“Easy to get along. Great communication. Stella took right to them. Michael and Elizabeth treated her like one of their own pets. Thanks for making my first Rover experience one to be modeled after.”
About: Growing up with dogs of all sizes taught me how to adapt to their unique needs, training styles, and energy levels. I currently care for two energetic, 45-pound dogs, which requires daily structured exercise, interactive mental stimulation, and consistent behavioral management. We all savor ending the night with cuddles and love. I currently work weekdays and get off around 2:30pm so I would be available after then and on some weekends. Due to my job, i'm often available when there are seasonal/holiday breaks. I also live on the base at fort knox! I have 2 dogs that are very shy around newcomers, but love to play when they are warmed up. Since I understand that going into someone's home it's scary for the new comer. I will be extra careful and make sure that they feel comfortable and safe. I do have a fenced yard. I am always around the dogs, so there are almost no times when they are left alone.
“Anthony and his partner did such a great job caring for Mushu while we were out of the country for a week! He made sure to give updates and send photos daily. Your dog will be well taken care of and have a great time with Anthony while you’re out. Highly recommend!”
“Ebony was great! This was my first time using Rover and she made this experience way less anxiety provoking. She checked in, sent pictures, and loved my labradoodle like one of her own! I will definitely be re-booking!”
“Millie had the best time! Brooke took amazing care of her, sent daily updates, and even took professional headshots of Millie 😂. We love the pictures so much we’re going to frame them! We couldn’t be happier with the care she received during her stay!”
“Lynne watched our little girl for 4 days and 5 nights while we were on a trip. She texted me and sent me pics of my dog to let me know how things were going. I would recommend Lynne to anyone.”
“Angela watched our cat. It was the first time we used a sitter and I was a little apprehensive about the experience as Missy is an older cat and is not used to 'strangers'. Angela kept us well informed on Missy's behavior and routine at her house and sent pictures regularly. We felt reassured and were confident that she was well taken care of. We will definitely ask Angela to keep Missy, if the need arises again.”
About: Having owned and cared for dogs and cats since I was little I understand how important it is to keep pets comfortable and safe. I love dogs and cats and will follow any routines they have. I can also provide as many updates and or photos as you may need. Available daily for petsitting and walking. I'm a student and setting up some new jobs and I'm currently with family who often goes on trips so availability may change occasionally. At my house pets are treated with lots of care I am not the type of person to punish and if needed I will provide any space needed
“This was our second time using Megan. Jack and Lillie love Megan. We will book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and communicative pet sitter.”
“So thankful for Taylor and so are our dogs. She welcomed us and our dogs into her home and treated our dogs as her own. She sent lots of pics and video to keep in touch whilst we were traveling. Incredible service and care. I’m sure if they could talk our doggos would be asking when they get to visit Taylor’s house next. :)”
“The setup and care Thor received was outstanding! Will definitely use Susan again! She sent pictures and updates frequently. He looked happy in the pictures. No concerns or issues at all.”
“Erin had great communication, flexible with our drop off and pick up. Erin & George sent photos throughout Lola’s short stay. We were referred by friends and we are so happy that we found our new sitters.”
“Indy quickly became comfortable and followed Jennifer's son around for 3 straight days, even feeling comfortable sleeping next to him (which he let her do!). Jennifer was quick to respond and update when I needed it, and the neighborhood couldn't have been better (big lots, no traffic). 5 stars.”
“Jon was so sweet and went over the top to make my girl feel comfortable. She’s a pretty anxious dog and takes a while to warm up, and he really won her trust over her two night stay! She seemed very relaxed when I picked her up, and Jon provided plenty of pictures of them hanging out over the weekend.”
About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals and would be honored to care for your furry family members. Growing up, I was surrounded by both large and small dogs, as well as indoor and feral cats, so I’m comfortable with a variety of personalities, needs, and energy levels. My professional background is in senior care, where I coordinated care across West Louisville and served as an Activities Director in several local senior living communities. Those roles taught me the importance of patience, reliability, communication, and treating every individual with kindness and respect. I bring that same level of care and attention to every pet I meet. Whether your pet needs companionship, playtime, a calm presence, or just someone dependable to keep their routine on track, I’ll treat them like one of my own. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine. I’m a stay-at-home mom, so I’m home throughout the day and able to give pets plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. My 2-year-old loves dogs, and caring for pets is a sweet way for our family to spend time with animals while providing them with a loving, comfortable home environment. I don’t have a fenced-in yard, but my kids and I are very active and love going on walks, spending time outdoors, and giving pets plenty of attention and playtime. In my home, your pet will be treated like part of the family with a safe, comfortable space to relax, regular potty breaks and walks, playtime, meals and medications given exactly as instructed, and lots of love and supervision. I’ll follow their normal routine as closely as possible and can accommodate crate-trained pets if needed. In a client’s home, I’ll make sure your pet is comfortable in their familiar environment while providing reliable walks, feeding, fresh water, playtime, cuddles, litter box or potty cleanup, and any medication or special care they need. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away.
“Wendy and her family her very welcoming. They took pictures and provided me with them and updates about Freyja and how she was doing. They took amazing care of her. I will be using them every time I am needing someone to care for Freyja. I am so very thankful for Wendy and her family, they made my vacation better knowing that Freyja was being cared for so well!!!”
“Miah was very easy to work with and very professional. We were out of the country for 2 weeks and Miah went out of her way to reassure us we had nothing to worry about. She sent lots of pictures and videos and even gave our dog a gift after her stay which included toys and treats. We will definitely use her again and highly recommend!”

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.
96% of sitters in Flaherty 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 Flaherty 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 Flaherty.
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 Flaherty. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 Flaherty 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.
