About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 13 from friends and family, I’ve always loved dogs, but my parents weren’t really a fan of them, now that I move in to my own house, that has plenty of space for dogs to run and play I’d love to take care of your pets as if they were my own I’m a stay at home mom of 2 girls and 1 baby boy, I’m all day at home almost every single day of the week I have a fenced yard, my backyard it’s kind of unusual, it’s like a double fenced yard, one for my house and behind that is another fenced yard for my husbands horses, so if you’d like your dog to have some kind of farm experience they can be on both yards, but if you preferred for your dog to stay away from the horses that can be too
“Alexis was very prompt for every service. She exceeded our expectation when it came to keeping the puppies pen clean and feeding them. Alexis kept us up to date with her service and the condition of each puppy. The pictures were valuable to our comfort level while away from the home. Would definitely hire Alexis again.”
“Marilyn was such an amazing pet sitter! She sent me the sweetest pictures of my cat while we were away and I could tell my cat really enjoyed her visits! My cat is very shy, so it was nice to see how Marilyn made an effort to connect with her and my cat bonded with her. She also checked in on my cat another day after our flight got delayed. I would definately recommend!!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for pets since I was 7 years old. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes and personalities, from tiny pups to giant breeds. And I’m comfortable handling energetic, strong, and high-maintenance dogs as well. I understand that every pet has their own routine, needs, and quirks, and I always strive to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet needs long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a calm and dependable presence, I’m happy to help! I’ll treat your pets like family and make sure they get the care, attention, and love they deserve. I currently work part time and have a new baby, but I am available Thursday-Sunday anytime before 2pm! If a day is needed outside those days and hours it will depend on if I have child care available! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress free as possible. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions closely while making sure each pet gets plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I respect your home and your pet’s space, keep things clean and tidy, and always prioritize safety and comfort. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pets are happy and well cared for while you’re away!

About: I was a dog walker before I got hired at a pet store. My first dog was a lab pit mix, my second a Belgian Shepherd, and now I have my own pit mix. I have sat for family members with Chihuahuas and dachshunds. I am great with any size dog and have never met a pet I didn't love. I am familiar with many training tools, dietary needs and distributing medication. I have owned a couple dogs with severe allergies and sensitivities. I also have experience with exotic pets including ferrets. I care for my dog 24/7 including daily walks and a good amount of play time. I work from home as a counselor and create my own schedule so have plenty of time to tend to your pets. I have a fenced yard and a friendly pup that loves other dogs. She would be great company or be able to be kept separate depending on your pets needs
About: I grew up with many animals at my home. I have taken care of plenty animals for friends and families and provided great care to them. I go to school Monday-Wednesday from 8-12 and Thursday from 7-3. I am available on those days after school. I am also available Friday-Sunday all day! I am not able to care for pets in my home but for clients homes, I will feed, walk, bathe, and play with the pets. I also love giving lots of cuddles!
“Merit is very attentive to help care for our 2 cats. We receive pictures each day. She checks to make sure there is plenty of water. The kitty litter box is cleaned everyday. The kitchen sink is left clean and all soiled dishes are on laced in the dishwasher. Thank you Merit!!!”
“Jillian was my saving grace!! I had planned to leave my old mastiff at the boarders when I went out of town but he didn’t like his meet and greet at all! So I thankfully discovered Rover and Jillian. I was able to leave him at home where he’s most comfortable. Jillian and Otis got along great. She gave him his daily meds and treats and even sent me pics. I will definitely use her again and highly recommend her!”
About: I own a 6 year old 120lbs German Shepherd/Great Pyrenees mix and happily trained him myself! I am experienced with all sized dogs, but the large breeds are definitely my favorite! I am a supporter of the military and disabled veterans. I moved here from KY and my dog and I enjoy long hikes and camping trips. I am pretty available right now as I do not work full-time. I’d love to care for your pet(s) on normal days or even during emergencies. I try to be as reasonable and negotiable as possible with prices, so please reach out with any questions! In any clients home, my top priorities are respect and safety. Giving me access to your home is a lot of trust, so know that it does not go unseen. I treat anybody’s property and pets as if they were my own. Feel free to record and use Ring, Furbo, etc!

