“We had an unfortunate last minute out of town trip we needed to take and Carla was wonderful. She came to pick our Tucker up from home and took him to her house for a few days. On our way home we had some car problems but we kept in contact and she was graciously willing to keep him another night if it need be. I would highly recommend Carla, she’s great with our fur baby, always has a smile on her face but most of all- Tucker likes her and that says everything!”
“Our 2 dogs had an amazing time with Megan, Axel and the family. We appreciated the attention to detail of what our dogs needed, and the pictures sent of them.

About: Hi! I’m a college student with 7+ years of hands-on animal experience, I live in a home with 6 dogs and grew up surrounded by pets my whole life. Dogs and cats have always been a huge part of my life, and I genuinely love giving them attention, care, and comfort while their owners are away. I’m deaf, which has actually made me incredibly observant and attentive with pets. I’m very visually aware, patient, and always present with pets to make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and cared for at all times. Your pets will always have my full attention, love, and supervision! My references can be my own 6 dogs :) Taking care of pets is my full-time job as a college student home for the breaks. I enjoy taking care of pets at home, at the dog park, walking around with dogs, and making sure they have a fun time. I care for pets by following their routine and instructions given by owners, ensuring food, water, walks, and playtime, while keeping them safe, calm, and comfortable in my home.
“Ebony was a good communicator, very kind w our dog and gave us a nice note and special treats at the end. She sent us a video of our dog the first night and was quick to answer our inquiries about how he was doing. We would use Ebony again and highly recommend her.”
“Patrick was great! Prompt communication and plenty of picture updates on Guthrie, who looked to be having the time of his life. I swear Guthrie was positively beaming when I picked him up! The afterglow remains several days after.”
“It was my first time using Rover. My 8 year old dog had only ever stayed with family. Mariah was very nice and did a great job. She sent multiple updates and pictures during my trip and made me feel very comfortable with everything. I will definitely use her again 😊”
“Heather was absolutely fantastic. She was easy to communicate with and readily available for any questions. Our little guy had so much with Heather. She sent pictures and videos, daily, which was a nice touch. We will be booking her again. Highly recommend.”
“Sarah and her family were great taking care of our fur baby. I was really nervous with leaving her for the first time. Sarah made it easy. We got pictures and updates daily. We will definitely use her again. I think Piper was a little sad to leave her new friends”
“I had to find a sitter last minute and so happy I was able to find Cody. He was a great sitter, kept me informed and very down to earth person. This was my first time going through an animal sitter service but I will definitely book again.. with Cody ❤️”
“Ian was amazing! He stayed in contact with us so we knew our baby was comfortable and happy. She is older, deaf, and not used to being alone since I work from home. He dealt with her laundry list of specific needs and never missed a beat. She made a new friend and we will be using him again if we ever have another need for extended care.”
About: I’ve taken care of my own and other’s pets my entire life — and I know most people want this kind of experience for their pets. With a small sanctuary of my own, I know exactly what your sweet pets need while you’re away! Whether at my home or yours, they’ll be just like family to me. I have 5 years experience working and volunteering in animal shelters, making me a great fit for anyone wanting a sitter who knows what they’re doing and is willing to go above and beyond. I am starting remote work, and therefore have more time than I know what to do with! Taking care of animals is my passion, so your pets are my primary focus. I have years of experience with old animals and young, calm animals and ones with their crazy pants on — so any challenge that is thrown, I will be able to handle. Pets are our children, and you can trust me with yours.

“We’ve used Ashlea for our high energy puppy as well as our 2 cats and she did a great job! Even when the puppy has some excitement pee problems, no issues 😅 she’s very communicative, punctual, and even helped us out for extra house care duties because of an emergency. Completely dependable :)”
“Wonderful! Julia provided great service and peace of mind. I was put at ease with her immediately and did not worry about my cats during our week away.

“Joanna had been so nice and loving to our kitties when we were away. She paid attention to every detail and took great care. She spent good time playing with my cats, petting them and giving them lots of love and attention. I was able to put my mind at peace, trusting Joanna with my fur babies. Totally recommend her. ❤️”

She sent us pictures during the stay so we could see that they were doing well. She made our vacation so much more relaxing knowing our pets were well taken care of. Will definitely use her again in the future.”

