How these prices were collected
- Source: prices published on each business's own website or downloadable price sheet. We do not use directory sites, review sites or map listings.
- Who is included: pet boarding services, kennels, dog daycares and groomers within 35 miles of downtown Charlotte, whatever their main category. 30 businesses (35 locations) published a regular dog boarding price. Locations of the same brand (identified by business name and website domain) that publish the same price count once: 10 locations are combined into 5 rows. Locations of one brand with different prices count separately.
- How we summarize: for each business we take its lowest regular price for one dog (per night), then report the median and the middle 50% (25th–75th percentile) across businesses. A range is shown only when at least 15 businesses publish prices; 8–14 is marked "Limited sample"; with fewer we only list prices.
- Not counted: add-ons (medication, extra play, baths), holiday and peak surcharges, multi-dog totals, multi-visit packages and memberships, bundles, puppy-only prices, long-stay or member discounts, rates that bundle transportation, coupons, deposits and taxes, and boarding rates that include daycare or play sessions.
- Checks: every price is matched against the text of the page it came from; prices that cannot be found on the page are dropped.
- Updates: prices are re-checked about every quarter. Businesses change prices without notice — confirm with the business before booking.
