Wonderful as always. The Edge family has basically watched Derby grow up. (Godparents so to speak. lol) She always leaves happy, healthy, and sleepy. I can’t say thank you enough!

My little dog loved Katie and her family! They took excellent care of him during the Kentucky Fried Pickin event at the Holiday Inn in Owensboro. We feel very happy now that we have such a high quality place to board our dog during music events in Owensboro. We will definitely be booking with this wonderful family again!

About: Our Household includes two dogs—a German Shepherd and a Border Collie—both of whom are fully crate trained and brushed once or twice daily. Each dog has completed manners and behavioral training through Liberty K9, demonstrating consistent obedience, stable temperament, and strong social skills. Both dogs are friendly, non‑aggressive, and interact exceptionally well with children. Experienced in administering oral medications, eye drops, and specialized meals for dogs with sensitive stomachs. Their daily care routine is structured, consistent, and tailored to support their health, comfort, and behavior. As a family with a two-year-old, my husband and I rotate our schedules so that one of us is home throughout the week. Our dogs accompany us whenever we go outside to play in the backyard, ensuring they receive regular exercise and supervised outdoor time. They are brushed once or twice daily during shedding periods, and we clean their paws each time they come back inside to maintain hygiene and comfort. We have two friendly, well‑behaved dogs and a child who is almost two years old in our home. Both dogs are fully crate trained and potty trained. Our fenced‑in backyard provides a safe, spacious area where animals can run and play freely without needing a leash. We have an extra crate available if you prefer your dog to be crated, and we are equally comfortable accommodating

Dexter had a great time as always at Jordan’s place - she was even kind enough to give him a bath after he got dirty one day! Jordan also gets the best pictures, and is always sharing updates, couldn’t recommend a sitter more!

About: We have been pet owners for most of our lives. We currently have 2 cavalier King Charles dogs. We have been dog sitting for many years now and we love it. My husband and I are both retired now and have moved to Kentucky and are just starting to use the Rover platform. We stay and play not just let them out and then leave. We believe dogs get lonely too and need some extra attention when their people are away. We have a flexible schedule so we can come over as many times as you like or even spend the night with them. We also can have them come stay with us! Just ask for what you need to make sure you are comfortable knowing your pets are in great care while you can’t be there! My husband and I are both retired and love meeting new pet friends. We have owned dogs all our lives and have owned kitties in the past as well. Our animals are family member and treated as such. We have years of experience pet sitting and would love a chance to meet your fur babies We have a fenced in back yard and 2 doggies who love to play! We also have a nice neighborhood to take walks in too!! Since we are both retired we are home during the day so your babies would get loads of attention and time

Nathalie did a terrific job with our fur baby Zoey. She sent us a few pictures then everyday sent us a text on how she was doing. She even came and pick her up and then dropped her back off when we got home. We will use her again.

About: I have taken care of pets since I was young, and always had pets in my home! I am a huge huge animal lover! We currently have 3 dogs, 3 cats, 2 bearded dragons, chickens, ducks and rabbits. We love all animals! I have been a Stay at Home Mom since my girls were born. Now that they are older, I’m looking for new things to do that I enjoy, and can still be around for my family when they need me. I have a fenced in yard that the dogs run and play in, a detached garage with an attachment. Inside the attachment there is a couch, TV, AC, and heat, with plenty of room to run around and play! It makes a nice little hang out spot. We come out here to play and run around at times. There is also a security camera in the attachment as well. Dog must be potty trained, and good with other dogs and cats. Please be honest, so it won’t cause conflict while taking care of your baby and others. If we take care of larger dogs, they will stay in the attachment and not in the house.

Michelle is amazing, not only a great person and loves dogs, very down to earth, she is very responsive, gives great updates with pictures so you can see how your babies are doing. She has the sweetest little Yorkie for a playmate. She was willing to keep your exercise and feeding routine going to the best of her ability. We absolutely loved her and will be using her services again.

About: Dogs have always been part of my life, and I’ve been caring for them since I was young. I’m trustworthy and focused on keeping your pet comfortable and safe. I am unemployed so I'm free all weekdays. I do go out on weekends though, but can still care for your pet when needed. I have 2 dogs and 1 cat. They are very playful and good with other animals. I also have a house with a fenced in yard.

This is the 3rd time Marshall has stayed with Debbie. She always does a great job and sends lots of pics throughout the booking. I’m pretty sure she spoils my dog more than I do so he always gets a little vacation too! Couldn’t recommend her enough.

Our dogs' stay with Joshua was easy and they were obviously well cared for. Joshua is very responsive and communicates well. We had to change our stay and pick up times and Joshua was flexible and easy going about schedules. Joshua also listened to our concerns and specific behavior attributes of our dogs and adjusted their care accordingly. I would certainly recommend him to care for your pups!

About: I’ve been professionally pet sitting for 5 years, but grew up around dogs and cats my whole life. I’ve watched dogs of all breeds and ages and love being around animals :) I have one cat of my own named Hank 🫶🏻 I work in a law office Monday through Friday from 7:30 am to 4:30 p.m. I am single and don’t have any kids so I’m able to put all my focus on your animals :) I do not care for pets in my own home due to living in an apartment and I feel that it’s better for the animals to keep them in their own home.

Nathalie was great. She kept Willy Pete while we went on vacation and kept me updated daily with information about his day and also sent video and pictures daily. Will definitely use her again and most definitely recommend her for your next dog boarding needs and more. Thank You so much for the great experience.

FAQs for Boarding - Owensboro

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Owensboro on Rover is $33.3 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 47 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Owensboro. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Every sitter 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.

Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local 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 Owensboro 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 Owensboro.

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 Owensboro 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.
