Personalized care for your dog or cat - Orell
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Orell
“They were absolutely amazing with my dog, Charlie. From the moment we dropped him off, they were kind, patient, and super understanding. You can tell they genuinely care about the dogs they watch. Charlie was comfortable with them and that gave me a lot of peace of mind. They kept me updated and were very attentive to his needs. I’m really grateful for how well they treated him and I would 100% trust them again. Highly recommend!”
“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.”
“We love leaving our Maggie with Heather. It’s like a vacation for her while we’re on vacation. She gets to run and play in Heather’s backyard. She’s so happily and tired when we pick her up. We couldn’t be more pleased! 😊”
“My dog had a blast with Aspen and her family. She sent me a ton of pics and updates. It’s so relieving to not have to think about him at all while I’m out of town.”
“Ebony was great and Hux had a wonderful time. It's evident how much she cares for the pups in her care. She sent videos and Hux came home worn out after having fun with friends.”
“Crystal was very caring and involved with Dollie! She recognized that she was timid at first and gave her extra attention and encouragement to relax & settle in, which she did! Crystal gave lots of feedback and sent pictures and even video of Dollie! I would be happy to have her watch my ‘baby’ again! Clair T.”
“My dog Oban came home after 7 days and was calm and happy, not clingy! He was treated as a member of Elizabeth and Philip’s family. I feel so fortunate to have found Elizabeth and Philip! Thank you both!”
“Dawn did an amazing job taking care of my fur baby. We were gone for a week and she made sure to update me on how my baby was doing through texts and photos. She even cuddled her and bought treats when she wasn’t eating the ones I brought. She and her husband were amazing caregivers for my sweet fur baby. I never worried once about whether my baby was safe.”
“Reservé con Nelson el cuidado de mis mascotas por 7 días, realmente hizo un excelente trabajo, Kira y Linda fueron acogidas como suyas. Todos los días recibía fotos y vídeos de ambas donde se mostraban alegres. Gracias Nelson sin dudas volvería a contratarte para que cuides de mis mascotas.”
About: Taken care of and lived with multiple family dogs since I was a child but I’ve taken care of my own dog personally for the last 7 years. I currently only work 3 shifts a week so I am available to take care of and board your pets! I have a lot of free time which means your pet will have all the attention and love they desire. I live in an apartment, which means I have no fence in the yard, but there is a lot of open grass area near me.
“Sydney had such a good time vacationing with Melody and her family - Melody sent us daily pictures and updates about how she was doing and I had no worries whatsoever the whole time we were away. She ate well and was given her insulin injections twice daily without any issues, which is a wonderful as sometimes she doesn't eat as well when she is staying away from home. I highly recommend Melody to anyone who needs a furry family member sitter and I certainly plan to be calling her again the next time Sydney plans a vacation.”
“We were first time Rover users and Beth was super accommodating and patient with our many questions. Her little dog Tupac got along well with our dog, helping with the transition. Beth does a great job of communicating. She sent daily updates and photos so that we could see how Josie was doing. Beth is very good. Highly recommend.”
“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.”

“Shunita was amazing!! It was a last minute booking and she was very helpful and informative! Communication was great & I got videos daily, will definitely be using her again !!!”
“I was very, very happy with Lynne. She watched my dog, Buddy for 4 days, and sent pictures and updates every day. I could tell he was happy, and I was especially glad that she has an fenced in back yard, and that she let him on the furniture and her bed, because he's spoiled! I will definitely let him stay with her again. Great experience!”
“I am so pleased with the care that my FIVE fur babies received! (And the two Big ones, are Hoodlums!) I know how much work they take, as well as the eye drops and 4 medications; and she really earned her money! They ranged in weight from 9, 13, 60, 89, to 93 pounds!

