“In our first visit, Sean was great with Opal. She got over her leash reactive response in just 5 minutes and had a wonderful time playing all night with two new friends. We look forward to lots more visits with Sean. Strongly recommend.”
“I can’t say enough good things about these folks. To start, they spent an hour with me and Benny (my pup) in advance of my trip and introduced us to their place. Benny loved the big backyard and I could tell he immediately felt at home. During my trip, I received daily videos of Benny playing with other dogs or being loved on, which made me feel good knowing I was so far away from home. Benny is such a good dog and I am grateful to have connected with people as equally good and loving. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.”
“My two dogs had a fantastic stay, also getting so much playtime and attention both inside and outside in the backyard. So happy they took great care with my dogs and that their kids were also super involved yet gentle with the dogs. I'll definitely use this sitter again!”
“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.”
“Beth was so nice and absolutely wonderful! I love that she likes to meet the dogs ahead of time to make sure they are a right fit for her and her adorable sweet dog. She sent lots of pictures and updates and will definitely book again with her!”
“Our pup, Vaanya, had a great time with Alexis, Daniel and their family. Vaanya took to their family and home like her own, and was dearly taken care of while we were on travel for two weeks. We will certainly look to Rover with our hosts again in the future. Recommend 10/10.”
“Bill was amazing watching our hound, who can be anxious. He had great communication and sent plenty of pics throughout her stay. She seemed very relaxed when we picked her up! Will be using his services again.”
“Elizabeth and Phil were awesome pet hosts and took such good care of our two dogs. They were super communicative and sent pictures of their adventures on walks and at the dog park. Would highly recommend!!”
“Our 2 dogs had an amazing time with Megan, Axel and the family. We appreciated the attention to detail of what our dogs needed, and the pictures sent of them. They really enjoyed themselves and were wore out from playing with Axel and one another while we were away. Would highly recommend Meagan for your pet’s booking needs. We will book again forsure!”
“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!”
“Carla did a great job making us feel better about leaving our pups. She kept in touch by sending us pictures and updates on our fur babies daily. They were in excellent condition when we picked them up. We have no problem highly recommending Carla and as the need arises we will use her again.”
“Sarah sis really great with our dogs. They came home happy, healthy, and well-cared for. Sarah took they on walks and allowed them on couches and beds. We are so appreciate of her and the positive stay had by our pups! Would recommend and book again.”
“Very communicative, friendly, caring, and overall a great experience. They gave us updates on Maggie, how/what she was doing, and pictures. We could tell they love what they do and care about the dogs in their charge. They went out of their way to do a meet-and-greet upfront, and they care that the dogs are a good fit and will get along. Will definitely be using them regularly in the future.”
“I was so nervous to leave my puppy but after meeting Shelby, I knew he was in great hands. She sent us daily photos and our little guy was so well taken care of. I will absolutely use Shelby again! Highly recommend! 10/10! ⭐️”
“Kaitlyn was a perfect host for our pug, Ridley, during the holidays. She kept in touch with regular updates and quick responses as needed. Thank you for being flexible while we dealt with flight abs travel delays!”
About: I have loved and cared for animals all my life. Most recently I began regularly fostering dogs with LMAS. I have fostered over a dozen dogs of all ages but I specialize with puppies. I focus on house and crate training with puppies and I enjoy multiple daily walks through my neighborhood park. I currently work from home from 9-5 and I am free on weekends. In my spare time I enjoy running and riding my bike. I believe in the more the merrier so if your pup is up to join I'm all for it! My home has a moderately sized fenced in backyard and a screened in patio that is very popular with my foster puppies. I enjoy house and crate training and I have had a lot of success through threshold training. I have a Siberian Husky and a Tabby Cat that get along with each other and they also love making new friends.
About: Walks.Play.Snuggle.Repeat. I've had dogs and cats my whole life and treat them with the love and care I would any family member. My early work experience was in vet clinics and animal rescues. I'm a proud mama to 2 small, well socialized, friendly dogs and 3 cats . All of the animals are great with new dog friends. We would love to give you some peace of mind that your fur baby is well taken care of while you are away. I work from home and the dogs have beds and toys in my office and all over my large house.

