“We has used Julie and her boys frequently over the last two years. They are so sweet and caring. I know Meatball is happy and well cared for when we are away. I have contacted Julie for last minute help multiple times and she always does everything in her power to help us out. I cannot say enough positive about the care her and her boys provide.”
“Tina was great with our 2 dogs who stayed for 1 night. Her communication was excellent and she sent updates and pics during their stay. We will be happy to have Tina watch our boys again in future.”
“Scott did an amazing job caring for our pup. This was our first time boarding our dog and we were worried how he would acclimate to a new environment. Shortly after drop off, Scott sent us a pictures when he introduced our dog to his, letting us know it went smoothly. We really appreciated this, and it gave us peace of mind. We can’t recommend Scott enough!”
“I unfortunately had to put my baby girl to sleep the evening before our trip and did not get to use the service paid for in advance so cant review on the actual stay but Janet seemed very nice and great at communicating and was eager to take care of Rosie if she wouldve made it.”
“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!”
“This was my second time using Heather’s boarding service and as Always, it was a great time to know my boy is safe and having fun with her and her dog Remi! I’ll continue to use her services anytime I’m traveling out here! She is a wonderful woman who is for sure an animal lover and a great caretaker. She sends updates and pictures of how they are all doing! If you’re looking for a sitter, look no further. She is the one to use”
“Cassie did a great job on taking care of our fur-baby while we are away for a week. Nothing like having a peace of mind while being away from our fur-baby. Highly recommended!”
“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!”
“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!”
“Crystal was an amazing pet sitter!!!! Crystal’s home was very clean, she was professional and a very sweet family. The whole time she kept us updated with pics and videos. Communication is key and she understood that giving my anxiety about my fur baby being away from me for the first time. Very much treated my Ozzy like her own. Ozzy and her dog Tank were like cousins lol. I will definitely keep booking with Crystal! If I could give her 10 stars I would!!!! 🤩❤️”
“So so so so good to our sweet boy. It was our first time boarding our Budan and she went above and beyond taking care of him. He got plenty of stimulation running around with her dogs and playing with her family!”
“Lynne watched our little girl for 4 days and 5 nights while we were on a trip. She texted me and sent me pics of my dog to let me know how things were going. I would recommend Lynne to anyone.”
“Sarah and her family provided exceptional care of our Millie during her stay. It was the longest boarding we’ve ever had and were a little nervous to leave her but Sarah was reassuring and sent pictures to let us know she was okay.”
“Popsie settled in quick and was comfortable while staying with Francesca. She doesn’t normally eat while we’re away but she actually ate this time around. I received daily pics and videos. I didn’t have to worry about Popsie at all.”

“Jamie was amazing with my high needs, attention-seeking cat. She made sure he he took all his meds and got some cuddle time. Dude got into pelts of trouble learning how open cabinets and such and Jamie was super sweet about letting me know and gathering up items he played with! Jamie is overall the best - highly recommended her!”
“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.”
“Hannah was a joy. She's very much an animal lover! I was quite comforted while away that she was checking on my baby and had no problems with what I needed for her to do. I would be a positive reference for her.”
“I am so thankful for Cassie for the diligent care she gave to our 18 year old cat who is very finicky. Cassie was patient with her allowing Patches to call the shots. Cassie sent multiple photos of her each day making our lives much more at ease knowing she was in good hands. God bless 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: I’ve owned dogs for 20 years or more, but not really counting anymore :) . Potty, and obedience training. Also owned a bird, reptile and fish. I bring a good energy so animals and I jive really well. I currently work part time with flexible hours and so I will be able to have the time during the week or weekend for your animals needs. My dogs are indoor outdoor dogs with fenced in yard. We do have kennels, but we do not use them but if I need to use them for your puppy, I would not mind doing that as well. My dogs do well with other dogs and if your dog has anxiety, then I can always keep them separate.
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.
“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: 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.
“Lacy has gone over and beyond the "call of duty" in providing professional, loving and attentive care for NEFERTITI. She was always willing courteous and willing to be flexible when my schedule fluxuated. I was totally pl”
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!
“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.
“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”
“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!”
About: Fun, loving family that would love the opportunity to love on your pet as we do our own. Huge fenced yard in the country for those pets that require it. If they stay around they have over an acre to play with us. We have a high energy GSP, so if your dog comes with energy there will be a mate here waiting. My two kids love getting in on the action as well. All of your pets needs will be taken care of with the highest regard. All pets are treated as they have a permanent home in our house. 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.

