“Second time having Alan Michael watch Stella and second time he was available last minute for me, this time same day. He takes great care of her and I have peace of mind leaving her in his care. He'll definitely be the first person I look for when I need it.”

“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!”
“Ava was great! She is one of the best sitters I have had so far, she did exactly everything that I asked if her. I loved all of the picture she sent throughout the day and that made me feel at ease although I was 300 miles away. My apartment felt even cleaner than I left it! My cat was seemed happy and content when I came back - she wasn’t clingy at all like she didn’t miss me much lol. I would definitely ask Ava to sit my place again. Highly recommend her.”

“Jenna was very attentive with my dog and with taking in all of my instructions and notes about him. She sent me pictures and kept me updated throughout the day. Highly recommend as a sitter and will definitely book with her again should an opportunity come up again!”

“I highly recommend Emmelea! This was our first time using her for an overnight stay, and she exceeded all expectations. Her communication was top-notch; we received regular updates and so many cute pictures that showed how happy and well-cared-for our pup was. She truly treated him like her own. We feel so lucky to have found her and will 100% book with her again!”

“Katie sent LOTS of updates and pictures. She was great with Willow and River, especially knowing River can be nervous with new people. She had him cuddling with her in no time. Would 100% recommend!”

“Loved having M at my house. My dogs were calm and relaxed when I got home and they had water (pet peeve coming home to no water) and they had taken care of everything the way I asked while I was gone for several days. Would 100% hire them again. My dogs are picky about who they like sometimes too.”

“Kaitlyn was an excellent care giver and companion to my senior pup. Kaitlyn made wonderful suggestions and accommodations to Lacey’s diet. Lacey was well-loved. 🥰In addition, she was conscientious in ensuring the house stayed neat.”

“Willow was wonderful with my 13 year old dog. He was flexible and easy to work with. Stayed at my house until I returned home! Reliable, stayed in touch with pictures and texts. Willl use him again!”

About: I have years of experience providing reliable and passionate pet care for all ages and sizes. I am also experienced in puppy training, senior care, and providing medication if needed. I take the utmost care to ensure that your pup's safety and wellbeing are always my top priority. I work from home so I am flexible in that regard. I can take my work around any space if needed and work around your schedule. I clean up after pets thoroughly as well as provide them with lots of potty breaks and exercise. I never have them meet new dogs for their safety.
“Kate was great! She was super communicative and sent us lots of pictures while we were gone. We could tell our pup had good exercise and was well taken care of while we were gone, and our house was just as we left it. We will definitely book Kate again in the future!”

“Gabrielle is always great to have watch Rufus. Communicates well and I always come home to a clean house and a happy boy :) Thank you for everything, Gabrielle!”

“I am so glad Donai was in town and able to sit for Leo on such short notice. I had Donai sit before Rover and did an amazing job, Leo loves Donai and I was updated with pictures during the visits. I give 5 stars for sure! Highly recommended ❤️”

“Becca was very sweet and attentive to our babies needs! She kept us updated with daily pictures and messages about how they were doing. Will definitely continue hiring her in the near future!”

About: I have taken care of dogs of all different breeds and ages for several years. Most recently, I provided long term care for an elderly dog with high anxiety. She required extra patience and special care— two things that I would be able to provide your animal as well! I am available before or after work on weekdays for drop-in visits or walks. I am available full-time on weekends for the same two services. I offer updates to pet owners after every drop-in visit or walk. I prioritize safety and wellness with constant supervision and being mindful of my surroundings.
About: I have watched cats and dogs (including puppies) for years! I have two special needs cats and a senior special needs dog. I have so much patience and love for animals and have managed to transform the lives of my 3 pets mentioned above simply through giving them the space they need, the love they need, and the attention they ask for. I work in animal care and have animals at home to care for as well, so caring for other's animals fits into place around my work schedule. I am able to do drop-ins before 9:00am and after 6:00pm (5:00pm on weekends). I care for pets in their home and do my best to mind people's privacy and focus on the pet. My visits include food and water refreshes, scooping litter as needed, and lots of cuddles and playtime. I will always send pictures and updates about our visits.
“Mandy was amazing. Wonderful communication, sent pictures and updates, and followed my high drive dogs’ routines and rules. She was extremely cleanly and respectful of the house. One of the best dog sitter I’ve ever had!”


