“Our two dogs love Julie and her family! We have booked with them 3 times and each time we pick up happy and well loved on pups! This past booking my smaller dog immediately try to climb up Julie’s legs to say hello! They are our first choice every time and we haven’t booked with anyone else since finding Julie!”
“We were in the need for a new dog sitter after our old one retired, and we found one. Scott and Melissa are fantastic. Our dog had a great time and was clearly well cared for. They have a backyard creek that our dog loved playing in. We received plenty of pictures and updates. Highly recommended, your dog will love it.”
“Tina and her husband are great! I never had to worry about Tink while I was on vacation. She would send me pictures and updates on how he was doing. I highly recommend.”
“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!”
“I have used Rover all over the country due to my work demand and she is absolutely the best one I have used for a long stay. She was very communicative throughout my pup’s stay. We didn’t have a meet and greet ahead of time so she slowly introduced each of her dogs to mine one by one, in which I appreciated, on the day of drop off. She cares about her animals and is in tune to all of their needs and personalities. She is 40 min out of my way and I will definitely drive out to her again!”
“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.”
“Michael and Elizabeth was awesome. Monte adjusted well and seemed to have fun. I will recommend the and will use them the next time I need a sitter for Monte. Thank you both for an amazing job”
“Heather was amazing and I will definitely use her again. She was accommodating to my last minute request for boarding. She was also responsive when I reached out and had a very caring spirit.”
“Expressed my concerns about my a previous Rover Sitter loosing my dog, and Heather was so kind, gracious and accommodating. She sent me photos and videos and updates everyday!”
“We’ve used Julie twice now and she is nothing short of amazing. Our little girl loves it there and I know she is well taken care of. Julie is super easy to communicate with and very responsive! If you are looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter, book her now!”
“Lacy was awesome with me puppy she kept me informed the entire time on how my pup was doing which made me feel very at ease since thus was my first time using Rover my pup had a good time I highly recommend Thank you Lacy ?”
“We met a few pet sitters and after meeting Rylee we instantly felt the connection she would be the best with our 2 dogs. We felt comfortable the entire time with constant updates, pictures, and the love she gave our dogs it’s like we never left them. Her and her daughter truly cared for them and we couldn’t be more thankful to have found Rylee. I would highly recommend her to anyone!!”
“Lynne made us very comfortable right from the start. She made sure to keep in contact, even before we had a meet and greet, and when we met her she made us and our baby girl, Izzy, feel completely at ease. When we were gone on our vacation for 12 day's, Lynne sent pictures and updates letting us know how things were going. She completely spoiled our girl and made her feel loved. We would go back to Lynne in a heartbeat!”
“With last minute notice, Kimberly was able to assist and watch Holly for the week. I do not think I have had a better dog sitter for boarding in the almost 12 years I have had Holly. You can tell Holly was happy to be with Kimberly! Thank you so much for the love and care you provided for Holly and the communication, knowledge, and professionalism with us. You are amazing, Kimberly!”
“Wow! That was a GREAT experience booking our dog Samson with Crystal---she went above and beyond! She sent us multiple pictures and a video, which warmed our hearts.💕 She was so friendly when we dropped him off and picked him up, and we could tell he was very comfortable there by how he acted then and how he was in the video. And the kicker was, he slept in bed with her! You know she is a dog person by that! Thanks Crystal, we will book with you next time!!!”

“Fantastic, had to book last minute and he saved us from cancelling our trip. Also cleaned up my dogs mess when she puked instead of leaving it like most do. Very much appreciated.”

