“Olivia did a fantastic job with our pugs. I am an anxious person and was feeling nervous about leaving my pugs for 10 days while out of the country. Olivia sent me multiple pictures and updates every day, morning and night. This helped me feel so secure in our choice of pet care. It seemed like our pugs truly had a great time and had lots of play and cuddle time. They also loved her puggies, Tuna and Oskar. When we dropped Tito off, his nose was looking dry and I asked Olivia if she could butter it while we were away. When we picked them up, Tito’s nose looked brand new! I would rebook Olivia for our next trip in a heartbeat! Thank you so much!”
“Had a bit of a panic when our original sitter cancelled 4 days before we were supposed to go out of state, but Luliia came to the rescue! Tucker spent 10 days living his best life, was SO well taken care of and got to play with so many friends, he already can’t wait to go back! Communication was flawless, and getting sent pictures of our boy and seeing him enjoy himself was amazing. 10/10, will absolutely book and recommend time and time again. Thank you so much again!❤️”
“I recommend Edwin and family to anyone! They take such amazing care of my dog, Layla, who is pretty anxious without me. They send photos and make sure she feels at home. I never worry while she stays here!”
“5 stars is not enough! Yan kept me updated at all times and my dogs were SO happy they didn’t want to get in the car to come home. They had so much fun and I had so much peace of mind, Yan is amazing!”
“Stephanie was absolutely amazing with our pups. She went above and beyond, even taking one of them to our vet (with our consent, of course!) when she noticed something wasn't quite right. She kept us updated, sent pics and videos and loved on our babies while we were on vacation.”
“Savannah & Gabriel took good care of Abby, my 3-month old puppy, for about 7 hours while I went to the UT football game. They are a sweet couple, their apartment is immaculate, & Abby seemed relaxed & happy when I picked her up. I was also happy that they only had one pet of their own, another little shih tzu like Abby. I appreciated the pictures of Abby they sent. I also liked that they had puppy supplies (play pen, pads, beds, etc). All in all it was a very good experience.”
“Thank you, Robyn & Desmond, for taking great care of our pups. We never worry about them while we have to be away. We appreciate you guys being a second home for them.”
“Mercedes was great! She kept me updated and sent pictures! She took very well care of my Jackson and we were happy to have booked her! Will definitely be booking her again!!”
“Patches is by far the best dog-sitter we’ve ever had. She obviously loves animals but she also took the time to reassure us by sending updates and pictures without us even asking. Drop-off and pick-up was a breeze. But, best of all, we could tell our pup was really happy, which made it so much easier to have to be away from him. Thank you, Patches! We’ll be using you again!”
“Danielle was great with our 9 month old lab puppy! She made me feel completely comfortable leaving him with her! He had so much fun playing with her other dog and going on walks with her!”
“Mariana was the best sitter for our girl Mia! She shared daily updates and really let Mia become part of her family while we were out of town. Mia is skittish and sometimes difficult when we leave her, but all of Mariana’s updates were positive and made us feel good knowing that we left Mia in good hands. Next time we need someone to care for Mia, we are definitely going to check with Mariana first! Thank you for taking such great care of our baby!”
“Paco has stayed with Gail a few times. He now recognizes where he is when we pull up to her house - his tail starts wagging and he is ready to go see her. We get daily updates and photos from Gail, and Paco literally looks like he is smiling in the photos. I am so glad we can leave him with Gail (and Gwen!) when we have to travel without him. I know Paco is in good hands!”
“Jade is so sweet! She had our 4 month old puppy for 4 nights and was very communicative and helpful throughout the whole process. My dog loved playing with her dog Hiccup and they did lots of fun activities together. Will be booking again!”
“Lauren was great. She was very responsive and accommodating to babysit our dog last minute. He seemed to enjoy his stay. We got lots of cute photos and updates. We would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!”
“Claire and her husband were so amazing - our puppy had the best time when we boarded him with them. They sent lots of photos and updates, and he had TONS of outdoor fun and playtime. Would 100% use them again and thoroughly recommend”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Lockhart is $45
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lockhart
I recently used Rover for dog boarding while my wife and I were out of town on vacation, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Our trip was planned last-minute, but thankfully we found Kimberly — truly a star sitter! She was incredibly responsive, which made everything so easy. We quickly arranged a meet-and-greet that instantly gave us confidence. Kimberly was flexible with our drop-off and pick-up times since our travel schedule wasn’t fully set, and we really appreciated that. Throughout our dog’s stay, she kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. Seeing our boy happy, relaxed, and having a great time allowed us to enjoy a completely stress-free vacation. Despite the heavy rain in the Austin area that week, she kept him clean and comfortable the entire time — impressive! When we picked him up, he was in great spirits and clearly had been well cared for and loved by her and her family. I’m so grateful to them for treating him like one of their own. Overall, we had a fantastic experience. It felt personal and caring — not at all like dropping him off at a kennel. We will absolutely book with Kimberly again and will be using Rover for future travels.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Lockhart on Rover is $42.8 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 2,963 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Lockhart. 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.
98% of Lockhart 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 Lockhart 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 Lockhart 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 Lockhart.
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 Lockhart 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 TX 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.
