“What a delightful family! Ryan, his wife, 3 kids and menagerie of pets were welcoming-immediately putting us at ease! We received frequent updates and photos while we were gone, which reassured us that our pup was happy and well cared for.”
“My little dog loved Katie and her family! They took excellent care of him during the Kentucky Fried Pickin event at the Holiday Inn in Owensboro. We feel very happy now that we have such a high quality place to board our dog during music events in Owensboro. We will definitely be booking with this wonderful family again!”
“Nathalie did a terrific job with our fur baby Zoey. She sent us a few pictures then everyday sent us a text on how she was doing. She even came and pick her up and then dropped her back off when we got home. We will use her again.”

About: I have taken care of pets since I was young, and always had pets in my home! I am a huge huge animal lover! We currently have 3 dogs, 3 cats, 2 bearded dragons, chickens, ducks and rabbits. We love all animals! I have been a Stay at Home Mom since my girls were born. Now that they are older, I’m looking for new things to do that I enjoy, and can still be around for my family when they need me. I have a fenced in yard that the dogs run and play in, a detached garage with an attachment. Inside the attachment there is a couch, TV, AC, and heat, with plenty of room to run around and play! It makes a nice little hang out spot. We come out here to play and run around at times. There is also a security camera in the attachment as well. Dog must be potty trained, and good with other dogs and cats. Please be honest, so it won’t cause conflict while taking care of your baby and others. If we take care of larger dogs, they will stay in the attachment and not in the house.
“Amber was able to take on my cat at a very short notice, and provided excellent care during my trip out of town. She was also very polite and provided many pictures during the boarding period to keep me in the loop.”
“Lynana was fantastic! I felt very comfortable leaving our dog with this family. Our dog, who often is very nervous, acted right at home immediately. The family was all kind and Lynana provided updates daily. I would highly recommend Lynana and her family.”
“Shelley is super kind and our pups seemed to have really enjoyed their stay with her! Loved seeing the update pics throughout the day. I've already got my pups booked for a future stay and I'm happy to know that my pups will be in good hands with Shelley again.”
“Michelle is amazing, not only a great person and loves dogs, very down to earth, she is very responsive, gives great updates with pictures so you can see how your babies are doing. She has the sweetest little Yorkie for a playmate. She was willing to keep your exercise and feeding routine going to the best of her ability. We absolutely loved her and will be using her services again.”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Kelsey! She took amazing care of our dog and went above and beyond to keep us updated with frequent photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dog was happy, comfortable, and well-loved the entire time. One of the sweetest touches was the personalized “thanks for visiting” card she made, complete with photos of our dog—it was such a thoughtful and memorable gesture. We truly appreciate the care and attention she put into everything. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and attentive dog sitter!”

“Raechel was amazing with my Stella girl! She seemed so happy and at home with her while we were in Florida! I didn’t need to worry about her at all because I knew She was well taken care of! Raechel sent me pics and kept me updated with how Stella was doing. We will definitely use her again! I highly recommend her!”
“This is the 3rd time Marshall has stayed with Debbie. She always does a great job and sends lots of pics throughout the booking. I’m pretty sure she spoils my dog more than I do so he always gets a little vacation too! Couldn’t recommend her enough.”

We booked somewhat last minute and were very anxious as we had trip planned, etc. She accommodated and took very good care of our kitties.

About: I am a natural at caring for and nurturing dogs which I have had since I was 3. Caring for them is a joy and a blessing. They will be pampered as if they were mine. I've taken care of puppies as well as elderly including those who need medication and special needs. Please check my availability because I have not mastered how to use the calendar I stay at home full time so there is no worry about separation anxiety or on time potty breaks. They also get plenty of exercise as needed as well as affection. I have 2 nearby dog parks, one within walking distance that I use. I have 2 yorkies that love other dogs and my home is theirs. They are welcome anywhere in my home. I do go by my middle name which is GAIL. Thank you!