“Dawn is wonderful with my boys. She made every effort to befriend my very shy Finley. They are buds now and it took no time. Dawn is very knowledgeable with large dogs. She is also very dependable and communicates well when she is unavailable. WE LOVE HER!!”
“Annie was perfect with my kitties. ❤️ She went above & beyond for them & stayed with them much longer than I asked for & kept them company while I was on a last min trip. She followed my instructions to feed them separately & played with them, & even brushed them without me asking. They took a liking to her quickly and I’m sure they miss her already. 😂 and she sent the best pictures! Book with her 1000%!!”
About: I’ve spent my entire adult life caring for cats, and at this point I speak fluent meow. Whenever a partner was out of town, I handled all the drop‑ins—providing belly rubs (but only when Her Majesty permitted), play sessions, cleaned litter box, and always sure there is a full bowl of fresh food and water. In short: I make sure every sweet baby feel like the royalty they clearly are.
About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals and would be honored to care for your furry family members. Growing up, I was surrounded by both large and small dogs, as well as indoor and feral cats, so I’m comfortable with a variety of personalities, needs, and energy levels. My professional background is in senior care, where I coordinated care across West Louisville and served as an Activities Director in several local senior living communities. Those roles taught me the importance of patience, reliability, communication, and treating every individual with kindness and respect. I bring that same level of care and attention to every pet I meet. Whether your pet needs companionship, playtime, a calm presence, or just someone dependable to keep their routine on track, I’ll treat them like one of my own.
About: I’ve been taking care of my own personal pets since I was 11. I routinely cared for a special needs dog in which I learned to administer medicine to her as well as my own pets. I am currently a full time student, before and after classes I’m able to tend your pets and look after them. I am flexible in the mornings and evenings. Saturdays and Sundays i’m fully available to look after, walk, bathe, or take care of your pets. I can also take your pet to the vet, groomers or any appts if transportation is required I am available for two to three walks each day. Feeding and watering according to your pets normal schedule as well administering any medication they need. I’m also available for some grooming tasks such as brushing and bathing.
About: I have been in the pet-sitting scene for 3 years now! Started with friends and family, then branched out from there! I've learned how to care for a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, birds, and my favorite type of pet: rodents (Guinea Pigs are the Best!). Taken care of older pets that need medications and careful care, as well as young and energetic pets that need some more playtime and enrichment! I believe one of the most important skills to have to be a great pet sitter is proper and clear communication with the owners. I communicate how often an owner would want! I would communicate with videos and pictures of your pet's adventures, or communicate any concerns if any arise. I want to make sure that while you're away, you can rest easy knowing your pet is safe and happy! :) I do work part-time as of right now, typically working 15-25 hours a week. I mostly work morning shifts from 10:30-5:00, but usually leave an hour early. If you need me to stay most of the day, please let me know at least a month in advance; I would happily take off work! There are a few things I would like to know about your furry little friend: 1. How often do they need to go out? 2. How much enrichment do they need? 3. Do they take any medication? 4. Do they have any triggers I should be concerned about? 5. Do they have a good understanding of commands? (It's ok if not :3) 6. How long can they be left alone? Please inform me of anything I need to know. I want to make sure your baby/babies are taken care of! I can't wait to meet some new friends!
“Eleanor did an excellent job with my two kitties. She communicated well during her visits and by the photos she sent it was easy to see the kitties liked her. All photos were appreciated. When I returned home everything was neat and tidy. Definitely would have Eleanor next time.”
“Emmalea did a wonderful job checking in on our two cats while we were away for a short trip. Her communication with us was top notch, and I would definitely recommend Emmalea. Our cats were relaxed and happy when we returned home, and we knew that they were cared for well while we were away.”
“I was so happy to be able to book Donai again. Second time’s a charm! I knew my cats were in great hands, and I always loved seeing the Rover reports and pictures while I was enjoying my trip. Thanks for your flexibility and your clear communication!”
About: I’m an animal lover of all kinds, but cats have ALWAYS held an extra special place in my heart! I’ve owned cats/kittens for as long as I can remember, and have plenty of experience with administering medications and caring for senior and special needs kitties, too! Families have trusted me time and time again to care for their feline babies because I treat every single one as if they were my own.
About: Well I wrote a novel but it didn't save, lol, so let me just say that I've had two special needs kitties since I was 22 and I'm 50 now. We give daily baths and our two tuxie handicapable boys were and are loved and cared for like no other. Both have gone through multiple health issues, surgeries and MRIs, and there's nothing we wouldn't do for them! I give daily meds to our Fennie who has a degenerative cerebellar disorder (we drove to Chicago to adopt him). We have three sweet babies inside, two tuxie boys, Fennie & Andre the Giant Kitty, & a little, sassy, bottle baby black princess named Salem Winifred. All are under 5yrs old. We have two outside, if they show up to put house they never look back, and have everything they want and need. One we cannot touch, but both have heated cat houses and are just as spoiled. Squintsy & Bitties. Whether you’re away for a weekend or an extended trip, your cats will receive attentive, loving care in the comfort of their own home. I've had special needs babies for over 20yrs now, so I'm very experienced in tending to special needs & giving medication. Flexible scheduling available. Serving Shepherdsville and nearby areas. Send me a message if you'd like to discuss your cat(s) needs 🐱 I'll make sure everything is purrfect for your babies!

In a client’s home, I’ll make sure your pet is comfortable in their familiar environment while providing reliable walks, feeding, fresh water, playtime, cuddles, litter box or potty cleanup, and any medication or special care they need. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away.

But I’m able to happily provide housesitting/petsitting services at my clients homes.

I look forward to meeting your babies:) I currently work at a vets office Thursday-Saturday from 9am-5:30pm (1pm on Saturdays), and volunteer Sunday nights, so I would unfortunately not be able to provide around the clock care. Otherwise, I am at the home all day! I am open to frequent walks, brushing, bathing, giving medication, and any other specific needs for your pet! I understand how tedious and picky some animals tend to be, so I'm open to any accommodations necessary.

