“I unfortunately had to put my baby girl to sleep the evening before our trip and did not get to use the service paid for in advance so cant review on the actual stay but Janet seemed very nice and great at communicating and was eager to take care of Rosie if she wouldve made it.”
“She was absolutely amazing, caring, loving all into one. This was the first time my dog was away from me. It was hard on both of us. Stephanie was awesome she did all she could to make us comfortable. She has the most cutest well behaved dogs as well. I would definitely use her again for dog sitting. It’s very difficult to someone with your fur baby, I am so happy I found her.”
“Tina was great with our 2 dogs who stayed for 1 night. Her communication was excellent and she sent updates and pics during their stay. We will be happy to have Tina watch our boys again in future.”
“Popsie settled in quick and was comfortable while staying with Francesca. She doesn’t normally eat while we’re away but she actually ate this time around. I received daily pics and videos. I didn’t have to worry about Popsie at all.”
“I appreciate Abigail accepting my booking and consistently communicating with me regarding my boy Archie. She sent me updates and pictures and actually spending time with him. She accommodated a last minute schedule change and was very kind in that exchange as well. I already expressed that I would love to use her again whenever we need another sitter.”
“With last minute notice, Kimberly was able to assist and watch Holly for the week. I do not think I have had a better dog sitter for boarding in the almost 12 years I have had Holly. You can tell Holly was happy to be with Kimberly! Thank you so much for the love and care you provided for Holly and the communication, knowledge, and professionalism with us. You are amazing, Kimberly!”
About: I have been pet sitting since I was 12 years old and have experience with all different types of animals: dogs, cats, horses, reptiles, and small animals like chinchillas, hamsters and birds. In addition to pet sitting, I have a long work history in the vet field working as a veterinary assistant, so I am able to administer medications and work with senior dogs or dogs with disabilities. I also have extensive dog training experience from training pets in basic obedience to task trained service animals. I absolutely love animals, and love helping other families with their amazing pets. Dog training and boarding are my full time jobs, so I am always around to ensure your pets have the absolute best care. Meaning lots of play time, time outside, and tons of cuddles. I myself have four very well behaved and friendly dogs at home, one being my medical alert service dog. I also have a dog room set up specifically for pups, where they can play or take a nap on huge dog bed. Ruffland Kennels are available for crating as well if your pet is crate trained. While our yard is not fenced, Dogs are always leashed or on a long line and supervised while outside. I also have a slat mill and dog pacer treadmill to provide plenty of exercise during inclement weather. I can also provide plenty of enrichment via puzzle toys, lick mats and kongs which is important for mental stimulation.
“Maria is an amazing sitter and I will be referring all my friends to her. She always makes gays very happy! He is always in a great mood when I drop him off and happy when I pick him up. And when I am away she updates me daily.”
“Scott did an amazing job caring for our pup. This was our first time boarding our dog and we were worried how he would acclimate to a new environment. Shortly after drop off, Scott sent us a pictures when he introduced our dog to his, letting us know it went smoothly. We really appreciated this, and it gave us peace of mind. We can’t recommend Scott enough!”
“Lynne watched our little girl for 4 days and 5 nights while we were on a trip. She texted me and sent me pics of my dog to let me know how things were going. I would recommend Lynne to anyone.”
“Melody made our first time use of Rover a great experience! We were travelling in from out of town for a wedding and Melody made it easy to dropp off and pickup our dog. Great service and overall experience!”