“As usual, Elizabeth was a fantastic cat sitter for my two cats! She is absolutely the best to work with and makes sure they are well taken care of while we are away! I love seeing the photos and the updates and it feels calming knowing they’re okay! I highly recommend Elizabeth every time!”
“Penny did an exceptional job caring for our two cats during our 2.5‑week international trip. She was reliable, easy to reach, and provided daily messages with photos, which gave us great peace of mind. We had a minor hiccup with our automated litter box being unplugged before we left (100% our fault), and Penny helped us resolve it quickly and smoothly. Our cats were relaxed and happy when we returned, which speaks to the attentive care she provided. Thank you so much, Penny!”
“Mary did a great job taking care of my cat fluff while I was out of town for a week. She loved on her, fed her and cleaned her litter daily. I would definitely recommend her and be happy to use her services again.”
“This is my first time using Rover or having a pet sitter outside family/friends watch my cats. I was a little nervous leaving them with someone new, but I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Joanna was great with my cats. She was very communicative and left detailed notes of her visits. I would definitely have her watch my cats again. Thank you so much!”
“Mitzi was absolutely fabulous!! I always try to find a cat-sitter who has experience with cats and they were very very fast friends. Mitzi kept me updated frequently throughout the weekend and was so sweet!”
“I was so happy to be able to book Donai again. Second time’s a charm! I knew my cats were in great hands, and I always loved seeing the Rover reports and pictures while I was enjoying my trip. Thanks for your flexibility and your clear communication!”
“This is my second time using Missy and she is wonderful! My two cats are seniors with health issues that require medication twice daily and I don’t stress when I leave town for a couple of days. I will definitely schedule with her again!”
About: I adopted a rambunctious shelter cat 5 years ago. She’s a wild child with a big personality! And I took in a stray cat about 2 years ago, who needed lots of care, including surgeries, food insecurity behaviors, etc. I’ve cared for cats my entire life, but these 2 girls have taught me how to handle the extremes. I am very knowledgeable about cats and their needs, and I can promise you, your baby will be taken care of as if they were my own (aka like perfect princess angels that I’d go to war for)
“Grace was fantastic! Oliver clearly loved spending time with her! She went above and beyond and relieved my stress of having to leave my pup at home for so long. I will definitely be booking again in the future 😄”
“This was my first time using a pet sitter and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my cats. I was nervous about leaving them but was able to enjoy my trip without worrying, thanks to Debbie. She gave daily updates and was very kind and accommodating in our interactions. I highly recommend Debbie and am looking forward to working with her again for our future trips!”
About: I've had dogs, cats, and rabbits but have also cared for guinea pigs, turtles and fish. Caring for your pet the way you do is most important. I am available most days and times. My open availability leaves you with piece of mind knowing there's someone that can help any time of the day. I have a big yard and will be spending lots of time outside. Really big on taking hikes, and playing ball. Staying hydrated will also be priority.non smoker.
“Eleanor was absolutely amazing!! She was so attentive to my cat while I was out of town, I was able to have a worry free vacation because of her! I will definitely be booking her again in the future!!!”
About: I grew up with multiple pets, we often called it the "Cook Family Zoo". I've helped take care of many cats, dogs, turtles, fish and even ferrets at one point! I currently have two dogs a terrier/cattle dog mix and a German shepherd/lab mix puppy! They both are rescues and love to cuddle. I volunteer with a local dog rescue and am a proud foster fail. :) I’m passionate about protecting all furry friends and finding the perfect home for each loving animal. I love all animals, big or small, and do my best to be flexible and communicate with you quickly and thoroughly. I hope you will consider me to help take care of your loved ones and I will be sure to give them lots of love while you're away. Currently working full time but have availability on weekends and most evenings to help out! I also have flexibility at work so depending on your needs can make drop in visits and walks during the day. I work from home occasionally too so I can usually be flexible as needed. If visiting your home I would respect your wishes around routine training, diet and behavior. I typically provide photos and/or text updates of your pet so you know they’re doing well and we’ll looked after even when you’re not able to be there!
