“Stephen and Angela were great! They were great with communication and setting up our dog's stay. We have an older dog who gets anxious at typical boarding facilities but she came home happy, tired, and well cared for. We will definitely use them again next time she needs to stay somewhere!”
“Jared and Waverly did a fantastic job with my two pups. The pictures and updates throughout the week put my mind at ease knowing they were having a good time! Would highly recommend them to anyone looking to board their animals.”
“Carla took great care of Buddy. I was worried since I have not had him that long and he has never been away from me. She sent me photos daily and kept me updated. I would recommend her to anyone.”
“Chris took great care of our Lab while we were visiting our son at college. We asked a lot of him because Seamus had a muscle strain and could not run around or take walks. This is asking a lot of a caretaker trying to keep a 94 pound Lab “not active.” Chris is our go to Rover sitter, we know Seamus is getting great attention and care.”
“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!”
“Rachael was available last minute, was professional and took great care of all our Marley girls needs. I will most definitely be returning. Thanks again!”
“Heather took great care of my dog. She loved being there and I appreciated her taking pics of my dog while I was away. Will definitely use her again when needed. 😊”
“We always feel comfortable leaving Sirius with Alexis and Daniel. They take great care of him and I think he has a lot of fun with them and their dog. He also comes home very tired.”
“Sarah and Daniel were wonderful at keep us updated and sending pictures of our fur babies during their stay. They were very well cared for and loved. We will most definitely rebook with them! ❤️”
“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 has got to be one of our best Rover experiences! Jessica and her wonderful family took great care of our extremely anxious dog and we can literally see a change in our dog since she's back. She's been so less anxious and i think its probably because of Jessica's little boys and her 2 adorable Corgis that made our dog feel safe and excited and calm at the same time. They took our dog on regular walks and were very considerate of her health issues the whole time. Jessica kept us constantly updated with pictures and daily activities. Her boys also packed us a little goodie bag as our dog left them that was so endearing. They had a great yard and beautiful neighborhood that seems to be a pup haven! I'd leave our dog with Jessica and her family anytime again in a heartbeat! Thank you, Jessica!!”
“We love Dan! She is a gem and treats our dog like royalty... sometimes we worry he won't want to come back home😂 excellent communication with lots of pictures and updates throughout the day. Truly goes above and beyond. We feel so lucky to have found her! Can't recommend Dan enough!”
“Bill was amazing watching our hound, who can be anxious. He had great communication and sent plenty of pics throughout her stay. She seemed very relaxed when we picked her up! Will be using his services again.”
“Our 2 dogs had an amazing time with Megan, Axel and the family. We appreciated the attention to detail of what our dogs needed, and the pictures sent of them. They really enjoyed themselves and were wore out from playing with Axel and one another while we were away. Would highly recommend Meagan for your pet’s booking needs. We will book again forsure!”
“Daphne was wonderful! She took Lola as a last minute booking and we couldn't be happier! We received daily picture updates. Lola was treated like a little princess with lots of love! 🩷 Highly recommend Daphne!”
“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.”
About: I have loved and cared for animals all my life. Most recently I began regularly fostering dogs with LMAS. I have fostered over a dozen dogs of all ages but I specialize with puppies. I focus on house and crate training with puppies and I enjoy multiple daily walks through my neighborhood park. I currently work from home from 9-5 and I am free on weekends. In my spare time I enjoy running and riding my bike. I believe in the more the merrier so if your pup is up to join I'm all for it! My home has a moderately sized fenced in backyard and a screened in patio that is very popular with my foster puppies. I enjoy house and crate training and I have had a lot of success through threshold training. I have a Siberian Husky and a Tabby Cat that get along with each other and they also love making new friends.
“My dog is kind of neurotic (was a rescue from a breeding farm and doesn't really know how to be a dog sometimes) and Elizabeth and Phillip dealt with him wonderfully, met him where he was, made him comfortable, and encouraged him to come out of his shell. I highly recommend them and am so grateful for their high-quality care of my pup!!”
“This is my 3rd or 4th time utilizing Amanda’s services and she was excellent, as usual. Mr Bentley loves her and her dogs. I feel very comfortable and at ease whenever I am traveling. I will book her again.”

