“This was our first time using Rover. We are so pleased with everything. The Stamms are so nice and took great care of Charlie. They sent us updates and pictures during his stay. He was very happy and relaxed when we picked him up! Usually we get the cold shoulder and ignored when we bored him… but not this time! We will definitely be booking with the Stamms in the future. It’s so refreshing and reassuring knowing our pet is safe and taken care of when we are out of town.”
“Wow, I was so pleased with Abbie as a sitter for our two 10 month old Winston & Riley. My anxiety level dropped from the pictures she sent, we would look forward to her updates. I could see the content in our boys eyes & the bonus was how her children loved on them during their five day stay. This stay was the first time using Abbie & Rover and will not be the last. I have bragged on Abbie to my friends that I was so pleased, which made my time away so much more enjoyable with no worries. We will be back soon.”
“Jessica is great! My old dog is a bit needy and she was so sweet, meeting him where he’s at and not complaining about giving him extra attention. My kids and I all loved that she sent daily updates with photos. We will definitely check in with Jessica next time we need a sitter!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Alycia! She took great care of Otto during his 4 day overnight stay. Otto was very comfortable with her and we loved her daily updates!”
“Rebecca took great care of my dogs! Her home was beautiful and perfect for my two fur babies! I felt so at ease with Rebecca’s communication about the dogs. She sent lots of pictures of them having a great time and perfectly happy. I would recommend her to anyone seeking a great environment and experience for your dogs! Will book again!!!”
“Jenny was awesome! We are so happy she was able to help us out last minute. Piper absolutely loved the long walks and great care Jenny provided. We received updates and pictures throughout her stay. We highly recommend!! Thank you Jenny!”
“Leeann has cared for our girl, Cami, on two occasions, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! She provides excellent care, keeping us updated with frequent messages and adorable photos, which gives us such peace of mind while we’re away. Her communication is outstanding—always clear, timely, and professional. What truly sets Leeann apart is her dedication. When a snowstorm disrupted our travel plans, she didn’t hesitate to extend Cami’s stay for two extra days, ensuring she was safe and well cared for. That level of flexibility and kindness means the world to us. If you’re looking for a pet sitter who is thoughtful, attentive, and genuinely loves what she does, we wholeheartedly recommend Leeann. Your fur baby will be in the best hands!”
“This was our dog's second stay with Deana and Gerald. They again took wonderful care of Savannah. They go out of their way to make sure she feels comfortable and are willing to deal with her little quirks. It is obvious that they love dogs! We are grateful to have found Deana and Gerald and highly recommend them!”
“Karen is very kind and caring. She cared for our two little furry dogs for 13 days, and during that time, she always checked on them and let us know how everything was going. We recommend Karen 100% and are confident that she will take care of your pets with great love and dedication.”
“Very nice and responded back very quickly to my text messages! Sent pictures of my fur baby to let me know she was ok. We would definitely use Diane again! Thank you”
“Colleen was great! She bent over backwards to accommodate my schedule. Based on the many pics and videos she sent me while I was away my dog had the time of her life! I wouldn't hesitate to trust Colleen with my dog again!”
“Karen was amazing! She made us feel so comfortable leaving our puppy with her! Not to mention that our pup came back even better trained! I would definitely recommend Karen!”
“Cori responded to my messages quickly and sent me several updates and pictures during my weekend away. My dogs had fun playing with hers, and they were nice and tired when I picked them up :)”
“RYAN is our super thorough dog boarding expert. Mavericks and Goose had a long stay over the week before and during another holiday weekend. We appreciate it very much!”
“Stephanie was absolutely amazing and has a gorgeous home! She willingly accepted our two small dogs (27 pound terrier mix and 15 pound minpin) on sort of a last minute booking after 2 others canceled. She graciously let us introduce our dogs to herself and her husband. The dogs received so much love while we were gone for the long weekend that I wasn't sure they were going to want to come home! Stephanie asked lots of important questions and made me feel very safe leaving my dogs there. 10/10 would recommend and will be booking with her again.”
“Michael was amazing with our dogs!!! They were clearly well cared for while we were gone. He sent lots of pictures as well so we knew they were having a good time. They had fun with Michael’s dogs and got walks as well. We will be using Michael in the future!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 633 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Butler. 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.
96% of sitters in Butler 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 Butler 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 Butler.
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 Butler 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.