About: I’ve cared for two cats of my own and have often been trusted by friends and family to look after theirs. I truly love checking in on kitties—feeding them, giving them attention, and making sure they feel safe and loved while their people are away.
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was a child, but have had my 3 cats for 13 years now. I recently moved, so I let them live with my mom sadly, I do miss them. Outside of my cats, I have helped walk and care for other dogs the past few years. If you give special instructions on how you would like for me to care for your dog/cat, I will do exactly that since I will be coming to your place and/or walking them. UPDATED AS OF 6/16/26- for now please refer to this update until life gets less busy. I have a 2 year old so I cannot watch your animals at your home at this current time, but I would still love to drop in and take care of them through the day or take them on walks. I can care for them at my home also. The hours listed below are still correct 😊 I work Monday-Friday until 3:30pm, but I can also come before work, take my lunch to let your pups out for a potty break half way through my shift! I always am off on the holidays. I do have every Saturday and Sunday completely free. After 3:30pm on the weekdays I have the entire day to spend with your animals :) I will follow all your instructions you give me for caring for your animals. I will always treat them like I would my own animals!

“From first hello, Sean was gentle with Winnie, who can be nervous around new men. He was so thorough and professional in communicating with us and was completely flexible with our return time, as we tooled around Louisville to see the sights. We could not have felt more secure knowing Sean was looking after our girl (and walking her down to the Ohio River was just icing on the cake). Recommend Sean highly!!!”

“Stephen and Angela provided daycare for about 2 weeks for my pup. They took great care of him and were very understanding with schedule changes. I would recommend them!”
“We are from out of town, in Indiana for a short time. We received a last minute invite to go to Churchill downs - Elizabeth accepted our request to puppy sit... and our pupp had the best day! We received pictures and videos of her playing and living her best life. We felt totally at ease and relaxed knowing our little Willi was in great hands.”
“Jared and Waverly were so nice and great care givers. I loved that we video chatted in advance to meet and ensure a good match. They were super flexible and very easy to communicate with. We, and Glory, thank them for making us all very happy!”
About: I've cared for animals my entire life. Animals in my home are well loved; including baths if requested, exercise, and lots of play! I'm very accommodating. I work full-time from home, mostly on virtual meetings spread throughout the day. I'm up early each day and always ready for a nice walk! My yard is mostly fenced, but dogs would be kept on a leash for safety. Pets are welcome to sleep on any furniture. Food and water is available at all times in the kitchen.
“I’m so happy Bear had a great time with this sitter, she was amazing at being available short notice and took very good care of my dog. I highly recommend this sitter!”
“Kaitlan is very professional and communicated with me by text promptly every time. We are in a motorhome and use Rover to find out of town pet sitters so we can find a safe place for my pups to stay during the day while we tour different areas. She was great.”

About: Dogs have always been family in my home, and that’s exactly how I treat every pup who stays here. My name is Keith and I share a home with my wife, Natalie; our 4-year-old Irish Wolfhound, Bernie, and our 6-year-old daughter, who has grown up loving and being around dogs. The home has a large, fully fenced-in yard with plenty of room for dogs to run, play, explore, or just lounge outside. Inside, the home is completely dog-friendly—couches, furniture, snuggles and all! I want your dog to feel like they’re staying with family rather than being boarded. One of the biggest benefits of staying here is that someone is almost always home. I work from home 90% of the time and the whole family is home on the weekends, so your pup will get plenty of attention, supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. They won’t spend their stay sitting alone for hours. Having an Irish Wolfhound has also given me plenty of experience with large and giant breeds, but I genuinely love dogs of all sizes and personalities. I understand how stressful it can be to leave your dog with someone new, so my goal is to follow their normal routine as closely as possible and make them feel safe, comfortable, loved, and included while they’re here. And of course, I am happy to send plenty of pictures and updates so you can see what your pup is up to! 🐶❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my everyday routine. I work from home majority of the time, so someone is almost always here. This means your pup won’t be left alone for long periods and will get plenty of attention, playtime, outside time, and cuddles throughout the day. I am available for weekday and weekend boarding and love having an extra furry family member around! The home has a large, fully fenced-in backyard with plenty of room for dogs to safely run, play, and explore. I also have a sweet 4-year-old Irish Wolfhound named Bernie who is very much part of our family. We have a 6-year-old daughter who has grown up around dogs and understands how to be gentle and respectful with them. The home is very dog-friendly—pups are welcome on the furniture, encouraged to get comfortable, and treated like part of the family while they’re here. I am also happy to follow your dog’s normal feeding, sleeping, medication, crate, or exercise routine so they feel as comfortable and secure as possible.