“Joanna takes good care of my kitty. She sent us some pictures during our travel. Thanks to her, our travel was with no worries. This is the first time I hire a pet sitter through Rover, and I am pretty satisfied.”
“I trust Taylor more than my own best friend with my cats! Thank you Taylor for always being such a big help! My babies absolutely love Taylor and how kind she is to them, also very respectful of my home which is always a plus!”
“This was my second time booking with Lauran, and once again she was absolutely wonderful! Having someone I can trust with my two cats gives me so much peace of mind while we're away. She kept me updated with photos and messages, made sure my cats were well cared for, and even managed to earn the trust of my very shy cat, which says a lot! It's clear she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after and goes above and beyond to make sure they're comfortable. I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter!”
“Tabitha did a great job again taking care of our cats and our home!!! We have slightly difficult, special needs cats and we always feel good about leaving them with Tabitha.”
“Grace was an excellent pet sitter for our three cats. She was professional, responsible, and communicated clearly throughout our time away. We always knew how our cats were doing, which gave us peace of mind. She followed instructions carefully, was dependable, and treated our cats with genuine care. We would not hesitate to trust Grace again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive pet sitter”
“Fatima took such good care of my kitty! And never failed to send updates and tons of photos! I could not recommend her enough as someone to trust to take care of your fur baby❤️❤️”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! Julia was absolutely wonderful in every way—reliable, caring, communicative, and clearly treated our cats like her own. We felt completely comfortable knowing our pets were in such great hands while we were away. She also went above and beyond by bringing in packages, taking care of the trash cans, and providing extra details that made being away easier. We truly appreciated the extra effort and attention to detail. We highly recommend Julia and will definitely use her again!”
“Michael was great for my dog, Crockett, and 2 cats, Malibu and Ruth! He was very responsive to any questions I had and took extra time to play with Crockett while he was here, and was careful about not letting the cats slip out (which I warned him that they may try). His pricing was great and he was able to accommodate 4 days of check-ins on pretty short notice. I’ll definitely be hoping he’s available next time I’m booking through Rover.”
“Isabella was so great with our Kitty! She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures throughout our trip. She even made sure to provide detailed updates of Kitty's mood and behaviors during her visits. We will definitely be booking her again for future trips!”
“Janet was great with my three cats while I was on vacation for 5 days. Aside from basic feeding and cleaning the boxes, she took time to hang out with the kitties and play with them during her visit. She’s very responsive and left detailed notes each time she checked on the cats. Janet also took a bunch of cute pictures for every visit. I highly recommend her if you’re looking for a dependable and sweet pet sitter!”
“Mary went above and beyond! She took such great care of my babies while I was away and kept me constantly updated throughout. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in excellent hands. Everything was well taken care of when I got home, and my cats seemed happy and comfortable. I really appreciate how reliable, caring, and attentive she was. I will absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her!”
“It was such a relief knowing Anne was visiting my kitties everyday I was away. She always tried to engage them even when they were shy. She would pet and encourage them to eat. I appreciate her!”
“Alan was excellent with my cat's and provided great communication! Rory is usually very shy and won't come out for anybody but he was able to coax him out and give him some pets! 🥰”
About: I’ll admit it — I’m a relatively new member of the cat-obsessed club. Last year, we decided to foster kittens for the first time, and we quickly discovered that we are not very good at the whole “give them back” part. Two foster kittens later, we officially became cat parents. One of our kittens came to us as a medical foster when she was sick and needed some extra TLC. Caring for her through that experience taught me a lot about cats very quickly — from administering medications and monitoring how she was doing to learning that a tiny kitten can somehow take over an entire household. Watching her get healthy, come out of her shell, and eventually become part of our family was pretty special. Since then, I’ve learned that cats definitely have their own rules. Some will greet you at the door demanding attention, some want to play nonstop, and others need to conduct a thorough background check from underneath the bed before deciding whether you’re worthy. I’m perfectly happy with all three! I’ll let your cat set the pace and never force attention on a cat who would rather have some space. I’m comfortable administering medications, feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, playing with energetic cats and kittens, and, of course, providing plenty of scratches and cuddles when requested by management. I’m also a pediatric ICU nurse, so following detailed instructions, paying attention to small changes, and staying calm when something doesn’t seem quite right comes naturally to me. I know how much trust it takes to leave a pet in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously. You can also expect plenty of pictures and updates while you’re away. I’m the kind of pet owner who wants photographic evidence that everyone is alive, happy, and not plotting my demise while I’m gone — so I’ll happily provide the same reassurance for you. I may have gotten into the cat world a little later than some, but apparently all it took was one round of fostering to turn me into a full-fledged cat person. I’d love to keep your cat happy, comfortable, and appropriately spoiled while you’re away.
About: I have had cats as pets ever since I was little and currently am a cat mama to my sweet baby, Aria. I am comfortable with feeding, giving medications and cleaning litter boxes as needed.
“Jian looked after my cats for two weeks when I was on vacation. She did absolutely amazing job and my cats loved her so much. She communicated very promptly, super gentle to my babies and maintained everything exactly as I expected. She also sent me pictures and videos every visits. Highly recommended.”

