“Rebecca was fabulous! Agreed to dog sit for us at the very last minute when our booked dog sitter forgot and wasn’t home. Took such good care of our girl Lily. Gave her constant attention. Even took her shopping to Lowe’s. She had toys and other friendly dogs for Lily to play with. Lily was a happy and tired dog at the end of the day. Meanwhile, we were able to explore caves and have lunch and dinner without worrying about Lily. Even got pictures periodically and a cute video. Would definitely use Rebecca again!”
About: Loving and caring for pets has been a part of my entire life. At a young age I started caring for my neighbor's pets while they were gone, helping lost dogs find their way back home, and training my own dogs. I started volunteering at my local shelter with basic care and also taking dogs off site for some fun outside of the shelter setting- walking, rollerblading for more active dogs, or just hanging out in the yard and working on training commands. I do it all for the love of pets! I currently make my own schedule with the school district working with special needs students, so I have a pretty flexible schedule aside from school drop off and pick up for my children. I'm also available weekends and evenings. Going for the day to Mammoth National Park? Don’t want to leave your pet alone in a rental or hotel? Perfect! I’m on right on your way! Let me keep your pet company and safe while you enjoy all things Mammoth! I have a fenced (4.5’), grassy yard with elevated and covered porch. I do have my own pets so their safety and your pup's safety is of the most importance to me. My pups do not have free range of my home. With a spare room and tall gates I am able to keep separation if desired. I am also able to crate your pup if requested.
“Kayla and her husband are the absolute best!!! They loved our dogs like their own and our dogs fell in love with them immediately!!! They sent daily pics and videos and the joy on our 4 dog’s faces were pure joy. They totally felt at home. And to open their home during Christmas was such a blessing! Would absolutely use them from now on. 🙏”
“Oo Meh was the best sitter I have ever met. She was so kind to us and made sure that we were comfortable with her abilities. She took great care of our two cats during our anniversary vacation. Every day she sent updates as requested and made sure they were well taken care of. My cats were even upset leaving her presence, thats how I know she poured in great care and effort into our kids. If you book with Oo Meh, just know you will be in great hands!!! We Will definitely book with her for our future planned trips!”
“Always a great experience with Say. She always gives daily pictures and videos of our dogs while they stay with her. She treats them like her own and they always come back to us happy and energetic and looking like they loved their stay and never wanting to leave.”
About: What sets me apart is my hands on animal care experience and the amount of love I put into every pet I care for! 🐾 I have experience working in animal welfare and veterinary care, fostering animals, bottle-feeding babies, administering medications, and caring for pets with different personalities and needs. From energetic puppies who need patience and consistency to senior pets who need a little extra TLC, I’m comfortable adjusting my care to what each animal needs. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I never take that responsibility lightly. I focus on keeping their routines consistent, making them feel safe and comfortable, and keeping you updated while you’re away. As a pet parent myself, I understand that your pets aren’t just animals, they’re family! ❤️ Animals are already a huge part of my everyday life! Between caring for my own pets, my experience in animal welfare, and pet sitting, taking care of animals is something that comes naturally to me. I plan my schedule around my responsibilities to make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, love, exercise, and care. I’m big on keeping pets on their normal routines as much as possible so they feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. 🐾❤️ I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs and their owner’s instructions. In a client’s home, I do my best to keep their pets on their normal routines, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medications, and plenty of affection. I also make sure they have a clean, comfortable environment and send updates and pictures so you can feel at ease while you’re away! When caring for pets in my own home, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and supervision while making sure introductions and interactions are handled appropriately. I have experience with dogs of different sizes and personalities, cats, puppies, senior pets, and animals who need a little extra patience or medical care. My goal is always to make your pets feel loved, safe, and right at home! 🐾❤️

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 Cooktown home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Cooktown.
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 Cooktown 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 Rover Guarantee, 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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.
