“Elisheba was wonderful with my dog. She gave me daily updates on how she was doing and sent me fun pictures of the adventures they had while I was gone. I highly recommend her as a sitter for your pet as she has a true love for animals and she will welcome them into her home and take care of them as if it was her own pet.”
“Gabrielle was very responsive and took great care of our girl Cleo! Cleo was taking antibiotics at the time and she did great with giving her meds and keeping an eye on her. I love all of the photos and updates she sends!”
“Our dog had a great stay! We appreciated the thorough communication and vetting Alycia does with all dogs who stay with her. Alycia sent great photo updates throughout his stay and he got personal care and attention. Will use again!”
“I have used Abbie several times now and she takes great care of my puppy! She takes precautions to make sure all dogs get along, and I know Clara loves her time there! She is good about sending photo or video updates.”
“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!”
“We were very happy with Kim. She communicates really well and is great with dogs. We were using another sitter and we would get our dog returned a hot mess— but not with Kim. She is very kind, and caters to our dog’s needs and preferences to make their stay very easy and comfortable.”
“Katie did such a great job watching Reggie while my husband and I were out of town for a few days! We received plenty of updates and could tell he was well taken care of when we picked him up. Will definitely be using Katie again!”

“Cori always takes excellent care of our dogs, and we really appreciate the opprtunity to leave them in the care of her and her family. Her flexibility in allowing us to pick up and drop off at night was especially helpful for our travel plans.”
“Patricia was incredible with our baby. She has great communication throughout the stay and it was obvious that our pup was happy and safe with her. We will definitely be using Patricia again!”
“Karen was GREAT with our golden retriever Max and I would totally work with her again! Our family went were away for a week and wanted to leave Max at a house so he’d have 1:1 care instead of boarding, We hadn’t met Karen previously but from the first minute we talked with her it was obvious she was a dog person and Max would be in great hands! Thanks Karen!!!”
“Percy was well cared for and greatly enjoyed his stay with Deana and her husband! We are so glad we found them. They went above and beyond to care for my dog and make him happy.”
“Tricia was flexible, kind, and patient with our dog. Her kids were calm and not afraid to play with a big dog. She sent us updates and pictures along the way. We will be going back to Tricia again for services for our dog!”
About: What makes me a good pet sitter is that I treat every pet like they are part of my own family. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, routine, and individual needs, so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m patient, dependable, attentive, and I give every pet plenty of care and one-on-one attention. My goal is not just to watch your pet, but to make sure they feel happy, secure, and cared for every day. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel happy, safe, and cared for. I make time each day for feeding, walks, playtime, attention, and keeping their space clean. I’m organized with my schedule, so I can provide consistent and dependable care while giving each pet the individual attention they deserve. I have a fenced-in yard and two friendly dogs who can provide company for your fur baby if they are comfortable around other dogs. I can easily crate your dog if needed and will follow their normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of love and attention. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in my home or in my client’s home, and I’m happy to follow any special instructions or routines your pet may have.
“This was a very last minute booking and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Rob was extremely flexible with drop off and pickup time. Responded right away to my messages and sent updates. Will absolutely book again the next time we are in Cincinnati. Thank you for a great stay!!”
“Jessica was absolutely the best pet sitter! She was so sweet and really loves animals! She has the best setup for watching them in her home! She had a nice area for my cat to be separate if he chose to from her pets - but her pets were awesome also! I highly recommend her to everyone! I had been super anxious and worried about leaving my kitty, but my mind was at ease and I could relax on vaca because I knew my kitty was being extremely well taken care of! She also sent daily pics and notes, which was so great! Thank you so much Jessica!”
About: I have had many animals in my life including dogs, cats, horses, sheep and goats. I am currently accepting a limited number of dogs for daycare or boarding and at my home with fenced yard. I have a four year old Mini Aussie ready to play and entertain your fur baby. All dogs must be house broken and socialize well with other dogs and people. I am available 7 days a week. Dogs must be crate trained (for overnight), house broken, have current immunization records and complete a short temperament assessment. I have a three dog limit, including my dog. Any dog’s acceptance into or rejection from my care is solely at my discretion. I have a fenced yard and plenty of toys to keep things exciting. My home is dog friendly and crates are available for short term or overnight use. Dogs will be crated at night for boarding.
The median cost per night for pet boarding in Southgate is $40
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Southgate
I am absolutely thrilled with the care and attention my dog received while staying with Jenny. The big yard was a dream come true for my dog! But what truly made the experience stand out was the personal attention and love my dog received from her. The homemade treats were a wonderful touch, and it's clear that Jenny went above and beyond to make my dog feel welcome and comfortable! What really says it all is that my dog didn't want to leave when it was time to go home - that's the highest praise I can think of! Jenny has a clear passion for pets and a gift for providing top-notch care! Thank you!!
Kamilah was AMAZING! Wanted to know every quirk about my pup and took the time and energy to remember. Treated my girl like a princess and they had so many walks and adventures together and sent a lot of photos and videos. Kam made my pup feel so at home. She is the best sitter!
Susie was wonderful! She took great care of Maggie, made sure she got plenty of walks, and kept us updated throughout her stay with lots of pictures. It was so nice knowing Maggie was happy and well cared for while we were away. Susie was also incredibly friendly, responsive, and loved our dog. We would absolutely recommend her and would happily have her watch Maggie again!

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
