“Thank you so much Nancy! What a great experience from start to finish. Communication was wonderful, directions and facility were perfect, and our pups had a fantastic time with their 2 half days and 1 overnight stay. We especially loved how our very scared hound went right to Nancy and walked off with her like he'd known her all of his life. We highly recommend Nancy and her wide open, safe spaces. We will definitely contact her again when we are in the area!”
“Tracie sent updates, with pictures, every day, and Millie (my dog) really seemed to love it there! I was afraid she'd be depressed to be back in our boring home, but she still likes us, I guess. Tracie's daughter even drew a picture of Millie to give to me!”
“I am so fortunate to have Lynn and her family to watch my 2 girls while I am out of town. She has a beautiful clean house with a large front and back yard for the pups to go in and out as they please. She even went out of her way to add toppings to the kibble when the girls were not eating well at first. I cannot recommend Lynn and her family enough. Will continue to be a repeat customer!”
“Our pup appeared to be very content under Kirsten’s care where she had a 24 hour stay. Kirsten was a great communicator and provided pictures and texts that aided in easing the worry of leaving our sweet girl with a total stranger! Thanks for everything.”
About: I really try to make pets feel at home. I’ve cared for anxious pups and cats, and seniors, before, so I’m extra tuned in to their comfort and what helps them settle. I pay attention to the little things — their pace, their quirks, what makes them relax — and adjust to whatever they need. I’m patient, gentle, and I do my best to make every pet feel safe and comfortable while they’re with me. Because I work from home and keep a flexible schedule, pet care fits easily into my day. I am a dog-mom myself and my little one, Louie, loves having friends over! I’m able to offer regular potty breaks, play sessions, and lots of companionship. I maintain your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible — meals, walks, training cues, and downtime — so their stay feels familiar and comfortable. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, calm, and comfortable environment with plenty of room to explore. I have a large fenced‑in yard, which gives dogs space to play, sniff, and stretch their legs while staying secure. I keep a steady routine with regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and quiet rest. I follow each pet’s feeding schedule, training cues, and comfort needs so their stay feels familiar and stress‑free. Whether a dog loves active play or prefers gentle companionship, I adjust the pace to match their personality. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I maintain their normal routines exactly as you describe them. I respect your space, your rules, and your pet’s established habits. I make sure they get consistent attention, exercise, and reassurance while you’re away. My goal is always the same in any setting: help your pet feel safe, understood, and loved.
“Winnie was absolutely wonderful with Stella during the three nights we were out of town! She took such good care of her and kept us updated with pictures, which gave us great peace of mind. Her own dogs were very sweet! And then Stella decided to add a little excitement to Winnie’s stay by going through a brief “I think I’ll drink ALL the water and then puke it back up” phase. 😂 Winnie handled it like a champ, kept an eye on her, and helped Stella get through her little stomach drama. We couldn’t have asked for someone more caring, attentive, and patient. Stella was clearly in good hands, and we’re definitely looking forward to using Winnie again and her 3 pups. Hopefully, next time, Stella will skip the special-effects portion of her visit! 😂🐾❤️”
“It was such a great experience with Amber during the holidays! This was our first leaving our puppy and I'm glad it was a positive experience. Amber was very accommodating, and responsive and continued to give us updates as we requested. She made sure that all of my puppy needs were met and maintained the same schedule. Thank you Amber for taking care of Simba! 🐾”
“Julie took amazing care of my boy when I was gone on a long vacation. She even threw him a birthday party because he turned 2 while I was away! I know Remy can’t wait to stay with her again.”
“Morgan is such a sweet person, she’s quick with her response, sends pictures for updates & I can tell my little one had an amazing time. I’ll definitely be using her again🤗”
“My favorite sitter in Lexington! Couldn’t recommend her enough. She sent me videos and photos everyday, and my dog looked so happy! He got to play with other dogs, and in their fenced in yard. So so communicative and helpful. I will be using her every chance I get.”
“Clarissa took great care of our dog while we were gone for a week. She gave us plenty of updates and photos along the way and we could tell that our dog was cozy and comfortable there. We’ve used her several times as our pet sitter and will continue to do so. She’s great!”
“Haley made me feel so safe leaving my dog with a stranger. I was updated with pictures and activity through the day and it made it so relieving.”
