“It was so nice to meet Dave. First time user of this sight and was put right at ease with how comforting Dave made my shih tzu feel at home in his home. Dave sent photos throughout the day which also helped me know he was being attentive and loving to my boy. I feel they made a bond that now I can work with and know my Cody will not only be comfortable...but happy beside his new friend Dave when I am not around. I will be calling on him again and would recommend him to anyone who is hesitant to use a "stranger" to watch their precious loved one. In moments, with the manner that Dave conducts himself, they will be fast friends.”
“April 23 - 23, 2026 Once again, Wayne's dog sitting was on point!! I received daily updates via pictures of how my boy, Bear, was doing. Like I said before, I would highly recommend Wayne as a perfect dog sitter. Wayne has officially become my go-to dog sitter. Thanks again.”
“After reading the reviews, I booked Jessica. Brought my girl for one week. She ran right to them. I could tell she was going to be happy there. I met her family which were kind and caring. I know my pup was happy. She was in great hands. I will definitely bring her back. Thanks Jessica!”
“Damaris was an excellent caregiver for our Naia. Our dog got sick and Damaris took her to the hospital. She was with Naia at all times, gave her her medication, and sent us photos every day. We are very grateful to Damaris.”
“Our Aussie Doodle seemed to love being there. She played with their dog and she slept on the bed with their teen aged son. She took to these people like she had known them all her life. She even jumped up on the son's lap and our doodle just doesn't do that to people she doesn't know. I would definitely use this lady again to watch our dog.”
“Marion was a fantastic sitter for our dog Trigger! She has the perfect home and yard to ensure that he is able to spend adequate time both indoors and out. She worked on some training and kept him fully entertained! Marion provided regular updates with photos and videos. I would not hesitate to recommend her for any sitting needs!”
“Daniel has watched our dog several times now and has been terrific with her. I can tell when we drop her off that Izzy is always happy to see Daniel and does not shy away from him, as though she were afraid or uncomfortable in any way, which are signs that I watch for when boarding my dog. Daniel has always been helpful, has always responded quickly when texting him and even though we could probably find someone closer to us, we prefer to have Daniel watch Izzy.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was 16 I had vet class for 3 years in my school and 1 year of nursing. I worked at the humane society of highlands county in Sebring for almost 5 months now. I love animals with my whole heart. I am available on the weekends and weekdays sometimes on the holidays as well . So I am available to play and help out with your pups. I have a fenced in backyard to keep your fur baby safe. If you need I can cage at night if they are not potty trained
About: I have been a dedicated dog owner since I was 23 years old, and caring for my own dog has given me daily hands-on experience with feeding routines, walks, playtime, basic training, and maintaining a safe and structured environment. I understand how important it is for pet parents to feel confident and secure when leaving their dog with someone else. I offer a calm home environment with personalized attention, and I only accept a limited number of dogs at a time to ensure safety and comfort. I share my home with my own dog, Dobby, a 7-year-old neutered male pitbull. He is calm, friendly, and well-socialized. For everyone’s safety, I require up-to-date vaccinations and always schedule a meet & greet before confirming bookings to make sure both dogs are comfortable together. I prioritize supervision and a structured environment at all times. My goal is to make every dog feel relaxed, cared for, and truly at home. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I am home most of the time. Dogs in my care are rarely left alone and receive consistent supervision, scheduled walks, playtime, and structured feeding routines. I prioritize providing a calm and stable environment where your dog will feel safe and attended to throughout the day. I live in a house with a securely fenced yard where dogs can safely play and exercise. My home environment is calm, clean, and structured. I share my home with my neutered, well-socialized dog, and all interactions are supervised. If needed, I am able to separate dogs to ensure everyone’s safety and comfort. I require up-to-date vaccinations and always schedule a meet & greet prior to confirming bookings to ensure a good fit.
About: I have been walking and boarding dogs for 5 years, gaining experience with a variety of breeds, including large dogs in my household. Currently, I am in the process of becoming a certified dog trainer, and I will be working part-time in this role in the meantime. I have some days off during the week and occasionally on weekends to care for dogs. I am available anytime from 9 AM to 5 PM. If you need earlier availability, please feel free to reach out and request it. I want to assure you that I will be very respectful and responsible while caring for your pup at your home and in mine. I will not touch or look at anything other than items related to the dogs. All I ask is that the dog items are well-maintained and that their food and water bowls are clean. I will walk and feed your dog according to your specific instructions, giving them plenty of love while you’re away. Additionally, I always make sure they are clean and have enough water, especially since we’re in Florida! 😄

About: What sets me apart is over 10 years of hands on experience caring for my own dogs. I’ve been through every stage of a pup’s life from energetic, curious puppies to the tender care senior dogs need. I understand the patience, consistency, and love it takes to keep dogs happy and healthy. Because of this, I treat every dog like family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away.” Right now, I have plenty of free time which means I can give your pet my full attention.I enjoy making pet care part of my daily routine from morning walks to playtime and cuddles throughout the day. Having the flexibility in my schedule allows me to keep pets on their normal routines and make sure they always feel cared for and comfortable. In my home, I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable by giving them a calm space, regular walks, and plenty of playtime and affection just like I do with my own dogs. I follow their normal routines as closely as possible so they feel right at home. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and stick to the pet’s usual schedule for feeding, walks, and rest. My goal is always to keep pets happy, loved, and stress free, whether they’re with me or staying in their own familiar environment.
About: I have used Rover for my fur baby, and was very impressed. Now I get to stay home and love on my fur baby, and I am looking forward to taking care of your fur baby. To add, I have been taking care of dogs from the age 12, and have experience with pets with special needs. Look forward to meeting you and your baby!

David was absolutely incredible with our Mickey. First time ever using him and would highly recommend. So unbelievably accommodating and kind. Lots of pictures sent making out time away much easier knowing how well she was being provided for. Will be using hopefully only David from here on out!!!
Wayne took great care of Dakota! His dog is very sweet and got along great with my dog. He sent a lot of pictures to keep me updated while I was away and was very good at communicating. My dog enjoyed her own vacation at his house. Will definitely be booking with him for my next trip

FAQs for Boarding - Lake Placid
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Lake Placid on Rover is $33.3 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 49 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Lake Placid. 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 Placid 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 Placid.
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 Placid 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.
