“Beth was so responsive and provided great detail into any message she sent regarding Ivan. I never once had to message her first to ask how he was doing. She made sure to send me lots of messages and lots of photos and I felt very comfortable leaving Ivan in her care. would highly recommend her I cannot say enough good things.”
“Robin took great care of my girls. She took special care to be sure she had all the details to make them feel right at home. She communicated and sent pictures both days I was gone. I am very pleased with their stay and will definitely use her again.”
“I have never left my dogs with a sitter before and Jessica was amazing. Completely eased my mind about leaving my boys with her and kept me updated with pictures while I was away. I will definitely use her again.”
“Sharon is absolutely amazing! My boy is a very anxious boy and has severe separation anxiety. Sharon had him so comfortable and settled almost immediately. I am so grateful to her for the care and love she gave Salem while I was out of the country for two weeks. Sharon provided me multiple daily updates complete with adorable videos of Salem. Her dog, Wes, was the perfect buddy for Salem too! Her fenced-in yard is fantastic for doggies to sniff and play in. I was so nervous to leave my boy for so long, but having Sharon as his sitter truly made all my worries disappear. She was also incredibly flexible and understanding when I had a flight delay. I cannot recommend Sharon (and Wesley!) enough!!”
“Very communicative, friendly, caring, and overall a great experience. They gave us updates on Maggie, how/what she was doing, and pictures. We could tell they love what they do and care about the dogs in their charge. They went out of their way to do a meet-and-greet upfront, and they care that the dogs are a good fit and will get along. Will definitely be using them regularly in the future.”
“Crystal was a fantastic host for our girl. She was very responsive and shared pics with us daily. The household was a welcoming place and we would recommend her to anyone looking for a temporary home for a furry friend.”
“Elizabeth and Phillip took great care of Hannah, and kept us informed and up to date with messages and pictures. Would certainly engage their services again!”
“I could tell Nala had a great stay with Carla and felt comfortable while she was there. Carla sent lots of pictures which helped me feel great about how she was doing and she was also very communicative about her scheduling. Thanks, Carla!”
“Dan gave the best accommodation for my golden. Very responsive and was also able to take him on very short notice. He had great time at her home and kids gave best playtime for him. She had updated the status and sent photos all day which I liked very much. I would definitely recommend her and also drop my golden in future.”
“Melody was wonderful with my baby. This was brownies first time away from home and she welcomed her into hers as she was her own. Will definitely trust her again with my dog.”
“It was a great experience for my pet! They kept up with pics daily and I could tell he enjoyed every minute. He was entertained and played with their dogs as well. I was also given a goody bag at pick up which was wonderful of them. Will for sure use them again!”
“Tina was great with our dog! Sent pictures and updates of our pet every day. Super flexible with our times of drop off & pick up. Highly recommend and will definitely use again!”

“I can’t say enough good things about these folks. To start, they spent an hour with me and Benny (my pup) in advance of my trip and introduced us to their place. Benny loved the big backyard and I could tell he immediately felt at home. During my trip, I received daily videos of Benny playing with other dogs or being loved on, which made me feel good knowing I was so far away from home. Benny is such a good dog and I am grateful to have connected with people as equally good and loving. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.”
“Daniela was amazing! She updated us daily with pictures, kept us in the loop on activities and was always quick to respond. Our pooch came back in great spirits and may have even been a little sad to be home, hah! I can't recommend Daniela more highly, we will certainly work with her again.”
“Penny seem to settle right in with Elaine and Cal and the regular picture updates we received! Even when I arrived to pick her up, she barely wanted to stop playing and exploring!”

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 Houston Acres home-away-from-home, 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 Houston Acres.
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 Houston Acres 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 , 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 .
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.