About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have been pet sitting dogs and cats since my early teens. I have experience caring for pets of all ages and medical needs, including diabetic dogs requiring insulin injections, blind dogs, pets with seizures, and dogs with mobility and potty issues. I’m comfortable administering medications and providing extra patience and attention to senior pets or those needing specialized care. I’ve also fostered dogs and cats through my local shelter, caring for everything from puppies and kittens learning the ropes to senior dogs needing diapers and additional support. My experience fostering has helped me become adaptable, calm, and attentive to each pet’s unique personality and needs. I currently have two dogs of my own, Murphy and Lucky, they are my whole heart and I love every pet I care as if they were part of my family. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I work overnight shifts from 9pm–5am, Monday-Friday, which gives me a flexible daytime schedule. I’m able to adjust my sleep schedule as needed, so I have plenty of availability for walks, drop-ins, feeding schedules, medication administration, playtime, and overnight care. In my home, I do my best to create a safe and comfortable environment where pets can feel relaxed, cared for, and entertained. I have a fully fenced-in yard that backs up to a park, which gives dogs plenty of space for supervised outdoor time, play, and exercise. I also have a separate guest room available if an owner prefers their pet to have their own quiet space during their stay with us. I understand that every pet has different routines and comfort levels, so I try to keep their schedule as consistent as possible with feeding times, potty breaks, walks, medications, playtime, and rest. I’m happy to accommodate senior pets, puppies, and pets with medical or mobility needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure they feel comfortable in their familiar environment while keeping up with their normal routine and giving them plenty of attention, affection, and companionship. I always treat both pets and homes with respect and care, and I know how important communication and reliability are while you’re away from your pets. I love to send parent’s updates on their babies and we can work out details on how frequently you would like pictures sent!
Old Louisville pet parents share their Rover experiences
Donai was amazing and we’ll be working with her again! Our finicky old gal, Meeka, wasn’t a fan at first (like she is with everyone, not Donai’s fault). But Donai was patient with her and let Meeka warm up to her in her own way. Donai walked her daily and followed our feeding directions and took great care of her like she was her own. By day 2 Meeka let Donai’s pet her and by day 3 there were cuddles and Meeka wouldn’t leave her side. Thank you so much!

This was my first time using Katie and I couldn’t be more impressed. From the start, her communication was prompt and reassuring — exactly what you need when leaving your pup with someone new. Camo clearly had a wonderful time; you could just tell he was comfortable and well cared for. What really set Katie apart was coming home to a clean house with fresh sheets — she didn’t just watch Camo, she treated my home with total respect. That kind of thoughtfulness is rare and it means everything. She was reliable, punctual, and went above and beyond in every way. I will absolutely be booking Katie again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter they can truly trust. 🐾

Brooke was so wonderful with our two dogs!!! It was such a relief to find someone to take care of both our dogs while all my family was out of town. She did great giving one dog medicine and with making food for a picky dog. Also our house was well taken care of. I would definitely recommend Brooke and I will be using her again.

Ryo stayed at our home and watched our Pit Bull for the weekend and was wonderful! Great communication, sent us lots of photos, followed all our instructions and we came home to a clean house and happy pup. Very grateful to have found him and will def work with him again in the future!

Montana was fantastic! We were so nervous as we had never left our babies before. I wrote way too many notes and she read and followed them all and took amazing care of all of our puppies. They absolutely loved her and I couldn’t have been happier 🩷🩷 Thank you for taking such good care of our babies 🩷🐺🐾

Anthony is amazing!! We had a sitter cancel last minute and reached out to Anthony. He responded right away and was happy to watch our energetic pitbull for a week despite the very short notice. He sent us lots of pics throughout the week and we were able to enjoy our vacay knowing our pup was being well taken care of. We came home to a clean house and happy pup!
