“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.”
“We had a great experience with Alex. He is very kind and is a dog lover. He was great with communication and drop off pickup and being flexible with our times. He let us enjoy our trip but sent a few messages and took amazing photos of our dog Chip. He was thoughtful and gave us some prints and a magnet of his photography of our cutie pup Chip. We will definitely be using Alex again. Thank you!”
“Couldn’t be happier with Delane! Responded very quickly, was extremely considerate and accommodating and most importantly my dog had an amazing time! Was super comforting knowing my pup was safe and having a great time. Could not recommend Delane more!”
“Roxy has been at Sarah's house a few times, but this was the first multiple night stay for her. Roxy was very happy both when I dropped her off and when I picked her up. Thanks to Sarah and her family, the 4-night stay worked great for my energetic puppy!”
“Irina was wonderful! Communication was excellent, she was flexible on schedules, and Otto looked so happy in all of the pictures she sent! We will definitely be booking with her again in the future, our little guy was very well taken care of.”
“We are grateful for the love and care Alexandra & Jeff plus kids gave to Arley during a long weekend stay. It's always nice to have peace of mind when traveling and we had that with them. Arley was well cared for and happy to see us -- and it was great to see a few pics of Arley doing well in their home. We will book again in the future.”
“Kimberly was great to work with! She took amazing care of our girl and sent multiple pictures everyday. She was highly responsive, too. Will definitely be using her again!”
“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.”
“Our dog had the best time staying with Meghan and Hakon! They made our time away from our pup easy with updates, photos, and genuine care for our dog. We felt confident she was in good hands!”
“We were so lucky to have Christine watch our pup while we were gone 12 days!! He was lovingly welcomed and seemed to become one of the family while we were away. We loved getting pictures and updates each day—it allowed us to rest easy and enjoy our time away without worry. He was well-exercised and well-loved everyday! Christine and her family are wonderful caregivers and I would recommend them to anyone looking for a home-away-from-home for their loved ones!”
“This was my first time boarding my pup with J.R. We originally arranged for a single night of boarding, but unfortunately, my weekend plans changed last minute and we had to extend to 3 nights. I genuinely appreciated his quick communication and willingness to accommodate. Additionally, J.R. has a fabulous property with lots of roaming room that I'm sure my pup thoroughly enjoyed.”
“Karla and her family did a great job taking care of my pup! They sent lots of photos and updates and have a big beautiful yard for your pup to run around in. My dog was so tired from the fun week of playing at their place.”
“Anthony is a dog lover through and through. He provided daily updates along with photos and videos. I’m sure Cooper loved his daily walks and the dog park too. Bottom line: I felt so comfortable leaving my Stabyhoun in such responsible hands. Thank you so much !!”
“My pup always loves his time with Misty, she is very attentive and provides great updates. Her family and pups are great friends with my dog and they get along great. My pup doesn't want to come home at the end of the stay, which I think is the best indicator that he has a great stay every time he is with Misty.”
“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.”
“Maria took such wonderful care of our Birdie while we were on vacation. It always sets our mind at ease when we know she’s in a loving home and Maria was the absolute best, sending us tons of great pictures and updates. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Our dog Allie had a wonderful time and was very comfortable for her first overnight stay. They were extremely responsive and kept us updated with pics! Will absolutely be using your services again!”
“Sam was the best pet sitter we've ever had! We left our blind/deaf older dog with them for 2 weeks, and she was so well taken care of! They made her a safe spot to relax, and I could tell they gave her tons of love. The communication was the best we've ever received, with multiple photos and videos with updates each day. They even gave her a dog toy and stitched up her bed when it tore. I wouldn't hesitate to book with any dog. Their front door is right next to lots of nice grass spaces and they have great dog parks super close for any dog to run and explore. We would definitely book Sam again!”

Heather is an outstanding Rover sitter! Her communication is excellent and I received so many great-quality photos of Harper throughout her stay. Heather and her family gave Harper so much attention and multiple walks per day, and they have a lovely home and backyard where Harper was in heaven! I will definitely reach out to Heather for more Rover stays - thank you so much Heather!
Brian was so wonderful with my boy, Ludo. He was responsive, flexible, attentive, and able to attune to Ludo's needs. He sent lots of updates and pictures and I could tell from the photos that Ludo was relaxed and having a great time. Will definitely be reaching out again when we need a sitter. Thanks, Brian!
Another wonderful stay with Irina for Otto! She was very accommodating of a last-minute request for sitting, as well as a change in pickup date. Communication is perfect as always, Otto absolutely adores Irina. If Irina is available she will ALWAYS be our first choice for Otto.
Robyn was amazing with our dogs while we were away! She was incredibly attentive and sent us regular updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our dogs clearly had a blast with her, and they loved spending time with Tony too! We felt completely comfortable knowing they were in such good hands. Highly recommend Robyn to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their pets!
Sparky had a staycation with Meghan and Hakon and had the best time with them! They treat Sparky like their own dog and I am so grateful that I could go away and feel so comfortable that Sparky is in such great care. They sent me so many pictures and videos, loved to see them all while I was away. I’m sure Sparky can’t wait to go back, I was afraid he had too much fun he wouldn’t want to come home!
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!

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 Louisville 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 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.
<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 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.

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.
