“Taylor went so far above and beyond for my 2 cats, I can’t recommend him enough. Communication was great and it’s obvious he genuinely cares about the animals he cares for. He deserves the highest possible rating and I will absolutely book with Taylor again.”
“Gabriella was very invested in our cat’s wellbeing while we were gone and went above and beyond. She made sure he had company and got everything he needed. I really appreciated her time investment and transparent, picture-laden updates at every check-in. Definitely recommended to book her!”
“Thank you Maria! You are always so helpful!!”
About: I've been an animal lover and owner all my life (dogs, cats, hamsters, gerbils, horses, goats, pot-belly pigs, etc.) until a few years ago when I lost my last dog. I decided then that I wasn't going to get a new dog or cat, at least for now, and only love on others' pets. I've been pet and housesitting for the last five+ years, am extremely responsible, and have excellent local references. I'm a freelance book editor and formatter working from home (I also build websites), have a flexible schedule, and am able to work from anywhere with good wifi signal that I can have access to. I also work a part-time job in Oldham County that I go to several times a week so pets must be able to stay alone at least 7 hours at a time. Because I primarily work from wherever I'm staying, I cannot stay with high-maintenance pets who require a high amount of attention. I am living in the east end of Louisville (Prospect) area and would love to help you with your pet needs! Non-smoking homes only please! Rates for house and pet sitting are for a 24 hour period, so anything beyond that will be an additional $15.00/hour (or a full-day rate, whichever is less - NOT the extended care rates just added by Rover that they will not let me remove). Please let me know if you have any questions! Since I work a part-time job, the pets must be able to stay at home for at least 7 hours at a time. Other days I work from wherever I'm staying. Each pet and family have various needs so I will discuss particulars with you before the stay to make sure it's a good fit for everyone.
“We are so happy to have found Jenna on Rover. She is wonderful with our two dogs. She is reliable and very detail oriented. We felt very confident and comfortable going out of town. We looked forward to getting her reports and lots of pictures while we were away. Thank you Jenna!”
About: I have a few years of training puppies and senior care of dogs/cats under my belt. I was pre-vet in college, so I am qualified to deal with all kinds of furry (and not so furry) friends. I work from home 2-5 hours a day so I have plenty of time to hang out with my animal friends!! I workout a ton outside and would love an exercise partner. Most weekends I am either outside gardening or hanging with my own dog. Dogs- I own a doodle and am prepared with how to deal with dogs of all ages. Cats- I do not own any cats, but cat-sit my neighbors cat all the time. Lots of experience with them. All other furry friends- Since I was pre-vet, I was trained on how to deal with all kinds of animals. I have an invisible fence for my dog and I do live in a neighborhood. Most of my neighbors either don’t have dogs (so they won’t become aggressive with yours) or have pets that have crossed the rainbow bridge.
“Lindsey did a great job of taking care of our kitties. Would recommend her and I would use her again.”
About: I have always taken care of dogs from my families to my friends. About 4 years ago I got my first dog and have enjoyed the process of being a pet parent. I understand leaving your dog can be stressful but I check in frequently because I understand that stress myself! I am a college student!! I have decently free schedules with having classes on Mon/Wed 11-430pm and Tue/Thurs 2-430PM. Fridays and Weekends are completely open! With Cats, I always make sure to check around the house for accidents and then take the litter out at least once a day. I’ll feed your cat according to the instructions provided and make sure water bowls are filled. I also like to make sure that a cat has at least 30 minutes of time to play and receive love. With dogs, I make sure to take them out during each visit for a potty break. I make sure to feed them according to Instructions and make sure water is full. I also like to check the house for accidents if they are free roam. I make sure to play for at least 30 minutes each visit that way they feel relaxed and happy!
“Absolutely fantastic. Highly recommend.”
“Lauren & Joseph took great care of our GSD russ while we were out on vacation! Photos of every drop-in were provided and communication was excellent. They went above and beyond by cleaning up after our dog in his backyard area!! Would definitely suggest going with them if you’re looking for exceptional care and will definitely be using them in the future!!”
