“Donai was amazing and we’ll be working with her again! Our finicky old gal, Meeka, wasn’t a fan at first (like she is with everyone, not Donai’s fault). But Donai was patient with her and let Meeka warm up to her in her own way. Donai walked her daily and followed our feeding directions and took great care of her like she was her own. By day 2 Meeka let Donai’s pet her and by day 3 there were cuddles and Meeka wouldn’t leave her side. Thank you so much!”

“I have a very, VERY anxious dog that gets nervous around new people very easily. From theoment she walked into the house for a meet and greet, Misty did everything she could to make Freyja (my dog) comfortable with a new person. I know this worked because Freyja eventually let Misty take her out for a whole walk around the neighborhood. A privilege very few people ever get.”

“Loved having M at my house. My dogs were calm and relaxed when I got home and they had water (pet peeve coming home to no water) and they had taken care of everything the way I asked while I was gone for several days. Would 100% hire them again. My dogs are picky about who they like sometimes too.”

“Becca was very sweet and attentive to our babies needs! She kept us updated with daily pictures and messages about how they were doing. Will definitely continue hiring her in the near future!”

About: I’ve taken care of, for one, my own dog since I was young and besides from that my neighbors, friends, and family always rely on me when they’re out of town to take care of their pets:) I’ve taken care of puppies and senior dogs! I’m currently enrolled at the University Of Louisville, and have some in person and also online classes so when I’m available could differ but I’m pretty flexible and I could bring my laptop anywhere! I love pets like they’re my own, I have a deep spot in my heart for them all🥹 I can crate any size dog if need be (I know some worry about that). More than happy to take them out wherever whenever, play/walk with them, or bathe them:)!
About: I absolutely love animals and have my whole life. I just know my last words are going to be "pst pst...come here buddy" as I walk up to a big cat or something. I have had pets ever since I was little and have always considered them apart of my family. I have experience with the care of cats & dogs and I would be delighted to care for your fur baby! Currently this is my full time gig, so I am available for walks and check ins all through the day. I can also do overnight stays with your fur baby (in your home only). I am available to take walk doggos during the day/evening and even do some check ins to make sure they have all they need. Overnights will be in your home so your fur baby is in a familiar environment that they are comfy in.
“Jenna does great with our dog and spends lots of time with him when we are away, this is our second time having her watch him and will continue to use in the future”

“Brandon is an amazing dog sitter! He treated all of our dogs like his own and was super dependable. He came over and met the dogs prior to his first stay with them and got along great. He isn’t afraid of asking questions and is very kind. We will definitely be using him again.”

“Ava was great! She is one of the best sitters I have had so far, she did exactly everything that I asked if her. I loved all of the picture she sent throughout the day and that made me feel at ease although I was 300 miles away. My apartment felt even cleaner than I left it! My cat was seemed happy and content when I came back - she wasn’t clingy at all like she didn’t miss me much lol. I would definitely ask Ava to sit my place again. Highly recommend her.”

“Bayley was so awesome watching Millie over the weekend! I got plenty of pictures and messages, and was able to rest assured that Millie was well cared for while I was out of town!”

“Chelcie was fabulous! She was great with my dog and really communicative, she sent the best pictures of him! We also had some last minute issues arise and she was so understanding and kind when we had to change things around unexpectedly. Highly recommend!”

About: Caring for other is my passion. Whether it's people or pets. I love animals and treat them like another member of the family. I grew up with pets and I've cared for them my entire life. I also have a nack for training dogs as well. I potty trained my dog and taught her to open doors and take items to others. I can provide play data as well with family members who have pets as well with other rover customers if desired. I live in a safe and clean environment that will foster a great experience for all parties. I'm looking to build long lasting relationships with all pets and their owners. Choosing me will be a great choice. Have a great day. Thank you for your consideration.
“Kaitlyn was amazing! She sat my girl for the whole week and she always kept me updated and took photos ! Her communication is the best ! Will definetly use her again !!”

“left apartment cleaner than we left it!! took out the trash for us (that we meant to take out prior to leaving) without us asking. marty seemed to have had a great time!”

“Everything went very well! Aiden kept in touch with me, sending pictures of the boys, which helped me feel better about leaving them. We came home to a clean house and happy dogs.”

“Annie is a saint! Our dog has anxieties, especially with storms, and she did everything she could think of to help him when storms hit. We received photos and videos constantly, so I always felt like I knew what they were getting into. I will be recommending her to anyone that needs a sitter in the future!”

Desiree did a wonderful job watching Maple and Millie while we were away for the weekend! She checked in on them frequently, spent lots of time interacting and playing with them, and was always giving updates and pictures! We are definitely going to go with her again

Katie was incredible. She came for not one but two meet and greets before we went away on our vacation to meet our anxious 4 year old, and new 12 week old puppy. She sent pictures and updates throughout the stay. Left the house beautifully clean. We would 100% recommend Katie and will use her again if she's available.

Brandon took wonderful care of our animals and we would absolutely book him again! We had a few minor miscommunications around some of the notes, but it was all resolved extremely professionally and I never doubted for a moment that our animal's care and safety were his top priority!
Renee is so patient with our anxious rescue dog. She handled her with love and kindness. We received daily updates with photos and videos. I will continue to use Renee for any of my pet sitter needs. I trust her one hundred percent in my home and with my fur baby. She is the best!

Sarah provided amazing care. Our cats were in good hands with Sarah. She administered food and medicine according to our preferred schedule. She went above and beyond in tending to our house while we were away. We (and the cats) are happy to have met Sarah! We will be requesting her again for future stays.

Brynne was so great! She worked with our other Rover sitter to make sure my pets had care while we were gone and she noticed when my dog started itching and let me know so I could order him meds. I really appreciate her picking them up for me and getting him started on them! I would 100% recommend Brynne!

Madi was such a great sitter! The pups were happy and relaxed when we got home. We had a flight cancellation without much notice and she was able to stay an extra day in an urgent situation and was so kind about it. Our home was exactly as we left it when we returned. We highly recommend Madi as a sitter and hope to be able to rebook her in the future!

Ryo did a great job for our 10 night house/cat-sit. Great communication, sent plenty of pictures, and I know that our three shy cats were definitely building that comfort and familiarity you all hope for in a house or pet sitter. Only feedback is the water bowls needed one last top-up, but not the end of the world. Overall Ryo was super respectful of our space, and left everything in its place. You'll be our first choice for future cat and house sitting needs if you're interested Ryo, that's for sure! Thanks again so much.

Brooke was so wonderful with our two dogs!!! It was such a relief to find someone to take care of both our dogs while all my family was out of town. She did great giving one dog medicine and with making food for a picky dog. Also our house was well taken care of. I would definitely recommend Brooke and I will be using her again.

Anthony is amazing!! We had a sitter cancel last minute and reached out to Anthony. He responded right away and was happy to watch our energetic pitbull for a week despite the very short notice. He sent us lots of pics throughout the week and we were able to enjoy our vacay knowing our pup was being well taken care of. We came home to a clean house and happy pup!

DeAndria was absolutely amazing to our pups! One of our dogs requires a lot of attention & patience and she met his needs flawlessly. They got lots of love, snuggles, and walks! She sent us photos every day too which was much appreciated. We will absolutely book with her again!
