“Great experience! Our dog is not regularly boarded, but Joe and his family were super patient with Nala till she got used to her home away from home for two weeks. Would definitely use them again!”

About: Hi! I’m an experienced animal caregiver with a background in doggy daycare services, veterinary medicine, and professional animal care. I worked as a veterinary technician for 3 years and as a zookeeper for 3 years, giving me experience caring for animals with a wide variety of personalities, needs, and temperaments. I’m comfortable administering medications, including oral medications and injections, and I’m attentive to changes in an animal’s behavior or health. Our home is shared by our two friendly medium-sized dogs, Allie and Eury, who are great with other pets. We also have three cats and a bearded dragon, so I’m comfortable caring for a variety of animals and managing a multi-pet household. Whether your pet needs extra patience, medication, exercise, or simply lots of attention and love while you’re away, I’ll treat them like one of our own. Monday–Sunday: I work part-time in office and work from home the remainder of the time, so I’m available any day of the week and offer boarding in our home for dogs and cats, including puppies and senior pets. We have a large, fully fenced backyard that is just under half an acre, giving dogs plenty of space for supervised outdoor time, play, and exercise. We’re happy to follow your pet’s normal household rules and routines while they’re staying with us. If your pet isn’t allowed on furniture at home, we’ll respect that! Our own dogs are allowed on the furniture, but we’ll maintain whatever boundaries you have established for your pet. We can also provide kennels if your pet is crate trained or prefers a kennel for sleeping, eating, or downtime. Because we have young children in our home, boarding pets must be comfortable around young children. I’m happy to learn about your pet’s personality, routines, quirks, and individual needs before their stay so I can help them feel comfortable and safe.

“Ana was wonderful! Very loving and caring. My furbaby became very attached to her husband as well. She also liked playing with Mia, Ana’s fur baby, which was awesome. She is usually indifferent to other animals. I would highly, highly recommend Ana. It was such a comfort knowing Ruby was being loved while we were away ❤️”

“Stephanie and her family made my 14 year old chihuahua feel so loved and welcomed during her stay. I had such a great experience from the moment I messaged her, fast responses, she let me see her house before I agreed to book, and she definitely cares for your furr baby like if it’s where one of her own. I will 100% be using Stephanie in the future and would recommend her to anyone on this app. Thank you Stephanie!”

“Very communicative, friendly, caring, and overall a great experience. They gave us updates on Maggie, how/what she was doing, and pictures. We could tell they love what they do and care about the dogs in their charge. They went out of their way to do a meet-and-greet upfront, and they care that the dogs are a good fit and will get along. Will definitely be using them regularly in the future.”

About: I have been doing drop-in pet sitting since I was 10 years old. I also worked at a Collie breeding facility for two years. I now own my own dog and have trained her and cared for her for 7 years. I have the ability to teach agility as well as basic obedience (sit, lay down, heel, roll over, etc). I am extremely active and love going on walks or runs with pets, but am happy to sit and offer belly rubs too! I am free to take care of your pet wherever and whenever you like, within reason. Unfortunately I cannot have pets at my house. Your dog's happiness and health is of the utmost importance. I am different from other sitters in that I possess extensive dog experience, patience, and an extreme love for animals. I am currently available most days to spend time with your pet. I was also a receptionist and am a vet technician at a local vet clinic and can use my knowledge in the event of an emergency. I fit it in around work and having my own dog. I typically spend a moderate amount of time with your pet, with the ability to conduct check ins as needed. I used to be a part time vet tech so I am very knowledgeable about many different clinical signs of pain or distress as well as any maladies your dog could have.

I loved that she’s also a dog mom, has a fenced backyard, and sends LOTS of updates and pictures. Can’t wait to book with her again in the very near future!!!!”

“I cannot recommend her enough! She took amazing care of Reo, and her communication was excellent. She kept me updated throughout the stay and sent me multiple pictures of how Reo was doing. I contacted her at the last minute because Reo had recently been neutered and couldn't attend daycare, and I had to go to work. She was more than willing to take care of Reo on short notice, gave him his medication, and made sure he was comfortable. Thank you so much Megan for your kindness, flexibility, and excellent care!”

“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.”

Tammy was absolutely fantastic! She sent us constant updates throughout Oliver’s stay, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. By the time we picked him up, he already looked completely at home ❤️ It was clear he was loved, well cared for, and treated like part of the family. Tammy truly went above and beyond for him, and from the moment we met her, we knew he was in great hands. We couldn’t imagine leaving Oliver with anyone else and will definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Waddy

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Waddy is $46 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $39 and $49 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 434 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Waddy. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

96% of sitters in Waddy 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 Waddy home-away-from-home, 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 Waddy.

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 Waddy 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 , 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 .

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.
