“Jean was wonderful! She took great care of our dog, and she sent us regular updates on how he was doing. She gave him lots of attention, and she has a great love for animals. We will strongly consider her for the next time we need someone to take care of our dog overnight.”

She really treated my boys like they were here own. She would cuddle and give them all the love! If you live in the Paducah area or visiting, she is definitely the rover to pick!

About: Over 17 plus years of dedicated, successful experience in loving, caring for, and nurturing animals, ensuring their safety, health, happiness, trust, and overall well-being daily. Caring for animals has always been part of my daily life—I’ve had pets all my life, continue to lovingly care for my own, and bring that same devotion to every animal I meet. My home is a warm, pet-friendly environment where animals are treated like family; even my 5 and 9-year-old sons have been raised to treat pets with respect, kindness, and gentle care.

“Did a fantastic job and did well helping solve some problems that popped while I was gone! Fantastic communication and overall very good at making my cats feel comfortable and safe. This was my first time leaving my cats ever and I am so glad I chose Chris to take care of my babies.”

Jessica B.

“Kayla provided great, loving care for my pet cat and did an excellent job communicating and providing me with updates.”

Matt H.

About: I have always had pets growing up, and have taken care of countless pets of all species, breeds, ages, and sizes for friends/family since high school. I love the challenge of winning over an animal that is hesitant around new people. The more stubborn they are to warm up to new people, the harder I try to win them over. But it is always at their pace and on their terms so that they are completely comfortable with me. Your pets will be loved and spoiled like they are my own. I am available during the nights for in-home pet sitting, with the option to pop in during the day to let your pet out and for feedings. When I care for pets in their own home I make sure that the pet owners show me where everything is located within the home for the animals, and leave emergency numbers such as vets in an accessible place in the case of emergency. I will take as much time with your pets as they need in order to be comfortable and well provided for.

“Elmira did an excellent job caring for my kitten. She was respectful of my space, took great pics of him, played with him even at his feistiest, and was willing to trouble shoot issues with my auto litterbox. Would definitely recommend her to sit your babies!”

Stacey E.

About: I've brought home every stray cat I could find for the last 40 years. We have cat towers and teepees and tons of cat nip for your little kitty!

About: I have taken care of many kinds of dogs and cats of my friends and families I try to make genuine connections with animals in hopes that they will remember me This is the only kind of job I have at the moment so i will be extreme available to take care of your pets at any time I am an active individual so i like long walks, If i’m watching pets I like to actually engage with the animal if they are playful and if they aren’t I will also respect that

“So fantastic, very communicative!”

Matthew R.

“Ashlee was amazing! She took great care of our elderly lizard, and she even sent us pictures of him while we were gone!! 10/10!!”

Hannah R.

About: I love pets of all kinds—especially dogs and cats—and I take pride in providing attentive, reliable care while you’re away. Your pet’s comfort, routine, and safety are always my top priorities. I work independently, which allows me to be flexible and responsive with scheduling. I’m dependable, punctual, and happy to accommodate your pet’s routine whenever possible. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats. The basics are always priority one: making sure your pet is fed, comfortable, and taken out as needed. From there, we play and engage at their pace. My goal is to keep your pet happy and relaxed—so you don’t have to worry while you’re away.

About: I have my own kitties that are very spoiled! So I would love to get the chance to spoil your kitties! I am extremely understanding of temperamental kitties or ones that simply would rather not be bothered.

About: I was born and raised around pets which include your typical farm animals as well! I have always had dogs, cats, birds and even fishes! I hold my animals dear to my heart! I will take care of your animals like they are my own! I have a soft spot for Dogs and Cats. I don’t mind walking dogs but it’s more than likely your dog will be walking me! I love playing with animals, it makes me happy and the animal as well! If you need to ask me questions, feel free! And I’m looking forward to meeting your animal(s)! I work as a Pharmacy Technician, but I have free time to take care of your animals! Let me know what you are looking for and I can let you know if I’m available! Maggie Mae is my pride and joy. She’s a very lazy English bulldog that needs more care than the average dog. I will take care of your fur babies like their my own!

