“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!”
“We couldn’t be more grateful for the care and love that our sweet baby girl (Sol) received during her stay! Ebony was incredibly attentive, giving Sol the space she needed and a slow, gentle introduction. She even set aside special one-on-one time, keeping Sol entertained while they watched movies. We felt completely at ease knowing our baby girl was in such kind, thoughtful hands. Highly recommend!””
“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.”
“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!”
“George and Erin took great care of my dog. They have an INCREDIBLE space for dogs to run and be free. I got regular updates, and their communication was always prompt. Thank you both!”
“Shunita was so great with Dango! I'm so thankful to have found her on such short notice, I received updates and not only that but she was super patient when it came to him being nervous around other dogs. He ended up making a couple of friends during his stay! She also made sure he ate, he was being a little odd ball not eating his food but she went of her way giving him chicken everyday. I am so glad to have found her I really cannot thank you enough!💕”
“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.”
“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”
“Ryo was fantastic with our Beagle, Maple. He was incredibly patient and kind and made our dog feel right at home. We would love to work with him again in the future!”

“Bayley did a great job taking care of our cats while we were out of town! She followed all the instructions on our guide, sent proof-of-life pictures on every drop-in, and consistently communicated about the timing of her visits. It was such a relief to know our fur babies were in good hands so we could enjoy our trip :)”
About: Pets are my world. I volunteered at an animal rescue for 8 years before I moved out of town. I had a 14-year-old rescue who was blind and diabetic. I gave him two injections a day and cooked his food every week. Let your pup be my new bestie. I currently do not have a set schedule so my schedule is pretty flexible to keep your babies company when needed even in short notice! I let them smell me each time and come to me when they are comfortable. I have no doubt they will warm up to me fast!
“No complaints whatsoever! Brynne took excellent care of my cats for a week, provided detailed updates and clear photos throughout, and went above and beyond to keep them comfortable, clean, and entertained during her visits. Thank you Brynne!”
“Eleanor is a cat whisperer!! One of our cats rarely likes new people, but by the end of Eleanor’s visits she was laying in her lap! Eleanor was amazing at catering to the individual needs of both cats. Our active cat got lots of playtime each visit. She was extremely reliable and responsive, and sent tons of photos of them having the best time 😊 We will absolutely be booking her again!”
“We were really happy with the care she gave our dog while we were away. At first our dog was a little shy and unsure, but she eventually warmed up to her and started getting excited for their walks and playtime. I was honestly nice seeing her look forward to the visits. She always made sure our dog was fed and had fresh clean water, and even with only 30-minute visits, she still took the time to walk and play with her. Our dog can pull a lot during walks, but she handled her really well and seemed patient with her. Overall we were satisfied with her care and appreciated the updates and time she spent with our dog while we were away. We’d definitely consider booking with her again. Thank you again!”
“Jacqueline did an absolutely stellar job -- I got TONS of pictures of my kitties to help me feel secure while I was on vacation, and she did an amazing job both with the routine feeding/cleaning care as well as pets/play :) great communication, and was even able to be flexible and handle an extra day when my flight got cancelled. Highly recommend for all future pet care needs!”
About: I’ve always had a genuine love for cats and understand that every cat has its own personality, routine, and needs. My goal is to make every cat feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. I provide dependable care that includes feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, administering oral medications when needed, playtime, enrichment, grooming, and plenty of affection—always at the cat’s pace. What sets me apart is my attention to detail and my commitment to treating every pet like family. I take the time to learn each cat’s routine, favorite toys, hiding spots, and any special instructions to help reduce stress while their owner is gone. I’m patient with shy or anxious cats, energetic with playful kittens, and gentle with senior cats who may need extra care and a slower pace. I also provide regular updates with photos and messages, so owners always know their cat is happy, healthy, and in good hands. I pride myself on being reliable, respectful of my clients’ homes, and focused on creating a calm, loving environment where every cat can feel secure until their family returns.
About: I have been taking care of pets at different households my whole life. My chores as a kid regularly consisted of scooping the litter box and walking the dog. By the time I was 16 my uncle trusted me to watch his pitbull for a couple days at a time and now I watch his two huskies every so often. I've even fostered and trained a German shepherd husky mix until rehoming her. I now have a Chihuahua shihtzu mix named Bumi and a giant tuxedo cat named Momo who I keep very happy and healthy. I would like to be able to pet sit full time. I'm just starting out, but have the time to check on your fur babies in the afternoons or evenings on weekdays and am available anytime Saturday's. As a pet owner I know how nice it is knowing that your pet isn't fully unattended and I'm ready to be there for you. I practice treat training to build positive associations. I want to be your pets new best friend who they can play with every day and go on good walks. I'm ready to dedicate myself to helping take care of your fur babies and give you peace of mind.
“Brittney did a “great “ job taking care of my Cat Eddie.She was on time,very conscientious and Eddie loved her.She is truly great with animals...I would recommend her to anyone looking for a Pet sitter.”
About: I’ve always been around cats since I was a kid. I currently work nights at the Louisville Zoo. I have cat specific experience for 6+ years, involving cleaning, feeding, and administering medication.
“Ryo did a great job for our 10 night house/cat-sit. Great communication, sent plenty of pictures, and I know that our three shy cats were definitely building that comfort and familiarity you all hope for in a house or pet sitter. Only feedback is the water bowls needed one last top-up, but not the end of the world. Overall Ryo was super respectful of our space, and left everything in its place. You'll be our first choice for future cat and house sitting needs if you're interested Ryo, that's for sure! Thanks again so much.”
“Samantha was the best! Professional, friendly, and excellent communication. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her, and will definitely be using her services again in the future.”

