“We had a fantastic experience with Tammy!! Our furbaby Ruby was well loved and taken care of. From the moment I met Tammy I felt comfortable, her back yard was amazing for Ruby to have lots of room to play and run. It was a comfort knowing she would be able to play and run like she does at home! We will definitely utilize Tammy again!!”
“Elisheba and her family took Ember in and were very kind. Thank you for the hospitality and the great care at a last minute notice. Ember loved the yard and enjoyed having extra people to play with her, it takes a village!”
“Have been sending Copper to them for years. They’ve always taken amazing care of him and are incredibly accommodating to changes in our travel. They respond quickly and Copper seems sad to leave every time.”

“My pup had the best time with Kelti and Tanner! They were able to watch Ted last minute which was super helpful. They kept me update the whole time we were gone and my pup passed out the second we got home because he was so tired from playing all weekend! Would definitely ask them to watch my fur child again!”
“Jane was wonderful with Penny. Our dog was feeling separation anxiety and she was so kind and patient. She sent lots of pictures and I felt very good about leaving her with Jane. This is our second time using Jane and I’d definitely use her again. Thank you so much!!”
“I asked Rebecca to watch my dog for the day when our travel schedules became hectic and I couldn’t leave him at home alone for such long stretches of time. Rebecca was so accommodating and responsive, even with such a last minute request. My dog absolutely loved his day with her family, getting all the love and attention he could handle. We will definitely be booking again!”
“Chrissy is the BEST. When I leave my dog with Chrissy, I know she’ll be well taken care of, loved, and will get plenty of exercise. My dog loves staying with Chrissy and her family.”
“Susan took our pup in super last minute and was very accommodating! We don’t know what we would have done without her help! She was incredibly quick to respond and gave us updates throughout. We highly recommend her and will be using her services again!”
“I needed a place to board my dog for a night while my husband and I went to a wedding. Our dog has been to standard daycare facilities but isn't fond of being left alone so we didn't like the idea of her staying in a kennel. Alison was really accommodating and assured us that our sweet girl would get plenty of attention and play time with her own dogs, which is perfect because our girl loves to make friends. We were afraid that she'd have trouble settling in because she's very attached to us, but we were put at ease when Alison sent a picture of our girl sleeping on a comfy couch. They also made sure she had her allergy meds and food. This is exactly the environment and attention our dog needs to be comfortable being away from us for a bit. Thank you so much for watching her!”
“Omg! I don’t know where to start… Karen was amazing from the start of us booking her. Quick response and met with us ASAP. She always responded to my questions and wanted to really know about Mylo. My Mylo don’t do well with others besides a few. I had this feeling he would be great with her because of her first impressions and conversation. He will be back and we found a new sitter and family member for him. I highly recommend her. She is amazing!!!!! ?”
“Katie did such a great job watching Reggie while my husband and I were out of town for a few days! We received plenty of updates and could tell he was well taken care of when we picked him up. Will definitely be using Katie again!”
“I would recommend Stephanie and family! Stephanie provided day to day updates to keep me informed of Georgia's comfort level. While she has been timid around new people in the past, Georgia adapted well with this family. Thank you!”
“We love Amy! Our fur babies have the best time at her farm! From the large fenced play area to the long walks on her beautiful farm....nothing comes close to her loving care! Thank you for another great vacation!”
“Michelle was an excellent dog sitter. We knew Cookie was in safe hands while we enjoyed some Fall camping. When I got back into cell phone service on Sunday I was greeted with dozens of pictures of Cookie having fun and going for walks. He got a bath as well, and smells lovely. :-)”
“Our dog had a great time with Avery and her family over Christmas! We didn’t worry about a thing because we knew she was getting the best care. She also came back SMELLING like Christmas and Avery had gotten her some little treats as a gift. She will definitely be staying with Avery again in the future!”
“Paige, Stephen and family cared for our dog, Duncan, so well! He became part of their family while we were gone and I could tell that Duncan was thriving while with them. He especially loved playing with their kids which helped keep his sense of normalcy compared to our home! Would definitely recommend this family to anyone :)”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Alexandria
Our pups loved the big fenced-in backyard and playing with the other dogs! Miranda & Mary were great with our 2 dogs (one still a puppy) while we were on a week long vacation. We got photos and updates, and felt that they were happy, safe and content while we were away.
Jobe and his girlfriend were amazing with our 2 dogs! We went out of town for a week and were very nervous about boarding them, but it worked out so well. Jobe sent multiple photo/video updates each day, which I didn’t have to ask for and I absolutely loved getting! It gave me peace of mind that our pups were happy and being given the attention we hoped they would get. They were so worn out from how much fun they had when we picked them up. He even sent them home with a new toy, even though they broke one of his. I will definitely be asking Jobe to watch our babies again in the future! Thank you for loving our dogs like your own!

There are 777 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Alexandria. About 93% of Alexandria sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

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.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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 KY ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