“Kimba had a great time with Sarah. She took great care of Kimba and sent pictures throughout the day. Sarah is very responsive and makes me feel at ease. Kimba has a lot of separation anxiety and it was clear from the photos and when we picked her up that she’d had a great day. I know Kimba was in good hands with Sarah. I’d use her again next time we are in town.”
About: I had dogs and cats in my house my entire childhood. I helped feed them and walk them, gave them medications and played with them. I’ve even given a rowdy Doberman eye drops 😅 long story short, since moving away, I’m looking to have more pets in my life. As for cats, I also grew up cleaning litter boxes and dealing with diet changes. I’ve brushed cats on a very regular basis and love playing with them. I am also here to listen for any other requests or special needs that your pet may have! Whether that be for medications, treats, specifications for walking, training commands, etc. I’m here for you! I am currently working part time with an extremely flexible schedule. I am a stay at home mom expecting my first in August 2024 and spend time taking care of my own dog as well! I am an animal lover, so I am all about the pets, cuddles, and play time! I love to run around with them, play fetch, or just let them do their thing. All animals have different needs and I’m all about observing and listening to them in the moment.
“My puppy Leroy had a blast with Racheal! She was very flexible with times and was great with communicating with us! This was his first time being out of the house and he loved it!”
“Jewels was amazing with Mya and this was our first time getting a sitter and she eased my mind with leaving her. Mya had the best time and came home so happy!”

About: Hi there! My name is Morgan, and I’m a dedicated pet parent to two lovable doodles. Caring for animals isn’t just what I do—it’s who I am! I understand how much your furry friends mean to you, and I’m here to provide them with the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just making sure they’re happy and safe, I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own. With years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, you can trust that your pets are in good hands. Let’s make their tails wag together! Pet care seamlessly fits into my daily routine, especially since I work from home. My two doodles are my constant companions, and their needs naturally shape my day.

Working from home allows me to be attentive and consistent, providing plenty of time for fun and affection. Pet care isn’t just part of my schedule—it’s a fulfilling part of my everyday life! In my home, I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where pets can feel at ease and cared for like family. I ensure they have plenty of attention, playtime, and relaxation in a stress-free atmosphere. Whether it’s feeding, monitoring their behavior, or engaging in activities to keep them happy and healthy, I focus on their individual needs and routines.
About: I have several years of working with, dogs, cats, as well as small animals such as hamsters, and bunnies. I am currently a veterinary student so I can also sit your animals like birds, reptiles, ect. I have a part time job that is extremely flexible and currently my classes are online with certain classes throughout the month where I have to physically be there. I will up date you with my schedule accordingly. Since I have this much flexibility I tend to say I’m free. :) I currently have a dog and two cats who are very friendly. My orange tabby is very shy so he runs and hides a lot but my other cat is very sweet and sociable. My dog is the same, he grew up around other smaller dogs and cats. He does have anxiety around bigger dogs so he’ll hide behind me when meeting one.
“Colin was absolutely amazing! I found him on short notice and he was super accommodating. I have a yorkie puppy who seemed to play fabulously with his Yorkies. Pups came back super tired from all the play time all while Colin kept me up to date with photos throughout the day. Highly recommend and will use again!”
About: Hello! You can call me Wendy. I’m a tenured physics professor and a lifelong animal lover. I currently have three cats of my own and 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’m patient, reliable, detail-oriented, and committed to making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their family is away. For pets boarding in my home, I understand that some pets may be more comfortable having their own space. If you prefer, I can keep my three cats completely separate from your pet for the entire stay, so your pet can relax in a safe, quiet environment. 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.

