Personalized care for your dog or cat - Buckner
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Buckner
“Adam and family took great care of our pups! They sent pictures and updates every day and I felt like they genuinely cared for our precious dogs. One of our pups has a hard time getting along with other dogs at first, but they were patient, introduced her slowly to the others, and she eventually settled in. Thanks for all the doggie snuggles! We'll be back!”
“I am so glad I found Dan. She took amazing care of our dog in her home while we were on vacation. I was so relieved to know he was getting the same amount (if not more haha!) of attention, love, and activity as we give him. She took him on long walks, played with him at the park, gave him extra treats, and even bathed him when he got a little dirty playing outside. Dan sent us plenty of photos and videos while we were gone. I will use Dan any time we are out of town again and I couldn't recommend her enough!”
“Great experience with Daniel and his family. Leia, my dog, is extremely energetic, and she got along well with Diesel and was able to get plenty of play time outside. When I picked her up, she was well exercised, which is always a relief! I hope to leave Leia with Daniel again.”
“I can’t say enough good things about these folks. To start, they spent an hour with me and Benny (my pup) in advance of my trip and introduced us to their place. Benny loved the big backyard and I could tell he immediately felt at home. During my trip, I received daily videos of Benny playing with other dogs or being loved on, which made me feel good knowing I was so far away from home. Benny is such a good dog and I am grateful to have connected with people as equally good and loving. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.”
“Maggie loves staying with Heather and Remi! She gets to play and run and have such a fun time. Heather is so friendly and communicative. We will definitely book with Heather again in the future!”
“Alyssa was awesome! Her and her kiddos welcomed Zorro with open arms! She kept me posted on how he was doing and out my mind at ease during his stay. Thanks Alyssa, I will definitely be rebooking for any future needs!”
“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!”
“Amanda is the sweetest and her son loves my dog!! I feel safe when my dog is with her. She is the only person I've left my dog with overnight and her little ones play with my little guy all day! I know when he's with her he's safe and cared for. She sends pictures to ease any worries and is a great pet sitter!!”
“I have never left my dogs with a sitter before and Jessica was amazing. Completely eased my mind about leaving my boys with her and kept me updated with pictures while I was away. I will definitely use her again.”
“Amanda was amazing with our 4 year old Vizsla. She treated her like a queen and helped our anxious dog feel right at home. I will definitely use Amanda again and can’t recommend her enough.”
“Crystal was the absolute best! It was a last minute trip away; and she went above and beyond! She took great care of my fur baby, and sent pictures daily! My service was a little wacky, but she continued to send me pictures and updates and it was so appreciated!!! It means the absolute most to be able to leave my fur baby with someone that keeps me in the loop and is trusted so well! Would 100% book again!”
“Jian was the answer to our prayers. Not only did she take excellent care of Louis she constantly updated us with sweet texts and pictures. I couldn’t have found anyone better. I would be very happy to have her care for Louis again. I honestly cannot say enough great things about her. She was excellent”
“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!”
“Eliane was amazing!!! She made us feel so comfortable and provided regular updates with great photos. She took our dog on long walks and spent quality time with her throughout our trip. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch our dog!”

“Caitlin was so great with our babies! She was able to get my super shy cat to eat, which is always difficult to achieve with a new person. She was very communicative and made us feel totally at ease.”
“Brandi took care of our cats as if they were her own. They never have anything to do with anyone new. They warmed up to Brandi as if they have known her for years. She will be our go to for any needs in the future. A+, 5 stars, 110% you name it. You can't go wrong with Brandi.”
“Taylor went so far above and beyond for my 2 cats, I can’t recommend him enough. Communication was great and it’s obvious he genuinely cares about the animals he cares for. He deserves the highest possible rating and I will absolutely book with Taylor again.”
About: As both a lifelong cat owner and someone with veterinary technician experience, I understand feline behavior, health, and the importance of keeping cats calm and comfortable in their own environment. I provide attentive care including feeding, litter maintenance, playtime, and close monitoring for any health or behavioral changes. I’m comfortable administering medications when needed and handling cats with patience and respect for their individual personalities. I truly love cats and treat every one in my care as if they were my own.
