“Sarah was great! Very friendly and personable, and only minutes from our house! She sent us pictures to let us know our pup was doing good. We will definitely use her in the future!”

“Cristaylee was great with accepting Mamacita last minute and updated me everyday! She was great to my dog and had a blast staying with Cristaylee. I would recommend her to anyone who wants a trusting and caring person to take care of your fur baby. Thank you again!!!! Will definitely use her in the future.”

“My dog loved this sitter! I am so happy to have found a sitter who takes such good care of my baby and keeps be updated on his finicky eating and his ability to get along with other pets. She is the greatest!!!”

“Easy to get along. Great communication. Stella took right to them. Michael and Elizabeth treated her like one of their own pets. Thanks for making my first Rover experience one to be modeled after.”

“We were a bit reluctant to leave our 8 year old who can be unfriendly towards other dogs, along with our big foster puppy who we have only had a month. Scott took both dogs right away and had them all playing together within a few hours. He has a nice set up whether your dog needs lots of room to run around or a kennel to keep them safe. I would recommend him as a pet sitter.”

“Stephanie was great to work with! I really appreciated being able to bring Rosey to meet her before her stay. Stephanie sent pictures and communication about Rosey while she was in her care. Her fenced in back yard is a plus! We will not hesitate to use her again. Mary Jo R.”

“I CANNOT say enough good things about both Rick and his fiancé Annemarie! They were God-sent ANGELS for our wedding weekend! We were out of town - all of us were - and really needed someone who could keep Millie for us. Even though they stayed a half hour away, they were above-and-beyond accommodating, staying flexible with our schedule as things changed on our end. They came and picked her up from us, brought her back for rehearsal the same day so my nephew could practice walking her down the aisle, took her back home. They sent me pictures of her and their dog Buckley all throughout the weekend and she looked like she was having fun, getting good sleep and was comfortable. When Annemarie brought Millie to my wedding, she came dressed up to blend in with the other guests and I never heard Millie bark the whole time. She stayed around in the hot heat for pictures so Millie could be in a few pictures with us before taking her back to their home. Finally, they kept her through an extra day for us so we could have a little breather time before we had to pack everything up at our hotel room and head back home. We could not have made it through our wedding weekend without Annemarie and Rick's help. All of their story-sharing about what Millie was up to with Buckley all weekend was so nice to see intermittently as we were busy buzzing about doing our wedding activities. We are so GRATEFUL for everything they did and it's clear Millie was well taken care of and comfortable because she was so calm and relaxed when Rick returned her to us! Truly extra sweet! Thanks again for everything!”

“Lacy is great! She was tuned in to Bear’s needs and made accommodations to help him feel comfortable. I highly recommend recommend her to anyone who needs to board their pup in the E-town area!”

“Renee did a great job taking care of our two dogs while we were away. She sent regular updates and pictures of them playing and having fun. I think one of our dogs is actually disappointed that we came back because he was having so much fun playing with the other dogs at Renee's house.”

“Kimberly was great! She treated our dog like her own. She updated us and took her at very short notice. We were nervous about leaving our dog but she made us comfortable and would do it all over again.”

About: I have been taking care of pets for members in my church for years. I have also worked at a pet store that took care of and sold animals to their furever homes. I work full time and take care of my brother's dog as I go home from work and he is still working. I also spend time with people in my church that has pets that I love on a good portion of time I am there. I travel out of my way to take care of and love on pets. Dogs are my love language and cats are my spirit animal.
“Cassie was great! She was very flexible and caring. It is obvious that she adores animals. Our Cavalier has a great time. She had such a great time she didn’t seem all that excited to see me when normally she goes crazy when she greets me. Cassie shared a lot of pictures of our girl making friends with her family and various pets. I would definitely use her again if we come back to Bardstown again!”

“Rylee is amazing. Our plans with our original dog sitter fell through last minute for our week long vacation. She was a life saver. Ladybird had a healing broken nail. She there were a ton of instructions and Rylee handled it like a champ and made us feel very comfortable. Your dog will be well loved and cared for in her home. She will definitely become our go-to for any future trips.”

