“Caty and her family are great. They treated Sagan like one of their own and developed a good bond with him. This was our first time leaving him with a sitter so he experienced a bit of separation anxiety but Caty and her family were very patient and helped him through it. Thank you for taking good care of our buddy.”
“Salish was a fantastic sitter for our pup. When we ran into a travel delay, she kindly accommodated our request to extend his stay for another night. We felt so comfortable knowing he was in great hands. Thank you, Salish!”
“Jing, made this experience a very positive one. I hadn’t left my 2yr old Zuchon previous to this. I felt very reassured for the duration my fur baby was in her home. My pet enjoyed the doggy day camp, and will continue to use Jing whenever possible. Thanks Rover!”
“Stacey was so accommodating and fantastic watching our dog Monty!!! She sent cute pictures through out his trip, and he came back tired because he had so much fun playing!! 110 percent would recommend her. She’s amazing!”
“We just came back from a wonderful Christmas - New Year's trip, and Tux spent seven nights with Faith and her family. We cannot say enough about how Faith handled the whole stay, and we will DEFINITELY book Tux to stay with her again! Faith made herself available for a "meet and greet" with Tux about a week before we were leaving on our trip. She was very attentive to Tux, and we were impressed with her fenced in yard and welcoming home. We were flying out early on the day after Christmas, so Faith had no problem with our dropping off Tux around 7pm on Christmas night. She was also accommodating about the pick up time on New Year's Day. While we were away, Faith sent me several messages and pictures about Tux and how he was doing. Needless to say, I'm not sure who was having more fun: Tux with his new friends at Faith's home?!?! or us on our tropical vacation!?!? We will definitely book Faith again to take care of Tux. She was very professional, and Tux seemed very happy during his time with Faith and her family.”
“This was our first time boarding our new puppy (13 weeks old) and we were nervous but Mercis was so wonderful and met with us and our pup ahead of time so we felt very comfortable before we left our littlest family member for the long weekend. During the stay we can tell our pup had the BEST time, thanks to the great daily pics and communication from Mercis. We were almost worried she wouldn’t want to come home, she loved Mercis’ place so much. 😅 Puppies this young are A LOT of work and Mercis loved and cared for our little girl like she was her own all weekend and even worked on some of her training while we were away. We will definitely be contacting Mercis in the future when we need someone to board Bloo! 🥰”
“We left our almost 2 year old husky with Gabriel for the weekend and have no regrets. He was extremely prompt when contacted for booking. He was very welcoming when we stopped by for a visit prior to booking and our dog loved him right away. During our vacation he sent us videos and made sure Rocky’s needs were met. We will definitely book Gabriel again when needing boarding care.”
“My dog loves staying with Rebeca and her family! They were able to accommodate a last minute change to the drop off time. I can tell my dog is treated like part of the family and receives great care! We look forward to booking with her again”
“Melany was amazing! She kept me updated the whole time by sending videos and pictures of my Frenchie, and it was clear my dog was happy and well cared for. She also accommodated an extra day for me last minute, which I really appreciated. I’ll definitely be booking with her again next time I go away!”
“My pup was well taken care of at his week stay with Damaris. She followed all of my instructions and cared for my dog as if he were her own. I will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Lindsay was a great sitter for our dog Wellington. She provided pictures and updates regularly which made all the difference. We were traveling for 9 days out of the country and really appreciated her caring and thoughtful messages. It really was clear how much she cared for our dog and it was very much appreciated.”
“Felicia was absolutely incredible with Luna. She took her on so many great walks. Sent pics of Luna snuggled up on her couch. Luna came back so happy but wiped after the couple of busy and active days with Felicia. Luna is already looking forward to her next stay! Would highly recommend Felicia - she was so awesome, highly communicative and took amazing care of Luna🐾”
“Our minidoodle Sam had a great stay with Charlotte and Jordan, and their dog Kyber. Two things we especially like: They generally just take one dog at a time (more attention, and Sam loves attention!), and they live near some great walking trails. Very nice people.”
