“Lauran is an absolute dream of a companion, house sitter, fur baby manager and lover, and just overall great human. Lauran was thoughtful, responsive and responsible in every way. From sharing pics of our Simon and Molly with us, to asking questions of us as needed, to her bubbly and positive personality, to her attention to detail, she will be our go to person every time we need someone who we trust to spend time at our home and with our pups. We came home to a house nice Ethan we left it a two dogs that were clearly well taken care of while we weee away. Thank you Lauran for being such a great Rover sitter! Thank you Lauran for giving us such peace found and comfort as we traveled.”


About: I have had cats and dogs all my life. Currently I have thirteen fur/feather babies. Two cats, one Australian shepherd and ten chickens. My pup just turned a year old so I have more knowledge with younger pups. Can't wait to meet your fur babies! I am a stay at home mom and have flexible availability. I can be there for your fur babies practically whenever you need me! I have better weekday availability, while weekends require planning ahead. Whether you need me to walk your dog, come over to ease their anxiety or simply let them out to potty, I can meet all their needs. Or if you have a high energy dog like my Aussie, I can get some of that energy out by playing with them while you are at work.
“Jenna watched our two giant dogs for a quick trip. She sent photo and video updates, letting us know how they were doing. It went great and I’ll definitely be rebooking next time!”

“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!”

“Bayley took great care of our big boy goldendoodle! She provided frequent updates while we were away and was extremely responsive. We will definitely be using her again in the future.”

“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.”

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.
“Willow was great with our greyhounds. We booked Willow to watch our pets for the day while we were out for an extended period of time. He was flexible with arrival /departure times, attentive to instructions and his calm demeanor was exactly what our two needed. We will be calling on Willow in the future to watch them again when the need arises.”

“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 ❤️”


About: I’ve loved animals my entire life and grew up at home with dogs and a cat, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. In high school I volunteered at a local animal shelter where I spent time socializing with both dogs and cats, helping them feel comfortable, playing with them, and giving them attention. I’m patient, attentive, and respectful of each pet’s unique personality and routine. I’m happy to help with feeding, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, and keeping pets company while their owners are away. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine, and I enjoy making time to give pets the attention and care they deserve. I’m fully available on Tuesdays and have morning and evening availability on most weekdays. On Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays I’m generally available before 10 AM and after 4:30 PM. I’m typically unavailable on Saturdays, and on Sundays I’m available in the morning and later evening. I always do my best to be flexible when possible and communicate clearly with pet owners to make sure their pets receive consistent and reliable care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I follow the owner’s instructions closely for feeding, walks, playtime, and any specific care needs so pets can feel secure while their owner is away. I also make sure they get plenty of attention and companionship. I’m attentive to each pet’s personality and comfort level. Some pets love lots of play and activity, while others prefer quiet companionship, and I’m happy to adjust to what makes them feel most relaxed. I always aim to keep pets safe, happy, and well cared for, and I treat each home with respect and cleanliness. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so owners can feel reassured while they’re away.
“Maya stayed the weekend with my two dogs and two cats. My creatures are a little high maintenance, but Maya handled it all well! Everyone was happy when we got home, and the house was exactly how we left it. She shared great pictures and updates. She came to visit the crew a week prior to get to know them. Would definitely recommend her and will work with her again!”


“Catherine was great with our pups! She saved us in a pinch and booked us last minute so we could make our concert! She was very tentative when we gave her instructions and had no issues bonding right to our 3 babies. If we are ever in Louisville again and need our pups watched, she will be our first call! We also got video and picture updates the entire time we were gone! Top tier service!”

“Sandra exceeded our expectations by a mile! We have two 6 month old Golden Retriever puppies who are a lot of work and Sandra handled their care with ease! We received morning and evening updates with plenty of pictures to relieve our anxiety from leaving them. One of our puppies needed two daily medications and Sandra was very prompt with their med schedule. She provided daily walks and was always there to let them outside to run around and play and give them plenty of love. When we returned from our trip we had daily notes on what the boys were up to, any new behaviors or just new funny quirks they developed. We also were able to see the spreadsheets she brought verifying the walks and meals they were given. Our house was left very clean and tidy and so were the puppies! It’s not even a question, we will most definitely be using Sandra in the future!!”

About: Hi there! My name is Hannah, and I’m 29 years old. I’ve always been an animal lover, but dogs hold a special place in my heart. I’d love to spend some quality time with your furry friends sometime this weekend, whether it’s in the mornings or the evenings. Unfortunately, I had to give up my Siberian husky when my family had to move. It’s been a tough time, and I miss the companionship of dogs dearly. I genuinely hope to find a way to make the dogs and their owners happy. I’ve also had experience watching dogs for people, and I’m quite comfortable with cats as well. My family has an outdoor cat that loves to hunt and be around people. I’ve done dog and cat sitting multiple times in my life, and I’m confident that I can provide the care and attention that these animals need. However, I need to be mindful of my living situation. I live in a house with roommates, and we’d prefer that I don’t bring an animal into the house. I understand that this might be a concern, but I assure you that I’m committed to finding a solution that works for everyone involved. I’m currently available to walk and hang out with your dog as long as you’d like. I don’t have a job but will still be looking for one. I can’t have a pet at home, but if a guest has a fence, I can let the dog out when I’m at the house.
“Great job, won cats over quickly, even our scaredy cat. Stuck to the schedule given. Did overnights for us, I never doubted his integrity with our house or personal items, very trustworthy.”

“Mary was great with both of our dogs over the weekend. She sent a ton of photo updates and seemed to enjoy spending time with them and playing with them. They’re both older and one needs medicine twice daily, which she was able to administer.”

About: I’ve been a pet owner the past 4 years. I’ve always had a love for animals and have been trusted to stick to a dogs schedule as far as feeding, walking, playing, etc. for many different breeds. I’ve been living in Cincinnati the past year and know lots of great parks. I work from home Monday- Friday 9-5. I also have full weekend availability so I will have plenty of time to care for your dog while I’m home I live in an apartment complex with a fenced in back yard and also a small dog park. Outside accessibility is no problem or if your dog prefers more time inside that is fine as well. Crates are welcome and pets are allowed on couch.

“Christina is terrific! She spent the day with our 2 pups to get to know them before an upcoming week long house sitting stay. We will rest easy knowing our pups and house are in good hands.”
