About: I am a doctoral candidate in Biology at UofL, so you know I'm good at organization and scheduling! I think my time as a graduate student has sharpened my reasoning and communication skills as well. It's also increased my animal handling experience (mice)! I've had pets my whole life, mostly cats and dogs. My most recent pet is an elderly shi tzu with a surprising amount of energy! Apollo is a very skiddish cat, but we've definitely earned each others' trust. I can drop by to check on your pet, take them out for a walk (if weekday, must be before 10am or after 5pm, can be flexible), check on them periodically to feed them, or house sit (weekends only). I am a grad student, so I'm usually busy during weekdays 10am-5pm. Most of my work now is away from the bench, so I can be a little flexible about those hours Weekends are generally open! I love in an apartment that doesn't allow animals so I can't keep any here. I can however watch your furry friend at your house or take them on walks around the neighborhood!
“Winnie looked like she was loving her walk! Oliver responded really quickly to requests, was quite communicative and I loved the photos! (I hav a hard time getting good ones of her.) Thanks, Oliver!”
“Rebecca has been amazing with our dog! She is always on time, gives us updates on the walks, and helps adjust to anything we might need for that particular day regarding the dog's needs. I would trust her with my dog any time!”

“Amanda was a God send! Even when my wrong address was in the system and she went to that house first, she went back to our ACTUAL house to take care of our girls. We were so thankful!”

“Grace works patiently to gain the dog’s trust. Her questions demonstrate true care and concern. She ensures she is walking at the dog’s pace. Grace is professional, kind and considerate. I feel honored to have met her and trust her completely with my dog.”

“Lauran was fantastic while I was visiting Louisville for the Kentucky Oaks and Derby weekend. Her communication was top notch, always quick to respond and kept me updated throughout the two days. I especially appreciated her flexibility when I needed to add an extra walk at the last minute, she was incredibly accommodating and handled it without any issues. It’s a huge relief to find someone so reliable and easy to work with when you're visiting another city for an event. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a professional and adaptable walker!”

