“Leslie did such an amazing job with our babies! We hadn’t had much luck relying on our friends to watch them so we decided to try out Rover and it has been the best decision we ever made. She sent us several pictures throughout the time we were gone and when we returned, all the animals and the house were in great shape! We couldn’t be more pleased and will definitely be booking with her again in the future.”


“Katie was a perfect caretaker for our dogs while we were away getting married. She eased my worries about leaving the dogs alone for the first time with someone that wasn’t family. She gave us detailed updates every day. We will definitely use her services again and we highly recommend her to take care of your pets!”


“Kylie was absolutely wonderful with my dog and two feral cats that I care for. She’s kind, responsive, and kept me up to date on everything happening with my pup and home. She left my house clean and even washed and changed my sheets! I trust her completely with my babies.”


About: I have experience with dogs of all kinds. One thing that separates myself from other dog walkers is that I treat each pet how I would treat my own and I treat my own like my kids. My goal is to provide the same care for your dogs as I expect for mine. Pet care is a major part of my daily and weekly routine since I own a dog walking/sitting business. I am almost always available to meet my clients needs for their furry companions. The only times when I am not available is when I am coaching basketball. Unfortunately, I do not care for pets at my home. However, when caring for pets in your home I will keep them on the exact routine as they are accustomed to to make them as comfortable as possible.

“Owen was fantastic! He communicated well and took such great care of our sweet pup. He also took immaculate care of the house. We already have him booked for another trip. We are grateful to have found him - our pup loves him!”


“Marigold took excellent care of our pets and our home while we were away. Both pets clearly adored her and we had such peace of mind knowing they were having a nice time and staying in their routine. We received tons of photos - with every update it was clear that the pets were happy! We wouldn’t hesitate to call Marigold again.”


“Gabrielle was great! Very responsive, left the house clean and tidy. My dog looks well cared for and loved while I was away. Appreciate everything! Will use her help again!”


About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats, and over the years I’ve cared for pets of all ages—from playful puppies and kittens to sweet senior companions. In addition to caring for my own pets, I’ve helped family and friends with their furry loved ones, whether it was pet-sitting, walking, or giving them some extra love and attention while their humans were away. Right now, I help my roommate with her rescue pup whenever she needs an extra hand. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I’m committed to making them feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Lots of cuddles, belly rubs, and silly voices included—unless they’re too cool for that. As a student with just one in-person class, Monday through Thursday from 12:30–2:10 PM, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to pet care throughout the week. I’m mostly available before and after class, as well as on weekends depending on the timing. I also like to stay active and make it a point to go on a 30-minute walk daily—having a furry companion to join me makes it even better! Whether it’s a walk, some playtime, or just keeping a pet company while you’re away, I love building that into my daily routine. When caring for pets in my home, I make sure they have a safe, cozy, and calm environment. I live in an apartment with a spacious layout, and I can comfortably host your dog either in my room or the shared living room—whatever works best for their comfort and routine. The neighborhood around my apartment is great for walks, with lots of green space and quiet streets. I also frequent a park just a 5-minute drive away for longer walks, playtime, or a change of scenery if your dog enjoys adventure. Whether we’re hanging out inside or getting those daily steps in, your pet will get lots of attention, love, and exercise.

About: Through my own dog, bear, I have developed a care and compassion for animals. Animals are my passion, and I plan to pursue this passion in marine biology after my undergraduate at JcTc to preserve the biodiversity of our planet. I am a graduate cum laude from high school, I have a total flexibility on weekdays, before 2:00pm on Fridays, and my weekends are open. I have a fenced in backyard, my pet has regular vet visits, I am responsible for insuring my dog the proper amount of nutrition each day. I understand the importance of daily walks, and use a leash at all times.

“Betsy is amazing, highly recommend! She took great care of our three dogs and several house-plants while we were traveling for 5 days over the holiday weekend. Our two smaller dogs can be a little feisty with new people but they instantly liked Betsy at our meet-and-greet (which is rare!) and bonded even more during her stay. Our 1 yr old Pitt is very high energy and can be a handful, but again, Betsy handled her like a pro. Even our friends at the local dog park commented on how great she was with all of them, taking them out for daily socializing and exercise, which is their favorite part of each day. Betsy was also a perfect house guest, leaving our place just as we'd left it and keeping us up to date with messages and photos throughout. Thank you Betsy, we look forward to having you stay again soon!”


About: I treat every pet like they’re my own, taking time to understand their unique personality, routines, and needs. I have had many animals of my own my whole life along with pet sitting for many family members, friends, and neighbors. I am a certified veterinary assistant and have worked in a vet office for over a year now and with my hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and other animals, I’m trained to handle everything from shy rescues to high-energy pups. Pet care is a core part of my daily and weekly life — not just a job, but a commitment I truly enjoy. I build my schedule around my clients’ pets to ensure consistency, comfort, and reliability. Caring for pets in their own home keeps their environment consistent and stress-free. I follow your pet’s regular schedule for meals, potty breaks, walks, and medication. I stick to your instructions for house rules, routines, and preferences. I tidy up after myself (and your pet), water plants, bring in mail, and keep your home secure. I provide updates and photos so you know your pet is safe, happy, and getting plenty of attention. Whether in my home or yours, your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities.

“Rachel is a great house and dog sitter! My place was well taken care of, and even more importantly, I came home to a happy doggo. I could tell that my good boy had the attention and care that he needed while I was gone and it’s so nice to have that peace of mind while out of town. I would absolutely recommend Rachel to anyone that loves their pet!”


About: I’ve loved dogs (and cats) since I can remember! I’ve taken care of dogs for about 3 years now, whether that be family, friends, and/or neighbors pets. I am a full time student at the University of Louisville but will have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am available during the week and some weekends. I keep my eyes on your fur baby at all times to ensure they’re not getting into any trouble and are safe. Will follow all instructions regarding your fur baby.

“Ana was fantastic! Very professional and took great care of my girls. She was also very accommodating when Mother Nature pushed our start time back by a few hours at the last minute. I highly recommend her services.”


“Jackie was truly helpful when I needed her at the last minute. She spent time with my pup and was super communicative throughout her time with him. Jackie also sent check-in photos. Jackie spent the night at my home and washed the bedding she used.”
