“This was my second time using Heather’s boarding service and as Always, it was a great time to know my boy is safe and having fun with her and her dog Remi! I’ll continue to use her services anytime I’m traveling out here! She is a wonderful woman who is for sure an animal lover and a great caretaker. She sends updates and pictures of how they are all doing! If you’re looking for a sitter, look no further. She is the one to use”
“Tina was very accommodating with our dog. My dog had high anxiety while she was there and Tina was able to figure out what worked best for our dog. Will definitely use her again soon!”
“Scott and Melissa did such a great job with our dog. They were responsive and sent us updates, asked for our feedback before making decisions like going off leash, getting in the creek, etc. Their two dogs are also sweeties and our dog got along well - we were happy she had some friends to play with. We’d book with them again in the future for sure.”
“I can’t recommend Crystal enough! When my regular sitter was unexpectedly unavailable, I was nervous about leaving my fur baby with someone new, especially since I was traveling internationally for 10 days. Crystal immediately put my mind at ease. She offered a meet and greet with her and her dog, beforehand, and she was very flexible with drop/pick up times. Overall she was an amazing sitter who really went above and beyond. She treated Bailey like her own and cared for him with love. It was clear from the pics and updates she sent that my baby was happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. Also, my dog got along great with her dog and the other visiting dog. They created a little “dog pack”, the pics were sooooo cute! . If you’re looking for a sitter that you can trust wholeheartedly with your fur baby, Crystal is the one!!”
“Nissa took such wonderful care of our dogs! They had so much fun and I loved all the thoughtful updates while we were gone. I felt so much better knowing they were in great hands!”
“They were absolutely amazing with my dog, Charlie. From the moment we dropped him off, they were kind, patient, and super understanding. You can tell they genuinely care about the dogs they watch. Charlie was comfortable with them and that gave me a lot of peace of mind. They kept me updated and were very attentive to his needs. I’m really grateful for how well they treated him and I would 100% trust them again. Highly recommend!”
“Chelsea was amazing with lilo. I was worried that lilo would be too hyper for her and her family, but she didn't complain at all about her. She sent me a photo showing me she made a new friend. When lilo got home from staying the night she was worn out! I appreciate her for taking her with short notice. Her and the family were super friendly and so kind. I highly recommend her to everyone! 100/100!”
“Megan was such an awesome sitter! She was communicative, reassuring with photo updates, accommodating with our last-minute request & took such great care of our pups. Highly recommend and would book again!”
“Julie and her boys are absolutely wonderful with our dog. He’s stayed with them several times now and each time has been a great experience for us. Our dog is definitely a Velcro dog and I never thought he’d be happy with anyone else, but he’s genuinely excited when we arrive at their house which makes me very happy to see. Julie does a great job sending daily pictures which is always nice to get a visual that all is ok.”
“This was our first time using a sitter from Rover. We could not have asked for a better experience. Melody kept in contact with us, sent us pictures often and was always quick to answer our text messages. When we picked our dogs up, they were happy, clean and completely comfortable in Melody’s presence. We have already booked their next stay with her!”
“We are so thankful for the outstanding care Julie and her son provided our dog Star! Julie kept us updated daily with fun texts and pictures and gave us such peace of mind that Star was having a great time without us! :) Julie's care is genuine and devoted. They went above and beyond to treat Star! I can't say enough good things about her care and communication.”
“Elizabeth & Philip took care of our Lexi like she was one of their own. It was our first time leaving our dog under someone else’s care. They gave us peace of mind and updates on her care. We really appreciated it. They will always be our first choice in the future. Highly recommend!!!”
“We have used this sitter twice now and this is the only sitter I will send my dog to! She is very communicative and my pup has a blast over there! Just know your pet will always be safe and having fun here!”

Every sitter on Rover 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.
98% of Shepherdsville sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Shepherdsville 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 Shepherdsville 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 Shepherdsville.
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 Shepherdsville 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.
