“It's so awesome to find someone like Lauranne to take care of our pup while on vacation. We never worried about him. We knew he was in capable hands. Our boy, Mr. Bobby loved hanging with her and all the attention she gave him. She sent us daily notes and pictures. We will definitely book with her again.”

“Johnathan was incredible at communicating! He also had a nice clean home with two very nice dogs. Remy was extremely happy when I picked him up! Will definitely be using him again!”
About: I have two dog's, both are super sweet and loving towards humans and other animals. My whole life are these dogs and any dogs I take care of. I always make sure any dog I take care of is loved and happy. Pet care is my main concern. I do not have kids so any pets in my care are my top priority.

If needed I am able to crate your pet whenever you are wanting. I do allow pet on furniture.
“Keylor and Grace were very accommodating when I was running late and when I picked Molly up earlier than expected. They were gracious and kind and took very good care of our Frenchie. She had such a good time with the bigger dogs; she was sad at home without them.”
“Flynn had the absolute best time with Stephanie and her dogs. I got pictures and updates daily and it made vacationing so much easier knowing he was well taken care of and loved! I will most definitely be using her again!”
“I would like to take a minute to think Angel Lynn for caring for our two dogs over the weekend on such a short notice. She responded to the request quickly, she is very friendly. Great communication, I appreciate that she kept us updated on how they were doing. This was the first time they have ever been boarded so I was a little worried but she definitely put my mind at ease. She took the time to clean their bowls before we pick them up. She is great!!”
About: I was raised around all kinds of animals. I respect the fact that they have their own boundaries and tolerance towards certain things. I love helping animals over come fears and building relationships with them. I own 2 dogs and 4 cats. Animal care is second nature to me. I enjoy all of their personalities and mannerisms. To me, life isn’t complete without a dog or cat by your side. My yard is not fenced in, but I have tie downs both in my front and backyard. I have 2 very friendly dogs to keep your fur baby entertained. If you have a cat, don’t worry we have a safe place set up in our home just for them.
“Ashley was very helpful in the process starting with the meet and great. She filled me in on her daily routine and schedule to reassure me that my pup would be well taken care of. She went as far as sending me pictures 4 to 6 times a day to met me know how my dog was doing and that made me so happy and stress free as I've never been away my from my dog more than a day. My dog came back just the same old happy self that I left her in and very clean and well taken care of and she even went out of her way to write me a card thanking me personally. I will definitely be using her in the future and for her rates and her attention to detail you would be silly not to use Ashley for your dog sitting needs.. thank you again Ashley for your help and understanding”
“I would recommend melody to anyone. I felt comfortable leaving my Scooby Doo while going off on a weekend family trip. He had a good time. I would use her again in the future as well.”
“Hannah and Daniel took great care of my dog while I was gone! I know she can be an anxious dog so it was great to see photos of them and their daughters loving on her like she was their own”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Lexington on Rover is $44.4 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 62 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Lexington. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter 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.
Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local 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 OH 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.
