“I had such a wonderful experience with Maria ! She took amazing care of my dog and treated him with so much love and attention. I really appreciated the pictures and updates she sent—they gave me peace of mind knowing he was happy and well cared for. It was clear that she genuinely loved him and made him feel right at home. I highly recommend her and would absolutely trust her with my dog again! ❤️🐾”
“Teddy always has an amazing time at Emilies! He had a ball playing with the other doggies in their beautiful backyard!! A doggie paradise!! Thank- you sooo much for taking such good care of my energetic boy!”
“This was my first time using Rover. My dog seems fine. However, next time, I would like photo updates of him inside and interacting with the sitter. I did appreciate the photo updates of his outside time. Overall, Eduardo was great.”
“Valerie and her daughter were fantastic with Bentley. They sent us lots of pictures and were very flexible with scheduling when we were running behind with pickup! Would book again in the future.”
“Mary was such a delight to deal with. This was my dog first time and she made it easy and even scheduled a meet to make sure my Nova was comfortable. She gave me updates and encouraged me to provide anything that would make it easier for my dog stay.”
“Becca was really attentive, and every night I would get updates and pictures on how Bella was doing. Very easy to planned to whole thing, and more importantly you could easily tell Bella was well taken care of, and that she had a great time.”
“Leaving an English bulldog with someone is not always easy because they need extra attention and they can be stubborn at times. Sian was amazing with our Canela from beginning to end. She kept us updated with sweet pictures and videos, and you could tell Canela felt comfortable and cared for. If you are looking for someone caring, responsible, and loving with animals, we absolutely recommend Sian. We could tell Canela was treated with love and care during her stay.”
“Sandra was great with my two girls, a 4-year-old Labrador and a 6 year old golden/border collie mix. We did a meet and greet ahead of time to make sure my dogs would get along with her older dog, and it was obvious that she was a natural at dealing with different dog personalities. They just moved, and now have a nice backyard where the dogs can play and a screened in porch area. Their little girl is also great with the animals. Sandra works at home, so she's with them most of the day. When I returned, they were happy and well-adjusted. I've already rebooked for August! Great experience!”
“Would definitely recommend Kelly! We are so glad we found Kelly and Kyle! They looked after our dog for an extended stay and we were so grateful for all the help and amazing care they gave. Kelly sent lots of updates including fun photos and videos which we loved! The stay included lots of walks and playtime in their yard with their amazing dog Eggie. Would absolutely trust Kelly to look after our dog again.”
“Natalie and her family are amazing! My pup was well taken care of and spoiled with belly rubs and treat. Highly recommend Natalie and her lovely family. Bane already can’t wait to go back!”
“We adopted a dog after we booked a stay at a resort that did not allow dogs. Judy and her family stepped up to help us watch Beluga. I was a nervous parent having only had him for 10 weeks before leaving him in a strange town away from home. Judy and her children put us at ease and it was evident that they cared for our precious boy.”
“I can’t recommend Jasmine highly enough for anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and truly exceptional dog sitter! I’ve had the pleasure of leaving my dog, Riley, in her care twice now, and each time she has gone above and beyond to ensure Riley is comfortable, happy, and well-cared-for. Jasmine has an amazing ability to connect with animals, and Riley absolutely adores her! I always feel a great sense of peace knowing that Riley is in such loving hands. Not only does Jasmine provide top-notch care, but she also goes the extra mile to keep me updated, sending photos and little notes about Riley’s day, which makes the experience so much better. She genuinely treats Riley as if she were her own, which is so reassuring. I feel completely confident and comfortable leaving Riley with her, whether it’s for a few hours or several days at a time. Jasmine is a gem, and I’m so grateful to have found her!”
“Happy doggie, Happy mommie Went to visit prior to boarding and the home is full of love, clean and welcoming, Oscar and his family are everyday people who does every day stuff. During my trip I got lots of updates and pictures and she seemed so happy getting her snugs. My Gracie is a bit of an introvert so it warmed my heart to recieve the pictures of love I picked her up and she was her normal doggie self, no signs of stress, once I opened my front door she had the zoomies and it was at that point I knew I made the right choice 100 out of 10 would definitely recommend Looking for for my next vacation so I book again”
“They were incredible! They sent so many updates and humorous notes throughout the trip. I knew my girl was well taken care of and we will definitely use them again!”
“We are very thankful to have found your lovely family. Our Coco had a great time and we are confident he was in good hands. We appreciated and looked forward to the daily pictures and catch ups. Thank you for being a second home.”
“Karlee was by far the best sitter we have ever had. When we dropped the dogs off we felt so comfortable leaving them. Then when we picked them up and got home they acted mad that we took them from their friends. That’s when you know you’ve got the best sitter. We will definitely book with her again.”
““Farrah and crew were absolutely fantastic dog sitters!! They provided excellent care for my furry friend Chase while I was away in Europe. Regular updates, lots of love and attention, and they even went above and beyond by taking my dog on extra walks. Highly recommend!””
“Finding someone you trust to watch your dog is a big deal! Adrian was wonderful with Mica and sent many pictures where he looked very happy. The doggy playmates were wonderful for him. Adrian has an obvious love and compassion and it shows in Mica when he came home. We will be using her again.”
“This was our first time using Rover. It took us a little while to find the right person but we feel like we did! Valeria was amazing right from the start. My fiancee and I felt comfortable leaving our puppy with her before leaving for our trip. She sent updates 2-3 times a day and Zoe had an amazing time.”

Scott was amazing with our dog! He gave us great updates throughout our trip, and it was clear that our dog was having the best time with him. They became best friends, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We highly recommend Scott and will definitely be using him again!
Adriana was so awesome. I was traveling from Tampa and my normal Rover back in Tampa couldn’t watch my dog and Adriana made sure my pup felt right at home. She has two other little ones and she had a great time at her place. I ended up booking her again that week and my pup was so excited to go back. I will be using her again!
Ariel was truly incredible! She loved Billie so much I don’t think she even noticed I was gone. It can be hard leaving your pet with a stranger for the first time but Ariel made me feel so comfortable and gave me constant updates! I will 100% rebook with her in the future!
Daniela was great!! She kept me updated and sent videos and pics every day. When it came time to pick him up, I could tell Loki really got to bond with her. He seemed sad to leave. I’m so glad I found the perfect sitter for my boy. I definitely will be rebooking next time I go away.
Angela was the absolute best! I can tell she loves animals and truly cares for the dogs! She was great at communicating my pups wellbeing through pictures and text. Angela’s house was very clean and spacious for the dogs and the fenced in backyard was perfect! Angela provides everything necessary to make her home feel like their home. My dog will defiantly be a return guest at Angela’s residence! Thank you!!
Ivana was amazing. She sent many pics and kept me updated throughout the whole process/stay. I would 100% recommend her. She’s such a kind and understanding person. My dog definitely enjoyed his stay with Ivana and I didn’t have to worry or stress at all, while on vacation.
Tracey was absolutely amazing with my dog! I felt completely comfortable leaving him in her care and knew he was in great hands the entire time. She sent me lots of pictures and video updates, which I really appreciated and gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. You can tell she genuinely loves and cares about the dogs she watches. My dog was happy, comfortable, and very well taken care of. I would 100% recommend Tracey to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable dog sitter. I will definitely be using her again! 🐾❤️

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 September 2026, there are 4,462 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Lauderdale-by-the-Sea. 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.
93% of Lauderdale-by-the-Sea 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 Lauderdale-by-the-Sea 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 Lauderdale-by-the-Sea 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 Lauderdale-by-the-Sea.
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-by-the-Sea 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.
