“Jasmine has been a blessing to me and my fur baby. I feel like she was heaven sent. Reign just 2 months old and we have never been apart but Jasmine made my uncomfortable go into ease within a few hours of having my baby. She sent so many updates, pics and videos. Jasmine and her kids are amazing. Children are very well manner and respectful. Nobody else will ever be able to keep Raign but Jasmine. She is now family. If I could rate her a 10 ⭐ I would.”
“Erica was great with our new rescue! She was patient, caring, and made us feel comfortable leaving our Canela in her care. We could tell our dog felt safe and well taken care of. We really appreciated the updates and attention she gave.”
“My fur babies are treated like royalty here! I think they would rather stay than come home with us! They are loved on and treated like part of the family. I highly recommend them if you need a sitter!”
“This was my first time using Rover and I must say that Lutisa was phenomenal with my little Coco. She sent pictures and video and reassured me that my sweet and spicy little Coco would be just fine. I will book again with Lutisa if she will have my little Coco.”

“Arlene was amazing! Our dog, Tucker, is 10 years old and is very much a people person dog and since she has an older dog as well, I thought the two dogs would get along very well. Arlene and her husband worked together and made Tucker's stay with them a vacation too. I received videos, pictures, and frequent text communication all showing Tucker having a great time! Seeing all the pics and videos made for a wonderful vacation in our end Nevada we weren't worried about if Tucker was OK and being treated well. I highly recommend Arlene and her husband for your pet's stay. Thank you Arlene and John!”
“Christopher spent a lot of time giving my dog, Lucy, personal attention. She is a 14 year old who is very fussy when taking her food and many meds. He kept in contact with us and she looked very happy once he spoiled her. I would highly recommend Christopher.”

“We’ve had Angela take care of our dog Vinny for the second time now, and once again she did an amazing job. It’s such a relief knowing Vinny is in good hands when we’re away. Angela is reliable, caring, and clearly loves what she does—Vinny was happy, comfortable, and well taken care of the entire time. Communication was great, and she kept us updated, which we really appreciated. We wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter!”

About: Experienced with energetic and strong willed dogs. Experienced with structured care, consistent routines, and happy dogs :) Will love your pup like they’re my own Caring for pets is already a big part of my everyday life. My routine revolves around making sure my dog is walked, fed, and given plenty of attention throughout the day. Feel free to message me about availability! I typically am available whenever you need!! I have a very friendly and energetic Husky in my home who loves staying active. We go on walks around the neighborhood about every 2 hours for potty breaks, as well as mental and physical stimulation. We also occasionally enjoy car rides to the dog park for extra fun and exercise. Since my yard is unfenced, I have a secure outdoor lead available. If your dog enjoys spending time outside like mine, I’d be happy to accommodate that upon request. For safety and comfort, I also have a crate available and can crate your dog or mine as needed.
“Ellie and Karson took great care of our dog, Moose, while my wife and I were gone for our wedding. We have an anxious dog, and I could tell he was super comfortable in their home. We will definitely be coming back to them for any upcoming vacations!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lexington
Having owned dogs all my life, yet never having to board one, I wasn’t sure where to look and was certainly anxious about leaving my little buddy. Savanna did a great job making Koda feel welcome and comfortable in his new home for the week. I got regular updates on how Koda was doing and quick answers to any questions I had. Koda had his first birthday while in her care and she made sure he knew it was his special day. Couldn’t be happier with his stay! Thanks for everything Savanna!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Lexington
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Lexington on Rover is $38.85 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 494 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.
97% 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 NC 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.
