“We were very happy with the care that Rubes gave to our two cats. We never leave them for long, so four days was a lot for us all. But Rubes took good care of them during her check ins and sent SO MANY pictures. Made us feel really comfy and happy with our choice.”


“Gemma did drop in visits daily for my puppy until she got fully vaccinated and I couldn’t recommend her enough! Will definitely get in touch with her again in the future if needed. Thank you!!”


“Kris was amazing with our boys! She watched them over the Fourth of July weekend and went above and beyond trying to keep them feeling comfortable while the fireworks were going off. This was our first experience with rover and definitely a great one!! Will be booking with her again next time.”


“It’s like we never left! Alicia followed every detail precisely, was dependable, and very respectful of our house and cats. She figured out all the nuances of each of my three cats’ personalities and needs. She communicated w us through each visit which was so appreciated and eased my stress. It became clear, that her priority was to be of service- not to just get a job done. I really could go on and on. But coming home to calm cats, house intact, n the peace of mind she gave us each day was priceless to us. I can speak from experience of many failed pet sitter experiences, Alicia is the best! We will be a return customer!!!!”


“I recently moved from NY to KY and was in need of someone to help care for my four dogs. I had spoken to many people and wasn’t comfortable with anyone as I had my prior dog walker in Ny for over 10 years. I found Tanika and she and I hit it off right away: she was super accommodating to my ever changing schedule. I was nervous to have my one rescue dog meet anyone because he could be unpredictable. Tanika came armed with treats and was relaxed and so easy going with all the dogs that he took to her first!!!! Tanika had been above and beyond amazing . She helps with my dogs that have medical issues and she is always there when and if I need her. She takes care of my dogs as if they were her own and I’ve never had to worry about them when I’m away. She is an absolute god send and I highly recommend her!”

As a full-time sitter, your dog will get my full attention with frequent walks, fun adventures, and plenty of love and playtime in my yard. I’ll make sure your pup feels safe, happy, and right at home—because when they’re with me, they’re part of the family. As someone who stays home full-time and only works a few days a week, pet care naturally fits into my daily life. I have plenty of time, flexibility, and energy to give each pet personalized attention—whether that means morning walks, medication schedules, playtime in the yard, or just cozy companionship throughout the day. Your pet won’t be left alone or on a tight schedule—they’ll be part of a calm, loving home where their needs come first. When caring for pets in your home, I treat your space with respect and maintain your pet’s familiar environment to reduce stress.

Their schedule is totally accustomed to your needs and wants as their owners if you create a schedule for them, that would be wonderful and allow me to take care of your fur babies as you would yourself I do services in Lexington and Winchester, I’m currently working full-time with my hours ranging from 6 AM to 4 PM 5 days out of the week! Hours may vary depending on work Hi there! I absolutely love animals and enjoy taking care of them. I’ve been watching taking care of animals since I was a kid and I just love it! I don’t offer boardings at the moment but I would love to housesit or do drop-in visits for you!

About: I am a huge animal person! I have a special interest in feline care, and currently working with a bunch of feral community cats, as well as volunteering at animal shelters with both cats and dogs. I have grown up around all kinds of animals, and currently have 2 dogs and a cat. I’m currently a college student looking for employment, so my schedule is pretty open! I’m free to hang out with your pets any time right now! I have a fenced in yard, and multiple rooms to seperate and rotate if needed. My dogs are friendly, and my cat will keep her distance, likely staying in my room.

About: I have been taking care of animals for as long a so can remember. Growing up wi would always take care of neighbors cats while they were out of town, and now I dog sit, cat sit for family friends. I have also taken care of a wide variety of animals. I am an active person so I will walk your dog, run with your dog, take your dog to the dog park, or even go on hikes with your dog. Of course it is all up to you and I will not do anything the owners are not comfortable with. I love all kinds of animals and their safety is my top priority. I currently am a full time student so I am trying to prioritize my school over a part time job. So, while in school I decided that pet sitting and walking would be a job that could fit perfectly into my school schedule. I am free almost every day of the week depending on the week, and I am flexible with hours. Your pet and their safety is my biggest priority. Every pet varies on how they need to be taken care of as well as different safety measures needed to be taken. I am very flexible and a fast learner if the owners need specific things to be done I will meet all those needs. I cannot have pets stay at my own house because there is not a fence and there are a lot of people living in my house so the environment may not be the best for the animals because of all the noise.

