Highly-rated overnight sitters - Metropolis

“Jean was amazing! I have a high-energy Goldendoodle, and she was great with her. She kept me updated with photos where my pup was either playing with other dogs or happily doing her own thing. I felt totally at ease the whole time knowing she was in such good hands. Great communication, super thoughtful care!”

“Hi. Amanda and her family took the best care of our Shanay! Shanay went on outside a lot and played with the family’s dogs. Amanda was very attentive and kept me up dated. It was truly a pleasure to board our dog with Amanda, she provided nurture and love. Thanks a million!!!!”

“Olivia was absolutely awesome. She checked in multiple times a day with photos and made sure my dogs were well taken care and had an active routine everyday. She was great with communication. As an added bonus she was really nice to my kids even gave them so beach toys when she found out they had never been to the ocean. I cannot recommend her more. I had a bad experience with a kennel facility and I am so happy I went with Rover and Olivia. My dogs had a blast running around her big yard and wrestle and play her dogs.”

“Jessie was great with our dog and I could tell he enjoyed being with her. She was also so attentive in reporting back to us how he was doing. I would definitely recommend her as an excellent pet-sitter.”

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 6 and 9-year-old sons have been raised to treat pets with respect, kindness, and gentle care.
“Ashlee and her family are fantastic! Wonderful people that we are so glad we now know! Such a wholesome and the best people who felt like friends. They took such great care of our pitsky and basset beagle hound. Mochi and Babbs just loved everyone! We loved the daily updates and pictures. They have a beautiful home and plenty of walking area. I got notifications on our Fi collar app that Mochi matched her step goal everyday with them, which we don't always hit at our house. Lol We are definitely going to have Ashlee and her family care for our furbabies again.”

“took care of dollee daily and uploaded photos every day. he notified me of any issues going on while still there. she loved him. the pictures show that he’s a true animal lover.”

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.

“Mallory did a great job with my kitten! Her communication was fantastic throughout the whole week and she answered any questions in a timely manner. My cat seemed to have lots of fun with her during the week.”

“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!”

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Metropolis

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).

“Christopher did a great job with Scout. He needed the walk after a full day of riding in the car the day before and sitting inside most of today. He came back smiling and had gotten a good bit of exercise. I'd use him again if we were in the Paducah area.”

“Allyson has been fantastic. She is reliable and it is obvious she really cares about my dog’s welfare. She has gone above and beyond to make sure Jethro gets the best care. I highly recommend her.”

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.

I have a large yard that I can take your dog out to play in! There is also a park with a bunch of trails nearby!
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and I absolutely love my babies. I really love getting to spend time with animals, and even getting to take care of them!
