“Ulunma and her family were so wonderful with me - and Coco! Coco had a great week and I appreciate that they were so helpful giving Coco her ear medecine for a sudden infection - which healed quickly. Thank you Ulunma - I will be back in touch!!”
“We all want peace of mind when we are away from our furry family members. I had no doubt that our Yoda was in good hands with Patrick and Sophie! It was the first time we'd been separated from Yoda in 6 years.. Patrick made it work for everyone! He even sent photos and video while we were away! He is a dog sitting Angel.”
“This was our first overnight stay for our 8 month old Wein puppy, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Yena was incredibly attentive, making sure every one of our puppy’s needs was met and showering her with love and affection—it truly felt like she was with family. The environment was perfect, with plenty of other friendly pups to play with. We were completely at peace knowing she was in the best hands. Highly recommend if you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like their own!”
“Our dog loved staying at Stefanie’s with her dog Prince. She always sent us updates and pictures. We would love to rebook with her in the future because she’s amazing!”
“Margy is fantastic - friendly, professional and great with our golden retriever! We knew Scout was well cared for while we were away and she came home a happy pup. Would definitely recommend Margy!”
“Our two pups had another incredible stay with Frank, Thao and their boys! We were regularly updated while away for a longer trip, and felt comfortable enjoying ourselves knowing how well they were being taken care of. They got tons of exercise and playtime every day, and lots of love. Will definitely be using them regularly on our trips away!”
“This is now the third time we have booked with Nicole and I can’t say enough how amazing she is. We are so appreciative to have someone who can keep us at ease when we travel and can’t bring our little guy, Dan, with us. She’s patient, communicative, and a clear animal lover. We are so grateful she has opened up her home to Dan!”
“Ying is a wonderful dog sitter. She took care of our 75lbs Shepard mix and sent us fun photos and generally cared about his well being. We hope she’s available the next time we need a sitter!”
“Joseph and Marikris came through on a last-minute reservation and provided exceptional levels of care for my special needs dog. My dog Daisy had been recently diagnosed with IVDD and I was prepared to cancel my trip, but Marikris assured me of her professional veterinary background and familiarity with the condition, and I felt confident trusting J&M with her care. Daisy looked so happy in all the photos they shared, and I feel truly blessed to have found such kind and attentive neighbors to care for my girl. Thank you so much Joseph & Marikris, you guys are amazing and I look forward to working together again 🙌”
“Natalie took excellent care of our dog, Arlo. She’s very warm and welcoming and I felt confident that we left our dog in good hands when we went out of town for the weekend. She gave us daily updates and lots of photos throughout his stay and responded to my messages quickly. I would gladly book another stay with Natalie again for a future trip!”
“Excellent experience! Our dog had a great time while he was there, and he was very well cared for. We also received many lovely photos that helped us miss him just a bit less 😉. We Highly recommend Brayden and Noel!”
“Catherine was very responsive and sent regular updates everyday! She is also very good with special needs dogs and definitely very experienced. Definitely made me feel peace of mind while traveling!”
“This was a great experience!! This was the first time our dog stayed with someone we didn't know and Ruth made the process so easy. We felt so relaxed knowing our dog was not only well taken care of but loved! Ruth sent constant updates and photos to keep us informed. We would definitely return and highly recommend Ruth!!”
“Cara is amazing!! We have two reactive dogs, and I was concerned that they would not warm up to a caregiver. Cara was patient and they warmed right up to her. She took great care of them and provided me with daily updates. She took them on walks, let them explore outside, and provided a comforting space for them to lounge and rest. I highly recommend Cara.”
“It’s the second time we’ve used Michael, and he’s been terrific. He’s super responsive and provides lots of updates. Plus, the dogs always come back happy. Thanks for everything Michael. Ivy and Jake are looking forward to coming back!”
“Highly recommend Jenean! This was the first time leaving my puppy with someone else, and I felt comfortable knowing that my dog would be the only one Jenean was caring for at the same time. She has a lovely home, a sweet personality, and took my dog for daily walks. She also was wonderfully easy to work with -- VERY responsive to text messages. Will definitely re-book for future trips!”
About: We have spent years loving our own dogs, and honestly, we treat them better than we treat humans. :-) When your pup stays with us, they aren’t just being watched, they are joining a household, dedicated entirely to belly, rubs, naps, and maximum comfort. Since we have two little friendly dogs and a cat of our own, your pet will have a built-in social club and will never feel lonely. Since I already work out of the house and care for my own pets all day, adding your dog to the mix will fit seamlessly into our daily routine. I am constantly here to open doors, handout treats, and provide supervision making your dogs care, a natural extension of my everyday life. Our yard is completely fenced in with tons of room for your pup to burn off energy, sniff around and safely enjoy themselves. It’s a built-in dog park.
“Absolutely awesome job watching Linguini! Pictures and updates were fantastic, I could tell he was having a good time and he was well taken care of! He currently has allergies and she made sure he got his special food and allergy meds! Will definitely use for next time!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lafayette
Michael was truly unbelievable and definitely will be rebooking. He sat our 2 labs and they immediately took to him when we met him prior to booking - rare for our yellow, who sometimes gets a bit nervous around new people, but he was immediately at ease. Michael is clearly a chap who knows dogs and who dogs know is a good, loving person. Michael was also super responsive and kept us updated with photos throughout the stay. The dogs were clearly well settled and happy. THANK YOU MICHAEL! Truly. Dare I say, I can't wait to book again. Don't hesitate - this guy is a gem!
We have an older dog, and Christina really took great care of her. She sent us pictures every day, texted us when she had concerns, and basically took care of our dog like she was her own. I would give her the highest recommendation. Her and her husband both seem like very kind people.
Felix was totally amazing at taking care of my labradoodle. He was communicative, professional, kind and responsive and my dog was immediately at ease with Felix, his dog and the beautiful, safe surroundings. His is by far the nicest place I’ve ever seen for a daycare, I’m pretty sure my dog also thought it was paradise! I would 100% recommend Felix!

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Lafayette on Rover is $62.16 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 6,285 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Lafayette. 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.
92% of Lafayette 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 Lafayette 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 Lafayette 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 Lafayette.
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 Lafayette 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 CA 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.