About: I spent my college years working at kennels for cats and dogs. I’ve also been known to house sit for friends with multiple dogs, cats, bunnies, and chickens. I work part time at Frito Lay. I write full time (and take the occasional class). I travel a lot with work but keep a flexible schedule. I’m mostly interested in Drop In visits but will consider walks if a meet and greet goes well. Please don’t ask for an email or phone number outside Rover.

About: I have lived with a variety of animals my whole life, and began regularly taking care of family and friends' dog and cats when I was 17. I am very attentive to the needs and body language of both dogs and cats, and adapt well to their unique behaviors and routines. I have experience with aloof/aggressive pets, senior pets, and young pets 6 months or older. I only work a couple days a week so I am comfortable with providing constant care to pets who cannot be left alone. I like to operate on a schedule so I am good about keeping up with bathroom breaks, feeding times, medications, etc. I am consistently available to care for your pets Sunday-Wednesday, and may frequently be available Thursday-Saturday as well (I do my best to update my calendar appropriately as far in advance as possible). I will request information about your pet's personality and care requirements prior to meeting with you. I ask that you allow me to meet your pet outside under your supervision before the stay begins, for both mine and your pet's safety and comfort.

Terry A.

“Very knowledgeable and thorough. My cat was very unimpressed when we got home, simply because she was very relaxed and at peace being taken care of by T.J.”


Zoe B.
“Zoe is exceptionally kind and reliable. She always plays with our dogs and shows them lots of love. The thing I love most is Zoe sends us photos of our “kids” when she visits and cares for them. It helps alleviate any stress of us worrying how they are doing. Professional, reliable and kind!!!”

Keyara H.
“Keyara has been an incredible caregiver for my dog, Luna, and I can’t say enough about how thankful I am for her. From the moment they met, Luna took to her instantly — which says a lot, since she’s usually shy around new people. Keyara quickly learned Luna’s routine, from her favorite walking paths to how she likes her food prepared, and always made sure she felt comfortable, safe, and loved. She sent regular updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Her attention to detail, patience, and genuine love for animals truly set her apart. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my furry family member!”

Naomi H.
“I am honored to write this letter of recommendation for Naomi Harder, who has been providing exceptional care for my pets, including my new puppy Sadie and my senior dog, George (who unfortunately passed away recently). It takes a long time to find the right person to look after your canine companions, especially those with special needs. George required specialized attention due to diabetes and other health needs. Naomi has consistently demonstrated a unique combination of compassion, responsibility and expertise that made both Sadie and George an invaluable part of their routine. Caring for George was no small task. In addition to daily feeding and walks, George required insulin injections every 12 hours, special eye drops as he was blind, and careful monitoring to ensure his health remained stable. Naomi handled all of these responsibilities with remarkable diligence, skill and patience. She has demonstrated patience and kindness currently with a very active puppy, Sadie, who is active and constantly wants to walk and play. Beyond Naomi's technical expertise, she showed genuine concern over George and Sadie's well-being. She took the time to learn both of their specific needs and quirks, providing extra cuddles and attention to ease and discomfort, and maintained a calm and caring demeanor that gave me confidence my senior dog and my puppy were in the best possible hands. She also kept me informed with regular updates on their moods, appetite, behaviors, and sent a lot of photos (always a highlight while I was away). Beyond her exceptional care for my dogs, Naomi also took on the responsibility of watching my house while I was away, demonstrating the same level of professionalism and reliability. She ensured my home remained safe and well-maintained, handling tasks like collecting mail, watering plants, and keeping the house tidy. Her attention to detail and proactive communication gave me peace of mind, knowing both my pets and home were in capable hand. Naomi is not only an excellent caregiver but also a true professional. She is reliable, punctual and highly communicative, qualities that are essential when managing the needs of a senior pet with health challenges and an energetic young puppy. Her dedication to ensuring the happiness and well-being of my dogs is evident in every interaction, and her love for animals shines through in everything she does. I wholeheartedly recommend Naomi for any dog-sitting opportunities, particularly for pets young and with special needs. Her skills, kindness, and reliability makes her an outstanding choice for any pet owner seeking top-tier care.”


Christine R.
“Christine is an excellent furbaby caretaker! My pups absolutely adore her. They are always excited to see her walk through the door. You can rest assured that she will take the best care of your furry loved ones!”


Jason P.
“Jason has cared for our 3 dogs (retriever and two chihuahuas - 1 senior with certain challenges) for over 2 years as well as my mother’s dog, and my mother-in-law’s group of 6; he has done walks for us, pet sitting, and a few overnight care stays. He is attentive, follows instructions well, loves to play and engage with them, and overall is genuinely loving and intuitive with them as if they were his own! If you want to know your fur baby is in good hands with someone reliable, look no further!”