“Breagha is a friendly pup but with all the recent changes in our lives has become pretty velcro with me. She took to Allie immediately and trusted her enough to trot out across the porch without me. She willingly went out in the yard for a short walk. Allie’s kind gentle personality is a perfect match for a sensitive collie.”
About: I've been surrounded by dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, turtles, frogs and fish for 35+ years. I've raised, house-trained, walked, entertained and loved a variety of dogs and cats my entire life. I never get tired of these sweet creatures! I have experience with all dogs and cats, regardless of age, breed or temperament. As I'm now only working part-time providing early intervention services for children, and am self-employed, I have a great deal of flexibility to care for your dogs and cats. I'm available for drop-ins to feed, play with and care for your sweet pets as needed - throughout the day and night - as well as dog-walking, as it fits into your schedule. I've spent the last 20+ years working as a teacher and developmental therapist, educating children who have developmental delays and disabilities. Now, I've decided to focus additionally on my love of animals. Since I was a small child, I've adored pets, and have many years of experience caring for a variety of them. I'm very patient and appreciative of each animal's personality. I currently have 3 dogs and 3 cats of my own, and have used this service as a customer as well, so I can understand your point of view as "parents".
“Tiffany is fantastic! She arrived on time and took great care of my dogs. She provided photos and communicated during the visit. My dogs were well cared for, allowing me to relax and enjoy my time away.”
“awhh!!! she eased me nerves so good! she spent the extra time with my baby letting her play and get to know her!! my dog has a ton of anxiety and they are besties now!! so pleased with this experience!”
“My dog has been struggling with severe separation anxiety, and meeting Kaylee has given us hope. When I first reached out, she was incredibly kind and eager to help. At our meet and greet, my dog is usually very cautious and nervous around strangers, but he warmed up to her quickly, which immediately made me feel more comfortable. During the visit, she stayed calm when he became anxious, comforted him throughout the visit, and helped him settle while I was away. I really appreciated her communication and the updates she gave me afterward about how he did. I’m looking forward to continuing to work with her and seeing how things progress. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a respectful, communicative, and caring pet sitter.”

Outside of my cats, I have helped walk and care for other dogs the past few years. If you give special instructions on how you would like for me to care for your dog/cat, I will do exactly that since I will be coming to your place and/or walking them. UPDATED AS OF 6/16/26- for now please refer to this update until life gets less busy. I have a 2 year old so I cannot watch your animals at your home at this current time, but I would still love to drop in and take care of them through the day or take them on walks. I can care for them at my home also. The hours listed below are still correct 😊 I work Monday-Friday until 3:30pm, but I can also come before work, take my lunch to let your pups out for a potty break half way through my shift! I always am off on the holidays. I do have every Saturday and Sunday completely free. After 3:30pm on the weekdays I have the entire day to spend with your animals :) I will follow all your instructions you give me for caring for your animals. I will always treat them like I would my own animals!
About: I own my own dog, who is well trained, along with caring for neighbors dogs, and training. I have puppy sat at my own home for multiple nights. In my free time I watch a lot of dog training videos and love to do animal research. I enjoy cats while I do have limited experience. I am a full time college student however, I have my evenings free on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and weekends work great for me as well. I love training and I am extremely passionate about animals research so I love to learn more. I am detail oriented, and I have a dog of my own and have pet sat before so I have experience. I am really good with communication and respond frequently and in a timely manner, and I am relatively flexible with timing if need be.
About: Hi! I have been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember, and animals have always been one of my biggest passions. I currently have two rescue dogs and a rescue kitten, so I am constantly surrounded by animals and am very familiar with the care, attention, and love they require. My dogs are apartment dogs with a small yard, so we average about 5–6 walks a day. Walking, playing with, and loving on animals are genuinely some of my favorite things to do. My mission is to provide the best care possible for your pet while also making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I have plenty of experience caring for puppies, kittens, elderly dogs and cats, administering medications, animal hygiene, and more. I am comfortable around animals of any size, color, or breed, and I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. When I come to walk, play with, visit, or take care of your animals, I will dedicate my time to making sure they are happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I love being able to spend my time doing something I genuinely enjoy while giving other people peace of mind knowing their pets are being cared for. A little about my own pets: I have my Pittie, Bandit, who is 6 years old and a rescue. I also have Koda, my 3 month old Pitbull/German Shepherd mix who is also a rescue. Lastly, I have Loki, my 4 month old rescue kitten. They are my world, and I would treat your pets with that same love and care! I am a full-time online student at ASU, which means I am home most of the time and have very open availability. I am also very flexible and can often accept last-minute bookings I have a fenced in yard and two very friendly dogs! I also walk my dogs very frequently and don’t mind to add more to our walks. I have a large 2 bedroom apartment with plenty of space and beds for playing, sleeping, and zoomies!
