We had a wonderful experience with our Alexis. She was always on time, extremely dependable, and very easy to work with. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dog was in such caring hands. She absolutely loved her, and it was obvious she treated them like her own. Communication was great, and everything went smoothly from start to finish. The quality of care and reliability made it completely worth it. We would happily book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring for their pets!

Ginger went above and beyond! I just wanted someone to feed Harvey and give him his insulin but she actually cared and played with him! Made me feel better about being gone. Also the Rover Cards I got were some of the cutest pics of him ever!

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.

About: I’m a responsible adult who just wants to provide love, comfort and compassion to your fur babies when you can’t be there! I have experience with both cats and dogs and equally enjoy their company! I work primarily weekends at the hospital (I am an ICU RN) - I have a lot of flexibility as I’m PRN and make my own schedule I have experience with fences, leashes, pens and tie outs. I am not afraid of “accidents” and make sure you provide the same care that you would to your furbaby

Abigail took wonderful care of our two cats while we were away. She was very attentive, making sure Sancho received his medicine every day without any issue, and kept us updated with messages and photos that gave us peace of mind. Both of our cats were happy, comfortable, and well cared for when we came back. We truly appreciate her kindness and dedication, and we would definitely trust her again in the future!

About: I have been pet sitting since I was 16 years old. I am often asked by coworkers of family to house sit during their vacations. I have pet sat dogs, cats, fish, and even chickens! I am comfortable waking, giving medication, and cuddling (my personal favorite), whatever your pup needs! I have two dogs of my own. One of my dogs is a senior and is high need due to his bone cancer. He requires daily medication and will until we are able to remove the leg. My other pup is a rambunctious lab, who is high drive and needs daily stimulation so he doesn’t anger his older brother. I often take him on walks or use the pond near our home to tire him out! I am used to house sitting in all types of homes. If your pup needs a daily walk I am can do that. If they’re an outside pup we can take a walk or even a hike! I stay at the home and don’t leave often. I ask that a physical copy of directions are left so that I can give the 100% proper care and able to contact through phone as well!

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 … obsessed with animals. I have been taking care of pets my entire childhood and after graduating college, started raising my own! I was a nanny and dogsitter all throughout college and I have a genuine love for all animals, big and small. I am currently working a hybrid job, so my schedule is very flexible. I also live with my husband, who has been a veterinary technician since 2016. We can handle all kinds of medications, special needs, etc plus one of us is almost always home! I consider myself to be very patient and kind when dealing with others’ pets. I know how important it is to me that my fur baby is taken care of when I’m away, so I promise to treat yours just like my own. I love meeting pets of all ages and kinds, and promise to give each and every one the love they deserve!!! Between my husband and I, someone is almost always home! I wot a flexible hybrid schedule. My husband is currently in school so he’s away for a couple hours for classes a few days per week and then comes right back home. But we’re always willing and able to accommodate things outside of our schedule, just ask! If providing care in my home, I have one older dog named Teddy. We also have a dog park at my apartment complex and lots of places to walk nearby. If providing care at your home, let me know your preferences! I’m happy to walk your baby or just snuggle, whatever you want.
