Highly-rated overnight sitters - Bybee
“Butterscotch had a great vacation at Cheyenne’s! It was clear from the photos that she was very well taken care of and loved on lots! I super appreciated Cheyenne’s clear communication style and flexibility around my schedule.”
“Desha took care of our 2 dogs for a couple of days while out of town and we are so thankful of the great care she provided! She was so communicative and sent photos of the happy pups at bedtime and morning. Her cute kids also gave the dogs a lot of affection and the dogs loved that! I hope to book with Desha again in the future!”
“Elena is terrific and the experience keeps getting better each time she watches our pupper. This time our pup didn't even want to leave! If that's not a sign of proper sitter, I don't know what is. Thanks again Elena!”
“Our pups really enjoyed their stay with Kimberly and Steve - they played together and even slept in bed with them. We're thankful to have met Kimberly and Steve, and so are our pups!!”
“Erin and her husband were amazing!! They took excellent care of our dog, Nash, while we were traveling. He got numerous walks while staying with them and came home ready to nap (which is always nice when we are also coming back from traveling)! Would highly recommend and Nash absolutely cannot wait to stay with his new friends again!”
“Selena was absolutely wonderful! So many pictures and updates. We were so happy with all the continuous communication throughout our dogs stay with her. She is so nice and the dogs had plenty of outdoor time and play with her friendly dog! Would definitely recommend!”
“Andy did a great job helping Nate feel at home. Nate got snacks he likes and outside breaks that were on his schedule. Andy sent a lot of updates with pictures. Besides the cute pictures, Andy sent me a picture that showed Nate feeling relaxed. Frankly, I was glad Nate still wanted to come home! Andy understands dogs, has an appreciation for the variety of normal dog behavior, and really does love dogs. His daughter also really loves dogs. Although I found Andy through Rover, a mutual friend confirmed that he’s a dog lover and would trust him with her dogs. Knowing that we had mutual friends was literally an answer to prayer. I would definitely trust this family with Nate again.”
“Bret was amazing, took great care of my Velcro baby. I work nights & Bret was able to accommodate my last minute booking. He’s very thorough & kind. I know Dior had a great time spending the night with him & his family. We would definitely be booking again.”
“Madison was amazing!!! Ranger is a very energetic pup and he had the best time with her and her dogs. She worked with all my requests and sent tons of pictures. I would give 10 stars if I could!!! I will definitely recommend her.”
“Gloria was amazing with my Riley! I contacted her super last minute due to an emergency and she was very willing to accommodate our needs- she even gave him a bath! I cannot recommend her enough. We’ll be booking again with Gloria!”
“Ann was great with my little dog. She was easy to communicate with and answered my questions quickly. I was surprised to see Ann had 2 large dogs of her own. That’s on me, I should have asked if she had large dogs. I got really nervous about leaving Scruffy because his back has been injured a couple of times by larger dogs. Ann was very reassuring and took good care of Scruffy. She also sent lots of photos to help easy my mind. I will be using Ann again.”
“We went out of town for a week leaving our one year old Bulldog with Nef. He came to meet our dog and even accommodated transportation. My dog is very picky on who she likes however it was love from first sight. This was the first time we had to board our dog and now we have our go to person for life. Thanks Nef for the outstanding service!”

“Eggbert had a great time! I could tell by his behavior and poop he was well cared for. I did get pictures and updates which was much appreciated. Will book again ❤️🎶”
“Victoria did a fantastic job with my dog! She lives on a beautiful piece of land with hobby barn animals as well as cats and dogs. As a trainer she knew the best way to introduce my dog to them. She was extremely responsive to messages as well!”

“Wonderful experience meeting Tiffany and having her care for my 2 kitties while I was away for the weekend. I appreciated the detailed updates and pictures. Even my shy one came out to see Tiffany and asked for pets! It was a relief knowing they were in great hands. Thank you, Tiffany!”