About: While most of my pet experience has been with dogs, I am more than capable and experienced providing quality care for cats. Whether your kitten needs someone that just fills the bowl or someone to provide a lap to sit in, you can count on me!
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 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. 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. I am actually a new cat owner! I have had my kitten Loki for about 2 months now. My poor guy has had it rough! Just at 4 months old he’s had two major surgeries, one being a neutering surgery and the other being an emergency hernia repair surgery. All while having cocidia and giardia. But none of that slowed me or my little guy down, we were determined to get him healthy. I lived on google for the first 2 weeks I had him, wondering what to do, how to keep him healthy and so much more as I am a brand new cat owner. I can proudly say I have researched every square inch of a cat’s health and have memorized it all. I am not thankful for the experiences Loki and I have faced, but they turned me into the best educated cat mom ever! 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!
About: I’m an experienced cat owner and have also cared for other people’s cats. I understand that every cat has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. I’m patient, gentle, and happy to give your cat the space, attention, playtime, and care they need while you’re away. I’ll treat your fur babies and home with respect and keep you updated so you can feel comfortable knowing they’re in good hands.
“Nicole was fantastic! She went above and beyond with both myself and my cat. She scheduled a Meet & Greet before I left to get the lay of the land and meet my kitty. She truly has a heart for animals and so much knowledge. It takes a special person to “know cats” and Nicole gets it. She spent so much time during her visits to spend time with my cat, she didn’t just stop in and feed him and leave. Also, it’s worth noting that we had a major snowstorm here (more than we have had in YEARS) and she still found a way to get here twice a day in the weather to make sure my cat was cared for. She went above and beyond. I highly recommend her to anyone and will tell all my friends to use her as well. She’s a gem!”
About: I’ve had experience with a lot of cat drop ins, feeding, changing their water, letting them outside with supervision, and scooping litter. I want to give your cat the best experience when you are away, so I will do anything you need me to to accommodate your cat perfectly.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my strong attention to detail and the level of care and communication I provide. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs so they feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I’m experienced with both puppies who need consistency and positive reinforcement, as well as senior pets who may require extra patience, monitoring, or medication. I prioritize clear, ongoing communication by regularly checking in with owners, sending updates and photos, and making sure they feel confident about how their pets are doing. I’m also happy to help with small errands, such as picking up pet supplies or essentials, to make time away as stress-free as possible. I treat every pet as if they were my own and every home with care and respect. Not scared of cleaning cat boxes and administering medication.
About: I enjoy providing personalized care for every Cat. It takes time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and specific needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I have experience caring for cats. I own two cats (one boy and girl) both spayed/neutered of my own that were rescues from the KY Humane Society. I'm reliable, detail-oriented, and provide regular updates with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in caring hands.
“Megan was amazing with our 2 cats (even though one is a little bit psycho 🤣). She gave them meds daily and was willing to work with us when our flight got delayed and we had to come the next morning.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Buckner
“Our dog's stay with Jim went well. When we first arrived, Stella was nervous being in a new home with strange dogs. But Jim quickly put her at ease - she relaxed within a few minutes. Jim is definitely a dog person. When I picked Stella up, she was as happy as could be.”
“Jared and Waverly were so nice and great care givers. I loved that we video chatted in advance to meet and ensure a good match. They were super flexible and very easy to communicate with. We, and Glory, thank them for making us all very happy!”
“Dan and her family were wonderful to my furry baby. She kept me updated with everything going on (lots of nice walks which my pup loves). She was tuckered out by the end of the day which was great. Thank you!”
“From first hello, Sean was gentle with Winnie, who can be nervous around new men. He was so thorough and professional in communicating with us and was completely flexible with our return time, as we tooled around Louisville to see the sights. We could not have felt more secure knowing Sean was looking after our girl (and walking her down to the Ohio River was just icing on the cake). Recommend Sean highly!!!”
