“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.”
“Finny is nice and tired coming home from Holly’s house - I am sure from playing with Millie nonstop. ☺️ love getting the pics of them. Thanks for watching him again, Holly!”
“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.”
“Leeann was absolutely wonderful with our little guy. She provided regular updates and even sent some pictures. We are so happy with the decision to book Leeann and will definitely use her again for future trips!”
About: I have taken care of dogs of every kind since I was young. I have firsthand experience raising puppies, including my own golden retriever and various other breeds while growing up in my family. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to check in with, feed, and play with their pets. I am patient, attentive, and treat every dog like my own. I work from home full-time, which means your pet will rarely be alone. My flexible schedule allows for frequent potty breaks, midday walks, and plenty of cuddle time throughout the day. I’m available for boarding and daycare every day of the week. I live in a comfortable townhome with a partially fenced backyard and spacious front yard. Safety is my top priority, I live in a dog-friendly neighborhood and I am very attentive to your dog’s body language and comfort levels on walks. I am very happy to take your dog on regular walks, and live in a neighborhood where there is a big park nearby. I treat your pets as if they were my own and ensure they feel safe, secure, and right at home.
“Rachel is wonderful! From my first communication with her, I felt very confident that she would take amazing care of our dog! The pictures sent were very helpful knowing he was comfortable and happy in her home! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!”
“Want to thank Abbie for watching our 2 dogs Winston and Jet for 4 days while we went on a short vacation. She was easy to work with and provkded text updates and pics of our dogs playing and relaxing at her home. Would recommend. Thanks again Abbie!!”
“Patricia was amazing with our baby boy Tito. He stayed with her for 11 days while we were on vacation, and that was the first time he was separated from us. She was updating us every day and she was sending us pictures. Our baby boy Tito was enjoying with her in her beautiful home and big yard. We will definitely leave Tito with her again,and we will recommend Patricia to all our friends and neighbors. Thank you Patti so much ❤️, Your furry baby boy Tito with mommy Jelena and daddy Dragan 😘”
“Monte did a wonderful job keeping tabs on my pup! He was kind and welcoming with the introductions, as well as his furry companion. Definitely will be contacting Monte again in the future.”
“Cori and her family treated dreamer like family. She had a great time there and was spoiled. It was my first time using her and she kept me informed with pictures and videos. I would definitively use her again.”
“Meghan took great care of my senior dogs. Communicating with her was easy, and I really appreciated the peace of mind I had in knowing that my dogs were being well taken care of. Highly recommended!”
“I needed a place to board my dog for a night while my husband and I went to a wedding. Our dog has been to standard daycare facilities but isn't fond of being left alone so we didn't like the idea of her staying in a kennel. Alison was really accommodating and assured us that our sweet girl would get plenty of attention and play time with her own dogs, which is perfect because our girl loves to make friends. We were afraid that she'd have trouble settling in because she's very attached to us, but we were put at ease when Alison sent a picture of our girl sleeping on a comfy couch. They also made sure she had her allergy meds and food. This is exactly the environment and attention our dog needs to be comfortable being away from us for a bit. Thank you so much for watching her!”
“Erica went above and beyond to help keep my sweet boy comfy while I was out of town. She was very welcoming, sent daily updates and communicative. I felt very comfortable having him stay with her and would absolutely trust her to watch him again. I can’t recommend her enough!”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Fort Wright is $40
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fort Wright
I am absolutely thrilled with the care and attention my dog received while staying with Jenny. The big yard was a dream come true for my dog! But what truly made the experience stand out was the personal attention and love my dog received from her. The homemade treats were a wonderful touch, and it's clear that Jenny went above and beyond to make my dog feel welcome and comfortable! What really says it all is that my dog didn't want to leave when it was time to go home - that's the highest praise I can think of! Jenny has a clear passion for pets and a gift for providing top-notch care! Thank you!!
Maddie was recommended by a friend and I see why ! She is an amazing pet sitter ! She was able to accept our last min request and was very flexible and communicative. Our dog had the best time enjoying the huge yard & even got to go on a jog !! Maddie was sure to give plenty of pics and updates. Def would recommend her to any family & friends !
Reggie had a great time with Anastasia! She asked lots of questions to make sure that he was well taken care of. She also did a great job of keeping me updated. When I took him to her house the day after our meet and greet, he was actually excited when he realized where we were going. That’s incredibly rare. I will definitely use her again.
Erica went above and beyond to help keep my sweet boy comfy while I was out of town. She was very welcoming, sent daily updates and communicative. I felt very comfortable having him stay with her and would absolutely trust her to watch him again. I can’t recommend her enough!
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!

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.
93% of sitters in Fort Wright 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 Fort Wright 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 Fort Wright.
<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 Fort Wright 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.