“Rachel is so good to our little girl. She loves going to doggie day care and we feel so good about her being there with other dogs and humans who love her as much as we do!”
“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”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Stephen & Angela were wonderful! They took great care of Ferxxo and made us feel very comfortable from the beginning. They were kind, welcoming, and kept everything easy and stress-free. I would definitely trust them with Ferxxo again. Highly recommended. Thank you so much for taking such good care of him!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“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!”
“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!”
“Sarah & Daniel are my go to sitters for our fur-baby! Blue comes home so happy and worn out each time he spends a day with Sarah & Daniel. It’s truly the best, they take the best care of him!”

“Jessica was quick to respond and took amazing care of our dog on short notice on a holiday weekend. Nice family and neighborhood, would highly recommend and will definitely use her services again for our Kobe!”
“Kimba had a great time with Sarah. She took great care of Kimba and sent pictures throughout the day. Sarah 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 Sarah. I’d use her again next time we are in town.”
“Kaitlin took great care of our dogs! We were able to enjoy a dog-free afternoon on Whiskey Row knowing our girls were in good hands. Would definitely book again if we’re in the area!”
About: I have experience fostering for the humane society. I have a German shepherd at home and used to own a Siberian husky. I have fostered both puppies and kittens I work from home full-time so I can give your pet plenty of potty breaks and give them a walk on my lunch if needed I have a fenced in yard that your dog can play in. 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.
“Colin was absolutely amazing! I found him on short notice and he was super accommodating. I have a yorkie puppy who seemed to play fabulously with his Yorkies. Pups came back super tired from all the play time all while Colin kept me up to date with photos throughout the day. Highly recommend and will use again!”
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.
“Meg took care of our 16 weeks pup, Sumo without any trouble. Not only that, I think Sumo had a great day at her place running around, and playing with Meg's dog. Communication with Meg was perfectly smooth. Very fast respond and flexible. We are glad we leave Sumo with her.”
About: Hello! You can call me Wendy. I’m a tenured physics professor and a lifelong animal lover. I currently have three cats of my own and many years of experience caring for both cats and dogs. I have experience caring for senior pets and understand the importance of routines, medication schedules, and paying close attention to changes in behavior and health. I’m patient, reliable, detail-oriented, and committed to making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their family is away. For pets boarding in my home, I understand that some pets may be more comfortable having their own space. If you prefer, I can keep my three cats completely separate from your pet for the entire stay, so your pet can relax in a safe, quiet environment. As a professor, I bring professionalism, responsibility, and strong communication to every pet-sitting job. My schedule is especially flexible during evenings, weekends, holidays, and university breaks. Whether you need house sitting, drop-in visits, dog walking, feeding, litter box cleaning, or care for senior pets, I will treat your pets and home with the same care and respect I give my own.
About: Hi! My name is Logan and I reside in St Matthew’s. I’ve worked in pet care since age 12 with my childhood dog Lady. I now have only 1 pet (a cat named Big G) and have previously owned an Australian Shepard , exotic fish, and geckos . I love pets of all shapes and sizes and animals more broadly.

