About: I have always lived with pets in my household, and have always felt a certain empathy towards all animals. I currently have 3 of my own cats, but I treat every animal as if they were my own. I have 3 years of pet sitting experience, and also have experience working within a boarding facility as well as working with shelter animals. I helped care for homeless cats at a local nonprofit cat cafe for almost a year and a half. I am currently pursuing an education in veterinary science. Currently I am only available for drop ins or walks - I help run Lucky Cat Cafe and currently have a heavy workload and need to reserve time for my own cats. House sitting services wil reopen in April. When working with a dog or cat who is unfamiliar with me, I will respect their boundaries and work slowly to build trust while still providing them with the proper care they need while their human is not at home.
“Courtney is always available even when I ask with short notice! She always sends lots of pictures and my dogs are always clearly wore out after a walk with her!”
“Annie was great with Chester. She was there and took great care of our little pup on his walking needs. We heartily recommend her if you’re looking for someone who loves pets and will keep you updated on their status. Can’t wait to use her again!”
About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets.

I live in a home and have a fenced backyard.My pets are very friendly and will keep your dog company.In case your pets needs to be put in a kennel, I have that available, no matter the size! I am available for services everyday.I have a pretty open schedule so I am not strict about pickup or drop off hours. Regular daycare hours are until 8pm pickup, after that will be charged a small fee.Any questions you might have, please just let me know and we can definitely work something out! We give every pet love and care! I love to motivate your dog physically and mentally through one-on-one play, neighborhood walks, visit parks closeby, special trips to pet stores or even restaurants.
“Amy was great with my dog Bucky, we just met her today and she was very sweet to him..he is a bit of a puller but she handled him well and he came back tired and happy. She took lots of pictures and even brought water for him. Will definitely book more walks with her.!”
About: I have experience fostering for the humane society. I have a German shepherd at home and used to own a Siberian husky. I have fostered both puppies and kittens I work from home full-time so I can give your pet plenty of potty breaks and give them a walk on my lunch if needed I have a fenced in yard that your dog can play in. I also live close to a park that we can go to. I have a friendly German shepherd who likes to play with other dogs. I will treat your pet like they are my own and let them make themselves at home.
“The absolute best! Works well with our dog & he absolutely loves her!”
About: I am a dog mom to two dachshunds named Bexley and Maeve. Bexley and Maeve love to have visitors to share their toys and treats with. We live in a townhouse that has access to a fenced in backyard and a fenced in dog park. We also love to drive 2 minutes down the road for a long walk at Highview Park. I do work from home, so I can give your furchild all the attention he/she wants or needs, which is why I only take 1-3 small dogs at a time. Should you decide to pick our home for your furchild's stay, you can expect frequent updates with photos and/or videos. Overall, my goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furchild is well loved while you are away. 🩷 I work from home which gives me the ability to provide constant attention and care. My work hours allow me to prioritize exercise and extra cuddles on the couch. I have a fenced in backyard that has a doggy door for easy access. We like to take walks 3 times a day if weather permits. If the weather is bad, we love to play tag and chase balls inside. To wind down in the evening, we love to snuggle on the couch and watch movies. Overnight, the dogs are permitted to sleep in the bed.
About: *RESPONSE TIME/RATE INACCURATE, Please feel free to reach out! I will get back to you within 24 hours :)* Hi there! My name is Keri, and I'm excited to offer my services as a pet sitter through Rover. As someone with a passion for animal care, I'm thrilled to be able to use my skills and experience to help keep your furry friends happy and healthy while you're away. As a veterinary technician with experience working in spay and neuter clinics, I've gained a wealth of knowledge about animal health and behavior. I've worked with cats of every temperament and need level, I'm confident in my ability to care for your pets, no matter what their needs may be. I understand that medical care can be a source of stress for both pets and their owners, so I'll do everything I can to make the process as smooth and easy as possible. At home, I have four cats of my own who are my pride and joy. They're each unique and have their own personalities, so I know just how important it is to treat each animal as an individual. Whether your pet is shy and reserved or outgoing and energetic, I'll work to create a comfortable and safe environment that meets their needs. In my current role at the Kentucky Humane Society, I work to help the community with a variety of issues ranging from financial need for vet care or minor behavioral issues from their pets! Overall, I'm committed to providing the best possible care for your pets while you're away. I'll treat them as if they were my own and make sure they feel loved and cared for at all times. Thank you for considering me for your pet sitting needs, and I look forward to meeting you and your furry friends soon! 2024 NOTE: Response time and response percentage are bugged on my account! I respond to ALL messages as soon as I am available! My schedule is very flexible so I’m available nearly any day or time that is needed! I can make accommodations for any timed feedings/medications as well. For house sitting, I am unable to stay overnight but I am available for as long as you need during the daytime! My cats are indoor only, but because of this I emphasize that they get exercise through playtime everyday. We have special feeding mats to ensure they don’t eat too quickly or feel under stimulated, as well as low entry litter boxes throughout the apartment. Two of my cats are very anxious due to experience prior to adoption, so we try our very best to provide them with many hiding places and a calm environment. I would be more than willing to ensure the same level of care is provided for any of your animals, if not above and beyond this. I know the anxiety of leaving pets with someone, and would hope you could feel entirely secure in the experience with me!
About: I have had dogs my whole life ❤️I have been with Rover for many years and have loved helping families and making them feel comfortable when having to leave their babies. I am home full time and my husband also works from home. My 13 year old son Loves to play fetch with the dogs outside! I am on Rover to make money to fund our mission trip to Honduras every year, We go to Copan Honduras where we get to love on the people and share the gospel to them! So if you pick me to keep your babies you are also helping to fund mission trips! I am home full time and husband works from home. Someone is always home with the dogs. I want you to feel totally safe and worry free leaving your dog with me! I have a fully fenced in backyard. I love taking them on walks also so we both get exercise 😀 we can also use a crate if you are comfortable and want to bring your own.
“Liz was excellent with Sophie. She took multiple pictures, was flexible, and gave relevant information in her notes. She was by far my favorite Rover person and I would strongly recommend her. My Sophie really like her a lot!”
About: I truly love all animals and have the skills to care for any pet, whether you have a furbaby that needs special care or an exotic pet. From the family dog to my aunt's 8 cats and horseback riding to fully planted fishtanks and my pet rabbit and snake, I love every opportunity to make a new furry (or scaley) friend. ¡Hablo español básico! Me encantaría una oportunidad para practicar el español y ayudarte con tus mascotas al mismo tiempo. I work an editing job from my laptop, so I can make anything fit into my schedule. For housesitting, I'd prefer not to stay overnight; however, I know that some pets need that special care and would love to discuss this with you. I understand that each pet and their owner have a unique lifestyle and training, and I will follow whatever directions and care is needed. I highly train and socialize my pets. Nugget, my rabbit, is free roam and litter trained and knows various tricks!
“Amanda was a God send! Even when my wrong address was in the system and she went to that house first, she went back to our ACTUAL house to take care of our girls. We were so thankful!”
About: I've taken care of animals my whole life. Outside of my own family pets I have worked as a vet tech for several years, fostered animals, and been the trusted sitter for many a friend. I can't wait to meet and love on your fur babies! I work part time remotely so I can house sit in your home 24/7 and I am available for walks and drop ins most days of the week. When in house sitting I always make sure to get a list of rules for the fur babies and the house to make sure I don't stray from their routine and am respectful of all needs and wishes. I make sure everyone gets plenty of love, exercise, potty breaks, and TREATS! I make sure you get multiple photo updates of your babies while you are gone to keep your mind at ease.
