“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.”
“Lynn and John are absolutely wonderful!!! They took amazing care of Chase and sent us many updates, photos, and videos! It was obvious that they loved him as much as we do and they made him part of their family from day one. If you need a loving place for your furry friend while you are away, please don't look any further...Lynn and John are the best! We will definitely be leaving Chase with Lynn and John whenever he needs a home away from home!! They serve 10,000 stars!”
“Kelly was incredible! She even sent me pictures of Charlie while she was looking after him. She really calmed me down about leaving him at a new place, because after talking with her for 5 minutes, you realize how much she truly cares about what she does, and for the animals she looks after. Quite frankly, I'd stay there if I could; her backyard was gorgeous and allowed for the pups to play and run together in a safe environment. If I ever need anyone again, she's the only one I'll call!”
“Cindy was wonderful with our dog! Knowing he was in good hands helped us enjoy our trip even more. From the daily photos it was obvious he was doing well- going on walks, getting rest, and fitting in well with her family and 2 other dogs. The first snow of the season happened while we were gone- and Cindy was so thoughtful- she put a warm sweater on our dog during the cold walks. Her level of care was amazing and much appreciated! I'm so grateful to Cindy for giving our pup a loving home while we were away!”
“Heather struck us as being extremely responsible and caring. She took great care of our dogs and treated them like part of her family. Good communication when we had any questions or concerns.”
“Our dog had a great time at Kimberly. We received a lot of updates and photos. It was our first time using a dog sitter and Kimberly made the experience seamless. She was also very flexible with the drop off and pick up. We will definitely come back ;-)”
“Michelle was amazing and Lucy assuredly had a great time with Michelle and her family. Michelle was super professional, responsive, and all around the best sitter one could entrust with their pets! Particularly, Lucy had an unexpected medical episode during Lucy's stay, which Michelle quickly identified, kept me in contact, and took Lucy to the vet on my behalf while I was out of the country to make sure Lucy was okay. Michelle's professionalism and attention to animals in her care is top notch, and while an unexpected medical incident is any pet owner's worst nightmare when traveling, Michelle put me at ease that Lucy would be well taken care of after Lucy's vet visit. Highest recommendations!”
“Lilly is excellent! She was so good with noodle and made her feel comfortable and secure. Lilly is so sweet and has a calming presence. She sent me the best updates daily. It was great knowing noodle was having fun over Christmas while I was away! Would highly recommend!”
“Ryan and Lorien were wonderful with our Charlie dog. Their sweet dog even shared their toy with him. Charlie was given lots of love and attention. We felt at ease having him there while on our vacation. Would definitely book with them again. Thanks!”
“Dillon looked to have a great time with all of the other dogs and definitely came home worn out. Plenty of photos were provided and a report card given after his stay. Allowed me to understand how he did with Leah and the other pets. Will be favoriting this mother-daughter team for future stays.”
“Jessica stayed in communication and gave us several photos of Ace. She took him on walks. She was flexible when our return flight was delayed. We worked definitely book with her again.”
“Juan did an amazing job caring for my dog for two nights. From the start, communication was clear, timely, and reassuring, which immediately made me feel comfortable leaving my pup in his care. He followed all instructions carefully and made sure my dog’s routine stayed consistent, including feeding, walks, and playtime. I especially appreciated the updates and photos he sent, which showed my dog relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for. It was obvious he treated my dog like his own and paid attention to the little details that matter. When I picked my dog up, he was calm, well-exercised, and in great spirits. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Juan again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter.”
“Ashley and Jeremy were very easy to communicate with and took my girl very last minute! Life savers. Savannah seemed like she had a great time. Will be booking again!”
About: I've had my own dog for three years, and the best feeling in the world is leaving for a trip knowing she's completely taken care of. That's exactly the experience I want to give you and your pup, I treat every dog I watch like my own. I have experience with reactive dogs and understand that every dog has their own personality, quirks, and needs. I'll take the time to learn what makes yours comfortable and happy, so you can actually relax while you're away. I work full time so my schedule is great for post-work walks and weekend care. Walking is a part of my daily life and I would love to bring your pet along. I aim to keep things as normal and comfy as possible for pets. I follow their usual routine for walks, meals, and playtime, and give them plenty of love and attention so they feel happy while you’re away. I also make sure your home is treated with respect so you come back to a relaxed pet and a tidy space.
“Laura is a great sitter that gave us full confidence while we were away for an extended trip. Even when Toby got stomach troubles she was very proactive in calling his vet and conservative in his recovery food, which assured us he was in good hands. Would recommend and definitely use again!”
“Thank you so much Havi for loving on our boy while we were gone! I always have a really hard time leaving Koda to go out of town, but I had nothing to worry about with Havilah. She really took care of Koda like he was her own. Thank you so much for all the photos, videos, giving Koda pills, all the exercise, and love. 💗💗💗”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Louisville
We are so lucky to have Sarah! I have the utmost trust in her care and can't give her a high enough recommendation. Great communicator, very experienced, and every interaction has been a positive one. It gives me such a peace of mind to know that my pet is in such great hands when I'm away. Without hesitation, Sarah is a star sitter!!
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!
Rachael was so great with my senior pup! She administered his medicine on time daily, and listened to his needs regarding exercise in the heat. Her dog Tiger got along great with my dog, even though Dutch kept trying to take over all of the sleeping places. Rachael was super communicative, she sent lots of pictures, and demonstrated that she had taken the time to read thru and understand all of my pup’s care instructions. I would trust Rachael to watch Dutch again!
Once again Allie came home happy from her adventures with Moriah and Luke. Although this was a longer than normal stay for Allie, she looked very comfortable and content in the pictures I received from Moriah. I love that I am updated often, which puts my mind at ease while I’m away.
We couldn't have asked for a better experience. From the moment we met Alex and her family, it was clear they genuinely love dogs. They welcomed our dog, Gilmour, into their home and treated him like a member of their own family, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Communication was excellent throughout the booking and stay. We received the perfect balance of check-ins that reassured he was being good and nothing for us to worry about. Alex and her family are incredibly capable, trusting, and have a happy home. Our Gilmour loved the amount of attention and play time he got, he was clearly spoiled! Highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and dependable sitter. We are so grateful and will absolutely book with them again, if they'll have us!

There are 6,188 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Louisville. About 90% of Louisville 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.

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 CO 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.
