“Beth was so patient and kind, I have never left my dog with a non-family member and she's a little codependent but Beth (and Tupac/Kiddo!) were so sweet and made her feel at home. She sent updates over the weekend and was amazing with our pickup/drop off schedule and my anxiety. Thanks so much!”
“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 was fantastic! Very friendly and accommodating. This was our first time leaving our 1 yr old mini labradoodle with someone else. Our pup has a little separation anxiety, so we really liked that Carla has a sweet 1yr old doodle to keep Lexie company. Lexie and Juno were introduced - then started playing and running around the fenced yard immediately.. great fun! You can tell Carla is wonderful with dogs. Lexie had a great staycation! We will call on Carla again to take care of Lexie whenever we leave town - it’s nice to not worry about your fur baby when away!! We Highly recommend Carla!”
“Basil had a great time staying with Elizabeth and Phillip. The care was top notch, and I was kept up to date through texts and pics. I can always tell when Basil has a good stay experience because she comes home and is chill. Thank you!”
“I felt so comfortable knowing that Megan was caring for my girls while we were on vacation! We even had some cute pics to enjoy showing that they were having a great time.”
“Provided many updates throughout Woodfords stay which was much appreciated. Jared was consistent in his communication. Drop off and pick-up were a breeze. I could tell Woodford enjoyed his stay and the chance to play with the other dogs and Jared was patient with him.”
“Ebony was so great! She was responsive, kind and flexible! She took great care of our dog and he got so much great socialization and exercise. We really appreciated her especially the last minute changes!”
“Haley absolutely saved our life with a VERY last minute booking. She was super responsive, updated with photos, and was super close which made it the easiest experience possible. Cannot rave about her enough!!”
“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.”
“Sharon did an excellent job watching our senior dog! She and her dog Wesley were super friendly and extra accommodating. Sharon sent frequent updates & pics and even bathed him one day when he needed a refresh. Sharon’s yard is perfect for dogs, very safe & fun to explore or sunbathe. Sharon also plays relaxing music for your dogs. Talk about a dog-cation!! You will not be disappointed booking Sharon, she is a highly skilled Dog Sitter and great with humans too!”
“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!”
“Grace took great care of our pups! The dogs loved playing around in her yard. She also took extra care of my dog that had an irritated spot on his nose. Highly recommend!”
“Well wut can I say, besides these two were heaven sent, & we dnt play about heaven or Hershee!👀😂 But no seriously, Hershee (our black lab) had just turned 4 yrs old (Aug 21st) the day b4 we found the app & dropped him off to these beautiful folks, Jeremy & Laura (& their sweet sweet little bundle!).. Being that this was our 1st vacay away & Hershee's very 1st time w/out us in his 4 yrs of life, I think it's fair to say we were all a lil nervous at first (especially leaving him w/almost perfect strangers). Except Jeremy & Laura were no strangers at all, not to Hershee anyway! The way they opened their arms, home, & hearts to him, w/zero hesitation! This in fact, helped to lift our reluctant hearts as it pertained to leaving him ANYwhere (as 1st timers we didn't really kno wut to expect). But these two most def put to rest any apprehension we may have had due to our lack of experience w/any app regarding pup sitting. All in all, they kept us updated of his every like & dislike from the jump, only he didn't have any dislikes!😂 Hershee apparently felt right at home the moment the door was opened & he spotted their little one!🫶🏾 It was all giggles & plenty of kisses from that point!☺️ Laura & Jeremy's home was more than welcoming & inviting, which was great bcuz again, Hershee is known to b a bit anxious when it comes to unfamiliar surroundings/ ppl. However, these good ppl were very familiar to him, bcuz I think he seen just that (the good in them!) Thank u Laura & Jeremy for being everything we needed for Hershee over the weekend, & giving us the peace of mind to just BE & just enjoy ourselves while we were away!🫶🏾”
“Penny seem to settle right in with Elaine and Cal and the regular picture updates we received! Even when I arrived to pick her up, she barely wanted to stop playing and exploring!”
“Maggie loves staying with Heather and Remi! She gets to play and run and have such a fun time. Heather is so friendly and communicative. We will definitely book with Heather again in the future!”
“Ryo was fantastic with our Beagle, Maple. He was incredibly patient and kind and made our dog feel right at home. We would love to work with him again in the future!”
About: I set my own schedule at work, so I am able to be flexible for quick pop-ins or long walks to care for the needs of your dog. I love to run, so if you have a high-energy dog, consider physical and mental exhaustion a check for the day. Currently, my favorite walking paths are around Cherokee Park and Senaca Park! Mornings before 10 am and evenings at 8 are ideal! I usually work between 11-7 Monday-Thursdays, but often have gaps in my schedule. Fridays and Saturdays are very flexible! I take physical exercise and playtime with the utmost seriousness. Mealtimes are consistent and treats are a must! If I am in a dog’s home, they will feel loved and prioritized.

