She sent lots of photos and my dog was so happy to play with other sweet dogs and be in a loving home. He didn't want to go home when i came to get him lol! Will use again and will recommend. Thank you so much Rover.com and Shanique!”
“Kristen looked after our dog for several nights while we were out of town. We were a bit nervous since we've never used a service like this, but Kristen made the experience great. We received frequent check ins with pictures of our sweet dog, and quick responses to any questions. We'd absolutely use Kristen again.”
“Tavia is very kind, sent lots of pictures, and made sure she did everything possible to make my dog’s stay as pleasant as possible. I will certainly rebook when the need arises.”
“Montel was a great host for Keela! He was welcoming and made his stay comfortable. The back yard was humongous! Plenty of space for Keela to explore. I loved hearing he was very relaxed the entire stay and was well behaved indoors and out. I think he liked being on vacation. Needless to say anytime we travel to Atlanta, we’ve found our sitter. We truly appreciated the level of care Keela received.”
“Loleatha was absolutely wonderful with our poodle Zia! From the moment we dropped her off, it was clear Zia was in great hands. Loleatha was attentive, caring, and made sure Zia felt right at home. We came back to a happy, relaxed pup, which says it all. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!”

“Bradley went on a real “vacay” at Arnoldo’s home. This was such an awesome way to travel knowing my pup was in a safe, fun, and loving place. The pictures he sent daily were such quality that some are suited to be framed. Arnoldo is delightful, warm, calm and easy to get to know. All in All this Rover sitter is a keeper!! Five Star care given. Bradley ran right in and never looked back as I left. I highly recommend Arnoldo!!!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Quanisha was great with my baby Tosh! She accepted our booking last minute and was flexible to drop off and pick up. I took Tosh to the groomers before his stay and they trimmed him really low and cut him pretty badly around his neck. Quanisha made me aware at pick up which I truly appreciate. She sent tons of pictures and her children were sad to see Tosh go. We will definitely be booking with Quanisha again!”

She followed all of my requests and instructions and sent daily pics and videos of him. I was very comfortable leaving him with her and her family and I will definitely use them again. Lauren”
“We had a very good experience with Victoria. It was very convenient that she was close to our home and had a fenced yard. My dog has a lot of energy and was overly excited to be in a new place. During his stay, he seemed to be having fun from the pictures we received. In addition, all of his belongings we sent him with came back.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lake City
Mary Claire has been an absolute godsend over the past 3 years. She never fails to keep us informed about how our Koko is doing while we’re away. Koko loves her some Mary Claire and I trust her with health and safety of our furbaby when we’re gone. Highly highly recommend.
Adreana was my last-minute result, so I gave her a shot! I contacted her and she "Accepted" the boarding for my three (3) fur babies. Upon arrival at her place of residence, she met me at the driveway entrance with a big, welcoming smile. I knew then my worries could be put aside. She grabbed two of the harnesses, and we went inside and chatted for a bit, got introduced to her fur baby (Shitz Tzu), very friendly and well-mannered. My three (3) had found a new friend. She sent pictures and updates. Well book again with this sitter.. Oh, an inside joke: Lexi is not pregnant...

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Lake City is $36 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $40 per night. On Rover, 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 3,311 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 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 City 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 City 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 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 , 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 GA 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.
