“Rebecca was fabulous! Agreed to dog sit for us at the very last minute when our booked dog sitter forgot and wasn’t home. Took such good care of our girl Lily. Gave her constant attention. Even took her shopping to Lowe’s. She had toys and other friendly dogs for Lily to play with. Lily was a happy and tired dog at the end of the day. Meanwhile, we were able to explore caves and have lunch and dinner without worrying about Lily. Even got pictures periodically and a cute video. Would definitely use Rebecca again!”
About: I was born loving dogs and cats! I am extremely attentive to their needs and always try to make them happy. I can assure you I will treat your dogs like my own and my dog is very spoiled. My home is one story and I live very close to a park. I would be happy to help you take care of your fur babies. I work Monday thru Friday and would love watching you fur baby on the weekends. I can walk dogs or visit cats after 5 pm cdt. I have a fenced on yard so dogs are free to run and sniff. I can also take them to the park where I love to walk.
About: Hello there! I am Allison. I’ve lived on a farm my whole life so animals is all I know! I have several dogs and cats of my own so I’m very familiar with animals and their own needs! Growing up my family gave me a dog to start out with so that I could learn responsibility and to learn what it took to take care of an animal, so I learned at a young age and I’ve been doing it every since! I don’t mind to travel to help out with your animals and give them the love they deserve while you are out and about. I also have a toddler who is wonderful with animals and she would love to meet yours! I work with animals all day, every day! The perks of living on a farm. I personally have five dogs that need love and attention. I like to follow instructions. The most important thing is keeping animals on their schedules/routines while on a trip or just visit. Love and compassion helps an animal from stressing unnecessarily.
“This was my first long trip away from my dog, Beetle, and Linda made it easy to be away without worry. She was responsive and communicative from start to finish, and sent excellent photos and updates throughout the days. She allowed us to meet up before the trip so that Beetle could be familiar with Linda and with the surroundings, which definitely helped put myself and Beetle at ease. Beetle came back relaxed and happy after his almost-week "vacation camp" at Linda's.”
“Michele was an amazing sitter! I could tell my pup was very comfortable and loved being with her. Michele sent lots of photos and videos and always kept me filled in. I look forward to hiring Michele again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Horse Cave is $44 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 and $59 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 long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 37 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Horse Cave. 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 Horse Cave 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 Horse Cave 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 Horse Cave.
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 Horse Cave 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.
