“Booking was so easy. The people who kept my Ladybug were so loving and caring, I never once worried about her. They sent photos everyday of her playing and having a great time. Thank you so much!”
“I was happy with Scott and Melissa taking care of my kiddos. They were a new sitter since my previous one had to move. Always nervous finding a new one but they were very welcoming and Toshi had friends to play with. I received daily updates with pictures so I could see they were doing well. A nice sized yard to play and they settled in pretty quickly, especially my introvert Calli. I felt my kiddos were safe with them. I’ll be using Scott and Melissa again since they are now my trusted sitter.”
“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!”
“My maltese, Lily, stayed with Julie and her son. They were wonderful in every way! She sent me daily texts and cared for her like she would her own. Excellent experience! Highly recommend!!!!”
“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!”
“Beth was amazing with my dog!!! She sent plenty of updates with photos so I knew my dog was happy and healthy. I really appreciate the time she took to ask questions about my dog’s preferences and behavior prior to agreeing to watch her! Beth is amazing and very kind”
“Crystal was a fantastic host for our girl. She was very responsive and shared pics with us daily. The household was a welcoming place and we would recommend her to anyone looking for a temporary home for a furry friend.”
“Cassie was great! She was very flexible and caring. It is obvious that she adores animals. Our Cavalier has a great time. She had such a great time she didn’t seem all that excited to see me when normally she goes crazy when she greets me. Cassie shared a lot of pictures of our girl making friends with her family and various pets. I would definitely use her again if we come back to Bardstown again!”
“Stephie is friendly reliable and knowledgeable. When my dog came down with a stomach bug she communicated with me and was very patient with him. I love how she sent me multiple pictures everyday and kept me up to date on his daily activities. They have a fenced in back yard and plenty of space. Her home is also super clean. Thank you so much stephie for taking such good care of my baby and i look forward to booking again in the future!!”
“Sharon did an excellent job watching our senior dog! She and her dog Wesley were super friendly and extra accommodating. Sharon sent frequent updates & pics and even bathed him one day when he needed a refresh. Sharon’s yard is perfect for dogs, very safe & fun to explore or sunbathe. Sharon also plays relaxing music for your dogs. Talk about a dog-cation!! You will not be disappointed booking Sharon, she is a highly skilled Dog Sitter and great with humans too!”
“Heather is amazing! Lacey loves to stay with her and she always meets new friends. We can tell by Lacey’s demeanor when we get home that she feels comfortable and secure with Heather! We already have her booked for our next adventure.”
“I CANNOT say enough good things about both Rick and his fiancé Annemarie! They were God-sent ANGELS for our wedding weekend! We were out of town - all of us were - and really needed someone who could keep Millie for us. Even though they stayed a half hour away, they were above-and-beyond accommodating, staying flexible with our schedule as things changed on our end. They came and picked her up from us, brought her back for rehearsal the same day so my nephew could practice walking her down the aisle, took her back home. They sent me pictures of her and their dog Buckley all throughout the weekend and she looked like she was having fun, getting good sleep and was comfortable. When Annemarie brought Millie to my wedding, she came dressed up to blend in with the other guests and I never heard Millie bark the whole time. She stayed around in the hot heat for pictures so Millie could be in a few pictures with us before taking her back to their home. Finally, they kept her through an extra day for us so we could have a little breather time before we had to pack everything up at our hotel room and head back home. We could not have made it through our wedding weekend without Annemarie and Rick's help. All of their story-sharing about what Millie was up to with Buckley all weekend was so nice to see intermittently as we were busy buzzing about doing our wedding activities. We are so GRATEFUL for everything they did and it's clear Millie was well taken care of and comfortable because she was so calm and relaxed when Rick returned her to us! Truly extra sweet! Thanks again for everything!”
“Gabriella was a terrific host for my boy Jax. She gave me many updates with pictures and videos and met all Dietary needs my 10 year old pup needed. She is very nice and friendly and her dog Yeti is very friendly and happy to see other dogs. My dog tends to have some anxiety but the atmosphere was so positive for him he was playing with toys and her dog Yeti in no time. I highly recommend her for any services you might need for your dogs. Thank you for taking great care of my boy I appreciate it!”