“Jared and Waverly were so nice and great care givers. I loved that we video chatted in advance to meet and ensure a good match. They were super flexible and very easy to communicate with. We, and Glory, thank them for making us all very happy!”
“I’m so happy Bear had a great time with this sitter, she was amazing at being available short notice and took very good care of my dog. I highly recommend this sitter!”
About: I have helped raise a bottle fed kitten and cared for a senior beagle in his last year. I care for and adopt mostly adult dogs, but I haven't met one I don't like! I work from home, so my schedule is flexible to fit in lots of home visits with overnight stay possible! I have my own dog that goes out 3 times a day already, so fitting in pet care is a breeze! I have an apartment with 2 bedrooms where dogs can sleep separate from my own dog. My complex is very dog friendly with all pets on leash, and large areas to sniff and poop as well as a park & track in walking distance.
“Jewels was amazing with Mya and this was our first time getting a sitter and she eased my mind with leaving her. Mya had the best time and came home so happy!”
About: I have experience fostering for the humane society. I have a German shepherd at home and used to own a Siberian husky. I have fostered both puppies and kittens I work from home full-time so I can give your pet plenty of potty breaks and give them a walk on my lunch if needed I have a fenced in yard that your dog can play in. I also live close to a park that we can go to. I have a friendly German shepherd who likes to play with other dogs. I will treat your pet like they are my own and let them make themselves at home.
“We were traveling through town and needed care for our dog during the day as we ventured out on the bourbon trail. Rachel was extremely accommodating and we felt at ease leaving our dog with her. This is the first time we have used Rover and would highly recommend Rover and Rachel.”
“Kimba had a great time with Sarah. She took great care of Kimba and sent pictures throughout the day. Sarah is very responsive and makes me feel at ease. Kimba has a lot of separation anxiety and it was clear from the photos and when we picked her up that she’d had a great day. I know Kimba was in good hands with Sarah. I’d use her again next time we are in town.”
About: I have been an animal lover all of my life. I used to work as a professional dog-walker. I have provided a loving home for cats and dogs over the years. I have experienced the pain of trying to find the perfect sitter for my own pets.... not too expensive, and will provide the perfect loving environment for my fur babies. I strive to provide that for you and your fur babies. I currently work from home except for 2hrs each weekday, so I will be available to let them out in the fenced yard, walk them, play ball with them or just snuggle them. I also have 2 dogs of my own that I play with all day. I have a fenced yard and two fur babies to keep your dog company. Pets are treated as family and will be treated how you would treat them in your own home. We can crate your babies if that is what they are used to, or they may free roam the house as long as they are house trained. I have 2 children who will spoil your pup with snuggles and play.
“Eliane was so great! Bumi seemed like he had lots of fun and was well cared for. She was great at communicating and letting me know details of Bumi's stay when I picked him up. Would definitely have her watch him again!”
“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.”
“Kimba had a great time with Kaitlyn. She took great care of Kimba and sent pictures throughout the day. Kaitlyn is very responsive and makes me feel at ease. Kimba has a lot of separation anxiety and it was clear from the photos and when we picked her up that she’d had a great day. I know Kimba was in good hands with Kaitlyn. I’d use her again next time we are in town.”
“Colin was absolutely amazing! I found him on short notice and he was super accommodating. I have a yorkie puppy who seemed to play fabulously with his Yorkies. Pups came back super tired from all the play time all while Colin kept me up to date with photos throughout the day. Highly recommend and will use again!”
About: I’ve had pugs for over a decade and a French bulldog briefly. I’ve sat for my friends and cousins corgis, golden retrievers and Boston terriers. Love the snores, the drools, and cuddling with them. Dogs are always welcome on my furniture and in the bed. I enjoy pampering them with belly rubs, butt scratches, massages and just goofing around with them. I work different jobs and at times have flexible schedule. Also I work close to my home so it’s easy for me to come home and check on the guest doggies at home if needed. I stay in a condo building and I can walk them (on leash) around the condo. My condo complex has a nice walking path for dog walks and it is a fairly quiet with very little traffic. Plenty of green space around. I have a small fenced in private yard too.
“Alycia was amazing and Bosey loved her. She was wonderful and accommodating. She sent photos and videos throughout the day. Her home is perfect for dachshunds because steps aren't good for Bosey's back. I am so grateful for her.”
About: I have experience with pets and can groom walk and play with them. I am very good with pets I love them. I’m so excited! I am a college student and I am off school right now. I have plenty of time to help out anyone that needs it please I would take them out and also make them comfortable if they are staying overnight. Regular meals and fun walks. Also fun playtime with them
“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.”

