âSo pleased with how they communicate with me and take care of my pup. Was out of the country for 10 days and was not worried about my dog because I felt very certain she was safe and well watched over. They are VERY flexible, accommodating and AVAILABLE for me and my girl. Glad to have found a sitter who is reliable and who works great with my schedule. House is perfect for sitting, very homey with a LARGE backyard and lots going onâ

âLisi was one of our best experiences. Her and her guy did great with our pup, nice clean place, and communicated well. Our dog came home and was himself, which has not always been the case.â

âIt was my first time using Rover. My 8 year old dog had only ever stayed with family. Mariah was very nice and did a great job. She sent multiple updates and pictures during my trip and made me feel very comfortable with everything. I will definitely use her again đâ

âCiara did a wonderful job with our boxer mix! He is a rescue with some anxiety issues who needs a calm, patient caretaker and she handled him beautifully. I will certainly use her again!â

âSharon did an excellent job watching our senior dog! She and her dog Wesley were super friendly and extra accommodating. Sharon sent frequent updates & pics and even bathed him one day when he needed a refresh. Sharonâs yard is perfect for dogs, very safe & fun to explore or sunbathe. Sharon also plays relaxing music for your dogs. Talk about a dog-cation!! You will not be disappointed booking Sharon, she is a highly skilled Dog Sitter and great with humans too!â

âEmily is extremely caring in particular with very senior dogs. She did an amazing job taking good care of my 15 1/2 year old Shih Tzu. He had a medical issue and she notified me and my vet immediatelyâ
âMy wife and I appreciated the photos and check ins letting us know the dogs were doing well in our absence. Very satisfied with our choice to hire Stephen & Angela to watch our fur babies.â

âChristina was fantastic! My dog stayed with her in her home and she came and fed my cat everyday! I was able to have worry free travel knowing my babies were getting such good care!!! I will definitely book with Christina again!!â


âRachael was wonderful with my senior dog, making sure she was comfortable. It was first time we had been separated since the pandemic started, so with getting photos now and then had helped so much! Iâd trust Rachael with my dog againâ
âEliane was amazing!!! She made us feel so comfortable and provided regular updates with great photos. She took our dog on long walks and spent quality time with her throughout our trip. We couldnât have asked for a better person to watch our dog!â

âAspen was a great dog mom for my pups while I was out of town. She communicated clearly about the arrangements and expectations. She made sure the pups were taken care of and they had a blast. Came home worn out from playing. She also provided updates and pics while she was watching them. I would gladly use her again!â


About: What sets me apart is real, hands-on experience. Iâve raised animals my entire life and have cared for dogs across a wide range of ages, temperaments, and health needs. Iâm comfortable with energetic puppies who need patience and structure, as well as senior or sick dogs who require extra attention, gentle handling, and consistency. I pay close attention to instructions, routines, and small details, especially when a dog needs special care. I stay calm, reliable, and observant, which helps dogs feel safe and owners feel confident while theyâre away. My goal is simple: show up on time, follow directions closely, and make sure each dog is cared for as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. Iâm currently working on my business, which means Iâm home most of the day with my own dog and have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to give pets consistent attention, timely walks, and dependable drop-in care throughout the day. Because Iâm not tied to a strict 9â5 schedule, I can accommodate regular visits, mid-day walks, and last-minute needs when they come up. Caring for animals is already part of my daily life, so adding additional pets into my routine is seamless and never rushed. When caring for pets in my home or a clientâs home, I focus on consistency, comfort, and following the petâs normal routine as closely as possible. Pets always have access to fresh water, are fed according to instructions, and are given plenty of attention throughout each visit. My home environment is quiet, calm, and cozy, with large open areas where dogs can move around and play comfortably, including indoor space during bad weather. I make sure pets get appropriate exercise, playtime, and rest based on their age, energy level, and health needs. In a clientâs home, I respect their space and carefully follow any care instructions provided, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, and specific routines. My priority is always making sure pets feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while their owners are away.
âShunita boarded my puppy and helped nurse him back to health in a time where he needed extra loving, and care just like he was her own! Takes great care and pride in the babies she keeps.â

âThank you Brooke for taking such good care of Sterling. He came home happy and ready for his next adventure. Never missing a beat. It was great to meet you. Iâll be reaching out to you again thanks again kbâ

âMadison took excellent care of Tucker and JJ. Great communication and plenty of pictures. We would happily ask her to take care of our dogs again!â

âShe is outstanding! Caring and attentive, great communicator, listened closely to instructions, sent lots of pics. Very reassuring to a skittish doggy. I thought he might rather stay there than come home! Highly recommend. ?â

âDaphne was wonderful! She took Lola as a last minute booking and we couldn't be happier! We received daily picture updates. Lola was treated like a little princess with lots of love! 𩷠Highly recommend Daphne!â

âSarah helped with my dog Max for the first time this last week, when I was on an extended vacation. She is wonderful, and did a fantastic job caring for my pupper. Highly recommendâ

Louisville pet parents share their Rover experiences
I just relocated to the area and finding a new dog sitter was a pain point and a top priority after leaving an exceptional one behind. Found Emily through a neighborhood group and was instantly comforted by her kind approach, thoughtful questions and obvious love for animals. Just finished my dog's first visit and it was clear Emily earned his trust almost immediately. Regular updates and flexibility added to the experience. We are thrilled to have found a reliable and committed new sitter in Emily.

Anthony was great! Communicarion was good. He agreed to do a meet and greet before we decided. He was affecionate and engaged with Raven as soon as they met. Raven LOVES meeting new people, so this was great for her. She was with him from Thursday morning until Saturday afternoon. He sent pics starting soon after dropoff. He answered our questions about how she was doing quickly. We had recently had a Rover visit aith a different sitter where she either had a bad intestinal bug or a severe anxiety reaction. Nothing like that here. She was thrilled to see me when we got back, but is her normal self, not needing to recuperate! Will look forward to using Anthony again.

Leah was wonderful to work with! She was very responsive and had such a calm, welcoming demeanor. Her home was very clean and well cared for, and it was clear how much thought and intention she puts into creating a safe, comfortable environment. You can really see how much she cares for the pets in her care. We would absolutely recommend her!

Valerie was amazing ! Even though it was only for one night and her first time caring for my dog, she did a wonderful job. I was so happy to see that he came back home calm, relaxed, and completely stress-free, which says a lot about the love and care she gave him. You can tell she truly loves animals. I highly recommend her.â

Jaclyn was great with our dog. She was very kind to him and he warmed up to her right away. I felt comfortable leaving him in her care. Jaclyn also sent me several updates during his stay which I loved because I could tell he was at ease. I would definitely recommend her.

Max took absolutely wonderful care of Lizzy. We did a meet-and-greet before booking to ensure Lizzy would be comfortable with him and the other dog he regularly sits, which was great. He took great care of Lizzy - he loved her all week like she was his own. Would definitely recommend & will be keeping his info for booking in the future! Thanks again, Max!

It's difficult to leave your dogs for nearly two weeks, and with so many sitters to choose from it can be overwhelming trying to figure out the best person to leave them with. If that describes you, then look no farther. You will be hard pressed to find anyone who will love and care for your dogs more than William. Within minutes at our meet & greet, we knew that we wanted William to be our sitter. And our dogs and his dogs got along fabulously. We will definitely contact William the next time we need a sitter.