I am a substitute teacher with JCPS and have an afternoons and early mornings free for care. I have a flexible schedule and can make things work for your convenience. I typically visit clients home rather than host at my own residence . I am clean, prompt , and responsive when dealing with pets and their owners .
About: I have experience with both young and older pets. With puppies and kittens, I stay consistent with routines and can help reinforce basic training like potty habits, feeding schedules, and positive behavior. For senior pets, I’m gentle and attentive to their needs, whether that means giving medication, moving at a slower pace, or just providing extra comfort and companionship. I also make sure pet owners feel at ease by keeping communication open—I can send updates, photos, and check-ins so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to create a stress-free experience for both you and your pet. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for. I make time for walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day, and I’m consistent with routines so pets feel comfortable and secure. Throughout the week, I stay flexible to meet each pet’s specific needs, whether that’s extra visits, longer walks, or special care. I’m reliable and make sure every pet gets the attention and care they deserve. In my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets are comfortable, safe, and kept on their normal routine. I follow all feeding instructions, give fresh water, regular potty breaks, and plenty of exercise and attention. I also provide playtime, affection, and calm companionship so they feel at ease while you’re away. I keep the space clean and always respect the client’s home just like it’s my own.
About: I had dogs and cats in my house my entire childhood. I helped feed them and walk them, gave them medications and played with them. I’ve even given a rowdy Doberman eye drops 😅 long story short, since moving away, I’m looking to have more pets in my life. As for cats, I also grew up cleaning litter boxes and dealing with diet changes. I’ve brushed cats on a very regular basis and love playing with them.

All animals have different needs and I’m all about observing and listening to them in the moment.

“Tabitha made for an excellent first time experience with Rover! She was exactly what we wanted for our puppy while we were away on vacation. She was timely, professional, and seemed to really enjoy what she does which makes a difference. Thank you so much for entertaining our wild child while we were gone!”
“Lauran was fantastic while I was visiting Louisville for the Kentucky Oaks and Derby weekend. Her communication was top notch, always quick to respond and kept me updated throughout the two days. I especially appreciated her flexibility when I needed to add an extra walk at the last minute, she was incredibly accommodating and handled it without any issues. It’s a huge relief to find someone so reliable and easy to work with when you're visiting another city for an event. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a professional and adaptable walker!”
“Taylor did amazing with our pets. Our pup is very dog reactive and Taylor used her extensive experience while navigating walks with her. She has quite a charm with animals.

“Taylor is awesome. He was so good to my dogs. He walked them & played with them. He is great with animals. He is reliable & dependable. He helped me with a lot of things like fresh water & feeding the dogs. I'm asking him to continue helping me.”

About: Owned dogs since I was young and I’ve sat for dogs for the last 8+ years. Experience with many different breeds, ages and temperaments. Just a girl with a soft spot for every dog! During weekends I am available all day, everyday and ensure to get multiple walks, potty breaks and playtime dates into the day. During the week I do work but am home every 4-6 hours to ensure potty breaks and exercise. I live in an apartment complex that offers multiple dog runs/parks. I also walk my own dog 3-5 times per day outside in the neighborhood. I am open to crating or freedom around the apartment based on what the dog needs.
About: I was a three times a day dog walker for an elderly neighbor. When she passed I took ownership of dog. Now I am looking for some new clients. I work from home and dog walk. I have the time to give to your pup tons of walks, play with them, and give lots of kisses. Fridays are dog park day! I can play with your dog in your home. Give your pup a break from the crate and have me walk and get play with your dog.
About: I have a genuine love for animals and I have been pet/house sitting for about 10 years. I have always had pets and been around all different kinds of animals. I just graduated from law school, I started my new job post law school. I do work in an office, but I am able to stop in and make sure your animal is taken care of. I live in an apartment so I would prefer to take care of a pet at your home. I am happy to walk a dog on a leash, let them out to play, play with them, take them to a dog park.
About: Since graduating high school, I’ve worked as a house and pet sitter for neighbors, friends, and family. I’ve pet‑sat on and off over the last few years and am hoping to take on more jobs this summer before starting my senior year of college in August. I’m patient, responsible, and caring, and I truly enjoy spending time with animals. I can’t wait for the opportunity to work with you and your pets! I’m a college student currently on summer break, so I have plenty of free time each day to focus on caring for pets. My schedule is very flexible, and I’m able to give consistent attention and maintain a reliable routine for your pet. I always prioritize safety and comfort, whether that means supervised outdoor play, quiet indoor time, or crating if needed. I follow each pet’s routine closely, keep their environment clean, and make sure they feel secure, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.
“My address didn’t update correctly, but she was willing to work with me on an already last minute booking. I can’t thank her enough for going above and beyond. I highly recommend Rebecca if you want your pets well taken care of!”

I am a full time college student however, I have my evenings free on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and weekends work great for me as well. I love dog training and I am extremely passionate about animal research, so I love to learn more. I am detail oriented, I have a dog of my own, and I actively pet sit.

