“Heather was the best! She sent me so many pictures and videos which made me feel assured that Charlie was well taken care of. And her dog, Remi, is so cute and sweet and playful.”
“Sharon took very good care of my dog Bear for the week I was gone and Wesley was a great friend for her as well. She is very understanding and flexible when I got delayed due to a snowstorm. I can’t recommend her enough as someone who will take care of your fur babies as her own and leave you with no worries!”
“Crystal was Absolutely Amazing with our Geddy Lee!!! We were nervous about leaving him because he is still a puppy but Crystal and her entire family treated Geddy like one of their own!!! Geddy was able to run around and play with her dog in their fenced in back yard as much as he wanted!!! We received several pictures and/or videos with comments daily!!! Crystal was very informative and answered any questions we may have had about how Geddy was doing anytime we asked!!! My Husband and I went on vacation but in our opinion so did Geddy!!! We would not hesitate to book with Crystal again in the future hoping that she will be able to watch him again!!!!”
“BROOKE YOU ARE AMAZING!!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I appreciate your pet-sitting services for my dog, Layla. Having used Rover many times before meeting you, I can honestly say you have been the best sitter I've had. I especially appreciate the regular updates with pictures and information about what Layla is doing. It really puts my mind at ease while I'm away. You're the best, and I will definitely recommend your services to others. I will also be using you again in the future. Thank you again for everything! Sincerely, Timothy”
“Sarah and Dan did an amazing job taking care of our fur baby! I loved the fact that they gave us daily updates and pictures without us asking. I always feel like Im bothering the sitter if I ask for updates so I really appreciated all the updates! Loki seemed to really enjoy his stay with Sarah and Dan and we will definitely be using them in the future and recommending them to everyone.”
“I give Stephen and Angela 5 stars. They were very accommodating and answered all my questions. Since I was new to Rover I was worried about leaving my dog with someone I didn’t know but they made me feel comfortable. I would definitely use them again”
“Jessica is amazing. When I picked Zeus up, all he wanted to do was sleep. It wasn't till the next day that he had any energy. I will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Jacqueline was amazing with Ella. She sends lots of pictures and updates and picked up on when Ella needed some space by herself to decompress. I would recommend Jacqueline to others!”
About: I have many years of caring for my own cats (Jack & Jill growing up, and my foster cat Bucky now) as well as lots of experience dog-walking and home-sitting throughout college. I absolutely love making new friends with your pets and am happy to provide them less time alone or in their kennels I still have full-time work to accommodate (from 9am-3:30pm), but I work remote and am able to be flexible. I am available most evenings and weekends. Unfortunately my apartment makes me unavailable to provide care for pets away from your home. I look forward to caring for your pets in your yards, neighborhoods, or local dog parks however. I don't object to taking pets for a car ride if they enjoy those as well
“We’ve used Julie twice now and she is nothing short of amazing. Our little girl loves it there and I know she is well taken care of. Julie is super easy to communicate with and very responsive! If you are looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter, book her now!”
“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.”
“Bennae was very accommodating and kind. Chico returned home with the same mannerisms he left with. I will definitely be using Bennae again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter. Great experience”
“Daniela was amazing! I trust her with my babies! She is great with communicating, she is fast with responding as well. She sent lots of pictures and videos throughout their stay. She was so accommodating to my needs. I will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Shane didnt have a problem with my overwhelmingly energetic dog. Seems like he can handle anything. Was able to book my dog the next day and the day after when I couldnt get my dog in time, thanks!”
“Dailyn was wonderful with our puppy Gixxer. She was very responsive when we asked how he was doing. We paid extra to have him groomed and he came out to us smelling good and looking shiny and clean! We will definitely be back if we need to board him again!”
“We were more than happy with our experience for boarding. You can tell George and Erin really loved on our pets from the pictures we recieved. We didn't feel worried at anytime, which helped us to enjoy our trip even more. I will use them again and definitely recommend.”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Wellington
Felicia and her family were amazing with my mini doodle for a 3-day boarding. We got multiple updates and pictures each day! He has some dietary restrictions and gets medication twice per day and she stated on top of all of it! We will definitely ask her to dogsit our boy again! Thank you, Felicia, for taking such good care of him!
Catherine was great with our little blind girl who needs several meds twice a day as well as two different eye drops. She made a special place in her home for little Miss Minnie and let her sleep in her bedroom as Minnie is used to at home. We really appreciate Catherine’s good care and obvious love of dogs. She also updated us several times during Minnie’s stay, I would not hesitate to hook Catherine again as the need may arise.
Daphne has been amazing from the beginning! We started using Rover over a year ago and Daphne has been our go-to sitter. She's amazing with all animals, very communicative, and easy to work with. Our most recent visit was a very last-minute overnight and Daphne didn't hesitate to take Lola. If you're looking for a sitter, Daphne is by far the best!
Stephanie was great!! She was highly communicative before and during our stay. We booked Stephanie on short notice as our typical dog care fell through, and she was amazing. She was very transparent about other dogs that would be in the house. We definitely felt comfortable leaving our dog with her, and she sent lots of great pics. I would definitely book her again!
Brooke did a wonderful job with my two fur baby. She sent lots of pictures, keeping me up to date with their active. She was also very flexible when I needed to alter drop off or pick up. She was very fast replying to all communications. I will definitely be using her again.

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 Wellington 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 Wellington.
<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 Wellington 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.
