“Sarah was great with our chihuahua! He warmed up quickly even though he is nervous around new people. Sarah sent daily updates and picture and was so very nice.”


“Kyra was great with our dog and cats! This was our first pet sitting experience and now we look forward to working with her again. She really went above and beyond with our older lab mix!”


“Alan has natural report with dogs and we recognized that he was trustworthy and caring in an instant. He did a great job with our dog and elderly cat over night.”


“Nicole was wonderful! She was happy to come by and meet the dogs (and me) in advance, and upon meeting her I had no reservations about having her watch our pets in our home. She sent photos while we were gone and was very communicative. Would highly recommend!”


“She’s a wonderful person, punctual and compassionate towards my pets needs. Trustworthy and kind, highly recommend.”


“Kaitlyn was absolutely a saving grace staying at our home and taking care of our fur babies. She is so amazing with our young dogs, energetic, bratty, and crazy as they are. She is patient and our chiweenie (who does NOT like strangers) was napping in her lap within 2 days. (We were SHOOK) She sends pictures several times a day along with any funny moments or important updates. (Which put our minds at ease our entire trip). Our fur babies are our children and having someone who we now trust and is so amazing with them… it’s such a weight lifted. It’s a miracle to find someone like Kaitlyn. 11/10 recommend her!”



“Annie was amazing!! She sent updates morning and evening with several pics and videos each time. She played outside with her and even did some training. Our Janie had a wonderful time with her!!”


“Jennifer stayed at my house to watch my very anxious dog baby. She got the best photos of him. My little Cheech boy did very good and cannot wait for Jennifer to help us again.”


“Second time using Hailey and have future plans! She is easy to get in touch with, sends update photos, and keeps me in the loop if needed!!! So grateful!!!”



“Rachael did an amazing job with my dogs. I’m not sure they even cared I was gone. They had a fun day and I received many photo and video updates throughout. Could not recommend Rachael enough. I will definitely be booking her again!”


“Lindsay was amazing. She took great care of my girls and my house while I was away. Highly recommend!!!”


“Carla did an excellent job house and dog sitting for us. I could tell immediately that we were in very good hands and that our dogs were going to be well cared for. We received pictures and updates every day, the communication was excellent. She asked helpful questions in our meet and greet and I could tell how knowledgeable she is. We were able to go on vacation at ease knowing things were well taken care of at home. Highly recommend!”


“She’s amazing, very friendly and Max had no issues. We appreciate her help.”


About: I just recently had to put my cat down so I am looking to love on some new furry friends. Previous to having pets of my own, I have taken care of pets for the past ten years and can offer several enrichment opportunities. I am a teacher on summer break, so I am available to take care your of your fur babies! I am very available on weekends as well. I live in an apartment, which is why I don't want to have pets in my home. It is important that dogs and cats have the space they need and are in an environment comfortable to them. I am currently new to Rover, which is why I have so few reviews!

“If you are looking for someone to love your pets the way you do, then Meredith is perfect for you! We had her for a meet and greet and both dogs AND cat loved her ! I left written instructions and went over them with her beforehand and she followed everything perfectly! She is reliable, and has no problem reaching out with questions, and we are thankful to have found her.”


About: I’ve been dog sitting for friends and family for 6 years. The dogs that I have watched before were a German Shepard Poodle Mix (multiple weeks), a Bloodhound and a Mini poodle at the same time 3x (week at a time), an Irish terrier (a week), Aussie poodle, (a month) I’m 27 years old so I have plenty of energy and am physically able to handle, I would think, any dog. Grew up with a boxer, so high energy is fun for me. Usually follow the food directions but there’s nothing wrong with a little treat for the pup at the end of the day. (Unless he/she is on a diet) I work full time, the regular 8-5. Free time after that, dinner and sporting events would be the only reason I would leave the house in the evening. In a clients home, I would allow ample outside time on a pretty day, whether that be in a yard or on a walk, to allow for the sniffs and marking of territory. Ensure that the dog is cleaned up before coming inside. Enjoy pets and playful time as well with dog toys. Not a stranger to making a dog sit for a treat either to test his/her listening. Ear scratches, belly rubs are all on the table. Ensure that the client home stays as clean as it was prior to the visit.

“Patrick was great with my pets! I went out of town last minute and got very lucky to get a great sitter! I came home and they were happy and healthy! Will definitely use again!! Thank so much for the great care.”


About: I have had dogs my entire life, 3 dogs at a time for a majority of that. I am attentive, loving, and super tidy. I have volunteered with the Kentucky Humane Society multiple times. I will make sure that your furry friends are well cared for and happy while you’re away. I have always been an animal lover, even as a younger kid, I would dog-sit, cat-sit, and even chicken-sit for the neighbors and family members. So if you have chickens, rest assured it isn’t my first rodeo in the coop! I have also dog sat numerous times throughout high school for friends, family members, and family-friends. I am a college student and an avid theatre artist within the community. Most days I will have classes 9-1 on the weekdays but will be free after that. I am free on the weekends. If you want to see if I am available, just reach out and we’ll see! :) I will always give your furry friends attention (if they want it) and make sure that they are happy, well fed, and walked. Me and your pet are sure to be best friends by the time you get back!

“Would definitely use Amanda again. Very attentive and gave use lots of updates.”


“Cassie did a great job watching our two dogs and cat. Normally the dogs are very hyper and anxious when we arrive home but after this 3-day trip away they were very chill and just happy dogs with a "no biggie we've not seen you for three days" attitude. That told me everything I needed to know about the fun they had with Cassie. Can't wait to use her again.”
