“William at his dog Piper were great host for my two dogs. Very nice place for the dogs to stay in a nice big safe backyard for the dogs to play in. Highly recommend.”
“Brooke went over and above to take care of Bella and make her stay enjoyable! She is an excellent communicator and I enjoyed the photos she sent throughout Bella’s stay. We will use Brooke again!”
“Tyler helped us out at the last minute and was awesome to work with! He was flexible, great at communication, and kept us updated with photos the whole time. June enjoyed her stay with him!”
“We have nothing but great things to say about Kaitlyn! She was very easy to communicate with and took many adorable pictures of our pups during their stay. We got daily updates on their progress which was so comforting our first time away from them for more than a day or two. Definitely recommend!!”
“This was my first long trip away from my dog, Beetle, and Linda made it easy to be away without worry. She was responsive and communicative from start to finish, and sent excellent photos and updates throughout the days. She allowed us to meet up before the trip so that Beetle could be familiar with Linda and with the surroundings, which definitely helped put myself and Beetle at ease. Beetle came back relaxed and happy after his almost-week "vacation camp" at Linda's.”
“She did a great job with our Pit Bull/Husky mix Skye! Skye is only 3 months old and is a very curious, active puppy who gets into everything. 😂 I was nervous about leaving her but I really appreciated Whitney for being willing to keep Skye in her home and take on all that puppy energy. Skye was well taken care of, and I would definitely use her again! ❤️🐾”
About: I have over 30 years of pet care experience, taking care of puppies and kittens through senior dogs and cats. I don’t have children and consider my pets my children! You will have no worries while you are away from them. I have been there and understand what it’s like to be away from my pets and worrying that the people that I asked to look after my pets won’t get there on time to let them out or will forget and not feed them or give them water or scoop their litter box. If you hire me you will not have that problem. You can relax on your vacation or on your business trip knowing that your fur babies are taken care of. I currently work as a merchandiser and have a flexible schedule and can arrange my schedule to include pet visits at any time of the day. I do not currently have a fenced in yard but plan on getting one so if you want me to keep them in my home, I will leash them and walk them.
“Sydnie and her family were the best dog sitters! Kona was well taken care of and loved hanging with them and their Golden! Sydnie sent updates (from Kona 😊) everyday to describe his day. So cute! Highly recommended!”
About: I grew up with animals and wanted to be a vet or caregiver. I have done Therapy Dog programs with Hospice and inbound elderly to bring the love of animals to brighten their day. I have adopted several adult rescue dogs, including Whippet and Greyhound breeds. As a child, I always had cats, including DSH and later Siamese breed. I support Adoption rescue and spay/neuter. I grew up on a small farm with cows, rabbits, and many visitors! I work remote from home weekdays and have a flexible schedule with more open availability on weekends. Conveniently located near Basil Griffin Park and Three Springs Roads. I have a 8 foot fenced yard, and have 2 fur babies (Shih-Tzu) that are very friendly. I live in a small residential community with various cul-de-sac streets safe for walking. I enjoy exercise and walking so incorporating dogs into that routine is fun and relaxing!
About: What sets me apart is my hands on animal care experience and the amount of love I put into every pet I care for! 🐾 I have experience working in animal welfare and veterinary care, fostering animals, bottle-feeding babies, administering medications, and caring for pets with different personalities and needs. From energetic puppies who need patience and consistency to senior pets who need a little extra TLC, I’m comfortable adjusting my care to what each animal needs. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I never take that responsibility lightly. I focus on keeping their routines consistent, making them feel safe and comfortable, and keeping you updated while you’re away. As a pet parent myself, I understand that your pets aren’t just animals, they’re family! ❤️ Animals are already a huge part of my everyday life! Between caring for my own pets, my experience in animal welfare, and pet sitting, taking care of animals is something that comes naturally to me. I plan my schedule around my responsibilities to make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, love, exercise, and care. I’m big on keeping pets on their normal routines as much as possible so they feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. 🐾❤️ I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs and their owner’s instructions. In a client’s home, I do my best to keep their pets on their normal routines, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medications, and plenty of affection. I also make sure they have a clean, comfortable environment and send updates and pictures so you can feel at ease while you’re away! When caring for pets in my own home, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and supervision while making sure introductions and interactions are handled appropriately. I have experience with dogs of different sizes and personalities, cats, puppies, senior pets, and animals who need a little extra patience or medical care. My goal is always to make your pets feel loved, safe, and right at home! 🐾❤️
About: Raised in a small-town, country setting, I've been surrounded by animals my whole life. My past-times were spent caring for our farm cats, rabbits, chickens and ducks. In our home, I cared for an array of small animals such as reptiles, fish, hamsters, and of course the family dog and cat. I was a Dog Mom to an adopted Chihuahua for 10 years. I'm familiar with classic quirky Chi attitudes as well as separation anxiety. 🌈 I'm currently a dog Mom to a 4-year-old, 11lb, Chi-Terrier-Pekingese mix, named Sam. He's a friendly, playful, and goofy pup who loves being social with other k9's. (Doggie playdate anyone)? I fully understand that our fur-babies are a part of the family, and their care is important and specific. I'd love the opportunity to care for your fur-babies as directed whether it be a drop-in potty break, a walkie, or companion visit. I'm also comfortable welcoming your loved one into my home for daycare or overnight care on weekends if they enjoy human and k9 companionship. It's their world, we're just living in it. I am available for drop-in visits and walks nearly every day. I'm available most weekends to offer daycare and overnight care in my home. I am a career nanny and care for children in their home part-time on weekdays. I enjoy fitting pet care in around my childcare hours. I am dependable, trustworthy and caring. I will follow your instructions as outlined and care for your fur babies like I do my own. I'm comfortable administrating medications or supplements I'm familiar with. I live in a one level ranch home. My husband and I will be installing a fence in our backyard soon! Your fur-baby will free roam in my home, is allowed on furniture and will be spoiled with treats and snuggles if allowed. Our dog, Sam, enjoys playing and interacting with other dogs.