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 boarding and doggy day care, I care for only one dog or one family’s dogs at a time. If you have multiple dogs from the same household, I’m happy to care for them together. This allows me to provide plenty of personalized attention in a calm, comfortable home environment without mixing unfamiliar dogs. I have three cats, but they can be kept completely separate from your dog(s) if needed. My goal is to provide a safe, relaxed, home-like experience where your pets receive lots of individual attention and care. 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: 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.
“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!”
“We are from out of town, in Indiana for a short time. We received a last minute invite to go to Churchill downs - Elizabeth accepted our request to puppy sit... and our pupp had the best day! We received pictures and videos of her playing and living her best life. We felt totally at ease and relaxed knowing our little Willi was in great hands.”
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.
“Dogs seemed to have a great time! They were exhausted when they came home, too much fun! Joseph is very professional and we totally trust he and his wife to care for our babies.”
“Marissa is so sweet and caring towards my puppy Beau, he absolutely loves her and when it was time to pick him up he continued to snuggle and love on her so I know he is in good hands! Definitely recommend Marissa to care for your pets :)”
“Max is awesome. Kept me informed daily of Etta’s day. He clearly loves dogs!! He is gentle and kind to my baby. She liked him right away. He even wrote a poem about her!! Just loved everything about this experience 💕”
About: Although we currently only have one female dog, we have nearly always had 2 large dogs (Chesapeake bay retrievers) for the past 20 years. We lost our big guy in April 2024 and haven't had it in us to get another. So, we are ready to share our home and yard with your pup! I currently stay home with my two year old human and 7 year old dog. So, your dog will rarely ever be alone while boarded. We mostly just leave for my older kids sports events. I have a fully fenced acre for a backyard. It's a dog's paradise! I also have a female 7yo Chesapeake who is good with other dogs. I can keep dogs separate as needed. We have fostered before and had 0 issues. We generally keep dogs separated until they have proven compatible. She sleeps with our son. So, your dog could sleep with me. We have three kids, ages 2, 11, and 13. So, if you have a kid loving dog, we want to watch them!
“Ami was so kind and trustworthy, she took amazing care of my dog and I would highly recommend her to anyone anytime. She sent plenty of pics and videos - your dog couldn’t be in safer hands.”
“Ashley is a truly is so sweet!!! She provided a safe and loving environment for our boy, made him feel right at home. I could tell by our dog’s demeanor when picked up that he was tired and happy. Highly recommend her!!!”
“Today was our Millie's first trip to Melody's for doggy daycare. She absolutely loved it and had so much fun. Drop-off and pick-up is easy and very secure with multiple gates. Melody is informative and put me at ease with leaving our furbaby in such capable hands. We will be back! Highly recommend!!!”

“Caitlin was wonderful! So communicative and prompt at responding. I could trust her right away with my pup. She was very go with the flow too when we had some last minute garage door issues. Very grateful!”
About: I have always had a huge heart for animals and genuinely love spending time with them. I currently volunteer at a local humane society, where I help clean, care for animals, and make sure they feel safe and loved. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every dog and cat like they’re my own. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, potty breaks, medication, or just sitting quietly with a nervous pet who needs reassurance, I show up with patience and kindness. I’m dependable, detail oriented, and great at following instructions. You can count on updates, pictures, and clear communication during every visit. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable and you feel completely at ease while you’re away. I am currently working from home and have a flexible schedule. I can come before work, on my lunch break and after work! I am off on the weekends! I primarily provide care in my client’s home so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, potty breaks, and home access guidelines. I am respectful of your space, always ensure doors are securely locked, and keep your home just as I found it. I provide detailed updates and photos during each visit so you can feel confident your pet is safe and well cared for. My goal is to create a calm, stress free experience for both you and your pet.
