Excellent communication regarding my elderly, disabled dog, so that I knew exactly how she was doing throughout the day. I felt Angelee genuinely cared about her, and erased all stress on both sides with her gentle, thoughtful care.

Tanya was very attentive to our pups! She played with them & gave them their dinner as planned. She took the time to give them special attention since we were gone all day! She was very punctual & sent us photos as well! We will definitely be using her again. Thank you for taking such good care of our fur babies!

About: The one thing dog owners will love about me is that i’ll treat their dog as if it were my own. I have a childhood dog & my own dog. Both since they were a puppy. The first one you’ll see is my own his name is Pablo who I currently have. He is turning 4 this year. As for the other one that is Hebrew who was my childhood dog who I took care growing up. He is turning 14 this year. I truly consider both of them my best friends. I am a student at the University of Kentucky. Since that is my first obligation I am only able to take travel and do personal in house care on Tues & Thursday nights and Friday-Sunday nights. I took care of dogs while I was in college in California through Rover. I love animals but more specific I love dogs and I know that with my experience of loving & taking care of my own dog, I will be able to do the same for yours if you let me. I go to college and work part time so I will be back and forth between there. That doesn’t take away from me taking care of dogs as I have one personally. I live in an apartment complex that has a dog park/area for them to play in. There is also a dog shower/cleaning area is they were to get dirty. Of course there is the dog trash bags and cans around as well.

Phillip was amazing with my kitty Scooter. He took care of her while I was away for a week and I was astonished at the magic that he worked on her. She is a sweet girl that can take some time to warm up to people, but he got her to play with him in no time. I will definitely be booking Phillip again the next time Scooter is in need of a sitter, and I highly recommend him for any other cat owners in the area.

Maranda is so sweet and takes the best care of my fur babies! They absolutely love her. She is very professional, communicative, responsible, thorough with questions and instructions, personable, and just so very caring. I have 5 pets and they are an energetic handful and she provided every single one with utmost care. She gave me detailed updates and let me know about all their playtimes. If there was a question or issue she let me know immediately and handled each situation professionally and excellently.

About: I've been an animal lover my entire life and truly enjoy caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether it's dogs, cats, or other furry family members, I treat every pet as if they were my own with plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and care. I'm dependable, detail-oriented, and understand how important it is to keep pets comfortable and maintain their normal routines while their owners are away. I also genuinely enjoy house sitting and take pride in keeping a home clean and well cared for! My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pets are happy, safe, and loved while you're gone. I am currently finishing my current job and will be available to take on pet care bookings full-time until I start school in September. Once school begins, I’ll still be available before and after my classes (9–4:30 weekdays) as well as on weekends. I’m flexible and committed to providing dependable, loving care and making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I am committed to providing the best care for your pets and your home. I will follow all routines and instructions you provide to ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. By the end of your trip, I hope to be your pet’s new best friend!

About: I have recently relocated to Lexington KY and am looking to expand my business here. I will treat your pet as if they were mine. Available most of the day; just let me know in advance I could bathe and socialize them. I will take them to the dog park or walk them with my other dog walk clients (if you want) I can hike with your dog or run with them. Or just relax and chill. I am very loving and sweet. I have grown up with dogs and adore them with my heart. I have two dogs currently. One is my own service dog. I love dogs and everything about them. I work from home, so I am very flexible. I have an open heart to please your dog. I like to hike at least once a week and have lots of play and relaxation. And of course walks daily. I have a fenced yard, toys, treats, and more available for your pup. I will respect your wishes in your house of how to handle your dog.

About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember, with experience ranging from dogs and cats to turtles and hermit crabs. I’m comfortable caring for pets in all stages of life, from energetic puppies who need patience, consistency, and basic training reinforcement to senior dogs who may require extra attention, slower walks, medication support, or mobility assistance. I pride myself on being dependable, attentive, and compassionate with every pet I care for. I understand that each animal has a different personality and routine, and I work to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding schedules, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet like they are my own. I am currently in grad school, so my daily schedule is a little wonky. My days usually start around 8 am and end at 4 pm. Besides that I am wide open to care for your pet and I will be able to stop by during breaks in my days! I am more than comfortable to crate animals if needed. I am attentive and caring, the same levels I would wish someone would give my own pet.

Ellie took great care of our cat while we were gone. She followed all instructions perfectly and, most importantly, ensured that our cat had company and lots of entertainment every time she visited. Her detailed Rover Card information and selection of photos provided peace of mind, and I appreciated the extra videos. I’d book Ellie again!
