“This was our dog’s first time staying with Melinda and we will definitely be booking with her in the future. She was easy to communicate with, sent picture updates, and our dog was happy and well-cared for.”
“Hannah was so great with our Fiona - she was great with updates and even offered to talk Fiona on a little hike one of the days we were gone. Hannah was a great communicator and despite some travel delays, was flexible with the drop off & pickup times on either side of the trip. We’ll certainly book with Hannah again in the future!”
“Amber & Chris were fantastic. They took great care of our Finn and Theo while we were gone for a long weekend. Both of our boys need a bit more attention than other dogs, but Amber & Chris had no issues with that. We can tell that they were well loved and we really appreciated the daily updates and photos. We’d definitely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone!”

I really appreciated the updates and photos she sent — it gave me so much peace of mind knowing Benji was happy and in good hands. When my husband picked him up, he looked so content, which says it all! In fact we are so happy with the care she gave our Benji we will be booking her for the next trip coming up here very soon!”

I was able to fully relax while out of town and Anthony was so flexible to work with. Would highly recommend him and his puppy family for others seeking a reliable and fun pet sitter!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lakewood
Mike was fantastic ! He and his family took great care of my dog and provided daily updates with photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear they genuinely cared and treated my dog like their own. I came home to a happy, well cared for pup. I would definitely book with them again and highly recommend them!
Lauren’s kind spirit and calm personality were wonderful for our socially awkward old boy! We don’t have to be anxious anymore to go out of town because Jack can stay with his new best friend. The photos and updates always put our mind at ease that Jack was safe and cared for. Thank you, Lauren!
Amazing pet sitter! Sara has a wonderful, calming energy and was incredibly gentle and reassuring with our senior dog. The meet and greet was a fantastic touch, the huge backyard was perfect for the dogs to roam and sniff, and the frequent photo/video updates kept us completely at ease. Will absolutely use Sara again!"

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Lakewood on Rover is $49.95 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 6,349 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Lakewood. 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 Lakewood 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 Lakewood 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 Lakewood 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 Lakewood.
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 Lakewood 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 CO 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.
