has a great backyard to play in, they took him on walks and updated us with pictures and videos throughout the week. We will definitely book with him again!”
“Jeanette was fantastic with accommodating special requests for our 13-week old puppy, Asher! She sent lots of pictures and videos, spent LOTS of time with him outdoors playing, and even helped work with him on bell training!”
“Madison took in my 1/4 trained teenager puppy, Maybelline, on last minute notice. Boarding is such a cold word. Madison treated Mabel as her own, with walks, playtimes, exercise, mandatory nap-naps, socialization, traffic! Ten out of ten. Part of the pack. The best review I can give is that ive already booked her again.”
“Deborah was the perfect sitter for our dog MaryAnn while we were away for 12 days overseas. We loved that Deborah had a big fenced in back yard, worked from home, and only took on one dog at a time. It helped recreate our dog’s typical experience at home. Deborah was quick to respond to our booking inquiry and was happy to set up a meet and greet in which she took many notes. Deborah clearly had a lot of dog experience on and off Rover and she was confident she and MaryAnn would get on well. Deborah would send us frequent updates and even handled MaryAnns tummy issues. She was also great about administering MaryAnn’s medications and heartworm pill as instructed. When we picked MaryAnn up she was clearly exhausted from spending lots of time playing out and she definitely seemed extremely happy and comfortable on Deborah’s home. Highly recommend Deborah for your boarding experience!”
“Sushma was an amazing dog sitter! While my family was away, the daily photo updates she sent gave us so much joy and complete peace of mind. I could tell the moment I picked my dog up that he had been incredibly comfortable and well-loved. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!”
“Janet provided wonderful care of my senior dog, a nearly fifteen-year-old chiweenie, sending regular photos and updates and accommodating his somewhat odd diet. Highly recommend!”
The median cost per night for pet boarding in Waxhaw is $48

Here’s a polished version that keeps it warm and genuine: Such a kind and genuine host! We feel truly blessed to have someone like her take care of our baby, Sasha. Sasha always feels safe, comfortable, and secure with her, which gives us so much peace of mind. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Sasha and treating her with so much love. We truly appreciate you and look forward to having Sasha stay with you again!
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 :)

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Waxhaw is $43 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $66 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 long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
There are 2,151 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Waxhaw. About 92% of Waxhaw sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
