“Jessica is the best! She took good care of my dog last minute and kept me updated throughout. Very professional. The drop-off and pick-up process was smooth too. Would highly recommend!”
“Adria 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!”
“Leah provided so many updates and details that it was as if I hadn’t even left my sweet Daisy behind. Leah & Wes and “the girls” welcomed Daisy with open arms and paws! I’m so glad we found this wonderful family to look after Daisy when we are away. Daisy came home happy and I know when we use Leah & Wes again she will be well taken care of!!”
“Leslie was amazing! I was kept up to date with how olive was doing the entire time (2 nights.) Leslie sent me photos of olive both days so I was never wondering how she was doing. Olive was treated sooo well and I know she felt at home! Definitely using Leslie for any trips we take in the future.”
“Eric and June were great with Bandit. June sent frequent updates, with pictures of Bandit being a snuggle bug. Seems like Bandit was very happy with his stay.”
“Maria did an excellent job watching my pup for 5 days, she constantly sent updates with pictures to show that he was truly being cared for. I am a traveling nurse and was in need of a sitter on short notice and she responded quickly and gave did an amazing job. Would surely recommend and /or use again in the future.”
“We were absolutely delighted with the services provided by Rover pet sitter Jessica. She was not only accommodating but also incredibly understanding when our flight was delayed, and we needed to adjust the time frames for our pet's care. Jessica and her husband's professionalism and flexibility made a significant difference for us during a stressful travel situation. Their dedication to our pet's well-being was evident, and we felt confident in her care. We would wholeheartedly recommend Jessica to others in need of pet-sitting services. Her commitment to her clients and their furry friends is truly commendable. Thank you both, for making our trip worry-free!”

About: I already have two great dogs! A yorkie(4yrs old) and pitbull(8-9yrs old), I have a great backyard with lots of space to run around in. I’m 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.
“Omari 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!!”
About: I have experience with all types of animals including cats, dogs, birds, and more. I have been pet sitting for 8 years for neighbors and friends. I currently work 6 am- 2 pm but my hours are somewhat flexible so I may be available for morning if needed. Afternoons and evenings preferred I am unable to accommodate pets in my home unless they are kept in an enclosure. During home visits I typically adhere to instructions by the owner and always enjoy bonding with pets that I visit on a frequent basis.
About: I have work experience as a veterinary assistant at two vet clinics. I have experience working with all types of animals such as dog, cats, rabbits and birds. Before working at vet clinics, I used to house sit for neighbors and family. I am a stay at home mom with my 8 month old son. My schedule is very flexible to be able to take care of your pet's needs. I will make sure the pets gets plenty of love and company with play time and feedings. If a pet requires medicine, I am able to follow their schedule. If they require any injections, I can do that as well.
About: Hi! I have been a dog owner my whole life. I have adopted five dogs in my adult life, and I've been through training with them. Therefore, I understand what helps a dog stay calm and feel safe! I also have experience with a variety of leashes, and understand the importance of routine. I have experience with both indoor and outdoor dogs, and I worked as a vet tech for two years. I am often asked to pet sit for family and friends, and I would treat your furry loved one as my own! I offer walks in the morning and afternoon, with additional breaks in the evening and before bed. I have playful dogs at my home that love to wrestle, but have been trained to keep their distance if needed! I have space in my home to both allow pets to mingle or stay separated as needed.

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 dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
97% of sitters in Olmstead can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s 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 dog’s 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 Olmstead 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 Olmstead.
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 Olmstead 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.

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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll 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.
