“Olivia did an amazing job watching our 2 year old mini golden doodle. She gave us frequent updates and ensured that our pup was happy and cared for throughout his entire stay! I highly recommend Olivia!”

“Allina was wonderful with our senior dog while we were away for the weekend! She sent great pictures and was always prompt with communication, which gave us peace of mind knowing our pup was in good hands. We really appreciated her care and attentiveness and would happily recommend her to others. 🐾❤️”
“We were so thankful to have found Tabitha. It was so nice to receive her pictures, and we felt secure in knowing that our Baby was with a family that was playing with her and holding her while we were gone.”
“Jr was awesome! We went on a trip overseas and left out dog Lira with him for 12 days. He communicated with us daily and treated our Lira like his own! His dog Zahlee was super friendly and welcoming to our dog as well! I highly recommend him and would define or leave my dog with him again! Thank you Jr!!”
“Lilia is the best dog sitter ever. She has a perfect home that’s set up to make your dog feel comfortable. She does everything right. My wife and I felt so confident and comfortable leaving our little lady with Lilia. Lilia will be our go to choice for any dog sitting in the future.”

“I needed someone to help watch my dog last minute right before a week long business trip and Nate was super helpful in accommodating my tight schedule. He responded practically within the hour to all of my communications and even offered to pick up Willow at my apartment. He sent regular updates even though I was out of the country and Willow appeared just as happy and clean as when I left her upon my return. Would definitely recommend!”

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.