“Dan is amazing!! She went above and beyond and gave multiple updates each day with photos and how my cat was doing. Dan cared for her like she was her own and was very attentive to my cat’s needs and quirks. She was always on schedule with feedings and changing the litter. My cat thoroughly enjoyed spending time there and was living her best life! I will definitely Rover with Dan again. I would highly recommend Dan to care for your pet!!”

“We absolutely LOVED Cassie!! Our kitties just loved her & you could tell she just loved them too! You could tell she loves her job & animals. She is very personable & easy to talk to. She also is very trustworthy. We will use her again & again. You can’t go wrong with getting her to take care of your babies. ♥️”
“Fantastic, had to book last minute and he saved us from cancelling our trip. Also cleaned up my dogs mess when she puked instead of leaving it like most do. Very much appreciated.”
“Couldn’t have asked for better! She was reliable, communicated great, and was very thoughtful and thorough. She handled everything we asked of, and more. She truly went above and beyond and we are so grateful for the peace of mind she brought us while we were on vacation and worried about our cats :)”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 13 years old and have always had a deep love for animals. Over the years, I’ve helped rescue and care for many pups, giving them a safe, loving, and happy environment. Since high school, I’ve also provided trusted house sitting and pet care for families in my neighborhood, gaining experience with dogs of different sizes, breeds, personalities, and routines. I currently have two large dogs of my own, so I’m very comfortable handling bigger breeds, high-energy pups, feeding schedules, long walks, playtime, and maintaining consistent routines. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away, and I always treat every dog like family. I’m dependable, attentive, patient, and highly communicative, and I make it a priority to keep owners updated with messages and photos for peace of mind. Whether it’s dog walking, overnight house sitting, administering basic care, or providing companionship and attention, I’m committed to making sure your pets feel loved, exercised, and stress-free in your absence. I am currently home from college for the summer and have plenty of free time during my day to take care of your pups! I am available to walk your doggo anytime during the day and want to make this process stress-free. If there is a time that your pup does better walking, I want to make that possible for you. For dog walking and pet sitting, I focus on creating a safe, fun, and comfortable experience for every pet. During walks, I make sure dogs get the exercise, attention, and stimulation they need while also prioritizing safety and positive behavior. I’m comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and energy levels, including larger breeds, since I have two large dogs of my own. For pet sitting, I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I make sure pets feel comfortable, loved, and relaxed while their owners are away by giving them plenty of companionship and attention. I’m dependable, patient, and highly attentive to each dog’s individual needs and personality. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident knowing their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for.
“We had a wonderful experience with Isaac! He watched our three dogs—Cadance, Roman, and Roxi—and took excellent care of all of them. Cadance can be quite the handful (she’s our spoiled little diva), but Isaac was incredibly patient, kind, and professional the entire time. He dropped in twice a day to let them out and made sure they were fed breakfast and dinner. We also really appreciated the daily pictures he sent—it gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It’s clear he truly loves animals and knows how to handle different personalities. We felt completely at ease knowing our pups were in such great hands. Highly recommend Isaac to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter!”
“Shelby is our go to for cat sitting! She does an amazing job and gets me fun pictures every time 😂😂 my cat has even started to recognize her and will come out and say howdy when we watches her.”
“Brittney is my go-to cat sitter, my cats are so much calmer and happier when she has cared for them while I am away. She is trustworthy, reliable and easy to reach. One of my cats is very shy but comes out for Brittney. My other cat gets a medicated cream on her ear and Brittney has made sure she gets this medication. And she takes wonderful pictures! 😻😻”
“AMAZING! Will totally use Ashley again. She is the sweetest and would highly recommend. She gave updates, cute pictures and I had a very relaxing vacation and was able to fully trust her with my fur baby! Thanks Ashley!!!”
