“Margaret is the best dog sitter ever! Kyri was well taken care of during our trip. I felt at peace knowing she was in good hands. Margaret is our go-to dog sitter now!”
“We just returned from a two week trip over seas leaving our beloved Border Collie, Ellie in the care of Mary. This is the second time we have relied on Mary to help us with pet care for an extended period. True to our past experience with Mary and our expectations Ellie received excellent care and special attention. Mary obviously loves dogs and knows how important they are to the owner and their family. She is highly organized, kind and attentive to the pet’s special needs. Ellie looked great when I picked her up at Mary’s home and behaved as her normal self appearing the happy and calm dog I dropped off two weeks ago. Thank you Mary for enabling us to leave our Ellie for an extended vacation without the worry.”
“We were coming in from out of town and we were in a crunch to get a sitter for our dog, and we're so glad we found Stephanie! She took such good care of our dog and was incredibly responsive and communicative at every point of the process. We'll definitely book with her every time we're in Erie!”

“Nadine was superb! She took excellent care of our dog and updated us daily. She has a very nice set-up for dogs-inside and outside. My dog was very relaxed and happy during her stay. When we picked her up, she was playing with Nadine’s adorable Pomeranian and wasn’t in a hurry to leave. We were very pleased with Nadine!”
“We boarded Griffin again with Meagan, overnight. We had planned to pick him up at 4 PM the next day. something came up at the last minute and I requested doggy daycare with her, to keep him until 9:30 PM.

Jax was super happy with his recent stay with Margaret and her hubby. He was happy to hang out with the other dog they were boarding at the same time. Margaret sent daily pics and updates on Jax’s stay. We were very pleased with the care and attention he received and will book again with Margaret. 😃

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Lake City on Rover is $32.1 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 65 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 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.
100% of Lake City 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 Lake City 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 PA 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.
