About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience caring for pets with very different needs. I currently own a high energy, high maintenance three year old Labradoodle, a senior 16 year old Dachshund who requires gentle, attentive care, and two cats so I’m comfortable balancing play, structure, patience, and affection all at once. I also have experience pet-sitting for a police officer with six cats while he was on vacation, which taught me how to manage multiple pets, routines, medications, and individual personalities responsibly. I take pride in being dependable, observant, and treating every pet as if they’re my own—making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. I am working part time so it genuinely fits into my daily life just perfect! I help run a restaurant so my schedule can be altered as needed for days on Rover I may have scheduled. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize safety, trust, and maintaining a calm, respectful environment. I follow all care instructions closely, keep doors and gates secure, and remain attentive to changes in behavior or health. I treat every home with the same respect I would my own—keeping things clean, organized, and secure while maintaining the pet’s normal routine to reduce stress. I do communicate consistently with updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets and home are in good hands. My goal is always to create a safe, comfortable environment where pets feel relaxed and owners feel complete peace of mind.
About: I've been around dogs and animals my entire life. My oldest dog has been with me since I was 17 so she's going on 13 years old. I have a 5 year old Great Dane and German Australian mix that I've had since puppies. I'm great at teaching puppies sit, lay down, and recalling. (I'm not a professional by no means) I raised an elder iguana for 6 years before she passed, I grew up with cats of all personalities, and rabbits. I'm not shy or jittery of reptiles, amphibians, spiders or other insects. I work a very flexible work from home job that allows me to step away any time that I need. I can guarantee that your pet will not be alone for more than 4 hours Mon to Fri and Saturday and Sunday I usually have open availability I'm calm, I know stress signals in dogs and cats, I will meet with your animals at their own pace. I will follow any care instructions you have left and I will clean up any found accidents (puppies and other non house broke animals or elderly) including if their crates need cleaned as long as the supplies are easily found without me needing to open cabinets (on a counter or table) I always avoid people and other animals on walks to minimize all risks. I'm very careful when opening door in case someone decides to run, and I don't mind getting during/slobbered on

About: Hey there! I am Kristin and after an extended time away from Rover I am back and ready to do the job I have always loved doing... taking care of animals! Just a little backstory on me: It has always been my dream to be able to love on animals so I made that happen. I worked at the Towne Square Pet Resort, which is a boarding facility for dogs and cats. I gained lots of experience caring for fur babies during my time there. After going off to college, I worked at the Western Kentucky University Horse Barn caring for quarter horses while pursuing my degree, a Bachelor of Science in Agriculture with an emphasis in Animal Science. I have since graduated, and started my own family and hobby farm. We have had dogs, sheep, goats, turkeys, ducks, guineas and LOTS of chickens. When I say I love taking care of animals, I absolutely mean it! I have volunteered my time with several pet rescues in the area and did job shadows at local vet clinics. Animals are my passion in life, they always have been! I previously was a dog sitter offering boarding in my home and had lots of great reviews. I am looking to do mostly drop ins right now but will consider boarding on a case by case basis. I do work full time so I am hoping to be available to drop in/walk on my lunch or right after work. I know this will limit me but I have hopes that this can work for some so please don't hesitate to reach out to me and see if we can make a plan work! I work full time but do have plenty of time off. I am hoping to drop in on my lunch or after work. On my days off/weekends I am much more flexible. I know animals can struggle being away from the people they love so when I drop in I will play/walk/feed your pet and give lots of lovings and reassurance until their owner can be with them.
“Perfect sitters. First time using this app and they done perfect. Well beyond the expectation and the animals loved being able to stay home. Definitely recommend using their services. I will request them before I go anywhere else.”

