“Rebecca was wonderful with Fiona! She kept us updated with photos and messages, took great care of her, and made sure she was comfortable and happy. We really appreciated her kindness and attention to detail. We would definitely recommend her and book with her again! ❤️”
“Patricia truly loves dogs and takes pride in caring for them as if they are her own. Our Winnie girl had a peaceful stay. We will be sending her back to stay again!”
“Hayley was fantastic! Setting up a meet and greet was incredibly easy, and she was so accommodating and friendly right off the bat. She has a very calm, friendly, and grounding presence that our dog took to immediately. Everything went perfectly while we were away, and she was excellent at communicating, sending photos, and she followed all of our routines perfectly. It gave us so much peace of mind to know our Stanley was in such good hands. We would definitely book with Hayley again without hesitation!”
“My dog was shown around the home as if he was the "person" staying with her! He was much calmer and had a wagging tale while being toured. He would start shaking and whimpering, when we would drive up to the kennel were using. She sent pictures of him playing and running outside and one sleeping peacefully. We are super excited to have found Rover and Karen!!!! He lost weight last stay at the kennel, this stay with Karen he came back better than we left him. He was happy, energetic, and was the same weight as when we dropped him off at her home. Our dog is a people person and he loved his new people. We were able to fully relax while away and not worry about him. Thanks so very much!”
“Finn left Holly’s worn out and with a new best friend! Getting pictures of Finn and Millie together made us feel so happy knowing he was having a good time while we were away. We will definitely be using Holly again!”
“Monte did a wonderful job keeping tabs on my pup! He was kind and welcoming with the introductions, as well as his furry companion. Definitely will be contacting Monte again in the future.”
“Kim was absolutely the best!! She took such good care of my girl! My Kaycee is a bit timid and scares easily and Kim took her time letting Kaycee get comfortable and gave her extra loving! I was able to go to my work convention and relax knowing Kaycee was in such good hands!!”
“Jessica is great! My old dog is a bit needy and she was so sweet, meeting him where he’s at and not complaining about giving him extra attention. My kids and I all loved that she sent daily updates with photos. We will definitely check in with Jessica next time we need a sitter!”
“Metricia & her family for a joy to work with! Minnie loved her time & got plenty of walks, cuddles & treats! Metricia was very flexible when I had to drop her off one hour later and pick her up one hour later! I would totally book her again!”
“I wanted to sincerely thank Amanda and Donnie for the outstanding care you gave Blue during his stay with you :) Meeting them beforehand eased my worries, and their consistent updates and photos reassured me that Blue was happy and well looked after. As a Great Dane owner, finding trustworthy caregivers is invaluable, and their kindness and attention meant so much. I’ll definitely reach out to them again whenever Blue needs a place to stay. Thank you for making Blue feel so welcome.”
“Erica went above and beyond to help keep my sweet boy comfy while I was out of town. She was very welcoming, sent daily updates and communicative. I felt very comfortable having him stay with her and would absolutely trust her to watch him again. I can’t recommend her enough!”
“Our puppy Onyx had the best time with Meghan and her sweet family! Onyx lived having a fellow Chihuahua to play with throughout his stay. Meghan provided updates daily and sent photos which was so appreciated. Meghan also made sure Onyx took his medication twice a day. We are so grateful for all the love and snuggles that Meghan and her family gave to Onyx. Thank you!!”
“Maddie was so great! I needed someone last minute and she was quick to respond and so nice. This was my first time using Rover and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I got regular pictures and updates, and though I was worried my dog would be anxious it was clear she was having a great time. I’ll definitely be booking with Maddie again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Richwood
Rebecca did an excellent job taking care of our two old dachshunds for five days. Her property is very nice and has a large, fence yard, so they had plenty of space. She administered their food and medications well and sent us daily updates with pictures. We highly recommend her!
Tammi is a true professional. This was my first experience with Rover, or any dog sitting experience. She took my two dogs on short notice, worked with my schedule even when I was late. I was unsure if my dogs would be okay with her other dogs. Tammi knew exactly what to do. She integrated them into the pack and sent me multiple pictures of their progress. I KNOW my girls were well taken care of with Tammi. They were happy and healthy when I picked them up. They even followed her in her garage while I was standing there! 🥰 If you are unsure of if this company will work for you, try Tammi. You will be glad you did!
Emily and her family were wonderful! Communication before and during our stay was excellent. We received multiple messages throughout the week along with pictures of our dog! Emily and her husband genuinely care about animals, highly recommend and will 1000% use her again for any pet sitting needs!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Richwood 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 Richwood.
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 Richwood 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.