About: I’ve been taking care of cats for several years, including my own. I love discovering their uniqueness and attitudes. People have relied on me to feed, water and play with their cats. I would love to help with yours as well!

“Rylee took such great care of my dog Knox! He has separation anxiety, but he adjusted quickly in her calm and welcoming home. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. She sent regular updates with photos and videos, which I really appreciated. Knox looked relaxed and happy, he clearly felt comfortable with her. I’ll definitely be booking with Rylee again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter on Rover!”
About: 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.
About: My first dog was a Golden Retriever, and I was hooked! I wanted a career working with dogs and was a dog groomer at a boarding facility for 20 years, working with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personality types. Several of my grooming clients also boarded in my home. Personally, I’ve raised puppies and adopted seniors, so have experience with training and administering medications. I’ve started a second career and now work from home. My office has three dog beds, and my little dog is waiting for a friend to come over! My yard is small, but fenced, and I can take the furry friends out as often as they need to go. If your dog prefers a walk-about, I can accommodate that as well. Please note, due to my insurance I cannot accept Staffordshire terriers, pitbulls, or bully mixes of any kind. In addition, although the Rover weight class is 16-40 pounds, I only accept dogs that are 25 pounds or less. I want your dog to feel at home in my home! I’m happy to send you pictures during the day, or FaceTime you. I can administer meds, and will adhere to their own feeding/walking schedule. Because I work from home, your dog will have constant companionship. I have a ten pound Boston Terrier who loves playing with other dogs, but I’m in a three bedroom house, so there’s plenty of space if anyone needs time apart. My dog stays in my office with me when I’m working, and your dog can too! If your fur baby does not need constant supervision they would be free to roam around the house. I also have two crates if needed. My fenced yard is great for potty breaks, and I can also do leash walks, either with my dog or only yours if preferred.
“We were in town on vacation to visit distilleries. Cassie set up a meet n greet the Sunday before our visit and did a wonderful job showing us around. Day of was easy and Charlie had a great visit. Totally recommend to everyone”
“Bella spent the afternoon with Taylor and it couldn't have gone better. Taylor is very warm and welcoming and immediately makes you (and your dog) feel right at home. Bella had a wonderful time playing with her friends in this pleasant environment and I felt good leaving her with someone so caring and competent. I would highly recommend her to everyone looking for a sitter for their pet. Also loved the pics.”
“Julie provided outstanding daycare for our golden retriever, Beau. We were visiting the area and needed a place for him to stay while we explored a distillery that didn't allow dogs. Julie replied to my message quickly and we worked out a day schedule. She provided us with photos of Beau while we were gone and our pickup was smooth. Beau was very happy and relaxed. I highly recommend Julie for dog daycare.”
“Megan was lovely! She was willing to watch 3 dogs for our family fairly last minute and was super gracious. We let her know our mild concerns about our dog's anxiety and she was very kind and we knew not to worry. Great opportunity, very flexible within reason and sent us some nice checkin messages to let us know how our dog was acclimating. Great experience!”
“I’ve never had such a wonderful experience with someone watching my dogs and that includes family! I feel like both of my dogs were very loved and cared for even after they caused shenanigans!! You ever need someone to watch your dogs this is the place to go!! I work at a hospital so drop off was really early and pick up was late and they had no issues working with me.”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals all my life. I have vet tech experience, and dog training experience. Animals are a huge passion of mine. Sometimes I like them more than people 😉 I have a completely open schedule. I do work for myself so I can always work around yours and my schedule to give your furry family members the care and attention they deserve. I know how to read the body language of animals. I know how to give medication. I can do anything for your pet that you normally do.
“Simba was so happy and had so much fun. Susan was great sending pictures throughout the day, it gave me so much peace of mind. I could tell Simba felt loved throughout his stay.”
“Courtney was very professional and had good communication. She invited us in and introduced her family. She has a fully fenced in back. She also provided a complete pee/poop/eat/nap report. Daisy seemed very happy. We'd definitely use Courtney's services again.”