About: I’ve cared for pets my whole life, from playful puppies to chill senior dogs and independent cats. I make sure they’re happy, safe, and loved, follow their routines, and don’t mind giving meds or keeping things clean. Every pet gets attention, playtime, and lots of love while their owners are away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, I already spend a lot of time walking, playing with, and caring for my own pets. I enjoy starting and ending my day with animals, whether it’s morning feedings, playtime, or evening walks. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine consistent and their environment calm and familiar. I make sure they’re well fed, exercised, and given plenty of attention, whether that’s playtime, walks, or quiet company.
About: I am a state certified veterinary technician and also someone who has had a love for all animals since I was a kid. I've been helping all animals personally (and then professionally) for years...actually decades! I treat all fur-babies as I would my own. The unconditional love we receive from our pets is something I treasure and never take for granted. Whether young pups and kittens, or senior dogs and cats, I give them all the attention and love they deserve and crave (especially while their parents/owners are away). My schedule is currently wide open, as I have just moved back to Prospect, KY recently and am looking for the right fit in a veterinary clinic or animal hospital. My schedule is quite flexible, so I can work around yours. With my state certified veterinary technician license I am able to do things that others are not. I can also tell you what may be a start of an ear infection or allergies or nothing at all! I enjoy going to dog parks, taking walks, playing fetch (or keep away haha) but also enjoy the quiet calm time while rubbing bellies and brushing hair. Also dog massages for the senior dogs helps tons with their aches and pains and I more than willing to assist. It actually puts them in a calming trance. Cats and I are a sort of soul mate (maybe it’s the name haha) but I have dealt with watching 5 cats at an owners house and 3 of the 5 had special medical needs that I was more than happy to help! They started booking me a year out ahead of time if they could!

“In our first visit, Sean was great with Opal. She got over her leash reactive response in just 5 minutes and had a wonderful time playing all night with two new friends. We look forward to lots more visits with Sean. Strongly recommend.”
“My two dogs had a fantastic stay, also getting so much playtime and attention both inside and outside in the backyard. So happy they took great care with my dogs and that their kids were also super involved yet gentle with the dogs. I'll definitely use this sitter again!”
“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.”
“Beth was so nice and absolutely wonderful! I love that she likes to meet the dogs ahead of time to make sure they are a right fit for her and her adorable sweet dog. She sent lots of pictures and updates and will definitely book again with her!”
“Our pup, Vaanya, had a great time with Alexis, Daniel and their family. Vaanya took to their family and home like her own, and was dearly taken care of while we were on travel for two weeks. We will certainly look to Rover with our hosts again in the future. Recommend 10/10.”
“Bill was amazing watching our hound, who can be anxious. He had great communication and sent plenty of pics throughout her stay. She seemed very relaxed when we picked her up! Will be using his services again.”
“Elizabeth and Phil were awesome pet hosts and took such good care of our two dogs. They were super communicative and sent pictures of their adventures on walks and at the dog park. Would highly recommend!!”
“Our 2 dogs had an amazing time with Megan, Axel and the family. We appreciated the attention to detail of what our dogs needed, and the pictures sent of them. They really enjoyed themselves and were wore out from playing with Axel and one another while we were away. Would highly recommend Meagan for your pet’s booking needs. We will book again forsure!”
“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!”
“Sarah sis really great with our dogs. They came home happy, healthy, and well-cared for. Sarah took they on walks and allowed them on couches and beds. We are so appreciate of her and the positive stay had by our pups! Would recommend and book again.”