“I could not be more pleased or relieved to have Alicia as our pet sitter. I even schedule my time around her availability. I respect her integrity n ability to understand each of my cats individually!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs practically my whole life. It’s one of my greatest passions and most of my life I would dogsit for anyone who would let me growing up. I would love to make sure all of the animals are safe and well cared for while their owners are gone. I currently go to school and work part time, but there is most certainly time for me to fit in helping these families with their animals when they need it. I do live in an apartment complex but I have many years of experience with walking dogs of all kinds so I could walk it when needed. As for as toys, a crate or bedding at my apartment, I don’t have much of that, but could get some if needed.
“This was my first time using rover and having someone besides a family member care for my senior cat so I was very nervous about how she would do. Rachael took great care of her and gave me plenty of updates and pictures! Bella did wonderful! Would definitely book with Rachael again!”
About: I’ve had dogs ever since I was born, I love playing, walking and just handing out with them! Also i know the hardships it takes. I am a very available person, I do have a part time job but other than that I’m very free. I usually work a few hours every other day. I love going on runs which I enjoy very much to take a dog on, this could be a short walk or a hike! I’m very active but always love bringing animals with me even if it’s just to get a pup cup or play at a park!!! I currently have 3 dogs, and I watch my sister dog on occasion. My house has a fenced yard of an acre letting the 3 of them run freely. I’m very much for making an outside environment for dogs. But also believe in rest time. I usually spend time watching tv with my dogs or just laying with them
About: I have cared for animals since I was 10 years old! No animal is to big or small for me! Neighbors , friends , and family have relied on me to watch , bathe , feed , and play with their pets . I also have a 2 year old super active border collie and a 3 month old German Shorthair Pointer both are loved and spoiled! I am free during the week from 4:30 - 9 pm ! And 9am-8pm on weekends! I will send plenty of updates and pictures during drop ins :) I have two dogs a border collie and a German short hair pointer. We take regular trips to the dog park and love to hike!
About: I’ve had the responsibility of taking care of over 20 pets of my own since I was young. I have a deep love for animals and understand that each dog has its own unique pet care needs. I have the most experience with small dogs as I have one of my own. I am not afraid to work with dogs who pull on leashes. I can’t wait to meet your furry friends! I’m a college student but my schedule is very open and flexible. I come home often between class and don’t typically go more than 2hrs away from home. If you have questions you can message me directly I am always open to figuring something out! If a dog is boarding in my house he/she will get lots of loving attention and frequent walks :) I would like to meet the client and pet together for the first time before a service is provided. This way I can ensure the safety and familiarity of both parties, as well as learn about any important information about the dog I may need to know so everyone feels comfortable :)
“Cindy was reliable, responsive and took good care of our house full of cats while we were away. She sent pics and updates and even did a few dishes that were in the sink. We would have her sit again. Thanks Cindy!”
“Heather has taken care of my babies multiple times now and I cannot tell you how much of a relief it is to know that she is taking care of them while I’m gone. I love all the details and photos in the updates from her. She truly goes above and beyond to make sure my pets were cared for.”
“Caroline was awesome! She was punctual and friendly. My outdoor kitty had an injured paw that was on the mend, she checked on it to be sure it was still healing. My indoor kitty who is skittish around new faces even came out for some pets the second day! Thank you Caroline for taking good care of my fur babies and putting my mind at ease while we were out of town!”
“Selah did a fantastic job. This was our first time using rover and she did not disappoint. She kept me well informed of messes, updates and earned our dogs trust. She even picked up our trash cans when the wind blew them over. Highly recommend using her to care for your fur baby.”
