“Angelina, took great care of our two dogs. They were excited to see her when we dropped them off. They were happy to see us but ran back to Angelita several times before we left. The dogs were happy and all their bedding and bowls were clean when we got them back. We will definately use Angelina again.”
“Charissa, Shawn and family, provided EXCEPTIONAL care for our boy. He had such a great time that all he wanted to do was nap when he got home. (Which is fantastic as he is a high energy boy!) They had to navigate losing power to a horrible storm and yet still kept him safe and cool and provided updates as they could. It really felt like leaving him with family! 10/10 will book again!”
“This was the first time using Rover… Vicky was absolutely a dream. My dog’s loved her family and her little girl Nova! (her dog) slept with my little Frenchie all night she kept me updated on what they ate and I felt very comfortable leaving my dog’s for the first time with someone new…. I will be definitely be leaving my dogs with her and her family again!”
About: I've taken care of dogs for over a decade from high energy (I have a border collie) to low energy (I also have a shih tzu), elderly, and everything in between. I'd love to make your dog's day by taking them on a walk or giving them an incredible play time. Same goes for your cats! Whether your pets love activity or simply want someone to watch them sniff in the backyard or hang on the couch, I'd love to bring a highlight to their day. Right now, Friday nights through Sunday are the times I have completely free to dedicate to helping take care of your pets. I'm hoping to add more times soon and options to board. As someone who searches for hours to find the right person to watch my pets, I know how hard it can be to trust someone new to take care of your fur family. Whether it's pictures, reassuring texts, following your instructions exactly, or all 3 I will do my best to make your pets as happy and healthy as possible. I offer drop in visits and walks, so please let me know what you are and aren't comfortable with and I will make sure they are well cared for while giving you as many updates as you'd like!
“I booked a very last minute week of overnight boarding for my 6 month old puppy Puck. D and B were both great and clearly well versed in puppy training issues. Nice family home. Puck even got to sleep with their 11 child every night! They sent photos daily with updates and accommodated my schedule changing for his drop off and pickup. I will definitely be using them again.”
“This was Arthur's second stay with Betsy and Ron. We were able to really enjoy our time away and relax because we knew he was being well taken care of while we were gone, and got a picture or two most days showing him having a good time. We so appreciate the great care and attention he received! Thanks Betsy and Ron - you're the best!”
“Heather was wonderful! She took great care of our boy and sent us plenty of updates. The other dogs that were there were very sweet. Will be coming back again!”
“Genalind is reliable, trustworthy, and incredibly caring! Her and her family watched our pup - Hershey - for 10 days and provided excellent care. Communication was perfect throughout the entire stay, she provided both pictures and videos, daily, of our pup enjoying his stay at her home. Hershey was so happy and content when we got home. 10/10 service—we will definitely book again!”
“Sheree was soooo sweet, and so was her dog, Charley. She watched Chase for three days, and I can tell he had a good time. I will definitely book with her again in the future!”
“Mai was fantastic! We were nervous since it was our first time using Rover. Mai sent us updates and pictures to ease our worries! Nalah was very well taken care of and cared for! Mai even went above and beyond and brought Nalah to the venue to get wedding pictures with us! We would definitely let Nalah stay with Mai again!”
“Stacy and family took such great care of my 2 year old pooch Graham, a rather large and beautiful handful of a puppy. My anxiety of boarding my family member left me the second I met her, I definitely recommend her and I think Graham already misses her love and care. Thank you Stacy!”
“Tereza did a wonderful job with my dog. Tater Tot clearly liked her, and I came home to a happily tired dog. She was very communicative and took great pictures. It's obvious that she played with him a ton and even brought him on a nice long hike with her pup. Her dog was very sweet and polite. I felt like my dog was in really good hands. I hope she's available every time I go out of town.”