About: Hi! I’m Terri, and I’ve spent most of my life working with people, animals, and creating environments where others feel safe and cared for. I was a teacher for 20 years, so I’m extremely patient, responsible, and attentive to details—qualities that translate perfectly to caring for pets. I also have a strong background in customer service from my time at the Four Seasons, where I learned how important trust, communication, and reliability are. My schedule is very flexible right now, and I’m currently available most days from late morning through the evening. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and provide consistent, reliable care. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, safety is always my top priority. I pay close attention to routines, surroundings, and each pet’s comfort level. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure, and I always follow any instructions you provide to keep your pet safe and happy.
About: I have owned dogs since I was little. Now I have my very own dog and hopefully will have another in a few years. I have watched my friend's dogs before and helped care for sick dogs. I have a very fun and young Lab named Pheona. She’s a good first dog to call my own but I have learned so much from her. It also made my love for dogs stronger. I do not mind coming in and checking on dogs or cats. I also love going on walks with dogs and definitely would love to take dogs for a walk. I can also help keep up training or help out with training. I am comfortable around pretty much all sizes of dogs. I myself have a larger-sized dog but I have lived with a variety of sizes of dogs. I’m a very friendly individual so don’t be afraid to reach out to communicate with me. Pet care fits easily into my routine. I’m currently in school, so I have a fairly flexible schedule and can make time for walks, feeding, playtime, and drop-in visits. I’m also happy to follow each pet’s normal routine and care instructions. I make sure pets are cared for in a safe, clean, and comfortable environment. I follow the owner’s instructions closely, keep an eye on their behavior and needs, and make sure they have plenty of attention, fresh water, food, and exercise. I also respect the owner’s home and try to keep each pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with years of experience caring for dogs with very different breeds, personalities, energy levels, ages, and needs. I’ve grown up around pit bulls and retrievers and am currently a proud Chiweenie owner. One thing I’ve learned from caring for dogs is that understanding their behavior is just as important as feeding them and taking them for walks. I’ve had experience recognizing when a dog is frightened or overstimulated and giving them the space and reassurance they need. For example, when my childhood dog became overwhelmed after a stressful interaction, I took him somewhere quiet so he could calm down. During thunderstorms and fireworks, when he would tremble with fear, I would bring him somewhere comfortable and stay with him until he settled. I’m also the person at family gatherings who naturally ends up keeping an eye on the dogs—making sure they’re getting enough exercise and attention while also making sure younger kids give them appropriate space and treat them respectfully. I’m comfortable with walks, playtime, bathing, and overnight care. I enjoy both tiring out an energetic dog and providing a calm presence for a nervous one. I’ve also cared for cats and generally find that they warm up to me pretty quickly. Most importantly, I will enjoy taking the time to learn your pet’s individual personality, routines, and boundaries. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they’re with me. I am available throughout the day. I wake up early and care for my own dog before 8 AM every day. I can come by whenever is needed or stick around if that is preferred! I start by taking any instruction from you to heart regarding your pet's personality and habits. Outside of that, I generally would like to start by having a joint meeting between me, your furry friend, and their best friend: you! That way, they can establish a level of trust for when I come by on my own. I follow the routine that you would like me to follow while remaining alert to your pet in the present, just like with my own pup.
About: I live in a pet-friendly apartment complex with plenty of space outdoors, perfect for the frequent pit stop and play time. Just down the street from me is a beautiful dog park, with lots of space to run, play, and socialize with other dogs! I would be thrilled to provide a comfortable and safe environment for your loved ones, worry free for both you and them, while on vacation. I'm an animal lover and can promise you they'll receive lots of attention, play time, and affection, while you are off enjoying some time to yourself! My current schedule is flexible and allows me time for drop in visits, daily walks and overnight boarding for most of the day and evening. I know every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I tailor my care to each individual animal. In a client’s home, I follow their normal schedule as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, medications, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I’m very attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, energy level, or anything else that seems out of the ordinary, and I’ll always communicate with you if I have any concerns. I’m also happy to send photos and updates so you can feel comfortable knowing how your pet is doing while you’re away. Most importantly, I want your pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their own environment. I treat every animal in my care with the same patience and attention I would want someone to give my own.
