“Joanna did a great job!! She was very communicative. She sent pictures of the pets regularly, followed all directions left, reached out with any questions, and left the house tidy upon the end of the service. She even came over a week before to meet the pets and familiarize herself with the location of foods and treats! Very thankful for her work!”

“Lauran is an absolute dream of a companion, house sitter, fur baby manager and lover, and just overall great human. Lauran was thoughtful, responsive and responsible in every way. From sharing pics of our Simon and Molly with us, to asking questions of us as needed, to her bubbly and positive personality, to her attention to detail, she will be our go to person every time we need someone who we trust to spend time at our home and with our pups. We came home to a house nice Ethan we left it a two dogs that were clearly well taken care of while we weee away. Thank you Lauran for being such a great Rover sitter! Thank you Lauran for giving us such peace found and comfort as we traveled.”

“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.”

“Sophie watched our 2 dogs and 2 cats while we were out of town, and was phenomenal! She was very communicative, and our animals loved her! It alleviates the stress of leaving when you know the animals and house are being taken care of. We would (and will) absolutely use her again!”

“We have used Kaitlyn several times for sitting with our pup and cats. She’s always a pleasure. She has great communication and our babies love her. The house is always neat and clean when she leaves. We love having her sit for us!”

“Lianne was a great sitter for our 12 yr old yellow lab and 1-eyed cat! She communicated well and sent us a few photos throughout our 4 day trip. We felt very comfortable with her staying at our place and taking care of our fur babies. Would definitely call on her again. 🌟”

“Lauren was fantastic and so sweet! She was super communicative, asked great questions and truly made me feel so at peace knowing how well she was taking care of Pixie. Looking forward to using Lauren again for our future doggie and house sitting needs!”

“Patrick did a wonderful job taking care of Zenna! He kept me updated regarding their daily adventures and gave her the exercise she needs. This is one of the few times she did not beg me for a walk once I returned home. I will certainly be using Patrick again.”

“Kaylynn was great with Ghost. She fed and walked him and cared for him like my dog was hers. Ghost ( my dog) has separation anxiety and Kaylynn is very kind and this helped a lot while I was away. I would definitely use Kaylynn again and would recommend her without hesitation.”

“Angela was so accommodating to our ever changing schedule and took great care of our cat and dog while we were away! She was incredibly thoughtful and sent lots of updates showing our pets very happy with her. She even went above and beyond and would take my dog to the dog park and put away all of our dishes in the dish washer. I would recommend her 100% to anyone looking to make sure your pet(s) gets amazing care while you’re out of town.”
“Amber is wonderful. She stayed at our house with our fur baby 24 hours for a week. Sent pictures and left the house nice and tighty. Will definitely use from now on. Highly recommend!!”


“Catherine was great with our pups! She saved us in a pinch and booked us last minute so we could make our concert! She was very tentative when we gave her instructions and had no issues bonding right to our 3 babies. If we are ever in Louisville again and need our pups watched, she will be our first call! We also got video and picture updates the entire time we were gone! Top tier service!”

“Madison was a pleasure to have in my home. My partner and I were gone for the entire day with a 13 week old shepherd puppy at home. Not only were we worried about leaving him alone for an entire day, but we knew he could be a handful. She took on his energy with gusto (and even managed to tire him out) but also was a great companion for our 2 year old collie. While we didn't need her to take care of the cats, she was more than pleasant around them and happy to meet them when we did a meeting the weekend before. Should I need any more puppy-sitting for the day, I'd be happy to have her back around my boys.”

“Katie was great and extremely flexible with our travel delays. She took care of our lazy dog and grumpy cat and had excellent communication with us our entire trip. She took care of our house like it was her own.”

About: I have experience with both young and older pets. With puppies and kittens, I stay consistent with routines and can help reinforce basic training like potty habits, feeding schedules, and positive behavior. For senior pets, I’m gentle and attentive to their needs, whether that means giving medication, moving at a slower pace, or just providing extra comfort and companionship. I also make sure pet owners feel at ease by keeping communication open—I can send updates, photos, and check-ins so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to create a stress-free experience for both you and your pet. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for. I make time for walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day, and I’m consistent with routines so pets feel comfortable and secure. Throughout the week, I stay flexible to meet each pet’s specific needs, whether that’s extra visits, longer walks, or special care. I’m reliable and make sure every pet gets the attention and care they deserve. In my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets are comfortable, safe, and kept on their normal routine. I follow all feeding instructions, give fresh water, regular potty breaks, and plenty of exercise and attention. I also provide playtime, affection, and calm companionship so they feel at ease while you’re away. I keep the space clean and always respect the client’s home just like it’s my own.
“Cassie was great! Our initial plans changed and Cassie was flexible and accommodating. She checked in on our dog, played ball with her and sent us a picture. We will use Cassie again for sure!”

“Kai was very attentive and amazing with Wrigley. She sent updates frequently to check in and let me know my girl was doing well. I appreciate the quick communication and overall had an amazing experience!”

Avondale Melbourne Heights pet parents share their Rover experiences
Carla did a phenomenal job watching our two dogs over spring break. It was our first time using the Rover app and she the experience a breeze. We especially appreciated the daily photo updates; seeing them looking relaxed and happy really allowed us to enjoy our trip without any worry. Her communication was top-notch from start to finish—she was quick to respond and kept us informed every step of the way. We can't recommend her enough to other Rover users. If you are looking for someone reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring, Carla is the best!

Asher was incredible! She cared for my pup, Leo, while I was away, and her care was simply outstanding. She was so thoughtful and engaged. She sent frequent updates, adorable photos, and left my home spotless. Knowing Leo was in such caring hands made my trip even more enjoyable. It’s clear she has a gift for this, and Leo adored her. I am immensely grateful!

Cassie was kind enough to fill in for a different dog-sitter who cancelled on us truly at the last minute. She was super fast to respond and extremely flexible when we kept having to adjust our plans. We could immediately tell she had great energy that our anxious chihuahuas warmed up to very quickly. Would definitely book Cassie again. Thank you for being such a lifesaver!!
We didn’t get to use Diane this time. Our 14 year old Border Collie, Mouse, passed right before Diane was supposed to sit. My husband ended up canceling his trip and stayed home with our cats. However, Diane was very professional and friendly during our meet and greet and extremely empathetic upon finding out about Mouse.