“Mallory was so great! We had a few hiccups with food and forgot to provide some key information, but she was so patient with us and willing to roll with the punches.”

About: I will tell you a bit about me and I need to know about your dog as well. Before contacting me about caring for your dog, make sure their profile(s) is completed here on Rover. Upload a picture and submit as much info as you can provide. It helps me determine if your dog is a good fit for what I can provide. About me: Raised in the country surrounded by both family pets and farm animals, caring for critters is second nature to me. I am a doting grandma who lives too far away from my kids to see my grandchildren so I channel that attention toward my Australian Shepherd, Gumbo, and my new puppy, Boo, the Yorki-Poo. After I lost my husband and best friend I found the best way to cope is to help others and keep busy. If I can help you out with your dog or cat while you're away, let me know. I can use the extra income but also I need to feel useful. I keep my fee low. Tips are appreciated. I board at my home in the country near Dukedom, TN. Think of boarding here as bringing your dog to Grandma's house. There will be some spoiling and if pet parents permit, homemade dog cookies! Currently I am home all the time. Your dog will be with me and my dog while here. Gumbo (30 pound neutered male) likes to play fetch or frisbee and we do this daily. I feed my dog early morning (6-7) and early evening (6-7). I give a lot of outside time when weather allows. I give my dog a lot of attention and your dog(s) will get the same. We are a pack and your dog will be part of that pack when he/she stays with us. I live on 6 acres near Dukedom, TN. My large backyard has a chain link fence. If your dog likes to play ball or frisbee this is a great yard to do it in. In addition to the backyard, I have a large field that I keep a path mowed around just for walks but to go there your dog(s) must have excellent recall or be leashed trained very well. I don't want to be pulled around or have to struggle to hold them. Dogs really like going to the field. "No" is the word I use to stop misbehavior. If there is a different word you use, let me know. It is good to know what words/phrases your dog recognizes. It'd be great if you write those down and give it to me. I have carpet throughout my living quarters so PLEASE only housebroken dogs. I give numerous long outdoor time between 5 AM to 9 PM. Potty breaks are every couple of hours. Your pet must be vaccinated! Bordatella vacs are recommended every six-to-twelve months. if your dog frequents places with other dogs, get 6 month vaccine. My dogs are vaccinated. In the warmer months, it is very important that dogs have a flea and tick preventative or have some defense against these nasty bugs because both are out here. I keep grass mowed but they still get on the dogs so make sure they have a preventative. My dogs wear clothing treated with Sawyer flea/tick spray and I have had great success with that method along with a monthly prescribed medicine. Bring your pet's food/bowls/treats along with feeding instructions. Filling out pet profile in depth on Rover helps tremendously! It has an area for vet info and anything I would need to know about your dog can be on their profile! Gumbo has dog toys that he shares but if your dog has a fave, bring it. If your dog must sleep in a bed or crate, bring it. Sometimes a sweater or anything with your scent on it comforts a dog that misses his/her owner. You're welcome to bring that. If he/she has a brush that you want me to use, bring it. I can brush dogs but have no proper facility to bathe. In the summer, I have a small dog pool to cool off in and plenty of shade in the backyard. NO cell service out here so I do not carry my phone with me. I check my messages several times thru the day but I'm not like most that have their phone on them. It does me no good. Many rural people pay for cell service despite not getting it at their homes. I have a landline that works providing my internet service works. If there is anything else you need to know, do not hesitate to ask. I have my profile set to only take in three dogs at a time. I have two so I think five is enough. I am very attentive so rest assured I am keeping a good eye on them.

“Very professional and kind Would use his service at anytime.”

