“Nancy is just a wonderful dog sitter. Our 4 month old dog Lex enjoyed it. She has a fenced backyard which was good for Lex. Out of all the times we have had a rover sitter in Lexington - Nancy was the best! We are definitely bringing Lex back to Nancy when we are out of town. Both my husband and I felt relaxed during our trip knowing that Lex was in good hands. Nancy is also a pet trainer - which is another advantage. Thank you so much, Nancy! You were awesome!”


“Amber was great to work with and quick to respond, communicate, and make me feel comfortable leaving my dog there. She made sure my dog was taken care of in the best possible way and sent me daily updates and pictures. I would highly recommend!”


“Gabrielle was amazing with our little Izzy. She was treated just like family and got to have great socialization with their dogs and cats! I loved the videos that she sent us of Izzy having fun playing with them. I most certainly recommend leaving your pet with her! I most definitely will be using her again!”


“Beth was so responsive and provided great detail into any message she sent regarding Ivan. I never once had to message her first to ask how he was doing. She made sure to send me lots of messages and lots of photos and I felt very comfortable leaving Ivan in her care. would highly recommend her I cannot say enough good things.”


“Stephan and Angela kept our Tula for 4 days and took very good care of her. Every picture they sent to us assured us that Tula was having a great time. Would absolutely recommend them.”


“Ashley was great with our little buddy. Rocket and her daughter got to be best buds. She was great to send photos to make us feel better. He had a great time. Will definitely use her again. Thanks so much.”


“Courtney was FANTASTIC!!! This was a last minute book and she was so understanding and ready to hop in and help. I had a lot of questions since this was my first time leaving my doodles and she was quick to respond and made me feel so confident that my boys would be happy and well taken care of. She sent pictures and updates of them during their stay and kept me updated of their play and food intake. They were worn out Sunday, so I know they had a great time with plenty of exercise. I HIGHLY recommend and will use again in the future! 😊”


“Sharon was absolutely fantastic with our goldendoodle! This was our first time using Rover and the experience couldn't have gone any better. Sharon eased our worries with consistent communication, daily photos and videos. She promptly replied to our messages and questions. We were excited to receive daily photos and updates while on vacation. Most importantly, our fur baby was in a safe, calm and loving environment which enabled us to enjoy our vacation. Thank you Sharon for ensuring our baby was happy. We will definitely be boarding Beau with you in the future!”


“Wonderful family who took great care of our dog! We would definitely use them again. They took time beforehand to make sure they knew what he would need and sent a photo and update each day. The boys were so excited to help take care of him. We could tell that our dog had been very happy and comfortable in their home when we picked him up.”


“We left our dogs with Jared & Waverly for 9 days while we went on vacation. We’d never left them that long and were concerned about it but they did great. We loved getting pictures throughout the day so we could see how they were doing. When our travel home got interrupted, they were flexible and accommodating. We’ll definitely use them again!”


“Our two dogs were in good hands with Lauren & Joseph. We needed boarding while the family went on a Spring Break trip, and we felt reassured by the daily photos and updates we received from Lauren.”


About: I have experience with all types of dogs from various backgrounds. I got into fostering with my wife a few years ago. I have plenty of experience with dogs who need medication administration, including injections and am conscious that some need to stick to a specific food. I want to make this a place a home away from home for your pup because that’s what they deserve when they’re away from the people they love the most! My schedule is flexible. A typical routine is to have morning, afternoon, evening and bedtime potty breaks and mealtime at breakfast and dinner. The only conflict may be that we attend church Sunday mornings. I have a fenced yard and a playful pup to keep your fur baby entertained. If crating is part of your dog’s routine, please provide the crate, as I do not crate my dog. We do bark box, so no need to bring toys. I do recommend something that smells like home, especially for the first visit, and if your dog has separation anxiety. Please don’t bring any sentimental toys or bones as it can cause resource guarding and potential conflict. All dogs are fed separately at mealtime. I cannot watch unfixed dogs (male or female) past 1 year old due to behavioral issues. If we are away from the house, dogs are kept in the playroom so they have room to roam. I have a ring camera to be able to check in if needed. Please reach out for any further questions so I may provide clarification!

“Our dog Caddie had a great, long stay with Jim! We could tell she was so relaxed and enjoyed playing with the other dogs. Jim sent lots of pics for updates. We definitely recommend Jim and will use him again in the future!”


“Stephanie and her family made my 14 year old chihuahua feel so loved and welcomed during her stay. I had such a great experience from the moment I messaged her, fast responses, she let me see her house before I agreed to book, and she definitely cares for your furr baby like if it’s where one of her own. I will 100% be using Stephanie in the future and would recommend her to anyone on this app. Thank you Stephanie!”