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Hills and Dales
About: I've been surrounded by dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, turtles, frogs and fish for 35+ years. I've raised, house-trained, walked, entertained and loved a variety of dogs and cats my entire life. I never get tired of these sweet creatures! I have experience with all dogs and cats, regardless of age, breed or temperament. As I'm now only working part-time providing early intervention services for children, and am self-employed, I have a great deal of flexibility to care for your dogs and cats. I'm available for drop-ins to feed, play with and care for your sweet pets as needed - throughout the day and night - as well as dog-walking, as it fits into your schedule. I've spent the last 20+ years working as a teacher and developmental therapist, educating children who have developmental delays and disabilities. Now, I've decided to focus additionally on my love of animals. Since I was a small child, I've adored pets, and have many years of experience caring for a variety of them. I'm very patient and appreciative of each animal's personality. I currently have 3 dogs and 3 cats of my own, and have used this service as a customer as well, so I can understand your point of view as "parents".
“Kat is amazing! She is prompt, responsible, communicates well, and is great with my dog. She consistently brings him back well exercised and happy! Highly recommend! I am grateful to have found her and feel pretty lucky—and my dog feels the same!”
“awhh!!! she eased me nerves so good! she spent the extra time with my baby letting her play and get to know her!! my dog has a ton of anxiety and they are besties now!! so pleased with this experience!”
“Lauran was fantastic while I was visiting Louisville for the Kentucky Oaks and Derby weekend. Her communication was top notch, always quick to respond and kept me updated throughout the two days. I especially appreciated her flexibility when I needed to add an extra walk at the last minute, she was incredibly accommodating and handled it without any issues. It’s a huge relief to find someone so reliable and easy to work with when you're visiting another city for an event. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a professional and adaptable walker!”
About: Hi! My name is Alex and I'm a lifelong animal lover! I’ve had dogs all my life but learned so much more when I started fostering in 2014. Over the years, I’ve raised four dogs of my own, fostered 8 dogs for three different rescue organizations in Kentucky and Ohio, and continue to volunteer with local rescues. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I genuinely love getting to know each pet as an individual—whether they’re energetic puppies, mellow seniors, or anywhere in between. I work second shift during the week and occasional Saturday’s. This gives me time in the morning to work with the pups and get them nice and tired for an afternoon nap! Crate training is an important part of my philosophy with dogs and I try to make sure they’re comfortable and safe. Your pet will stay in a safe, loving home that has a fully fenced back yard for secure outdoor time. I also have spare rooms if your pup needs space and time away from others when in new environment is needed or if they do not do well with stairs. We have three friendly resident dogs: Auggie (12 years old Staffy mix) Sgetti (5 years old husky/shepard mix), and Fern (7 months old rough coat American hunt terrier). I carefully manage interactions to ensure everyone is comfortable and safe, and I will always prioritize your pet’s routine and needs. Whether your pet needs a day of activities, reliable walks, or a cozy and calm home-away-from-home, I’ve got you covered.
“Taylor is awesome. He was so good to my dogs. He walked them & played with them. He is great with animals. He is reliable & dependable. He helped me with a lot of things like fresh water & feeding the dogs. I'm asking him to continue helping me.”
About: I have traveled extensively through India and Central America and now that I am back home full time, I want to try to do all the things that I love to do, but I never had enough time to do. One of those things is taking care of my favorite animals. I love dogs and that is something that I want to experience as much as I can. For that, I just finished fencing my large backyard so I can accommodate my small or big friends. I am very active and playful....so I am excited and looking forward to having a fun time with my new friends. Hopefully you will find my house nice, welcoming, peacefully and large enough for your dog. I work from home, so your pet will have my full attention. I am active and energetic, so if needed your pet will have a good amount of activities I have a large fenced backyard and I can crate your pet if needed. Walks in the neighborhood or local park is always part of my day
About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life—ever since I was a toddler, there was always a dog or cat by my side. I have a special soft spot for dogs and cats, friends and family have trusted me to care for their furry family members while they’re away. I have hands-on experience with senior dogs, including administering medication with patience and care. I work full time but on weekends I’m free any time to walk or stay overnight with your 4 legged family members. During the week Monday - Friday I’d be available to walk your pup between 10:00am-12:30pm. I’ll be sure to care for your kitty or pup and all of their needs are taken care of. I’d be happy to uphold any routines or necessities while you’re away. I’ll be sure to give them all the love and care. Also feel free to let me know of any quirks your fur baby has.