About: I cared for (and spoiled) many relatives' pets when they went on vacation through the years. I also lovingly cared for my elderly parents for over a decade. I am a creative and crafty person, and I enjoy painting, sewing, and gardening. Being home most of the time, I would enjoy the company of furry friends! I only use natural cleaning solutions in my home; pets are provided filtered water. Common sense safety precautions that would be taken with any pet or with small children are implemented.
“I cant say enough good about Catherine. She is extremely professional and she has a true passion and love for dogs. And it shows. I had a vet appointment set for Willow that I needed to reschedule and Catherine offered to take her! That to me is just awesome. Catherine really is great at what she does and I would not hesitate to use her again.”
“Winston apparently had so much fun playing outside with other dogs. He crashed on the way home. Melody is great! She is very detailed on his day. Great first time. Will most definitely book Melody again & again.”
About: I am an animal lover by nature and a pet sitter by choice. I have trained my own dogs. I've been involved with several rescue groups and fostered many animals. I work 5 hours a week outside the home and my husband works from home so your pet will not be alone. I'm available Monday thru Sunday and drop-off/pick-up times are very flexible (a.m. or p.m.). Don't want to board your pet at a kennel? I would love to keep your fur baby while you're away. Your dog(s) will be kept inside with us like part of our family. I will care for your pet just like my own. Prefer only 1 - 2 at a time so I can spend more time with each one and give your pet all the love and attention he/she will need while you're gone. I will strive to keep your pet healthy, happy, and comfortable just like they were at home. (I'm near Mt. Washington)
About: I am an avid pet lover, who would much rather have 4 legged friends than 2 legged ones. I have been taking care of dogs and cats at my house for the past 8 years as well as pets of very close family members and friends. My dream when I get older is to have a rescue operation where I can watch all sorts of dogs and cats in need until they find a good home. Animals are my passion, and I want to share that passion with you. I am now done with college so I have all the time in the world to watch your adorable pets for ya. I am open most of the day and can easily work around plans so you can have someone there to take care of your little precious animal(s). My dogs at home get daily loving's and exercise not only from me, but from my family. I do not have a fenced in back yard so when the weather is good, I try and get their legs stretched and give them a chance to sniff every blade of grass within 1 mile of my house:) I am willing to work with dogs of all ages, breeds, and weight. You tell me what you want done, and I'll see to it that it gets done. There is nothing more fun than giving some love back to those who love you unconditionally.
“Look no further, Renee is a GEM! My husband and I were RVing in Kentucky and needed a dog sitter at the last minute. Renee not only took Beans in last minute but truly is amazing with Dogs! Beans had so much fun she was so sad to leave! Thank you so much Renee! If we are ever back in Kentucky we will be reaching out!”

About: I love animals and will treat your fur babies as if they were my own. I will communicate consistently and send photo updates on visits. I do work full time, my current shift schedule is 9-5 Monday through Friday. Weekends are always free unless I have military obligations, my schedule will reflect accordingly if so. I have two cats who roam around the house as they please. Security is important to me and I always double check doors and ensure nothing is out that may pose a threat to anyone in the house.
About: I have taken care of animals most of my life. I have had dogs, cats, rats, snakes, lizards, and turtles as pets. I’m currently down to two cats, Ivan and Chuck so would love to spend some time with your dog or puppy! I currently work from home part time so I have a lot of flexibility with my schedule. I can walk morning, afternoon and nighttime, but I’m home all day to keep them company. I live in a neighborhood with lots of sidewalks, a park and a large backyard . Can also crate a dog if that is your preference.
About: I bring over 30 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. I’ve owned, trained, and cared for dogs my entire adult life, giving me a deep understanding of canine behavior, body language, and individual needs. As an active person, I tailor walks to each dog-whether they need a calm, structured stroll or a high-energy adventure. Safety, consistency, and positive reinforcement are always my top priority. I offer flexible scheduling with open availability for morning, afternoon, and evening walks, including both weekdays and weekends, to fit your dogs routine with consistency. I will respect your home and follow all care instructions, prioritize safety, secure doors and leashes. I also provide calm, attentive care in familiar environments.