“Mary went above and beyond to care for our cat. Our cat is very skiddish around new people, but Mary took her time to be patient and let Callie warm up to her. We really appreciated her thoroughness and reliability. Followed all instructions to a tee and provided great daily updates. Highly recommend booking Mary!”
“Great care and peace of mind while traveling abroad. My cat was well taken care of, and he looked forward to Elizabeth’s visits, reducing stress for both him and myself. Will definitely be using Elizabeth again.”
“Missy was wonderful! This was my first Rover experience and I was very nervous with my cats needing medication twice daily but Missy was on time and great with communicating. I really appreciated the cute pictures she sent with each visit and I would definitely schedule with her again!”
About: Hello! I’m Caton, and I genuinely love being around animals. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets with someone else, so I always try to create a calm, safe, and loving environment for every dog I care for.

I’ll also keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands!
“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!”
“We’ve used Ashlea for our high energy puppy as well as our 2 cats and she did a great job! Even when the puppy has some excitement pee problems, no issues 😅 she’s very communicative, punctual, and even helped us out for extra house care duties because of an emergency. Completely dependable :)”
“Nick went above and beyond while watching our two pups while we were out of town!! They’ve never been so comfortable with a sitter before. Communication was fabulous and he always took the time to send detailed updates and pictures. I would 100% recommend!”
“Jane was a fantastic pet sitter for our two cats. She stayed at our house, fed, and kept our two lively young cats company. She sent us pictures during the stay so we could see that they were doing well. She made our vacation so much more relaxing knowing our pets were well taken care of. Will definitely use her again in the future.”

“Bayley did a great job taking care of our cats while we were out of town! She followed all the instructions on our guide, sent proof-of-life pictures on every drop-in, and consistently communicated about the timing of her visits. It was such a relief to know our fur babies were in good hands so we could enjoy our trip :)”
“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!”
About: I dog-sat a lot in high school and am ready to do it again! I’d love to have an animal of my own but think this would be a great solution for right now. I’m loving, caring, kind, and ready to watch some beautiful doggies (or kitties!)!! I currently have a kitty named Vader. He is kind and great with other animal. Due to teaching full time, I will be available during the weekends for the most part. If needed during the week, we can talk and negotiate. I have a yard (not fenced) for walks around the block. I’m located near several dog parks to let your dogs run and play fetch. I have a cat that is friendly and up-to-date on all shots.
“Nicole was absolutely outstanding. She checked on, fed, and loved on our two kitties while we were gone for 2 weeks. She took such good care of them! She went above and beyond - took in our packages, took up our trash, and even cleaned up kitty litter that the cats tracked through the house. Her communication was amazing and she sent regular updates and pictures. We felt so comfortable having Nicole at our home while we were gone. We will 1000% have Nicole take care of our animals again!”
“Desiree was approachable, kind hearted, responsive, and accountable. I could tell she wanted to care for my dog to the best of her abilities by the questions she asked. She wanted to not just care for my pet, but be respectful of my home. Highly recommend!”

