About: Looking for an excited pet sitter with experience living with and caring for fur babies? Look no further! I have lived with and taken care of dogs for much of my life, and I have plenty of experience dog sitting for friends and family. I am able to stay overnight and accommodate any requests you may have for your fur baby - keeping them happy and healthy is the priority! I’m currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to play with your pets during the day! I am available to be present constantly on weekends and after 4:30pm on weekdays, as well. Whatever your schedule, I would be happy to accommodate! I live in an apartment, so I am only able to care for pets in my home for short periods of time (an afternoon or so!). If there are needs in-home while I am pet sitting (any cleaning or house care), I would be happy to take care of that as well!
“Hayley and Alaina were such a blessing! They worked with my schedule and were very flexible. They showered my pup with love and fantastic care from the moment I dropped her off. Will definitely be using again I can’t recommend enough!”

“Yamile was awesome with Gunther. He played and had a good time. Definitely recommend her to anyone with a pet. She kept us updated all day with photos and videos really give us peace of mind”

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was very young. I have exceptional patience, gentleness and instant for care. I am very comfortable caring small and large breeds with different energy levels and needs. I work from home which means the dogs won't be left alone for hours. They'll get attention, snuggles, potty breaks, and companionship throughout the day. I have two dogs of my own and I take care of them all day. I give them walks and play breaks constantly. While also providing a very comfortable place for them to rest and snuggle
About: Hi there! 👋 I’m new to Rover, but definitely not new to caring for dogs! I work from home full-time, so your pup will have company, love, and attention all day long. I treat every dog like family—lots of patience, playtime, belly rubs, and cuddles included. 🐶 Whether your dog’s an energetic adventurer or a laid-back nap buddy, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and right at home while you’re away. 💸 If you’re new to Rover, you can get $20 off your first booking with me here: rover.com/sit/emilyd65306 I’m experienced with everything from crate training and leash manners to senior care. I know being away from your pet can be tough, so I send lots of photo and video updates to help you feel connected and at ease while you’re apart. My goal is for you to relax knowing your dog is not only well cared for—but also having fun! My days naturally revolve around dogs. Our routine includes morning potty breaks and walks, playtime in my fully fenced backyard, and plenty of snuggle breaks. In the evenings, we enjoy longer walks through my dog-friendly neighborhood before winding down together.
About: I have always loved dogs and wanted to be around them. At age 10, I started my own dog walking business in my neighborhood. Then a few years later my family finally got our own dog (she’s a husky named Skye). Since then, I helped with daily caretaking (walks, grooming, feeding, etc.) until I left for college. During that time I also dogsat for about 10 different families. Many of those families were reoccurring customers! The dogs ranged from puppies to seniors, so I have experience with dogs of all ages! I will love your dog like you love your dog! I am currently a student. I only have class Tuesdays (12:30-4:45) and Thursdays (12:30-3:15), so I am free most of those days and all day Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday! Overall, my schedule is very flexible with your pets needs! I live in an apartment with room for a crate if needed! There is also a fenced in dog park on the property and good space for walks and doing business! I will care for your dog in your home however I am needed!

About: After experiencing the tragic loss of my own cats due to a negligent pet sitter, I became deeply committed to providing the highest level of care for all animals. That experience taught me how vital it is to entrust pets to someone who not only understands their needs but treats them like family. I specialize in senior pet care, offering compassionate support for aging pets, including administering medications, managing health conditions, and providing gentle, tailored exercise routines. I also have experience training puppies, helping them develop good behaviors early on and ensuring they have the structure they need to thrive. My focus is always on building trust and creating a safe, loving environment for your pets, so they feel comfortable and secure when you're away. Above all, I aim to offer peace of mind to pet owners, knowing their animals are in caring, responsible hands. Available almost anytime in Lexington and surrounding areas contact in advance is recommended but we can take last-minute calls depending on the situation and what not. Also I work with you budget! I have a park near me and I do take my own dog to the dog park every chance I get via Lyft and plenty of toys for your fur babies!
“Carrera is amazing to work with. Our dog loves her and is so excited to see her. Carrera communicates consistently and effectively. She is always on time; great with medications; and just a kind human. I can't recommend her enough.”
“Nathan did a great job! Great communication and I appreciate how he asked a few extra questions when I first dropped my pup off to make sure he took care of him well. Pup returned happy! Highly recommend!”

“She did great with my pup. My pup took a surprise trip to her parents house and went on a walk with their pup! My pup was all worn out at the end of the day!”

While visiting town for a couple weeks for work, Lupe provided such excellent care and love for my pup Barley while I was at work. She gave great updates during the day and I felt super comfortable picking him up every day, because he was always super happy and clearly well cared for! Thank you, Lupe!

Virginia was absolutely amazing with our dog Moby. To start, we had to book extremely last minute because our other dog sitter cancelled. Virginia was accommodating and welcoming! She was also very communicative from the time of booking regarding drop off, expectations, etc. Then we get to her house, she has an amazing yard! She had toys for Moby to play with. Finally, we left him with her and received several updates! (More than I sometimes get when we have a dog sitter for a whole weekend which brought me so much relief and joy because I had updates on Moby’s status the entire time. I knew when he relaxed, when he ate, about his walk, etc. I loved it!) I would 100% schedule with Virginia again because of the care, communication, and consideration she had. Thank you Virginia for the best stay and being so accommodating!