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 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

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.

In your home I always follow your instructions to maintain your routines, while in mine I offer a clean, safe and loving space. I make sure they have fresh water, regular walks and constant supervision. I can also administer food or medicines according to the indications. My goal is that your furry ones feel calm and happy, and that you have the confidence that they are in good hands
About: I have worked with animals since I was a kid. I’ve pet sat for many friends and family for a variety of animals such as dogs, cats, and livestock. I currently work nights at the Louisville Zoo. I also have experience with clicker training animals. I do work nights into the early morning Thursday through Monday. I would be available during the day afterwards and in the evenings. I have taken care of both my own pets and other people’s pets around my schedule. I prefer to keep pets in their own home so there is no additional stress when adjusting to new surroundings or my personal pets. I have my own car so driving to and from will not be an issue.
About: I have had fur babies all my life. From puppy stage to senior care. They are truly part of the family. I look forwards to loving on yours I have the please of working from home, fitting your pet into my daily routine would be identical to how I am able to send time with my own. I have a huge fenced in yard. I have one fur baby he is a bernedoodle who is turning two at the end of this year. He gets along great with other dogs and enjoys the company. So I am able to provide each pet with the love they need I have very limited space on how many dogs I will keep at once. If your pet enjoys walks, we will go on walks, enjoy fetch in the backyard, we will play fetch in the back yard. Your pet is part of my family once you guys enter my home. I do have children who love to run around with animals also.
About: Hi, I’m Maria! I’m a caring, responsible, and patient pet sitter who truly loves animals. My goal is to make every dog or cat feel safe, relaxed, and loved while you’re away. I understand how important your pet is to you, and I treat every furry guest like part of my own family. I’m experienced with shy, nervous, and first‑time pets, and I’m happy to follow any routine you already have in place—feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, or special instructions. I also provide regular updates, photos, and messages so you always know how your pet is doing. I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am available every day of the week!!! I will be available on weekends. I have a huge yard for your puppy to play safely and securely. I have many toys to relieve their stress!!! Your dogs will be on good hands
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats of all kinds ever since I was roughly 13 years old, and am also able to administer medications to animals. Family members, friends, and referrals/new friends have trusted me with their pets time and time again because I genuinely enjoy spending time with and taking care of their critters as if they’re my own! I also have experience with farm/unique animals like chickens, chinchillas, guinea pigs, rabbits, snakes, etc., and I have experience caring for epileptic dogs, as well as senior animals! I can ALWAYS promise to treat your babies like they’re my own, and to ensure they get the best of care. My availability is quite flexible, and I typically have the ability to run over and do house visits or walks as often as they are needed, and I’m able to provide housesitting services, too! I unfortunately am unable to host animals in my home due to rules against it (I’m a renter). I apologize in advance if this causes any kind of inconvenience. But I’m able to happily provide housesitting/petsitting services at my clients homes.
About: Hello! I am studying in my masters program and looking for extra income to be. My partner lives in Texas with our Sharpei pitbull mix, Buster. I am missing him everyday I’m away. I have a cat of my own with me who is 10 and is named Bagheera. I am very fun and active and love the idea of taking your dog on long walks. I grew up with dog of various “big dog” breeds and I can handle puppies no matter how big or small they might be. I would love the opportunity to play with and care for any animal, and make sure they have everything they need! I’m a full-time student so my schedule is flexible and I’m available for boarding on the weekdays and weekends. Depending on my schedule, I may be out of the house for about four hours at a time, but frequently visit home. Before starting grad school, I was a full-time nanny for 10 years so I have lots of care experience and know the depths of which people love their pets. Being a nanny has helped me react quickly in emergency situations and has helped me expand my horizon of dog care as well!
About: Although I don’t have formal professional experience in pet care, I’ve spent years caring for my family/friends pets and making sure they feel loved and safe. From walks and feeding schedules, to playtime and comfort. This has taught me responsibility, patience, and how to provide attentive, living care. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, even with a full time job. I work at 8-4:30 Monday through friday. I am available anytime after that. I can also work some weekends. Anytime of the day on weekends preferably before 3pm. I myself have a little Yorkie at home. Your pets safety and comfort are my top priorities. I will make sure your dog is closely supervised at all times during dog walks. Whether your dog needs a calm stroll or a more energetic walk, I’ll make sure they get the exercise, attention, and care they deserve. I look forward to caring for your dog and treating them like my own! 🙂
About: I'm a freelance artist and mostly work from my laptop, which allows me to hang out with your pet(s) pretty much the entire time. We'll cuddle, and go on walks, and play outside, and I'll give them lots of loving pets. I will also send you frequent photos of them, since I know how stressful it can be to leave them in someone else's care. For me, dog sitting is more than just making some extra money...it's therapy. I am unable to have a dog of my own at this time so I am looking for some dog friends who will help to fill that void. I have yet to meet a dog I didn't like (even the crazy ones), so I'm sure your pet and I will get along swimmingly. I mostly work from home so I will be with your dog most, if not all of the time. I especially love longer stays, but open to just about any length of time. Lots of pets and cuddles! I love taking them on walks, or just hanging out in my fenced backyard. I live near Iroquois park, so that’s also a favorite activity.

