About: My entire life I have been raised around large breed dogs, cats, and fish. I am also familiar with reptile, monkey, equestrian, farm animal, and small mammal care. Such as cleaning pens, feedings, cleaning tanks, ear canal cleanings, nail trimming, bathing, and deshedding! The personal pets you see listed on my profile are 100% accurate as well, most people find it shocking but I’ve always been raised around an entire pack of animals and they are all in the best health with the most love we could possibly surround them with! I am completely available to watch your animals! I am hoping to make this a full time job, so please book me for your long trips, and daily walks! I can ensure that I will leave your house cleaner than when I arrived. My parents run 5 AirBnB cabins, and I am the housekeeper for the guests to ensure sanitary sheets, towels, and plates/dishes are provided. As well as a well kept, and clean living environment while they enjoy our stay with us! I was previously a school custodian for South Warren Middle School in Bowling Green, KY, so cleaning was a daily job for me and I thoroughly enjoy it. Now I hope to love on animals and make sure that THEY stay in a sanitary and clean environment.
“Lydia cared for Lou twice a day, sent me pictures each visit to confirm her being there without me asking for that. Even came early before a storm one day so Lou didn’t have to go out in the rain. Communication was great so I recommend!”

I want you to feel completely at ease knowing your baby at home is safe, comfortable, & cared for. I’m an Educational Assistant from Mt. Juliet High on summer break. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already care for my senior dog, Penny, every day. My schedule is very open & flexible.

Families can appreciate my calm, steady presence & the consistency I bring to every visit. I provide safe, reliable care by following each pet’s routine exactly as instructed.

I’ll treat your baby or babies with the same care & attention I give my own, so you can feel confident they’re in good hands.
“Esther has been doing drop-in visits for our Bichon since early 2024. She is so dependable, knowledgeable and kind to our Lucy, and I cannot sing her praises enough. We willl be moving but if we ever are back in the area and need a pet sitter, Esther will be the first person I call. Thankful for all her help.”

About: Hi, I’m Lindsey! I offer a warm home where your dog becomes part of the family. I live with two friendly, playful resident pups who love meeting new friends—so your dog will always have companionship, social time, and plenty of snuggles. I accept dogs on the furniture (couches = cuddle central!), follow your pup’s routine closely, and create a calm, personalized experience tailored to their needs. Whether your dog requires daily medication, struggles with anxiety, or just wants a cozy, loving place to relax while you’re away, I’ve got them covered. While I don’t have a fenced yard, your dog will enjoy plenty of outdoor time on our property. More land = more sniffing adventures. I only care for a few dogs at a time so I can give each one the love and attention they deserve. I treat every dog like my own—with patience, affection, and lots of tail wags! I live in a one level house with only about 4 steps to get into the front for any senior dogs. 📝 Things to Know • No fenced yard, but we play regularly • Dogs allowed on furniture • Two playful, friendly resident dogs • Comfortable with meds & special needs. • Flexible pick-up/drop-off • I care for only a few dogs at a time for high-quality, focused attention Pet care is a natural part of my everyday life—I plan my days around the dogs!

Your pup will get plenty of attention, structure, and affection every single day, just like my own dogs do. I provide a calm and loving environment where dogs can feel safe and relaxed. I follow each pet’s individual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, meds, and crate use (if preferred). Dogs are welcome on the furniture, and they’ll have my two friendly pups as built-in companions for play and company. I keep the home clean, cozy, and supervised, so every dog feels like part of the family.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Lafayette stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