“We have been using Isaac recently to walk our two lab puppies a bit here and there to get them more socialized and used to walking on a leash. I was a bit hesitant at first handing over my babies to someone we didn't know, especially because they can be a handful at times, but Isaac has really put me at ease. He is so patient with them and shows a caring attitude. One of our babies can be a bit rambunctious sometimes and Isaac has shown his willingness to work with her when needed. And again, his patience! He takes time to try and reinforce commands while on the walks, makes me feel comfortable handing over my babies to him. He's always professional and polite, on time, with a good attitude. I recommend Isaac to anyone needing someone to assist with their fur babies. He gives me pointers when needed or asked, and seems to treat the girls like family when he's with them.”

“Angela is a lifesaver! I have been working extra at the hospital every weekend due to Covid and her coming to walk my dog every morning that I work has been priceless. Her positive, upbeat and energetic attitude is just what my 8 month old Labrador needs after being in the house all night. And with my hurt back, just what I need after a 12 hour shift on my feet. I haven't used Angela for other services yet other than dog walking, but when I need them, she'll be the first one I ask. She is punctual, responsible, considerate, full of energy and always puts a smile on my Sochi's face!”
About: I’ve been working at an animal hospital for almost a year. I’ve worked with all kinds of dogs, cats, and other exotic animals. I’ve also worked with their different sizes, ages, diets, medications, etc. I’ve got a dog and 3 cats currently. I also frequently pet sit for family and friends, often overnight or over the weekend. I love to go on neighborhood walks with my dog to make sure she gets her daily exercise in. Also playing outside and enjoying the nice weather. I’m available to let dogs go on as many potty breaks as they need! For my cats, I love playing with them and seeing all the different toys to make sure they never get bored. I’ve also done my fair share of cleaning, no matter the mess, I’ll clean it up! I am a college student with at most 3 classes a day. I can do early mornings and then evenings/afternoons. During school breaks, I’ll be available all day. There may be the occasional days where I’m busy or out of town, but more likely than not I will be free and not busy. I will most likely ask the pet’s owners what they prefer on things like going outside, for walks, and other daily routines. I will constantly be checking in on the pet and making sure they’re doing okay. If anything were to happen, I would immediately contact the owner to come up with an action plan and see what they would want to do, depending on the situation. I would make sure that the home is safe and that there is nothing that the pet could get into that would hurt them.
About: Hi, I’m Aden! I’ve been around animals my whole life and grew up caring for two dogs, two cats, and several fish tanks, so I’m experienced with many different needs and personalities.

Animals tend to warm up to me quickly, and I always treat them like family, so you can have peace of mind while you are away My schedule is somewhat set in stone, I work weekdays from 6:00am–4:15pm and some Saturdays from 6:00am–4:15pm, which means I’m available most afternoons, evenings, and weekends to care for your pets. I’m committed to making sure they get the attention, walks, and playtime they need outside of my work hours. When I’m caring for pets in your home, I make their safety and routine my top priorities. I carefully follow feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any specific instructions you provide to keep things consistent and stress-free. I always keep an eye on doors, leashes, and environments to ensure your pets stay safe, whether we’re indoors or out on a walk. I’m also comfortable providing extra care if needed, such as administering medications or handling special routines. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pets are well cared for while you’re away.
About: I have been taking care of pets for members in my church for years. I have also worked at a pet store that took care of and sold animals to their furever homes.

About: I’ve grown up in a home full of dogs and have been caring for them for as long as I can remember. Today, I have a sweet female Goldendoodle of my own named Murray, who’s a big part of my life.

About: I used to be a Rover sitter while I was in Nursing school several years ago. I've taken a break while working and having kids but I'm excited to help out again! I currently have two kids (4 and 6) that would come along with me to drop in visits or walks. They are very comfortable with animals and know how to be calm and gentle too. We love helping get energy out, playing, going on long walks and giving lots of pets and love. I'm a homeschool mom so we are usually home 5 days a week and I'm usually working as a nurse 1 day on the weekend. My kids and I always take our own dogs on walks, so we would love to take a long walk with your dogs, play with them and give them lots of pets!
