âHope was great with my Murphy. He loved being with her and her kids and dog. Hope was great communicating updates and sending pictures. Iâll definitely keep her in mind for next time I go out of town!â

âShe is always so responsive and send lots of updates of our baby. She is a great sitter and we always appreciate the fun that he has and the love he receives while at her house!â

âAdria was a great sitter for my cranky old boy Beetle! She let us meet at her home before the booking so that Beetle could get comfortable and she could understand his needs. She communicated great, sent pictures, and was kind and helpful. I would feel comfortable booking again with her any time!â

âJessica has watched our dog so many times at this point. He loves her so much, she is so kind and the perfect dog sitter. After having a few not good ones sheâs the only one we use!â

âWe are so grateful to have found such an amazing dog sitter! This is the third time Jennifer has taken care of our dog, Coco, and every single experience has been wonderful. It gives us so much peace of mind knowing our pup is in such loving, capable hands. She is incredibly attentive, responsible, and truly treats our dog like her own. We always receive updates, pictures, and little check-ins that reassure us everything is going great. Our dog is always happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for when we return â which says everything. Itâs not easy trusting someone with your fur baby, but after three stays, we can confidently say she is dependable, caring, and absolutely fantastic. We wouldnât hesitate to book her again (and will continue to!). Highly, highly recommend! đžđâ

About: Raised in a small-town, country setting, I've been surrounded by animals my whole life. My past-times were spent caring for our farm cats, rabbits, chickens and ducks. In our home, I cared for an array of small animals such as reptiles, fish, hamsters, and of course the family dog and cat. I was a Dog Mom to an adopted Chihuahua for 10 years. I'm familiar with classic quirky Chi attitudes as well as separation anxiety. đ I'm currently a dog Mom to a 4-year-old, 11lb, Chi-Terrier-Pekingese mix, named Sam. He's a friendly, playful, and goofy pup who loves being social with other k9's. (Doggie playdate anyone)? I fully understand that our fur-babies are a part of the family, and their care is important and specific. I'd love the opportunity to care for your fur-babies as directed whether it be a drop-in potty break, a walkie, or companion visit. I'm also comfortable welcoming your loved one into my home for daycare or overnight care on weekends if they enjoy human and k9 companionship. It's their world, we're just living in it. I am available for drop-in visits and walks nearly every day. I'm available most weekends to offer daycare and overnight care in my home. I am a career nanny and care for children in their home part-time on weekdays. I enjoy fitting pet care in around my childcare hours. I am dependable, trustworthy and caring. I will follow your instructions as outlined and care for your fur babies like I do my own. I'm comfortable administrating medications or supplements I'm familiar with. I live in a one level ranch home. My husband and I will be installing a fence in our backyard soon! Your fur-baby will free roam in my home, is allowed on furniture and will be spoiled with treats and snuggles if allowed. Our dog, Sam, enjoys playing and interacting with other dogs.
âBelle and her family were the absolute best. Our dogs had the best time and we felt good about leaving them for the week. Belle had great communication and sent plenty of pictures and videos! 10/10 would recommend and we will definitely use her again in the future!â

About: What sets me apart is my hands on animal care experience and the amount of love I put into every pet I care for! đž I have experience working in animal welfare and veterinary care, fostering animals, bottle-feeding babies, administering medications, and caring for pets with different personalities and needs. From energetic puppies who need patience and consistency to senior pets who need a little extra TLC, Iâm comfortable adjusting my care to what each animal needs. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I never take that responsibility lightly.

As a pet parent myself, I understand that your pets arenât just animals, theyâre family! â¤ď¸ Animals are already a huge part of my everyday life! Between caring for my own pets, my experience in animal welfare, and pet sitting, taking care of animals is something that comes naturally to me. I plan my schedule around my responsibilities to make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, love, exercise, and care. Iâm big on keeping pets on their normal routines as much as possible so they feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. đžâ¤ď¸ I tailor my care to each petâs individual needs and their ownerâs instructions. In a clientâs home, I do my best to keep their pets on their normal routines, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medications, and plenty of affection.

About: I have years of experience taking care of dogs from neighbors, friends, and families. I love spending time with them, having fun, and making sure all dogs are taken care of! I currently work part-time which gives me more than enough time to spend with your pets and ensuring they are cared for. Iâm usually home if Iâm not at work. My yard is fenced and I usually keep my dogs in my house if they arenât playing or using the bathroom. Their food is always refilled and prepared. I can buy toys if needed
âOur first time leaving our fur baby and Jennifer was so attentive and sent us lots of pictures and updates throughout the day. Our boy had so much fun! Booking her again for our next trip â¤ď¸â

About: I have a great backyard with lots of space to run around in. Iâm able to take dogs that need time outside alone away from other dogs. As a dedicated stay-at-home dad managing our family's homeschool schedule and running a home artisan sourdough bakery, I am consistently on-site and present throughout the entire day. My daily routine allows me to seamlessly integrate hands-on pet care into our everyday rhythm, ensuring visiting dogs receive frequent check-ins, consistent supervision, and plenty of attention alongside my daily baking and family responsibilities. Because I do not commute for work, I maintain steady availability and flexible scheduling for both first-time and recurring clients, giving pet parents complete peace of mind knowing their dog is never left unattended. Welcome to our home-away-from-home for your furry family member! I am a dedicated stay-at-home dad offering a safe, affectionate, and fun environment where your dog will be treated like family. Our home features a huge, fully fenced backyard with plenty of space to run, play fetch, and burn off energy, along with a covered shelter underneath the porch for relaxing in the shade, as well as full access to come inside and lounge comfortably with us. To keep everyone safe and happy, all visiting dogs must be friendly with children, other dogs, and cats, and must be crate-trained. Please bring your dog's crate, food bowl, food, leash, and collar or harness with you at drop-off so we can maintain their normal daily routine throughout their stay.

âOmari was amazing and took the best care of my high-energy labradoodle pup for 5 days. He was the best! He sent daily pictures and videos. Would absolutely recommend him to everyone and will 100% use him again. Thanks so much, Omari!!â

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dogâs regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
97% of sitters in Oakville can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dogâs 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 dogâs 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 Oakville 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 Oakville.
Tip: You can upload your dogâs routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Oakville sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of youâand 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 Roverâs 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 Justiceâs 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 dogâs vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitterâs 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, youâre 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. Youâll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
