“We genuinely appreciated Mason & Kassandra for coming through and taking care of our girls after a very last minute scramble to find someone after our initial plans fell through. They communicated with us throughout the pups’ stay and took great care of them. We’re transitioning to a new home/location and it’s been quite the adjustment for our pups, but Kassandra and Mason were very understanding and took great care of our girls while we were away!”
“Angel was amazing! My 2 big babies stayed with him and his family in his home for 7 days and they took exceptional care of them. From the start, communication was clear, consistent, and reassuring, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Our dogs were happy, well cared for, and clearly loved the attention they received. Angel kept us updated with messages and photos, which meant so much to us. It’s not easy trusting someone with both your pets, but Angel made the entire experience stress-free. We came back to two very happy dogs, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Highly recommend and would absolutely book again!”
“Libertad was such a nice lady. Responded daily with videos and pictures. Lucy and Ginger were treated like family. We were in the process of getting a new place and Libertad happily modified our reservation many times. She is a gem and a blessing. Your furry family will be treated the best.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! From the moment we left for vacation, she made us feel completely at ease by sending daily photos and updates. Seeing our dogs so happy, comfortable, and well cared for gave us so much peace of mind and allowed us to truly enjoy our trip. It’s clear, Vivian genuinely loves animals and treated our dogs like they were her own. We are incredibly grateful for the care, attention, and kindness she showed them. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and reliable to care for their pets. Thank you so much!”
“Tatiana was absolutely amazing while watching our dogs, Loki and Athena, during our vacation. She went above and beyond, sending us daily updates with pictures and letting us know how they were doing, from their eating habits to how they woke up and whether they played with the other dogs. Tatiana even took care of our baby Loki by putting eardrops in when his ear was acting up, showing genuine care and attention to detail. She was incredibly easy to communicate with, always prompt in responding to our questions, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and we will definitely be seeing Tatiana again. Loki and Athena will absolutely be going back to her next time! Highly recommend!”
“Ingrid was very nice and helpful with our last-minute booking. Her house is nicely set up to accommodate the dogs she watches. And even thought it was just for one night, she was sure to send pics and videos to update us. Thanks Ingrid!”
“My dog Sam had such a great stay with Joanne. He is normally very nervous about meeting new people, but he took to Joanne right away, and he loved playing with her dog Juno. Joanne has a nice big back yard that is fenced, so Sammy got lots of outdoor time (which he loves). She kept me up to date each day on how he was doing by sending photos. I definitely plan to use Joanne again in the future, and I recommend her highly as a sitter.”
“Keyla was absolutely amazing taking care of my poodle. From the very beginning, her daily communication was excellent, and she constantly sent me updates that gave me so much peace of mind. She cared for my dog with so much love, truly as if he were part of her own family. I’m beyond grateful for her dedication and kindness, and I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to care for their pet.”
“So grateful for Jay!!! Finally we were able to enjoy our vacation knowing our two dogs were in great hands. He kept us informed through texts, pics and videos daily! 100% recommended!! We will be booking him again for sure!”
“Craig and his family took such great care of my puppy Kahleesi. It was my first time boarding my puppy so I was a little bit apprehensive to leave her with a stranger. Craig and his family put me right at ease! With daily photos and text messages throughout her stay and even letting me meet with him before her stay set my mind completely at ease. I knew she was in good hands with Craig. I would definitely recommend Craig to all family and friends. Thanks again Craig!”
“She send us pic and videos everyday to see our baby! Mailov was happy and confortable like he was at home! Patricia gave us that peace of mind to enjoy our trip.”
“This was our first time using James’s for our fur babies and both Winston and Bella just fell into a routine and made themselves right at home! He did a great job entertaining both of our dogs at the same time and loving them equally. They have different foods, and he was able to take care of each of them as they needed to be taken care of. Also, he mentioned that he would keep in touch and send pictures. He absolutely did a great job letting us know how our babies were doing even within a couple hours of dropping them off, and letting us see that they were getting the love and attention they needed. I highly recommend him, and we will use him again in the future!”
“Ashley, is awsome! She sent constant updates on my fur baby. I felt totally relaxed on vacation, knowing she was constantly letting me know how my baby was doing. Ashley is very sweet and caring sitter. 100% recommend!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received this weekend. From start to finish, the experience was exceptional. She was incredibly attentive, responsible, and genuinely caring. What impressed me the most was her constant communication—she regularly sent videos and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind and showed how comfortable, happy, and well cared for my dog was at all times. It was clear that my dog was not just being watched, but truly cared for with affection and attention. I am extremely grateful for her dedication and professionalism, and I would trust her again without hesitation. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, loving, and communicative pet sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of my dog!”
“Holli took such very good care of our dogs the past few days. Her home and family were a great fit for our guys. You not only get Holli, but her whole family to love on your pets. Communication was easy and updates came daily. We felt so comfortable having our dogs with her. We will definitely be booking with her again.”

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Lake Alfred is $32 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $41 per night.

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.
96% of sitters in Lake Alfred 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 Lake Alfred 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 Lake Alfred.
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 Lake Alfred 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 FL 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.
