About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I've worked on horse farms since I was 16, earned my bachelors in equine science and have a masters of science degree. I currently have two dogs and two cats of my own. I also have a strong understanding of animal behaviors and body language. I am also very passionate in dog training as well. I have experience in administering IM medications and oral medications. I have worked for WAG! which is another walking/boarding platform where I would walk clients dogs on demand and also provided in home boarding. I am currently not working so I am home most of the day. A typical day for me starts between 8-10 am where I immediately let the dogs out to use the bathroom and then back in for breakfast. I occasionally leave the house to run errands but usually not longer than 2 hours. Can tailor to your dogs need if they can't be left alone. Throughout the day I will let the dogs outside as they wish and always with supervision. I feed dinner around 6:30pm. For drop in visits I am able to tailor for whatever your animals needs are and typically available for multiple drop in visits during the day if needed. I have a large fenced in yard. I have two friendly dogs and two friendly cats. I have multiple rooms if your pet needs so quiet time or space from the other animals. I am equipped with multiple crates and baby gates as well if needed. I have a backseat dog hammock and and dog seat belts if needed as well.

“Shelby has been fantastic every time I’ve left Tater with her! She always sends pics and videos throughout the day and keeps me updated on how he’s doing!”


“Nathan did a great job! Great communication and I appreciate how he asked a few extra questions when I first dropped my pup off to make sure he took care of him well. Pup returned happy! Highly recommend!”


“Amazing! Trust her so much with my dog. A great communicator and so kind and helpful!!”


About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life, so I am very comfortable around animals. I have a beagle mix named Ada who is friendly with other dogs as long as they aren’t too big! I have experience with puppies, dogs, kittens, and cats. I would be honored if you entrusted me with your fur babies! I am currently a graduate student at UK with flexibility in my weekday schedule. I have reliable transportation, and I am willing to take care of your fur babies on weekends. I have access to a dog park within walking distance of my apartment. I'm very reliable, and I am more than willing to send you text and picture updates of your pets frequently!

About: Hi! My entire life I have grown up with pets. I have owned multiple breeds, large and small. I currently have two pups, a cream miniature dachshund (Boots) and a dapple miniature dachshund (Buster)! I just recently graduated from physician assistant school at UK and do not start my full time job until October. This allows me to do things I love, like hanging out with dogs! What better way to spend a day than hanging out with our four legged friends! I would love to care for your pets in any capacity I can. Can’t wait to meet your furry family members! I am currently unemployed until October of this year so my schedule is wide open for whatever needs your pet has! I am able to drop in multiple times a day if needed! My dogs are crated when I am not home for safety, but are free to roam when I am home. I am comfortable walking dogs and keeping them on a leash outside when there is no fence available.

“Sable had another wonderful, exciting, yet relaxing time with Jason, Brooke, their entire family, and their dog Toby. Thank you, Rover.com, and a special thanks to Jason and Brooke for your loving care of Sable. God bless you all!”


About: I’ve taken care of animals for many years now. My parents are Rover sitters and we have taken care of several different dogs. I have been exposed to all different breeds and ages. I have also given animals their medication. I am always free during the summer. I can walk your dog, check on your cats or anything else that you need. Just let me know. I would go to your home as many times a day as needed and stay the night if preferred. I can put your dog in its crate or let them sleep in bed with me. I am very accommodating to the needs of your pet.

About: I love both dogs and cats. I've been caring for dogs for most of my adult life. I have pet sitting/walking experience with small, medium, and large dogs. Over the years I have also cared for both indoor and outdoor cats. I am a fulltime remote worker. So I can watch dogs/cats in my home during the day and in the evenings. I can also check in on your fur baby in the morning between 7 & 9 am EDT and take them for a walk in the evening after 6pm EDT. Saturday mornings I am available to take your good boy/precious girl for a walk/run or to spend some chill time at the local dog park. I can walk your fur baby on my quiet street, space for their comfy bed/blanket, and can crate your dog if that's what they are used as needed. My home is pet friendly. I also have space for a litter box and bed for your feline friend. In your home/neighborhood, I can walk your goodest girl/bestest boy, monitor them while they explore their own fenced in yard. And for your purrfect kitty, I'll follow their lead to make sure they're comfortable with snuggles or space and ensure they're litter box is fresh and clean. I'll follow your instructions for food, water, and activity.

“Brittany was fantastic! She was super responsive, available last minute, and kind. Huckleberry loved his day with her and her dog, a sweet border collie, and the two became the best of friends and played for hours! I’ll definitely use Brittany’s services again.”


About: Hi! I'm Audrey! I'm currently a stay at home mama, so my schedule is very flexible! I am happy to do a meet and greet with you & your fur baby before we get scheduled, please reach out if you have questions! I can't wait to talk to you! More about me: I grew up in a home with dogs from the time that I was a baby - I can't ever remember a time in my life where I didn't have a fur baby. I was first rescued by my dog, Kiah, when I was 13 years old. I currently have 2 dogs and 3 dog friendly cats (though these kitties stay in separate rooms away from the areas your animals would be). If you have an animal that needs shots, medications, or any special needs - I'm the girl for you; I have personal experience with my own animals that have needed shots, medicines, etc. For dog walking: I'm a stay at home mama so I have plenty of time during the day to stop in to see your baby! I can do anywhere between 15 minute walks to 60 minute walks. For doggy daycare or boarding: Still a stay at home mom - ha! This means I am home most of the day unless I am taking other pups on walks. My husband also works from home so there is someone here a majority of the time, unless we are going grocery shopping that weekend! We also have three dog loving kids! Our dogs spend a lot of time playing in the backyard and resting snuggled up on our couches. For dog walking: I love being outside - so spending quality time with your baby on a walk is important to me! I always make sure to have water accessible for your baby before/after a walk as well. On our walks, I'll make sure to have bags to pick up any bathroom needs as well! For doggy daycare & boarding: We are home a majority of the time, when we aren't home we always prefer to crate dogs that are crate trained that way they are able to stay safe! If they aren't, we are happy to work with you & see what you do with your baby when you're gone. We never leave two dogs that aren't familiar with each other alone in the same room either!
