“Curtis was super helpful with our puppy Ricky. He spent plenty of time outside and was super accommodating of my partner and I’s schedule. Pick up and drop off were a breeze, going to be reaching out again!”

“Sarah is a great communicator and a very kind person. She was very sweet to our puppy and had a great space for him to play and settle down. We really appreciate Sarah, and would recommend anyone else to work with her!”


About: We'd love to get another dog but thought this might be a better option. I have worked in a veterinarian office for several years and originally wanted to be a Vet. I am comfortable with all dogs. We have a fenced yard and live near an open space. Your dog will get to play outside and go on walks and will be loved. We love to dogsit for dogs that are friendly and social, of any age or size. We are a family of 4 (2 boys aged 12 & 16). We have a small terrier dog and two cats. We have a fenced-in yard so your dog can go out as often as they like. We are excited to play and give your pup scratchies. I love to spend free time cuddling with my pets, and any guests we have. We live near open space where we regularly walk our dog, and my husband works from home so when we are available, there is always someone at home. We have a fenced yard that is secure. We also take regular walks with our dog, who is happy to have company on her adventures. We have a window bench for dogs who love to view the world.
“Tori had a great first doggie daycare day with Charissa's family. She's little, but loved playing with their big dog Akira, and they sent great pictures of her snugging and getting loved on by the kids. We'll be coming back for sure!”

“Our dogs were so happy when we picked them up at Jayne house. They seemed to have really had fun playing with Dotty, their pup, and Jayne's family. We really appreciate the good care Jayne and her family gave our dogs and we look forward to the next time.”


About: I offer a calm, uncrowded environment where your dog gets plenty of space to relax and play, thanks to my large fenced yard, pool, and easy dog-door access. As a lifelong dog owner, I’m comfortable with a wide range of temperaments and needs, from energetic puppies who benefit from consistent routines and basic training reinforcement to senior dogs who need a gentler pace and extra attention. With no other dogs currently in the home, your pet gets personalized care, close supervision, and a low-stress stay that feels like a true home away from home. I have a very flexible work schedule, work from home often. I have two dog-loving kids in this home and have been dog sitting since they were babies. Our family dog now lives at their other parents home (post-divorce) and I am not quite ready for another full time dog. I LOVE dog sitting and having canine energy around here. I have a giant fenced yard, a pool with a locking cover, and the back gate leads to 20 miles of trail. I do daily walks, sometimes 2x a day. I have a dog door that allows the dogs to go in and out freely- and also can lock off the door if there needs to be a restriction for going outside. I offer dogs to get comfy on our couch and our bed, however can also keep pets off furniture if that is what is preferred in your home. I have done kind and fear-free training with my dogs in the past to help with voice recognition and control on the leash.
“Alexander was such a wonderful sitter! He was easy to work with, communicate with, and was beyond friendly. He clearly had a nice and clean home. His dog is such a cute sweetheart! She was kind enough to allow my pup come in and relax. He was knowledgeable and very responsible, ensuring a safe environment, for all his animals:) truly 100/10 of a sitter!!!”

About: Hey! I am a lifelong animal lover who for the first time in my life am without my own resident dog. I've always had a dog in the family, since i was 1 month old, and until now have never lived without one. I've had Labrador Retrievers, Dobermans, Collies, Pitbulls- so plenty of experience with strong personality and physically strong dogs. I've raised dogs from puppies to past 16 years old- I have experience with the energy of a puppy and the patience for the elderly. Whether it's long walks, hikes, belly rubs, or just keeping them company, I make sure every pet feels safe and happy. I work from home full time, which means I'm around and available for plenty of walks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. I can easily adjust my breaks to fit your pet's routine. I am an early riser to likes to enjoy most of the daylight. After work hours I'm typically out of the house for no more than 3 hrs at a time. On weekends, i like to get outside as much as possible and would love to include your dog on my walks or hikes. While i do not have a yard, I have a large 2 car garage that can be used for play. My development has an onsite dog park that can be used if your dog is friendly and responsive in park settings. I have a spare dog crate and can crate the dog as needed when I am not home.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was old enough to walk. Friends and family often ask me to take care of their pets when they travel since I always treat them like they're my own. I currently work part-time at home and part-time away from home. I am never away from home more than a couple hours a day. My time away from home is flexible too so I am always available to care for fur babies when they need me.. I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of room for your dog to run around. I have a small female dog named Piper who will keep your pup company as well as my dog-loving kiddos and wife. We do let the doggos sleep on the bed with us but will gladly conform to whatever sleeping requirements you desire.
“Heather and her family exceeded my expectations! It was like leaving your children with family. They have such a warm and friendly environment and treat your pets as their own. Thank you so much!!”

