Ginger has been amazing with my dog! Her availability is amazing and she has helped me a ton when it comes to last minute bookings. My schedule at the hospital is crazy and I often work longer hours and I know that my dog is being cared for and loved by her when I am not home. I can’t recommend her enough!

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover who’s been caring for dogs since I was five years old, starting with my first dog, Skipper. I currently have two rescue mixes—a 14-year-old boxer/husky and a 7-year-old pittie/husky—which has given me a deep respect for senior dogs and the quirks that come with them. I have a particular affinity for dogs with special needs and hands-on experience caring for dogs who are deaf, highly anxious, or require daily medications. I’m patient, observant, and take each dog’s routine seriously—your dog will be safe, understood, and well cared for (even if they pretend not to like me at first). Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which means I’m available throughout the day for walks, feedings, medications, check-ins, and supervision—not just quick drop-ins. I adapt my day around a pet’s existing routine, not the other way around, and I’m available on weekends as well. Translation: your fur baby will be thoroughly cared for, closely monitored, and occasionally wondering why I’m still there. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow routines closely—feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any house-specific instructions. I’m attentive without hovering and respect both the pet’s space and your home. Everything will be left exactly as you left it, and your pet will be safe, settled, and properly cared for by someone who knows what they’re doing, regardless of how unimpressed your dog or cat may seem.

Walked my dog last minute on NYE. I frankensteined some directions to get in our building and walk the dog and Alexis did a fantastic job and was super communicative. Would recommend again!

About: I have taken care of pets since I was a child. We groom our cocker spaniels. If you want your dog bathed or groomed we can provide the service for an additional fee.

About: I have been dog-sitting for my neighbor’s and family members for about 8 years with various breeds. I have experience in distributing medicine and general hygiene to help ensure your pet stays looking and feeling their best. I am a college student at NKU and also work part time on my college campus. While that sounds like a crazy schedule my absolute joy is being able to watch animals. I will always make time to help anyone out and strive to respond within 1-5 minutes to bookings requests or availability. My favorite job is being able to help others out so it’s one less thing you have to worry about and I get to watch your pet which is the highlight of my day. I have a 7-year-old dog named Bailey and she is a mixed breed. I do general and daily hygiene for my dog, including teeth brushing, bathing, ear cleaning, and cleaning her paws. My dog Bailey also has some anxiety so I am not new to some animals who become shaky or nervous. My dog loves to be outside and in the sun, so I ensure we have some sunbathing time in our day and time to roll around in the grass.

About: I am an experienced dog walker and I have experience with all different breeds and sizes cats included.

I am your girl to call if you need someone with short notice or any type of notice. I do work full time but have off days during the week and plenty of time before and after work to make sure they are getting the care they need I have a fenced in yard and 2 friendly dogs to help keep your baby entertained.

About: Dogs have always been an important part of my life, and I truly love spending time with them. I currently have a 2 ½-year-old doodle who keeps me active and happy! We enjoy plenty of walks, runs (which are available upon request!), and time spent at the park playing with his frisbee. In addition to caring for my own pup, I have experience with dogs of all ages and understand the attention and love they need at every stage. I’ve even cared for a diabetic dog that required daily insulin injections, so I’m comfortable handling special medical needs as well. As a dog owner myself, I truly understand the time, care, and commitment it takes to ensure a happy and healthy pet. I make it a priority to spend quality time with my dog every evening, whether that’s through mental stimulation with treats, going for walks or runs, playing frisbee at the park, or tossing a ball around the house. You can rest assured that I’ll give your dog the same level of attention, love, and energy. I always ensure that the home is left exactly as I found it. If the pet has a designated crate, I make sure they are safely and comfortably placed there before I leave. I’m mindful of my surroundings and take great care to be cautious and respectful in every home I enter.

About: *Note about rates and dates* I'm happy to discuss/negotiate amicably agreed upon $$rates but please understand, Rover takes 20% and I pet sit full time so this is my main source of income. Additionally, my sister is on Rover. Her name is Brett. If I'm unavailable, I highly recommend reaching out to her! She has 3 years experience pet sitting. Her link https://www.rover.com/sit/brettg06694 (scroll down for bio). I'm your pet's new best friend! Well sort of. You come first! 6 years experience taking care of multiple pets. Administered medications and special feedings. I've watched furry, fluffy and feathery pets from dogs and cats to chickens, bunnies and even a rat! I pet sit full time so I'm at your plaxe most of the day. Likely, I'll leave to workout, run errands, see friends but I will let you know if there's a particularly busy day and we'll discuss so you feel comfortable knowing your pet(s) is still being taken care of. Plenty of time to stay at your place overnight, teach fitness or clean a house then come back for quality time with your fur family. I DO NOT PROVIDE HOUSING AT MY HOME. I will gladly come to your residence and even stay overnight for your pets to alleviate any anxiety and make you and your family feel safe and at ease. References upon request. My business operates mainly by word of mouth. As of May 2021, I've worked full time as a pet sitter. To put it in perspective, I'm house/pet sitting 300/365 days of the year. Please check availability as my pet sitting schedule fills up quickly.

Allison has been great! Super friendly and helpful when scheduling, and she has great availability. This is the second time she's taken our Aussie pup on a walk to help get some energy out. Love getting the pictures of her time with him and the note she leaves about their time together. Will definitely keep using Allison

About: Ever since I can remember, my family has always had multiple dogs. Forming strong, meaningful connections with animals has been a natural part of my life, and caring for dogs has shaped who I am in many ways. As an adult, I’ve been pet-sitting for about five years. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, including my parents’ dogs, family friends’ pets, and others in my community. I really enjoy getting to know each dog as an individual; understanding their personality, their preferences, and the little things that help them feel comfortable and secure. One of my favorite parts of pet care is taking dogs on walks and exploring nature with them- letting them sniff, sight see, and just be themselves. I’m attentive, patient, and always focused on making sure they feel calm, safe, and happy during our time together. When your dog stays with me, they will receive consistent attention, gentle care, and respect for their unique routine and needs. I’m currently working part-time on varying days and hours, typically in the evenings, and I’m also in school. Even with that, I have plenty of time to spend with your pups! I’m available for walks, rain or shine (though heavy snow might be a challenge due to transportation). Right now, with it being winter break, I have extra availability, so please don’t hesitate to reach out if your dog needs some attention, a walk, or some exercise. If you choose to board with me, I don’t have any dogs in my home, and I live in a spacious duplex with an unfenced backyard. While it’s not fully fenced, I can safely walk your dog on a leash in the backyard. I also live right next to a large urban park with lots of green space, walking paths, and safe areas for exercise and exploration. For walks, I prioritize your dog’s safety and comfort. I always keep them on a secure leash, pay close attention to their behavior, and avoid unsafe areas. Whether we’re exploring the park or just enjoying a stroll outside, your dog’s well-being is always my top priority!