Between looking after my own dog and my family's, I have the experience and love to make sure your furry friend gets the attention they deserve! I'm a middle school teacher in the Louisville area, so weekends are the best for house sitting and longer watching periods! During the weekday afternoons, I would love to help check in, play with your pup, or give them a nice long walk! Communication is the most important thing. I will always follow the wishes of the owner to make sure your pets are cared for in the most consistent way possible.

About: I’ve had all type of pets from sugar Glider’s dogs ferrets fish for over 10 years I love all kind of animals yours to . Pet care naturally fits into my everyday life because I enjoy building my schedule around giving animals the attention and care they deserve. I have the flexibility to provide dependable visits throughout the day for feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and companionship. I understand how important it is to keep pets on their normal routine, and I make reliability a priority. Caring for cats isn’t just something I do—it’s something I genuinely enjoy. Whether it’s spending time playing with an energetic kitten, keeping a senior cat comfortable, or simply providing quiet companionship for a shy cat, I make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. I also keep pet owners updated with photos and messages so they can have peace of mind while they’re away. We have a high privacy fence with big back yard where they will play with our dogs and play ball tug-of-war and other fun games
About: Hi, and thank you for visiting my profile. I have been caring for animals since the age of five and have developed extensive hands-on experience over the years. I currently own and care for a variety of animals, including three horses, two sheep, a dog, three cats, a flying squirrel, and a chinchilla. This diverse background has given me valuable experience in handling pets of all types, sizes, and temperaments. I am confident in my ability to provide reliable, attentive, and compassionate care to animals of any age or breed. I am also skilled in basic training techniques and can assist with bathing and giving medications as needed. My approach is always patient and respectful, ensuring your pets feel comfortable and safe in my care. I look forward to the opportunity to meet you and your beloved pets. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or specific needs. I currently work PRN at the hospital, which means I pick up shifts when I want to! My typical hours when I do work are 7pm–7am. I’m also a full-time nursing student, but even with my busy schedule, I always make time for your pets. I don’t offer boarding in my home just yet, but I’m more than happy to come to your home to care for your pets! If you have ANY questions at all, please don’t hesitate to ask — I’m very responsive and always willing to help. Whether I’m house sitting or just stopping by for a check-in, your dog will get plenty of attention and time outside. I genuinely enjoy spending quality time with pets—whether that means playing, going for walks, or simply relaxing with some snuggles. I believe dogs deserve companionship and stimulation, not long hours confined to a crate. When they’re in my care, they’ll stay active, engaged, and loved—chances are they’ll be happily worn out by the time you return!

“They were absolutely amazing with my dog, Charlie. From the moment we dropped him off, they were kind, patient, and super understanding. You can tell they genuinely care about the dogs they watch. Charlie was comfortable with them and that gave me a lot of peace of mind. They kept me updated and were very attentive to his needs. I’m really grateful for how well they treated him and I would 100% trust them again. Highly recommend!”

“Dawn did an amazing job taking care of my fur baby. We were gone for a week and she made sure to update me on how my baby was doing through texts and photos. She even cuddled her and bought treats when she wasn’t eating the ones I brought. She and her husband were amazing caregivers for my sweet fur baby. I never worried once about whether my baby was safe.”
“Reservé con Nelson el cuidado de mis mascotas por 7 días, realmente hizo un excelente trabajo, Kira y Linda fueron acogidas como suyas. Todos los días recibía fotos y vídeos de ambas donde se mostraban alegres. Gracias Nelson sin dudas volvería a contratarte para que cuides de mis mascotas.”
“Sydney had such a good time vacationing with Melody and her family - Melody sent us daily pictures and updates about how she was doing and I had no worries whatsoever the whole time we were away. She ate well and was given her insulin injections twice daily without any issues, which is a wonderful as sometimes she doesn't eat as well when she is staying away from home. I highly recommend Melody to anyone who needs a furry family member sitter and I certainly plan to be calling her again the next time Sydney plans a vacation.”
“We were first time Rover users and Beth was super accommodating and patient with our many questions. Her little dog Tupac got along well with our dog, helping with the transition.

“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.”

About: I worked in an overnight pet facility called Pet Station Country Club for close to a year as a part of the overnight team. From around 7pm to 6am I would have personal watch of dozens of pets including cats and dogs, and was in charge of giving them medications and potty breaks. I am also Pet Tech CPR and First Aid certified, so I can give medical attention to your pet in an emergency. I have grown up around all kinds of cats, dogs, rabbits and chickens, and love pets! I am a full time student undergoing my junior year at University of Louisville, but am free multiple times during the day to check in on pets as I live within 5 minutes of campus. My evenings are free, and I have no prior commitments. The townhome I stay in has a fenced in yard and is incredibly close to University's campus, meaning it is a safe environment for walks and care.
“Abigail could not have been more amazing with our two pups! We had lots of communication and pictures of them during their stay, and they got lots of love and attention. Highly highly recommend!”