“Riley was wonderful to work with and our puppy did very well with her. She was an excellent communicator throughout scheduling and our meet and greet. She has a very calm, patient energy that is a great match for my anxious little dog. Highly recommend and looking forward to working with her again!”


“Maxwell had the most amazing time at Kelly's. Kelly, Parker and Stephanie we're all awesome and I've never seen Maxwell so excited to go back on our second visit. The house is charming and the backyard is a doggy paradise! After both doggy daycare stays, Max was exhausted, happy and sad to leave! I will definitely be using their services again and would recommend Kelly to every person looking for a great environment for their doggo to stay at!”
About: I have over 10 years of personal experience caring for my own cat, which has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and understanding animals’ individual personalities. In addition to feline care, I’ve also looked after guinea pigs during spring break, ensuring they had a clean habitat, fresh veggies, and plenty of gentle attention. I’ve cared for dogs belonging to family friends, helping with feeding, walks, and playtime, always making sure they felt safe and loved while their owners were away.

I’m committed to providing reliable, loving care that fits smoothly into both of our routines. Why You Can Trust Me with Your Pet As a lifelong animal lover with over 10 years of experience caring for my own cat, as well as looking after dogs, guinea pigs, and a variety of other pets, I understand how important it is to feel confident in the person caring for your furry family member. Whether I’m welcoming pets into my home or caring for them in yours, I make safety, comfort, and reliability my top priorities. In Your Home: When I pet sit in your home, I respect your space and follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible. I keep things tidy, stick to feeding and walk schedules, and ensure your pet feels secure in their familiar environment. I also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and in good hands. Dog Walking: For dog walks, I always use secure leashes and harnesses and choose safe walking routes based on your dog’s size, energy level, and comfort. I take the time to build trust with each dog, making sure every walk is not just good exercise but also a positive experience. However, I own a cat who doesn’t like strangers or strange animal that come in her home With a flexible schedule and a genuine love for animals, I’m committed to giving your pet the same care and attention I’d give my own. You can trust that they’ll be safe, happy, and well cared for—whether it’s for an afternoon walk or a week-long stay.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Louisville
Brian was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Blu! He was extremely inviting with my last minute bookings and took awesome care of my pup. I could clearly tell that my dog loved being around him and the second day he spent with Brian he was not only excited when we pulled up but also visibly sad to leave him for the day. Would love to have Blu back with Brian soon! He also gave me some awesome tips for getting some of his extra energy out!

Hector and Emily are the absolute BEST! My puppy Rudy lovesssss going to their apartment and spending the day with them. They truly love and care for dogs with their entire heart. This is the best place you could send your dog (I think Rudy likes their place more than his own home now hahaha). Their dog, Lemon, is the kindest and best dog too. If you want someone to treat and love your dog like their own, send your dog to them for the highest quality of care and the best people.

Oh my gosh, Alesha is incredible! She took care of our sweet puppy like he was one of her own puppies. She sent me so many updates (which was sooo appreciated) and Otis got so much love from her children. So thankful we found Alesha as a pet sitter! Will definitely book with her again!!!

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Louisville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Louisville on Rover is $46.62 per day (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care 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 Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 4,431 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Louisville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Louisville commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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 dog, 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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 4,431 sitters in Louisville, 85% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
