“Dina is one of the BEST!!! Overall great person and you could instantly tell that she has a genuine care for the animals that she is around and taking care of. As a pet owner herself, she gets how difficult it is to leave the fur babies and made us feel at ease leaving them in her care. Dina sent regular updates and pictures throughout the stay which we LOVED!!! She was extremely accommodating and went above and beyond! We would book Dina again in a heartbeat as long as her availability allows (I know she is popular and rightfully so)!!! She also took great care of our home while we were away and we returned to our home as clean or maybe even a little cleaner than when we left it. Dina is fantastic and we would definitely recommend her to anyone asking.”

“Kylie did a great job! The boys were well taken of care of and communication was great. Can’t thank her enough for helping us on short notice.”

“We had to quickly find someone to help us with an overnight after our dog was diagnosed with an upper respiratory infection and couldn’t go to his normal place. We ended up finding Emelyn who was willing to take care of the other two dogs plus our sick pup who needed meds. She was communicative, kind and took great care of our pack. The dogs seemed to be way more at ease in their home plus I got pictures which made us know they were being well taken care of.”

“Hannah did an outstanding job watching my dogs at my home for a couple nights. Her communication and updates throughout her stay were outstanding. She went up and beyond to make sure the house was in better shape than when it was left. My dog’s really enjoyed her. I would definitely recommend Hannah.”

“Sarah was an excellent sitter for me. They were consistent in getting me updates and sending photos. My pups were in great hands with them and I would happily book their services again!”

“Addie was so incredible watching our Vizsla for a few days while out of town. She consistently checked in and sent tons of photos & videos. Highly recommend if you are looking for someone who is kind & gentle with your furry family member.”


“Ashleigh took wonderful care of our two furry babies again! She is reliable, attentive, and truly loves animals. We always feel at ease knowing they’re in her care. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!”

“Angelee was a complete angel! She took great care of our pets, providing consistent updates and going above and beyond. I’m definitely rebooking her and you should too!”

“I cannot say enough positive things about Mary Grace! She house sat/pet sat our cat Luna and was fantastic. She provided great updates and photos and was attentive to all details house/pet related. She left our place cleaner than when she came and was very flexible when we had a slight schedule change. We’ll definitely be using her again!”

“Megan was great! It was so nice to have the dogs be able to stay in our home and be taken care of so well. She fed our two dogs each night, gave them needed medicine, played outside with them and sent us frequent updates with pictures. She left our home tidy and clean. What a relief to not have to worry about our dogs while on vacation.”

“Taylor was absolutely fantastic! Her care for my dog and cat went above and beyond all expectations. Throughout her stay, she provided regular updates and photos, keeping me connected to my furry companions. She even patiently took the time to hand-feed my dog who goes on hunger strikes when I am away. Taylor's dedication, respect, and passion for animals make her the perfect choice for any pet or house-sitting needs, and I can't recommend her enough!”

“Madison was amazing with our dogs and they took to her right away. She is very responsive and sends lots of sweet pics. She stayed at our house and everything is just how we left it. Would definitely have her dog sit again!”

About: We work from home full-time, which means your pup will get lots of supervision, attention, companionship, and cuddles throughout the day instead of being left alone for long periods. Dogs staying with us typically get up to two walks a day, usually 1–2.5 mile walks at nearby trails. If your pup enjoys walks and adventures, they’re welcome to join! We also make sure dogs have plenty of supervised playtime, enrichment, rest, and individualized attention depending on their personality and energy level. We genuinely love pets and try to make them feel like part of the family while they’re here. Whether your dog is playful, cuddly, shy, energetic, or prefers a calmer environment, we do our best to adapt to their needs and routine. We're also happy to provide regular updates, photos, and videos so you can feel comfortable while you’re away. We know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and we aim to create a safe, loving environment where both you and your pup feel comfortable. I have a flexible schedule to give your pets the love and attention they deserve! I take my dog on walks twice a day for 1-2.5 miles in the park and typically spend the rest of the day at home, treating your babies like my own. I have a fenced yard and live walking distance from a park with wooded trails. I have a friendly pup in my home who loves having friends to play with. I will care for your pets like my own!
“Dave was absolutely great and totally crucial to my happiness during my 2 week vacation. Not only is he punctual, reliable, and communicative, he is an animal lover. He loves the animals and they love him too. I got home to happy and healthy animals which is one of the best gifts I could have received. He consistently sent me photo updates of all my animals. He developed personal relationships with each of my 3 animals and knew their personality traits within a couple days. I will definitely be using him again. I very much recommend using Dave!”

“She done a great job! Great communication and even better she took care of my babies while one of them was sick. Definitely recommend and will be in contact if needed again.”


“Glenn communicated with us throughout our time away and sent several updates of our pets with pictures. I would gladly hire him to pet sit again in the future!”

“Natalie was able to take care of my pups last minute while I was away on a quick weekend trip. She was flexible for a meet and greet, and stayed right on schedule for taking care of my dogs. Will definitely use her for my next trip!”

“Melissa is always so great with our dog. He has high anxiety and she is always patient and makes him feel comfortable while we are out of town. She also sends us photos throughout her stay with him so we can see how he is doing. She also is a wonderful house guest and leaves our home just as she found it. Truly love having her take care of our dog while we are away.”

Lexington-Fayette pet parents share their Rover experiences
Sarah was wonderful! She sent us updates with photos every day and really made us feel like our pups were in good hands. I wish I had done this years ago instead of using a kennel. We knew they were not only fed and sheltered, but they got pets and love and could relax in their own home without the anxiety of a bunch of other dogs barking around them. We have already booked her again!

Megan was absolutely incredible & we couldn’t have asked for a better rover. Super sweet and extremely polite, prompt and professional. We had absolutely no concerns with her caring for our girl while we were away. She was in great hands with Megan! Megan kept us updated with photos and daily check ins. She also left our apartment absolutely spotless. Will absolutely be reaching back out in the future next time we’re in need of a Rover!

Taylor took great care of our dog Murphy and our home while we were out of town for our son's wedding. We were able to relax and enjoy ourselves knowing Murphy was being well taken care of. Taylor even washed the sheets and towels she used during her stay and vacuumed too! I highly recommend her!!!

Susanna is the absolute best!!! She is the sweetest, kindest, most gentle and loving human. There was an instant connection with her and I. And her and our pets. I felt safe and comfortable with her and my pets in a way I have never had. She gave updates. And I felt like i was talking with my friend. I never had to worry once with our precious cargo. I knew they were well loved, and well taken care of. She’s just the most magical human. Bringing a sense of calm to our entire household. ❤️

Megan was great! It was so nice to have the dogs be able to stay in our home and be taken care of so well. She fed our two dogs each night, gave them needed medicine, played outside with them and sent us frequent updates with pictures. She left our home tidy and clean. What a relief to not have to worry about our dogs while on vacation.