About: Hi! I have been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember, and animals have always been one of my biggest passions. I currently have two rescue dogs and a rescue kitten, so I am constantly surrounded by animals and am very familiar with the care, attention, and love they require. My dogs are apartment dogs with a small yard, so we average about 5–6 walks a day. Walking, playing with, and loving on animals are genuinely some of my favorite things to do. My mission is to provide the best care possible for your pet while also making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I have plenty of experience caring for puppies, kittens, elderly dogs and cats, administering medications, animal hygiene, and more. I am comfortable around animals of any size, color, or breed, and I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. When I come to walk, play with, visit, or take care of your animals, I will dedicate my time to making sure they are happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I love being able to spend my time doing something I genuinely enjoy while giving other people peace of mind knowing their pets are being cared for. A little about my own pets: I have my Pittie, Bandit, who is 6 years old and a rescue. I also have Koda, my 3 month old Pitbull/German Shepherd mix who is also a rescue. Lastly, I have Loki, my 4 month old rescue kitten. They are my world, and I would treat your pets with that same love and care! I am a full-time online student at ASU, which means I am home most of the time and have very open availability. I am also very flexible and can often accept last-minute bookings I have a fenced in yard and two very friendly dogs! I also walk my dogs very frequently and don’t mind to add more to our walks. I have a large 2 bedroom apartment with plenty of space and beds for playing, sleeping, and zoomies!
About: I know firsthand how stressful it can be to leave your pets with someone new. I’ve lived all across the country, and every time we moved, one of my biggest worries was finding someone I truly trusted with my dogs. That experience is a big part of why I want to provide the same kind of care and reassurance I’ve always looked for in a sitter. Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I have three dogs and two cats of my own, including a rescue pup so I totally get having a dog with some special quirks. I also spend time taking dogs from Louisville Metro Animal Services (LMAS) out on field trips, giving them a chance to get out of the shelter, explore, play, and get some much-deserved one-on-one attention. I have a soft spot for the pets who need a little extra patience. One of my dogs is extremely anxious and terrified of thunderstorms, so I understand that not every dog immediately warms up to a new person — and that’s okay! I’m happy to take things at their pace and learn what makes them feel comfortable and safe. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes, as well as cats, and I’m comfortable administering medications and following detailed care routines. My experiences as a pediatric ICU nurse has taught me to be attentive to small changes, stay clam under pressure, follow detailed care instructions, and understand just how important it is to have someone you can trust caring for a member of your family. My dogs can be pretty anxious, so leaving them with a stranger has never been easy for me. I’m the pet parent who wants lots of updates and probably way too many pictures while I’m gone! When your pets are with me, expect plenty of photos and updates. I know how reassuring it is to see your dog happily lounging on the couch, enjoying their walk, or just being their goofy self while you’re away. I want you to enjoy your time away without wondering how things are going back home. Most importantly, I genuinely love spending time with animals. Whether your dog wants long walks, someone to throw their toy 100 times, or spend the evening curled up next to me, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I want you to be able to leave home knowing your pets are with someone who understands how much they mean to you - because I know exactly how that feels. I work full-time, but I have a flexible schedule that still leaves plenty of room for pet care! I work from home on Wednesdays and Fridays, which gives me even more flexibility for drop-ins, walks, and spending some extra time with your pets on those days. I’m also an early riser, so morning visits are no problem for me — I’m happy to start my day with a walk, breakfast, litter box cleanup, or some quality time with your pet before heading to work. I know how important reliable scheduling is when someone is depending on you to care for their pets, so I’ll keep my Rover calendar updated to clearly reflect my availability. If I accept a booking, you can feel confident that I’ve made sure I have the time to give your pet the attention and care they deserve — along with plenty of photo updates along the way! Your pet’s safety and your trust are my top priorities. I’ll always follow your care instructions closely and respect your home as if it were my own. Before walks, I’ll make sure collars, harnesses, and leashes are secure, and I’ll never let a dog off leash unless specifically instructed in a safe, designated area. During drop-ins, I’ll be mindful of doors, gates, medications, food, and anything else that could pose a safety risk. I’ll also pay attention to your pet’s behavior and never force interaction if they seem nervous or uncomfortable. As a pediatric ICU nurse, safety, attention to detail, and noticing when something seems “off” are second nature to me. I’ll keep you updated during each visit and communicate right away if I notice anything concerning. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing both your pet and your home are being treated with care and respect while you’re away.