About: Once I started college I began fostering cats and I completely fell inlove with them. I enjoy cats of all ages from the mamas to the baby’s to the elderly i appreciate taking care of them all. I am comfortable with administration of medication due to my training and tricks i have learned from fostering! Reach out with any question and thank you for the consideration
“I recently moved from NY to KY and was in need of someone to help care for my four dogs. I had spoken to many people and wasn’t comfortable with anyone as I had my prior dog walker in Ny for over 10 years. I found Tanika and she and I hit it off right away: she was super accommodating to my ever changing schedule. I was nervous to have my one rescue dog meet anyone because he could be unpredictable. Tanika came armed with treats and was relaxed and so easy going with all the dogs that he took to her first!!!! Tanika had been above and beyond amazing . She helps with my dogs that have medical issues and she is always there when and if I need her. She takes care of my dogs as if they were her own and I’ve never had to worry about them when I’m away. She is an absolute god send and I highly recommend her!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Bybee
About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them is something I truly enjoy. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, breeds, and ages. What sets me apart is that I provide a loving family environment where dogs are treated like members of the family. My home is full of attention, affection, playtime, and companionship. I understand that every dog has unique needs, and we take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I am comfortable following feeding schedules, administering most basic medications, caring for senior dogs, and helping reinforce routines and good behaviors. My two kids also love dogs and enjoy giving them extra attention and playtime, helping create a warm and welcoming atmosphere for every furry guest. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your dog is being cared for in a safe, loving home where they will receive plenty of attention and affection. 🐾 I am currently in nursing school only 2 days a week and my husband works for a healthcare company from home so someone will always be there for your pup. I treat animals as if they are my own children. I will keep them safe and satisfied while you are away so you can have a peace of mind wherever you go.
“Cheyenne took wonderful care of our Jax. He had a blast playing with her dogs and made a new friend, Romero. Her kids took to him right away. As labs do, he got muddy and she went over and above by bathing him. She sent frequent pics and videos of him playing. We will definitely use her again if we are in the area again.”
About: Spent whole life with dogs and cats. Am owner of service dog and work consistently with him daily; therefore, I can participate in any training your pet may be involved in. I am confident with all pets of all ages and happy to take care of your dogs and cats. I am certified cat and dog CPR/First Aid. I am EKU student on summer break so my current schedule is wide open. I plan to continue offering pet care services when school starts up again in the Fall. I have a large, well-fenced yard for your dog to play in, with a few nice shade trees as well. Love taking dogs for walks and our neighborhood is perfect for walking dogs. Dogs can also come inside to enjoy AC if it’s too hot outside. My dog + I are happy to come to your home also, to care for your pets.
“Selena was awesome with our puppy! She took great care of him, walked him a lot and he got to socialize with her dogs. He was also introduced to chickens and goats, every pups dream! She sent me a lot of pics throughout the day also. I'd highly recommend her!”
About: Hi! My name is Marianes and I truly love animals. I have experience taking care of dogs, including walking, feeding, and giving them attention and love. I am a responsible, patient, and caring person. I understand how important your pet is, and I will treat them like family. I will make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and comfortable at all times. I would love to help you take care of your pet! I am available during weekdays after the morning and I have a flexible schedule. I can adapt to your needs and make sure your pet gets the attention and care they deserve. I always make sure pets are safe and comfortable. I follow all instructions from pet owners, keep doors secure, and pay close attention during walks and visits. Your pet’s safety is my priority.
“Kayla has watched my senior dog several times now. My dog has massive separation anxiety, and Kayla is great with her. Harley seems relaxed when she gets home, which is usually a good indicator that she had a good day. Kayla is also an excellent communicator.”
About: I have been taking care of pets (as a job) since I was only 10 years old. I grew up wanting to be a vet (until I realized I'd have to put animals down) and decided to just take care of them myself in my own home! :) In college, I actually specialized in canine genetics if that tells you anything about my obsession. I have one Great Dane, for now, who I spoil rotten. I have also had experience training, walking, and grooming pets as well. I don't think I've ever said "no" to taking care of an animal, and that's saying a lot. I'm that person that always gets random emails, calls, and texts asking to watch their pets because of what they've heard. Dogs are my passion, truly, they are my life and get all my love! I'd love to help you out! I will care for your pets as if they were mine, always given top priority and unconditional love! I will only accept the booking if it aligns with what you need specifically :) My favorite feeling and compliment is your pets trust in me. Those words, “he/she must like you” or “they usually don’t warm up to people this quick” is what I live for! I LOVE animals and they know it, so no need to worry about if they’ll feel safe, as I’ll do everything in my power to have them enjoy every minute we spend together!
