About: I have caring for dogs for over 6 years, since I was a child. I grew up with 4 dogs in my family’s household so I am very used to dogs running around. I’m going to treat your fur babies as if they were my own with lots of love and treats. I don’t have a fenced yard, but I will take your animals on nice long walks and they will get the chance to run and play in a dog park. I work 5-8 hours a day and am home almost all days on Saturday’s and Can give your fur baby all the attention they need. Please tell me know if your animal has any special requirements and I’ll be happy to do so.

About: I've had a fur baby in my arms since I was a child. Not only did I raise my own, but I've kept my friends, my co-workers and my son's dogs while they were out of town, for a day, a week and sometimes longer. I cared for my son's senior boy while he worked, and then he brought the newest baby to me everyday she when she was a puppy, so she wasn't home alone and I could potty train her with love. I raised our German shepherd with my sons from the time she and my youngest were both just 8 weeks old. When Libby was almost 18 yo we had to have our vet assist her in crossing the rainbow bridge. From there I got my first tiny dog, a little boy named Dexter, Chihuahua 6.6 lbs, and then shortly after I got Danika, Chihuahua 5.5 lbs. They went everywhere with me, vacations, nail salon, shopping. They had a purse they loved to jump right in and 2 booster seats so they were secured safely in my car. I lost Dexter to heart disease at 14 yo and poor little Danika was lost without him. I adopted Lucylle, Chihuahua 6 lbs, she was 2 yo. She was left at the vet by her previous family, that never came back to get her. She was very aggressive towards everyone in the beginning and it took me 3 months of patience and love to bring her out of it. By that time her and Danika were best friends, and loving companions, of course they went everywhere with me. We lost Danika just few months ago, she was 16 yo. That's when I decided to start my journey with Rover, to bring some added joy into mine and Lucylle's life and give other fur babies a safe and loving place to visit when family were away. I retired 04-2024, Lucylle and I have plenty of time on our hands. I bought a patio home, with a nice fenced back yard, where I sit in the morning or anytime during the day/evening and watch Lucylle go out and do her business or just play. We take walks around the neighborhood or down at the walking trail. My neighbors are also dog lovers, they just love little Lucylle. I have a fenced back yard for them to play in with my girl, and I keep a watchful eye on them when they are outside. I can crate your baby if needed, as I do my own sometimes. I have little beds and/or a blanket for them to snuggle when they are napping. Being retired gives me plenty of time for your fur baby (and mine). Caring, playing and loving them as if they were my own.

“Julie provided outstanding daycare for our golden retriever, Beau. We were visiting the area and needed a place for him to stay while we explored a distillery that didn't allow dogs. Julie replied to my message quickly and we worked out a day schedule. She provided us with photos of Beau while we were gone and our pickup was smooth. Beau was very happy and relaxed. I highly recommend Julie for dog daycare.”

“We were in town on vacation to visit distilleries. Cassie set up a meet n greet the Sunday before our visit and did a wonderful job showing us around. Day of was easy and Charlie had a great visit. Totally recommend to everyone”

About: I have always liked pets. I just never had my own space and time to have my own. However I am much of a caregiver. I would like to give your pet a little support when you are away. I have flexible schedules mostly during the weekend. During the week I am available only in the evenings due to work. But if anything, please contact me to check the availability! First I check if the pet is comfortable with me. If they are not comfortable with me, I help them get used to me. By letting them sniff me or by me just staying with them in the same space. Then I would play with them or just calmly spend time with them depending on the pet owner's instruction.

“Look no further, Renee is a GEM! My husband and I were RVing in Kentucky and needed a dog sitter at the last minute. Renee not only took Beans in last minute but truly is amazing with Dogs! Beans had so much fun she was so sad to leave! Thank you so much Renee! If we are ever back in Kentucky we will be reaching out!”

“Our dog Scout loves when he gets to hang out with Sarah! It's so convenient for him to have a play date with her when I work all day, and I love that he doesn't have to be crated the whole time I'm gone. He gets to go to the dog park, go for rides, and even sometimes for a pup cup! He always takes a long nap after we get him home, he's thoroughly tuckered out!”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I know how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your furry family members. I’m here to give your pets the same love, attention, and respect they get at home. From long walks to quiet cuddle time, I follow your routine to keep them comfortable and content. I have had my own pets for 15+ years plus, different kinds of them. You can count on me for consistent, reliable, and loving care. I understand the trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s hands, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’ll keep you updated with photos and notes, so you always know how your pet is doing. Safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I always provide a calm, secure, and loving environment where pets can feel relaxed and at home. I take time to learn each animal’s personality, routines, and any special needs they have whether it’s dietary restrictions, medications, or just needing extra cuddles and patience. I’m gentle, attentive, and always go at your pet’s pace, especially if they’re shy, anxious, or adjusting to a new situation. Clean water, a safe space, plenty of playtime, and lots of affection are always part of my care. I also give regular updates with photos and messages so you feel connected and reassured while you’re away. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel confident, comfortable, and cared for every step of the way.

About: Welcome! While new to Rover, we are not new to loving and caring for our furry loved ones! We own 3 dogs and 1 cat and they are so loved! We have a large fenced yard that your pet can play and run! We also supply crates, that we use only when unsupervised or during feeding (if needed). For most of the time they will be having fun outside or curled up in the house with us, especially on the cold days as winter approaches. For cats, to create a safe place for them, I am able to give them their own quiet space and allow them in the main part of the house if/when they are comfortable. I’m experienced with giving medications, including shots. I have experience working with pets and their basic commands as well as potty training, so I am more than willing to keep those young dogs/cats or elderly that may need some extra love and maintenance! I work at home and care for our livestock, so I am home all day and able to care and love your pet as my own so they feel safe and comfortable! We have a fence yard so your pup can run, play and do business their business fear of running off. We also provide crates for unsupervised times when I’m not in the house, as well as feeding if needed. With our personal dogs, we are more than happy to let them play with your pup but we are also set up to keep them separate if there is concern. Your pup will be treated like a part of the family but we want your pup safe and happy and will do what we can to make sure that happens!

About: I've had pets all of my life, having pets is a blessing. I have 4 cats, Astra, Echo, Nyx, and Stormi. They're my babies! So a little about me, my name is Maggie, I'm 21 years old and I love animals. One day I hope to start a few businesses including a Catfé (cat cafe), a pet store and an animal sanctuary. I also want to start an etsy shop selling homemade items and 5% of my earnings will go to animal charities. A couple of my hobbies are crocheting, learning different languages such as Japanese and sign language, guitar, sewing and video games. I volunteer at an animal rescue in Bardstown called Barktown. I look forward to meeting you and your furbabies! I currently am unemployed and not a student, so caring for your furbabies fits perfectly into my schedule. I do occasionally DoorDash for some extra cash. Your furbabies will have someone to give them love and attention. Depending on the weather depends on how much they'll be outside, and play time is a given. I also know how to give your pets mental simulation, lick mats are amazing for both cats and dogs, unraveling toys with treats is also a great option for simulation if you don't have a lick mat.
