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.

They have an extra big back yard for lots of fun and dog running which I especially loved. Frank also walked my dog and his kids welcomed my dog into their bedroom at bedtime. Truely the entire family wants to participate.💕 I will definitely use them again!”

“Everything from a flexible drop off/pick up to updates with pics to the dogs coming home tired from playing was exactly what they needed. The piece of mind we had was a huge bonus to have them with someone who cared! It's never easy leaving your pups with anyone but will not hesitate to do it again with Peter!! Thanks again”

About: I’m an animal lover at heart and have personal experience with fish, birds, cats, dogs, and chickens. I can train puppies and will ensure your animals get the love and attention they need. I have a flexible schedule where I work part time and I am home most days. With two dogs and a cat myself, I go on 2-3 walks daily. I have a fenced large yard and two small dogs that nap in crates indoors. Your pet will be supervised and given plenty of exercise.

“Valerie was exceptional! Her attention to and care for my puppy Monroe was expert and knowledgeable. This was Monroes first time away from home, and Valerie was rightfully concerned about his severe separation anxiety. Like the professional she is, she helped Monroe through it while updating me with pictures, information, and tips the entire time. Valerie is very down to earth, friendly, and caring. Your fur friends are 100% in excellent hands!”

“Nadia & Liam took such great care of our pups! My husband and I are very picky about who watch our French Bulldogs, so we were very hesitant at first to try out Rover. But after meeting Nadia and Liam we felt very comfortable leaving our pups with them. They were very responsive and easy to communicate with. They truly put us at ease while we were out of town. They had a great space for the dogs to run around and explore, which the dogs were loving! They sent daily updates, pictures and videos of the dogs which we looked forward to everyday. It was so comforting knowing our dogs were in such great hands. We will definitely be booking with Nadia & Liam again!”

About: Looking to connect with owners of sweet, gentle dogs! We have two small dogs who are very playful but not pushy, and we'd love to find compatible dog friends. I'm hoping to build a trusted circle where we can help each other with dog sitting when traveling. I can host up to two dogs at a time. Message me if you're interested! 🐾 Self-employed at home. I walk my dogs 2 times during the day and 1 more time before bed. A few times a week, I bring them to Civic Park to socialize with other dogs before dinner. Once a week, I drive them to a nearby nature reserve for a hike. I feed them breakfast and dinner. Same if not more care will be given to your doggies. There are two fenced dog parks in my building that are treated daily with enzymatic chemicals. If your dog has sensitive skin, I will not bring them there to potty.

Christy took excellent care of my senior dachshund, Leia, while I was on a long weekend trip! It’s always nerve-wracking to leave your dog with a new person for the first time, but Christy went above and beyond to provide constant care for my girl and ensure that she (and I) were comfortable with her staying there. She provided peace of mind for me knowing that Leia was well taken care of while I was on my trip. She sent me photos and updates often so I knew how Leia was doing. I can’t recommend her enough! We’ll definitely be back again sometime soon for future trips.

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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Lafayette on Rover is $62 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $42 and $90 per night. 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.

As of October 2026, there are 6,213 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 routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.

93% of sitters in Lafayette can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Lafayette home-away-from-home, 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.

<b>Tip:</b> 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 , 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 .

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.
