About: Hello! Growing up with dogs, cows, cats, and horses, animals have been a special part of my life that I hope to share with you! Now we have a few funny chickens with big personalities and a Doodle. I walk the dog everyday without headphones. Please let me know if that is also your preference. Being a doodle owner is new to me so over the past couple of years, I’ve enjoyed reading trainers’ books and watched tv shows about dogs as well. If you let know, I can bring your trash bin up from the street, scoot your deliveries out of sight, and water flowers while I’m visiting with your pet. Thanks for taking a look! I hope to meet your pet soon! I’m a homeschooling mom who dreams of taking the family to Rome when the oldest is a senior. Sharing my time with your pet will add to our savings jar and bring me time outside and fun! I am available for a break to walk or check on your pet most of the time. Wednesdays in the afternoon, we are scheduled for an activity. Occasionally we will have an activity booked in advance but most of the time, my schedule can fluctuate around times and days that are convenient for you. At home, we have a fenced in yard where our dog watches over the chickens while they spend some time outside the coop. I am an expert at watching for hawks, so, Little Dogs, fear not! Our animals are well cared for, plenty of access to water, and I even make the dog’s food. Our pet is wheat free. Please let me know if your dog has allergies also.

About: Hi! I’m deaf, I have a new cochlear implant. I can read lips and signs/speak. I’ve been taking care of my neighbor’s cats while they were on their trip! I’ve feed them, played with them. I’ve cleaned the litter box for a year or so. In the past summer, I’ve stayed the nights and feed the dogs and took them for walks, played with them. I’ve experienced with adult cats and adults/senior dogs. I’m a college student and I’m available for weekdays, weekends, I can stayed the nights one of those days if you planned on going a trip for weeks! I’ll be happily to take care of your pets while you're gone! I have a fenced yard and have two dogs to keep your pet company. I can crate your pet if needed. If something happens, I will let you know and asked what I can do for pets safety. I can take them out for walk or backyard to cool off then give them a treats if they are doing well.

“Booked Courtney at the very last minute for a 1 hr walk for the first time and she was able to accommodate and get my boys. They enjoyed their time and she cared enough to towel dry them after their walk as it was raining. Booked again for boarding and she was always informative, reached out with any questions to make sure she provided the best care and daily updates with pictures etc. she made sure they got comfortable being in a new space as well. Xoxo”


About: I know what it is like to worry about your pet while you are away so I treat every pet like my own and will update you with plenty of photos! I love dogs/cats and am very patient with them when they need it. I have had a dog for 9 years now and I occasionally pet sit for family/friends! I currently volunteer for Adopt Me Bluegrass and I participated in the “Check Me Out” Program several times at the Humane Society in Lexington (taking dogs out for the day to the park). I do work full time during the week but am available before work, for a mid-day check in, and after work as well! I also can take your dog for a walk at the park during the week after work or any time on the weekends! In your home, I will make sure to follow your pet’s routine with meals, walks, playtime, and anything else necessary. I will also keep your home clean!

“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!”


“Sarah was a super sitter/walker for my little Biscuit. He loved playing with her and her daughters. She informed me about every step they took with messages and pictures. I highly recommend her and I will definitely book her again soon.”


“Annie is the most incredible dog sitter/dog walker, etc. Blue is so happy to see her every time she visits and I know he is in the best possible hands. I trust her entirely!!”


About: 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! 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’ve owned a dog all of my adult life. I can’t imagine life without having to pick up dog poop daily. :) I was able to crate/potty train our puppy in less than a week! I’m also able to help train with basic commands. Your furry, cuddly love bug will be in good hands. I am a stay at home mom, so I am free anytime to let your fur babies out, take them for a walk, replenish their food and water and give extra cuddles while you’re away. I have a 5 and 3 year old who love our dog. They are very gentle with their furry sibling. Your pet will feel safe and have another furry playmate to play with. I can send pictures once a day so you don’t have to miss your baby too much.