About: Farm grown! I have had closer friendships with more animals than people! I enjoy all types of dogs with all types of needs. I like to play fetch, go for runs/walks, rough and tumble, training, petting, beach and just about any activity a dog likes. Whether you have a pup that needs more exercise or one that just needs some love. I am a veteran, a forever student and a dad. I exercise outside daily regardless of the weather. Might as well bring a friend and make it fun! I am flexible and will provide the type of environment the client requests! I never privoke or push a pet outside of their comfort zone. I see them as children, and will protect them like my own.
“Debbie look amazing care of our little girl!! Lou lou got to have lots of play time and attention! When she came home she was warn out!! I would recommend her to anyone looking for pet care!”
“Lynana is very friendly and warm. I was in her area visiting family for the holidays and was very lucky to find her in time for a last minute family outing. I also had the pleasure of meeting her equally friendly son when picking up my pup. Highly recommend.”
About: I've loved animals all of my life and wish I could rescue every animal in need. Currently my little 9 y/o Yorkie, Ellie May is my whole world, not sure how I'd survive without her so I deeply understand the concern of leaving your babies in someone else's care! My daily schedule is very open and flexible & rates are negotiable. I'm willing to coordinate with you on your needs whether it be for weekdays, weekends and/or holidays. I will always be in tune with your pet's needs and wants and give lots of love and attention so your dog/s will always be safe & happy!
About: Hi there! I'm Kels; lover of all things furry, but especially dogs. I've had dogs all my life. Grew up in a home that fostered often. I tried fostering once and she never left. 😆 I have 2 doodles of my own. A 9 year old labradoodle and a 4 year old golden doodle. I've dog sat for friends and family for years in their home, my own, or regular drop ins. I promise to give your dog real attention and affection. My furs are my life and I will treat yours with as much care as I treat mine. I love sharing pictures of your pets while you're away to give you peace of mind and hopefully a few smiles. I know that's something I look forward to when I am away from my pups. I work full time from home with a fairly flexible schedule. I can easily modify my break times for walks, potty breaks, and of course snuggles and playtime. When visiting your home I promise to treat it with respect; valuing your property and privacy. My home offers a fenced in front yard for safe potty breaks, but they will always be monitored when they have access to the yard. For those needing more adventure and space there are 12 acres of grass, trees, and lake to play in. We can discuss placing a GPS fence collar on them if they will have time outside the fenced yard. Safety, fun, and affection are the priorities over here.
“Debbie was amazing with Joey. I would definitely recommend her. I love all the pics she sent to show how his day is going. Joey seemed to really enjoy himself with her. I will definitely use her again.”
“Mallory was an excellent dog sitter for our two pups! She was very flexible with our pick up and drop off times and our dogs really seemed to enjoy playing with her dog in her fenced in back yard. Highly recommend her service and will be using her again!”
About: Seasoned in dog care, I offer a blend of companionship and responsibility. From tailored walks to playtime, your canine companion's happiness and health are my top priorities. Using positive reinforcement techniques, I foster good behavior, ensuring a well-behaved and happy furry family member. I am a student at USI and have time in between classes to care for pets. During the week my course load varies giving me the opportunity to commit entire days or parts of my day to non academic activities. I have a fenced in yard and 3 playful dogs for your fur baby to play with. I care for my clients home as if it were mine and ensure timely potty breaks and walks for dogs with ample playtime. For cats I make sure they have a fresh litter box and clean water bowls. I strictly follow feeding instructions and dietary guidelines for the animals in my care to ensure the happiest and healthiest pet.
“You need to book with Raechel! She watched my timid pup for 2 days and when I dropped him off the second day, he was super excited to see her again! She sent me pictures throughout the day and messaged me how he was doing. I'll be asking her to keep my pup again.”
About: I love dogs more than people. I’ve always had a dog as a pet since I was young. You wouldn’t regret having me spend time with your animal. Your dog will feel welcomed and loved they will feel right at home. I love all types of dogs, big, small, old, young even puppies. Best way to contact me is through text message I always have my phone handy with me. If you need my number just ask. I’m available Monday through Friday. I can take last minute appointments if need be. I’m able to work with your schedule if you need anything just message me.

I have one 3 year old goldendoodle and 2 year old Aussie doodle they are extra friendly able to keep you dog company. Plenty of dog toys. I have 2 kids when home from school they love to play with dogs. Any needs you need to met I can meet them for you.