“I wish I could give Jeannette more than 5 stars! Jeannette agreed to watch our indoor/outdoor cat and keep an eye on our chickens while we were away. I had no idea she had never been around chickens before—you would never have guessed! We had a hen sitting on a nest and had calculated that the eggs would hatch after we got home... we were wrong! While we were away, several chicks started hatching. Jeannette didn't panic—she jumped right in. She went out and bought supplies, made sure the chicks were cared for, and handled everything like a pro, even hatching 4 chicks at her house. She also completely won over our cat, who now seems to love her more than us! Jeannette went so far above and beyond anything we expected. She treated our pets as if they were her own, kept us updated, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were gone. I recommend her with my highest recommendation. If you're looking for someone who truly cares and will go the extra mile, Jeannette is the one!”
“Michael and Elizabeth have been fantastic with my cat, they’re incredibly communicative and I always come home to a happy and well looked after kitty. For a particular trip they were so flexible as I sorted out a key mixup and were incredibly patient — they’re the reason I can stay stress free on vacation. They’re my go-to for watching my pet when I’m out of town.”
“Jennifer is extremely trustworthy and truly exceptional as a pet babysitter. She has taken care of my pets countless times, providing the best quality care. 10/10 recommend her.”
“Tabitha took great care of my 2 cats. I came back to their food and water full, and the little box clean. I received texts and pics everyday so I knew they were doing good. Thank you Tabitha!”
About: I’ve had cats all throughout childhood. Feeding schedules, playing with little toys and my favorite lasers lol. I have experience with cutting nails, brushing, cleaning etc. I have experience with cats that are young, old, sick and healthy. I had a cat growing up who was ill so I learned how to give medication and injections and I am comfortable doing so if need be. Overall I just wanna provide the best care for your family.
About: I’ve had pets my entire life, so I love to help take care of them and love on them! I’ve also looked after plenty of animals for family and friends when they’re out of town, with one family friend having me come back to dog sit for them for the last three years! Right now, I’m home from college for the summer, and don’t have a job, so my schedule is pretty free unless I have an appointment or other things going on on a certain day! I don’t offer boarding for pets in my own home unfortunately, but for my clients, I will make sure all their needs are met and more, playing with them and making sure they’re doing great before I leave for the day.

“Thank you for taking such great care of Tesla. We appreciated the updates and photos you sent while he was with you and would feel very comfortable leaving him with you and your family again.”
“Jamie was amazing with my high needs, attention-seeking cat. She made sure he he took all his meds and got some cuddle time. Dude got into pelts of trouble learning how open cabinets and such and Jamie was super sweet about letting me know and gathering up items he played with! Jamie is overall the best - highly recommended her!”

“Definitely 5 stars! If I could choose 10 stars, I'd choose 20. Couldn't ask for a better place for your puppers to go! Stephanie and her family took such good care of my Russell. He never eats when I'm gone and he ate for Steph and then didn't want to leave 😃 Steph, thanks again for everything! You guys are the best!”

“Cristaylee was amazing with our puppy I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER for anyone looking for a sitter. She stays in contact with you all day with pictures and videos etc. If I need a sitter in the future will most definitely make her watch our puppy again!”
“Rhiannon was wonderful! I was moving and she watched my pups for day care while the movers came to the house. Her puppy Ruby is adorable and very friendly. If I wasn't moving out of the state, I would use Rhiannon again.”
About: **If you're new to Rover here's my promo code for $20 off your first request SAMANK93051** Animals make the world a better place. I love being able to work with animals so much. They just make my day brighter. I couldn't imagine life without them. Being able to work with animals every day is a dream come true. Not only do I enjoy doing this so much for myself but my 2 kids and my husband love doing along my side. We all make a wonderful team taking care of fur babies. Your fur baby will always be treated as if they were our own baby in our care. While you are away we will gladly take over on loving on them! I have had the pleasure of working for Rover for 3 years now. Working for Rover I have been around all kinds of fur babies from huge to tiny, from picky eaters to will eat anything lol. Working for Rover has given me the experience to know what to expect when caring for a baby since I've done it so much. I also have been caring for pets of my own for 9 years now. But have grown up around all kinds of animals. My first born son is a Doberman Pincher and he is a pretty big boy. He is the best dog ever! He's is like my shadow and follows me everywhere I go. He's great around other dogs. He will sniff like crazy but after that he just wants to play and go get his blankey. We live in an apartment and getting exercise isn't as easy as it is with families with a yard. But can't let that stop us. I make sure my baby gets the exercise and outside time he wants and needs. So I have made it my duty to help dogs who have the same or different obstacles in their way of enjoying there natural desire to be outside and to get the exercise they need to stay healthy. I am a huge dog lover and will go above and beyond to make sure a dog is happy, seeing them happy makes me happy. My dog has always been there for me and made me happy when I needed him, the least I can do is be there for all animals who need my help in making life more healthy and fun! I am available any day or time during the week and weekends. This is my only job and I am pretty flexible and willing to work with drop off and pick up times. I don't have a yard because I live in an apartment. But I can't let that stop me, I take my dog out to walk and play probably more than I should because we dont have a yard. He is a big boy and exercise is very important for him to stay healthy. So we go for long walks and I have a little yard outside my patio for emergency potty breaks. I also live right by the floor wall so we tend to walk it a lot my dog absolutely loves going up it. I am currently not working any other job so your doggy will be my main focus. I am available any time during the week and weekends just give me a shout and we will make something work. I live in an apartment so I walk my boy to go potty, play, or walk. I have a yard in front of my patio if we have a potty emergency. It is not fenced in so I will NOT have your baby off leash ever. I also can easily crate your baby in my XL crate if need be. E

