“Christina was THE BEST! She sent me pictures of my doggie every day and also gave me an update on how Charlie was doing. She made me feel at ease and she took such great care of my Charlie!!”


About: Hi! I'm Jess. I have been an animal lover all my life. I have become the designated pet sitter for all my friends, family, and lots of coworkers over the years. I have experience with all ages, from puppies to seniors. I also have experience tending to various medical needs. I love going on adventures out in nature and taking walks with your pets. They will get lots of attention and exercise with me. I equally love cuddling up on the couch and relaxing with them. I am happy to care of a single pet or multiple. I love all sizes, breeds, and ages. They are all precious and you can trust that I will treat them like family. I am originally from Ashland, but I have lived in Montana for the last 15 years. I very recently moved back to Ashland to be near family. Being in between jobs is giving me an open and flexible schedule at the moment. I am really looking forward to meeting and spending my free time with new animals to love. I will take care of your pets and your home as if they were my own. I like to give you updates through texts and/or pictures to let you know that your pets are safe, happy, and being well taken care of. I have respect for your space and I will leave it as good or better than when you left.

“Brittany was a delight, taking outstanding care of our Golden Doodle, Ridley. She would provide daily updates and pictures. Brittany's attention to detail and extra special - personal touches were special We felt very confident that Ridley was in great hands. I would highly recommend Brittany.”


About: I love all dogs and cats and reptiles and birds. You name the animal. I just want to take care of the baby the way you would. I work four days a week so I have plenty of time to stay with or visit your animals as needed, over nights are welcome!! I have a fenced yard and 4 friendly pups but I am also willing to come stay at your home with your pets, whatever is needed!

About: I’ve been recommended to many by word of mouth, so I decided to bring my business to Rover as well! There’s nothing I love more than being able to provide comfort for your pets whenever you’re away. Me and your pets will go on walks, play dates, and anything else they enjoy! Be prepared for lots of photos of us enjoying our days together! I am working part time while doing a summer internship. Ideally, I am available for overnight stays, whether it be for the weekend or two weeks! I also have sitter backups for any extra care needed in which I’m not able to tend to. I’m currently in graduate school at Morehead State in Ky and will resume in-person classes in the middle of August. I haven’t dog sat in my own home before because I have 2 dogs and a pig of my own. Caring for your home and pets is what is most important to me! I will always be easy to reach, whether it be by phone, text, or FaceTime! I will also water your plants, pick up your mail, take out the trash, etc.

About: I am the biggest animal lover! Everyone I know has relied on me to take care of their beloved fur-babies and you guys should too! I am new to Rover, but not new to animal care! I have had animals my whole life and pride myself in giving the best care. I currently am a high school social studies teacher. As an animal lover, however, I am very much looking forward to incorporating pet care into my daily schedule! I have had pets my whole life and can’t wait to meet your fur-babies! I live in an apartment with two cats—Princess and Lilly. I would be happy to provide in home boarding for your cats or drop in visits! My cats are a little indifferent on dogs, however, so it would take a meet and greet before deciding on boarding a dog! With that being said, I can do walks and drop ins before and after school and on weekends. I will be happy to help in whatever way I can!

“Brooke is very professional and for being a stranger staying in our home it was quite easy to trust her. We have a seriously high energy doodle and an eight month old beagle mix and she did great with them. Her photos of the pets were a nice touch. I would recommend her to anyone.”


About: My husband and I are animal lovers and enjoy getting to care for other people’s fur babies! We have two golden doodles who love making new friends, whether it’s for playtime at home or fun walks around the neighborhood. Our home is full of love, fun, and plenty of tail wags, and we can’t wait to welcome your pup—whether for a stay or a stroll! I work from home some days, so when I’m home, your pup will get plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise throughout the day! Even on the days I’m not home full-time, my schedule is flexible enough to accommodate most needs for walks, drop-in visits, and overnight stays. Whether your dog needs a fun playmate, regular potty breaks, or a stroll around the neighborhood, I’m here to make sure they’re well cared for! We have a spacious, fenced-in yard where your pup can safely run, play, and get their zoomies out! For added security, we also have crates available if your dog needs a safe space or if I need to step out for a short period. Our two golden doodles love making new friends and will help ensure your pup gets plenty of exercise and social time. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities, and I will always treat them like part of the family while they’re in my care!