About: With your pets permission, they will be loved on. Pets in my care will be treated like family. I have been around pets of all kinds my whole life and have pet sat for over 5 years! The only days of the week where I’m out for more than 3 hours is Tuesdays and Thursdays. I am at home otherwise, the more time I have with your pet, the better! I do have two cats, so they will likely be separated from your pets in a boarding situation, but I live next to a dog park so it is easily accessible for pups. I have many cat toys and treat varieties as well.
“Jasper had a great time with Madison and her dogs. She texted me a picture of Jasper while she was watching him and let me know how he was doing. It was easy to communicate with her. I would leave Jasper in her care again.”
“Ollie had a great time! Brent sent pics and was a great communicator! If we're back in Lexington, we will definitely have Ollie stay here again!”
“Crystal was great and SO flexible! When I changed my plan based on a big group, she rolled with it. My dog was happy and tired coming home! Her family and home seemed wonderful and she was just very nice to work with. 10/10 would call on her again next time I come climb at RRG!”
About: I’ve owned multiple disabled dogs and can care for them. I’m also experienced in giving medicine to animals that may need it. grew up around a lot of different animals and I love spending time with new animals and seeing all the different dog and cat breeds. 😁 I stay at home and my schedule is very flexible, so the fur babies will get plenty of attention and love! They will always have me with them for some company and play time. For my personal comfort and safety, I currently book pet care with female clients only. Thank you for understanding! I can take care of pets in any way that their pet owner would like. I don’t have many rules and would just like for the fur babies to be comfortable in the new environment!
“Andrew has been absolutely wonderful with my little Charlie . Andrew is great at keeping open communication with pictures and updates on how the Charlie's daycare is going ..10 out of 10 would recommend.”
About: As a dog owner and foster, I have experience caring for senior dogs, nervous rescues, and multiple dogs at once. I prioritize individualized care, patience, and creating a stress-free environment. I work from home full-time, giving me the flexibility to provide attentive care, regular walks, playtime, and plenty of companionship so pets feel safe and comfortable. I believe consistency is important for pets, so I follow their established routine for meals, walks, exercise, and rest. I provide attentive care, patience, and an stress-free environment while making sure owners stay updated. I have a fenced-in yard for safe outdoor time and two senior dogs who are calm and friendly companions.

About: We came across the Cavapoo breed as our loving Rottweiler was on his journey to his “better place”. We chose the Cavapoo breed as our furry rainbow puppy to help us all with the tough loss. Fast fwd 5 years, and WOW, still can’t believe the journey that was created for us. Dog breeding, training, boarding and grooming just the way I would want my pups taken care of…in a home. Our setup is ready for all stages of dogs and of course, personalities. This is a small family business and we make pet care fit seamlessly into our lives. We’re a party of 4 and all hands are always on deck. 4:00 am wake up call during the week and 6:00 am on weekends. Caring for pets in our home can consist of taking your pets normal routine that’s already established and following it. Help keep your animal on a schedule of food timing to crate or bedroom boarding. We live in a neighborhood with a 6 foot privacy fenced in back yard. A 3,000 gallon Koi pond surrounded by 800 square feet of deck. Nice plush outdoor furniture for the dogs to lounge next to the pond after a drink. We have also built a 200 square foot doggie palace on our property. Full electricity with heating/air and additional ceiling fan. Great for rainy days or dogs who are lone rangers and/or feisty.
About: After experiencing the tragic loss of my own cats due to a negligent pet sitter, I became deeply committed to providing the highest level of care for all animals. That experience taught me how vital it is to entrust pets to someone who not only understands their needs but treats them like family. I specialize in senior pet care, offering compassionate support for aging pets, including administering medications, managing health conditions, and providing gentle, tailored exercise routines. I also have experience training puppies, helping them develop good behaviors early on and ensuring they have the structure they need to thrive. My focus is always on building trust and creating a safe, loving environment for your pets, so they feel comfortable and secure when you're away. Above all, I aim to offer peace of mind to pet owners, knowing their animals are in caring, responsible hands. Available almost anytime in Lexington and surrounding areas contact in advance is recommended but we can take last-minute calls depending on the situation and what not. Also I work with you budget! I have a park near me and I do take my own dog to the dog park every chance I get via Lyft and plenty of toys for your fur babies!
