“Elizabeth and Neil are absolutely wonderful! They treat my pup as their own and are the nicest and most accommodating people. I trust them fully with my pup!”
About: I have loved and cared for dogs for many years. I previously owned and cared for my own family dog for over five years, which taught me the responsibility, patience, and attention dogs need to feel comfortable and secure. I provide a safe, clean, family-oriented home where every dog receives individual attention, regular potty breaks, exercise, and companionship. My home has a large front yard and backyard that offer plenty of outdoor space for supervised play and fresh air. I understand that every dog has its own personality, routine, and needs, and I do my best to make each stay comfortable, safe, and stress-free. I welcome friendly, house-trained dogs and provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind while they are away. I currently have a flexible schedule throughout the week, especially during afternoons, evenings, and weekends. This allows me to dedicate quality time to pet care, including walks, playtime, feeding, and drop-in visits. I am reliable, responsive, and committed to following each pet's routine and individual needs. I’m happy to work with pet owners to provide care that fits their schedules and gives them peace of mind while they’re away. I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines. I carefully follow each owner's instructions regarding feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and house rules. Safety is my top priority, and I make sure every pet is supervised, comfortable, and cared for in a calm, clean, and positive environment. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident and have peace of mind while they're away.
“Cardinal had so much fun at his small-dog play date!! I appreciated that Betsy took time for a thoughtful meet and greet so that I was sure he would feel comfortable! I was very happy that he could enjoy time outside of his crate with other dogs in a warm and caring environment! Will definitely book again!!”
“Finn has been loving his days with Likun! Her dog loves to run and play as well, so it’s a great match! Finn gets outside time, walks, and naps during his stay and always comes home tired and happy. Thank you Likun!!”

“Ben and his family took great care of Zelda and were very accommodating of our busy schedule. She came home happy and well exercised from playing with their pups all day. We will definitely book with Ben again!”
“Arnav has been nothing short of wonderful, communicative, and helpful. I have a small chi/pug 10 year old he has watched twice now. Arnav has sent me multiple pictures and at least one video each day for doggy day care! Neighbors have told me they have seen him out walking my dog during the day, so I have multiple witnesses for Arnav’s care of my furball. ♥️ My dog always seems cozy, happy, and relaxed with Arnav and enjoys all the attention. ♥️♥️♥️”
“Jingjing and everyone in her family were so nice to Tori and took great care of her. On the second day I could see her already so comfortable in the house. I would strongly recommend this warm home!”
About: I have been caring for dogs since I was 10. They bring me so much joy. I have owned many dogs for over 30 years, all breeds. We have a large fenced in yard and we go on many walks throughout the day. I am home full-time. We have a golden retriever named Bear and chocolate lab named Moose who add energy, fun and lots of snuggles to our home. I owned a successful dog boarding business in our home for over ten years, with many repeat furry clients. I have cared for everything from Great Danes to Jack Russell Terriers and love them all. I am home full-time and am present with dogs and caring for their needs. Would love to meet your pup! I am flexible for drop off and pick ups. I have a large fenced in yard and the dogs can go out as often as they like. They are welcome on the furniture and i have many dog beds. The dogs are welcome to sleep anywhere they like in our home on a couch or dog bed, but they need to be able to sleep with their dog friends for company. We go on several long walks a day for those who enjoy getting out!
“Belinda took great care of our dog Ollie and sent regular updates and pictures. Ollie is an anxious dog and he seemed very comfortable there. We would definitely have him stay with her again!”
“Shuhua is kind and very professional. Hermes ( my little Yorkie) was very happy with her. She is trust worthy and is a great communicator. I am sure Hermes is missing her companion ship. I will recommend her without any hesitancy. Thank you Sue.”
“Janette and her family, including their dog Luna, are so wonderful to our dog, Lenny. She is so kind and communicative! Lenny loves spending time with them and going for walks in their beautiful neighborhood. Thank you so much for taking such great care of our dog!”
“We so appreciate Kayla! Our dog was a little shy and concerned about being left behind, but Kayla took care to introduce him one by one to the other dogs, and soon he made a bestie! We will definitely let him stay with Kayla next time we need a doggy daycare.”
“Elizabeth and her kids took amazing care of Bean! Elizabeth was incredibly accommodating in setting up a space for Bean in her home and truly went above and beyond. She also sent various updates and photos throughout Bean's stay with her. Would definitely recommend!”
“Vista had so much fun during daycare with Junho and Boki! Junho was very communicative of how Vista was doing, making sure she had everything she needed to enjoy her days, from her food, to play and outside time. It is clear that he truly loves dogs and I would recommend him to anyone looking for someone with a kind heart to care for their pet.”
About: Since coming to college, I’ve started volunteering at the Humane Society where I’ve been day-fostering! Love dog sitting/walking for friends and neighbors. Would be more than happy to take care of your pups :) I’m a college Senior with a light course load this semester and plenty of free time, especially on weekends. My schedule is normally pretty consistent with classes from 12-2pm. Outside of those hours I’m very flexible! I have no pets at my home and have the energy to entertain your pet (no matter how energetic they are). I’m a safety-first kind of person and big on communicating any areas of uncertainty!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lexington
Jingjing and family were all very kind and thoughtful. Remy had a couple of accidents during daycare (he’s recently started marking and sometimes goes a bit overboard) and these were met with absolute understanding and grace. He had a good time playing with another dog they were watching and seems to have enjoyed his day overall!

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Lexington on Rover is $59.94 per day (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Lexington commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 3,038 sitters in Lexington, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