“Ruth was absolutely wonderful and very flexible! She and Roxy welcomed Pablo and made him comfortable and happy from the moment one. I was comfortable knowing that my senior pup is in loving and experienced hands. He had a great time socializing, walking and enjoying Ruth's backyard. Thank you so much!!”
“Abe had the best time! We got lots of photos of him running around their yard (which has an awesome setup for dogs!) Cherie was very accommodating to our tentative drop off and pickup windows, which was much appreciated. Would not hesitate to book with her again!”
About: I work as the Daycare and Kennel Supervisor at a Pet Resort in NH. I am comfortable with dogs of all ages and temperaments, and can take care of dogs with special needs including administering medications or even catheterization, if necessary. I am Canine CPR and First Aid Certified. I am also an NREMT certified EMT. I've had 4 dogs of my own at one time, and have both trained and groomed them since puppyhood! I currently work Monday through Wednesday, but am home all day Thursday through Sunday to care for your fur babies! With 2 dogs of my own, I make sure that I spend as much time at home with them as possible. I have a very large yard that is fenced in on 3 sides, with 100ft tethers to give them the freedom to run around and explore the whole property. I have 2 very playful pups that love having friends over! I can crate a dog, if needed, or have multiple raised beds and large dog pillows with blankets to keep everyone cozy. The pups' comfort, safety, and well-being always comes first!
“Vanessa was absolutely wonderful! She had amazing communication throughout the entire stay and took such great care of my dog. She gave him treats, made sure he got plenty of walks, and truly made him feel comfortable and loved. I’m pretty sure he thought he was on a little spa retreat! I would happily book with Vanessa again and highly recommend her.”

My Bernadoodle Duke stayed with Gabriel for 10 days and I would definitely recommend him to anyone. Gabriel sent timely updates and told me when Duke wasn't eating his food so we could determine what he could eat. He was a great caretaker for my dog, and I would use him again.
Joseph and his family were great sitters. They took care of our boy like he was their own. Their home and outdoor space is safe and spacious for dogs to get plenty of exercise. They were also very accommodating when we had a change in travel plans. I wouldn’t hesitate to book him again as a sitter.
We were a little nervous to leave Indy for a week, but our fears were immediately put to rest when we saw how wonderfully he was treated by Stacey and her family! Indy loved her fenced-in backyard and playing in the kiddie pool on the hot days! Indy and Stacey bonded quickly and we enjoyed the frequent updates, pictures, and videos. Most importantly, he was safe and happy and treated like family. Stacey is our new go-to pup sitter!
Ruth was absolutely wonderful and very flexible! She and Roxy welcomed Pablo and made him comfortable and happy from the moment one. I was comfortable knowing that my senior pup is in loving and experienced hands. He had a great time socializing, walking and enjoying Ruth's backyard. Thank you so much!!
Carina was very easy to work with. She even had many of the items in her home already, like toys and food/water bowls. My dog came back super happy after his time with her. And the next time we booked her, he was even more excited to be back. She is very sweet, attentive and caring!
We had a great experience with Amina! She sent regular photo updates and kept us informed about how our dog was doing and getting along with her dog, which gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were away. She has a wonderful backyard where the dogs could safely play off leash. She was also very accommodating and flexible when we needed to make some last-minute pickup changes. We really appreciated her care and communication, and we would absolutely trust her with our dog again!
Richie did an absolutely wonderful job taking care of my dog atlas. From the start, he was reliable, attentive, and clearly cared a lot about Atlas’s well-being. He kept me updated, followed all instructions, and made sure Atlas was happy, safe, and well cared for the entire time. It gave me real peace of mind knowing Atlas was in such good hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to trust Richie again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable and caring dog sitter.
Cassandra had our pup over the holidays and went out of her way to accommodate us and make him perfectly at home, even in the midst of the year’s busiest season. She sent wonderful notes and photos, and we couldn’t be happier with the care he received. Thank you so much, Cassandra!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Lawrence on Rover is $39.96 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 3,755 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Lawrence. 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 Lawrence 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 Lawrence 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 Lawrence 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 Lawrence.
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 Lawrence 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 MA 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.
