“Beth was so nice and absolutely wonderful! I love that she likes to meet the dogs ahead of time to make sure they are a right fit for her and her adorable sweet dog. She sent lots of pictures and updates and will definitely book again with her!”
“Nissa took such wonderful care of our dogs! They had so much fun and I loved all the thoughtful updates while we were gone. I felt so much better knowing they were in great hands!”
“Patrick was great! Prompt communication and plenty of picture updates on Guthrie, who looked to be having the time of his life. I swear Guthrie was positively beaming when I picked him up! The afterglow remains several days after.”
“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!!”
“Chris was amazing!! Was very easy to communicate with and provided us with peace of mind. He sent us lots of pictures and videos, our dog had a great time!! We will definitely be booking with him again.”
“Jared and Waverly were amazing with my pup! Jared met us outside and made the drop off and pick up a breeze! They sent me so many picture of my dog with cute captions and having fun with other dogs! I felt like he was in great hands and did not worry while I was away! Highly recommend :)”
“Incredible care for Oakley. I highly recommend Elizabeth and Phillip. They have Aussie experience and it made whole stay much easier. Oakley fit right in and I appreciated their flexibly on his food and exercises!”
“My pooch Cali is always happy to see Rachel and doggie friends. She leaps out of the car ! Rachel is a great communicator and sends photos ! Highly recommend.”
“Haley absolutely saved our life with a VERY last minute booking. She was super responsive, updated with photos, and was super close which made it the easiest experience possible. Cannot rave about her enough!!”
“Collin is amazing and I am so blessed that my kitty, Penny, was able to board with such a loving family. Much to my surprise, Penny and Collin's kitty, Nala, became BFFs and played together! Collin kept me updated on Penny and her stay with him and his family. Truly, there is no better sitter in Louisville for fur babies!”
“AMANDA IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST!!! Amanda watched our Goldendoodle for 4 days and 3 nights! She sent so many pictures and kept us up-to-date on all the things he did. I was so impressed and I will use Amanda in the future to watch Oliver. I cannot say enough good things about Amanda and my dog is everything to me!!!! So it says a lot about Amanda and her professionalism. Thank you Amanda for allowing us to get away and have no worries.”
“I had such a great experience with this dog sitter! From the moment we met, it was clear how sweet, kind, and genuinely caring they are—not just toward people, but especially toward animals. My dog felt comfortable right away, which gave me so much peace of mind. They were attentive, responsible, and kept me updated, which I really appreciated. It’s obvious they truly love what they do, and it shows in the way they treat the dogs in their care. I could tell my dog was happy, well cared for, and even a little spoiled with attention! I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pet.”
“Sarah sis really great with our dogs. They came home happy, healthy, and well-cared for. Sarah took they on walks and allowed them on couches and beds. We are so appreciate of her and the positive stay had by our pups! Would recommend and book again.”
“They did a wonderful job!! They really put my mind at ease. I was so grateful that they reassured me when I was worried about the flight delay. They also firmly reassured me and eased my anxiety about my senior dog, allowing me to have a wonderful vacation. And I loved their very clean environment where my dog was staying. I am grateful to have met such wonderful people after moving to this new place, and I feel like going on vacation in the future will be a source of joy rather than worry from now on. I highly recommend Rachel & Frank.”
“Melody was fantastic! We have a dog who struggles with separation anxiety- but not at Melody’s house. She has a great setup for dogs! Our mini Schnauzer and two labs were happy and well cared for. We were on a cross country road trip and Melody accommodated us with the drop off and pick up timing. Highly recommend!”
“I’m so happy I chose Alexa to watch my baby boy. It was my first time using rover and I was beyond nervous. She did AMAZING with him and he ended up being so comfortable there! Like his second home, I will only ever go to her when I need a sitter for him!! Thank you so much!”
“Shane was awesome! Our dog stayed with him over the holidays, and clearly had a great time, he even gave her a stocking full of dog goodies! He sent videos of her running laps in his yard and provided excellent communication and updates. I feel like we won the Dogsitter lottery with Shane, highly recommend!”
“Daniela was amazing! I trust her with my babies! She is great with communicating, she is fast with responding as well. She sent lots of pictures and videos throughout their stay. She was so accommodating to my needs. I will definitely use her again in the future!”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Hurstbourne
This was the first time using Rover. Carla was wonderful! She sent me some updates and picture while we were on our trip. Vivian tends to not react as much when we are away, this didn’t happen at all… which cracked me up and loved because I knew she felt at home! 😂😊🫶
We had such a great experience with Chris! Samson was well taken care of, and I’m convinced Chris has some kind of magic touch! Our boy normally barks at cars nonstop, but on the ride home, not ONE bark! Whatever Chris did, we need his secrets! 😂 10/10 would recommend and would happily book with him again!
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!
Brooke did a wonderful job with my two fur baby. She sent lots of pictures, keeping me up to date with their active. She was also very flexible when I needed to alter drop off or pick up. She was very fast replying to all communications. I will definitely be using her again.

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 Hurstbourne 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 Hurstbourne.
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 Hurstbourne 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.