About: Experience with dogs of all ages, sizes and temperaments. Have owned as many as 5 at one time, as well as fostering dogs, cats and kittens, including a special needs beagle with degenerative myelopathy (he had a cool wheelchair :) . I love them all and will care for them like they are my own. I will scratch and play and provide belly rubs on command. If I sit for your dog in my home, my cat, Frankie, will just roll her eyes and move on :) I am happy to work with the schedule you prefer for your furry kids, even if it's not the same as mine. Please contact me with questions, I am happy to chat first so we are both comfortable. While I no longer work from home, I still have plenty of time to care for dogs in my home, as I have done for my own dogs 😊 I have a fenced yard and a special “dog room” with toys a few different sized crates for when they need some space from my cat 😊.
“Definitely not our last time working with Tabitha. She was wonderful! She’s punctual, thorough, great with animals, friendly, and trustworthy. Will be contacting her again.”
About: My name is Brittany and I just moved to Louisville, KY with my fiance! We are getting married in September and are trying to save up for our honeymoon. We have a super sweet male 6-year-old golden retriever named Milo who is dying for a friend to play with. He is great with small and big dogs. We would love to help take care of your pup when you need it. We have a fenced in yard and live in a great neighborhood for walks. I work from home so I have plenty of time to let your dog out multiple times a day and to take 2-3 walks a day. I have a fenced in yard and a golden retriever named Milo to keep your pup company. My dog is spoiled to say the least and gets lots of exercise and attention throughout the day.
“Taylor did amazing with our pets. Our pup is very dog reactive and Taylor used her extensive experience while navigating walks with her. She has quite a charm with animals. She even coaxed out our hermit cat. Taylor did a fabulous job communicating with us and keeping us updated. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and experienced Rover.”
“Julie has been amazing walking our pups!! Great communication and she sends wonderful photos! One of our dogs gets nervous around people sometimes, but she's been comfortable with Julie straight from the start 😃”
About: Pharmacy tech, very knowledgeable and familiar with administering medication to animals.* I’ve been rescuing animals since I was 8yrs old, I have a lot experience with young animals as well as senior care. I’ve never met an animal that I wasn’t able to make comfortable and build a bond with! I’m currently a stay at home mom, my baby would be next door at my parents during boarding. I’m excited to get the opportunity to enjoy your furbaby while being able to provide for my baby❤️ Depending on your preferences, I’d enjoy being hands on with your furbaby. I enjoy going for walks and runs. Lots of play time and engagement
About: I have taken care of pets for family, neighbors, and friends since I was a teenager! I have lots of experience for all pet sitting needs! I work a part time job, so I will be available to play and show love to your fur babies most days of the week! I will care for your fur babies in the most comfortable way for them. I will care for the pet according to instructions from the owner!
About: I am a doctoral candidate in Biology at UofL, so you know I'm good at organization and scheduling! I think my time as a graduate student has sharpened my reasoning and communication skills as well. It's also increased my animal handling experience (mice)! I've had pets my whole life, mostly cats and dogs. My most recent pet is an elderly shi tzu with a surprising amount of energy! Apollo is a very skiddish cat, but we've definitely earned each others' trust. I can drop by to check on your pet, take them out for a walk (if weekday, must be before 10am or after 5pm, can be flexible), check on them periodically to feed them, or house sit (weekends only). I am a grad student, so I'm usually busy during weekdays 10am-5pm. Most of my work now is away from the bench, so I can be a little flexible about those hours Weekends are generally open! I love in an apartment that doesn't allow animals so I can't keep any here. I can however watch your furry friend at your house or take them on walks around the neighborhood!

“We had to find someone last minute to watch our dog Leo , I came across this website and started to read reviews , and if they would take a large dog like Leo. Most sitters didn’t take dogs that wasn’t neutered, or they wouldn’t take him because of his breed. Then I came across Grace’s profile and read all the amazing reviews and read about her history with animals etc , so we knew she was the one. Leo has never been with anyone else besides my fiancé , son & I but as soon as we dropped him off he was already loving it and grace. She kept us updated the entire time with pictures and letting us know how Leo was doing. He loves her big backyard and I just know he loved it at Grace’s house. She was very sweet and you can just tell how much she loves and cares about all animals. 10/10 would recommend Grace and we need a dog sitter again we know who to call ☺️”
“Eliane was amazing!!! She made us feel so comfortable and provided regular updates with great photos. She took our dog on long walks and spent quality time with her throughout our trip. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch our dog!”
“Angela made Sophie one of her family for over two weeks. She sent lots of pictures every day and it was obvious Sophie felt at home. We were afraid she might not want to come home.”