About: I have taken care of pets all my life! I have an enjoyment in caring for animals. It relieves a lot of anxiety and stress! I own my own pet sitting business called Fur Ever Sitters, I am licensed and Insured! My business is based around me setting up a meet and greet to know you and your Fur Babies! I then go 3 times a day (standard) to feed and water, let outside, walks, playtime. If you need less per day, I can do that as well. Pet Sitting is just something I love. I can pet sit on any of the days I am off work at my current job which is every other 7 days. I offer letting pets outside to potty, playtime, walk them, feed them, or any needs necessary. I have crates if your pet needs one. I have super friendly dogs myself. I rescued one from a puppy mill. My kids are also animal lovers like me. I have taught them all how to approach animals, how to be nice, not to be rough around them. I have a tie out, outside if needed as well!
“I really appreciate Savannah and have asked her to be my cat sitter in the future! Savannah is kind and considerate and did a great job watching my cats when I was away. She sent me pictures of my kitties, like I asked for, and she appraised me of their behavior when I was gone. I have confidence in her and I am happy that she is watching my babies when I am away. I have only positive things to say about her! ??⬛”

“Raye is awesome. She took great care of the dogs and I could tell she really loves dogs. She made sure their needs were met and gave them some extra love and attention. I will definitely recommend and use her services again.”


About: I have taken care of dogs all my life. I used to be a dog mom of a chihuahua terrier named Petunia before she passed to old age. I’ve taken care of both puppies and elderly dogs. I have helped administer medication to dogs. I work well with both small dogs and big dogs. I have taken care of massive dogs before (my aunt owns a Great Pyrenees). I have watched multiple friends and families dogs. I work well with playful dogs as well as calmer dogs that love to cuddle up. I’m currently working part-time, so I will have plenty of time to care for your beloved pets. Any days I have listed are my days off meaning I have more time to spend playing and loving your dogs! I always have some treats for my fur babies that I sit (I always double check to see any allergies pets may have before bringing treats over). If needed I have extra leashes and portable food and water bowls.
About: My Yorkie, Mocha, was my baby and love of my life for 16 years. He recently left this life leaving a hole in my heart. He was special needs and required medication and a lot of specialized care. I will treat yours just as I did Mocha. I have a big yard, plenty of good toys, and a nice neighborhood for walks. I can even make homemade meals if your fur babies would like! I have experience with puppies who need lots of attention on up to senior dogs who like a quiet, relaxing atmosphere, as well as special needs animals who need medicine or special care. I also have experience with cats and birds. I am an active bird foster but recently my last foster was adopted, so I don't have any birds in my care at the moment. I took a Cesar Millan (The Dog Whisperer) master class which gave expert advice on handling aggressive or no so well behaved animals. I agree that most people need training, along with animals lol I am currently a stay at home mom. My 15 year old son is at school during the day. We also just had grandma move in with us so there is someone home at all times. So I am available 24/7. I have a unfenced yard but it is big and abilities to crate if necessary. Smoke free home and I don't drink. Other than that, I will give your fur baby free rein of the house. I'm not picky about sharing couches or cuddles! I understand pets are more comfortable at their own home, so I am open to coming to you.

About: I am a natural at caring for and nurturing dogs which I have had since I was 3. Caring for them is a joy and a blessing. They will be pampered as if they were mine. I've taken care of puppies as well as elderly including those who need medication and special needs.

I have had both large and small dogs. About my yard Our family owns 13 acres. We have a lake on our property. Our home is not close to the road and we live in the country so there’s not a lot of traffic on the road. Our yard is not fenced in but your dog will not be left alone if it is outside. I will keep your dog on a leash at all times if that is what you prefer. We just moved to this property and built our home a few months ago and putting up a fence is one of our plans in the future. My experience administering medication I, myself, have had to give medication to my dogs many times so I am very comfortable with administering medication.
About: Hello, my name is Olivia and I love dogs! I have enjoyed taking care of dogs ever since I was little because they always put me in a good mood. I am a responsible college graduate who will primarily be home in Owensboro. I clean up after myself and am on time. I am also a very active person, so I can walk dogs multiple times every day. I've owned and taken care of 4 dogs with my family, and I have experience caring for multiple sizes, breeds, and personalities. My schedule is open and flexible mostly on weekends (some availability during the week), so I will be able to work or check in majority of the time during the coming months. I’m home most of the time on weekends and occasionally during the weekdays. I work a full time job during the week but I get breaks, so I have free time to check in on any dogs in my care! I stay with dogs most of the time I’m sitting them. I go on regular walks, so they’d get plenty of exercise. I make sure to make dogs as comfortable and happy as possible while their owners are away.