About: I’m 21 years old and have grown up around animals my entire life. I have hands on experience caring for a wide range of pets, especially dogs of all sizes and breeds. I’ve had dogs my whole life from Chihuahuas and Dachshunds to Pit Bulls and Belgian Shepherds so I’m comfortable with everything from small, high energy pups to large, working breeds. I still care for my childhood Dachshund and currently have a Belgian Shepherd, which has given me strong experience with daily routines, training basics, exercise needs, and attentive care. I treat every pet as if they were my own and focus on keeping them safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. Pet care is my full time job, so it’s fully built into my daily and weekly routine. This allows me to dedicate my time and attention to each pet’s individual needs, whether that’s walks, feedings, playtime, medications, or just extra companionship. Since this is what I do every day, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to provide reliable, consistent care and give your pets the attention they deserve. I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort in both my home and my clients’ homes. I carefully follow all instructions, maintain clean environments, secure doors and gates, and closely monitor pets to ensure they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for at all times.

“Tiffany walked our pups while we were on vacation and she did a great job. She kept us updated on the walks and how the pups were doing. We would definitely use her again. Thanks!”

About: I’ve been an avid animal lover since I was a kid. I have worked with and been around a wide variety of animals including cats, dogs, chickens, ducks, rabbits, fish, ferrets and more. Not only do my own animals rely on me for quality care, I have had the pleasure of caring for other animals while friends and family are away. Currently I am the owner of 4 dogs, 26 chickens and 9 ducks. Every morning before work I make sure all of my animals have food and water, as well as making sure my dogs get all of their daily vitamins and dental sticks. Additionally my dogs get monthly flea/tick prevention and heart worm prevention. Right now this will just be a part time job but I am hoping to expand and make this my full time and only job. Currently I have open availability on weekends as well as morning and night availability throughout the week. Caring for pets is a big responsibility and I take pride in knowing animals will be safe with me. At the beginning of booking with me I would set up a meet and greet to make sure your pets are comfortable with me. After doing so, we would begin services. During services I will make sure to closely monitor your pets, keep them leashed while not in a fenced in area, keep away from road ways and other - potentially dangerous animals. I would also ensure timely medication, feeding, and watering schedules.
“Alicia is not just dog walker, she really put in the work to form a fast bond with my pup and is always looking for ways to make or keep her happy and feeling safe. I guarantee it's my pup's favorite time of day when Alicia stops by.”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was a kid. I’ve cared for friends and families dogs of all sizes and ages. I currently have a female American bully but in the past I’ve had English mastiffs, pit bulls, and a border collie. I enjoy high energy dogs that love to run and play as well as older dogs that just want to play around and be loved on. I’m currently on summer break. I am an athlete at Eastern Kentucky University and have required practices every day but I’m gone no longer than 3 hours per day. I currently live in an apartment with a dog park on site I also have one friendly and very active pup to keep yours company. I will always be outside with the pups they are never out there alone.
About: I have cared for animals since I was 10 years old! No animal is to big or small for me! Neighbors , friends , and family have relied on me to watch , bathe , feed , and play with their pets . I also have a 2 year old super active border collie and a 3 month old German Shorthair Pointer both are loved and spoiled! I am free during the week from 4:30 - 9 pm ! And 9am-8pm on weekends! I will send plenty of updates and pictures during drop ins :) I have two dogs a border collie and a German short hair pointer. We take regular trips to the dog park and love to hike!
About: I've taken care of/had the pleasure of sharing my time with the following: dogs, cats, farm animals (horses, cows, chickens, turkeys), snakes, tarantulas and turtles. I've also cared for ill pets/pets with very specific daily routines. My wife and I currently have two loving, energetic dogs (2, 7) and three clingy cats (11, 11, 10). I'm currently very flexible with scheduling as I mostly do contract and-or gig work online. I'm available every day of the week, and generally any time requested. I'll ask questions to determine the level/frequency/type of care your pet requires, and will ask that you're specific in your requests. A meet and greet will be required, barring emergency circumstances.