“So thankful Francesca was able to accommodate us on short notice! Our puppy looked like he had a great time. She sent lots of pictures and eased our minds. ❤️❤️❤️”
About: Animals have a special part in my life. I have always loved and taken care of animals since I was little. I am a very flexible person and I will always change my schedule to meet yours. I also have 3 dogs and a cat in my house. I am a college student and stay at home of 3 kids. I’m a stay at home mom so I am always home unless I have appointments to go to. My kids love animals, and will try to be as helpful as possible. I do not have a fenced in yard but I can take your pets out on a leash if needed. I can crate your dog or leave them out, whatever you prefer.

“Haley provided great care for my 4 cats. I had a last minute trip and she was able to accommodate the days I would be out of town. I enjoyed the daily updates and pictures of my fur babies. If you are looking for a compassionate and responsible pet sitter I would highly recommend Haley.”

“Christa was wonderful with her visit! She kept in touch so I knew exactly what was going on with my baby and sent me pictures! I had given her a call after her visit to get her opinion on a few things and she was great! She is very knowledgeable and kind! She is even going to start helping me train my Gunnar man! I would highly recommend her to anyone!”

About: I’ve had pets my entire life, so I love to help take care of them and love on them! I’ve also looked after plenty of animals for family and friends when they’re out of town, with one family friend having me come back to dog sit for them for the last three years! Right now, I’m home from college for the summer, and don’t have a job, so my schedule is pretty free unless I have an appointment or other things going on on a certain day! I don’t offer boarding for pets in my own home unfortunately, but for my clients, I will make sure all their needs are met and more, playing with them and making sure they’re doing great before I leave for the day.

“Kaitlin did an awesome job with our 2 dogs. She went above and beyond when one of our dogs made a mess and cleaned up. Will definitely use again if the we need any more help Thanks Kat”

“Miranda is wonderful! She was very responsive to my messages, sent tons of adorable pictures of my cats, and went above and beyond my expectations by bringing cute toys for the kitties to play with and vacuuming the area around the litter box. I highly recommend booking her to care for your pets.”

“AMAZING! Will totally use Ashley again. She is the sweetest and would highly recommend. She gave updates, cute pictures and I had a very relaxing vacation and was able to fully trust her with my fur baby! Thanks Ashley!!!”


About: What sets me apart as a sitter is the level of attention, adaptability, and genuine care I bring to every pet I look after. I don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach—each animal has its own personality, routine, and needs, and I make it a priority to learn and respect those from day one. I have experience working with both high-energy puppies and older, more sensitive senior pets. With puppies, I focus on reinforcing basic training like housebreaking, crate comfort, leash manners, and positive behavior using consistent, reward-based methods. I’m patient and understand that young dogs need structure, repetition, and encouragement to thrive. For senior pets, I provide a calm, attentive environment and am comfortable handling special care routines, including administering medications, monitoring mobility, and adjusting activity levels to keep them comfortable. I pay close attention to subtle changes in behavior or health and communicate proactively with owners. Beyond that, I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and detail-oriented. I keep pet parents updated with regular messages and photos, and I always aim to make both the pet and the owner feel completely at ease. My goal is not just to “watch” your pet, but to make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away.
About: I have experience watching all kinds of animals. I currently have 3 dogs and 1 cat of my own so I am always around animals. I am only doing pet care at the moment, so my day is dedicated to it. I have full availability to take care of your special pets :) I am super respectful to your home and your pet(s). I am very attentive to the pet I am taking care of. I always make sure to have your baby in eyesight.

About: My animal experience goes way back to childhood. At the age of 7 I started in 4h, learning about animal husbandry. By the age of 13 I was volunteering at the local riding stables. By high school, I was working at the local animal shelter, volunteering with local rescues and advancing my education in dog training, with hopes of getting into service dogs. At age 19 I started working at a vet clinic This just advanced my love of animals and their care even more! Fast forward to today, and I own my own in home grooming salon ❤️ I have continued to volunteer with the local rescues and shelter every chance I get. 2 years ago I was blessed with the opportunity to become a puppy raiser for a veteran service dog foundation. That was the very best experience i could of asked for! My knowledge of dogs extends into training, grooming and care. I'm knowledgeable with cats and other small animals as well! Coming from a farm and vet background, I have experience with just about every animal including exotics. My personal dogs are all very well socialized with other animals of all kinds. They all have extensive training and are completely safe with others. They know just how to make our new guest feel right at home! All my boarder dogs are treated as family, allowed on beds and furniture and cage free unless otherwise requested. Bath or grooming add ons are always available! All baths/ grooms come complete with a cute Pic! Please feel free to reach out with any questions ❤️ I work from home in my at home grooming salon, so your pet will never be alone. Should I need to leave the house for small errands, there is still someone left at home, or the animal will have a safe enclosed room to themselves. My Backyard is attached to the house and fully enclosed with a large wooden privacy fence. Pets are never left outside unattended and are kept in my view at all times.
“My high energy puppy came home very tired which made for a relaxing Friday evening at home. Rhiannon was very considerate given Suki is not fully potty trained. Overall happy with the experience.”

