“Robert was great with our family dog Izzy. She is truly a member of our family and we always feel bad leaving her behind when we go out of town and Robert did a wonderful job sending pictures and videos to let us know how she is doing. Would definitely recommend Robert and plan on using him again in the future.”

“We had a great experience boarding with Susie! We felt very comfortable leaving our dog in her care. In fact, after seeing the photos and getting reports, we were worried our dog may not want to come home with us! Thank you!”

“Betsy was wonderful. Very accommodating, easy to communicate with, took great care of my dog, and went above and beyond to help with his training while he was staying with her.”

“Martha and Eric were wonderful sitters for our dog Ollie. They were communicative and flexible with our schedule. We loved the pics and videos Martha sent us while we were away and appreciated the effort made to ensure Ollie got early outside time in their big backyard and nice walks during a MN week where it was sweltering. We could tell Martha and Eric are genuine dog lovers and can handle energetic dogs like ours! We look forward to the next time Ollie gets to stay over.”

“Our pug LOVED his 4-day stay with Brenda and her family! Our little guy got along great with her two pit bulls and really bonded with their little boy. The dogs played and ran together in the fenced in yard. Our pug came home happy and ready to nap. Each day, I received a couple of photos with a brief update which I appreciated. This was a short-notice booking, and I am so grateful that Brenda was available. We will definitely arrange dog-sitting with Brenda in the future.”

“Megan was the greatest auntie our dog could wish for! She is very sweet, helpful, and organized. We got daily updates and pictures that were really fun for us to read and look at at the end of our days. Definitely recommend her if you’re looking for a trustworthy and fun sitter!”

“Katie and her pups were just what our Scout needed. We go away for weekends and he can’t go with us so it’s comforting to know he’s in good hands. Katie provides that, and updates with cute photos and comments”

“Our dog Keela is happy to ‘vacation’ with Rachel. This was a repeat visit, and it was easy to see that Keela is a happy camper at her house. Rachel is an excellent communicator, the daily check-ins are much appreciated. Until next time…”

“Any was great and really flexible with me as far as pick up and drop off times. I think her rates are really reasonable and she was awesome at sending me pics so I would be comfortable knowing my Tucker was doing fine. I will definitely use her again!”

“Everything about this experience was positive. They took such good care of my big baby. We were traveling for a really sad funeral, and leaving our big baby Moose behind was really hard for all of us. Zachary and Kaci sent exactly enough photos to let us know he was having the time of his life, which put my mind at ease and also made my kids smile. Pick up and drop off were quick. They were flexible and we will definitely book with them again.”

“Hannah is amazing! We've left our girl with her twice now, and she took really good care of her and adapted to her needs for 100%! Thank you so much, we'll definitely be back ❤️”

“Miranda was great with our dog, Jax. He can be shy at first, but he warmed up to her quickly. She provided plenty of pictures throughout his stay as well. I would use her again!”

“I’m really happy with my decision to trust Loraine with cat sitting. She loves cats and is very knowledgeable about them. She is super friendly and accommodating, and by the time I left after drop off I felt like my cats would feel very comfortable! She provided lots of updates and communication which meant a lot, and I know the cats were as happy and safe as possible in a new environment. I would recommend Lori!!!”

“Promise and her family were awesome! Great communication and care of my Betty. Highly recommend and looking forward to some play dates with Betty’s new buddies. She’s very kind and I did not worry at all leaving her in her care. I love that Betty and Promise’s daughter bonded 😁 GREAT sitter!”

“Amy is the best and most ideal dog sitter. She is very experienced, loves dogs, and has a wonderful personality. Her home, neighborhood, and lifestyle is well set up for happy boarding dogs. We are so grateful that our pup could spend a week with Amy.”

“Shevon and Ian took excellent care of my poodle, Basca. They even set aside a request to watch another dog because it was her first time and she can get overwhelmed. And they understood about her being a flight risk. They sent me pictures and reports every day. In addition to all of this, they’re just as nice as they can be. I absolutely recommend them! -Tracy Wilson”

“Celia was fantastic! She sent lots of photos and updates of our dog Rosie, and was super attentive and helpful throughout the 2 week stay. We plan to book with her again!!”

“They were the most amazing family to have watch our two dogs. We reached out with very short notice and they took them in right away. They gave us updates every day and always sent pictures. Best family on Rover!”

Susan was absolutely amazing, we cannot recommend enough. Excellent communication throughout the stay with updates and pictures. Susan has an obvious care and warmth for animals which gave us peace of mind and reassurance. We found the perfect place for our little guy to be when we are away. Thank you 😊

Andrew was amazing and professional with his communication, updates and care for our Yorkie last minute, who is highly anxious and had been displaying some defensive/aggressive behaviors. He not only cared for him well, I felt confident and reassured each interaction with Andrew, even through the multitude of challenges he faced with our little guy. I felt extreme gratitude to have Andrew watch our dog. he came home happy & calm.

Lorraine is so, so sweet and clearly adores every animal she meets. Our mastiff/newfie mix, Moose, had a wonderful stay with her. She gave him tons of love and kept him active! It meant a lot to us that she was able to understand and keep up with his medications and supplements as well. She kept us very well updated on his days. We will absolutely trust Lorraine with Moose again!
Fernanda did a wonderful job watching Mia! She, her daughter, and their dog were all so sweet, and Mia seemed to feel right at home and get along with everyone really well. We really appreciated the photos Fernanda sent while we were away—they gave us peace of mind and helped us feel connected to Mia while we were missing her.

I had such a great experience with Lisa! She was kind, communicative, and took excellent care of Nala. She kept me updated and made me feel completely comfortable knowing Nala was in good hands. Everything went smoothly, and Nala came home happy and well cared for. I would absolutely book with Lisa again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Lauderdale is $44 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $61 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 2,672 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Lauderdale. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Lauderdale can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Lauderdale home-away-from-home, 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 Lauderdale.
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 Lauderdale 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 , 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 .
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 MN 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.
