Absolutely wonderful with my two dogs; they were taken very good care of, and I got daily pupdates! She was very responsive and understanding to the times I needed to drop off/ pick up my dogs. I will most certainly be boarding my dogs here again when needed.

We couldn’t be happier with the care our puppy received during his overnight stay. From the moment we dropped him off, we felt confident he was in great hands. Communication was excellent — we received updates and pictures that reassured us he was comfortable and having fun. Our pup can be energetic (typical puppy!), and they handled him with patience and care. He came home tired, happy, and clearly well loved. We truly appreciate the attention and kindness shown to him and would recommend!

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.

Lola had an amazing time with Melissa and her family! They sent lots of pictures and updates throughout her stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear Lola was treated like part of the family and received lots of love and attention. I would absolutely recommend Melissa to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter, and we would definitely book with them again!

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!

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.

She accommodated a last minute schedule change and was very kind in that exchange as well. I already expressed that I would love to use her again whenever we need another sitter.

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.

Nikole was a wonderful sitter for Max. She knew I was not comfortable leaving him because I have only left him with a relative before. She sent photos every day and it seemed like he made himself at home right away. I think Max really enjoyed himself and I think he is even more comfortable around other dogs now. Thank you Nikole for taking such good care of my baby!

He must have had fun because he has been asleep since we got home. I felt really comfortable with the care she provided and plan to use her again soon.

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!

Easy Peasy…Kirsten and her husband made it easy for us to leave our dogs for 5 days. After the meet and great we knew this was the right family for tuck and Athena to hang out with. There two dogs are sooo layed back and helped our dogs “ who initially were being loud and defensive” calm down quickly and go into chill mode it was amazing how mellow there dogs are and that definitely helped our dogs feel less stressed in a new environment. We received updates every day and one picture showed tuck chilling on there couch with a smile on his face “ that says it all” . Great environment and family to leave your dog kids with, I highly recommend them for sure. Thank you guys for taking care of our dogs and making the whole process so easy..??

About: Hello! My name is Mirte (pronounced meer‑tah), and I’ve been caring for pets professionally for several years now. I share my home with a sweet kitty named Evie and a goofy beagle named Mylo, and I adore them both like family. That same level of love, patience, and attention is what I bring to every cat I care for. 󠁺 Before pursuing social work I originally planned to become a veterinary technician, so my love for animals runs deep. Cats have always held a special place in my heart. Whether your kitty is shy, social, playful, or independent, I connect in a way that feels right for them. 🐈🧶 󠁺 My schedule is very flexible right now since I’ve just wrapped up my internship, and I offer everything from drop‑ins to overnight stays. I always prefer meeting in person beforehand so you and your cat feel completely at ease. 󠁺 I’d love to connect and support you however I can; your pet’s well‑being truly matters to me.

About: I’ve been passionate about animals for as long as I can remember, having owned and cared for several animals (mostly dogs and cats) throughout the years. I understand that pets are family, and I'm committed to giving them the love, attention, and care they deserve. With hands-on experience in administering medications whether orally, topically, or even intravenously I'm confident in handling pets with special medical needs. Whether your pet requires daily meds, a little extra TLC, or just a fun and safe companion while you're away, I'm here to provide top-notch care. I take pride in making sure every pet in my care feels safe, comfortable, and happy. Whether it's a playful walk, a cozy cuddle, or simply ensuring their routine stays consistent, I treat every pet like my own. I work full time M-F but I am available on evening and weekends to take care of your fur babies! For house sitting I am available from the time I get to your home from work until the time I go back to work the next day and then any time I'm not working you can expect me to be at your home. I am a very trustworthy person especially when it comes to others and there pets. My animals are my children so I only give them the upmost care they deserve and even though some would disagree I totally spoil them too. Animals have always had such a special place in my heart and I feel like I was born to care for them.

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!!

