About: I have always loved animals. Growing up I have always had dogs and cat. I have trained puppies and handled potty training. I have also dealt with senior dogs who are blind and deaf that take more care . I will always give the best care possible because I have been in many situations. I go to EKU getting a degree in Animal Science as well in the Pre-vet program. I am learning so much about animal health and welfare. I am currently working part-time in the summer, weekends at a Kentucky sports store. I am able to work part-time during the week. When it is not summer I go to EKU getting a degree in animal science so getting experience with different animals in different situations is where I want to be! I have a fenced in backyard that has a good amount of running room. I have multiple toys that throw balls and can keep dogs with energy happy. I also have a deck to relax on while wanting to sun bathe. I have a crate if needed and multiple rooms to have their own space.

“Virginia is conscientious, communicative, and took great care of our dogs. Highly recommended!”


“Allie helped me out last minute on a holiday weekend and I am so grateful! She was polite and professional and easy to communicate with. I would definitely have her let Bear out again in the future.”


About: I’ve been pet sitting for years with different size dogs and multiple dogs at a time; I have loved dogs since a young age and carry it with me always! I am trying to grow my pet care sitting, so I have most all day, everyday open to care for any size or kind of dog breed I live in an apartment but have watched multiple dogs at time, large and small breeds…also have watched them in their home and let them out during the day! I provide the most comfortable and happy atmosphere for the animal!

“"We were fortunate to have Carolyn as our neighbor, and she has been wonderful at looking after our pets when we're away. She has always been very reliable and treats our pets as if they were her own. I highly recommend her if you need someone to watch your pets!"”
Garden Springs pet parents share their Rover experiences
Jubilee did a great job with my kittens. She was actively in contact with me throughout my trip, and made sure to take lots of pictures to share. Definitely recommend!

She is amazing, took care of our cat for almost a month and we found him well and happy. She sent so many pics daily that we were able to be at peace too

Ashleigh is fantastic! She was super helpful and understanding of any and all quirks and gave me significant peace of mind while I was out of town. She also provided great visit summaries and pictures! I will definitely book her again when I need someone to watch my kitties!

Brittany has been amazing. My dog is super stubborn and timid and he wouldn’t go out, and then the next day he finally warmed up to her and he let her take him out. She sends pics, and great updates. Very thankful for her! Highly recommend

Kimee is amazing. I knew I would love her the first time I talked to her about meeting and taking care of Roo. She was great at communicating and always made me feel reassured Roo was taken care of. She would send lots of pictures and updates when she took care of her. I would recommend her to anyone. She is great.

Angelina is great with my pets, communicates well, arrives and leaves on time, and overall, very easy to work with. Highly recommend!

Buddy, Belle, and I are so blessed to have had Brooke check in while I was away. From the moment she stepped in the door for our meet and greet, we felt comfortable and safe with Brooke. I appreciate the pictures she took during her visits. It was evident that Buddy and Belle were having fun with Brooke and were well cared for. They even let the cat out of the bag when I returned and told me that Brooke is AWESOME and they would love to have her back the next time I have to go away. When my cats talk, I listen! Thank you, Brooke, for the TLC you gave my fur babies; it meant the world to us.

ReeCee immediately felt comfortable with Alexus. Alexus came as agreed. She provided pictures of her walking and playing with my pup. She gave me updates as to eating, snacking, etc. Alexus agreed to be available for another visit should we not get home at the planned time. All was good when we arrived. ReeCee was very happy. Thank you, Alexus.

Faith was a highly reliable sitter for my cat and followed all instructions well. She made sure my cat was happy and kept me updated with informative notes and pictures.

Kathy was wonderful! Oliver’s gastric issues came back while we were gone (vomiting only). She kept us informed and cleaned up his “deposits.” Would definitely use her again.

Bailey was wonderful and the best experience we've had on Rover. From the time we met her, we were comfortable knowing our Leo (our dog) was in good hands, and we could tell that she cared for Leo and that Leo liked her back. She was very responsive and gave us frequent updates and pictures.

Wow. Jade went above and beyond for my cat. I told Jade before she watched my cat, Sister, that I was nervous because she’s such an anxious cat and I didn’t want things to be too difficult. Fret not. I come home to see my cat out in the living room- basking in the sun, not a care in the world. She wasn’t hiding like she usually does when new people are around, no, she was purring and relaxed. When I went to pet Sister, I made a crazy discovery. Her nails? Trimmed. Her hair? Washed. Not only that, I had told Jade not to worry about the litter box since I wouldn’t be gone for long. And what did Jade do? She deep cleaned it. Deep cleaned my cat’s litter box just because. I mean come on. Talk about a cat sitter! I could not recommend this girl more. She’s thoughtful, she’s kind, she’s an animal whisperer. Just when you think things couldn’t be better, Jade says just wait. 5 stars and a happy cat waiting for Jade’s return.

I greatly appreciate Erin for checking in on my girls while I was away. They enjoyed seeing her and getting the chance to meet someone new. I appreciate that she was able to do check ins on them, even though it was last minute. So thankful and appreciative!

Hayden did a wonderful job looking after my middle-aged cat Ferox!!! Including giving him insulin injections 🙌 -- she is a star!

Tyler was great with our very energetic puppy! He sent us pics and videos everyday that he visited our dog. He seems to genuinely like animals and is very good communicating with us. We will use his services again.

Emily took great care of our two house rabbits while we were away. Being exotic animals, they're a little different than dogs/cats, but Emily followed all the directions to a T. Would highly recommend Emily!

Both dogs loved Mia! Zoe’s usually really shy and selective about people but warmed up to Mia fast and Bodhi seemed to calm down a lot. Would definitely want Mia to watch them again. She is amazing!

Bailey is an amazing sitter who I have used several times for my 13 year old Border Collie. She is very communicative and great with Gracie (my dog). 10/10 would recommend!