“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!”
“We couldn’t be more grateful for the care and love that our sweet baby girl (Sol) received during her stay! Ebony was incredibly attentive, giving Sol the space she needed and a slow, gentle introduction. She even set aside special one-on-one time, keeping Sol entertained while they watched movies. We felt completely at ease knowing our baby girl was in such kind, thoughtful hands. Highly recommend!””

About: Hi! My name is Emm! I am a queer and queer-friendly person and active in my community. I have taken care of animals since I was 8. I raised puppies, walked massive dobermans, and at one point took care of 13 dogs at once! Feeding, watering, cleaning up after, walking, and loving your pet like you would are my top priorities. I lived with my father after becoming an adult and took care of his cat. Animals of all kinds are fine by me! I'm available at any time! When I am not working, I spend my time with my partner, listen to music, and practice my culinary skills. If I stay at your home, I will respect your pets and your things like you're my family. Your pets will be pampered and well cared for. I'll take great care of them, and give them plenty of love and attention.
“Cody was absolutely AMAZING!! He was very quick with replies and followed my care instructions very well. Sent updates often with pictures. Highly recommend!!!”

“Melody was so flexible with us as we made a late reservation for the weekend! She was kind and communicated so well with us before and while our dog stayed! Thank you!!”
“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: I am experienced with dogs of all sizes and cats! I love animals & all their quirks! I have a dog as well as two cats. I can’t wait to meet your fur baby! I am currently working from home so I am open to care for your pet in any way they need! Whether they are big, small, chill, or active. I have a large fenced in yard and a very friendly pup to keep your fur babies company. I believe positive reinforcement is the only productive way to interact with animals.
“The best there is!! My babies are so cared for and so loved. Not just by Valerie but also by her family. That’s more than I can wish for when they are in the care of others! ❤️”
“Nissa took such wonderful care of our dogs! They had so much fun and I loved all the thoughtful updates while we were gone. I felt so much better knowing they were in great hands!”
“Krista was absolutely wonderful! I booked her for my 2 senior dogs, the oldest of which has a few health struggles and she was amazing with them both. She sent updates and pictures throughout their entire stay keeping me at ease and was a perfect match to someone new to the app. We will definitely be returning and I highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs. 10/10!”
“Samantha was really great with keeping me updated with REMÏ she sent pictures and also sent messages about her behavior and feedings. She also helped me out an extra day because of an emergency that happened in my family. I will highly recommend her to friends and family if ever they need someone to sit for their pet.”
“Jen was absolutely spectacular. I can’t say enough great things about her and how much care and attention she gave my little one. I am so glad we found her!”
“Sometimes it's hard to really know if someone is a dog lover, but not Stephanie. It's obvious from the get-go that dogs are a part of her life. Meeting her for the first time, we knew our Maggie was in the right hands. She's attentive, sent us pictures and videos of Mags while we were on vacation, loving, and updated us as she cared for her. She's on our short list for regulars now. Definitely recommend!”
