Their home is well set up to care for pups - ours loved to explore their fenced in yard. Communication was terrific, the pictures were great and reassuring to us as protective pet parents. Our boxer came home happy and seemed to enjoy his sleepover with his new friends. We're booking again right away.”

Xiaoyan took excellent care of my dog while we traveled out of the country. She sent me regular updates with pictures and went above and beyond to care for my pup. She was extremely helpful when I realized I forgot my dog’s food and even provided multiple replacements she had on hand. Highly recommend!

Arnav took such great care of our dog Andie for a week-long stay. He was a great communicator throughout the experience and kept us updated with photos every day. He and his family live in a beautiful home right along a walking trail, so it was great to know Andie got some excellent walks and was comfortable staying in a cozy home. Highly recommend and hope to have Andie stay over again in future trips.

We love to travel, so finding a sitter who truly loves having our dog was very important to us. Hope is exactly the person we were looking for! She loves our dog, Louie, and Louie adores her, too. Louie has a delicate digestive system (pancreatic issue) and needs medication with every meal. If he doesn't take his meds properly, he loses weight and gets sick very quickly. In the past, when we left Louie with other sitters, we would come back to find that he had lost weight and had stomach issues. This time with Hope, he was completely healthy and thriving! Also, usually when a dog gets stressed, they chug water as soon as their owners return. Louie didn't do that at all this time—he was super relaxed and actually seemed to miss Hope! We will definitely bring Louie to visit Hope again and look forward to booking her for our next trip. Thank you so much, Hope, we deeply appreciate your wonderful care for Louie!

Ms. King is a very trustworthy and caring sitter! She took care of our senior Boston Terrier for six days and sent us lots of photos every day. Our dog isn’t always super friendly with other dogs, so I was a little worried about how she would do, but her Golden Retrieve, Gabe, was very calm and gentle, and they did great together! We would definitely love to have Ms. King take care of her again!

Aysegul and her husband took amazing care of our cat, Momo. She had a wonderful time and actually relaxed, played, and ate - all things that are very unusual for her when we travel. Aysegul shared several updates and adorable photos of Momo throughout the day, which really put us at ease and made it so much easier knowing she was doing well. We highly recommend them!

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.

FAQs for Pet Boarding - Lexington

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Lexington is $61 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $34 and $81 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

There are 4,215 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Lexington. About 90% of Lexington sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.

If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
