“Leann was a great house sitter and I would highly recommend her. She was very responsive and gave me updates throughout the stay. She left my home in the same condition as I left it and I could tell my animals felt comfortable with her from the photos she sent me. I’m very happy overall and would book with her again.”


“Lexi was absolutely amazing and went above and beyond. Our dog had an expected health issue before we left and Lexi kept us up to date every day on how she was doing, calibrated to a different diet and some meds needed for the week, and even coordinated with me and the vet regarding a complication that came up from her health issue while we were gone. She clearly has a good pulse on animals and even our vet commented on how on top of things she was. Let this serve as a glowing review, highly highly recommended house/dog/cat sitter, and I hope we have the opportunity to book with her again in the future.”


“Zania was absolutely fantastic with our pit bull & cats. Our pittie is calm & lovey inside, but when he gets outside, he’s a crazy man. Zania handled him with great ease and is very knowledgeable with dogs and training. We had 1 night away and we were updated about walks, feedings, pictures, and given a bedtime pup-date ( update at the end of the day) We could not have asked for more. We are thrilled to welcome her to our house for more pet sitting.”


“We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter for our boy! We got so lucky! Jude took such incredible care of Gunner while we were away, sending regular photo updates and keeping us informed the entire time. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such loving hands. She also kept our home spotless, which was such a wonderful bonus to come home to! Her kindness and trustworthiness set her apart. We will absolutely be booking with Jude again if available and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”


“Anastasia was amazing and so wonderful with both my fur babies.. I am using her again in December and now that I found her will continue to as well for all my trips. I felt very comfortable with her and so did my fur babies.. Thank You! Looking forward to seeing you again soon..”


“Frances did such a great job house sitting our dogs and cats! Not only did she take care of our pets, but also she left the house in great shape for our return. We needed a sitter last minute and we are so glad we found Frances!”


“Melissa was fantastic! She took care of Sir Winston on very short notice when we had other arrangements fall through. We were later than expected getting home, and she agreed to stay with Winston until we got there. Winston doesn’t always warm up to new people quickly, but he immediately liked Melissa. I highly recommend her!”


About: Hi my name is Katrina, or Kat for short. I truly have a passion and heart for animals! As a teen i started pet sitting and knew I wanted to always work with animals so as an adult I went to school for dog grooming. I was a pet sylist for 15 year with my own shop but had to retire due to injuries and health. I have a lot of experience, patience and care with many types of dogs and animals. I did schooling for dog psychology and training methods and continue to further my education. I also have two dogs, a westie and a pittie rescue mix, three cats and several reptiles so i'm always surrounded by animals which I love! I do also have experience with rescue work, raising bottle fed kittens. ♡ I have studied dog behavior and believe in using positive reinforcements and redirecting. I am able to do short training sessions focused on mental stimulation. If you have topples or puzzle toys i can provide your pup with that as well. ♡ I am cpr trained and am able to give medication. ♡ I will meet your dogs needs wether it be mental stimulation with fun games, a short walk or just hanging out together. ♡ I will provide photos as well updates if requested ♡ I will refresh water bowls, do feedings, take out for potty time or scoop litter. ♡ I will respect your home, time and privacy and provide your pet(s) with the utmost care and attention. I am pretty flexible, i'm avaialble during weekdays as well as every other sunday. I will keep my times available updated on the calender here at rover. I am able to feed your animals, take them out to potty, short walks as well as spend time giving them attention and play with them.

“Serena is absolutely wonderful! She agreed to a meet n greet with our Maxey (who can be very intense upon first greetings) and then watched him while we were away for the day. She is an excellent communicator with what she/the dog are doing, sending lots of photos and updates. She’s got a great sense of humor playing along with our dog’s big personality. During our meet n greet she showered our dog with tons of love and let him cover her in kisses and I know they did plenty of cuddling when she watched him. Book Serena, you won’t regret it!”


“Barbara is a natural! I have a hesitant, scared of a lot of things dog and he warmed up to her in no time. She was wonderful with both my doggies. I’m a worrier, but felt good leaving my dogs in her hands. She is responsible and communicative and takes good care to follow whatever regimen/schedule you ask her to. We came home to very calm and happy dogs. So happy to have found her!”


“After a last minute cancellation from another sitter, we were so lucky to come across Jordan's profile. She was able to do a meet and great asap and accommodated our 2 fur babies for a 10 day stay. They immediately felt comfortable following her around her home which also had a fully fenced in backyard. We appreciate her prompt messages and video updates to reassure us the pups are doing well. Our sweet boy Cowboy loved her daughter and both pups got tons of play time in their backyard. Loved how they both got a much needed supervised play time and socialization with their pup and other well behaved doggies too. It is good to know they are well cared for and with someone reliable while their family is away. We would use her again soon. Thank you :)”


“Rebekah was wonderful she was very attentive to my furbabies ! I had her watch my babies for the 4th of July since I was working overnight. She stayed in contact with me and even cleaned up after my cat who threw up because she was so nervous but Rebekah calmed them all down and had them sleeping like babies before she left. Thanks again !”

Lexington pet parents share their Rover experiences
There's no one we trust more with our Lulu (and our home) than Willow! This was our second booking with her, and we absolutely will book her in the future when we travel. If you're looking for an experienced, patient, caring, and responsible pet sitter--Willow checks all the boxes and then some. Thank you, Willow, for your exceptional care! We always have complete peace of mind knowing you're with our sweet but quirky girl. ❤️

Heather is always a wonderful pet sitter to our two girls. She keeps them so happy with belly rubs and playing with toys. And she does a wonderful job of keeping me up to date with everything that goes on with them. I feel very at east knowing that she is watching our two girls.

Came home to a clean, everything in perfect order and 2 happy and content dogs! Couldn’t ask for a better experience! Barbara is very professional and made me feel at ease leaving my dogs in her care with every text and picture. So happy we found her…my dogs have a new buddy and will definitely use her services again. Thank you for being so good to our fur babies!