About: Experienced in 25 years with all domesticated animals from bottle feeding to senior care. I have raised and rehabilitated lots of animals. I have a lot of experience at rehabilitating wildlife as well. I stay in contact with local shelters, vets, and sanctuaries. I currently work from home and I make my own schedule so that allows me to know in advance what days I can book your furry (or non furry) pal! Being home also allows me to spend much needed time with your pet, especially if separation anxiety is an issue. I will take multiple pets from the same owner. I want your pal(s) to have the best experience at our home. I stay at home the majority of the time. One of my three dogs are crate trained. I have experience with crate training if your dog is used to a crate upon leaving or at night. I have a separate 3rd bathroom that I have always used for my own dogs in case they need to be put up a while upon leaving briefly. If your little guy or gal is shy, no worries I have all the patience needed for that. If he/she wants to stay away from the others, I have a separate large room (with TV for noise) and extra bathroom. My dogs love watching dog TV, and maybe yours will too. If your pal follows a strict schedule, it would not be a problem to accommodate!

“Such a wonderful person. Took great care of my Golden Retriever Tucker. Sent photos of his day and he loved all the attention from her and her daughter.”

Beth S.

“Christopher connects with Scout very well and Scout is excited every time he sees him. Their walks are effective and Scout gets the exercise he needs. I'll use Christopher every time I'm in the area”

About: I’ve always had/been around dogs. With that comes responsibility and loving care. I have experience with all sizes and willing to accommodate any special needs. I’m currently a college student at Murray State, almost all my classes are online besides on Tuesday. My schedule is flexible, we can work out a time/date together. I do go to church on Sunday, so I would need that morning/afternoon off. I am a big cuddle bug. I pay attention to the small details. I enforce rules while trying to add some tricks. I keep the environment light and I try to accommodate in anyway for my clients and their babies(dogs).

About: Ive taken care of pets since I was 6, growing up we had multiple different sized breeds (both cats and dogs)! I currently have a 4 yr old blue Heeler named Rhea, along with a 2 yr boxer mix named Gohan, and three cats Leo, socks, and Garfield! I prioritize exercise and enrichment, as a worn out, well exercised pet is a happy one! Whether it be walks, playtime, letting outside to potty,ect, I tailor to their each individual need! I also love incorporating puzzle toys, lick mats,ect to help pets decompress after play/walks.During/after our walks I love to take plenty of photos/videos for pet parents! I currently have times everyday that I can do dog walks/check ins! Luckily my schedule is usually a quite flexible one, so just let me know what you need and I know I can fit you in! I can do whatever needed! From potty breaks, walks, feeding, even just some attention so your fur babies don't get lonely:) Puzzle treats and lick mats are a great way to decompress after play and walks, so I do enjoy implementing those into the schedule!

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and genuinely love caring for them like family. I have experience with dogs of different breeds, sizes, personalities, and ages, including high-energy dogs, anxious pets, and senior dogs who need extra patience and care. As someone with a CNA background and currently in nursing school, I’m very comfortable with routines, medications, attention to detail, and providing dependable care. Whether your pet needs walks, feeding, playtime, cuddles, medication, or just someone patient and trustworthy while you’re away, I’ll treat them like my own. My schedule is flexible, and I’m able to provide dependable care throughout the week and weekends depending on your needs. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I do my best to stick to their normal routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, medications, and playtime. I’m reliable, responsive, and happy to communicate updates and pictures while you’re away so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is in good hands. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priority. I understand that every animal has a different personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take time to learn what makes them feel safe and comfortable. I’m attentive to instructions, comfortable with medications if needed, and patient with shy, anxious, senior, or high-energy pets. Whether caring for your pet in your home or during walks and drop-ins, I’ll treat them with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own animals.

About: I have a dog on my own. I love seeing her enjoying little things like walking, sniffing and treats. It makes my day. I can teach simple commands and wash puppy occasionally. I am doing freelancing right now, I have a time to take care of your puppy. Once we make a schedule I will commit to it. I have 3 dogs in the house I am living so I can't take a dog for a stay. But I can visit your place and take care of your puppy.