“This was my first time using Rover and I was very nervous, my girl is my whole world. Brynn was just absolutely amazing! We did a meet and greet first which was great, and then Kimura really had the best time during her stay! I can’t say enough good things. I got regular updates, and I truly felt my girl was being really cared for. I’m so grateful she had such a smooth and great time. :) definitely recommend!!”
About: Loving and caring for pets has been a part of my entire life. At a young age I started caring for my neighbor's pets while they were gone, helping lost dogs find their way back home, and training my own dogs. I started volunteering at my local shelter with basic care and also taking dogs off site for some fun outside of the shelter setting- walking, rollerblading for more active dogs, or just hanging out in the yard and working on training commands. I do it all for the love of pets! I currently make my own schedule with the school district working with special needs students, so I have a pretty flexible schedule aside from school drop off and pick up for my children. I'm also available weekends and evenings. Going for the day to Mammoth National Park? Don’t want to leave your pet alone in a rental or hotel? Perfect! I’m on right on your way! Let me keep your pet company and safe while you enjoy all things Mammoth! I have a fenced (4.5’), grassy yard with elevated and covered porch. I do have my own pets so their safety and your pup's safety is of the most importance to me. My pups do not have free range of my home. With a spare room and tall gates I am able to keep separation if desired. I am also able to crate your pup if requested.
About: I’ve owned and taken care of dogs for 50 years. I’ve taken care of up to seven dogs at once. I’ve had big and small dogs. All my dogs are adopted and some have had special needs. I’m retired, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups. I’m currently available to watch or board all week. I love taking dogs for walks. I have a fenced yard. Currently I don’t have any dogs but occasionally I watch my daughters dog. Even though I don’t have dogs I make sure all gates are closed and secured.
“Colten was able to watch my dog super last minute due to a work trip and I was so grateful! He took such great care of my pup and sent pics each day. I’ll definitely be booking with Colten again!”
“This was our first experience with having Malarkey boarded while away out of state and Jessice surely made this easier for us. She sent photos throughout and shared how she was doing which was very nice. I would recommend Jessica to anyone looking for a safe caring person to take care of your pets.”
About: I have always had pets in the household and have been responsible for my own. I have pet sit for others, love all animals, and will make sure your pets safety is my top priority. I'm currently a student but only have classes three days a week during part of the day. My schedule is very open and allows for a lot of time to look after pets! I live in an apartment and make sure all my pets stay indoors and would do the same while pet sitting. If I were to have a dog I would take them out frequently and give them the outside time they need!
“Kaitlin is a wonderful fur baby carer. She stepped & helped us in a last minute need we had. She had us over for a meet & greet so our pup could get used to her new surroundings. Our little girl ran back in the next day & was very relaxed there. Kaitlin sent photos & updates to make us at ease. She even had roommates who loved on her. I’d highly recommend Kaitlin.”
About: Hi everyone, I’m Madeline! I am a WKU graduate, and am currently in grad school. I have had dogs, large and small, throughout my entire life. When you book with me, I guarantee your pet will be in great hands :) As I am currently in school, I’m completely free on the weekends, and every day after 4pm during the week days. I would be more than happy to help out during these times! I would love to give your pets plenty of attention and take them on walks as frequently as needed. I am very punctual and will make sure the job gets done.

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.

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.
97% of sitters in Alonzo 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 Alonzo 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 Alonzo.
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 Alonzo. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 97% 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 Alonzo 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 KY 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.
