“She sent me lots of pictures and was very sweet and patient with my cat who was shy about a new person. She was very understanding and communicative. Thank you for your help!!”


“Valerie was amazing! She cared for my Lucy and Remy as if they were her own and even went the extra mile to try to help with some pool issues that arose at my house while I was away. Her care and dedication was so appreciated and I will be sure to book again with her when needed! I highly recommend Valerie if your pet needs love and attention as if you weren’t away!”

“Dorothy did a phenomenal job taking care of our fur princess. Our dog was feeling nervous with us being gone, and Dorothy made her feel comfortable. She definitely has a way with animals!”


“Nina is so great! I was nervous using Rover but am so glad I did and found her. She was responsive, spent so much quality time with my dogs and kept me in the loop on how things were going. My dogs are gonna be so excited to continue to see her!”

About: I have taken care of my fair share of animals over the past decade: cats, dogs, birds, fish, reptiles, you name it! I myself have 3 cats and understand their body language, needs, and quirks. I also have an iron stomach and nothing pet-wise can phase me. I also have a firm belief in keeping pet owners up to date with photos and texts after every visit. I work a very consistent 9:30-6:30 job with a guaranteed 1 hour break every day. This means I can make consistent visits between 8-9am, 12-1p, and 6:30-10pm each day. Weekends are *usually* free for at least 2 checks a day. My schedule rarely changes and that lets me plan for consistency! With 3 cats, I have long-since memorized what plants and foods are toxic as well as feline CPR and how to recognize signs of distress and pain in cats. I myself aim for daily litter cleanings, consistent feedings, and plenty of active play and love for my cats and any others I'm entrusted with. I have nursed several kittens back to health and have fostered as well. As far as dogs grow- they're the animals I grew up with 4 chihuhuas, a Border Collie, and a variety of loveable mutts through my childhood. I also got my start as a pet sitter walking dogs and doing overnight stays at homes to keep anxious pups company.
“Mairen was great. It was nice to know everything was taken care of while I was gone. All three of my furbabies (two dogs and one cat) were taken care of in a loving but professional manner. Plus, she went the extra step of double checking when I would be home and feeding/walking them one last time to make sure they were comfortable so I didn’t have to frantically rush home from the airport. Further, she made sure it looked like she was never here upon her departure. I don’t just recommend, I highly recommend and will be coming back to Mairen if I need someone in the future. Thank you, Mairen.”
About: I have owned and cared for dogs since I was a kid, and now at 48 and retired, you could definitely do worse for someone to take care of your pup. I am available for boarding, house sitting (dependent upon the situation), doggy daycare and/or walks. As a retiree, I have all of the time needed to properly care for your pet. I am currently a dog owner, so your pup will have company. I have a large, fenced in yard, with plenty of shade. I primarily keep my dog in the home, so your pup will have as much time in or outside as he/she prefers.

“Jasmine did a great job with our dogs and was very communicative with pictures and updates! She also took great care of the home! It was just as we left it. Even when my golden retriever pulled out some of my personal belongings she respectfully put them back. I would consider Jasmine very responsible and she has great character; it was also extremely nice to meet her because she was exceptionally pleasant and kind.Thanks again, Jasmine”

“Jamie is a breath of fresh air! She is kind and professional. We were able to enjoy ourselves without worrying what was going on at home. We had a bad experience with another Sitter, which made Jamie all the much more appreciated. We look forward to hiring her many more times.”

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover and have five dogs of my own, so caring for dogs is a big part of my everyday life. I’ve also cared for dogs for private families and understand that every pup has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m patient, responsible, and attentive, and I love giving dogs plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection. I’ll treat your dog like one of my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m in college from 8:00 AM to about 12:30 PM, so I’m available before and after classes for pet care. I have a flexible schedule and can provide plenty of time for walks, feeding, playtime, and attention. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and needs. I always make sure pets are in a safe, clean, and comfortable environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I’m respectful of my clients’ homes and treat every pet with patience, care, and attention. I want both you and your pet to feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.

About: I am a Biological Science major currently looking for work! I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was child including bigger and smaller breeds of dogs, and a variety in ages/temperament of cats. I also have a good amount of knowledge in caring for fish, reptiles, rodents, and birds. (Not an expert, just well read!) I have also been employed previously as a Senior Caregiver under Senior Helpers Lexington, so I know caring for your fur baby will be a walk in the park (pun intended)! So weekly, I do volunteer at my local high school marching band as a percussion tech, (Go Mustangs!), so afternoons, other than Wednesday, are a no go. I am willing to do overnights (except Friday and Saturday nights) starting at 8:30 pm! Anytime during the weekday between the times of 10 am-3:30 pm are available to me! If there’s an emergency, as long as communicated and I am able, I can be more flexible with these exceptions in my schedule. My own home is not available as of right now, but at a clients home, whatever is asked of me will be completed to highest level of care and consideration. Anything I am unsure about will be communicated as promptly as possible. My main goal for caring for your loved one is that they are safe, happy, and nourishingly enriched ie taking for long walks, eating on their schedule, and giving medication if needed.
“Heather was so communicative and I felt like she was fully capable when I met her before she pet sat for us- she took every bit of information for our crazy mini hobby farm and did amazing! Would love to hire her back anytime we have a trip!”

“Ashley was great! I’m so thankful she was available on a relatively short notice and for the first time! Remy and Lucy looked like they had a great time from the photos and commentary Ashley provided! I’d surely book Ashley again to pet sit and recommend her to others!”

“Thank you Ashley for always taking good care of my sweet boy and taking care of my home! I appreciate the care and attention you provide and the peace of mind I have when I’m away!”

The median cost per night for house sitting in Uptown is $40
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Uptown
This was my first time using Rover and I could not have picked a better sitter than Karly! She was great with my two pets, and sent daily check ins with some really cute photos. We also just moved into this home very recently, so while it was a bit chaotic, Karly didnt mind a bit and was a wonderful guest. Id recommend her to anyone looking for a great sitter!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about my experience! She was absolutely phenomenal with all of my pets and treated them like they were her own. She showered them with love, attention, and treats, and went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and comfortable. She even walked my dog in the rain while holding an umbrella over her! If that isn’t exceptional care, I don’t know what is! Communication was fantastic throughout the entire stay. I received frequent updates and tons of pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing my pets were in such loving hands. I genuinely think my animals might like her more than they like me now! I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. It’s so clear how much she genuinely cares about animals, and I would trust her with mine again in a heartbeat. I highly, highly recommend her!

We had such a great experience with Kasara! She stayed at our home for four nights and cared for our three small dogs while we were away. She was communicative and dependable, sent regular updates and lots of photos that helped me worry less. What I appreciated most was how patient and capable she was with their different personalities. I was worried my dogs would have a hard time adjusting to me being gone, but Kasara handled it perfectly. It was obvious she genuinely cares and knows how to work with different pet personalities. As a bonus, she left our home neat and well cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter!
