“Natalie did a wonderful job caring for our fur babies for the 4 days we were gone. Both the cat and the pup were happy to see us upon our return but neither was upset, which means they were well taken care of. Natalie left the house spotless (as she found it), brought in our mail and even fed the fish!. We (and our pets) are looking forward to seeing Natalie again in just a few weeks.”

About: I'd love to take your dog for a run! I've always had pets of all kinds and it is such a joy to care for them! I grew up with a dog, bird, lizards, rats, and hamsters, and now have a Pyrenees and two bunnies. I have also fostered puppies and senior dogs, so I have experience with all walks of life I work full time, but in a flexible job where it's easy for me to come visit your pets multiple times a day. I love to run and walk, so taking your pups for any type of exercise is the best part of my day! I always treat my pets like another member of the family and will treat your babies with the same love, care, and respect. It's hard to be away from them and you need to feel secure that they are well cared for.
“I booked Arianna for an overnight stay with my two big dogs. She was great with them and I felt like the house was in great hands too! She communicated well and often; we’ll definitely be booking her again!”

“Joanna was excellent at all stages of the process! She is thorough, and kept me informed about Cash while we were gone, sending pictures and updates frequently. Cash really warmed up to her and we will definitely book with Joanna in the future. Thank you!”

About: Hello!! I recently finished my masters at Northern Arizona University and have moved back to Louisville while I am awaiting to hear back from PhD programs for the fall! I am hoping to start saving up money in the meantime before I start my PhD this coming August. I have always had a love for animals and pet sitting for my friends so I thought I would try Rover out. I provide dependable, attentive care with a strong focus on safety, routine, and communication. I take the time to understand each pet’s individual needs and ensure they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I’m patient with puppies who are still learning and gentle and attentive with senior dogs who may need extra care. I prioritize clear updates and consistency so you always know your pet is in good hands. Pet care is my full-time focus, allowing me to structure my daily and weekly routine around each pet’s needs. I provide reliable dog walking and attentive pet sitting, ensuring pets receive consistent care, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. Because this is my primary commitment, I’m able to maintain routines, offer flexible scheduling, and closely monitor pets to keep them safe, comfortable, and happy. I care for pets by following their established routines and providing attentive, reliable support in their own home whenever possible. For walks, I focus on safe, structured exercise tailored to each dog’s energy level and comfort. During pet sitting visits, I ensure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, receive companionship, and are monitored closely for any changes in behavior or health. I keep homes clean and secure and provide regular updates so owners feel confident their pets are well cared for.
“Nicole was the best sitter I have had on Rover! She helped me out last minute in a bind, was so responsive and constantly sending me pics of my pups! I will definitely be booking her again!”

“We had a last minute trip scheduled and was in need of assistance with our dog. Robin was very helpful, caring and delight to have helping with our dog. She kept us informed of how he was doing, eating, bathroom and behavior. Helped him out with some tummy troubles. We would definitely use Robin again. This was our first time using Rover. From this experience it won’t be our last. Thanks Robin for taking such good care of our dog”

“Amber was great! She stayed at the house with our three dogs over the holiday break. She was very responsive and sent daily pictures of our fur babies! She took good care of them, cuddled them, and was a great house guest. We definitely plan on using her again!”

About: I've cared for many dogs! I love dogs of all ages! I am very active and love going on walks! I have experience with elderly dogs. As well as handing medications for them and helping them with their mobility around the house and to use the potty! No matter the age your pup will be loved and cared for by me! I work nights. Since my shifts are during the evening and overnight hours, I’m available during the day to care for pets, take them on walks, feed them, and spend quality time with them. My schedule is very flexible during the day. Which means I can give pets plenty of attention and maintain their routines. Working nights allows me to be available for early morning, afternoon, and evenings before work check ins! care for pets by closely following their owners’ instructions and maintaining the routines they’re used to. When staying overnight, I dedicate my full attention to the pet, ensuring they feel comfortable, loved, and secure while also keeping the home clean and tidy. For drop-in visits, I make sure to allow plenty of time for feeding, walks, play, and cuddles, so each pet gets the care and attention they deserve.

We would not hesitate to trust Grace again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive pet sitter

Avery came to our home to sit with our 4-legged babies for a couple of hours. We don’t really leave them home alone but we both needed to be gone at the same time and other sitters we’d previously used were not available. It was pretty expensive for a few hours but we were grateful she could do it on just a few days notice. Avery was prompt in arriving, friendly, good with the dogs, and sent a pic during the time she was there. I would not hesitate to book her again if needed.

Sarah was patient with our worries and overpreparation (we've never used Rover prior to or left for this long) and wonderful with our pup, who's never been cared for by anyone but family. All went better than expected and we will be asking her to help out again when we leave town!
