2. Rhonda W.

“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!”


3. Sara R.

“Sara did an excellent job watching my large dog and cat over the weekend! She followed all of my directions perfectly and handled my energetic pup like a champ. She sent lots of updates and pics and left my apartment in tiptop shape when she left. Couldn’t recommend her more!”

About: I have helped to take care of my family’s 5 dogs for the past 4 years. I have assisted in the birthing and raising of two litters until 10 weeks of age. Including giving bathes, feeding, and potty training of both litters. I have participated in training sessions with one of my dogs to help him overcome anxiety and fear of strangers. As well as teaching him various tricks, such as Sit, Stay, Lay, Come, and Paw. I have also distributed medicine to two of our dogs for allergies, anxiety, and for other health issues they have. I currently have a part-time job and I will be available every day after 3:00pm, leaving tons of time to care for your sweet fur-babies! I care for my pets in a number of ways wether it be lots of cuddles and play time with toys, to picking up accidents they might have, as well as lots of walks.


6. Lauren S.
“Lauren was amazing! She sent daily updates with pictures and went above and beyond doing extras like organizing my daughters cat area and making sure our fridge was free of old foods. She was sweet with our two dogs and cat. Very responsive to texts! Highly recommend!”


7. Kennedy D.
About: I have several years of experience in caring for both cats and dogs other than my own. I want to make sure any pet that has to spend time away from their person still feels loved and taken care of during those times. I would love to take care of your pets! I have work from 9am-6:30pm Mon-Friday. Anytime outside of that I am able to do drop in visits or over night stays. Weekends and nights are ideal for me! I am open to making my care for your pet totally customizable to you and your routines. Depending on your preferences I can work out a schedule that works for both of us. I have less experience with older dogs who require special medications / treatments however again would be willing to carefully follow any instruction given for those pets who need more attention.


8. Gibson C.

“Gibson was fabulous with my senior dog! She accommodated him and patiently cared for him. She stayed with him and provided companionship while we were away. When we returned, my dog was happy and obviously well cared for. I'll definitely be asking her to sit for us again!!”


9. Virginia H.

“Excellent sitter & very kind. Went above & beyond for my pup”


10. River C.
“River has taken care of my cats on several occasions. She always sends updates with pictures, detailed responses when I check in with her, and takes care of my fur babies like they are her own. She’s also super great with my pet rats and goes above and beyond regularly to ensure that my babies never miss out on being loved and cared for when I’m away. River will always be my first choice in a pet sitter!”


11. Jillian F.
About: I have had many animals, ranging from goats to dogs to chickens to horses. Have training since I was five. I have two dogs of my own. A black lab and a mini Aussie. I take them on daily walks through the park that is close to my house. If you have any questions, please ask. Thats what questions are for. If you aren't sure of something suggest it and I will tell you more about it. I dont have experience with all breeds of animals so please be patient and if your pets need special care please make a comment of it. Currently going to school part-time so I'm pretty flexible with my schedule as far as what and when I can take care of the littles. I don't offer boarding but when I am taking care of another's pet, I'll ask a series of questions to ensure any and any and all animals in the house will be taken care of properly and to your preferences


12. Neria b.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind. Family and friends have trusted me with the responsibility of taking care by walking, feed and bathe of their fur pets. I am currently working a part time job, so I am able to spend quality time with your fur babies. Most days I only work one shifts. I have a yard where your dog can enjoy fresh air. I am also able to take them to the park. I have one fur baby who can make some company. I can easily crate your dog if needed


13. Bryanna G.

“Great job!”


14. Brianna K.

“Brianna stayed with my 3 dogs while we went out of town and provided excellent care for them. I’m always hesitant when leaving them as one of my dogs can be nervous around new people but she took to Brianna like she had known her forever. Highly recommend anyone looking for a dog sitter to reach out to her.”


15. Jesse C.
About: Nadya (my wife) and I have taken care of all kinds of animals from Cats and Dogs to foal and fully grown horses and cattle. All dogs and cats are welcome inside. Either myself or my wife will be able to be home all day to take care of your pet, and we both enjoy walking them too. We are able to give them breaks at least once every 2 hours. Dogs and cats are welcome to sleep inside when it is raining or cold out. Willing to let them out in the middle of the night if need be. We have a full 0.5 acre yard for your dogs to romp around in, explore, and play. Weldon dog park ia also a short walk away. All pets are allowed inside and i can crate them if you desire. If any issues with other furry tenants then i can segregate them into their own rooms with no issues.


16. Clementine A.
“I can't recommend Clementine enough as a pet caregiver! She’s so responsible, attentive, and truly loves animals. My friend's pets always come back happy and well-cared for after staying with her. If I had a pet, I’d trust her completely to look after it while I’m away. Her caring nature and commitment to making sure pets feel loved and comfortable really set her apart!”


17. Amy T.
About: I have had 5 dogs during my lifetime. I have cared for a dog with diabetes, arthritis, incontinence, and allergies, so I am very familiar with administering medications. I love to play with dogs and let them get their energy out while I am around. I am responsible and will absolutely love your dog. I am a full time student, but I would love to care for your animals any time after 12 pm. I am open for weekends and would be more than happy to care for your furry friend. I would like to know the expectations from the client, so I can care for their dog to the best of my ability. Anything from routines, where the food is, if they’re allowed on the couch, etc.


18. Ashley O.

“Ashley was great and did a wonderful job at our house. Everything was in its place when we returned and our pups seemed to be relaxed and happy to have had the attention. We even have a dog who has some accidents due to age, and she let us know about it and cleaned everything up. She communicated with us consistently with questions or concerns, and we were never left wondering how things were going. We wouldn't hesitate to work with Ashley again and would recommend her to others.”


19. Sydney F.
About: I have had my precious dog and cat, Roxy and Rainbow, for most of my life! Growing up I learned to take good care of them and love on them. Since high school, I have helped out my neighbors by pet-sitting and house-sitting. I loved getting to visit the pets and make sure they were well cared for. Our pets deserve the best and I want to make that happen! I am a full time college student at WKU, but when I am not in class, I would love to care for your pet! I usually have free time in the mornings and evenings on weekdays, and I am typically available on weekends. Feel free to reach out and I am happy to be flexible finding a day and time that works for you! I live in a pet-friendly apartment with 3 roommates. They all love animals but will not be too involved with the pets. There are plenty of areas outside for your pet. We have a large living room space and a balcony which is usually closed. Pets are welcome on furniture and they can be in the living room or my bedroom. Currently there are no other animals in our apartment.