“Sloane is an absolute gem. She is conscientious, dedicated, and thorough. She takes care of our basket-case of a rescue dog several times per week and has been our savior from the ridiculousness of his unending energy and anxiety while we’re away. Her report cards are filled with humor and have us laughing out loud every time. Cannot recommend her enough!”
About: With your pets permission, they will be loved on. Pets in my care will be treated like family. I have been around pets of all kinds my whole life and have pet sat for over 5 years! The only days of the week where I’m out for more than 3 hours is Tuesdays and Thursdays. I am at home otherwise, the more time I have with your pet, the better! I do have two cats, so they will likely be separated from your pets in a boarding situation, but I live next to a dog park so it is easily accessible for pups. I have many cat toys and treat varieties as well.
About: I have been training dogs since I was 12 and sitting for 6 years now. I find the most joy in being with animals of all kinds. My experience doesn’t stop at dogs. I have cared for cats, horses, chickens, ducks, bunnies, fish, and so many more. I am currently waiting for my next training in May 2027. I am excited to fill my time this way in between home improvement projects. My home is not conducive to boarding other peoples animals but I will happily care for them in the comfort of their own home where they are comfortable and have everything they need, while I pour my time and energy into them!
“Selah has been an absolute blessing to work with. She is kind, reliable, communicative, and genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. From the very first interaction, it was clear that she approaches her work with intention, patience, and compassion. My dog, Sable, was always well cared for and comfortable in her presence, which meant a great deal to me. Selah was respectful of schedules, attentive to details, and carried herself with a warm, trustworthy spirit. I would confidently recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pet with true care and integrity. God bless you, Selah, and thank you for everything.”
About: One of the hardest things to do is trust someone to care for your pet, to make them feel safe, and treat them as family members while you’re away. That is the care I strive for with every visit! Because being away from your hoomans can feel uncertain, I provide extra play time and extra love. I also clean up their messes—if there are any, and I’m happy to help with the occasional chore when you have to be away for more than a couple of days! I am also committed to working closely with you to provide tailored care and companionship. I provide clear communication, pictures of your babies with each visit. I bring experience caring for pets of all ages—from playful youngsters to wise seniors—along with expertise in administering medications and supporting animals with special needs. Note: I’m no longer able to offer boarding services. One of my own sweet boys is getting up in years—he’s a little more fragile, and a little less patient than he once was, and I worry that boarding a stranger would cause him a lot of unnecessary stress. I work from home — this allows me some flexibility and the ability to customize my breaks and lunch based on the needs of my clients. When caring for pets in the home of my clients, it’s important to remember that the little one that I’m caring for is likely stressed because their mom and/or dad are gone, and there is a stranger (me) in their home. With that in mind, I typically spend more time with them than what is required by Rover because they need the extra time to feel comfortable with me. I take time to try to get to know them and help them feel more at ease. I treat them with the same amount of compassion I want for my own!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 16. My friends and family have relied on me to watch and care for their best friends during overnight trips and weeks away from home! I’m currently working part time. My schedule depends on my clients needs! I’m usually open Monday through Friday depending on the week. My schedule is first come first serve. I’m willing to work with you to make your pet comfortable! I have a nice walking trail right next to my home to take them to! I also have a friendly little fur baby to keep you animal company. If I am watching your animal in your home, I will make sure to enforce any rules and provide play time with your pets in and outside of the house!
About: I've taken care of friends and families pets for the past 10 years, I've worked in pet retail for more then 9 years.