About: I’ve grown up always having pets in the family and knew I had a passion for animal care. I’ve looked after senior dogs, puppies, female dogs in heat, rescues with trust issues, and dogs with Vision problems. I work from home so I have very open availability and I have a car so I’m able to commute to and from different rover jobs. I have a small backyard for potty time and a big park across the street with a path to go on the walks. I have a 25-30lb dog that’s with me off and on and a cat with me full time. They both love meeting new friends and warm up quite quickly to new animals staying with us.
“Tara did a fantastic job- will definitely request her again. My senior dog was well cared for and the pics helped keep us updated so we didn’t have to worry- highly recommend!”
“Julie, her husband Tim, and their doggy Meeko were such amazing hosts to our pup! We were in Lancaster from out of state for our wedding weekend, and these folks put us so much at ease. All of the updates showed how happy Chubs was - or also how tired he was from getting so much play and love all day! Thank you Julie and Tim!!!!”
“Michael was very accommodating regarding booking my pup’s stay being that it was somewhat last minute. This was the first time I had booked with Michael, and everything was great. He was very attentive and communicated with me throughout the three-day stay. He did Pup Painting with her, and she came home with her masterpiece! I know my baby was taking care of, and I will definitely be booking with him again in the future!”
“Deb was terrific, her home was wonderful wirh a nice large yard set far back off the road. She was very accomodating considering our last minute request for an overnight stay for our pup Dyson. He came home pretty happy!”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Lancaster is $50
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lancaster
We were very happy with Danielle and Briana when we picked up our baby boy. He didn’t seem stressed out like he normally does with other places. Actually he seemed very, very happy and in a much better mood than he normally is. From other places we have went he comes home like he’s been traumatized and it takes a week to recover. He was his normal self, actually more relaxed even on the same day. They did a great job with him.
Mai is amazing! We were very hesitant about leaving dexter and how he would do. He came back a new dog having experienced things with Mai that we normally wouldn't have done with him from going to the dog park and socializing with other dogs. Throughout the whole time Mai provided updates and put us at ease with this being the first time we boarded Dexter. Thank you so much for everything Mai and we will definitely be using Mai again to care for our fur baby.
Angelita was amazing with our puppy, Maui! She kept us updated throughout the stay with great communication and lots of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. Maui is a high-energy puppy, and it was obvious she had the best time playing with the other dogs. She came home happy, well cared for, and we could tell she was treated like family. We were so happy with the experience that we’ve already booked Maui’s next stay with Angelita. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and attentive sitter!
10000000/10 recommend!! Tereza took such great care of Sophie while I was away at the beach. She sent lots of pictures and always kept me updated. It was so nice to know Sophie was in such good hands while I was away. I will definitely be using her again for future vacations!
Honey’s second stay with Chris (this time for just under a week) was just as wonderful as the first! Honey loves Chris and is best friends with his dog, Olive. Chris spends plenty of time exercising, playing with, and entertaining Honey, so I know she’s getting lots of attention and care while I’m away. He also sends tons of photos and updates throughout her stay. It’s clear how much he cares about the dogs he watches and I never have to worry when Honey is with him. I couldn’t recommend Chris more highly!
Austin was amazing! He was thorough with taking notes and understanding what my fur baby needed to stick with her routine. Communication was consistent throughout and I never had to wonder how things were going. I had confidence throughout that Roxy was in good hands. Everything went great!
Genalind is reliable, trustworthy, and incredibly caring! Her and her family watched our pup - Hershey - for 10 days and provided excellent care. Communication was perfect throughout the entire stay, she provided both pictures and videos, daily, of our pup enjoying his stay at her home. Hershey was so happy and content when we got home. 10/10 service—we will definitely book again!
Jenn was sensitive to our dog's anxiety, especially since this was his first time away from home without us. He took to her right away and she would send pictures and updates to us. She accommodated our schedule when it changed and we were able to come sooner than planned to retrieve him. We are glad to recommend her to others and will use her again as future needs arise.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Lancaster on Rover is $44.4 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 672 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Lancaster. 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.
92% of Lancaster 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 Lancaster 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 Lancaster 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 Lancaster.
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 Lancaster 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 PA 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.
