“Clarissa and her family were so welcoming to Dexter. There doggie was as layed back as mine is. Just a few smells of each other and both went on their way. Dex had all the loves and cuddles he needed. Even their adorable children were obviously pet lovers. Dexter will be visiting again for certain.”

About: As a trusted home-body I’m always the one to watch family and friends’ pets when they go out of town. And I love it! I’m a freelancer who works from home so my schedule is incredibly flexible. I have more than enough time to play, cuddle, train, take walks, and give your dog all of the attention and care they deserve! I have a large fenced-in backyard and two dogs of my own to keep yours company during their stay. I have one 6 year old chihuahua and one 10-month old rat terrier puppy with plenty of friendly, playful energy. We have tons of toys and treats as well. If they’re kennel-trained, I have a kennel they can feel safe and secure in.

About: I have been doing drop-in pet sitting since I was 10 years old. I also worked at a Collie breeding facility for two years. I now own my own dog and have trained her and cared for her for 7 years. I have the ability to teach agility as well as basic obedience (sit, lay down, heel, roll over, etc). I am extremely active and love going on walks or runs with pets, but am happy to sit and offer belly rubs too! I am free to take care of your pet wherever and whenever you like, within reason. Unfortunately I cannot have pets at my house. Your dog's happiness and health is of the utmost importance. I am different from other sitters in that I possess extensive dog experience, patience, and an extreme love for animals. I am currently available most days to spend time with your pet. I was also a receptionist and am a vet technician at a local vet clinic and can use my knowledge in the event of an emergency. I fit it in around work and having my own dog. I typically spend a moderate amount of time with your pet, with the ability to conduct check ins as needed. I used to be a part time vet tech so I am very knowledgeable about many different clinical signs of pain or distress as well as any maladies your dog could have.

About: I have always had a huge love for dogs and have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities! I volunteer as a trainer with 4 Paws for Ability, where I have fostered, trained, and served as the primary handler for three dogs. Through this experience, I gained valuable skills in obedience training, puppy development, understanding dog behavior, and providing consistent, loving care. Outside of 4 Paws for Ability, I've also been a regular pet sitter for multiple families, caring for their dogs and building trusting relationships with both the pets and their owners. Both through 4 Paws and individually I've cared for dogs of all ages, including puppies as young as 8 weeks old, as well as dogs with special needs and conditions such as hip and elbow dysplasia and dogs in heat. These experiences have taught me how important it is to understand each dog's individual needs and adjust my care accordingly. One thing I especially enjoy is helping dogs maintain and build upon their existing training! I'm happy to reinforce commands, routines, and positive reinforcement techniques that families are already working on. I understand how important consistency is, especially for puppies and dogs actively learning new skills. Whether your dog is full of puppy energy, needs a little extra attention, or simply enjoys a relaxed routine, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I know how much trust goes into leaving your dog with someone else, and I'll always treat yours with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own! I'm currently a college student with a very flexible schedule! My classes are solely in the mornings and last no more than 2.5 hours (even when back-to-back), leaving me with plenty of time throughout the day to dedicate to pet care. I have lots of availability for walks, playtime, potty breaks, and giving your pup the love and attention they deserve! My weekends are also very flexible, allowing me to spend even more quality time with your pup and accommodate longer stays. I'm always happy to work with your dog's usual routine to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you're away! Your dog's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! I live in an apartment complex with a large, fully fenced-in dog park, providing plenty of space for exercise, playtime, and fresh air. Depending on your dog's personality and preferences, they can enjoy socializing with other dogs or have their own time to run around and play without other dogs present. I always prioritize safe interactions and will never force your pup into an environment they're uncomfortable with. I also have plenty of dog toys to keep your pup entertained, whether they love playing fetch, chewing on toys, or just having something fun to play with! I have a crate available if your dog is crate-trained or feels more comfortable having their own space. I'm happy to follow your dog's usual routines, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, and any ongoing training. With my experience handling and training dogs, I understand the importance of consistency, patience, and paying attention to each dog's individual needs. When caring for pets in a client's home, I make sure to respect their space and maintain their dog's familiar routine as closely as possible. I also love keeping owners updated with pictures and messages so they can feel confident that their pup is safe, happy, and receiving plenty of love and attention while they're away!

About: I’ve always loved animals and have been passionate about keeping them happy and healthy! I love any kind of animal in any shape or size and am not intimidated by big dogs! I have lots of experience with large dogs especially since my family has always owned black labs. I am a student at UK studying Forestry and Wildlife Biology! I attend classes full time but I have full availability on weekends. I can work around my class schedule for drop-in visits and walks. I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of space to play! There are currently no other pets in my home, so no need to worry about antisocial animals feeling stressed or territorial.

About: I enjoy spending time with animals, so there is always a guarantee that your pet will enjoy some quality time whether I am just playing with them and giving them a potty break, feeding them, or walking them! I have taken care of many people's pets before including older dogs, adolescent dogs, puppies, cats, fish, and more! I have a special place in my heart for animals, and I have a dog of my own, Ray, who is my best bud! I know how much pets can mean to us and impact our lives, and I know how important it is for people to know that their pets are well taken care of! I also know how much we miss our pets when we are away, even if it is for the day, so I am willing to go the extra mile to pamper your pet and do any extra things that will make you as the owner feel more comfortable with me caring for them! In the summer I have a free schedule! Other times my availability depends on the week. I can be flexible to meet your pets’ needs. I will treat your pets, like my own, like family! I am happy to implement any sorts of structure or training that you are doing with your pet to keep things consistent. I understand the importance of not only physically stimulating your dog, but also mentally with different types of enrichment.

“Rex had a wonderful Vacay with Rachel!! Regan is adorable and friendly, Rachel is so nice, quick to respond, and flexible about drop off and pick up! I got lots of photos and updates-- they truly made Rex a part of their family for the weekend-- the BEST feeling a dog-parent can have if you are away from your beloved pet. I can't say enough good things! Rex will definitely be back :)”

Shaine and her family are the absolute best! Our big guy was anxious and very curious. They loved on him like family! They were very flexible with our boarding needs. When I took Bear back for his second night, he was actually smiling and wanted to get out at their house. That absolutely warmed my heart. I definitely look forward to utilizing their services again. You will not be disappointed if you leave your fur baby with them!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.

Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Bridgeport home-away-from-home, packing:

  • Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
  • Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
  • Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Bridgeport.

Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

You and your Bridgeport sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.

Many sitters in KY ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