About: My animal experience goes way back to childhood. At the age of 7 I started in 4h, learning about animal husbandry. By the age of 13 I was volunteering at the local riding stables. By high school, I was working at the local animal shelter, volunteering with local rescues and advancing my education in dog training, with hopes of getting into service dogs. At age 19 I started working at a vet clinic This just advanced my love of animals and their care even more! Fast forward to today, and I own my own in home grooming salon ❤️ I have continued to volunteer with the local rescues and shelter every chance I get. 2 years ago I was blessed with the opportunity to become a puppy raiser for a veteran service dog foundation. That was the very best experience i could of asked for! My knowledge of dogs extends into training, grooming and care. I'm knowledgeable with cats and other small animals as well! Coming from a farm and vet background, I have experience with just about every animal including exotics. My personal dogs are all very well socialized with other animals of all kinds. They all have extensive training and are completely safe with others. They know just how to make our new guest feel right at home! All my boarder dogs are treated as family, allowed on beds and furniture and cage free unless otherwise requested. Bath or grooming add ons are always available! All baths/ grooms come complete with a cute Pic! Please feel free to reach out with any questions ❤️ I work from home in my at home grooming salon, so your pet will never be alone. Should I need to leave the house for small errands, there is still someone left at home, or the animal will have a safe enclosed room to themselves. My Backyard is attached to the house and fully enclosed with a large wooden privacy fence. Pets are never left outside unattended and are kept in my view at all times.
“Great setup to ensure safety of all the dogs. Was a great experience and the pup seemed to have enjoyed the safe atmosphere. Appreciated the report card at the end with all the pictures.”

I enjoy going for walks and runs. Lots of play time and engagement

About: I have many years of experience caring for friendly dogs of all sizes and personalities.

Their care is simple but important, and I always keep their water, food and space clean and safe. I work part-time, so I have flexible availability during afternoons, evenings and weekends. Your pet will always receive attention, affection and the routine you request. I currently work part-time, which allows me to have a lot of flexibility to take care of and play with your pets.

About: I spent my whole life around cats and dogs. I even helped take care of neighbor pets when they were out of town. Now as an adult I have four cats (Maya, Millie Gracie, and Hank) and 3 dogs (Koda, Skye, and Duke). All of them are spoiled and treated just like my kids. Our family has fostered for the local animal shelter and rescue groups. Some of our fosters were injured, pregnant, new mom with babies, and sick ones needing nursed back to health. As a family we also travel and so I understand the need to have not only reliable but caring and trusted care for your pets. I can guarantee that I will provide that. Im currently a stay at home mom and can be flexible to accommodate your schedule as much as possible. I do have a school age kid so I work around getting them to and from school. I can feed, walk, play with, and/or clean up after your pets at your home. I also can administer oral or topical medication as well. I will treat your home and pets as I do my own home and pets.
About: My Grandmother was a Colorado State award-winning dog trainer and I grew up helping her care for her three Belgian Tervurans. I've owned several dogs throughout my life as well. I have a history of volunteer work at shelters and have cared for a wide range of dogs! I have three kids aged 3, 4, and 7 who have grown up around all types of animals, including dogs of all sizes. Currently, we have one ferret, one cat, and we just rescued a puppy! We are extremely active with our animals and play with them throughout the day! My wife and I both work 35 hours a week on opposite schedules so one of us is always available! We have separate days off so 5 days a week, one of us has the day off. Outside: We have a large fenced in back yard with only one exterior entry point which is double gated. The double gated side yard is where we usually meet the owners when they come for pick up. The double gated entry way provides protection from escape artists🤣 We have a large metal container that we use as a water trough that we fill with ice water 3 times a day to keep all dogs well hydrated! We have lots of dog toys for the back yard as well. Inside: Dogs sleep upstairs on the main floor, but during the day, they have full access to the house and back yard. We do not provide kennels but will use one if the owner brings one. Dogs eat at the same time we eat. We send LOTS of pictures and updates throughout the day!
About: Hey there! I’ve had animals and pets all throughout my childhood. I have always been passionate about animals. Our fur baby’s really are a huge part of our family. We are an active family so being outside a lot is important and we love to share that with animals. We go on walks and hikes a lot we even bring them on lake day adventures and my favorite… camping trips! I can clip nails, give baths, brush coats throughou and I have experience with giving injections and medications. I love to play with pups fetch with a ball or tug of war with their favorite rope toy! I am very observant, organized, adaptive and willing to to learn anything about your furry friends! I’m currently a stay at home mom. I am the sole caretaker for your furry family members! My son is 2 years old and will be accompanying me with drop ins and dog walking, he will be under my supervision at all time while providing animal care. I take full responsibility for my son while we care for your furry friends. He is comfortable around animals, we’ve had dogs and cats in our family since he was born! We live a very active lifestyle where we are always on the go. We go for walks and hikes a lot. We also enjoy swimming, and we always bring our fur baby along for the adventure. Pet care would fit perfectly with our schedule and lifestyle, with the love of being outdoors it’s so nice to share that time with our 4 legged friends! I do not have a fenced yard at my house, I always stay with my puppy weather on leads or ecollar. We have an electric fence but I ensure nothing can come into our yard(other animals, people etc). If we do not use the electric fence we use a long lead. At a clients home if they have a fenced yard I would still never leave an animal unattended, that’s just me personally. I would love to spend time with your pets outside, maybe we can play a little or if your fur babies just wanna soak up some sun and relax, I’m here for it all! If the client does not have a fenced yard I would use a long lead or regular leash and never leave the pup pup unattended. For safety both in my own home or clients I utilize a crate if necessary, and positive reinforcement for good behavior! I also have experience with muzzles and other tools(collars, leads, head leads, etc) Its not only about protecting me and others but to ensure the safety of the animal as well. I want to do what you need me to do to ensure the safety of your pets. I want peace of mind and communication for everyone! Don’t be afraid to advocate for your pet, let’s talk!