About: I recently lost a my childhood dog of 15 years. She had epilepsy, heart issues and many other conditions that required strict medicine routines and monitoring. I recently rescued a cat and have been loving being a cat mom. Throughout my teenage and adult years, friends, neighbors, church members have relied on me to care for their pets. Further, my sister is a veterinarian and I have enjoyed learning things from her over the years. I am very energetic, enthusiastic and patient when it comes to the care of your pets. I consider my pets a part of the family, and I will feel the same about your pets. Life is so much better with pets! Being patient, reliable and flexible is very important to me. My goal is to take away any stress you may have about the care of your pet! Your pet will become my top priority. After all, fur babies are very special to each household! Thank you :) I work full time M-F, 8-4, but I work from home so have a lot of flexibility throughout my day to care for your pets in whatever way you need! It is very important to me to spend time with the pets I’m watching, not just a quick feeding and potty break. I will look forward to playing with, loving on and hanging out with your babies in addition to their basic needs.
About: I've been working with animals for over 15 years through veterinary assisting, animal shelter volunteering, dog obedience and agility training, and caring for my own pets. I've worked with dogs of all ages, breeds, sizes, and temperaments—from energetic puppies to senior dogs and pets with medical or special needs. I'm experienced with crate training, potty training, administering oral medications, caring for anxious and fearful dogs, and maintaining consistent routines that help pets feel safe and comfortable. I believe every dog deserves individualized care, so I take the time to learn their personality, preferences, and daily routine. Safety is always my top priority. I closely supervise pets, use positive reinforcement, understand canine body language, and create a calm, structured environment where dogs can thrive. As a full-time stay-at-home mom, I'm able to provide plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, potty breaks, enrichment, and affection throughout the day. You'll also receive regular photo and video updates, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away. I treat every pet like a member of my own family and strive to make their stay as stress-free, fun, and loving as possible. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent care throughout the day, including potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, medications, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I carefully schedule my day around each pet's individual needs to help maintain their normal routine and reduce stress. I have availability on weekdays, evenings, weekends, and holidays, and I do my best to accommodate last-minute requests whenever possible. Whether it's a quick drop-in visit, a walk, or overnight house sitting, I strive to provide dependable, attentive care and keep pet parents updated with regular photos and messages. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my highest priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, medications, and any medical conditions, anxieties, or behavioral quirks before every booking so I can provide consistent, individualized care. In your home, I respect your pet's established routine and environment, helping them feel secure while you're away. I closely supervise pets, use positive reinforcement, follow all instructions carefully, and ensure doors, gates, leashes, and harnesses are secure at all times. I'm experienced administering oral medications and caring for puppies, senior pets, and dogs with special needs. During walks, I prioritize safety by using secure leash handling, avoiding unsafe situations, and adjusting our route and pace to your dog's age, energy level, and comfort. I also provide regular photo and video updates, so you'll have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and receiving the same love and attention I'd give my own.
“Deshawn did a great job walking our pups for us over a multiple day period. He is very nice and enjoyable to chat with, but perhaps most importantly, the dogs love him and got very excited when he showed up to walk them. Thanks again Deshawn!”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals all my life. I have vet tech experience, and dog training experience. Animals are a huge passion of mine. Sometimes I like them more than people 😉 I have a completely open schedule. I do work for myself so I can always work around yours and my schedule to give your furry family members the care and attention they deserve. I know how to read the body language of animals. I know how to give medication. I can do anything for your pet that you normally do.

“I was happy with Scott and Melissa taking care of my kiddos. They were a new sitter since my previous one had to move. Always nervous finding a new one but they were very welcoming and Toshi had friends to play with. I received daily updates with pictures so I could see they were doing well. A nice sized yard to play and they settled in pretty quickly, especially my introvert Calli. I felt my kiddos were safe with them. I’ll be using Scott and Melissa again since they are now my trusted 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!”
