“Heather is amazing! We went on a two week vacation and knowing our little bubby was having a great time and being well taken care of made it so much easier and removed the guilt of not being able to take him with us. Thanks so much Heather!”
“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!”
“My maltese, Lily, stayed with Julie and her son. They were wonderful in every way! She sent me daily texts and cared for her like she would her own. Excellent experience! Highly recommend!!!!”
“My dogs spent 3 days with Crystal, they were safe and healthy and well cared for! She provided regular updates and worked with me when my flight was delayed so I had to pick up later than expected. Will definitely use her again.”
“Dailyn went above and beyond for our two dogs! It was our first time ever leaving them and she made us feel so comfortable. All of the pictures and videos let us know that she was loving our babies just as we would!”
“Beth is excellent with my dog Deuce. So well cared for. He doesn't even act like he missed me. And her 4 year old son is a great help also! That is a total difference compared to leaving him at a high price dog hotel. Highly recommend her!”
“Tina and her husband were great with my dog Baxter. She was attentive to his nervous personality and worked with him until he warmed up to her. I don’t know if they would welcome Baxter back, but I wouldn’t hesitate to leave him in their care again. Their facility seemed nice and clean. Would recommend”
“Lynne made us very comfortable right from the start. She made sure to keep in contact, even before we had a meet and greet, and when we met her she made us and our baby girl, Izzy, feel completely at ease. When we were gone on our vacation for 12 day's, Lynne sent pictures and updates letting us know how things were going. She completely spoiled our girl and made her feel loved. We would go back to Lynne in a heartbeat!”
“Rachel and Frank were WONDERFUL!! My Boston Terrier Sadie was treated like a family member of theirs. When I picked her up she was completely happy and healthy and they sent me updates and pics of her daily. I couldn’t have asked for a better home for her to be at and we feel blessed to have found them.”
“Miss Lea was awesome! She took great care of Raider and sent videos and pictures everyday! When we picked Raider up she sent him home with a cute little goodie bag! We will definitely be repeat customers! Again thanks so much Miss Lea! :)”
“Amanda was amazing with our 4 year old Vizsla. She treated her like a queen and helped our anxious dog feel right at home. I will definitely use Amanda again and can’t recommend her enough.”
“This woman is freaking amazing. When she take control over your the dog instantly becomes part of her family as well. She keep you updated on your dog with pictures. In the dog truly have a blast with her. I’ll give Melody a 10 out of 10 will recommend.”
“I think the best review comes from our dog, Sirius. When we get to their house he runs to the front door, dragging us behind. Alexis and Daniel have the Sirius seal of approval! We're also happy because we know he's being well taken care of while we're away.”
“I am so glad I found Dan. She took amazing care of our dog in her home while we were on vacation. I was so relieved to know he was getting the same amount (if not more haha!) of attention, love, and activity as we give him. She took him on long walks, played with him at the park, gave him extra treats, and even bathed him when he got a little dirty playing outside. Dan sent us plenty of photos and videos while we were gone. I will use Dan any time we are out of town again and I couldn't recommend her enough!”
“She did an amazing job and kept in contact with me throughout the weekend, Sent plenty of photos and even taught him a new trick. Will definitely be asking her to watch him again.”
“I just returned from a two week trip and couldn't be any happier knowing Isaac took such great care of my dog (Stubby). Isaac took care of Stubby like he was his own. Stubby is normally very hard to acclimate to new people and environment but he did so very quickly at Isaac's. Wonderful place and beautiful surroundings. Isaac kept me constantly updated with pictures and video's on the daily. Stubby also had two amazing dogs to play with Bella and Peanut. I enjoyed all the video's and pictures Issac sent me of their walks and out in the backyard having fun. You can tell the passion he has for caring for animals. I also had been very behind in giving Stubby a bath because of working and tending to sick family member. But Isaac even gave Stubby a bath for me which I appreciated very much. I would highly recommend Isaac to anyone who is looking for wonderful caretaker and environment for their furry family member. I will be using Isaac again in the future.”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Thixton
Julie is the absolute best when it comes to pet care! This was our second time leaving our pup with her for at least 10 days, and both times we’ve been completely blown away and impressed by her dedication and love for our dog. Knowing our fur baby is in such safe, caring hands gives us total peace of mind while we're away. We highly recommend Julie and will continue to use her any time we have to be away from our pup.
They did a wonderful job!! They really put my mind at ease. I was so grateful that they reassured me when I was worried about the flight delay. They also firmly reassured me and eased my anxiety about my senior dog, allowing me to have a wonderful vacation. And I loved their very clean environment where my dog was staying. I am grateful to have met such wonderful people after moving to this new place, and I feel like going on vacation in the future will be a source of joy rather than worry from now on. I highly recommend Rachel & Frank.
They were both fantastic, extremely accommodating, and very transparent. Our dog Molly is what I would consider a handful and a half, yet they both went above and beyond in making her feel welcome. There was tons of pictures of her on tons of walks, playing in their beautiful home/yard, and cuddling. She was well cared for every minute she spent with them. They will care for yours as if they are their own.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Thixton 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 Thixton.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Thixton 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.
