“Alfie is a happy boy after staying with Rachel. We appreciate all of her communication, even when our pup is doing embarrassing things. We love seeing him hog their bed, going swimming, and playing fetch with all the pictures Rachel provides us. We can tell he is well tuckered out, once we’re all back together as a family. Thank you Rachel for caring for animals the way you do.”
“Dana & Jason were wonderful! They were communicative, sending daily photos and updates. Our puppy loved staying with them and they are very professional. We highly recommend using them!”
“With out hesitation we rebooked our Winston & Riley Bichons with Abbie & her family in their great home environment for a week of loving care. The updates, pictures gave us comfortdaily. We have already booked our next visit with Abbie.”
“Rebecca kept me up to date daily with pictures and how Oscar was doing. This really helped. She’s flexible. Has a big backyard. And close to my house. The best part for me is Oscar was the only pet she took care of.”
“Danielle and her family couldn’t have been better to our Golden Retriever, Bowie, during his stay! They were beyond accommodating and sooo generous with their snuggles and love! Communication was amazing, and they were so kind. What more could you ask for when dropping your loved pet child off with someone (who initially is a stranger)? We will 10000% book with them again :) No question that your loved one will be in great hands!”
“Jill did an amazing job with my dog. She kept me updated and sent plenty of pictures. She took him on walks and kept him safe, and happy. I will definitely use her again.”
“I needed a place to board my dog for a night while my husband and I went to a wedding. Our dog has been to standard daycare facilities but isn't fond of being left alone so we didn't like the idea of her staying in a kennel. Alison was really accommodating and assured us that our sweet girl would get plenty of attention and play time with her own dogs, which is perfect because our girl loves to make friends. We were afraid that she'd have trouble settling in because she's very attached to us, but we were put at ease when Alison sent a picture of our girl sleeping on a comfy couch. They also made sure she had her allergy meds and food. This is exactly the environment and attention our dog needs to be comfortable being away from us for a bit. Thank you so much for watching her!”
“This was my third attempt to book with her and it finally worked out. I have a senior pup and she was accommodating and wonderful to work with. I would definitely book with her again.”
“We couldn’t be more pleased with Amy and the care that she provided for our Rosie! Amy was very responsive and gave us a run down of her home/where Rosie would be spending her time. She has a very large fenced in area with plenty of toys and space for your pet to run! She updated us throughout the stay with photos of Rosie playing with other dogs, receiving cuddles, and even on a walk! We are so glad we found Amy and will definitely book with her again. It is clear she takes care of all dogs like they are her own.”
“Michael was great! He was super responsive and helpful in answering any questions we had. He was very genuine and took great care of Summer and her specific needs at this time. Would highly recommend and will be using Michael again!”
“Oliver seemed so happy with Cathy. Her fenced in backyard gave him the opportunity to sun bathe and roll in the grass when he wanted to, play with the neighbors’ children, and watch the birds. He settled in quickly to her warm and caring personality. Cathy did a super job accommodating his picky eating habits, his dietary restrictions, and his separation anxiety. Cathy is a real gem! You won’t be disappointed!”
“Ryan continues to prove his superior work ethic! In the record breaking snowfall that occurred during their stay he provided good times outdoors and an extra night and day of care for Maverick and Goose. Thanks again, Ryan!”
“Our dog has stayed with Elisheba and her family multiple times. We greatly appreciate their care and attention. She sends us daily updates while she is with them.”
“Ronald and his family could not have been better sitters for our 2 labs. They were so thoughtful and provided a loving home for our pups while we were away. I will definitely continue to book Ronald on future trips.”

Brittany was a complete blessing! We were out of the country for a week and Brittany kept us posted with pictures and videos and updates on Jack’s daily adventures. She took the time to get to know Jack before we left and he absolutely adored her. We couldn’t have been more pleased with the experience and we will certainly call on Brittany again for our next trip!

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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 dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
96% of sitters in Ryland 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 Ryland 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 Ryland.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Ryland. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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 Ryland 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.
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.
