“Destinee and her husband took my dog at the last second after another sitter backed out 30 minutes before I was to drop him off. Not only did they help me out in a pinch, but they were absolutely amazing and took wonderful care of my dog. I will 100% use them again in the future.”
“Worked with Angela only. She was communicative, professional, and I trust them. Everything worked out great, Theo is back home, happy, and in good health.”
“This was my first time using Rover and Sean did a great job. I have two large dogs and had concerns with leaving them at another persons house. We completed a meet and greet, walked the dogs and agreed we would complete the booking process. Sean did a great job of communicating throughout the visit and made sure both of my dogs got plenty of time outside and plenty of walks. Sean went above and beyond for my pups! Will definitely book with him in the future.”
“First time using Kelsey for our pet sitter! She was great with both of my fur babies. She was very flexible with drop off and pick up time. I also liked that she wanted to do a meet and greet before sitting them. No other sitter on Rover has requested or said anything about doing that. Kelsey also provided updates throughout Tink and Trig's stay. I highly recommend her for pet sitting needs!”
“Beth took amazing care of Monty! He got plenty of exercise and attention and I got plenty of updates while I was away. It was clear when he got home that he was far happier than when I've had to kennel him on trips. I would definitely call Beth again when I go out of town.”
About: I have experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I understand the importance of keeping pets on their normal routines and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply providing companionship, I give every pet the attention they deserve. I am dependable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. My goal is to treat every pet like they are my own and provide owners with peace of mind while they are away. I can work most of the time and have a very flexible schedule, especially during the weeks before I leave for college this fall. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care, including feeding, walks, exercise, playtime, and companionship. I am reliable, organized, and committed to making sure pets receive consistent attention, care, and affection while they are with me. Safety is always my top priority. I carefully follow all instructions provided by pet owners, including feeding schedules, medication needs, exercise requirements, and any special care requests. I maintain a clean and secure environment, monitor pets closely during walks and playtime, and make sure they always have access to fresh water and a comfortable space to relax. I focus on building trust with both pets and owners by providing dependable, attentive, and compassionate care.
“Great experience with Daniel and his family. Leia, my dog, is extremely energetic, and she got along well with Diesel and was able to get plenty of play time outside. When I picked her up, she was well exercised, which is always a relief! I hope to leave Leia with Daniel again.”
“Missy took amazing care of my lab while I was on vacation. She was incredible with communicating and sending pictures of my dog while I was away. Would highly recommend!”
“Elizabeth and Phillip took great care of Hannah, and kept us informed and up to date with messages and pictures. Would certainly engage their services again!”
About: I’ve been a dog owner most of my life and truly understand how much pets are part of the family. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities—both my own and those of friends and family. I’ve provided overnight care as well as extended daytime stays, and I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, and giving pets the attention they need to feel safe and happy. I know how important it is to have someone you trust watching your pet, so I treat every dog like my own—with patience, consistency, and lots of love. I’m reliable, communicative, and happy to follow any specific instructions to keep your dog comfortable and on their normal routine. When caring for dogs, I focus on consistency and comfort. Before the stay, I like to learn your dog’s daily schedule—feeding times, walk routines, favorite activities, and any special needs. During their stay, I stick as closely as possible to that routine so they feel secure and less stressed. I also take time to get to know each dog’s personality and energy level, whether they love to play or prefer a quieter environment. You can expect regular communication and updates so you feel confident your dog is in good hands. Safety and trust are extremely important to me when caring for your pet. My home provides a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment where dogs can feel comfortable and secure. I have a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play and potty breaks, and I always supervise dogs while they’re outside. I’m careful about doors, gates, and interactions to ensure your pet stays safe at all times. I’m also happy to follow any specific instructions you have to maintain your dog’s routine and comfort. You can count on updates so you feel confident while you’re away.
“This is my first time having Stephanie taking care of my dog while I'm out of town for 3 weeks and I'm very glad I did it. Before I commit anything Stephanie is very considering and patient to set up a meet & greet to ensure it will work out. Stephanie also sent me updates and pictures so I can see my dog is doing great without issues. I would definitely recommend Stephanie to my friends or anyone looking for dog boarding.”
“Shelby has a love for dogs where you need not worry about your fur-baby in her care. She opened her home and her heart to our little dog. The pictures she sent during our away time, let us know that JoJo was content and happy. Administering his medication was no problem for Shelby. As an added bonus, she had washed his bowls and laundered his blanket and packed ready for pickup. We sincerely recommend Shelby’s home for your dog’s vacation while you are away!”
“10 out of 10, 100% recommend. The sweetest family with amazing hospitality! AC immediately became comfortable with Dan. She provided photo updates all throughout the day. She was very thorough and intentional with care. Will definitely be a returning customer.”
“Gabriella was a terrific host for my boy Jax. She gave me many updates with pictures and videos and met all Dietary needs my 10 year old pup needed. She is very nice and friendly and her dog Yeti is very friendly and happy to see other dogs. My dog tends to have some anxiety but the atmosphere was so positive for him he was playing with toys and her dog Yeti in no time. I highly recommend her for any services you might need for your dogs. Thank you for taking great care of my boy I appreciate it!”

