“Basil had a good visit with Faith! I appreciated the text and photo updates, and he seemed to enjoy hanging out with her and her family. I could tell right away that Faith really cares for her 'pet guests'.”
“Simon loves to stay over at Damaris house. She takes great care of Simon and keeps me posted throughout the stay by sending me pictures and videos of Simon. I highly recommend Damaris.”
“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!”
“Rebeca is a great dog sitter! She and her family took awesome care of our dog, Louie, and he came back happy and exercised. They went on lots of walks and we were updated with daily pictures! I would definitely trust her to take care of Louie again, and I highly recommend her and her family.”
“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!”
“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!!”
“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.”
“Rita did a great job of figuring out how Olaf would fit in with her dogs and what motivates him. He had a great stay and we'll definitely use Rita again if she's available.”
“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.”
“Jessica was wonderful with my dog, Luna. She kept us updated the whole time and was responsive to Luna’s unique needs. We will definitely use Jessica again in the future, we highly recommend her!”
“Michael and his family were great!! Our Golden Jaxson came home super happy!! He sent multiple update pics and was very responsive!! Felt so at ease Knowing Michael was caring for Jaxson! 🐾”
“We are so grateful to have found Julia in our hometown! She was a fantastic sitter for our Samoyed and treated him like one of her own kiddos. She was a great communicator and provided multiple pictures and updates each day which we greatly appreciated! Highly recommend!”
“Dorothea has watched our dog multiple times in her home. He always returns home happy and tired! She sends daily updates and photos. I would highly recommend her and will continue to have our dog stay with her in the future.”
“We felt really comfortable leaving our skittish boy, Dingo, with Mike and Linda once we met them and saw that he was going to be doted on! We got almost daily pics and didn’t worry about a thing while we were on vacation. Dingo was reportedly loved by their grandchildren too over their Easter Sunday dinner so we weren’t too sure he’d even want to come back home with us but he did!! Highly recommend Mike & Linda! 🩷”
“Zoey was so happy at Peter’s house and I was able to enjoy my time in Florida knowing she was well taken care of. Peter sends regular updates for you to see. They are the best dog sitters ever. So glad I found them.”

Vanessa is wonderful! She watched our dog for over a week and sent us pictures and videos every day of his stay! She gave him toys to play with, frequent walks, bones to chew and her own dog to play with! And, when our flight home was delayed by 6 hours, she was super gracious and kept him an extra night without any issues. She’s very friendly, kind and a true dog person. I highly recommend her!!
Joseph took excellent care of our pupWrigley. It is clear he loves dogs and cares deeply about making sure they are happy and feel at home. Joseph’s communication was excellent, and he was so friendly and flexible, even when our timing had to shift. I am so grateful and will definitely have Wrigley at Joseph’s again!
Stacey was amazing with Cosmo! She gave him so much love and attention, took him on walks, and really made him feel at home—even letting him relax on her sofa and bed. She sent us lots of great updates and photos, and she paid attention to every little detail. If she thought there was anything she could do to make Cosmo more comfortable or happy, she always checked with us. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such caring hands. We would definitely have Stacey watch Cosmo again!
Jessica was so wonderful with our senior pup! She kept us updated with all the photos and videos. I felt so comfortable leaving our dog with her even after meeting her for just a few minutes at drop off. When we had to cut our family vacation short due to an emergency, she was so understanding and had our dog ready to go with just 30 min notice. My dog was very happy and clearly well cared for when we picked her up! Will definitely be using her again
Faith was absolutely wonderful! She recently cared for my two dogs, Roxi and Paisley, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the very beginning, she was incredibly easy to communicate with, responsive, and made the entire process stress-free. It was clear she genuinely cared about my dogs, and I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in such good hands. Faith was reliable, kind, and a delight to work with. I came home to two happy, well-cared-for pups, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. I highly recommend Faith to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and dependable to watch their pets!
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.
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!
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 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 3,729 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.
