“I cannot recommend Curtis enough. We received professional service that I could tell his heart is really into. Our dog was cared for extremely well! I will have no hesitation booking with Curtis in the future.”
“Delane was great! Sent photos to keep us updated and allowed us enjoy our vacation without the need of worrying about our pup! Would absolutely book her services again if she’d have us!!”
“Sarah and her family were awesome! My Aussie had so much fun with their Aussie. Sarah is excellent with communication, sending updates/photos, and taking care of dogs. She has a wonderful backyard for them to play in and I was never worried about Kobe the whole time I was on vacation. Absolutely recommend Sarah as she truly loves dogs and knows how to take care of them. Thanks again Sarah for taking such great care of Kobe!”
“Highly recommend Alex and Jeff. Responsive and on point with all communications. Great yard and set up. Felt really good about leaving our pup with them.”
“Kristina provided a warm and caring environment for Mozart. She was receptive to his current dietary needs and was in touch frequently. Kristina's 2 dogs were friendly and easy going.”
“Ruby loved her time at Kim’s! This was her first time boarding and she came out super happy after all of the socialization time with the other dogs and Kim’s son. Kim gave frequent updates and clearly took great care of her!”
“The most caring, attentive, communicative and easy going sitter I've ever had. She sent photos, status updates and when Zaya wouldn't eat (because she was so nervous to be away from home), she asked about ways to entice her to eat and successfully got her to gobble up her meals. And when my plans changed last minute, she was able to accommodate us for an extra night without any issues. Very grateful to have found a dedicated sitter I can trust so much 🥰”
“Lincoln and Kinzie are always in great hands with Meghan and Hakon! We get lots of updates and the pups are loved on so much. Could not recommend them more to make your pup feel like part of the family and we will definitely reach out to them for another stay.”
“Maria is such a joy to work with and an incredible dog sitter! She’s incredibly communicative and sent lots of photos. We had 100% confidence that our pup was in the best possible care!”
“Charissa was wonderful with my dog Cora. She sent lots of updates and photos of my dog having a good time and checked with me about things if she had questions. I felt so happy to have found Charissa!”
“Breck had a great time at Tony and Nicole's home. They were super with communication and accommodating our schedule. Breck seemed well cared for and got along wonderfully with Louie. We highly recommend them and would use again.”
“Nicole was great! Our dog has "separation anxiety" and she (and his pup) made India feel welcome right away. We got updates and pics of India during the stay too. Nicole was also flexible and understanding about changes in our drop off and pick up times (last minute trip). We highly recommend her.”
“Karla is a total dog-sitting rockstar! Our dog couldn’t get enough of her. Her place is like doggy paradise - super comfy and safe with a big backyard. She sent me all great pics of Remy having a blast. Plus, she was on top of his meals like a pro. Karla is THE go-to person if you want your furry buddy to have an awesome time. Four paws up!”
“Sean is a wonderful sitter! He took Ultra on multiple adventures during her overnight stay, and she came back happy (and tired from so much fun.) I really appreciated the photo updates, which reassured us that she was getting amazing care. I'll definitely be looking for an opportunity to rebook soon!”
“Erika was wonderful with Freyja. She walked her multiple times a day, and even let me know of a lump she found under her fur. We had an unexpected delay in our trip and Erika offered to keep watching our girl and even get more food. Will definitely book again!”
“Michelle was wonderful with our dog Roxy. She sent us updates daily on how Roxy was doing and also sent photos and videos too. I highly recommend Michelle and her family. Thanks Michelle for taking such good care of our pup.”
“Heather and her family are truly wonderful! This was our first time using Rover and Heather went above and beyond to look after our 2 pups. They went on walks, to the dog park, had plenty of play time and snuggles, and came back home looking so happy! We especially loved all the photo updates - amazing communication. Heather truly does look after your pups like they’re family!”

This was Sparky’s first boarding with Meghan and Hakone and they made him feel so comfortable. They are the sweetest and it made me feel so at ease to leave Sparky with them. They took such great care of Sparky who has to take a lot of medication and a senior that is very picky ( more like a Diva) They treated Sparky like their own and I appreciated all the attention they gave to him and the walks! It’s comforting to know that they are both there to take care of him or at least one of them are there to help care for him. I really appreciated the updates, pictures and a video ! He will be boarding with them again soon!
This was our first time Dottie stayed with Sarah. Sarah took great care of Dottie. We received daily pictures and Dottie was smiling on every one! Sarah also let me know when Dottie’s poops were a little soft and when they were back to normal, indicating to me that she is an attentive caregiver. We will most definitely be reaching out to Sarah again when we need care.
Moriah took very good care of my old man while we were out of town. He takes several medications and doesn’t move around well anymore so I was very nervous leaving him. Moriah always responded timely and provided pictures. I wouldn’t hesitate to book again in the future or to recommend Moriah to friends!
We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From our first meeting, it was obvious that Scout was in caring, capable hands. Throughout the stay, we received regular updates, photos, and messages that gave us complete peace of mind. When we picked Scout up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly comfortable, which says everything. It’s such a relief to know there’s someone we can trust completely when we’re away. We will absolutely book again and recommend them without hesitation to anyone looking for an exceptional Rover sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Scout!
Curtis was amazing with our golden doodle pup! She had a blast going to the dog park, going on walks and snuggling on the couch. We had daily photo updates and notes to keep us updated. Although we missed our pup on our week away, we never doubted that she was having the best time. We would highly recommend Curtis.
Our pup had a great time with Karla and her family! This was our first time using a person rather than a boarding facility and it was so much better for our dog! We got regular pics and updates and our dog had a medical issue right before we left and Karla was very understanding and was able to take care of the follow-up instructions without hesitation. We appreciate her so much!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Louisville on Rover is $61.05 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 Dog 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 5,980 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Louisville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
96% of Louisville sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Louisville landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Louisville 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 Louisville.
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 Louisville 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 CO 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.
