“I can’t say enough amazing things about Likun—she is truly the BEST dog sitter we’ve ever had! From the moment Chewy arrived, he was showered with so much love, attention, and care. 🐾💛 She spent tons of time playing with him and made sure he was always happy and engaged. Her large backyard was an absolute dream—plenty of space for Chewy to run around, explore, and have the time of his life! It honestly felt like a mini vacation for him. What really stood out was the 1-on-1 attention she gave him. You can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she looks after, and Chewy absolutely adored her. I picked him up relaxed, happy, and clearly very well cared for. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and full of love for your pup, Likun is it. We will definitely be booking with her again—Chewy can’t wait to go back!”

Michiko and Cliff are really great, very responsive and you can tell immediately that they love dogs and have a lot of experience taking in four legged guests. From the meet and greet we felt comfortable having Bella stay with them and Bella seemed calm and happy to explore the house. During the stay, we received daily updates and pictures and of Bella enjoying the stay, making our time away from Bella relaxing knowing she is in good hands.
Aya was an amazing sitter. She communicated with me the whole time and I didnt have to ask for pictures because she already sent them! She was very responsive and understanding. I will be going back. Bluey loved her. Im very grateful she was able to watch her. Thank you Aya!
Yi took wonderful care of our dog. We got frequent updates and lots of photos on walks and eating. This was our first rover, so our dog got quite stressed being in a new environment but Yi did a really great job of taking care of him during that time. She was very thoughtful for our dog and stress mess he made. We really appreciate her for that.
For Rover: Dave and Jess were exceptionally kind, thoughtful and professional, while caring for our 17 year-old dog, they even sang happy birthday to him when he turned 17! They noticed that he was stressed in missing us, which then turned into a UTI, which they’ve experienced, but we have not, I know in 17 years! So they contacted us and brought him to a 24 er which they had been to before and arranged for us to talk to them on the phone while we were on the other side of the country traveling. It all worked out great. We then picked up our beloved dog, Ferris and brought him home and he was no longer stressed, but still on the meds that Dave and Jess had started giving him. We cannot say enough, good things about their care and would definitely use them again.
Anne was absolutely wonderful with Toto! She took amazing care of her and kept me updated with photos and videos throughout, which gave me so much peace of mind. She’s very caring and attentive and Toto was so happy and relaxed with her! I’d definitely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Lexington on Rover is $66.6 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 4,151 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Lexington. 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.
91% of Lexington 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 Lexington 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 Lexington 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 Lexington.
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 Lexington 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.