About: We have a black lab beagal mix at our house and we have trained him and have taken him to training classes. I also am very flexible with the times I can walk that dogs. I can also run with the dogs with the client wants me to! With having a dog it is daily. We take our dog for walks most days unless it is raining or too hot out. We love him like he is our own kid :) I would not take a clients animal into our house. I would primarily walk them around the area to make sure they have been walked. If the client wants me to run with them as well I can do that too!

About: Taken care of animals since I was a kid. I absolutely love animals. They need someone to stand up for them and a voice willing to protect them. I'm a Army Veteran who is looking to keep busy. Hi, im here to take care care and support your loved one. I know what it means to have an animal as part of your family. I can take care of your animal as I do with my 2 Chihuahuas , with care and love. They will be well taken care of. I'm here to provide the best care as possible

About: Hi! My name is Hadyn (23yo) and I can’t wait to meet your furry family! After being a loyal pet sitter to very few for the better half of a decade, I’m looking to expand my clientele! I am currently available for house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking. I have always been surrounded by animals, and found them to be great company! These days my furry family includes 3 cats and 3 ferrets, along with my parents’ 3 dogs, cat, and snake (scaley fam). Due to this and my own personal passion, I have a wide variety of experience with dogs, cats, and small animals. I’ve worked with many different types of dogs and cats including seniors and those with special needs. I appreciate any specific and thorough instructions for how I can best support your pet. I also have experience administering oral medication. For the consideration of larger dogs, I must say I can only lift up to 50lbs. I strive for a holistic approach to an animal’s individual wellness emphasizing play (exercise & enrichment activities), a stress-free & loving environment, and nutrition. Though I am not a vet, I can offer advice based on my own knowledge and experiences working with pets in a personal and professional setting. For overnight stays in your home, upon request I can water plants, bring in mail, & take out the trash. I will be easily reachable by text or call, whichever you prefer, and will happily provide picture updates! Thank you for reading and I hope to hear from you! :) I have pretty open availability! If I take an overnight visit, I will routinely check in on my own animals 2-3 times per day depending. 30 min visits at a time is all I need! I live in Catlettsburg, so wherever you are in the Tri-State shouldn’t be far! I offer dog walking, drop-ins and house sitting! This is for the comfort of my own cats. You can breathe easy knowing that I will do all I can to ensure a fun filled, comfortable, and safe experience for your pet. They will get a balance of playtime and love, all while following the feeding routines you’ve set for them! Additional instruction is encouraged to make sure they get everything they need & for any ground rules set in the home.

About: I’ve taken care of my household dogs for 18 years. Sadly due to my father’s allergies I haven’t been able to have a cat. But have been around them in any chance I can get and have experience caring for them. I’m working part time but would love to make room for taking care of your pets. I also volunteer at St Mary’s but will do my best to fit your animal into my schedule. I can’t care for pets in my own home due to my family not wanting to be around pets at the moment. But I would love to branch out to other homes to care for your pets.

Shelley U.
“I have used Shelley multiple times and my fur babies can't wait for my next trip because they know Shelley will be taking care of them. I have 3 dogs and 1 cat, one of my dogs is diabetic and requires insulin shots twice a day. Shelley keeps to his schedule and makes sure he only gets the food/treats he is allowed on the strict diet. One of my other fur babies is 14 years old now and her kidneys are starting to fail so my last trip in July she needed sub-q fluids given every other day and Shelley had no problems. My other dog and the cat are easy lol. Shelley sent me text messages and pictures/videos of all my babies daily while I was out of town. It is a huge relief to know that my babies are being cared for just as I would care for them. They all love Shelley and are excited when she comes to see them.”