About: I'm Sean, a lifelong dog owner offering Boarding and Doggy Day Care. I work from home full time in Oldham County, steps away from great dog walks along the Ohio River. Your dog gets supervised attention all day, long outdoor walks, in a friendly and fun environment for dogs of any age, breed or size. I lost my dog of 14 years in early 2026 and I'm channeling that love into caring for yours. Taking good care of your pet allows me to do something I truly enjoy while giving you peace of mind while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! I am available full-time and every dog is unique, so you can expect that I will tailor each day to your pet's age, energy level, personality, exercise requirements, feeding schedule, and any special instructions you provide. Mornings will include an early morning potty break and outdoor time, breakfast according to your dog's normal feeding schedule, a walk, play session, or quiet outdoor exploration depending on your dog's preferences. There will be plenty of attention and companionship as the day begins. Throughout the day there will be multiple supervised outdoor breaks in the spacious yard and surrounding dog friendly areas. This will include long walks, short walks, play sessions, or relaxation time based on your dog's needs. Fresh water will be available at all times. There will be frequent interaction, supervision, and companionship since I work from home and there will also be comfortable indoor rest periods between activities. Afternoons and evenings will include additional outdoor exercise and activities, dinner according to your dog's established routine, relaxation time indoors with plenty of attention and affection, evening potty breaks and if necessary a walk before bedtime. Individualized care is important for your dog's well being, so before your dog's stay, I will learn about feeding schedules and dietary restrictions, medication requirements, favorite activities and exercise preferences, commands and training cues your dog responds to, sleeping habits and comfort needs and any special routines that will help your dog feel at home. My goal is to maintain as much of your dog's normal routine as possible. During your pets stay your dog will enjoy exercise, companionship, and personalized care. Long walks and adventure or a relaxed day of lounging and affection await so your pet will feel right at home. For safety, dogs are always walked on leash. I am always happy to arrange a meet and greet, either in person or by video call, so you can feel completely comfortable before booking.

“Shelby was FANTASTIC with our Sherman. He was very nervous when we left him (he has separation anxiety). Not only did he seem to do well after we left (the pictures she sent us spoke volumes about his mood), but when i picked him up he was excited to see us as always but instead of running straight to the car and waiting at the door for us as he usually does when we pick him up from someone he did a couple of excited circles and had to run back to give one of Shelbys pups a kiss goodbye. He often stays with my sister and he loves her and her dogs but he never runs back to the door for any reason. He was so relaxed and clearly worn out feom playing so much. Shelby is terrific. You xan certainly entrust her qith the care of your fur-baby with confidence!”