“I couldn’t be happier with my first experience with Olivia on Rover. From the start, she was communicative, punctual, and clearly passionate about caring for dog. My pup enjoyed every moment of the walk and came home tired and content. The detailed updates and friendly demeanor made all the difference. I highly recommend Olivia’s services!”
About: I have always loved animals. I have rescued animals for the last 30 years. Currently my newest rescue is 1 and full of spunk. I tend to rescue seniors and of course care for my sisters and parents animals why they are away. This is giving me the opportunity to care for animals while the owners are away!

“Whitney was awesome!! Oscar loved her and was overjoyed to see her each time. He is a sweet boy but quite a headstrong beagle. She handled him perfectly.

One of the sweetest touches was the personalized “thanks for visiting” card she made, complete with photos of our dog—it was such a thoughtful and memorable gesture. We truly appreciate the care and attention she put into everything. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and attentive dog sitter!”
“Raechel was amazing with my Stella girl! She seemed so happy and at home with her while we were in Florida! I didn’t need to worry about her at all because I knew She was well taken care of! Raechel sent me pics and kept me updated with how Stella was doing. We will definitely use her again! I highly recommend her!”
“This is the 3rd time Marshall has stayed with Debbie. She always does a great job and sends lots of pics throughout the booking. I’m pretty sure she spoils my dog more than I do so he always gets a little vacation too! Couldn’t recommend her enough.”
About: Dogs have always been part of my life, and I’ve been caring for them since I was young. I’m trustworthy and focused on keeping your pet comfortable and safe. I am unemployed so I'm free all weekdays. I do go out on weekends though, but can still care for your pet when needed. I have 2 dogs and 1 cat. They are very playful and good with other animals. I also have a house with a fenced in yard.
“We had never used an in home sitting service for our Bernedoodle pup before and weren’t sure what to expect- but Joshua exceeded any expectations I could have set! Will certainly use Joshua in the future!”
About: Now accepting summer boarding, holiday bookings, 4th of July coverage and vacation stays! I bring 13 years of professional animal care experience, including roles in general practice, emergency medicine, internal medicine, and lab diagnostics. As a former vet tech, I’m skilled in medication administration, symptom monitoring, and anxiety management. For the past three and a half years, my husband and I have run a private, in home doggie daycare and overnight boarding service. We offer one on one play, a spacious quarter acre fenced yard, and a secure clean cozy indoor space tailored for comfort and enrichment. With no other pets or children in our house, and the luxury of us both having a schedule that allows us to be home full-time, your pup receives our full attention and supervision 24/7 and they’re cared for like family. Doggy daycare and boarding is our full-time focus, and we’re home 24/7 to provide attentive, personalized care. Each day begins at 8:00am with one on one enrichment play in our spacious, fenced backyard. We avoid group play for safety, only allowing interaction between bonded pets. This approach lets us welcome dogs who may not thrive in traditional daycare settings. After morning play, pups rest before and after meals to prevent bloat, then enjoy relaxed indoor time on our cozy futon or human sized dog bed. Outdoor breaks and play continue throughout the day until dinner at 5:00pm, followed by evening rest and a final potty break at 10:00pm. All dogs are monitored via live feed cameras, ensuring constant supervision. Our goal is to make every stay feel like a safe, joyful home away from home. If you require greater than 8 hours of doggy daycare, pricing will go up to reflect the number of hours needed and the level of care we provide as well as your dog or puppy's needs. Your pup will enjoy full access to our home’s main floor, outfitted with baby gates, plush dog beds including a human sized one for large breeds or bonded pairs and sun bathing areas by large windows perfect for lounging. During the day, dogs are never kenneled unless we need to leave the home for a short period of time and can freely explore both indoors and our spacious, fenced backyard filled with squirrels, rabbits and birds to chase. At night, all pups sleep safely in kennels, monitored by a live feed camera system that streams directly to our phones. We welcome dogs of all ages and sizes. Safety and comfort are our top priorities, and we’re happy to answer any questions during your meet and greet.
