“Kelli and Jake took such wonderful care of Herschel! I was able to relax on my trip knowing he was in such great hands. Our flight got delayed 9 hours & they were so kind in being flexible and caring for him!”
“Jett found his new best friends in this home! We did a meet and greet and they are so warm and welcoming. Their dog Autumn is super friendly also. I had no nervousness about them or their home or pet. Jett felt the same, it was instant comfort. Great communication for a first time stay :) Judy also let me know general details about dogs coming for day care while Jett would be there just for my awareness. Everything went well and they were so kind and flexible when my return flights got delayed!”
“Milika was great with my pup. She sent daily pictures and even some videos. She spoiled my pup and you could tell in the videos that he really enjoyed spending time with her. I would recommend her services.”
“Layla loves to stay with Gail! She is always excited when I drop her off and Gail always shares photos of the fun she has while she is there! Gail has watched Layla multiple times now and we will continue booking with her!”
“We are over the moon with the great service Myles provided for our pooch, Scooter! I told Myles and I mean it, he has a client for life. Scooter had the best time and came home happy as a clam but also worn out in the best possible way. GOOD JOB !!!”
“Luke was super with my girl! He did a great job with communication and providing updates periodically. I could tell she was in good hands when I dropped her off with Luke and she came home a happy girl! Would definitely use him again!”
“Ashley and her family were absolutely amazing and we will definitely be booking with them again. Our furbabies had a great time and were taken good care of. They sent photos as well and reassured any concerns I had!”
“Willow and Woody always love staying with Margot. As their mom, I know I have nothing to worry about when they go hangout on the farm. Margot is definitely my sitter of choice! I would recommend her to anyone”
“Dillon is very attentive and thoughtful of your pets needs and personality. He responded quickly and sent plenty of updates and pictures to know how Hildy was doing throughout the weekend. He's got a nice big fenced yard for the dogs to play in and took Hildy for walks with his dogs as well.”
“I had an issue with another sitter I had set up through Rover for when I'd be out of town and they dropped my dogs back at home despite me not being there. I contacted Kimberly immediately and although she was also out of town, she took the time to go to my house and get my dogs as soon as she got back that night. She is an absolute angel and is great with my high energy boys. I cannot recommend her enough. I am so thankful for her!”
“So happy I found Matt! He was the first person to watch my dog other than family, and I couldn’t have been happier with his care and communication. My old boy had a fantastic time and he’ll definitely be back!”
“This was our first time leaving Prince with a sitter. She made me feel very comfortable with her warm and inviting spirit and her immediate and consistent communication. She provided updates and a picture of him while we were away. He was happy with her and I'm glad he had a home feeling experience. I will definitely use her again and refer her to my friends.”
“I have a problem pup that I didn’t initially know was going to be a problem. Paige did a wonderful job working with my skittish female shepherd, keep her safe and loved until I got back home! She even checked up on my chickens for me while I was gone! 10/10 would recommend.”
“Monica and her family did an amazing job watching our boy (kevin) while we were out of town. Monica send messages and photos regularly to keep us updated. Kevin had a great time and would love to stay with Monica and Fam again!”
“Jessie is our top choice for Harper’s care. I love how excited her and her husband get to see Harper and it’s evident that Harper loves being there as well. She provides excellent updates. Sadly we are moving and I am sad Harper won’t have her favorite sitter but it isn’t goodbye it’s a see you later (woof!). Highly recommend Jessie for all of your pups needs!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 487 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Lucama. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
98% of sitters in Lucama 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 Lucama home-away-from-home, 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 Lucama.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Lucama 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 , 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 .
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 NC 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.