About: I've had a fur baby in my arms since I was a child. Not only did I raise my own, but I've kept my friends, my co-workers and my son's dogs while they were out of town, for a day, a week and sometimes longer. I cared for my son's senior boy while he worked, and then he brought the newest baby to me everyday she when she was a puppy, so she wasn't home alone and I could potty train her with love. I raised our German shepherd with my sons from the time she and my youngest were both just 8 weeks old. When Libby was almost 18 yo we had to have our vet assist her in crossing the rainbow bridge. From there I got my first tiny dog, a little boy named Dexter, Chihuahua 6.6 lbs, and then shortly after I got Danika, Chihuahua 5.5 lbs. They went everywhere with me, vacations, nail salon, shopping. They had a purse they loved to jump right in and 2 booster seats so they were secured safely in my car. I lost Dexter to heart disease at 14 yo and poor little Danika was lost without him. I adopted Lucylle, Chihuahua 6 lbs, she was 2 yo. She was left at the vet by her previous family, that never came back to get her. She was very aggressive towards everyone in the beginning and it took me 3 months of patience and love to bring her out of it. By that time her and Danika were best friends, and loving companions, of course they went everywhere with me. We lost Danika just few months ago, she was 16 yo. That's when I decided to start my journey with Rover, to bring some added joy into mine and Lucylle's life and give other fur babies a safe and loving place to visit when family were away. I retired 04-2024, Lucylle and I have plenty of time on our hands. I bought a patio home, with a nice fenced back yard, where I sit in the morning or anytime during the day/evening and watch Lucylle go out and do her business or just play. We take walks around the neighborhood or down at the walking trail. My neighbors are also dog lovers, they just love little Lucylle. I have a fenced back yard for them to play in with my girl, and I keep a watchful eye on them when they are outside. I can crate your baby if needed, as I do my own sometimes. I have little beds and/or a blanket for them to snuggle when they are napping. Being retired gives me plenty of time for your fur baby (and mine). Caring, playing and loving them as if they were my own.
About: I am an animal lover and have voluntarily trained animals while working in the ARMY. I establish a " sense of security" for the animals with training and intuition , that has developed over my life experiences handling animals. I enjoy seeing the happiness in my own pets; for instance, after a hike. I will treat your pets with compassion and as if they are a ' part ' of my family , while they are in my care. I love dogs and cats and am looking forward to walking, training and allowing my own dog, Precious , to have socialization with other animals. I trained Precious to co habitat with cats. She is well behaved around all types of others , people and animals.
About: I’ve been taking care of animals all my life. I have vet tech experience, and dog training experience. Animals are a huge passion of mine.

“Rylee took such great care of my dog Knox! He has separation anxiety, but he adjusted quickly in her calm and welcoming home. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in good hands.

I’ll definitely be booking with Rylee again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter on Rover!”

About: I’m an animal lover, vegan, and environmentalist with a passion for compassion! I can hardly remember a time when I have NOT had a pet. I have dog and cat sat for a house with 7 cats and dogs multiple times, so I’ve become accustomed to the temperament of pets. Nothing brings me joy like having a furry friend to accompany me on a walk around town. I am an attentive pedestrian and I know the rules of the road as a driver as well as on the sidewalk. I value nature and recognise the need to help dogs and cats by cleaning up after them in public. Overall, I’m a responsible pet-owner, and I understand the busy schedules of human-animals, and how important it is to ensure that our non-human friends get the attention and outdoor time that they deserve and love! I’m currently available for walks most mornings and pet setting any day of the week. I can accommodate early morning walks and any feeding schedules. I understand the need for pets to have frequent trips outside, and some time cuddling on the couch as well. I’m able to handle dogs of various sizes and temperments.

“Sarah was great! Very friendly and personable, and only minutes from our house! She sent us pictures to let us know our pup was doing good. We will definitely use her in the future!”