“Absolutely some of the best caretaking Charlie has had! Lori was great with Charlie. We met beforehand with her sweet pup to make sure the dogs would get along, and I really appreciated her thoroughness and quick communication. During his stay, Charlie got to run around and play with other dogs at her home and her family’s farm, but also had time to rest and relax. He was such a happy boy when we picked him up and slept the whole way home! 10/10 would recommend Lori!!”

I will follow your instruction and guidelines in an organized and detailed manner. My experience in a vet clinic also allows me to feel comfortable with any pet care situation.
About: I have experience with both young and older pets. With puppies and kittens, I stay consistent with routines and can help reinforce basic training like potty habits, feeding schedules, and positive behavior. For senior pets, I’m gentle and attentive to their needs, whether that means giving medication, moving at a slower pace, or just providing extra comfort and companionship. I also make sure pet owners feel at ease by keeping communication open—I can send updates, photos, and check-ins so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to create a stress-free experience for both you and your pet. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for. I make time for walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day, and I’m consistent with routines so pets feel comfortable and secure. Throughout the week, I stay flexible to meet each pet’s specific needs, whether that’s extra visits, longer walks, or special care. I’m reliable and make sure every pet gets the attention and care they deserve. In my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets are comfortable, safe, and kept on their normal routine. I follow all feeding instructions, give fresh water, regular potty breaks, and plenty of exercise and attention. I also provide playtime, affection, and calm companionship so they feel at ease while you’re away. I keep the space clean and always respect the client’s home just like it’s my own.
About: I’m a SAHM with 3 active kids ages 10,6,5. Animals have been a part of our lives since the day we all could walk. When your animal is in our care we will give them all the love and attention they deserve. We also try and accommodate their normal schedule as much as possible. Whether that be laying and relaxing, or going out for multiple walks. I also have a fenced in back yard for those days where they want to play fetch. We have 2 other pets, one cat and one dog, which both are super laid back. Please make sure your animal loves kids, as they will be around ALOT and will probably over love on your animals ;) Just a house full of love and we love welcoming new ones in! It is now summer break which means.... WE ARE HOME every day! This means tons of walks, play time, nap times, pee breaks. Your animal unless other wise told, will have free roam to our house. We have safety gates that will be put up, if you feel more comfortable them staying in one room. I have a backyard, and if the animal is needing to be crated I can also accommodate that. My animals however, are allowed anywhere in the house that I or my family is allowed. Bedrooms, beds, couches, outside!

“Destinee and her husband took my dog at the last second after another sitter backed out 30 minutes before I was to drop him off. Not only did they help me out in a pinch, but they were absolutely amazing and took wonderful care of my dog. I will 100% use them again in the future.”
“Worked with Angela only. She was communicative, professional, and I trust them. Everything worked out great, Theo is back home, happy, and in good health.”
“This was my first time using Rover and Sean did a great job. I have two large dogs and had concerns with leaving them at another persons house. We completed a meet and greet, walked the dogs and agreed we would complete the booking process. Sean did a great job of communicating throughout the visit and made sure both of my dogs got plenty of time outside and plenty of walks. Sean went above and beyond for my pups! Will definitely book with him in the future.”
“First time using Kelsey for our pet sitter! She was great with both of my fur babies. She was very flexible with drop off and pick up time. I also liked that she wanted to do a meet and greet before sitting them. No other sitter on Rover has requested or said anything about doing that. Kelsey also provided updates throughout Tink and Trig's stay. I highly recommend her for pet sitting needs!”
“Beth took amazing care of Monty! He got plenty of exercise and attention and I got plenty of updates while I was away. It was clear when he got home that he was far happier than when I've had to kennel him on trips. I would definitely call Beth again when I go out of town.”

“Gabriella was a terrific host for my boy Jax. She gave me many updates with pictures and videos and met all Dietary needs my 10 year old pup needed. She is very nice and friendly and her dog Yeti is very friendly and happy to see other dogs. My dog tends to have some anxiety but the atmosphere was so positive for him he was playing with toys and her dog Yeti in no time. I highly recommend her for any services you might need for your dogs. Thank you for taking great care of my boy I appreciate it!”
