“We came from out of town looking for someone to take care of our Lab for the day while we visited the bourbon trail. We found Jessica. She was awesome and took great care of our dog. Our dog was completely comfortable and had a great time in her fenced yard. We highly recommend her ! We gave her 5 STARS! Thank you Jessica”


“Rachel was great and so accommodating. We were just traveling through Louisville and it was great to know our dog was in good hand while we were visiting around town. She communicated with me throughout the day and she definitely took my dog on a few nice walks because when we got in the car from picking him up he was ready for a nap!”

“Stephen and Angela provided daycare for about 2 weeks for my pup. They took great care of him and were very understanding with schedule changes. I would recommend them!”

“Sharon & Wesley are absolutely wonderful! My dog, Salem, is incredibly nervous and skittish around most people. Sharon & Wesley did such a fantastic job ensuring Salem was comfortable and happy throughout his visit. They sent me so many messages, pictures and videos which I loved and appreciated! So happy to have met Sharon & Wesley through Rover!!”
“Jared and Waverly were great with our dogs, and even managed to get my curmudgeon named skittles to positively interact with a couple older dogs! They were flexible and understanding of my changing schedule, as we were on a road trip and only needed help for a few hours. If I’m ever in Louisville with the doggos again I’d contact them straightaway”

“Took great care of our buddy and was so flexible! She took him on walks and to the park, he loved playing with her doggos too. Would 100% have her on watch him again!”

“Suki had a great time! Mariah was very sweet and texted immediately whenever I was being a nervous Nelly and checking in on my pup. Suki came home and went straight to sleep so I count that as a win!”

“Kaitlan is very professional and communicated with me by text promptly every time. We are in a motorhome and use Rover to find out of town pet sitters so we can find a safe place for my pups to stay during the day while we tour different areas. She was great.”

“Sarah and family greeted Lucy at the door. She happily ran off following the kids for a fun evening! She loves kids! Sarah was easy to work with our uncertain time frame! E McCoy and Lucy”

About: I’ve had dogs all of my life, have taken training courses, read books on positive training practices, and volunteered at shelters. I am a writer who works from home with a 3 year old 12.5lb playful doxie/terrier mix who needs walks early and often — so much of my day is spent on slow sniffaris and trips to the park. I live alone in a large apartment with several plush dog beds strewn about, so there is plenty of space to stretch and play — and my couch sits along three large windows where dogs can perch to watch the passersby. If your dog needs a sitter or a sleepover, I’d love to have them — and my little pup would love it even more. Since I’m around all day, I’m available to meet your dog’s special needs — administering medicine, adhering to feeding times, playing tug of war, whatever the case may be. We have warm and happy home full of natural treats waiting for you and your dog. I work from home and so am available to fulfill your dog’s needs without bother! I never leave my own dog for more than a few hours at a time so you can rest easy knowing your dog is getting the focus and energy they need. Dogs in my home get many daily walks, at least one trip to the park every day — and most of all sensitive and informed care. My family makes fun of me for how attentive I am to my own dog, brushing his teeth and treating him with healthy snacks, watching him closely for changes in behavior and physical afflictions. Your dog would receive the same care (plus or minus the teeth brushing). And you will receive as many photos as you can handle ensuring they are having fun.
About: I’m a proud dog mom who knows firsthand how much peace of mind it brings to have someone you can trust with your furry family member. As a veteran volunteer at the KY Humane Society, I’ve spent years helping with behavior, enrichment, and adoption, giving me experience with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and needs. Beyond volunteering, I routinely care for friends’ animals and treat each one with the same love, patience, and consistency I give my own. Whether it’s a high-energy pup who needs long walks, or a shy dog who needs gentle encouragement, I’m ready to meet them where they’re at. Your pet’s safety, wellness, and happiness are always my top priorities, and I look forward to giving them the care, attention, and adventures they deserve. Our world revolves around our two dogs. As business owners working from home, my husband and I are always present, loving, and devoted to pets. Safety and care are always at the heart of what I do, both on walks and within my home. As a devoted dog mom and longtime KY Humane Society volunteer, I know how important it is to protect pets while giving them loving attention. Our home is fully set up with your pet’s safety in mind—we have a secure fenced-in backyard for exercise, dog-proofed rooms, and baby gates to create safe, comfortable spaces. I closely monitor every pet, avoid unsafe situations, and tailor care to each animal’s age, energy, and temperament. From harness checks to reading body language, I ensure your pet feels secure, loved, and happy. Friends and family have trusted me with their pets for years, and I will treat yours with the same care and attention as my own.
“Tina was great! This was our first time with a new rover in a new city. She was very communicative, sent great photos, and flexible on a last minute booking. Her home has a great yard for a pup to roam. I would definitely book with her again. Felt very safe leaving our dog with her and her family :)”

About: I’ve had pugs for over a decade and a French bulldog briefly. I’ve sat for my friends and cousins corgis, golden retrievers and Boston terriers. Love the snores, the drools, and cuddling with them. Dogs are always welcome on my furniture and in the bed. I enjoy pampering them with belly rubs, butt scratches, massages and just goofing around with them. I work different jobs and at times have flexible schedule. Also I work close to my home so it’s easy for me to come home and check on the guest doggies at home if needed. I stay in a condo building and I can walk them (on leash) around the condo. My condo complex has a nice walking path for dog walks and it is a fairly quiet with very little traffic. Plenty of green space around. I have a small fenced in private yard too.