“Cristaylee was great with accepting Mamacita last minute and updated me everyday! She was great to my dog and had a blast staying with Cristaylee. I would recommend her to anyone who wants a trusting and caring person to take care of your fur baby. Thank you again!!!! Will definitely use her in the future.”

“My dog loved this sitter! I am so happy to have found a sitter who takes such good care of my baby and keeps be updated on his finicky eating and his ability to get along with other pets. She is the greatest!!!”

“Easy to get along. Great communication. Stella took right to them. Michael and Elizabeth treated her like one of their own pets. Thanks for making my first Rover experience one to be modeled after.”

“We were a bit reluctant to leave our 8 year old who can be unfriendly towards other dogs, along with our big foster puppy who we have only had a month. Scott took both dogs right away and had them all playing together within a few hours. He has a nice set up whether your dog needs lots of room to run around or a kennel to keep them safe. I would recommend him as a pet sitter.”

“I CANNOT say enough good things about both Rick and his fiancé Annemarie! They were God-sent ANGELS for our wedding weekend! We were out of town - all of us were - and really needed someone who could keep Millie for us. Even though they stayed a half hour away, they were above-and-beyond accommodating, staying flexible with our schedule as things changed on our end. They came and picked her up from us, brought her back for rehearsal the same day so my nephew could practice walking her down the aisle, took her back home. They sent me pictures of her and their dog Buckley all throughout the weekend and she looked like she was having fun, getting good sleep and was comfortable. When Annemarie brought Millie to my wedding, she came dressed up to blend in with the other guests and I never heard Millie bark the whole time. She stayed around in the hot heat for pictures so Millie could be in a few pictures with us before taking her back to their home. Finally, they kept her through an extra day for us so we could have a little breather time before we had to pack everything up at our hotel room and head back home. We could not have made it through our wedding weekend without Annemarie and Rick's help. All of their story-sharing about what Millie was up to with Buckley all weekend was so nice to see intermittently as we were busy buzzing about doing our wedding activities. We are so GRATEFUL for everything they did and it's clear Millie was well taken care of and comfortable because she was so calm and relaxed when Rick returned her to us! Truly extra sweet! Thanks again for everything!”

“Lacy is great! She was tuned in to Bear’s needs and made accommodations to help him feel comfortable. I highly recommend recommend her to anyone who needs to board their pup in the E-town area!”

“Renee did a great job taking care of our two dogs while we were away. She sent regular updates and pictures of them playing and having fun. I think one of our dogs is actually disappointed that we came back because he was having so much fun playing with the other dogs at Renee's house.”

“Kimberly was great! She treated our dog like her own. She updated us and took her at very short notice. We were nervous about leaving our dog but she made us comfortable and would do it all over again.”

“Cassie was great! She was very flexible and caring. It is obvious that she adores animals. Our Cavalier has a great time. She had such a great time she didn’t seem all that excited to see me when normally she goes crazy when she greets me. Cassie shared a lot of pictures of our girl making friends with her family and various pets. I would definitely use her again if we come back to Bardstown again!”

“Rylee is amazing. Our plans with our original dog sitter fell through last minute for our week long vacation. She was a life saver. Ladybird had a healing broken nail. She there were a ton of instructions and Rylee handled it like a champ and made us feel very comfortable. Your dog will be well loved and cared for in her home. She will definitely become our go-to for any future trips.”

“So thankful Francesca was able to accommodate us on short notice! Our puppy looked like he had a great time. She sent lots of pictures and eased our minds. ❤️❤️❤️”
About: Animals have a special part in my life. I have always loved and taken care of animals since I was little. I am a very flexible person and I will always change my schedule to meet yours. I also have 3 dogs and a cat in my house. I am a college student and stay at home of 3 kids. I’m a stay at home mom so I am always home unless I have appointments to go to. My kids love animals, and will try to be as helpful as possible. I do not have a fenced in yard but I can take your pets out on a leash if needed. I can crate your dog or leave them out, whatever you prefer.
“Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, kept both of our dogs! They were out all weekend to the lakes! Kept me updated with pics and videos and anytime I checked in on them she made sure to update me!! We will definitely be using her!”

“Dawn did an amazing job taking care of my fur baby. We were gone for a week and she made sure to update me on how my baby was doing through texts and photos. She even cuddled her and bought treats when she wasn’t eating the ones I brought. She and her husband were amazing caregivers for my sweet fur baby. I never worried once about whether my baby was safe.”
