âBryn did a great job communicating to set up the walk. In the meet and greet it was clear she was good with animals. Her walk with our dog seemed to go well and she sent cute pictures.â

âRiley is excellent at communicating, and helped us out with a somewhat last minute request for two walks in one day. She was kind enough to do a meet and greet beforehand, asked great questions, and gave a detailed review of the walk after. Highly recommend Riley!â


âThank you, Lila for taking such good care of Pace ! It made it easier to be away knowing someone was caring for him the same way I would. Consistently sending me pictures and a report each time you visited was a bonus and very much appreciated !â

âCole was so great and patient with our dogs (one of whom is a little crazy!) He's kind, compassionate, responsible and made us feel like our pups are always in good hands. We'll certainly use him again and recommend him to anyone!â

âWe are so glad to have found Dan!! We appreciate how well he cares for Louie while on walks. Louie comes back happy and tired, and based on how excited he is when sees Dan, looking forward to his next walk đâ

âMichelle was amazing walking/hanging out with our two dogs at the last minute. Super communicative and professional and is a real-deal animal lover, really gets how much we love our fur babies. Will rebook.â

About: Throughout my lifelong experience as a caretaker for my familyâs 6+ cats and dogs at any given moment, Iâve connected with every pet Iâve met no matter the personality. My own fur baby was in the shelter for over a year because of his âbehavioral problemsâ, but youâd never guess that - he canât stand to leave my side! I believe every animal deserves a chance at the care and patience needed to bring out their spirit. Whether your pet is a social butterfly or needs their space, Iâm delighted to provide your loved ones their unique care needs. No task is too squeamish for me! Iâm also a plant NERD, and love houseplants! I work from home, and can be available even on last-minute notice. My own space is set up to suit the needs of my fur babies with behavior issues, so I can easily adapt to your specific care requests.

âCurtis is very friendly, a fantastic communicator, and so understanding of my dog and her reactivity needs! So glad he could spend time with her while I was away.â

About: I have always loved dogs since I was a child. I decided to have my first own doggy 6 years ago and my life completely changed. I pursued a theoretical course to become a dog trainer, but I have never completed the practical one due to a lack of time. I moved here from Italy three months ago (with my husband, our two cats and one dog) and now I have the opportunity to embrace my biggest passion: pets/animals. Mountains, nature and open spaces have always been my greatest source of experience and inspiration. I work for a full time job few months ago, so I can dedicate time to your pets after 4 pm only. Iâm not ready to offer the home sitting service since I need to understand how our pets can behave with clientsâ ones in overnight mode. We have a small fenced yard, one dog and two cats ready to meet and keep your pets company. We have no kids for now, so it could be easier for your fur friends.
About: I am an experienced Rover sitter new to the Louisville area! I currently work full-time as a PD Scientist. My hours are flexible and I can accommodate a variety of times to care for your fur baby! I was a Veterinary Technician for 5 years and am still passionate about that role. I have 15 years of animal care experience through veterinary work and pet sitting. I also have fear-free care training. I have two cats of my own at home, but I love both dogs and cats! I offer a variety of services and can accommodate mostly anything you or your pet might need. I am comfortable administering medications, injections, and subcutaneous fluids. I offer pedicures included with a visit if your pet is comfortable. I always offer pets, cuddles, and compliments to your pet with each visit! I currently work full-time Monday through Friday, but my hours are flexible. I can accommodate most times for drop-in bookings. I am typically available mornings and evenings 7 days per week. I can also be available mid-day, depending on the day. If there is an emergency, I will always tend to your pet as soon as possible. Animal well-being and safety is my number one priority. I put my full attention and energy into each visit with your pet to ensure they are well taken care of. I will treat your pets as I would treat my own. I have experience with cats and dogs with a full range of sizes and behaviors. I can adjust to ensure the comfort of your pet.
âSarah did a great job giving my dogs a midday walk! Her communication is super fast and thorough. She is caring and professional, and I would definitely recommend her!â

âMichelle was amazing! Our cat is young and energetic and she made sure to get his energy out every day and leave all sorts of enrichment things when she left for the day. Despite our kitty being a bit high maintenance, Michelle took excellent care of him and was incredibly responsive and receptive to new instructions. Thank you for your hard work, Michelle!â

âShelby was fantastic with Asuna! She was punctual, attentive, and made sure Asuna got plenty of exercise and attention. Asuna came back happy and tiredâdefinitely looking forward to booking with Shelby again!â

âAlyson was fantastic! She was always quick to respond and very punctual, which gave me great peace of mind. She took great care of Winston and he was happy and comfortable with her. I wouldn't hesitate to book her again! 5 starsâ

About: Every since I was a little girl Iâve craved interaction with all different kinds of animals. Iâve done volunteer work at the animal shelter, house sat for friends and family and have even owned my fair share of dogs. I am not able to get a dog right now due to my busy schedule, so I would love to be there for those looking for some extra help! More than willing to send you pictures and updates as I take care of your loved one! Our apartment has a little puppy park out back and beautiful trails around it. Our apartment is very welcoming to animals and Iâm sure your pup would get love from the whole building! Please consider me when looking for a caretaker âĽď¸
âBrett is fantastic! He is currently walking my dog multiple times a week (I broke my ankle), and I will be continuing to use Brett until I heal. I have a large, anxious dog (60lbs) who had only ever been walked by me. Brett was great with Boo from the first. Boo (being Boo) was uncertain and anxious the first meeting but by the time he came back from the first walk Boo adored Brett, and now Boo gets sooo excited when Brett comes over and canât wait to go on walks with him. Boo also has anxiety over thresholds (doorways , etc.) - Brett is calm and kind and is helping Boo learn to deal with things like this. It is a huge relief not only to find a reliable dog walker but also one who genuinely cares about my dog. I would highly recommend Brett to anyone wanting a trustworthy and just wonderful dog walker.â