About: I’m an experienced pet and dog lover who has been actively involved in animal rescue for 25 years. I’ve worked with dogs and cats of every type and temperament—from high-energy pups and shy rescues to senior pets and those with special needs. I currently share my home with two dogs of my own and remain very active with local animal rescue efforts. I work from home, so I’m available for boarding, daytime care, last-minute requests, and nearby potty-break drop-ins in the community. Your pets will receive plenty of enrichment throughout the day, lots of outdoor time, and a calm, consistent routine. They’ll have access to comfortable furniture, socialization opportunities (when appropriate), and engaging activities so they feel secure and stimulated while in my care. I typically accept dogs up to 40 lbs and can make exceptions for larger, well-trained dogs. I’m happy to care for multiple dogs at once when schedules and temperaments allow. As a lifelong animal lover, I genuinely enjoy the time I spend with pets and am committed to giving them the same attention, patience, and care I would want for my own. I look forward to meeting your furry family members and providing a safe, enriching experience they (and you) can trust. I work from home, so I’m available for boarding, daytime care, last-minute requests, and nearby potty-break drop-ins in the community any day of the week. As a work-from-home pet sitter, I offer flexible availability for overnight boarding, daytime care, last-minute bookings, and local potty-break drop-ins. Your pet will enjoy a calm, consistent routine filled with plenty of outdoor time and daily enrichment. I provide a secure and stimulating environment complete with cozy furniture, interactive activities, and opportunities for safe socialization when appropriate.
About: I’ve been around and cared for all different sorts of dogs since I can remember. I’ve owned a pit bull, Dalmatians, boxers, labs etc! I’m great at keeping pets happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, cuddles, and sticking to each pet’s routine. I’m responsible and attentive to every animal I care for to make sure there as comfortable as can be while being away from their owners. I’ll always treat your pets with the same care and love I’d want for my own. Im currently only working part time hours so i have plenty of availability to spend quality time with any pet I will be boarding, sitting or walking! I live in an apartment with my fiance not too far from shillito park so while I don’t have a backyard shillito park is a short walk away and one of my favorite places to go for walks.
About: I’ve always loved animals and have been passionate about keeping them happy and healthy! I love any kind of animal in any shape or size and am not intimidated by big dogs! I have lots of experience with large dogs especially since my family has always owned black labs. I am a student at UK studying Forestry and Wildlife Biology! I attend classes full time but I have full availability on weekends. I can work around my class schedule for drop-in visits and walks. I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of space to play! There are currently no other pets in my home, so no need to worry about antisocial animals feeling stressed or territorial.
“Brooke & Jason took anazing care of my sweet girl. They were very accommodating for small time changes and super quick to respond. They sent tons of pictures to ensure me that NOLA was having a great time. I look forward to booking with them again in the future 🙂”
About: Hi there! I'm so excited to meet you and your furry family members! Animals have always been my greatest passion, and I've been fortunate enough to turn that passion into a career filled with some pretty incredible experiences! With a bachelor's degree in Equine Science and a master's degree in Marine Biology and Conservation, I've dedicated much of my education and professional life to understanding, caring for, and working alongside animals of all shapes and sizes. My professional background includes working as a veterinary technician, zoological specialist at Busch Gardens, marine mammal biologist, and dolphin trainer. Throughout these roles, I've gained extensive hands-on experience in animal husbandry, behavioral observation, training, enrichment, and providing individualized care. I've had the privilege of working with animals ranging from horses and household pets to dolphins, giraffes, and other exotic species! My veterinary background has also given me valuable experience recognizing changes in animal behavior, understanding health and wellness needs, and remaining calm and attentive in situations requiring extra care. But beyond my degrees and professional experience, I'm simply someone who absolutely adores animals. I understand that pets aren't just pets—they're family. And trusting someone else with a member of your family is a big deal! Whether your pet is joining me for boarding, heading out for a walk, or enjoying a drop-in visit, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for. I understand that every animal has its own personality, routine, and needs. Whether you have an energetic pup who loves adventures, a senior dog who prefers a slower pace, or a shy pet who needs a little extra patience, I'm happy to tailor my care to what makes them happiest. You can also expect plenty of updates and pictures while your pet is in my care, because I know how reassuring it is to see that your best friend is having a wonderful time! From dolphins and giraffes to dogs and cats, caring for animals has never been just a job to me. It's what I love most! I can't wait to meet your four-legged family members! 🐾❤️ I’m currently working from home and I am a part time student getting my doctorate in animal sciences. I have fairly open availability as much of my work and school work right now is all in house. For boarding I have open availability. For walks I can do anything after 12pm. For drop ins again ai can do anything after 12pm. Pet care is the upmost importance to me, and we can customize the schedule to what your pet needs! My apartment has a dog park attached to it so we can go outside and run and play! My neighbor has a large amount of sidewalks and grass that makes for great walks and sniffing time. I have a cat in the house that adores dogs and other cats and just wants to cuddle all the time, all of her stuff is raised so dogs can’t get into it. I want your pets to be happy and feel safe so if they need a crate or need anything else specific to them let me know and we will work it out!!

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.
94% of sitters in Stamping Ground 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 Stamping Ground 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 Stamping Ground.
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 Stamping Ground 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.
