“Maggie loves going to Joan's house whenever we are on holiday. Joan takes such wonderful care of her and keeps us updated with pictures. We never have to worry about a thing. We would highly recommend Joan to anyone and we will certainly be having her watch Maggie in the future.”
“Highly recommend Victoria and Charles. They sent us pictures of Rex showing he was very calm and relaxed and enjoying his time at their house. We loved being able to visit before we chose them to watch our little guy to see how well they all got along. Perfect! House and fenced backyard add to the safe, warm experience.”
“Elizabeth is absolutely AMAZING!!! We had a last minute change of plans and needed to board our pups over thanksgiving and she was quick to respond and accept the reservation. She not only came out to greet us, she helped me get both dogs and their things out of the car. Throughout the week she sent us constant updates of their shenanigans with both cute and funny pictures of them. I asked for a specific photo of one dog for instagram and she did a whole little photo shoot! Pretty much every day she took them to the greenway down the road for 1-2 mile walks and even helped work on their leash manners. If you need your dog boarded with someone you know you can trust, book with Elizabeth. We will be using her every time we go back to the mountains!!!”
“Couldn't ask for a better sitter or situation! From the first meeting, you can tell Viviana takes her job very seriously and knows exactly what she is doing. While we were away, she sent tons of pics and even a YouTube video of our little guy! She took care of our dog like he was her own. We will be rovering with you again, Viviana. Thanks a million!”
“What a wonderful experience! Prior to booking, Mary arranged a meet and greet to ensure we were a good fit on both ends. I was out of town for 5 days and knowing that Sage was being so well loved and cared for made traveling so much easier. I got multiple pictures and updates thru the day which puts a dog mom at ease. I would 100 percent book Mary ( and her family) again and would highly recommend you do as well. They ALL treated her as a part of their family, they have a large fenced in back yard which is reassuring if your dog does not prefer other animals. Thank you Mary, Bob, and Ava for loving my girl!”
“Always a pleasure, our dog absolutely loves to stay with Cassandra and her family! I know she is happy and well taken care of and that allows me to relax while traveling.”
“Ashley was amazing! Kept me well informed on how my little girl was doing on her first stay away from home and provided me the peace of mind in knowing I'd made the right choice. I highly recommend her and will definitely use in the future!”
“Stephanie is incredibly kind and the perfect sitter for our Boston terrier! Her home was inviting and so clean. This is the person you want watching your dog! We will use her again next time we book on Rover.”
“This was our longest boarding with Zoë and Cody and it went just as well as our other stays! They provided regular updates and pictures throughout the week and were very flexible with the pickup schedule.”
“Kristy is wonderful! I would recommend her to anyone. She treated our dog as her own; sent daily updates including pictures and videos. Daisy had such a great time I’m convinced she didn’t even want to come home! We will absolutely be using Kristy anytime we need a dog sitter!”
“Mrs. Sandra took such great care of our boy! She sent lots of updates and pictures so we knew he was doing well. She was also always very responsive. They have a wonderful set up for the pups to play safely in the yard. This was our pups first time staying away from us and he looked like he had the best time and can’t wait to go back!”
“What a pleasant experience! This was our first time boarding our cat Clovis. Devin and Delisa were the best! Clovis got the best care and I got the best feedback while away! I super recommend them and will be booking with them next time for sure! Thank you so much!”
“My dog loves this home and the people. The last time I dropped her off, she literally darted to the sitter jumping etc so she is definitely happy and taken care of well by Lanelle.”
“Sully had another great stay with Jessica, her kids, and his new best buddy Tucker! We have definitely found our ‘go to’ care provider for our Little Man when we need to be away. Thank you Jessica and Fam”
“Kelly is my number one choice for taking care of my baby. It's a no brainier for me! She always sends me the best pictures of her. She's accommodating and very kind. I'm lucky to have found her!”
“Kathy kept my mini Aussie for 4 days while I was out of town and cared for him as if he were her own! He was happy and tuckered out when I picked him up....a huge relief for me!! She is a gem and I would use her exclusively for my sweet pup!!”
“Lucas was great! He was accommodating, kind, and Mia seemed super happy to have Lucas’s dog as a friend ❤️Also had a backyard where the dogs could run in and out of the house. Thanks!”

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Louisville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Louisville on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 418 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.
93% 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 TN 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.
