“Listen, look no further on Rover! Sharon is it. My dog injured himself and needed a place for several days that was attentive to his needs because he couldn't run or jump and I didn't want him crated all day while I was at work. Sharon sent me videos, photos, progess updates, and my Bosey would get so excited when we pulled up to her house. Her home is so serene and calm. She has plenty of toys. He has recovered quicker than I anticipated. I soooo appreciate Sharon and the care and compassion that she had for my Bosey. I will be using her and anyone reading this review should too.”



“My puppy Leroy had a blast with Racheal! She was very flexible with times and was great with communicating with us! This was his first time being out of the house and he loved it!”


“Aspen was really fantastic with my 2 dogs during their week long daycare stays. She even sat patiently with my old dog to ensure all of the lunch was eaten. I also enjoyed the daily pictures she sent!”


“Breanna is great! We left our pup for daycare, she played, relaxed, and went on a walk. Breanna was very responsive and provided great updates. We would absolutely leave our pup with her again.”


“William babysat our dog while we were in Louisville visiting. The second day our pup couldn’t wait to get out of the truck and into William’s house with his new friends. Our only disappointment is we don’t live here and can’t have William dog sit our pup more often. Highly recommend!”



“Marina is an excellent dog sitter. She was accommodating to my schedule, and conveniently waited for me outside of her complex when I told her I was almost arriving. I am always on the run so this was enormously helpful. I will definitely come back to Marina when the need arises.”


About: My house is practically a zoo! I have had animals in my life for as long as I can remember. I currently am a pet parent to my dog Ollie and cat Billie. I am the person my friends go to whenever they need a pet sitter! I am currently a teacher on summer break! So I have plenty of time to play and love on your pets. Guaranteed outside time at least every four hours. I own my own house with a large backyard! My dog loves to play with others and they can become best friends while playing outside.

“Max is awesome. Kept me informed daily of Etta’s day. He clearly loves dogs!! He is gentle and kind to my baby. She liked him right away. He even wrote a poem about her!! Just loved everything about this experience 💕”


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.

“We sent a last minute request when our plans fell through and Iryna was wonderful! Honey had a great time and Iryna sent lots of pictures. We would absolutely book again and recommend her to others.”


About: I have been an animal lover and owner for over 30 years. My 14 year old Lab is truly my best friend. He is used to other animals and very laid back. I provide lots of patience, affection and exercise for all animals. We go out 3-4 times per day for walks and potty breaks. Live right by Cherokee Park, which is a great venue for pups. I just returned home from living/working in California for a year+. Therefore my reviews are from 2023 and earlier. Please let me know about anything your pet needs to feel safe and happy. The more information the better. I can handle separation anxiety and other behavioral issues but prefer to know ahead of time. Please make sure your pet is treated for fleas/ticks. If your baby has a history of indoor urination, please provide diapers/belly bands. Happy to accommodate all ages and stages. I truly enjoy the company of animals and also like to walk often. Being in the park and exercising helps lift my spirits. My dog has improved my life in many ways and he makes me a better human. My condo is very pet friendly and permitted by the HOA. Pets are given a cool, calm and comfy environment. Plenty of memory foam beds and free access to filtered water. (Treats also, if owners request/permit). I am almost obsessively neat and always treat my customers’ homes with respect. My goal is to be as unobtrusive as possible. Scrupulous about keeping your home secure while you are away. I ask that you leave clear and detailed instructions to maintain a safe & secure home. Also, for long term services, I do not mind bringing in mail, putting trash/recycle bins out.

“Kimba had a great time with Kaitlyn. She took great care of Kimba and sent pictures throughout the day. Kaitlyn is very responsive and makes me feel at ease. Kimba has a lot of separation anxiety and it was clear from the photos and when we picked her up that she’d had a great day. I know Kimba was in good hands with Kaitlyn. I’d use her again next time we are in town.”



“Christina was incredibly accommodating, and took excellent care of Lillian, who was a little stressed over being someplace new for the first time. Wish I lived in the area so I could book her again; Christina was excellent and communicates well (and sent photos during the stay, which was a bonus!)”


“Myrna is amazing! Derby was relaxed and accepting of her from the moment they met. She sent pics and assured us that he was doing great! (Derby has some serious separation issues)”


About: If you are looking for someone to love your dog like their own and treat like a prince/princess, than I am exactly what you are looking for. I have always had a love for animals, especially dogs. I grew up with 3 dogs in my house and have been able to care for them for many years. My family and friends call me the animal whisperer because animals seem to connect with me, even those who usually don’t like strangers. I love walking dogs and going to dog parks. I live in a two story two house with lots of room and a front gated yard. I can be a morning bird or night owl. I look forward to meeting your fury member of the family. I am a full time student and stepped away from my corporate management position. I have a open schedule due to online schooling. I have dependable transportation as well. I am able to customize my services to the requests of my clients. I will always give 100% effort to make their pets feel loved and safe. Also relieving some stress for their owner, knowing they are in good hands while they are away.

“Cecile was exceptional, kind and so patient with my puppy! She gave updates the entire day, ensured my puppy felt safe and kept him busy. He came home very happy and very tired. Win win for both of us! I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring dog sitter.”

Makenzie K.
“Makenzie looked after my puppy for me when I had a last minute family emergency that required me to be out of town for a couple days. It was such a weight off my mind knowing I didn’t have to stress about him, and that I could divert all my energies into my loved ones during a time of crisis. When I finally came home I was greeted with smiles and tail wags. Makenzie said he was such a good boy the entire time and everything was super smooth sailing. I absolutely plan on using her again. She was very polite and professional to interact with. And Benedict my puppy cried the first night I had him back because he missed her.”

Grace was great our dog! We have a reactive/frustrated greeter blue heeler who can be a little shy around new people and had him playing and hanging out with her and her dogs with no trouble. We’re happy to have someone local who’s this good with him and will definitely be requesting more bookings.

We can't say enough wonderful things about our experience with Christina! We reached out last minute hoping to find someone to watch our dog for about 5 hours while we attended the wedding out of town and Christina truly went above and beyond. From the moment we dropped Bruno off, we fell completely at ease. Christina was incredibly welcoming and kind. Throughout the afternoon they sent us several adorable photo updates, which we absolutely loved and appreciated! It was clear that Bruno was happy, comfortable, and having a great time. We are so grateful for the care, love, and attention Bruno received. We would wholeheartedly recommend Christina to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and wonderful to care for their furry family member.

We are from out of town and were visiting Louisville with our dog. We needed a sitter for the days where we couldn't bring Beau with us. From the beginning, Kaitlin was quick to respond and accommodating, even agreeing to a quick meet and greet before day care. Kaitlin was calm and we felt like we could trust her with Beau. Her dog, Maggie was very sweet and we felt comfortable leaving Beau with essentially a complete stranger! Thank you, Kaitlin! We would definitely recommend her.
