However, when we met Jennifer for the first time, she immediately started to explore Jennifer's living room, and she seemed very relaxed. When we went to pick her up, she didn't want to leave for a while. That says she had a great time in Jennifer's place. Thank you very much, Jennifer and her family!”

They got along great with Scooby and she truly made him part of the family. She sent photo updates daily so we always knew he was doing well. After seven days of boarding we picked up a very happy dog. We'd absolutely book with her again!”

“Cesar and his wife took wonderful care of our dog Mochi for 10 days. We received daily updates and sweet pictures of her playing well with their dog Jasper. Not once did I worry about Mochi, you could tell that she was being very well taken care of and nurtured the whole time. Cesar has a lovely home and a beautiful and spacious backyard for the pups to run around. I am so grateful to have found such wonderful care for Mochi. When I picked her up she was completely happy and freshly cleaned and was honestly sad in the car to leave his place! I trust Cesar and his wife wholeheartedly and am thankful for them!”

“I can't express enough how grateful I am for Sujan's care of my pup. He truly went above and beyond to make Kylo feel comfortable in his new surroundings. Sujan’s gentle and welcoming nature shone through as he took the time to take Kylo for a walk, helping him acclimate. Throughout the day, he maintained open communication, which really put my mind at ease. I was so touched when he went the extra mile and added Salmon Oil to Kylo's meal—what a thoughtful gesture! When it came time for pick-up, Sujan kindly took Kylo out for a final walk and even made sure he was brushed and clean before I arrived. The sweetest part was receiving a photo of his little son and Kylo looking out the window together, eagerly awaiting my return. It truly warmed my heart. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 I will absolutely use his services again and can't recommend him highly enough!”

Angela and her family took exceptional care of Joey, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. They were incredibly accommodating from the start, making everything seamless and stress free. Their lovely home is perfect for dogs, with a large yard where Joey could run around freely and burn off his energy. Angela and her family treated Joey like one of their own. They let him sleep on the bed, which is his favourite place, so he felt completely at home. He also had the best time playing with their two dogs, Rocco and Luca (such adorable boys) and it was great knowing he had constant companionship and stimulation. We received daily pupdates which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We’re so grateful to have found such a kind, reliable, and genuinely caring family to look after Joey. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Angela again. Thank you!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Lowes Island

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Lowes Island is $61 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $34 and $78 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 7,436 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Lowes Island. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.

94% of sitters in Lowes Island can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Lowes Island 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 Lowes Island.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lowes Island. On Rover:

  • 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

You and your Lowes Island 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 VA 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.

Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