She also is very trustworthy. We will use her again & again. You can’t go wrong with getting her to take care of your babies. ♥️”
“10/10 would recommend. She is very easy to communicate with and you can tell she cares about your animals. This is the 2nd time we have booked her and will 100% continue to book her.”
“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.”
About: My family has had dogs my entire life. Several years ago a neighbor of ours fell ill and needed surgery. I walked her dog every day for three months to use the bathroom and have play time outdoors until she healed. When she went on vacations, I would dog sit for two weeks at a time. I enjoyed caring for the home and her dog so much that I continued with these services for several other people. Everything from playing with their dogs, walking them, taking them out for potty breaks, feeding them, and taking care of their home. I've come to love them and still have great relationships with the families. To those reading, it would be my pleasure to care for your animals as well! I am currently working as a self-employed freelancer and I have plenty of time to take care of your pets and your home! I am flexible with scheduling and will accommodate your needs whenever possible. I provide the services my client's need, adapting to each pet and housing situation. Of course I will be covering basic needs like water, food and potty breaks, but I will also go above and beyond giving lots of love and attention to your pet.
“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: I’ve been taking care of cats for several years, including my own. I love discovering their uniqueness and attitudes. People have relied on me to feed, water and play with their cats. I would love to help with yours as well!
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 13 years old and have always had a deep love for animals. Over the years, I’ve helped rescue and care for many pups, giving them a safe, loving, and happy environment. Since high school, I’ve also provided trusted house sitting and pet care for families in my neighborhood, gaining experience with dogs of different sizes, breeds, personalities, and routines. I currently have two large dogs of my own, so I’m very comfortable handling bigger breeds, high-energy pups, feeding schedules, long walks, playtime, and maintaining consistent routines. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away, and I always treat every dog like family. I’m dependable, attentive, patient, and highly communicative, and I make it a priority to keep owners updated with messages and photos for peace of mind. Whether it’s dog walking, overnight house sitting, administering basic care, or providing companionship and attention, I’m committed to making sure your pets feel loved, exercised, and stress-free in your absence. I am currently home from college for the summer and have plenty of free time during my day to take care of your pups! I am available to walk your doggo anytime during the day and want to make this process stress-free. If there is a time that your pup does better walking, I want to make that possible for you. For dog walking and pet sitting, I focus on creating a safe, fun, and comfortable experience for every pet. During walks, I make sure dogs get the exercise, attention, and stimulation they need while also prioritizing safety and positive behavior. I’m comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and energy levels, including larger breeds, since I have two large dogs of my own. For pet sitting, I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I make sure pets feel comfortable, loved, and relaxed while their owners are away by giving them plenty of companionship and attention. I’m dependable, patient, and highly attentive to each dog’s individual needs and personality. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident knowing their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for.
“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”
“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.”

“Look no further, Renee is a GEM! My husband and I were RVing in Kentucky and needed a dog sitter at the last minute. Renee not only took Beans in last minute but truly is amazing with Dogs! Beans had so much fun she was so sad to leave! Thank you so much Renee! If we are ever back in Kentucky we will be reaching out!”
About: My first dog was a Golden Retriever, and I was hooked! I wanted a career working with dogs and was a dog groomer at a boarding facility for 20 years, working with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personality types. Several of my grooming clients also boarded in my home. Personally, I’ve raised puppies and adopted seniors, so have experience with training and administering medications. I’ve started a second career and now work from home. My office has three dog beds, and my little dog is waiting for a friend to come over! My yard is small, but fenced, and I can take the furry friends out as often as they need to go. If your dog prefers a walk-about, I can accommodate that as well. Please note, due to my insurance I cannot accept Staffordshire terriers, pitbulls, or bully mixes of any kind. In addition, although the Rover weight class is 16-40 pounds, I only accept dogs that are 25 pounds or less. I want your dog to feel at home in my home! I’m happy to send you pictures during the day, or FaceTime you. I can administer meds, and will adhere to their own feeding/walking schedule. Because I work from home, your dog will have constant companionship. I have a ten pound Boston Terrier who loves playing with other dogs, but I’m in a three bedroom house, so there’s plenty of space if anyone needs time apart. My dog stays in my office with me when I’m working, and your dog can too! If your fur baby does not need constant supervision they would be free to roam around the house. I also have two crates if needed. My fenced yard is great for potty breaks, and I can also do leash walks, either with my dog or only yours if preferred.
“Julie provided outstanding daycare for our golden retriever, Beau. We were visiting the area and needed a place for him to stay while we explored a distillery that didn't allow dogs. Julie replied to my message quickly and we worked out a day schedule. She provided us with photos of Beau while we were gone and our pickup was smooth. Beau was very happy and relaxed. I highly recommend Julie for dog daycare.”
“We were in town on vacation to visit distilleries. Cassie set up a meet n greet the Sunday before our visit and did a wonderful job showing us around. Day of was easy and Charlie had a great visit. Totally recommend to everyone”
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.
“Cristaylee was amazing with our puppy I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER for anyone looking for a sitter. She stays in contact with you all day with pictures and videos etc. If I need a sitter in the future will most definitely make her watch our puppy again!”
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.
About: I have a lot of experience caring for animals! We have had animals my entire life, and I currently now have 5 of my own. Anyone who knows me knows I am an animal lover and your dogs will feel at home here. I do have children ages 6 and 3 and one cat. I currently only work 2 days a week and have 2 kids who love to go on walks! So I am home most of the day and I am also able to walk any time of day! In my home I have a privacy fenced in backyard for your dogs to play in! I also have a crate that they can go in if needed!
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. Sometimes I like them more than people 😉 I have a completely open schedule. I do work for myself so I can always work around yours and my schedule to give your furry family members the care and attention they deserve. I know how to read the body language of animals. I know how to give medication. I can do anything for your pet that you normally do.
“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. She sent regular updates with photos and videos, which I really appreciated. Knox looked relaxed and happy, he clearly felt comfortable with her. I’ll definitely be booking with Rylee again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter on Rover!”