About: I truly love all animals and have the skills to care for any pet, whether you have a furbaby that needs special care or an exotic pet. From the family dog to my aunt's 8 cats and horseback riding to fully planted fishtanks and my pet rabbit and snake, I love every opportunity to make a new furry (or scaley) friend. ¡Hablo español básico! Me encantaría una oportunidad para practicar el español y ayudarte con tus mascotas al mismo tiempo. I work an editing job from my laptop, so I can make anything fit into my schedule. For housesitting, I'd prefer not to stay overnight; however, I know that some pets need that special care and would love to discuss this with you. I understand that each pet and their owner have a unique lifestyle and training, and I will follow whatever directions and care is needed. I highly train and socialize my pets. Nugget, my rabbit, is free roam and litter trained and knows various tricks!
“Went several extra steps to accommodate for the drop in. Would rehire!”
About: Hi! My name is Allie! My life revolves around my two border collies. We are constantly off finding adventures...hiking down new trails, swimming in lakes, herding sheep! Of course, we love an inside, sit on the couch type of day, as well. Whichever kind of day your pet needs, I would love the opportunity to care for them. I attended three years of veterinary technician school and have worked in several hospitals and shelter settings. From all those experiences, I learned how to interact with different personalities and treat medical emergencies. I am now in a different field that allows me to work from home the majority of the time. Therefore, I will be available to spend all day with your pets! I have also had horses my whole life and grew up working on ranches. If you have a hobby farm or other animals that need to be cared for, I am happy to do that as well! Feel free to message me with any questions you may have. I can't wait to meet you and your furry ones! I work from home most days. If I am called away, then it is for a couple hours at a time. My goal is to never leave your pup alone for more than a couple of hours. In that time, they can either be crated or have full access to our guest room for all their napping needs. :) I have a very large, fully fenced in backyard to play in. I have two border collies that have never met a stranger. Depending on your dogs needs, we will take the proper steps to ensure every one is safe and happy for the entirety of their stay.
About: I have taken care and had animals in my home for around 19 years now. I absolutely love animals, I love taking care of them and playing with them on a daily basis. I am willing to take care of your pet in every single way possible.:) I work at target part time, so my schedule ranges from 7:30 AM in the morning to around three or four in the afternoon. I’m a big morning person, so I am able to get up earlier than my scheduled shift time and take care of animals. As well, I am able to take care of them after my shifts and even dedicate more of my time to them on my off days. unfortunately, my yard does not have a fence, however, we do have a pretty spacious backyard and I am able to keep an eye on them and play with them all throughout their outside experience.
“Abbey was so accommodating to watch our cats last minute. And she was great with notes and photos every day. We will want her to come again next time we travel!”

“She took such amazing care of my babies!! Everything was neat and clean. Great communication. Administered pet medication. So happy with her care while i was away. Thank you!!”
About: What sets me apart from other dog sitters is my experience and genuine love for animals. I have been caring for dogs since childhood, which has deepened my understanding of their behaviors and needs. As a proud owner of a friendly lab, I ensure that every pup feels safe, loved, and engaged. My compassionate nature means that your dog will receive personalized attention and affection, making them feel at home. I understand the importance of routine and playtime, ensuring your furry friend enjoys their time with me. Trust me to provide a nurturing and fun environment for your beloved dog! As a college student in the nursing program, I aim to spend my free time caring for dogs, enjoying their company, and enriching my life through their playful and loving nature. Although my landlord does not allow pets, I strive to provide exceptional care for my clients' pets in the comfort of their own homes, ensuring they feel loved and happy.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 8 years old! Friends, family & neighbors have relied on me to walk, feed, and play with their pets while they are working or away on vacation! I have recently trained my two puppies, and prior to that trained my sisters dog for several years. I also have experience administering medication to both cats and dogs! I currently work full time in a peds ER from mid afternoon to late evening. I’m available for early morning drop ins, mid day check ins and night time checks. I am a trusting individual who will follow your same routine you have with your pet to ensure they are happy and safe while you are out of town!
About: I’ve taken care of all types of pets including cats, dogs..No matter the animal I will take care of them like they are my own!