About: Spent whole life with dogs and cats. Am owner of service dog and work consistently with him daily; therefore, I can participate in any training your pet may be involved in. I am confident with all pets of all ages and happy to take care of your dogs and cats. I am certified cat and dog CPR/First Aid. I am EKU student on summer break so my current schedule is wide open. I plan to continue offering pet care services when school starts up again in the Fall. I have a large, well-fenced yard for your dog to play in, with a few nice shade trees as well. Love taking dogs for walks and our neighborhood is perfect for walking dogs. Dogs can also come inside to enjoy AC if it’s too hot outside. My dog + I are happy to come to your home also, to care for your pets.
About: I have had animals since I was very young. We have had two dogs and many cats in that amount of time! I often watch animals for my friends or family when they are taking short trips or vacations. With over six years of experience in pet sitting and walking, I've cared for a wide range of pets, from energetic puppies to senior cats. My services ensure your furry friends receive the attention, exercise, and love they deserve while you're away. Trustworthy and reliable, I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing peace of mind and happy tails. 🐾❤️ I currently am a student with classes three days a week! I will use pet sitting and other services as a side hustle while I am in school. I can care for pets in either my home or yours, whichever you are most comfortable with! Cannot wait to hear from you guys soon!
About: I discovered pet sitting back in the early 90s (pre-internet); I ran across an ad in the newspaper for pet sitters needed for a great lady that had a Pet Nanny franchise. That was the most fun, and most rewarding job. The most amazing thing I did while in her employ was help a Basset Hound regain the use of his legs. One of my twice-weekly duties was to go over to "Kip's house," and perform physical therapy - which was simply moving all four legs in a prescribed way, for a prescribed period of time. I was so skeptical that it could work, but diligently performed the movements. I left for the birth of my oldest son before Kip's therapy concluded, but with all the people Kip's owner had hired to come in and do this consistently over several months, I was delighted to learn that he began walking again. I stopped pet sitting with the birth of my first son. Now that our sons are both grown and gone, and we work from home and my availability is flexible, it's time to jump back in! I grew up with cats, and Labs. And all the snakes, toads, and other things I could find outside. I also love and have owned (and miss) horses. I've also raised Leopard Geckos and had various other reptiles, and snakes. We currently have two dogs, two cats, and a crested gecko at home. I'm available for cat sitting, dog walks, and drop-in visits. I work from home with a flexible schedule. Not available for overnights/house sitting, as my babies (husband included) need me. Being a home and pet owner myself, security, attention, and comfort are a top priority. It's vital to me to care for others' pets (and homes) as I would my own. I'm older, and neurotic about proper care and attention. I would love to hear about your routines, so I can know what they expect, and try to replicate as best I can.
About: I’ve had the responsibility of taking care of over 20 pets of my own since I was young. I have a deep love for animals and understand that each dog has its own unique pet care needs. I have the most experience with small dogs as I have one of my own. I am not afraid to work with dogs who pull on leashes. I can’t wait to meet your furry friends! I’m a college student but my schedule is very open and flexible. I come home often between class and don’t typically go more than 2hrs away from home. If you have questions you can message me directly I am always open to figuring something out! If a dog is boarding in my house he/she will get lots of loving attention and frequent walks :) I would like to meet the client and pet together for the first time before a service is provided. This way I can ensure the safety and familiarity of both parties, as well as learn about any important information about the dog I may need to know so everyone feels comfortable :)
“Emily has been walking our dog 3 times a week for a while now. She is reliable, and she's great about communicating any changes in her schedule as well as adjusting to changes in our schedule.”

“Butterscotch had a great vacation at Cheyenne’s! It was clear from the photos that she was very well taken care of and loved on lots! I super appreciated Cheyenne’s clear communication style and flexibility around my schedule.”
“Desha took care of our 2 dogs for a couple of days while out of town and we are so thankful of the great care she provided! She was so communicative and sent photos of the happy pups at bedtime and morning. Her cute kids also gave the dogs a lot of affection and the dogs loved that! I hope to book with Desha again in the future!”
“Elena is terrific and the experience keeps getting better each time she watches our pupper. This time our pup didn't even want to leave! If that's not a sign of proper sitter, I don't know what is. Thanks again Elena!”
“Our pups really enjoyed their stay with Kimberly and Steve - they played together and even slept in bed with them. We're thankful to have met Kimberly and Steve, and so are our pups!!”
