“What can I say about Victoria? She was absolutely amazing with my two anxious boys. My boys have allergies, anxiety and one has GI issues. Victoria followed my instructions to the letter and gave them their necessary medicine every day. I have never left them that long (was gone about 9-10 days) but Victoria sent video, photo and verbal updates every day all throughout the day which I really appreciated. Her husband is great as well, and I felt good actually being on vacation and enjoying it because I knew my pups were well taken care of. She was patient, caring and kind, and she took really good care of my babies. She even washed my pups’ bowls and spoons. I will definitely be utilizing Victoria’s services again.”
“Woody had a wonderful experience with Courtney. He was well taken care of, and I have already booked Woody’s next stay. I highly recommend her for caring for your pets.”
“Holly is AMAZING! We went on a ski trip for Christmas and she watched Luca (our beagle) for 6 days. She sent updates and pictures and Luca had a ton of fun. When we arrived to pick him up I don’t think he wanted to leave. If you need someone to watch your dog I Highly Recommend Holly and I definitely will be booking her next time we go on a trip and can’t bring the furry family with us.”
“Extremely friendly, pet owner, lover of animals! Our dogs had so much fun playing at her house, they almost didn’t want to leave! Jennifer kept us in the loop with pictures and videos and made the stay away from home a breeze 🐕 🙂”
“Abogail and her family were wonderful with Mushu while I was on vacation! They welcomed him like one of their own, which gave me so much peace of mind. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”
“Sweetest couple to keep our fur baby for the night. Teresa sends great pictures and keeps you updated about how your pet is doing. So glad I found them to watch our Jaxx!”
About: I'm a caring, dependable dog lover who enjoys giving pups plenty of love, attention, playtime, and cuddles!

I'll treat your pup like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and are well cared for while you're away! I'm currently seeking work from home and have ample time to tend to your pet. My weekly outings include grocery store runs and dog walks. I keep a tidy home, have a fenced in yard, designated area for feeding (and treats 😁), and plenty of space for play time and activities.
“Darcy took such great care of our 110 pound St Bernard mix. She sent pictures and updates frequently, she offered to bathe him, and he was happy when we came to pick him up. I accidentally mixed up which date we would return and she was flexible and able to keep him an extra night. I absolutely recommend Darcy and would rebook with her.”

While you enjoy your time away your baby will be able to enjoy cuddling on the couch watching tv or running outside in my fenced yard with my 2 goofballs.

About: Hi! I’m a loving and dependable dog person with plenty of hands-on experience caring for pups with all kinds of personalities and needs. 🐶❤️ I have experience caring for dogs with allergies and special care needs, giving dog baths, and keeping up with hyperactive, high-energy dogs who need lots of attention, playtime, and patience. I’ve also spent plenty of time around Labradors, so I understand just how energetic, loving, and sometimes mischievous they can be! I’m also a proud dog owner myself and currently have two dogs of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your fur babies. I treat every dog like they’re part of my own family and will make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. 🐾 Your pets’ comfort and safety are always my top priority. 💕🐕 I work Monday–Friday from 8 AM–5 PM, but my fiancé is home at times throughout the day and can let the dogs out when needed. We also have two dogs of our own, so we understand how important it is to make sure your pup is comfortable, cared for, and never left without attention for too long. We’ll treat your dog like one of our own and make sure they get the care, love, and potty breaks they need while you’re away! ❤️🐶 We love on the back of family property so there is ample amount of space to run around and play. However we do also have a fenced in yard for the one who like to explore!

About: I've been a dog and cat mother for most of my life. I've cared for other animals for sometimes weeks at a time with no injuries! You can trust me with your most loved family members and with your home if needed. I can be available as needed by your pet. I am not currently working. I am happy to drive up to 60 miles each way. I would appreciate an additional gas allowance. If I keep your animal in my home, you should know that I have a Rottweiler. She is very friendly and loves other animals, but she's never been exposed to an aggressive animal. I have a cat who does not like other animals, but I will have no problems keeping her separate from your animal. I have a fenced in backyard and I enjoy walking over 10,000 steps a day so your animal has options for exercise with me.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Covington
Kristen was amazing! She sent pictures and updates twice a day, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She made sure Murphy got plenty of exercise with long walks every day and, most importantly, made him feel loved and cared for. She handled an unexpected issue with grace, professionalism, and understanding, and I truly felt like Murphy was in the best possible hands. It is obvious that she genuinely cares about the pets she watches. We would absolutely book with Kristen again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!
Excellent, attentive host who took good care of our sweet pup while we were away for 3 weeks. She sent photos to keep us updated and assured us that our dog was faring well in her home. Maxy seemed calm and at ease when we brought her back home. Would absolutely entrust Madeilne to care for our pup again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Covington is $33 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $52 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

As of October 2026, there are 503 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Covington. 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 Covington 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 Covington 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 Covington.
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 Covington 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 LA 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.
