“100% Recommend and I will be a repeat customer. If you need someone to watch your pet, you cannot go wrong with chosing Jamey C. Welcoming, friendly, and an excellent communicator, I felt incredibly confident that my dog would be taken excellent care of. She provided a walkthrough of the space, listened to my concerns, and answered all of my questions. I received daily updates and pictures of my beloved furry brat. What could have been an anxiety-inducing experience turned out to be a fantastic experience. Thank you, Jamey!”
“I can’t say enough good things about Josephine and how great she is! When I needed a last minute place for my dog Teddy to stay, she was quick to respond, took great care of him while I was gone, and made every step of the way so smooth, keeping me in the loop while I was out of state. Teddy enjoyed his stay with Josephine so much he was almost sad to be back home. And that says a lot because he’s by my side constantly. Josephine is hands down the best, and I highly recommend her. My dog is older, moving slower these days and needs lots of love. It’s safe to say he was in great hands with her.”
“Lynn watched our 7month old puppy for the weekend. She was well taken care of in a loving pet friendly home.I would highly recommend her to anyone. She also has it set up for very small dogs or older dogs. Jellybean had a weekend vacation just like we did.”
“I can’t even put into words how much we appreciated tails and scales. We were super anxious to leave our giant baby with someone, but Brian and his wife made us feel so comfortable and kept us up to date with pictures. I am so grateful for them, and to have some place so lovely for our big baby.”
“Her and David were so great while watching my two dogs for an entire week! They were kind, attentive, and met every needs of my dogs. The entire week I got plenty of cute update pictures. My dogs had a great time with them and I'd highly recommend them for any pet watching needs. My dogs will definitely be hanging out with them again!”
“Tara was awesome! I felt good knowing my pup would be in a home where he felt comfortable and would have people around, especially after the storms that came in. Tara was really communicative and worked with my schedule.”
“Words can’t describe how thankful I am for Regina and Ted! They took absolute GREAT care of Sabo, I was nervous at first because of his breed but they kept me in the loop and he did amazing! Definitely recommend and definitely will be sending Sabo back to hangout with his new buddies!”
“We left our two dogs (Chihuahua & French Bulldog), with April, her family and her own dog this past weekend, and we couldn't be happier. We did a meet and greet ahead of the stay, and our boys explored and got to meet everyone. April provided a wonderful, welcoming environment. She communicated well throughout the weekend and sent some snaps, putting our minds at ease. April noted she paid special attention when the weather was warmer outside not to let our frenchie play outside too long. (Which is always a plus knowing someone is giving breed-specific attention with a frenchie) It’s clear they were well-cared for and entertained the entire stay. It’s such a relief to know our boys were in such good hands and had so much fun. We will definitely be booking with April again!”
“Amber and her Husband took great care of my dog! I felt immediately comfortable with them from the first message and booked immediately. My dog has anxiety but they made him feel super comfortable and he warmed up to them and their home effortlessly! Thank you guys a ton, will definitely book again:)”
“Dixie is one very happy dog when she stays with Lawrene. She’s excited when I take her and I know Dixie is stress free, happy and having a wonderful time. I so appreciate the great care she receives with Lawrene.”
“I couldn’t ask for a better doggy sitter. Sophie has challenging mobility issues and Debbie took special care of all her needs. She kept me updated daily and I appreciate her so much.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Lexington on Rover is $41.07 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 227 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.
96% 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 OK 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.
