“Very nice! Our pup enjoyed his stay and seemed to have a blast through all the videos and pictures we got during his stay. Will recommend them and will have them watch our pup again!”
“Ebony and her family are amazing care givers! Not only is she responsive and communicates throughout the trip, but she also followed special feeding instructions for our pup. He had so much fun at Ebony’s house, I was worried he wouldn’t want to come home!! We’ve already rebooked her for the future because we know that our Toby is well taken care of and loved while we are gone. We can’t recommend Ebony enough- she’s amazing!”
“Great sitter! Kept me updated all the time and took very well care of my pup! He was very happy and had lots of fun! Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a sitter!”
“Booking was so easy. The people who kept my Ladybug were so loving and caring, I never once worried about her. They sent photos everyday of her playing and having a great time. Thank you so much!”
“Reservé con Nelson el cuidado de mis mascotas por 7 días, realmente hizo un excelente trabajo, Kira y Linda fueron acogidas como suyas. Todos los días recibía fotos y vídeos de ambas donde se mostraban alegres. Gracias Nelson sin dudas volvería a contratarte para que cuides de mis mascotas.”
“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.”
“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!”
“Wow! That was a GREAT experience booking our dog Samson with Crystal---she went above and beyond! She sent us multiple pictures and a video, which warmed our hearts.💕 She was so friendly when we dropped him off and picked him up, and we could tell he was very comfortable there by how he acted then and how he was in the video. And the kicker was, he slept in bed with her! You know she is a dog person by that! Thanks Crystal, we will book with you next time!!!”
“Chelsea was great with the pups! Her home was wonderful with a fenced in backyard, and her family/kids were very welcoming. Great communication and flexibility in pick up and drop off times which was very helpful and appreciated!”
“Rylee is amazing. Our plans with our original dog sitter fell through last minute for our week long vacation. She was a life saver. Ladybird had a healing broken nail. She there were a ton of instructions and Rylee handled it like a champ and made us feel very comfortable. Your dog will be well loved and cared for in her home. She will definitely become our go-to for any future trips.”
“Shunita is amazing! Roady absolutely loved her the moment he saw her. She took plenty of pictures and videos and sent me plenty of updates while he was there. She will most definitely be my dog sitter from this point!”
“Michael and Elizabeth were great! They were so amazing and accommadating when my original plans changed and got moved forward. They sent me pictures of my furbaby and I know she had a great time! We will definitely be using them again in the future ❤️”
“My dog had a blast with Aspen and her family. She sent me a ton of pics and updates. It’s so relieving to not have to think about him at all while I’m out of town.”
“Beth was so patient and kind, I have never left my dog with a non-family member and she's a little codependent but Beth (and Tupac/Kiddo!) were so sweet and made her feel at home. She sent updates over the weekend and was amazing with our pickup/drop off schedule and my anxiety. Thanks so much!”
“Basil had a great time staying with Elizabeth and Phillip. The care was top notch, and I was kept up to date through texts and pics. I can always tell when Basil has a good stay experience because she comes home and is chill. Thank you!”
“I was very, very happy with Lynne. She watched my dog, Buddy for 4 days, and sent pictures and updates every day. I could tell he was happy, and I was especially glad that she has an fenced in back yard, and that she let him on the furniture and her bed, because he's spoiled! I will definitely let him stay with her again. Great experience!”

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.