“Amanda is phenomenal. From communication to care, she is exceptional. She took extra time to meet our furry family before we left and assure that any special needs were met. She went above to provide both love and play. We are truly grateful for her care!”
“Thank you so much for coming in playing interacting and feeding our babies while we were gone tonight. I believe they enjoyed it thank you for the spin and speak lesson that was cute as I watched it on the camera. He did well he's very smart that is not something we have worked on. Thank you for coming with a very short notice. I'm sure they will look forward to more adventures with you.”
About: Hi, I'm Gessy! I have several years of experience caring for both cats and dogs, especially pit bulls and small breeds. I've done pet sitting, walking, feeding, playtime, and even given medications when needed. I treat every pet like family-gentle, patient, and dependable. Whether it's for a weekend or longer, your pets will be safe, happy and love with me and my family. I am currently a stay home mom, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for boarding on weeks days. I do not have a fence yard i have a friendly dog to keep your fur baby company, and I can easily crate your dog if needed.
About: I’ve taken care of family and friends dogs over time with love and care. From small to large dogs, I’ve gotten very well with them all. Currently I’m an upcoming artist which means I work from home and I have a flexible schedule. YI’m available from 8am to 10pm through Monday to Sunday. At home I have a un fenced yard with wide space for the dogs can play and run around. While in other clients homes I’d ask for specific instructions so the dog feels at home with me.
About: At 28 Years Old, I have nearly always had a dog living with me. 8 dogs have been apart of my life in the past and currently 4 reside in our large loving home. Nearly every single one of my dogs have been rescued and cared for, where I try my best to change my own routine to better fit their needs rather than trying to change them to fit my own. In the past years I have boarded relatives' dogs at my own home and would like to continue helping dog parents with any dog care they might need. Because I've had so many dogs in my life, I have had to experience both the beginning and end of their lives. I especially enjoy giving extra care to senior dogs to make sure they are most comfortable in the golden age of their lives. I am working only part time so I have plenty of time to give your dogs as little or as much attention as you need. My schedule is extremely flexible. Weekends or Weekdays are perfect for me. My home sits on a hilly and forested 3 acres, with fenced in portions as well as a long circular driveway perfect for walks! In the fenced area, there is a pool perfect for any water loving dog in the summer! There is also an enclosed run of chickens that are unbothered by any rambunctious and curious dogs. Currently we have 4 dogs, one an outdoor Rottweiler dog that is all too happy to play with another dog, but with her own separated fenced in area. We have 4 indoor dogs, 2 Rat Terriers and 2 Chihuahua. All of them have shown friendly tendencies to unfamiliar dogs of similar size. They have had mixed feelings over larger dogs and I know that not all dogs enjoy the company of others. Should your own dog be more comfortable being alone and dislike other dogs, our house is set up in a way that your own dog can have their own private space away from my dogs and still get whatever attention is needed while still allowing my own dogs ample space.
About: I will love your dog like its my own. Your dog is going to be very happy when you come back to get the dog. Caring for your dog is going to be more important than anything. My pet caring experience was fun and the dog had fun while he was over here.I love animals and i will treat them with kindness,and respect. Your dog would have the time of their life with me.Some things we would do is play outside, go for a walk, chill in the house, and just enjoy each other company.I like knowing that we people leave their dogs with me they don't have to worry about their dogs being mistreated or hurt with me they will only be cared for
Covington dog parents share their Rover experiences
Very responsible and took great care of our house FULL of pets. He handled the challenge of taking care of 1 scaredy cat and 4 dogs with various unique needs (including one dog that is blind and diabetic, requiring insulin shots after every meal). Very impressive! We came home to well loved and cared for pets. We will be calling him first for all of our pet sitting!