Nikole and her family were great to Eva. She had fun with Daisy the whole day in their yard. Nikole sent me pictures and updates during the day. It was cold and Nikole followed my advice to put the winter coat on Eva as she is not used to the snow. Also, Eva is Brazilian and Nikole was able to learn few words in Portuguese to be able to communicate with her. I booked Nikole to watch Eva next week again and will continue to book her every time I travel. Eva has a second home in Indiana.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my strong attention to detail and the level of care and communication I provide. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs so they feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I’m experienced with both puppies who need consistency and positive reinforcement, as well as senior pets who may require extra patience, monitoring, or medication. I prioritize clear, ongoing communication by regularly checking in with owners, sending updates and photos, and making sure they feel confident about how their pets are doing. I’m also happy to help with small errands, such as picking up pet supplies or essentials, to make time away as stress-free as possible. I treat every pet as if they were my own and every home with care and respect. Not scared of dirty work, cleaning litter boxes, wiping paws and administering meds. I currently work from home part time and have a flexible schedule. So I I have a lot of flexibility, for overnights and dropping by during the day. I provide pet care exclusively in the client’s home, allowing pets to remain comfortable in their familiar environment. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, dietary needs, exercise, and daily routines. Care includes providing fresh water, playtime, walks if needed, companionship, and administering medications as directed. I also maintain cleanliness by cleaning litter boxes, cages, and pet areas, and I ensure the home is left tidy and secure after each visit. I prioritize the pet’s safety, comfort, and emotional well-being while providing regular updates to owners for peace of mind.

Absolutely wonderful with my two dogs; they were taken very good care of, and I got daily pupdates! She was very responsive and understanding to the times I needed to drop off/ pick up my dogs. I will most certainly be boarding my dogs here again when needed.

We couldn’t be happier with the care our puppy received during his overnight stay. From the moment we dropped him off, we felt confident he was in great hands. Communication was excellent — we received updates and pictures that reassured us he was comfortable and having fun. Our pup can be energetic (typical puppy!), and they handled him with patience and care. He came home tired, happy, and clearly well loved. We truly appreciate the attention and kindness shown to him and would recommend!

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.

Lola had an amazing time with Melissa and her family! They sent lots of pictures and updates throughout her stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear Lola was treated like part of the family and received lots of love and attention. I would absolutely recommend Melissa to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter, and we would definitely book with them again!

Sorry for the late review! Heather and Alexis were awesome! We forgot to drop off the food and they were sweet enough to let the pups eat some of theirs. They were responsive and kept us up to date! The dogs had a great time and we’ll definitely book for our next trip out of town!

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!

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.

I appreciate Abigail accepting my booking and consistently communicating with me regarding my boy Archie. She sent me updates and pictures and actually spending time with him. She accommodated a last minute schedule change and was very kind in that exchange as well. I already expressed that I would love to use her again whenever we need another sitter.

First time using Tayla. She was quick to respond to my request. Even though I only left my dog for one night, I appreciate that she sent several pics and updates. He must have had fun because he has been asleep since we got home. I felt really comfortable with the care she provided and plan to use her again soon.

This was my first time using Rover, so I didn't know what to expect, but Jennifer was great! Quick communication, and was very accommodating of some last minute changes. I don't know if we'll ever need a sitter in French Lick again, but if we do I wouldn't hesitate to reach out to Jennifer again.

Easy Peasy…Kirsten and her husband made it easy for us to leave our dogs for 5 days. After the meet and great we knew this was the right family for tuck and Athena to hang out with. There two dogs are sooo layed back and helped our dogs “ who initially were being loud and defensive” calm down quickly and go into chill mode it was amazing how mellow there dogs are and that definitely helped our dogs feel less stressed in a new environment. We received updates every day and one picture showed tuck chilling on there couch with a smile on his face “ that says it all” . Great environment and family to leave your dog kids with, I highly recommend them for sure. Thank you guys for taking care of our dogs and making the whole process so easy..??

Samantha was absolutely amazing with my cat! She went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect while I was away. She was reliable, communicative, attentive, and clearly truly cares about animals. I received updates and photos that gave me total peace of mind, and I came home to a happy, relaxed kitty and everything well cared for. I would absolutely book with Samantha again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate sitter. Thank you again, Samantha!

About: I’ve always had animals in the house, multiple dogs at once. I have 2 dogs of my own to keep your pups entertained while you’re away! I have a fenced in yard to let your pup run wild! I am a dog trainer so if there are any problems behaviors (potty/crate training, barking, jumping, Etc.) we can begin to work on those while you’re away! I have a cat in the home, however she’s got a baby gated portion of the house to take a break from the doggy chaos! I currently have staggered schedule so your pup shouldn’t be alone for more than 4 to 6 hours at a time! There will be plenty of opportunities for potty breaks and play time! I believe dogs need physical and mental stimulation during a “stressful period” (aka, you’re on vacation!) and we have plenty of means to do just that!
