“Ana was great with my Maltese/shih Tzu. This is the first time she’s stayed with anyone more than two days, so we (me & dog) were both a little nervous for this weeklong stay. But Ana sent me a picture and video so I was able to relax and enjoy my time away. I’ll definitely use her again. Very pleased!”
“Miranda is great! She took wonderful care of our dog, taking him on walks and playing with him outside. She sends pictures and updates throughput each day. Highly recommend Miranda.”
“Andrew made our Bear feel welcome right away by playing with him and introducing him to his small dog, Lucky Bear. He had lots of room to play inside and was given regular walks. Andrew sent us pictures throughout Bear’s visit and our boy looked very happy. I appreciate Andrew’s quick and thoughtful responses to my text messages. We’d definitely use him again for watching Bear.”
“Jennifer was initially communicative, and took good care of our little Pomeranian while we went away. After being prompted, she did send some sweet photos, which was nice. We were pleased with our decision to choose her as our sitter!”
“The communication, photos, and care have been great. We can trust that our dogs will come home happy, which is especially important for our older anxious girl. I’m pretty sure our girls are just as happy and comfortable at their house as they are ours .”
“She is now my first choice when choosing a sitter. My dog is friendly, but she really took to Aubreyanna right away. Every time I checked in she was immediately available and I didn't have to worry. Top notch service!”
About: I have always had dogs and loved them! I have pet sat anything from dogs to donkeys. I am ok with potty training, as I taught my own puppy!! short drop ins, long hours, overnight, I’ll do it all. I would love to help out your family💙 I have a very flexible schedule with class, and am available during the workday (and overnight)!! I can drop in to let the pooch out, or stay and let them get some energy out:) I am a great rule follower! If you have special instructions I will be sure to follow them closely. With having years and years of experience not only pet sitting, but fostering, and even owning my own dog, I can problem solve lots of the time aswell!!
About: I have had dogs for 46 years. I currently have three spayed female cocker spaniels that are 1.5, 3, and 3-years-old. They are very used to other dogs as we go to the dog park everyday. I lost my 12-year-old cocker spaniel to CHF. I know how important it is for medication to be given at exactly the right times at precisely the right amounts. I pay attention to detail, and make sure your dog is always safe. We go to the dog park everyday and can take any dog who is used to that environment and does well with others. I work from home with a flexible schedule. I am an early riser, and I will always be there when I say I will. Your dog will always be a priority. Beginning August 1st 2026 I'm available every day of the week. So long as the dogs are friendly and potty trained and are not destructive, they have full run of the house. Please no heavy shedders.
“Maggie is sweet! Our dog seemed to have a great time with her, her dog, and cats. Her dog took a bit of time to warm up to our dog, but it seemed they became good friends shortly thereafter.”
“Lauren is great and I highly recommend booking her! I was nervous about leaving my dog for vacation since I had just moved and Lauren was very sympathetic. My dog loved her dog and settled right in. Lauren communicated with me and sent videos and photos of my dog having a blast. I will definitely be booking Lauren again!”
“Alex and Martha have a clean home, a gorgeous backyard and multiple sweet, furry friends that Calliope LOVED to play with. They were communicative and very accommodating - I got picture/video updates every day, and I could tell Calliope was having a BLAST. Will absolutely reach out when I need someone to watch my Gremlin Princess again :)”
“Amber was so sweet watching my dog Grace for a weekend trip! She even agreed to a meet and greet ahead of time to make sure my baby was comfortable! I appreciate the thought and effort she put into puppy sitting and hope to have her watch Grace again”
“This was the first time I had left my five-year-old corgi since adopting him five months ago. Laura gave him all the attention and walks he needed. My only disappointment was that he wasn’t more excited to see me when I got back! He will definitely remember Laura next time.”
“Kristin and her family were amazing! I had to make a last minute change to my booking. Kristin was very understanding and accommodating! She kept me updated every day and took great care of my pups, I would highly recommend booking her!”
“Audrey and Samuel are amazing they always take great care of my pups! Our dogs are a handful but they love having them and the dogs always get so excited when we turn down their street!”

I have used Laura a few different times now My dogs love her and she's super attentive, always providing updates ensuring that she has the correct directions and my doggo absolutely loves her I was blessed to find her when I had an older dog that needed care and she was very sweet and attentive to my girl before she passed I will continue using her and recommend her to anyone who would like to book with her.
From the moment we met Tania, she was friendly and welcoming. She introduced Molly to her pets and the layout of her home and fenced-in yard. Molly had to learn to use the Dog Door and did so While away, Tania sent photos and videos of Molly enjoying herself. It is clear that Tania cares deeply for pets. Molly had a wonderful time, and we will look forward to using Tania again.
Candice took care of my 1 year old high energy dog for 7 days. Very good with messaging back and sending daily pictures and videos. Her and Clementine did very well with keeping Astrid entertained even when it was super cold outside. When my girl misbehaved, she made sure to ask questions on how best to find a solution. Thank you for taking such good care of my baby.
Megan is a lovely person who truly cares for animals. She did everything to make Molly's stay pleasant, relaxing and fun. Molly had a sleep issue initially as she adjusted, but Megan was able to calm her and resolve it for the rest of the week. We would definitely use Megan again and hihly recommend her!🐾❤️
Brittney always takes good care of our little old Pomeranian. She is communicative, attentive, and sends photos. We always appreciate when she is available to take good care of our fur baby. Upon pickup, my husband even noted one of her neighbors recognized our dog from recent walks Brittney took her on. She genuinely enjoys caring for our fur baby, and is great at doing it. We will always book Brittney when she is available!

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Lexington on Rover is $36.75 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 234 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Lexington. About 97% of Lexington sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