About: Grew up in an animal loving household my whole life. Love to rescue, hardworking and passionate. Worked at a pet store, and take care of all types of animals at home! Love helping people and would love to help with animals :) Ive worked with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and reptiles. Very calm and patient so no matter the behavior of the animal, I try my best to make sure they’re comfortable and taken care of! My dog is deaf and blind, so no matter what, Im not going to discriminate towards any disability the animal may have. I’m very easy going and have a flexible schedule! Any questions Im fine to answer. My step mother worked in an animal hospital so she’s taught me a lot, I just love animals!
About: Hi! I’m Alison, but most people call me Alie. I’ve grown up around pets my whole life—everything from hamsters, guinea pigs, and rabbits to cats, geckos, and of course dogs of all sizes. I’ve raised dogs from puppies all the way through their senior years, and I’ve also adopted shelter dogs. My early experience comes from helping at the animal hospital where my mom worked, and that taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, and compassion in caring for animals. I’m 41, have a teaching degree and I work full time. Outside of work, I spend most of my free time with my own dog, Sammy. We go hiking, kayaking, walking in the woods, and even out on the river together—he’s truly part of the family. That same love and dedication is what I bring to caring for your pets. ⸻ My Care Style • I treat pets like family, making sure they get plenty of love, attention, and activity. • I follow your pet’s routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. • Walks, playtime, and enrichment are always part of the day. • I can take pets on fun outings like park walks, trips to Lowe’s/Home Depot, or pet stores if requested. • Safety is a top priority—I drive a mid-sized SUV with a hammock in the back seat to protect pets during travel. ⸻ Availability • I work on Ft.Knox, I can walk and/or do check-ins on weekdays if you live on post (weekends also of course) • I live in Elizabethtown, I can assist in the surrounding areas before or after work hours, on my way to and from work • Weekends not limited and can accommodate anything including house sitting. ⸻ Helpful Info I’d Like to Know To provide the best care, I ask pet parents to share: • Any food or toy aggression triggers • If your pet dislikes being touched in certain areas • How they behave with kids, loud noises, or other pets • Whether they’re comfortable in new environments or around stairs • Any allergies, health issues, or special routines The more I know, the better I can make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. My daily schedule can be modified to fit your pets needs. During my work hours, typically 8-4, I can check in and/or walk your pet multiple times per day if you’re located on Fort Knox or right outside of the gate. I’m available for services early in the morning and late in the evening, and no limit or extend on the weekends. I don’t care for my dog, or any pet, like typical “normal” people do. I treat all animals as if they’re my own. I’m super flexible and can accommodate any need or request, even if you think it’s sounds crazy, super odd or outlandish. I have a mid sized SUV and I use a hammock in my back seat to prevent injuries in the event of any accidents.
“Anna does such a fantastic job with our puppy, Willie. Sometimes I think he actually loves her more than me! ;) Definitely give her a shot at taking care of your critters! I can not recommend her enough!”
About: I have been pet sitting since I was 12 years old and have experience with all different types of animals: dogs, cats, horses, reptiles, and small animals like chinchillas, hamsters and birds. In addition to pet sitting, I have a long work history in the vet field working as a veterinary assistant, so I am able to administer medications and work with senior dogs or dogs with disabilities. I also have extensive dog training experience from training pets in basic obedience to task trained service animals. I absolutely love animals, and love helping other families with their amazing pets. Dog training and boarding are my full time jobs, so I am always around to ensure your pets have the absolute best care. Meaning lots of play time, time outside, and tons of cuddles. I myself have four very well behaved and friendly dogs at home, one being my medical alert service dog. I also have a dog room set up specifically for pups, where they can play or take a nap on huge dog bed. Ruffland Kennels are available for crating as well if your pet is crate trained. While our yard is not fenced, Dogs are always leashed or on a long line and supervised while outside. I also have a slat mill and dog pacer treadmill to provide plenty of exercise during inclement weather. I can also provide plenty of enrichment via puzzle toys, lick mats and kongs which is important for mental stimulation.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my whole life. I grew up on a farm, and love all animals. I watch my friends and families dogs regularly; walking, feeding, and bathing their four legged family members I do work from 8-330 Monday-Friday, but have an 1.5hour lunch daily, and always have free time after work.