About: Hi there! My name is Keri, and I'm excited to offer my services as a pet sitter through Rover. As someone with a passion for animal care, I'm thrilled to be able to use my skills and experience to help keep your furry friends happy and healthy while you're away. As a veterinary technician with experience working in spay and neuter clinics, I've gained a wealth of knowledge about animal health and behavior. I've worked with cats of every temperament and need level, I'm confident in my ability to care for your pets, no matter what their needs may be. I understand that medical care can be a source of stress for both pets and their owners, so I'll do everything I can to make the process as smooth and easy as possible. At home, I have four cats of my own who are my pride and joy. They're each unique and have their own personalities, so I know just how important it is to treat each animal as an individual. Whether your pet is shy and reserved or outgoing and energetic, I'll work to create a comfortable and safe environment that meets their needs. In my current role at the Kentucky Humane Society, I work to help the community with a variety of issues ranging from financial need for vet care or minor behavioral issues from their pets! Overall, I'm committed to providing the best possible care for your pets while you're away. I'll treat them as if they were my own and make sure they feel loved and cared for at all times. Thank you for considering me for your pet sitting needs, and I look forward to meeting you and your furry friends soon! My schedule is very flexible so I’m available nearly any day or time that is needed! I can make accommodations for any timed feedings/medications as well. For house sitting, I am unable to stay overnight but I am available for as long as you need during the daytime! My cats are indoor only, but because of this I emphasize that they get exercise through playtime everyday. We have special feeding mats to ensure they don’t eat too quickly or feel under stimulated, as well as low entry litter boxes throughout the apartment. Two of my cats are very anxious due to experience prior to adoption, so we try our very best to provide them with many hiding places and a calm environment. I would be more than willing to ensure the same level of care is provided for any of your animals, if not above and beyond this. I know the anxiety of leaving pets with someone, and would hope you could feel entirely secure in the experience with me!
About: Hello! I’m a tenured physics Professor and a lifelong animal lover. I currently care for three cats of my own and have many years of experience caring for both cats and dogs. I have experience caring for senior pets and understand the importance of routines, medication schedules, and paying close attention to changes in behavior and health. I am patient, reliable, detail-oriented, and committed to making pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. As a professor, I bring professionalism, responsibility, and strong communication to every pet-sitting job. My schedule is especially flexible during evenings, weekends, holidays, and university breaks. Whether you need house sitting, drop-in visits, dog walking, feeding, litter box cleaning, or care for senior pets, I will treat your pets and home with the same care and respect I give my own.
About: I was fortunate enough to be raised in a home with a variety of animals! I have had dogs my entire life, and cats for the last decade, with bunnies, frogs, hamsters, hermit crabs, and more along the way! Anyone who knows me, knows how important my pets are to me. They are more than pets, they are my family! I have had big, medium, and small dog breeds, and worked with cats with all different personality types and backgrounds. I understand how important it is to have peace of mind with the person responsible for your family members when you're away, and with me you will never doubt that your fur babies are being spoiled! Working with me, you'll find that I can accommodate any request or 'weird pet quirk' that you may throw my way. I find that animals respond well to my calm and genuine nature, and it provides enjoyment for me as well! I just recently got engaged and am hoping to help fund my wedding and future home, please reach out if you have any questions or special requests! I am also known to send probably too many pictures while you're gone, for that extra reassurance that all is well! I look forward to becoming a part of your village, please don't hesitate to reach out for all pet and house care needs! I work from home as a mental health professional and create my own schedule, so pet care can fit very easily into my routine. I will be as flexible as possible with the families I work with, and communication will never be a concern! At this time, in order to protect my own fur babies and yours, I will not be bringing client's pets' into my own home. I find that pets are more comfortable in their own environment most of the time, and I would rather keep their comfort a priority. I follow directions provided by the families on how to best keep their pet comfortable with a new person entering their space. Reading their behavior and body language is so important!
“Kat is amazing! She is prompt, responsible, communicates well, and is great with my dog. She consistently brings him back well exercised and happy! Highly recommend! I am grateful to have found her and feel pretty lucky—and my dog feels the same!”

About: Hi, I have been around animals of all different shapes and sizes my whole life. In addition to taking care of my own cat, I volunteer at the animal shelter to provide care and fostering. I would love to meet your furry friend! I recently completed my bachelor's degree at UCLA and relocated to Louisville to begin my professional career. Although I love pets, my lifestyle does not allow me to have a pet full-time. I will give the pets I care for maximal attention and energy. I think it is most important when a dog/cat is in a new environment or in one with new people is to make them feel comfortable and safe. In order to insure this I would spend time with the dog/cat and owner before I care for them on my own
About: Have enjoyed the company and joy of cats and dogs for many years. Have taken care of puppies, kittens and elderly pets and realize the care that’s required. They’ll be treated as family. I work Monday through Friday typically with Saturdays and Sundays off. 6am - 2pm I work with DoorDash, shipt and Instacart so my time is flexible. I have 4 parakeets. I can work in four hour increments to allow for a day time bathroom break. Of course a morning and afternoon walk along with daily playtime.

Sycamore dog parents share their Rover experiences
We could not have felt more at ease with Grace taking care of our pup! She was very conscious of our pups nervousness around strangers, and took great care to get to know her and make her feel comfortable! We are so happy to have found a reliable and kind new friend for our dog!

From the very beginning, Fatima went above and beyond with my dog. I’ve worked with other sitters before, but none came close to the level of care and attention she gave. My dog wasn’t feeling well while I was away, and she handled everything with such kindness and responsibility. Even though he’s usually shy with new people, she patiently earned his trust until he was completely comfortable by her side. She kept me reassured with constant updates, photos, and thoughtful messages. Fatima is the kind of sitter every pet owner hopes to find, and I’d recommend her in a heartbeat!