About: I’ve had over 20 pets growing up, from dogs, hamsters, ferrets, you name it. I have lots of experience working with animals, including lots of training caring for animals and building fast-strong bonds. Im an educator with early mornings that allow me ample time in the early afternoons and evenings to care for you pet. My schedule is pretty flexible and able to fit around your pet sitting needs when giving proper notice. I can also be available for quick dog walks and check ins everyday of the week. I have my own dog, Onyx who is able to roam free unless I leave the house and will offer the same freedom to your dog. We live in a great neighborhood with other friendly pet owners and provide a great route for nice long walks to enjoy the weather. I can also crate or fence in your pet if needed as well.

About: I’ve always had a soft spot for animals. Since I was little, I’ve loved spending time with dogs—walking them, cuddling, playing, and just making them feel happy and safe. I may not have pets of my own right now, but that just means I’ll pour all my love and attention into yours. Caring for them truly makes my day brighter I currently work part-time and have a very flexible schedule. I’m available in the mornings and afternoons, both on weekdays and weekends. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, or boarding, I’ll make sure they get the care and attention they deserve! I live in a clean, pet-friendly apartment with plenty of space for your pup to relax and feel at home. I don’t have any pets of my own, so your dog will get my full attention. I follow each pet parent’s instructions carefully and make sure your furry friend feels safe, comfortable, and loved throughout their stay.

About: Hello! I'm a paramedic in need of a fun side-hustle. I was also a veterinary technician for a few years. Lets see if I can help you and your fur-baby out! :) I've had dogs, cats, and ferrets :) I don't have pets currently due to my lifestyle. I work quite a bit, but I miss having pets around often. <3 I live in an RV, so I don't have pets currently and I don't think it would be a good idea to have client's pets there due to the small space. In client's homes; a clear list of routines (feedings, outside time, etc), emergency info, and places that are off-limits to their pets would be great :)

About: I’ve been taking care of my neighbors dogs since I was about 11 or 12. At first they had two senior dogs who unfortunately ended up passing. However, now I also have experience with senior & puppy care due to them getting a puppy soon after! I absolutely love meeting new animals and just love animals period. I’m not doing this more so for the experience of having a dog once I am old enough and stable enough too on my own. However I have grown up my entire life around dogs and already know pretty much everything, you learn something new every day because just like humans, not all dogs are the same. I do work in a Salon Tuesday through Friday from 9-7pm. I have alternating Saturdays off but if I do work a Saturday it is just a 11-3pm. I am an early bird very naturally so it’s not hard for me to wake up before work and take care of your pup. I treat them like humans. A lot of people forget animals have emotions aswell. This might sound crazy, but I talk to them as if they can respond to me! I put their needs first!

Allison C.
“Allie recently watched our family dog while I was away on vacation and it was a great experience for both. She made the dog feel at ease while we were away with daily walks and with our permission, a couple long walks at a nearby park. Upon our return, both our little dog and Allie were sad to part ways. Allie was ready to keep her another week if we would have let her. She is great with pets (dogs and cats) in showing plenty of love and affection and if needed, a reasonable amount of discipline to ensure no bad habits are gained. I recommend her with no hesitation.”

Melissa B.
“Melissa is truly one of a kind when it comes to caring for pets. From the moment she meets an animal, her love and compassion shine through. She took care of my pet as if it were her own—making sure they were not only safe and well-fed but also happy, loved, and comforted. Her attention to detail, patience, and genuine affection for animals gave me total peace of mind. I always know my pet is in the best hands with Melissa. Anyone would be lucky to have her as their pet caregiver.”


Lindsey B.
“Lindsey is truly one of the most trustworthy and compassionate people I know when it comes to animals. She’s had a lifelong love for them, and it shows in everything she does, from her experience as a vet tech to the way she cares for her own pets like family. Whenever I need help or advice with my animals, she’s the first person I call. Her knowledge, calm presence, and genuine passion always make me and my pets feel at ease. The fact that she’s also studying to become a vet just speaks to her dedication. If you’re looking for someone who will love and care for your pets like her own, Lindsey is the one. I wouldn’t trust anyone else more.”


Kyleigh M.
“Kyleigh has been watching our family dogs for over 10 years! She treats them like they are her own and goes above and beyond when caring for them. Kyleigh is considerate and attentive when watching our dogs and the dog LOVE HER. She plays with them and takes them on walks and just relaxes on the couch with them! She is incredible and I am so thankful that all three of our pups have been taken care of by Kyleigh.”