About: I am a calm, patient, and responsible pet lover who enjoys spending time with both dogs and cats. I currently have a 17-lb dog of my own, so I understand the daily responsibilities of caring for a pet, including feeding, walks, playtime, and keeping a consistent routine. I also previously cared for a medium-sized adult dog for about two months and have long-term experience interacting with cats through my previous workplace. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and needs, and I will always treat your pets with patience, kindness, and care. I am currently waiting for my nursing license transfer, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets. I am available throughout most weekdays and weekends and can accommodate a variety of visit times. I enjoy spending time with animals and can provide reliable care, companionship, feeding, playtime, and check-ins while you are away. I understand that every pet has its own routine and personality. During each visit, I will follow your instructions carefully to ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for in their familiar environment. I can provide feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, walks, playtime, and companionship. As someone with a healthcare background, I pay close attention to details and take responsibility for your pet’s well-being and safety.
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: A trait that I believe I inherited is my connection with animals. They have a place in my heart that is indescribable! I'm a cardiac sonographer who is responsible, patient, and kind. I always treat animals the way I would want my pet treated if leaving them with someone else. I enjoy taking walks and the feeling of taking care of something/someone that can't take care of themselves so it's no wonder that this is a perfect side hustle for me! I have years of great experience with all different ages from puppies/kittens to seniors. I'm also experienced in administering medications when necessary. I hope to meet you and your furry one(s) soon! As a cardiac sonographer, I have a schedule that allows me to have a fulfilled side hustle. Please send me a message if you're interested and we will line up our calendars for your needs! I care for pets patiently and with genuine love. Please contact me with any questions or accommodations that you may need! I have been around all animals of different species, needs, etc. my entire life.
About: I’ve cared for pets my whole life, from playful puppies to chill senior dogs and independent cats. I make sure they’re happy, safe, and loved, follow their routines, and don’t mind giving meds or keeping things clean. Every pet gets attention, playtime, and lots of love while their owners are away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, I already spend a lot of time walking, playing with, and caring for my own pets. I enjoy starting and ending my day with animals, whether it’s morning feedings, playtime, or evening walks. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine consistent and their environment calm and familiar. I make sure they’re well fed, exercised, and given plenty of attention, whether that’s playtime, walks, or quiet company.
“Lauren is amazing! I have two dogs, a senior and a puppy, that have different needs. She worked with me to plan their walks and communicated wonderfully. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend Lauren to help take care of your fur babies!!!”
About: I have a few years of training puppies and senior care of dogs/cats under my belt. I was pre-vet in college, so I am qualified to deal with all kinds of furry (and not so furry) friends. I work from home 2-5 hours a day so I have plenty of time to hang out with my animal friends!! I workout a ton outside and would love an exercise partner. Most weekends I am either outside gardening or hanging with my own dog. Dogs- I own a doodle and am prepared with how to deal with dogs of all ages. Cats- I do not own any cats, but cat-sit my neighbors cat all the time. Lots of experience with them. All other furry friends- Since I was pre-vet, I was trained on how to deal with all kinds of animals. I have an invisible fence for my dog and I do live in a neighborhood. Most of my neighbors either don’t have dogs (so they won’t become aggressive with yours) or have pets that have crossed the rainbow bridge.
About: Grew up on a farm with 20 dogs. I had my own dogs and have cared for family and friends’ dogs and cats for years. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to spend quality time with pets throughout the day. Whether it’s keeping them company, going for walks, playing or sticking to their routine. I care for every pet as if they were my own by following their normal routine, including feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medications if needed and plenty of love and attentions. I also respect my clients’ home by keeping them clean, secure, and following all instructions to make sure that both pets and owners feel comfortable and at ease.
“Breagha is a friendly pup but with all the recent changes in our lives has become pretty velcro with me. She took to Allie immediately and trusted her enough to trot out across the porch without me. She willingly went out in the yard for a short walk. Allie’s kind gentle personality is a perfect match for a sensitive collie.”
