“This is the first time we have ever left our dog with a stranger. It was a good experience. Alejandra was a great communicator, sent pictures and let us know how he was doing daily. She does a wonderful job, highly recommend her!”

“Kelly and her family took great care of our 8 year old Golden. She was made part of the family, which was lovely. We were late coming back from our vacation and she wasn’t phased by it. Very nice!”

“Tatiana and her family were a great fit for Holi. They provided her the lots of love and attention and she had a blast playing with the kids and pups. Tatiana was great with updates throughout the stay and was super responsive to any messages. We will for sure rebook with her in the future.”

“Bianca is such a caring, thoughtful, and patient person. It was our first time being apart from our little guy in very long time but Bianca was understanding and had a great energy that helped us feel assured he’d be in good hands. Within an hour she’d sent us updates and we could already see Mylo felt right at home alongside her, her daughter, and her dog Kasha – who is also very gentle, loving, and got along well with our pup. Throughout the sit Bianca kept in touch with us regularly so we always felt at ease and could enjoy our trip, which meant a lot. We returned to find our little buddy being his typical jolly self and could tell he also got to enjoy a little adventure of his own! It was our first time using Rover or trusting someone new with our sweet boy but we’re so grateful we found Bianca! We’d definitely use her in the future and 100% recommend her to anyone in need of someone kind and attentive to look after their fur babies!”

About: I have cared for a pet for virtually every year of my life that I can remember. From puppies and kittens to the most elder of the two, I cherish all stages of their development and love the joy that each unique individual personality of each pet brings to our world. I'm currently working part time, and on the days that I do work, I work remotely, so I will have plenty of time to dedicate to the care of your pet. I have a beautiful large yard at the end of a cul-de-sac that is full of trees. We live in a very nice neighborhood that is perfect for walking dogs also. We have two indoor cats that get along beautifully and are adaptable to other animals. We have a very clean home and are non-smokers.
“Brooke was fantastic with our two dogs. They stayed with her two nights while we were out of town and we could not be happier with our experience. Brooke was very responsive and answered all of our questions before our dogs stayed. During our stay Brooke was excellent with both our younger, more active dog as well as our older dog who needs a little help getting up sometimes and has daily medications that must be administered. Our dogs were so happy and wonderfully exhausted after their visit and we would highly recommend Brooke to anyone looking to leave their dogs in a happy, safe, and caring home while traveling. We expect that we will use Brooke again in the future.”

“So grateful to find Kathleen and her family! Right away my pup ran to them, acclimated very well. Her demeanor was very welcoming and peaceful. She was also very responsive and sent updates throughout the duration of Page’s stay. He had an amazing time with them and came home his happy and normal self. To an individual with a pup this is so very important! I will definitely be sticking to boarding with Kathleen. 10 out of 10 experience! ❤️”

“Lisa was lovely to Interact with from beginning to end. Clearly a lover of dogs, she and he family both poured attention and love into Zuki upon first arrival. She sent us many pictures and updates, took him for walks, gave cuddles, and had descriptive feedback of his behavior when we returned. We were very satisfied with his stay there and would use her again if ever in the area!”

“Katrina is very friendly. She let us come into her home while Millie sniffed around and relaxed some before we left. Millie was anxious and Katrina sat down with her, pet her, and gave her some cheese to help her calm down. Katrina sent pictures of Millie and gave updates every day.”

“Jennifer!!!! Thank you both for your love for remi roux!! Thanks so much for the cuddles in the wee hours of the morning too!! She literally was so excited when we picked her up that she only made it a few moments in the car ride til she fell asleep!! Thank you for your “no rules” house We will definitely let remi come back soon!! Appreciate you both!! Frank Paula and Logan and Remi Roux”

I follow your feeding, medication, walking, and household instructions carefully and never force interaction with unfamiliar dogs. My goal is calm, secure, individualized care that helps both you and your dog feel comfortable.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Lake City on Rover is $38.85 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 62 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Lake City. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter 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.
Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local 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 Lake City 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 Lake City.
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 City 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 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.