I’ve dog sat for family members and have always had a dog with me. i currently make my own work schedule doing deliveries like doordash so i always have time to stop and take care of your furry friends. Id like to come to my clients home being that i have a dog that doesn’t do well with new dogs in his home. But im fine with walking them or letting them out if you have a fenced yard. I can feed them and do just about anything else they might need.
About: I’ve lived around dogs and other animals my whole life. I’ve owed many different breeds of dogs. I feel like often my focus is dogs but I love all animals, cats, rabbits you name it. This is extremely Exciting for me because I love animals, I’m that person who is always wanting to take in that wondering stray. Simply I love interacting with dogs like I’ve been accustomed to all my life. My family bred cocker spaniels when I was a child so that meant cleaning crates, bathing, basic grooming (cutting hair, brushing, trimming nails) I know some training like crate training house training, basic commands such as sit, stay, lay down, come when called, and wait for food. I can work with all breeds and know quite a bit about all dog breeds and backgrounds. I’m currently self-employed and have plenty of time on my hands. My mornings make up most of my free time, so mornings work best for me. Currently I have two dogs of my own that run on a time based schedule that includes routine feeding, bathroom break, play, quiet time, and one daily chewy treat. Boarding, Walking or even just playing don’t hesitate to reach out, I’m here for all of your pets needs! I am a stay home mom, I have an online pet store that I manage, so I have plenty of free time on my hands. Pets are taken care of very well here. They are watched very intently. We have monitors and cameras in and outside of our home. Pet safety is my number 1 priority when you book with me.
“Thank you Megan, my puppies were very happy with their stay. They Loved that the whole family made their days that they spent in your home a very caring and well loved 3 days. ThNk you again for everything! We would totally recommend you! Thanks again, Beverly”
“Bella spent the afternoon with Taylor and it couldn't have gone better. Taylor is very warm and welcoming and immediately makes you (and your dog) feel right at home. Bella had a wonderful time playing with her friends in this pleasant environment and I felt good leaving her with someone so caring and competent. I would highly recommend her to everyone looking for a sitter for their pet. Also loved the pics.”
“Definitely 5 stars! If I could choose 10 stars, I'd choose 20. Couldn't ask for a better place for your puppers to go! Stephanie and her family took such good care of my Russell. He never eats when I'm gone and he ate for Steph and then didn't want to leave 😃 Steph, thanks again for everything! You guys are the best!”

