“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!”
“Matthew and his family always treat Oakley like one of their own. Leaving him with Matthew gives me peace of mind that I know he will be taken care of and I don’t have to worry. Always excellent!”
“Katie was a perfect sitter for Nash! She gave him the attention and love he wanted, a great house to feel comfortable in and he almost didn’t want to leave!”
“Cathy was amazing. Helped me out in a pinch and accepted my last minute request when I was struggling to find a sitter. Great communication and lots of pics. Wouldn't hesitate to book again. Thanks again, Cathy!”
“Sally was incredible with Frank! It was my first time using Rover and I'm glad I did. She was super communicative and even met up with me beforehand so I could have Frank meet her. He came back a happy boy! Definitely would have her watch him again.”
About: My family had a dog and two cats when I was growing up, and I have made sure to keep pets in my household ever since. Now, my wife and I have a 10-year-old beagle named Bobby, and a five-year-old cat named Walter. Bobby and Walter are easy-going and do well around other pets. Bobby mostly keeps to himself, while Walter might try to get your pet to play with him. We live at the end of a cul-de-sac in a quiet neighborhood, and we have a partially fenced yard for your dog to play/relax in. Bobby loves lounging on our patio. I work from home full-time, and my wife works from home one-two days a week, so your pet will have constantly attention and love from us. I work from home, so I am available to board and look after your pet every day. I only board one pet at a time, so you can count on your pet getting full and constant attention. I have a partially fenced yard at the end of a cul-de-sac in a quiet neighborhood, with plenty of yard for your pet to play and relax.
“Ike spent another great weekend with his aunt Lisa. As always she sent updates throughout his stay. I could tell he was having a great time in the pictures Lisa sent me. We will be booking with Lisa again soon.”
“Misty did a wonderful job. This was the first time we left Daxter with a stranger and Misty shared photos to let us know how he was doing so we would not worry. We would use her again.”
“Maddie was so great! I needed someone last minute and she was quick to respond and so nice. This was my first time using Rover and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I got regular pictures and updates, and though I was worried my dog would be anxious it was clear she was having a great time. I’ll definitely be booking with Maddie again!”
About: With 5 years of regular pet sitting experience, I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages - from bouncy puppies and playful kittens to my true area of expertise: senior pets. I understand the unique needs that come with each life stage, from puppy energy and socialization to the extra patience, gentle handling, and attentiveness that senior pets often require (think mobility issues, medication schedules, and just plain more TLC). Every pet in my care gets individualized attention tailored to their age, temperament, and routine. Whether it’s a high-energy young dog needing exercise and mental stimulation, or an older cat who just wants a quiet lap and consistent care, I adjust my approach to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I work from home so my schedule allows flexibility for lots of walks and potty breaks. My personal daily routine included exercise and regular walks, I’d love to include your pet! My home is one level and my yard is fenced in allowing for convenience to get outside easily and stay safe. Pets are welcome to roam free in my home, but happy to work with any crates or other training needs to stay on track.
“Hailey was wonderful! Benji loved the time he spent being able to play and enjoy a new setting. Hailey sent me pictures of Benji & also responded and kept me updated on how Benji was doing. If you are looking fir someone trustworthy to take care of you dog, I highly recommend Hailey (she is very professional).”
“Our puppy Onyx had the best time with Meghan and her sweet family! Onyx lived having a fellow Chihuahua to play with throughout his stay. Meghan provided updates daily and sent photos which was so appreciated. Meghan also made sure Onyx took his medication twice a day. We are so grateful for all the love and snuggles that Meghan and her family gave to Onyx. Thank you!!”
“This is the 3rd time Deanna and her husband Gerald have watched our dog while we went out of town. As always, they took great care of Savannah and were very accommodating with her special needs due to a leg injury. It is obvious that they love dogs. We can't recommend them enough!”
“Excellent stay with Jennifer and Robert! Very friendly, easy to communicate with, and felt comfortable leaving Willow with them. I will definitely be using them again.”
“Leann did an amazing job! Our 1 year old Great Dane had such a fun time and didn’t want to leave. Leann was very watchful over our big boy and we we felt he was safe in her hands the whole time. We will definitely be using Leann again. I would definitely recommend her.”
“Highly recommend Alycia (and Scott) as a dog sitter! She took great care of our dog Walter for a week and sent daily pics/videos. Reliable and caring. Will definitely book her again! Thank you, Alycia & Scott!”
“Chrissy was amazing!! She and her family took such great care of our dogs. She sent photos and made sure they got plenty of play time and was great with communication and very flexible. We will absolutely use her again for dog sitting and highly recommend her for anyone looking for a dog sitter.”
“Angel watched our Great Dane when our sitter fell through on short notice. Her and her kids did a great job with him and we appreciated her sending us regular picture updates. We would definitely book with her again.”

Susie was wonderful! She took great care of Maggie, made sure she got plenty of walks, and kept us updated throughout her stay with lots of pictures. It was so nice knowing Maggie was happy and well cared for while we were away. Susie was also incredibly friendly, responsive, and loved our dog. We would absolutely recommend her and would happily have her watch Maggie again!
Our dog, Buddy, stayed with Jenny for 9 nights and was very well taken care of. He got regular walks and belly rubs. Jenny also kept us updated daily with pictures and details about their day. We could tell Buddy was happy when we picked him up. He was very calm and relaxed. We were extremely happy with her care and will definitely reach out to her again for care.
Cathy was awesome with Poppy! It was our first time leaving her for over a week and Cathy made us feel so comfortable. She would send updates and pictures every day and spoiled her with lots of playtime and snuggles. We will definitely use Cathy again in the future!

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Covington on Rover is $37.45 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 797 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Covington. About 93% of Covington 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.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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.