“Very communicative, friendly, caring, and overall a great experience. They gave us updates on Maggie, how/what she was doing, and pictures. We could tell they love what they do and care about the dogs in their charge. They went out of their way to do a meet-and-greet upfront, and they care that the dogs are a good fit and will get along. Will definitely be using them regularly in the future.”
About: I have loved and cared for animals all my life. Most recently I began regularly fostering dogs with LMAS. I have fostered over a dozen dogs of all ages but I specialize with puppies. I focus on house and crate training with puppies and I enjoy multiple daily walks through my neighborhood park. I currently work from home from 9-5 and I am free on weekends. In my spare time I enjoy running and riding my bike. I believe in the more the merrier so if your pup is up to join I'm all for it! My home has a moderately sized fenced in backyard and a screened in patio that is very popular with my foster puppies. I enjoy house and crate training and I have had a lot of success through threshold training. I have a Siberian Husky and a Tabby Cat that get along with each other and they also love making new friends.
About: Walks.Play.Snuggle.Repeat. I've had dogs and cats my whole life and treat them with the love and care I would any family member. My early work experience was in vet clinics and animal rescues. I'm a proud mama to 2 small, well socialized, friendly dogs and 3 cats . All of the animals are great with new dog friends. We would love to give you some peace of mind that your fur baby is well taken care of while you are away. I work from home and the dogs have beds and toys in my office and all over my large house. We are located in Clarksville, just off the I 65 Eastern Blvd exit. I live on a double lot with a huge, fully fenced yard. Small dogs have doggie door access to come in and out as they please. Bigger dogs will be regularly let out for supervised play and potty breaks in the yard. All have a lovely sunroom to sit and watch the birds and squirrels that frequent my feeders. I have a lot of experience with senior dogs and cats dietary needs, medication administration. Looking forward to being your dog's home away from home! I work from home on a flexible schedule so I am able to check on and interact with the dogs frequently. They will be supervised during outside play.

“Ryo was great with Piper. They provided updates and pictures throughout our trip. I could tell that Piper enjoyed himself as well, upon his return home. I will definitely refer Ryo to other friends and family looking for a sitter.”
About: Dogs have always been family in my home, and that’s exactly how I treat every pup who stays here. My name is Keith and I share a home with my wife, Natalie; our 4-year-old Irish Wolfhound, Bernie, and our 6-year-old daughter, who has grown up loving and being around dogs. The home has a large, fully fenced-in yard with plenty of room for dogs to run, play, explore, or just lounge outside. Inside, the home is completely dog-friendly—couches, furniture, snuggles and all! I want your dog to feel like they’re staying with family rather than being boarded. One of the biggest benefits of staying here is that someone is almost always home. I work from home 90% of the time and the whole family is home on the weekends, so your pup will get plenty of attention, supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. They won’t spend their stay sitting alone for hours. Having an Irish Wolfhound has also given me plenty of experience with large and giant breeds, but I genuinely love dogs of all sizes and personalities. I understand how stressful it can be to leave your dog with someone new, so my goal is to follow their normal routine as closely as possible and make them feel safe, comfortable, loved, and included while they’re here. And of course, I am happy to send plenty of pictures and updates so you can see what your pup is up to! 🐶❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my everyday routine. I work from home majority of the time, so someone is almost always here. This means your pup won’t be left alone for long periods and will get plenty of attention, playtime, outside time, and cuddles throughout the day. I am available for weekday and weekend boarding and love having an extra furry family member around! The home has a large, fully fenced-in backyard with plenty of room for dogs to safely run, play, and explore. I also have a sweet 4-year-old Irish Wolfhound named Bernie who is very much part of our family. We have a 6-year-old daughter who has grown up around dogs and understands how to be gentle and respectful with them. The home is very dog-friendly—pups are welcome on the furniture, encouraged to get comfortable, and treated like part of the family while they’re here. I am also happy to follow your dog’s normal feeding, sleeping, medication, crate, or exercise routine so they feel as comfortable and secure as possible.
“Dan gave the best accommodation for my golden. Very responsive and was also able to take him on very short notice. He had great time at her home and kids gave best playtime for him. She had updated the status and sent photos all day which I liked very much. I would definitely recommend her and also drop my golden in future.”