About: I’ve had pets my entire life, so I love to help take care of them and love on them! I’ve also looked after plenty of animals for family and friends when they’re out of town, with one family friend having me come back to dog sit for them for the last three years! Right now, I’m home from college for the summer, and don’t have a job, so my schedule is pretty free unless I have an appointment or other things going on on a certain day! I don’t offer boarding for pets in my own home unfortunately, but for my clients, I will make sure all their needs are met and more, playing with them and making sure they’re doing great before I leave for the day.

About: Hi my name is Savanna. I’m not going to say I am better than other sitters. But with my knowledge of animals and how they need to be treated, I would never do anything to make an animal feel unsafe in its home. No matter what because their feeling’s matter and they deserve the respect and love everyone else does. I am currently working part time and in the mornings so I will have the time to make sure your pets are taken care of. When in a clients home I will make sure to abide by the clients rules and how they prefer their fur baby is cared for.

“I unfortunately had to put my baby girl to sleep the evening before our trip and did not get to use the service paid for in advance so cant review on the actual stay but Janet seemed very nice and great at communicating and was eager to take care of Rosie if she wouldve made it.”
“Popsie settled in quick and was comfortable while staying with Francesca. She doesn’t normally eat while we’re away but she actually ate this time around. I received daily pics and videos. I didn’t have to worry about Popsie at all.”
“I appreciate Abigail accepting my booking and consistently communicating with me regarding my boy Archie. She sent me updates and pictures and actually spending time with him. She accommodated a last minute schedule change and was very kind in that exchange as well. I already expressed that I would love to use her again whenever we need another sitter.”
“With last minute notice, Kimberly was able to assist and watch Holly for the week. I do not think I have had a better dog sitter for boarding in the almost 12 years I have had Holly. You can tell Holly was happy to be with Kimberly! Thank you so much for the love and care you provided for Holly and the communication, knowledge, and professionalism with us. You are amazing, Kimberly!”

I never worried once about whether my baby was safe.”

About: Hello. My name is Hailey. I just graduated basic and AIT as a Combat Medic and will be staying in the area until I go to college late May. I am home all day everyday. I love animals and am willing to doggy/cat sit anytime any day. I have 3 dogs myself and love cats. I am patient and I have no trouble with bigger dogs and will provide service to the best of my abilities. I can also baby sit if needed. I currently unemployed as I will be leaving for college in late May. I am available all day everyday and can stop by at anytime to feed, potty break, or walk dogs and cats alike. I will not be able to house animals in my own home because it is my parents house. I am more than willing to doggy sit in my clients home and/or walk them around their neighborhood. I follow directions to a T and I am physical myself so I always enjoy a good dog walk and don’t mind walking bigger dogs that may need a little extra confidence.