“Angela and Stephen are good dog sitters and even better people. Bella is always worn out with a smile on her face every time she gets to stay with them. 5/5 would recommend to anyone wanting great care for your beloved pet!”
“We've never used Rover before, but were very impressed with our first experience. Jessica was lovely and we really enjoyed the updates throughout the day. So smooth. We will definitely use her in the future :)”
“Jared and Waverly were great with our dogs, and even managed to get my curmudgeon named skittles to positively interact with a couple older dogs! They were flexible and understanding of my changing schedule, as we were on a road trip and only needed help for a few hours. If I’m ever in Louisville with the doggos again I’d contact them straightaway”
“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!”
About: I have experience with pets and can groom walk and play with them. I am very good with pets I love them. I’m so excited! I am a college student and I am off school right now. I have plenty of time to help out anyone that needs it please I would take them out and also make them comfortable if they are staying overnight. Regular meals and fun walks. Also fun playtime with them
“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!”
“Eliane was so great! Bumi seemed like he had lots of fun and was well cared for. She was great at communicating and letting me know details of Bumi's stay when I picked him up. Would definitely have her watch him again!”
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.
“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.”
“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!”
“Kimba had a great time with Kaitlyn. She took great care of Kimba and sent pictures throughout the day. Kaitlyn 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 Kaitlyn. I’d use her again next time we are in town.”
“I left my 8 week old puppy for daycare with Mariah & Cody. I was a nervous wreck! They kept me informed with pictures and updates and reassured me with appropriate introductions to their other dogs. Both Mariah & Cody have such kind and genuine personalities, I felt confident my puppy would be loved and they were happy to have her.”
“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!”
“Jemaya was the best. She cared for my mini Aussie wonderfully. She was a great communicator/ sent several updates and pictures during 6 hr span. Will contact Jemaya for any future pet needs. Highly recommend her.”
About: I have helped raise a bottle fed kitten and cared for a senior beagle in his last year. I care for and adopt mostly adult dogs, but I haven't met one I don't like! I work from home, so my schedule is flexible to fit in lots of home visits with overnight stay possible! I have my own dog that goes out 3 times a day already, so fitting in pet care is a breeze! I have an apartment with 2 bedrooms where dogs can sleep separate from my own dog. My complex is very dog friendly with all pets on leash, and large areas to sniff and poop as well as a park & track in walking distance.
“Breanna is great! We left our pup for daycare, she played, relaxed, and went on a walk. Breanna was very responsive and provided great updates. We would absolutely leave our pup with her again.”
“Sarah and family greeted Lucy at the door. She happily ran off following the kids for a fun evening! She loves kids! Sarah was easy to work with our uncertain time frame! E McCoy and Lucy”

I also live close to a park that we can go to. I have a friendly German shepherd who likes to play with other dogs. I will treat your pet like they are my own and let them make themselves at home.
“I cant say enough good about Catherine. She is extremely professional and she has a true passion and love for dogs. And it shows. I had a vet appointment set for Willow that I needed to reschedule and Catherine offered to take her! That to me is just awesome. Catherine really is great at what she does and I would not hesitate to use her again.”

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".
“Alexis has been great with our Rosie! She has been on time, and left great feedback on the app to keep us informed! She even came over to do a meet and greet with us and our dog before walking her for the first time to make us all more comfortable.”
About: I am the biggest animal lover and I would agree that they love me just as much! I am a babysitter and I work as a substitute in the GCCS school system. I am a substitute teacher so with that I do not have to work every single day which gives me extra free time for pet care! I offer care for pets in a clients home by following all instructions and respecting my clients space, boundaries and pets. I understand how much fur babies mean!
About: Experience with dogs of all ages, sizes and temperaments. Have owned as many as 5 at one time, as well as fostering dogs, cats and kittens, including a special needs beagle with degenerative myelopathy (he had a cool wheelchair :) . I love them all and will care for them like they are my own. I will scratch and play and provide belly rubs on command. If I sit for your dog in my home, my cat, Frankie, will just roll her eyes and move on :) I am happy to work with the schedule you prefer for your furry kids, even if it's not the same as mine. Please contact me with questions, I am happy to chat first so we are both comfortable. While I no longer work from home, I still have plenty of time to care for dogs in my home, as I have done for my own dogs 😊 I have a fenced yard and a special “dog room” with toys a few different sized crates for when they need some space from my cat 😊.

About: I’ve had animals all my life! From energetic puppies to senior pets needing extra TLC. I've been pet sitting since I could drive, and caring for animals has always been second nature to me.