About: I have years of experience taking care of both dogs and cats, and with housesitting as well. I am able to help support animals who have health concerns, special needs, and anxiety. I can administer medication and give shots as well. I have a senior kitty and an adult age cat myself, so plenty of experience with senior care. And I have experience with dogs of all ages, including puppies and seniors. I am happy to work with any owner to accommodate their pets needs and make them feel comfortable while they are away. I am have nearly full availability the next couple of months, so please reach out and I should be able to accommodate any time frame. I will abide by all house and property rules for the animals safety which includes leashes, fences, walking paths. I am happy to work with owners on what they are most comfortable with. I do not bring pets inside my home as my cats are usually not friendly to that! But I am always happy to stay at others homes.

“Adam and family took great care of our pups! They sent pictures and updates every day and I felt like they genuinely cared for our precious dogs. One of our pups has a hard time getting along with other dogs at first, but they were patient, introduced her slowly to the others, and she eventually settled in. Thanks for all the doggie snuggles! We'll be back!”
“I am so glad I found Dan. She took amazing care of our dog in her home while we were on vacation. I was so relieved to know he was getting the same amount (if not more haha!) of attention, love, and activity as we give him. She took him on long walks, played with him at the park, gave him extra treats, and even bathed him when he got a little dirty playing outside. Dan sent us plenty of photos and videos while we were gone. I will use Dan any time we are out of town again and I couldn't recommend her enough!”
“Great experience with Daniel and his family. Leia, my dog, is extremely energetic, and she got along well with Diesel and was able to get plenty of play time outside. When I picked her up, she was well exercised, which is always a relief! I hope to leave Leia with Daniel again.”
“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.”
“Alyssa was awesome! Her and her kiddos welcomed Zorro with open arms! She kept me posted on how he was doing and out my mind at ease during his stay. Thanks Alyssa, I will definitely be rebooking for any future needs!”
“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!”
“Arabella had a great time at Arla's house! Arla did a great job keeping us informed of how Arabella was doing while we were away! Would highly recommend her and her family again!”
“Lilli was great communicating with us regarding Penny. We were out of cell network, so some photos and updates didn't work, but with some extra efforts, Lilli was able to let us know that she and Penny were doing fine, and she managed to send photos despite the setback. We will rebook with her when we have need of sitter!”
“Jim is a great dog sitter. My dog Norman love it there with his two other pups. I have had other sitters from rover and Jim is the best I have had. I like the included play area that is set up for the dogs as well.”
“Melody did a wonderful job with our Moose. He's a big boy who doesn't always realize his size and she did very well with him. Sent us updates with pics. We would highly recommend her; we plan on using her again in the future.”
“A couple of weeks ago, I had to leave town for two weeks due to work, and I had my sitter at the time cancel the day before I was set to leave town. I had never used Rover before, but I found Melissa and Jonathan on the app at the last minute and decided to give it a try. Despite the short notice, they immediately agreed to a meet-and-greet that same night before I had to leave. They were incredibly kind, welcoming, and understanding from the very beginning. Their space was spacious, comfortable, and perfect for my pet’s needs. Throughout the entire stay, they kept in touch with me on a daily basis by sending updates and pictures, and they were always quick to let me know if they had any concerns. I am very grateful that I was able to trust them with my pet, especially on such short notice and I would happily have them care for my pet again in the future. They are a hardworking, wonderful, and loving family, and I highly recommend them!”
“Incredible! Jen was so great with our little guy and we could tell he had a great time! She provided us with a lot of peace of mind and worked with us when we ended our trip early for the winter storm. Thanks Jen!”
“Very nice! Our pup enjoyed his stay and seemed to have a blast through all the videos and pictures we got during his stay. Will recommend them and will have them watch our pup again!”
“Valerie is awesome. One of our pups was getting over a stomach bug and she put us at ease during pick up about handling meds and monitoring progress. Our dogs loved her and became quick besties with her. I would book again without hesitation.”
