About: I’ve had the responsibility of taking care of over 20 pets of my own since I was young. I have a deep love for animals and understand that each dog has its own unique pet care needs. I have the most experience with small dogs as I have one of my own. I am not afraid to work with dogs who pull on leashes. I can’t wait to meet your furry friends! I’m a college student but my schedule is very open and flexible. I come home often between class and don’t typically go more than 2hrs away from home. If you have questions you can message me directly I am always open to figuring something out! If a dog is boarding in my house he/she will get lots of loving attention and frequent walks :) I would like to meet the client and pet together for the first time before a service is provided. This way I can ensure the safety and familiarity of both parties, as well as learn about any important information about the dog I may need to know so everyone feels comfortable :)

We were away for a few weeks and were looking for an attentive, animal loving, reliable care taker to look after her. Tessa not only met those expectations but went above and beyond for our cat! Would highly recommend her if you’re looking for short or long term pet sitting.

About: I have taken care of not just dogs and cats but also bunnies, rats, fish and ducks and all of them were wonderful learning experiences I am a university student and some days are busier than others but I will always have time between classes to come check on animals. I have had dogs and cats my whole life so I have some experience working with them. Mine are crate trained and I know they need to be checked in regularly.

Cindy was reliable, responsive and took good care of our house full of cats while we were away. She sent pics and updates and even did a few dishes that were in the sink. We would have her sit again. Thanks Cindy!

About: With your pets permission, they will be loved on. Pets in my care will be treated like family. I have been around pets of all kinds my whole life and have pet sat for over 5 years! The only days of the week where I’m out for more than 3 hours is Tuesdays and Thursdays. I am at home otherwise, the more time I have with your pet, the better! I do have two cats, so they will likely be separated from your pets in a boarding situation, but I live next to a dog park so it is easily accessible for pups. I have many cat toys and treat varieties as well.

About: I have had so many pets over my lifetime. Including 6 dogs, a bird, a bunny, a kitten, several fish, frogs, many guinea pigs, a hamster, hermit crabs and even a hedgehog! I have been a pet sitter for many years as well. I really enjoy it and love to treat every animal I meet as my own. I currently work part time, so I will have lots of time to take care of your pets and help you out! Just reach out & we can discuss my schedule for the week! I like to meet with the owner & discuss how I can make your pet as comfortable as possible and talk about all of their needs and what they like.

About: I’ve cared for pets of all kinds-from farm animals to small pets like rabbits and hamsters, and of course, cats and dogs of all sizes. With years of experience and a lifelong love for animals, I’m ready to give your pets the same care and attention I give my own. I understand how important your furbabies are, and I’d love to provide them with reliable, loving care. I’m an active college student at Eastern Kentucky University! I have classes three days a week, with breaks between them, leaving plenty of time to care for your precious furbabies. I’d love to provide them with the attention and love they deserve. I would love to shower your pets with love and attention! I always follow any rules you provide for food, treats, or routines. For dogs, I enjoy giving them plenty of time outside when the weather permits, and I am happy to take them on walks. I’m also more than willing to get on the floor and play with any pets who want interaction. I follow instructions carefully and make it a point to leave your home tidy, taking care of any messes your pets might make along the way.

About: My wife and I live on a farm with plenty to explore! I’m a full-time teacher, which means patience, consistency, and understanding individual needs are a big part of who I am. I bring that same approach to pet care. I’m reliable, calm, and always focused on keeping pets comfortable, happy, and safe. When your dog is with me, they’re treated like family with plenty of affection, routine, and communication so you feel confident while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into our routine. My wife or I are almost always home which allows us to give pets full attention and avoid any rushed or distracted care. We live on a spacious property where dogs have plenty of room to explore, and we make sure outdoor time is always supervised. We use secure tethers and leashes to keep pets safe while still giving them the chance to enjoy fresh air and play. Whether inside or outside, we stay attentive to where the dog is and how they’re doing. Our goal is a calm, safe environment where pets can relax, stretch their legs, and feel comfortable and cared for.

Candace was wonderful taking care of our bunny boy! She was very attentive and thorough with check-ins. She also went above and beyond while we were gone for a week, handling some miscellaneous household tasks when they arose. Our old man is a grumpy one and by the end of the week absolutely loved her. Will be booking again! ❤️

This was my first time using rover and having someone besides a family member care for my senior cat so I was very nervous about how she would do. Rachael took great care of her and gave me plenty of updates and pictures! Bella did wonderful! Would definitely book with Rachael again!

Selah did a fantastic job. This was our first time using rover and she did not disappoint. She kept me well informed of messes, updates and earned our dogs trust. She even picked up our trash cans when the wind blew them over. Highly recommend using her to care for your fur baby.

About: I always strive to ensure that my clients certainty regarding their fur-babies needs are always met, their safety, comfort & happiness is paramount & knowing your home is secure & safe with me. I like to bring treats, which I will inform you of & only offer with your consent. Additionally I work with reactivity, past abuse history, disabilities & seniors. Because of the patience & time I dedicate to all animals my clients have the security knowing their babies & homes are safe with me. I will gladly send you videos & photos along with updates throughout the visit & upon request will take them to any vet appts. Always making certain they’re happy & well taken care of, I do offer overnights at your home for standing clients because I want to be certain that they feel completely comfortable with me in their safe space while you are away. I am very trustworthy, loving & responsible & will care for them just as you would. I am currently available all days of the week for a walks and drop-ins, & overnights upon request (for standing clients). All animals have individual needs & quirks. I understand this more than most because my fur baby has medical issues & is a senior that demand more attention than most. I will treat every pet as my own, because I understand the importance of peace of mind knowing they are safe & cared for & loved. I work with many seniors & several dogs with special needs & am happy to accommodate any of their needs or requirements, even if it seems silly to others. I want to ensure they are happy & healthy, therefore I also keep a close eye on any irregularities & inform you immediately.