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: 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.
“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!”
“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.”
“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”

You choose.
“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!”

About: “Hannah is your go-to pet lover! When she’s not greeting folks at the front desk and handling insurance at Baptist Health, she’s probably planning her next adventure, or spending time with her fur babies! Hannah absolutely loves to travel and has a whole crew of four-legged friends at home. She’s got two adorable Mini Aussies who are eight years old, two playful cats that are a year and a half, and even some reptiles she’s been caring for over the past five years. Growing up on a farm means she’s no stranger to looking after all kinds of animals. If you need someone to drop by and check on your pets, she’s available for morning visits between 7 and 8 a.m., or after 5 p.m. on weekdays once she’s off work. Plus, if you give her a little heads-up, weekends can work too!” “Hannah lives in Shepherdsville and happily serves clients in Shepherdsville, Elizabethtown, Lebanon Junction, Boston, and even occasionally Bardstown. Whenever you need someone to drop by and take care of your furry (or scaly!) friends, she’s got you covered.” I have a pretty set schedule that I can work around! I work M-F 8:30-5 in Elizabethtown, I drive from Shepherdsville, so I can stop in before work or after, or both! I can accommodate any requests! I don't like for pets to stay locked in a cage like most boarding facilities do. I like them to feel as if they are at home with you, if needed to be crated while they sleep I can do that as well.
“I was somewhat hesitant to bring someone new into the house I have a Cane Corso even though he's still a puppy however she sent me videos and pictures and he warmed up to her real quick which I know he likes the girls LOL he look like he was happy which is exactly what I want for my baby I would definitely recommend her and I will be using her again”

Shortly after drop off, Scott sent us a pictures when he introduced our dog to his, letting us know it went smoothly. We really appreciated this, and it gave us peace of mind. We can’t recommend Scott enough!”
“I unfortunately had to put my baby girl to sleep the evening before our trip and did not get to use the service paid for in advance so cant review on the actual stay but Janet seemed very nice and great at communicating and was eager to take care of Rosie if she wouldve made it.”
“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!”
“Cassie did a great job on taking care of our fur-baby while we are away for a week. Nothing like having a peace of mind while being away from our fur-baby. Highly recommended!”
“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!”
“So so so so good to our sweet boy. It was our first time boarding our Budan and she went above and beyond taking care of him. He got plenty of stimulation running around with her dogs and playing with her family!”
“Sarah and her family provided exceptional care of our Millie during her stay. It was the longest boarding we’ve ever had and were a little nervous to leave her but Sarah was reassuring and sent pictures to let us know she was okay.”
“Popsie settled in quick and was comfortable while staying with Francesca. She doesn’t normally eat while we’re away but she actually ate this time around. I received daily pics and videos. I didn’t have to worry about Popsie at all.”
“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.”
“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.”
“Melody made our first time use of Rover a great experience! We were travelling in from out of town for a wedding and Melody made it easy to dropp off and pickup our dog. Great service and overall experience!”
“Reservé con Nelson el cuidado de mis mascotas por 7 días, realmente hizo un excelente trabajo, Kira y Linda fueron acogidas como suyas. Todos los días recibía fotos y vídeos de ambas donde se mostraban alegres. Gracias Nelson sin dudas volvería a contratarte para que cuides de mis mascotas.”
“Maverick has a great time while I was out of town. Pictures and videos sent each day. I would recommend Dailyn to watch any animal! Maverick will definitely be back! They even sent home a framed photo with some other treats and toys for him.”
