“Rhonda was great! This was the first time I had used the services of Rover.com, and I was incredibly pleased. Rhonda stayed at my place with two dogs for a 4 day period, and I came home to two happy pups instead of two dogs that were visibly stressed. Great experience!”
“Sarah was a great sitter! The dogs were happy and she kept everything neat around the house. She understood when our flight was delayed due to storms. Will definitely recommend.”
About: I’ve spent the last 6 years caring for dogs and cats. Whether it’s feeding time, playtime, or just making sure your animals feel safe and loved, I’ve got it covered. I treat every pet like they’re my own. Pet care fits naturally into my day—before work, after work, and in the evenings. I always be sure to make the pet I’m looking after my first priority! I understand that every pet is unique, so I always follow your care and safety instructions exactly as provided. Whether it’s feeding schedules, medication, routines, or special needs, I’ll make sure your pet gets the care they’re used to.
About: I’ve been pampering pets since I was a young whippersnapper. I adore all creatures and I’d be thrilled to hang out with yours while you’re away! Lifelong animal enthusiast with a work-from-home setup—perfect for quick pop-ins or flexible visits. My schedule shifts often, so if you need care in my area, feel free to check in. I might just be your pet’s next favorite human. I’d love to host your pet, but my dog insists she’s an only child. Plus, I’m currently bunking with family, so it’s more of a “no room at the inn” situation. But I’m totally available for drop-ins, walks and overnights 🐾
About: I have over 18 years of personal experience and am so happy to have made a career helping dogs and owners. I am home full time and have the help of my kids, as well as our two dogs. We ❤️ dog psychology and behavior. We provide supervision, exercise and play. Your dog will be interacting with our “pack” of friendly dogs and family. Manners and house training will be enforced in a positive atmosphere. We have a fenced in 1/4 acre yard and a 500 sqft indoor play area. We have indoor fencing and gates to separate dogs if needed. We offer meet & greets, as well as curb side drop off and pickup. You don’t even have to get out of your car if you prefer! We are conveniently located, approximately 10 minutes from I-65 and the Scottsville rd exit (Exit 22), with lots of space to be a dog!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all kinds! From golden doodle puppies to Labrador seniors I’ve cared for them! I had a childhood dog that I spent ever day with for 14 years that just recently passed but my mom and I cared for her every day. She had many dietary needs and help as she became older so I’m very familiar with those challenges! I’m also familiar with the challenges with many puppies as I used to puppy sit for an old friend in college who had a sweet baby with MANY needs (as most fur babies do:)). I love to meet new sweet animals every day and can’t wait to hopefully meet yours!!! I’m a recent college graduate currently in the job-search phase, so I’m very free any day of the week for animals! Weekdays are preferred, but weekends are totally doable with enough notice! I currently cannot house animals at my home due to owning a huge German shepherd who isn’t the best with new faces sadly. But, I’m more than available to meet you at your home and care for your pets as needed any time of day!

