“Ryan and his family took such amazing care of my puppy! I knew that she was being loved on and treated like a part of the family. I couldn’t ask for a better experience for her or more piece of my mind knowing that my little girl was so well taken care of.”
“Wonderful repeat visit with Jordan and her doggies! She takes wonderful care of Arlee and I know that when I’m away, Arlee is well loved! Thank you for being Arlee’s home away from home!”
“This was the pawfect pairing. She even cares for a Mercury Angel (a Boxer that looks exactly like my boxer that passed away). She's great w/returning msgs and calls. Vrry honest character. My Luna is 6 months old and had a wonderful time w/her children and the other dogs. She'll send photos to you as well. I pickling up and she was worn completely out. It's sorta like she's played non-stop for the 4 daya Lynana kept her. She is very affordable and for doggie parents, we are very wary about leaving her with anyone so it was a nice feeling to get a warm welcome from her and her home. As I travel quite often, I really do need someone that I can totally trust Luna with. When I requested a reservation, she accommodated me as I asked to come by her home prior so we can see how Luna is in her home with her kids and the other dogs she keeps. She asks for the same thing so that was nice ro know she wanted to make sure your dog will fit in with everything. If people don't so this, I totally recommend it as I have done this prior. It alleviates a lot of over-thinking for me. Just as you do for your child going to a new daycare. By the way, I already set up dates w/Lynana for the next few months. A 5 STAR REVIEW”
“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.
About: I have always been an animal lover since I can remember. I have grown up being around dogs and have 2 of my own! I am very reliable and would take care of your furbaby like I do my own! I do have a full-time job, but I’m available before work, during lunch breaks, after work, and on weekends to care for your furry friends. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in yours, I focus on making them feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I follow any specific routines or instructions closely—from feeding schedules to favorite toys or walking routes because I know consistency is important, especially when their humans are away.

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.

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.
98% of sitters in Owensboro 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 Owensboro home-away-from-home, 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 , 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 .
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.
