“Shanina takes such good care of Zelda while I am away- once again she came back to me happy and well taken care of. Thank you so much!! We will see you again soon! 🫶🏼”

“We can’t say enough good things about Myla and Jordan. They helped care for Rooster for a last minute pinch we were in and reassured us he was in good hands. They truly love animals and are well experienced in providing a safe and caring environment. They hosted our pup for a staycation at their house and we will use them again if Rooster joins us again in Memphis.”

“Mary was wonderful! She checked in with me often, sent updates, and made sure my dog was happy and comfortable the whole time. It gave me such peace of mind knowing my pup was in good hands. Very kind, reliable, and caring—I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!”

“Excellent as always. I’ve used Derek on multiple occasions and will continue to do so. I always get great photo updates, and Snoop seems to get along great with the crowd whenever he’s there.”

“Nicole was absolutely wonderful with Atlas! She was incredibly caring and attentive to his needs, and I loved that she sent me updates throughout his stay. It made such a difference being able to see him happy and settled, giving me 100% confident that he was in great hands and being well taken care of the entire time! 🤍 Would recommend and book again.”


“Gage is a Great guy! He's very laid back and a great dog sitter. He sent some Great pictures of Tonka, almost looked like professional photos. He updated me periodically to let me know my dog was doing well and enjoying himself. Tonka came home happy and that's all I can ask for. Gage delivered, I definitely recommend him!”

“Davis took Excellent care of our Teddy Bear. He sent pictures with updates daily. I would definitely use Davis again. Teddy loves walks and he was able to go on plenty of them. Highly recommend!”

“He is so good with Magnolia she has a place to run and play outside she comes home happy and I don’t worry about her when he takes care of her!!”


“Wow. This was an absolutely great experience. I had a plan for my dog when I booked my trip. That plan fell through and Abby saved the day. Based on my flight schedules that had already been booked, I had to have two different people drop off and pick up my dog. She worked with the schedules, she worked with my neighbor and my mom, she was fast to respond, and they made sure my dog had plenty of play time. She sent pictures and updates throughout the trip which always made me feel really good while out of town. Easily my go-to dog sitter at any time going forward.”


“Tara treated Eleanora like her very own. Our dog had so much fun and is totally worn out from playing, which is really saying something for a min pin!”

“Shelby & Spencer are so kind! Charlee had the best time! I couldn't be happier with the care she received. She came home totally exhausted and so happy — which tells me she got plenty of playtime, love, and attention. I’ll definitely use them again💙!”

“Chryschel was amazing! Copper loved her and she even sent home a bag of treats. She sent plenty of videos and photos. We will book her again. :-)”

All I can say is Professionalism at its best. The communication was great, the happiness on Sasha was evident of an Awesome experience. They are phenomenal. We are now at ease, knowing that we have found the perfect match. Words alone really can’t describe how we feel. Todd & Gail are truly God sent ❤️🌸❤️”

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover who has been surrounded by dogs for as long as I can remember. Caring for them isn’t just something I do—it’s something I genuinely enjoy. I’ve owned and cared for dogs throughout my life, so I understand that every dog has their own unique personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pup loves long walks, endless games of fetch, or simply wants someone to cuddle up with while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I treat every dog like they’re part of my own family, giving them plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and care. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your furry family member is in good hands. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pup and become someone you can count on whenever you need reliable, loving pet care! I am a stay at home mom with two little children. I am at home 90% of my day and weeks. When I am out of the house, I am not gone for more than two hours. I am able to attend to dogs and get them outside for playtime and potty breaks multiple times during the day, each day! I have a fenced in yard which allows safe play outside. I have full grass in the backyard as well as some shady areas for the dogs to run around! When the dogs are outside, I will be outside with them at all times.
The median cost per night for pet boarding in Lakeland is $40

I was able to book with Josef last minute, without hesitation she was so eager to meet my 2 girls and got us booked quickly. Price was right! She also kept us updated with messages and pictures. My girls had a blast with Josef. I felt confident leaving my girls with her. 10/10 recommended!!!

We love Amy and her family so much! Amy is always accommodating to our families every changing schedule without any fuss. She is very responsive and sends us lots of daily pictures of our pup having the time of his life at their home. I love being able to travel while being assured my pup is being loved and cared for by Amy 🤎

There are 311 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Lakeland. About 96% of Lakeland sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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 TN ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