We look forward to the opportunity of loving on your family (pets). Your pet will be raving to come back and play again and again.
“Michael and Elizabeth took amazing care of my baby girl, Freya! They were kind, attentive, and kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind. Freya came home happy and well cared for.”
“Our dog Scout loves when he gets to hang out with Sarah! It's so convenient for him to have a play date with her when I work all day, and I love that he doesn't have to be crated the whole time I'm gone. He gets to go to the dog park, go for rides, and even sometimes for a pup cup! He always takes a long nap after we get him home, he's thoroughly tuckered out!”

About: Dogs have been apart of my life since I was a small child--we had a couple different pups while I was growing up. As I got older, friends, coworkers, and family members began to ask me if I could dog-sit for them. Even weeks at a time! I quickly began to gain more experience, a deeper level of responsibility, and a greater depth of love for all doggos. I currently work part time night shift! I only work 2 days a week, but this is from 7pm-7am. All other days I have full availability with your furry crew! I would treat your baby the same way you do! I don't mind helping potty train, crating, or other needed processes for a healthy and happy dog. I will adhere to your schedule and time frame for feedings, walks, potty breaks, etc.

I would love to become a trainer one day, and I would love to start small by taking care of dogs. I care for my dogs the best I possibly can. They are extremely well cared for.

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. Treats are a must if you approve and provide treats you like to give pups. I prioritize keeping dogs on leash when out of the house to make sure they stick by me.

“Our two dogs love Julie and her family! We have booked with them 3 times and each time we pick up happy and well loved on pups! This past booking my smaller dog immediately try to climb up Julie’s legs to say hello! They are our first choice every time and we haven’t booked with anyone else since finding Julie!”
“We were in the need for a new dog sitter after our old one retired, and we found one. Scott and Melissa are fantastic. Our dog had a great time and was clearly well cared for. They have a backyard creek that our dog loved playing in. We received plenty of pictures and updates. Highly recommended, your dog will love it.”
“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!”
“I have used Rover all over the country due to my work demand and she is absolutely the best one I have used for a long stay. She was very communicative throughout my pup’s stay. We didn’t have a meet and greet ahead of time so she slowly introduced each of her dogs to mine one by one, in which I appreciated, on the day of drop off. She cares about her animals and is in tune to all of their needs and personalities. She is 40 min out of my way and I will definitely drive out to her again!”
“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.”
“Michael and Elizabeth was awesome. Monte adjusted well and seemed to have fun. I will recommend the and will use them the next time I need a sitter for Monte. Thank you both for an amazing job”

“We met a few pet sitters and after meeting Rylee we instantly felt the connection she would be the best with our 2 dogs. We felt comfortable the entire time with constant updates, pictures, and the love she gave our dogs it’s like we never left them. Her and her daughter truly cared for them and we couldn’t be more thankful to have found Rylee. I would highly recommend her to anyone!!”
“With last minute notice, Kimberly was able to assist and watch Holly for the week. I do not think I have had a better dog sitter for boarding in the almost 12 years I have had Holly. You can tell Holly was happy to be with Kimberly! Thank you so much for the love and care you provided for Holly and the communication, knowledge, and professionalism with us. You are amazing, Kimberly!”
“Melody was very good with communication and quick replies. She sends multiple pics daily & even sends the pups home with goodie bags when it’s time to go home. I am already about to book Melody for my next dogcation!”
“Always a great trip when we leave Scout with Sarah. We never worry that he is well taken care of! We even get pictures of how well he is doing! Thank you so much Sarah! Great job!”
“She did an amazing job and kept in contact with me throughout the weekend, Sent plenty of photos and even taught him a new trick. Will definitely be asking her to watch him again.”
“I had plenty of opportunities to interview sitters on Rover about taking care of my dog Donner for the time I spent (over a month) in Sheperdsville, KY. Chelsea and Chris stood out among the rest. When I picked up Donner on weekends, she always had a smile on her face. Moreover, the pets in the household (Winston and Nova) were friendly and loved to play. They are great people with a home and backyard fence well designed for taking care of canine visitors.”
“This was an amazing first experience! Rachel and Frank were excellent with Tango, and from the many pictures we received Tango was as comfortable as if he were at home. Thank you for taking such great care of our big puppy!”
