“We could not have asked for a better experience! Alexis & Daniel were so welcoming! Their home (inside & out) is perfect for dogs- multiple or otherwise. They were easy to work with even accommodating a last minute reservation, had great communication and shared photos. We will 10000% use them again!”
“Stephen and Angela were great! They were great with communication and setting up our dog's stay. We have an older dog who gets anxious at typical boarding facilities but she came home happy, tired, and well cared for. We will definitely use them again next time she needs to stay somewhere!”
“Dan was amazing. She provided a lot of pictures and videos. My dog had a great time with her and her kids. We will definitely be booking with her for our future trips!”
“We were first time Rover users and Beth was super accommodating and patient with our many questions. Her little dog Tupac got along well with our dog, helping with the transition. Beth does a great job of communicating. She sent daily updates and photos so that we could see how Josie was doing. Beth is very good. Highly recommend.”
“Bill was amazing watching our hound, who can be anxious. He had great communication and sent plenty of pics throughout her stay. She seemed very relaxed when we picked her up! Will be using his services again.”
“Jared and Waverly were nothing short of fantastic! We left our pup Charlie with them for the long weekend and they were able to accommodate his high energy needs and goofy personality. They gave timely updates with pictures and took great care of Charlie. Pick up and drop off were a breeze. We greatly appreciate their services and will be sure to call them next time we need a dog sitter!”
“Carla was absolutely amazing! My husband and I left for a long weekend and she took on two high-energy dogs with no problem at all. She kept us updated each day with pictures and my dogs enjoyed her spacious backyard! I would highly recommend Carla and I would absolutely have her watch my dogs again!”
“What a fantastic experience! Rocky was taken care of really well. He had tons of fun with Chris, his kids and his dog Luna. Rocky was so ha[[y there, now he is bored home :). Several times a day Chris was sending me pictures and videos of Rocky playing, eating, sleeping, swimming in the pool, etc. That was the first time I ever left Rocky with somebody else. I was nervous at first, but Chris made it very easy for us from the moment we met throughout the whole week. Highly recommend!”
About: Hello! You can call me Wendy. I’m a tenured physics professor and a lifelong animal lover. I currently have three cats of my own and many years of experience caring for both cats and dogs. I have experience caring for senior pets and understand the importance of routines, medication schedules, and paying close attention to changes in behavior and health. I’m patient, reliable, detail-oriented, and committed to making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their family is away. For pets boarding in my home, I understand that some pets may be more comfortable having their own space. If you prefer, I can keep my three cats completely separate from your pet for the entire stay, so your pet can relax in a safe, quiet environment. As a professor, I bring professionalism, responsibility, and strong communication to every pet-sitting job. My schedule is especially flexible during evenings, weekends, holidays, and university breaks. Whether you need house sitting, drop-in visits, dog walking, feeding, litter box cleaning, or care for senior pets, I will treat your pets and home with the same care and respect I give my own.
“Lillian can be a bit shy initially but took to Jessica's family and home in a flash. Shortly after dropping her off her husband and son took her on a walk to keep her engaged. I ended up having flight issues on my return and Jessica + family were so understanding and flexible. Lillian was happy and incredibly well taken care of. I appreciate Jessica's entire family opening up their home and loving on my girl while I had to be gone.”
“This is my 3rd or 4th time utilizing Amanda’s services and she was excellent, as usual. Mr Bentley loves her and her dogs. I feel very comfortable and at ease whenever I am traveling. I will book her again.”
“Great sitter! Kept me updated all the time and took very well care of my pup! He was very happy and had lots of fun! Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a sitter!”
“Angela is the best of the best! Super easy to coordinate with, she took so many pictures of Yeti while I was out of town—it looked like he had an absolute blast. Cannot recommend Angela enough!”
“Sarah and Daniel (and their wonderful family) did an amazing job with our boys! They sent many updates and pictures! We can tell that the boys had a great time and we would happily bring them back to Sarah and Daniel. We highly recommend them!”
“Nissa took such wonderful care of our dogs! They had so much fun and I loved all the thoughtful updates while we were gone. I felt so much better knowing they were in great hands!”
“Sharon is absolutely amazing! My boy is a very anxious boy and has severe separation anxiety. Sharon had him so comfortable and settled almost immediately. I am so grateful to her for the care and love she gave Salem while I was out of the country for two weeks. Sharon provided me multiple daily updates complete with adorable videos of Salem. Her dog, Wes, was the perfect buddy for Salem too! Her fenced-in yard is fantastic for doggies to sniff and play in. I was so nervous to leave my boy for so long, but having Sharon as his sitter truly made all my worries disappear. She was also incredibly flexible and understanding when I had a flight delay. I cannot recommend Sharon (and Wesley!) enough!!”
“I felt so comfortable knowing that Megan was caring for my girls while we were on vacation! We even had some cute pics to enjoy showing that they were having a great time.”
“Meg and her family loved and cared for our pups just like they were their own. She sent at least one picture everyday. Her dog, Bubba, was a great friend to our dogs. We will definitely be using their services again!”
“Collin is the best! Whenever I’m in KY he’s my go-to go for dog sitting. My Yorkie loves playing with his, he is very great at communicating and sending pics throughout the day. Highly recommend!”
“Patrick was great! Prompt communication and plenty of picture updates on Guthrie, who looked to be having the time of his life. I swear Guthrie was positively beaming when I picked him up! The afterglow remains several days after.”

Jared and Waverly were great sitters. Our dog had the best time with them and Hill Topper. And I can’t say enough great things about the amount of communication that they displayed from the meet and greet until final pickup, really puts your mind at ease about how our girl was taken care of.
Kelsey took amazing care of my dog, Katai, while I was away. From the moment we met, I could tell she genuinely loves animals, and that gave me so much peace of mind. She kept me updated with messages and photos, and Katai looked happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. When I picked him up, he was relaxed, healthy, and clearly had been treated like family. It’s not easy trusting someone with your dog, but Kelsey exceeded every expectation. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable, caring, and attentive. Thank you, Kelsey, for taking such great care of Katai—I wouldn’t hesitate to book with you again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Middletown on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 454 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Middletown. 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.
98% of Middletown 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 Middletown 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 Middletown 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 Middletown.
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 Middletown 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 KY 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.