“Erin and her husband were amazing!! They took excellent care of our dog, Nash, while we were traveling. He got numerous walks while staying with them and came home ready to nap (which is always nice when we are also coming back from traveling)! Would highly recommend and Nash absolutely cannot wait to stay with his new friends again!”
“Selena was absolutely wonderful! So many pictures and updates. We were so happy with all the continuous communication throughout our dogs stay with her. She is so nice and the dogs had plenty of outdoor time and play with her friendly dog! Would definitely recommend!”
“Andy did a great job helping Nate feel at home. Nate got snacks he likes and outside breaks that were on his schedule. Andy sent a lot of updates with pictures. Besides the cute pictures, Andy sent me a picture that showed Nate feeling relaxed. Frankly, I was glad Nate still wanted to come home! Andy understands dogs, has an appreciation for the variety of normal dog behavior, and really does love dogs. His daughter also really loves dogs. Although I found Andy through Rover, a mutual friend confirmed that he’s a dog lover and would trust him with her dogs. Knowing that we had mutual friends was literally an answer to prayer. I would definitely trust this family with Nate again.”
“Bret was amazing, took great care of my Velcro baby. I work nights & Bret was able to accommodate my last minute booking. He’s very thorough & kind. I know Dior had a great time spending the night with him & his family. We would definitely be booking again.”
“Madison was amazing!!! Ranger is a very energetic pup and he had the best time with her and her dogs. She worked with all my requests and sent tons of pictures. I would give 10 stars if I could!!! I will definitely recommend her.”
“Gloria was amazing with my Riley! I contacted her super last minute due to an emergency and she was very willing to accommodate our needs- she even gave him a bath! I cannot recommend her enough. We’ll be booking again with Gloria!”
“Ann was great with my little dog. She was easy to communicate with and answered my questions quickly. I was surprised to see Ann had 2 large dogs of her own. That’s on me, I should have asked if she had large dogs. I got really nervous about leaving Scruffy because his back has been injured a couple of times by larger dogs. Ann was very reassuring and took good care of Scruffy. She also sent lots of photos to help easy my mind. I will be using Ann again.”
“We went out of town for a week leaving our one year old Bulldog with Nef. He came to meet our dog and even accommodated transportation. My dog is very picky on who she likes however it was love from first sight. This was the first time we had to board our dog and now we have our go to person for life. Thanks Nef for the outstanding service!”
“Sandra is amazing! Our dogs loved their Holiday week with her. She frequently sent pictures and videos of them having the best time. She has a very big yard with lots of space for you fur baby to run around! Highly recommend!”
“Emily is always fantastic with our two dogs! We have one senior dog and one really active pattie mix, and she loves them both! We have already booked her for our next trip...10 days away!!”
“Eggbert had a great time! I could tell by his behavior and poop he was well cared for. I did get pictures and updates which was much appreciated. Will book again ❤️🎶”
“Victoria did a fantastic job with my dog! She lives on a beautiful piece of land with hobby barn animals as well as cats and dogs. As a trainer she knew the best way to introduce my dog to them. She was extremely responsive to messages as well!”
“Had a great experience working with Kathryn. She boarded my two large dogs for the night, she was friendly and easygoing, very responsive to messages and sent updates on how they were doing. They seemed happy and tired when I picked them up. I will use her again and high recommend her, thanks Kathryn!”
“Tonisha is great. I boarded my two dogs at her house for two days and she was very responsive and flexible before and during their stay. When I met her in person she was very kind and professional, and my dogs liked her right away. She sent multiple picture updates of my dogs outside playing or on walks which helped put me at ease. She is clearly very experienced with dogs and had no trouble handling my powerful Cane Corso or keeping my sneaky French Bulldog in line. My dogs were absolutely exhausted when they came home which tells me that they had a great time. I recommend Tonisha!”
“Went well, my pup seems happy and well taken care of. A little hard to communicate, but they were flexible with my pickup and drop off times. They took him to the dog park and on multiple walks.”
