“Beth was so patient and kind, I have never left my dog with a non-family member and she's a little codependent but Beth (and Tupac/Kiddo!) were so sweet and made her feel at home. She sent updates over the weekend and was amazing with our pickup/drop off schedule and my anxiety. Thanks so much!”
“This is the 2nd time our fur baby has stayed with Jessica and her family. They make sure his special dietary needs are met and that he has lots of playtime. I love all the pictures she sends while we are on vacation. It’s wonderful to have such a great family looking out for our fur baby.”
“This is the first time that I had my dog Comet with an overnight (from May 17-21) dog sitter. I went on Rover.com and they had plenty of members that would pet sit. I chose Amanda because I felt she would be a perfect fit to take care of my puppy who is 8 months old. She was wonderful! She sent me photos of Comet over the 5 days he was with her and her lovely family. I love that Rover.com has so many sitters to choose from and the fact that Amanda only takes one dog at a time since she already have 2 of her own. She was warm and very loving to Comet which I love. I would recommend Rover.com and Amanda to anyone who needs a pet sitter who is loving and caring.”
“Amanda was amazing with our 4 year old Vizsla. She treated her like a queen and helped our anxious dog feel right at home. I will definitely use Amanda again and can’t recommend her enough.”
“Megan took great care of my dog and was great about sharing pictures and letting me know he was doing good while I was out of town. Sounded like he got along great with her dog as well. Definitely recommend her if you need someone to look after your dog.”
“Carla was very accessible and accommodating. She sent frequent updates during our vacation, and genuinely liked spending time with our dog. She also has a great dog and a great family, and we will contact her the next time we go out of town.”
“Jared and Waverly were the absolute best! Very communicative, set up a meet and greet so my pups could meet theirs beforehand, and sent me a bunch of pictures while I was gone! Always kept me updated, super friendly - and my dogs just got home and are sleeping super soundly because they just got to play all weekend. If you’re in need of a sitter, I would 1000% recommend Jared and Waverly!”
“Riley had a great time and Mariah did a great job of keeping me updated with information and pictures and videos. I felt safe and secure leaving him there, knowing that he would be well cared for, and he was! Would absolutely recommend and use again.”
“Yeti had THE BEST time during his stay with Meg & her family. I really appreciated the updates while I was away-the pictures and videos really made my day. Meg’s dog Bubba is also super playful so it truly was like he was away at day camp with his friends. Thank you a million for loving on my Yeti boy while I was out of town!”
“I previously had boarded my dog before trying rover, and I will never go back. Angela was AMAZING! She took and shared lots of photos and updates while we were on vacation. Bruno loved playing with her dogs and kids, too! I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Rylee is amazing. Our plans with our original dog sitter fell through last minute for our week long vacation. She was a life saver. Ladybird had a healing broken nail. She there were a ton of instructions and Rylee handled it like a champ and made us feel very comfortable. Your dog will be well loved and cared for in her home. She will definitely become our go-to for any future trips.”
“Lynne watched our little girl for 4 days and 5 nights while we were on a trip. She texted me and sent me pics of my dog to let me know how things were going. I would recommend Lynne to anyone.”
“We booked extremely last minute & Nelson saved the day. This was our second time boarding with him & he took great care of our fur babies. Would def use Nelson’s services again!”
“So grateful that we found Michael to care for our pup! He was prompt with communication, sent sweet photos and updates while we were away, and kept our dog feeling happy while we were away. Definitely recommend!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Jeffersontown
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!
I cannot recommend Amanda enough! She watched my dog, Salem, for six days while I was out of town, and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such great hands. She sent me multiple adorable pictures every day and kept me updated throughout his entire stay. Salem typically takes a while to warm up to new people and is definitely not a fan of other dogs, so I was genuinely amazed that he not only got along well with Amanda’s dog, but was already sleeping in bed with Amanda on his very first night! That alone told me how comfortable and safe he felt with her. He came home happy, well cared for, and — something I especially appreciated after experiences with other sitters — clean and not smelling like he’d spent six days at a pet sitter! 😂 Amanda clearly treated Salem like one of her own, and I’m so grateful for the care and attention she gave him. I would absolutely trust her with him again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful, attentive, and trustworthy pet sitter!
Stephie is friendly reliable and knowledgeable. When my dog came down with a stomach bug she communicated with me and was very patient with him. I love how she sent me multiple pictures everyday and kept me up to date on his daily activities. They have a fenced in back yard and plenty of space. Her home is also super clean. Thank you so much stephie for taking such good care of my baby and i look forward to booking again in the future!!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Jeffersontown is $33 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $50 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 of October 2026, there are 442 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Jeffersontown. 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.
97% of sitters in Jeffersontown 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 Jeffersontown 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 Jeffersontown.
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 Jeffersontown 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.