“Beth was amazing with my dog!!! She sent plenty of updates with photos so I knew my dog was happy and healthy. I really appreciate the time she took to ask questions about my dog’s preferences and behavior prior to agreeing to watch her! Beth is amazing and very kind”
“Cassie was great! She was very flexible and caring. It is obvious that she adores animals. Our Cavalier has a great time. She had such a great time she didn’t seem all that excited to see me when normally she goes crazy when she greets me. Cassie shared a lot of pictures of our girl making friends with her family and various pets. I would definitely use her again if we come back to Bardstown again!”
“Stephie is friendly reliable and knowledgeable. When my dog came down with a stomach bug she communicated with me and was very patient with him. I love how she sent me multiple pictures everyday and kept me up to date on his daily activities. They have a fenced in back yard and plenty of space. Her home is also super clean. Thank you so much stephie for taking such good care of my baby and i look forward to booking again in the future!!”
“Heather is amazing! Lacey loves to stay with her and she always meets new friends. We can tell by Lacey’s demeanor when we get home that she feels comfortable and secure with Heather! We already have her booked for our next adventure.”
“I CANNOT say enough good things about both Rick and his fiancé Annemarie! They were God-sent ANGELS for our wedding weekend! We were out of town - all of us were - and really needed someone who could keep Millie for us. Even though they stayed a half hour away, they were above-and-beyond accommodating, staying flexible with our schedule as things changed on our end. They came and picked her up from us, brought her back for rehearsal the same day so my nephew could practice walking her down the aisle, took her back home. They sent me pictures of her and their dog Buckley all throughout the weekend and she looked like she was having fun, getting good sleep and was comfortable. When Annemarie brought Millie to my wedding, she came dressed up to blend in with the other guests and I never heard Millie bark the whole time. She stayed around in the hot heat for pictures so Millie could be in a few pictures with us before taking her back to their home. Finally, they kept her through an extra day for us so we could have a little breather time before we had to pack everything up at our hotel room and head back home. We could not have made it through our wedding weekend without Annemarie and Rick's help. All of their story-sharing about what Millie was up to with Buckley all weekend was so nice to see intermittently as we were busy buzzing about doing our wedding activities. We are so GRATEFUL for everything they did and it's clear Millie was well taken care of and comfortable because she was so calm and relaxed when Rick returned her to us! Truly extra sweet! Thanks again for everything!”
“Gabriella was a terrific host for my boy Jax. She gave me many updates with pictures and videos and met all Dietary needs my 10 year old pup needed. She is very nice and friendly and her dog Yeti is very friendly and happy to see other dogs. My dog tends to have some anxiety but the atmosphere was so positive for him he was playing with toys and her dog Yeti in no time. I highly recommend her for any services you might need for your dogs. Thank you for taking great care of my boy I appreciate it!”
“Dan is amazing!! She went above and beyond and gave multiple updates each day with photos and how my cat was doing. Dan cared for her like she was her own and was very attentive to my cat’s needs and quirks. She was always on schedule with feedings and changing the litter. My cat thoroughly enjoyed spending time there and was living her best life! I will definitely Rover with Dan again. I would highly recommend Dan to care for your pet!!”
“Was our first time booking/ leaving our high energy pup with someone while we went on a trip. I'm sure it wasn't easy! But our dog looks well taken care of. Communication was very fast. They gave us a sweet gift as well.”
“Worked with Angela only. She was communicative, professional, and I trust them. Everything worked out great, Theo is back home, happy, and in good health.”
“As always, our dog loves hanging out with Elizabeth and Phillip. I know he can be a handful but they don't seem to mind. Really appreciate their patience.”
“Ryo was great with Piper. They provided updates and pictures throughout our trip. I could tell that Piper enjoyed himself as well, upon his return home. I will definitely refer Ryo to other friends and family looking for a sitter.”
