“Hope was phenomenal and we will absolutely use her again! Any concern of mine was addressed promptly, concerns of hers were brought to my attention right away, and she sent plenty of updates and pictures. Thabk you!”

“Amazing. That’s the only word needed. They took our baby in as there’s for his stay and accommodated us in so many ways. They definitely set the bar high! 💛”


“A wonderful experience @ Erin's! It's clear they love dogs and my two were happy and healthy when I picked them up after a weekend away. Will definitely look to them again when I need to go out of town.”

“I’m so glad to have found Olivia to watch Luna for a week long combined fun & work trip. She communicated throughout and sent cute pics. I would definitely choose Olivia again in the future!”

About: I have over 30 years of pet care experience, taking care of puppies and kittens through senior dogs and cats. I don’t have children and consider my pets my children! You will have no worries while you are away from them. I have been there and understand what it’s like to be away from my pets and worrying that the people that I asked to look after my pets won’t get there on time to let them out or will forget and not feed them or give them water or scoop their litter box. If you hire me you will not have that problem. You can relax on your vacation or on your business trip knowing that your fur babies are taken care of. I currently work as a merchandiser and have a flexible schedule and can arrange my schedule to include pet visits at any time of the day. I do not currently have a fenced in yard but plan on getting one so if you want me to keep them in my home, I will leash them and walk them.
“Tyler was awesome. He has a great place and I could tell my dog would be well taken care of. My puppy greeted him like a long lost owner, I was a little worried he wouldn’t want to come back home with me. Lol. I was given photos and updates and I honestly just did not worry one bit the entire time Tyler had my pup. I am relieved that there is a trusted person to leave my pup with in the future should I need a dog sitter again.”

“Brooke went over and above to take care of Bella and make her stay enjoyable! She is an excellent communicator and I enjoyed the photos she sent throughout Bella’s stay. We will use Brooke again!”

About: I am very engaging with your pet. I love animals and every time I pet sit the owners tell me their pet misses me when I leave. I am Retired and this is the perfect job for me I have always loved animals and I have always had animals. I have a dog now a bichon who is older. I am flexible and open. I will try to work with the client and see what is the best for the family and the pet
“Scott was great with our two dogs. We got pictures and he seemed to actually enjoy being around the dogs. We have 2 mod-high energy babies and he managed them well. We will definitely be using him again.”

“Jessica communicated so well all week while watching our baby! I was nervous to leave him for so long but she sent updates and pictures and answered so fast!! Would recommend her for the anxious doggy parents and will book again!!!”

“This was my first time using Rover and I was very nervous, my girl is my whole world. Brynn was just absolutely amazing! We did a meet and greet first which was great, and then Kimura really had the best time during her stay! I can’t say enough good things. I got regular updates, and I truly felt my girl was being really cared for. I’m so grateful she had such a smooth and great time. :) definitely recommend!!”

“This was my first time leaving Simba with a sitter and Adria made sure he was taken care of! She sent pictures everyday as well. Bonus points because she went to pick up medicine for my baby🫶🏼”

About: I’ve owned and taken care of dogs for 50 years. I’ve taken care of up to seven dogs at once. I’ve had big and small dogs. All my dogs are adopted and some have had special needs. I’m retired, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups. I’m currently available to watch or board all week. I love taking dogs for walks. I have a fenced yard. Currently I don’t have any dogs but occasionally I watch my daughters dog. Even though I don’t have dogs I make sure all gates are closed and secured.
“We are so happy we picked Karl to look after Atlas while we were gone. Atlas has really bad separation anxiety. This is the first time we picked him up after a 10 day stay and he still has his weight from before the drop off. Karl does amazing with the dogs and he has a way of understanding their needs and helping them all enjoy their time. 10/10 will definitely let him look after Atlas again!!”

“Kaitlin is a wonderful fur baby carer. She stepped & helped us in a last minute need we had. She had us over for a meet & greet so our pup could get used to her new surroundings. Our little girl ran back in the next day & was very relaxed there. Kaitlin sent photos & updates to make us at ease. She even had roommates who loved on her. I’d highly recommend Kaitlin.”

“Karagen is definitely a 5 star pet sitter and boarder. This was my first experience with Rover and I was very nervous because my Puggsley is older. Upon arriving, Puggsley was very comfortable and I felt at ease. Her attentiveness to keeping me up to date with his daily care was phenomenal & gave me comfort. Karagen will be my only sitter/boarder moving forward. Thank you once again from me & Puggsley!!”

About: Raised in a small-town, country setting, I've been surrounded by animals my whole life. My past-times were spent caring for our farm cats, rabbits, chickens and ducks. In our home, I cared for an array of small animals such as reptiles, fish, hamsters, and of course the family dog and cat. I was a Dog Mom to an adopted Chihuahua for 10 years. I'm familiar with classic quirky Chi attitudes as well as separation anxiety. 🌈 I'm currently a dog Mom to a 4-year-old, 11lb, Chi-Terrier-Pekingese mix, named Sam. He's a friendly, playful, and goofy pup who loves being social with other k9's. (Doggie playdate anyone)? I fully understand that our fur-babies are a part of the family, and their care is important and specific. I'd love the opportunity to care for your fur-babies as directed whether it be a drop-in potty break, a walkie, or companion visit. I'm also comfortable welcoming your loved one into my home for daycare or overnight care on weekends if they enjoy human and k9 companionship. It's their world, we're just living in it. I am available for drop-in visits and walks nearly every day. I'm available most weekends to offer daycare and overnight care in my home. I am a career nanny and care for children in their home part-time on weekdays. I enjoy fitting pet care in around my childcare hours. I am dependable, trustworthy and caring. I will follow your instructions as outlined and care for your fur babies like I do my own. I'm comfortable administrating medications or supplements I'm familiar with. I live in a one level ranch home. My husband and I will be installing a fence in our backyard soon! Your fur-baby will free roam in my home, is allowed on furniture and will be spoiled with treats and snuggles if allowed. Our dog, Sam, enjoys playing and interacting with other dogs.
About: Hello im Riley, I’m an emergency veterinary technician, I’ve taken care off all animals from furry to scaly. Old and young!

About: I've lived with pets my entire life, so I understand the importance of caring for your furry friends. I currently care for three cats of my own, and look after my mother's dog when she leaves the house. I plan my own schedule through a delivery job, so I am available at most times to care for your pets! Excluding Sunday evenings and Monday mornings, I am readily available to help. I have a large fenced-in yard for dogs to run and play. My mother's dog lives at my house, so I can either keep them separated or let them play together depending on your dog's preferences! I can also crate your dog inside. I keep a baby gate at my master bedroom door so that dogs cannot access my three cats and no one gets hurt!

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 Gold City 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 Gold City.
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 Gold City 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.