“Stephen and Angela were great! They were great with communication and setting up our dog's stay. We have an older dog who gets anxious at typical boarding facilities but she came home happy, tired, and well cared for. We will definitely use them again next time she needs to stay somewhere!”
“Jared and Waverly did a fantastic job with my two pups. The pictures and updates throughout the week put my mind at ease knowing they were having a good time! Would highly recommend them to anyone looking to board their animals.”
“Chris took great care of our Lab while we were visiting our son at college. We asked a lot of him because Seamus had a muscle strain and could not run around or take walks. This is asking a lot of a caretaker trying to keep a 94 pound Lab “not active.” Chris is our go to Rover sitter, we know Seamus is getting great attention and care.”
“Rachael was available last minute, was professional and took great care of all our Marley girls needs. I will most definitely be returning. Thanks again!”
“We always feel comfortable leaving Sirius with Alexis and Daniel. They take great care of him and I think he has a lot of fun with them and their dog. He also comes home very tired.”
“Sarah and her family were great taking care of our fur baby. I was really nervous with leaving her for the first time. Sarah made it easy. We got pictures and updates daily. We will definitely use her again. I think Piper was a little sad to leave her new friends”
“Sarah and Daniel were wonderful at keep us updated and sending pictures of our fur babies during their stay. They were very well cared for and loved. We will most definitely rebook with them! ❤️”
“Nissa took such wonderful care of our dogs! They had so much fun and I loved all the thoughtful updates while we were gone. I felt so much better knowing they were in great hands!”
“Took very good care of my babies while staying at his place. Was very resourceful and patient when my Pickles decided to play the hiding game and then started getting agressive. I appreciate Roy for watching and keeping my babies safe during the day.”
“This has got to be one of our best Rover experiences! Jessica and her wonderful family took great care of our extremely anxious dog and we can literally see a change in our dog since she's back. She's been so less anxious and i think its probably because of Jessica's little boys and her 2 adorable Corgis that made our dog feel safe and excited and calm at the same time. They took our dog on regular walks and were very considerate of her health issues the whole time. Jessica kept us constantly updated with pictures and daily activities. Her boys also packed us a little goodie bag as our dog left them that was so endearing. They had a great yard and beautiful neighborhood that seems to be a pup haven! I'd leave our dog with Jessica and her family anytime again in a heartbeat! Thank you, Jessica!!”
“We love Dan! She is a gem and treats our dog like royalty... sometimes we worry he won't want to come back home😂 excellent communication with lots of pictures and updates throughout the day. Truly goes above and beyond. We feel so lucky to have found her! Can't recommend Dan enough!”
“Bill was amazing watching our hound, who can be anxious. He had great communication and sent plenty of pics throughout her stay. She seemed very relaxed when we picked her up! Will be using his services again.”
“Our 2 dogs had an amazing time with Megan, Axel and the family. We appreciated the attention to detail of what our dogs needed, and the pictures sent of them. They really enjoyed themselves and were wore out from playing with Axel and one another while we were away. Would highly recommend Meagan for your pet’s booking needs. We will book again forsure!”
“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.”
About: I have loved and cared for animals all my life. Most recently I began regularly fostering dogs with LMAS. I have fostered over a dozen dogs of all ages but I specialize with puppies. I focus on house and crate training with puppies and I enjoy multiple daily walks through my neighborhood park. I currently work from home from 9-5 and I am free on weekends. In my spare time I enjoy running and riding my bike. I believe in the more the merrier so if your pup is up to join I'm all for it! My home has a moderately sized fenced in backyard and a screened in patio that is very popular with my foster puppies. I enjoy house and crate training and I have had a lot of success through threshold training. I have a Siberian Husky and a Tabby Cat that get along with each other and they also love making new friends.
“Ian was amazing! He stayed in contact with us so we knew our baby was comfortable and happy. She is older, deaf, and not used to being alone since I work from home. He dealt with her laundry list of specific needs and never missed a beat. She made a new friend and we will be using him again if we ever have another need for extended care.”
“My dog is kind of neurotic (was a rescue from a breeding farm and doesn't really know how to be a dog sometimes) and Elizabeth and Phillip dealt with him wonderfully, met him where he was, made him comfortable, and encouraged him to come out of his shell. I highly recommend them and am so grateful for their high-quality care of my pup!!”
“Miller had the best time! Highly recommend Sean and his services. He gives updates and a peace of mind while you’re away! He truly enjoys spending time with your furry friends!”
