“Mason and Kassandra did an awesome job taking care of my senior dog. They made sure she received her med each day and sent me daily updates. I would definitely use them again.”
“Excellent sitter. She was able to take us last minute for a 5 day stay. Our pup was well taken care of. Highly recommend and we will use her again if we are ever in the area again.”
“We were recommended Mrs. Vlasta's Boarding services when we urgently needed them the following morning. When we contacted her, we were fortunate to find she was available, she immediately said yes, and not only that, but she was also able to pick up our Golden Retriever from the hotel where we were staying. She was very generous, kind, and full of affection for our Van Gogh. She also sent us many messages and photos. We could see how comfortable, attentive, and playful our dog was during his short stay. We recommend her 100% and hope to use her services once again!”
“Marie was such a sweetheart. She has a big heart for dogs and took very good care of mine. My baby had plenty of room to run in the backyard and she sent lots of pictures. Will use her again.”
“Nacho and Gigi love their stay with Sary. She makes them feel like home. She shared pictures and videos during their stay. They had a great time! Thank you Sary!”
“I know why Raquel is given the badge of a Five Star Sitter⭐️ As a first timer to use the services of a 🐕 sitter, and being unsure about the transition of trust for the care of lovable Snowflake🐾 Raquel made sure I felt comfortable with communicating with her as well as her texting with photos of smiling Snowflake😁 So, I was a happy too!! With my🐕approval, I definitely will use Raquel again💯🐾”
“What a wonderful feeling to know your fur babies are being taken care of and genuinely loved on, while you are away!!! We received several updates, pictures and videos during their stay with Eyran. They, along with their belongings came back clean. I’m fairly sure Eyran vacuumed their beds! Thank you so much Eyran for opening your home and your heart to Bella and Koa. We appreciate you!”
“EXCELLENT LOVING CARE!!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! My 17 year old, special needs, completely blind, silky mix dog, Paisley, who also has dementia, stayed with Ms Annette for 8 days while we were on vacation. We were able to bring Paisley to meet Ms Annette prior to boarding her. Things could not have gone better. Ms. Annette was patient, kind, caring, and gave Paisley time to come to her and be comfortable. Her home was spotless as was the separate grooming / boarding area. Dogs have use of / access to both the boarding and home areas, as well as a spacious, outdoor, shady, grassy backyard area to play. Ms Annette even allows dogs on her couch. Because of her age and special needs status, it became impossible to leave Paisley at a typical kennel as they were unable to provide the specialized care and attention she needed. Ms. Annette was able to provide the specialized care needed, provided a lot of love and belly rubs, and even taught Paisley to use her doggy door!! She kept Paisley under her usual home routine which resulted in a smooth transition home. When going to pick her up, Ms Annette greeted me with Paisley in her arms. Paisley was clean, as were her doggy blanket and bed. During her stay, Ms Annette sent daily updates, photos, and videos, confirming Paisley was adjusting well, had made new friends. Ms Annette is 100% recommended. Great care! Lots of love!! Communicative! Board your pet worry free knowing they’ll be very well cared for with Ms. Annette!”
“This was our first time leaving our two “boys” for overnight. Katie was great with them. She provided messages, photos and videos letting us know that they were doing fine. We are booking with her again for our upcoming trip. I really appreciate the care and support she provided.”
“I would not hesitate to leave my dogs with Mary at any time. I received some nice pictures, I could tell the dogs were well cared for and spoiled... just like they are at home. Thanks!”
“Muy contnta con su servicio y mi hijo perruno muy feliz , ella va a ser mi dog sitter permanente, siempre pendiente a los mensajes y dejandome saber como hiba todo cada vez q le prwguntaba. Mas q agradecida”
“We could not thank Daniela enough for taking care of our Pepper for just a couple of days. We will be on a longer trip and have already booked with Daniela to board our Pepper. We find her to be responsive and responsible. We highly recommend her. 🙏🏼🙏🏼”
“Christ & his Wife were absolutely amazing taking care of our doggie Charlie during his week stay w/them. They showed so much love, dedication, patience & compassion for Charlie that is it hard to put it into words. Only a true animal lover like ourselves are capable of providing such love & care. Christ & his wife are the absolute best people you can find & trust with your pet. Our Charlie was little sick & needed to be administered some meds, Christ knew exactly how to do it & did it to the letter as prescribed by Charlie Vet. He also gave us daily updates about Charlie with pictures & even a video chat with out pet. We highly recommend Christ as a caregiver for your pet, we can not thank him enough..”
“Lisa and her son Eli did a wonderful job taking care of our Koda. It was his first time staying away from home since we got him, and it seemed like he had a great vacay . Will totally feel comfortable leaving him there the next time we are in need of a fur baby sitter.”
“Angel was very kind and welcoming to my two pups. He was very gracious to accept taking them on such short notice, it was less than 24 hours. It was also nice to know that my dogs would have friends to play with while I was away, because they also have two friendly dogs. 10/10 would recommend them and will be using their services again if needed.”
“Libertad was such a nice lady. Responded daily with videos and pictures. Lucy and Ginger were treated like family. We were in the process of getting a new place and Libertad happily modified our reservation many times. She is a gem and a blessing. Your furry family will be treated the best.”
“I am very picky when it comes to who watches my dog. Maria seemed trust worthy from the start and I am so glad I chose her to watch my pup!!! She was very kind and adapting when I had some issues and couldn't drop my dog off in time. Maria was able to pick up my dog, no issues! I got the cutest photos from her while I was away and I was so happy to see my pup felt safe and comfortable!! I will definitely be using Maria again!!”
“Stacey did an outstanding job. You could tell Ben was well treated, happy, and definitely well taken care of. We will use Stacey's services next time we travel. Thank you, Stacey.”
“This was my first time using Rover and although I was hesitant I’m glad I went through with it. Christian is really gifted at what he does for your pets. He is attentive, extremely patient and will consistently keep you updated about your pet’s wellbeing. I would suggest Christian to look after your pet.”

Raquel and her family are excellent dog sitters! You can tell they really care about what they do, and love your pet while they have them! We would highly recommend her and her family if you’re in this area. We drove 30 minutes out of the way to have them watch our Ollie, and it was well worth the drive!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Lake Wales on Rover is $31.5 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 1,045 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Lake Wales. 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.
96% of Lake Wales 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 Wales 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 Wales 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 Wales.
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 Wales 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.