“I would give Kennedy 100 stars if I could! She was an absolute team player and stepped in immediately when we had another bad sitter experience. Kennedy took on the job with little to no insight and not getting to meet us or our pets ahead of time. She took over in the most effortless way and let us enjoy the remainder of our vacation knowing our pets were in such excellent hands! She communicated very well and even communicated more to ease our anxiety. Kennedy is a rockstar and took initiative on asking if I needed any care of stuff I didn’t mention in my notes or a drop in before we made it home! Words will never be enough to praise her great work ethic. She truly cares about your pets like her own. Thank you for absolutely everything you did to help us Kennedy!”
About: Hey there! I’m Haley. If you’re anything like me, your pets are family. 🩷🩷 I’m confident with pets of all ages, sizes, temperaments, and medical needs. Whether your pet needs medications at specific times, your cat is skittish around new people, or your senior pup needs a little extra TLC — I’ve got it handled with patience, experience, and a whole lot of heart. I genuinely pay attention to the little things — their habits, moods, body language, what makes them feel at ease — and I always aim to make their time with me feel like a safe, happy extension of home. I’m especially tuned in to pets with anxiety or special needs. I know how hard it can be to leave your fur baby behind, and I do everything I can to make that process feel smooth and comforting for both of you. Expect open communication, photo updates, and lots of love given in your absence. I’m not just a sitter — I’m a calm presence, a routine-keeper, a play buddy, and most importantly, someone who genuinely loves animals. I treat every pet like they’re my own. If that sounds like what you’ve been looking for, I’d love to meet you (and your four-legged bestie)!🩷 Pet care is part of my everyday life—I build my schedule around your pet’s needs. Whether it’s morning feedings, mid-day walks, or evening check-ins, I make sure your pet’s routine stays consistent and stress-free. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which makes me available for frequent visits and extended stays if needed. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. In your home, I keep their space clean, secure, and familiar. I follow all your routines and instructions closely—whether it’s crate time, diet, or meds. In my home, I maintain a quiet space with plenty of supervision. I communicate with pet parents frequently, with photos and updates for peace of mind.
“Thank you so much, Kayla! You were there to help us get our precious dog from the vet to the hospital while dealing with my chemo brain. You were there to listen and concerned for our dog. Wish you only the best in life. God bless you.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I was 13, and it’s something I truly love. My family has trusted me over the years to bathe, feed, and sit their pets, and I currently have a friendly cat of my own. I treat every pet like they’re part of the family—with patience, attention, and lots of care. Whether it’s playtime or quiet time, I adapt to each pet’s needs and personality to make sure they feel safe and loved. I am currently a college student at Western while working one day a week at a gift shop. My schedule is open most days to care for pups and kitties! I live in a house with a fenced yard to play in, including a sweet cat if clients prefer to board in my house. I can also care for pets in the comfort of their home if provided! I am flexible with what situation I’m dealt with. I’m able to send updates, pictures, or calls if they also want to check up on their baby!
About: I grew up in a pug household and have been around animals since birth. Now, I share my home with three cats and have a passion for aquatic life, caring for two vibrant communities of African Dwarf Frogs and Gouramis. With a combined lifelong love for animals and a commitment to their well-being, I strive to provide the highest quality of care for your beloved pets. I’m available to care for your pets when you need someone dependable. Whether it’s drop-in visits, walks, or overnight sitting, I’m here to give your pets the love and attention they deserve.

About: I've have been a dog owner almost all of my life. I have taken care of our own family dogs as well as taking care of pets for other family members. Would love to help in taking care of your fur babies while you are away. While I still do work full time, all of my children are grown so can devote the time necessary to taking care of your pets. We do have two dogs and a cat in our house so know how important it is to maintain their routine as much as possible. If overnight care is needed I would stay in your home to keep them in their own environment and also keep them in their own routine.
About: As a lifelong dog owner and dedicated animal lover, I have spent years nurturing my passion for canine companionship. My journey began working at a humane society, where I learned the importance of compassion and care for our furry friends. I’ve expanded my experience in vet offices and boarding kennels, developing a deep understanding of pet needs and behaviors. Now, I’m thrilled to call a 6-acre farm my home, a space where I can provide love and care to animals of all kinds. I can't wait to meet your beloved pets and ensure they receive the exceptional care they deserve! I work from home and own a small farm, so I'm here fulltime and am very flexible with my schedule. I can accomodate boarding onsite anytime. Walks and in home drop ins would be more of a weekend accomodation for me if further than 20 miles away. I have a fenced in farm with 3 guard dogs to oversee the safety of our home. Inside boarding available as well as socialization with farmlife/other animals if wanted.

He always makes sure they get the same love and care we give. He has frequently stayed with our animals in our home for a full week. He is clean, caring, and courteous. Patrick also takes care of all my small farm animals when he is here. I would not trust anyone else with their care!”
Joli O.
“Joli has been sitting my pets and children for over 25 years. She is wonderful, like the Auntie/Sister we love having around. She has tended not only my 3 daughters but our Australian Shepherds, Wolf Hound, Tabby cat, and fed our chickens. She is trustworthy and friendly with our home, keys, passwords to our gates. Our pets, children and my husband and I all think the world of her. She is the kind of person you can go out of town for a week and truly not worry that lights will be left on, gates and house will be locked and she follows all the directions you leave her. She is always accessible and reliable. She will have your back.”
Sara S.
“If you're looking for someone to care for your dog, there is no better option than Sara! On top of being a dog-lover through and through, she is absolutely fantastic at incorporating training into her caretaking time. She has studied hours of dog training courses, as well as put it into practice in real life. Sara is adamant about providing appropriate amounts of exercise and entertainment, allowing the dog to freely choose the activity and supplying the toys/tools/physical energy required to support them as they play. In addition to these dog-specific attributes, Sara is a very attentive and observant person in general. Whether in the car, walking on the street, or running around inside the house, Sara will be paying close attention to the dog and will quickly step in as soon as any problem arises. Loving, intelligent, and adept, Sara will calm the fears of anyone hesitant to leave their dog to a stranger--you can rest easily knowing that she will provide the absolute best care while you're away!”
