“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.”
“Wayne, his wife and Blair are wonderful ! Took exceptional care of our little bully. Can't recommend them enough ! It was like I sent her on a luxury vacation , lol. Highly recommend & we'll be using them again .”
“Luke and Melody seemed to have had a great time. They were even freshly bathed when I picked them up. Jessica and her husband are really good with dogs and I won't hesitate to book another stay for my fur kids.”
“Marion is fabulous. She’s knowledgable, responsible and clearly loves dogs. She took wonderful care of Tulip, my ten month old standard poodle puppy, for four days and provided the perfect combination of fun, structure and affection. Tulip clearly had a wonderful time, and Marion kept me informed throughout the stay with text messages and pictures. When it was time go home, Tulip left with a hand decorated gift bag containing homemade, all natural dog treats, toys and a lovely note from Marion. I feel very lucky to have found Marion and can’t recommend her highly enough. I'd love to have her take care of Tulip, again.”
“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.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Damaris took care of Sherman last week and we are beyond grateful for her excellent work. From the very beginning, she showed kindness, responsibility, and dedication. Sherman was happy, well cared for, and we felt at ease thanks to her updates and attention to detail. It’s clear she truly loves what she does, and that makes all the difference. We highly recommend her and will definitely trust her again in the future!”
About: I’ve always been asked to care for dogs in the recent years. A lot of family, family friends and neighbors have asked for me to walk, feed, and check in their pets while they’re at home. I currently work a full time job, and my schedule allows me to spend evening walks when it is not too hot outside for the dogs paws. I have a wooden high fence in my backyard. I can also crate pets, I have a big one with easy access to in my living room.
“Daniel was recommended by my dog's sitter because she was unavailable at the time. Great recommendation! Me and my son both said to each other that we felt very comfortable leaving Dutchess in his care.”
“Very happy with Juliana. They took exceptional care of Leo. He looked very happy with Juliana and came home contented. They kept him active and well fed. I will definitely be using your service again.l;”
About: We love animals, are very attentive, send videos and updates on their stay, and I also have a veterinary technology degree! We’re very comfortable administering meds or special needs animals! :) I own my own cleaning business, so I make my own schedule, and am able to be home, to tend to your adorable fur babies! Our yard is 3/4 fenced in, so we walk all pups 4-6 times a day. We are very hands on and love to go on walks around our super cute neighborhood.
“Kaylin was amazing. I felt so comfortable with Bear staying at Kaylin’s place, knowing he was in good hands. She kept us in the loop the whole time, with plenty of pictures of Bear’s adventures with her. I highly recommend Kaylin for any of your pets needs, she has experience and a love for animals that will make you feel at ease while away from your pup. A definite 5 out of 5 stars!”
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 worked at a vets office, I have volunteer at a humane society and I have worked at 2 zoo’s plus caring for my own animal as well, so lot of experience and lots of love with and for animals! I have 2 kids, 1 is in school so I am basically a stay at home mom, having to pick up my oldest from school is my only basic schedule I have 5 acres all fenced in and I have a dog run as well, I do have a horse and cow on the main part of the property
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.

David is fabulous. He took wonderful care of my two fur babies while we went on a trip. David gave medication to my Oliver daily. Cared for them lovingly. They loved him back. Gave me morning and evening pictures with comments about each of them. We couldn’t ask for a better person to care for them when we really needed someone.
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!!!

Sophie had the best care and the best time with Wayne and his family. She loved playing with Blaire. This was her first overnight, and our first time using Rover. Thanks for taking such good care of our baby. I highly recommend Wayne to care for your dog. He will treat your pup, like his own. Thank you! We will definitely use his service again, and again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Lake Placid on Rover is $33.3 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 50 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.