About: I have traveled extensively through India and Central America and now that I am back home full time, I want to try to do all the things that I love to do, but I never had enough time to do. One of those things is taking care of my favorite animals. I love dogs and that is something that I want to experience as much as I can. For that, I just finished fencing my large backyard so I can accommodate my small or big friends. I am very active and playful....so I am excited and looking forward to having a fun time with my new friends. Hopefully you will find my house nice, welcoming, peacefully and large enough for your dog. I work from home, so your pet will have my full attention. I am active and energetic, so if needed your pet will have a good amount of activities I have a large fenced backyard and I can crate your pet if needed. Walks in the neighborhood or local park is always part of my day

“Beth was so patient and kind, I have never left my dog with a non-family member and she's a little codependent but Beth (and Tupac/Kiddo!) were so sweet and made her feel at home. She sent updates over the weekend and was amazing with our pickup/drop off schedule and my anxiety. Thanks so much!”
“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!”
“Basil had a great time staying with Elizabeth and Phillip. The care was top notch, and I was kept up to date through texts and pics. I can always tell when Basil has a good stay experience because she comes home and is chill. Thank you!”
“I felt so comfortable knowing that Megan was caring for my girls while we were on vacation! We even had some cute pics to enjoy showing that they were having a great time.”
“Provided many updates throughout Woodfords stay which was much appreciated. Jared was consistent in his communication. Drop off and pick-up were a breeze. I could tell Woodford enjoyed his stay and the chance to play with the other dogs and Jared was patient with him.”
“Ebony was so great! She was responsive, kind and flexible! She took great care of our dog and he got so much great socialization and exercise. We really appreciated her especially the last minute changes!”
“Haley absolutely saved our life with a VERY last minute booking. She was super responsive, updated with photos, and was super close which made it the easiest experience possible. Cannot rave about her enough!!”
“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.”
“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!”
“Grace took great care of our pups! The dogs loved playing around in her yard. She also took extra care of my dog that had an irritated spot on his nose. Highly recommend!”
“Well wut can I say, besides these two were heaven sent, & we dnt play about heaven or Hershee!👀😂 But no seriously, Hershee (our black lab) had just turned 4 yrs old (Aug 21st) the day b4 we found the app & dropped him off to these beautiful folks, Jeremy & Laura (& their sweet sweet little bundle!).. Being that this was our 1st vacay away & Hershee's very 1st time w/out us in his 4 yrs of life, I think it's fair to say we were all a lil nervous at first (especially leaving him w/almost perfect strangers). Except Jeremy & Laura were no strangers at all, not to Hershee anyway! The way they opened their arms, home, & hearts to him, w/zero hesitation! This in fact, helped to lift our reluctant hearts as it pertained to leaving him ANYwhere (as 1st timers we didn't really kno wut to expect). But these two most def put to rest any apprehension we may have had due to our lack of experience w/any app regarding pup sitting. All in all, they kept us updated of his every like & dislike from the jump, only he didn't have any dislikes!😂 Hershee apparently felt right at home the moment the door was opened & he spotted their little one!🫶🏾 It was all giggles & plenty of kisses from that point!☺️ Laura & Jeremy's home was more than welcoming & inviting, which was great bcuz again, Hershee is known to b a bit anxious when it comes to unfamiliar surroundings/ ppl. However, these good ppl were very familiar to him, bcuz I think he seen just that (the good in them!) Thank u Laura & Jeremy for being everything we needed for Hershee over the weekend, & giving us the peace of mind to just BE & just enjoy ourselves while we were away!🫶🏾”
“Penny seem to settle right in with Elaine and Cal and the regular picture updates we received! Even when I arrived to pick her up, she barely wanted to stop playing and exploring!”
“Ryo was fantastic with our Beagle, Maple. He was incredibly patient and kind and made our dog feel right at home. We would love to work with him again in the future!”
“we were gone for three days to a family reunion. My lab Zion had never stayed with anyone other than my niece. I was really worried about using Rover, however, Mariah was absolutely excellent! She took great care of Zion and gave me regular updates! I will use Rover again!!”
“Patrick was great! Prompt communication and plenty of picture updates on Guthrie, who looked to be having the time of his life. I swear Guthrie was positively beaming when I picked him up! The afterglow remains several days after.”
“Incredible! Jen was so great with our little guy and we could tell he had a great time! She provided us with a lot of peace of mind and worked with us when we ended our trip early for the winter storm. Thanks Jen!”
“Kelsey did an excellent job! I highly recommend her. I knew my sweet baby was being well taken care of. Kelsey sent me a ton of sweet photos which helped to keep me at ease!”
“My Wilson was wonderfully taken care of by Sarah and her family, and their two pups were great with him, as was Butcher the pig. I will ask Sarah if she’ll be able to board Wilson again next time I have to go out of town.”
