“Stephen and Angela were great! Our pup tends to get nervous in new settings especially where other dogs are involved and I had no doubt they wouldn’t be great for the job! She was very confused by the chicken coop in the yard but I’m very grateful she had that experience since she’s never been able to meet a chicken before and this gave her the chance to acclimate to something new 🤣 Also they are very communicative and quick to respond which I very much appreciate! Thank you for a great experience, we will definitely book again!”

“This has got to be one of our best Rover experiences! Jessica and her wonderful family took great care of our extremely anxious dog and we can literally see a change in our dog since she's back. She's been so less anxious and i think its probably because of Jessica's little boys and her 2 adorable Corgis that made our dog feel safe and excited and calm at the same time. They took our dog on regular walks and were very considerate of her health issues the whole time. Jessica kept us constantly updated with pictures and daily activities. Her boys also packed us a little goodie bag as our dog left them that was so endearing. They had a great yard and beautiful neighborhood that seems to be a pup haven! I'd leave our dog with Jessica and her family anytime again in a heartbeat! Thank you, Jessica!!”

“Rachel had watched one or more of my dogs 4 times now. Most recently, my bratty 2 year old Rottweiler. Rachel and partner were great from the beginning! No fear of my dog, didn’t rush her, even informed me some things that I didn’t know. Rachel always sends pictures throughout. My baby had such a good time and was worn out at pick-up.”

Jian was the answer to our prayers. Not only did she take excellent care of Louis she constantly updated us with sweet texts and pictures. I couldn’t have found anyone better. I would be very happy to have her care for Louis again. I honestly cannot say enough great things about her. She was excellent

It was my 14 month old Vizslas first time staying with a sitter (or anywhere but home) so I was a little nervous about leaving him for a week. Meg was super responsive and kept me updated on how he was doing with pictures and I felt so at ease knowing he was in great hands. I would 10/10 recommend her to anyone and will definitely be boarding with her again in the future! She made him feel at home and he had such a great time!

I booked with Patrick on short notice. He was exceptionally accommodating to my needs and my Rusty. Patrick sent daily pictures of my doggo and his friends playing and getting along. I was a little worried how it would go, but it was a good time. I was told when Patrick dropped off Rusty, he didn’t want to come home. So.. he must have made a lot of friends there. I will book again if the need arises. I highly recommend Patrick.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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.

Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Forest Hills 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 Forest Hills.

<b>Tip:</b> 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 Forest Hills 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.
