“Amazing! I was a sad, nervous wreck about leaving my puppy for the weekend but only a few hours later and he had forgotten about me and had made all new friends!! Josephine really eased our minds and took great care of something so precious to us. Will definitely be rebooking when we go out of town or need a sitter!”
“Couldn’t be happier. Julie was communicative, friendly, and thoughtful. This was my first time leaving my pup with someone I didn’t know and Julie provided updates, pictures, and videos at a perfect cadence that kept my mind at ease. I will absolutely use her again!!”
“Lynn watched our 7month old puppy for the weekend. She was well taken care of in a loving pet friendly home.I would highly recommend her to anyone. She also has it set up for very small dogs or older dogs. Jellybean had a weekend vacation just like we did.”
“Hello Scott and family. You folks already know what I'm doing to say...awesome job!!! From beginning to end your communication was spot on. My wife and I appreciate that. Any concerns that we had, you folks addressed them immediately. Thank you. It was obvious that you and your family's care of our girls (and boy) made a positive impact on them. Trust. Dogs know. Thank you again.”
“Always amazing but this time even more… they worked with me when my flight was delayed Nd help out my mind at ease! And my babies adore them! Thank you again! You’re the BEST!!!”
“May and David were great with our dogs! They treated them like their own! They communicated with us everyday and sent pictures! We will use them again in the future. It is such a relief to not have to worry about your pets when you’re on vacation.”
“Amber Zack and the little girl took good care of my baby, he hung out and watched TV with him and I haven't heard him complain once! I appreciate them and yes, I would use them again anytime! Thanks to you guys”
“We left our two dogs (Chihuahua & French Bulldog), with April, her family and her own dog this past weekend, and we couldn't be happier. We did a meet and greet ahead of the stay, and our boys explored and got to meet everyone. April provided a wonderful, welcoming environment. She communicated well throughout the weekend and sent some snaps, putting our minds at ease. April noted she paid special attention when the weather was warmer outside not to let our frenchie play outside too long. (Which is always a plus knowing someone is giving breed-specific attention with a frenchie) It’s clear they were well-cared for and entertained the entire stay. It’s such a relief to know our boys were in such good hands and had so much fun. We will definitely be booking with April again!”
“Genella was great. She kept me updated on how Southern was doing. In the past when I have boarded him, he is stressed out for a couple days when he gets home. He wasn’t like that this time. I know he felt comfortable there. I highly recommend!”
“Great sitter, our fur puppy was happy there, seemed like she had a grwat time. Had fun playing with her new friends there too. Will definitely keep them in mind for future needs. We recommend them if you need a sitter, and they are flexible with drop off and picknup times which helps a lot!”
“I have never ever used this app and i actually found some one i can trust with my ESA next time i ever use this app i would have Emily watch her this lady i trust so much with my dog and my dog looked happy with Emily and her dogs thank you so much”
“Amazing!! The sweetest couple ever and my puppy had so much fun playing with their dogs! Also got great updates over the time she was there with cute pics! Thanks so much!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and have always loved caring for them. Growing up, I regularly pet sat for family friends, helping with feeding, walks, playtime, and keeping their dogs company while they were away. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes and personalities, and I’ll always treat your pet like they’re my own. I am a student, and my class schedule is flexible, which allows me to make plenty of time for walks, check-ins, playtime, and overnight care. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine and can accommodate both weekday and weekend bookings. I take pet safety seriously and always follow the routine and instructions you provide. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and supervision, and I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, crates, and any specific household rules. I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.
“I like to think Sabo thinks of Regina and Ted’s home as a doggy getaway. They always take great care of him and when he comes home he’s out like a light! I can tell he had a blast, Thank you guys again!”
About: I have loved dogs since I was a little girl. I have always had one in my life. A day without a dog isn't possible for me. I have dog sat for neighbors and friends and a few clients for quite some time. I love to play with the dogs and go for walks. Your dog will be well taken care of with me as I know dogs are some people's kids. Because I know mine sure is!

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 Lexington 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 Lexington 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 Lexington.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Lexington 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 OK 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.
