“Alexander communicated well, as well as when our dog got hurt because being afraid of fireworks he offered a full refund to pay for the dog care, showing more worry about the puppy rather than being worried about being paid. Very respectable and good with Juno.”
“Very professional and prepared for my two kittens! She sent lots of updates and pictures throughout the day as well as had toys and pet care needs already there. I 100% would book with Ally again!”
“Sarah was incredible. She kept me up to date with my kitty and was so responsive and helpful at every moment. I never do reviews like this but Sarah absolutely wow’d me with how excellent and involved she was. I implore anyone with an animal to give her some business!”
“Arden had such a great time with Ashley and her active family. She kept me updated regularly, helped reinforce some of the things we are working on at home (he’s a 5-month-old puppy), and made sure he got plenty of exercise and time to just be a puppy. She also exposed him to new experiences, which I really appreciated at this stage. I’m definitely a protective dog mom, and I felt completely comfortable having her care for him. I will absolutely be using Ashley again in the future.”
“Brandy did an amazing job with our 7 month cavapoo! During the 3 night stay, Brandy send updates, photos and videos of Nala! And as a bonus, Nala made a new friend, her dog Aqua! We will be boarding with Brandy on future travels!”
“She is amazing! Lots of detailed updates and pictures while we were away. He was very well taken care of and loved every minute of his stay! We will definitely be returning 😃”
“Hannah was great, super helpful, patient, friendly and easy to work with! She kept us updated and our pup was very happy and well taken care of. We’ll definitely use her services again. I highly recommend her!”

“Cheryl was so amazing with our dog Max. This was our first time using Rover. We were taking a last minute trip. Our son in the Navy came in from Japan and we wanted to take a quick trip to Norfolk VA to see our other son stationed their with the Navy. Our family hadn’t been together in over a year and a half . I reached out to Cheryl the day we needed boarding and she quickly agreed to help us. Our Max was so pampered and taken so well care of. I think when we got home he even missed being with Cheryl and her family. We will definitely use this app again and Cheryl will be our only choice !!! Thank you Cheryl for making our time with our sons perfect and giving us the best experience without worry!!!! You’re the best!!!!”
“Michell was super accommodating and very nice. She gave us plenty of updates and pictures. She was very professional and treated our little boy Benny with great loving care. She was always quick to respond to our questions. I highly recommend her for your pet care needs. We have already booked her again.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Lavaca on Rover is $31.08 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 36 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Lavaca. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter 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.
Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local 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 Lavaca 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 Lavaca.
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 Lavaca 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 AR 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.
