“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!”

“This was our first time leaving Cooper and Ryan answered all of our questions and made us feel beyond comfortable leaving Cooper with them. I loved getting daily updates and pictures. I can tell that Cooper was treated like their own. We will definitely book again❤️😊”

“Shelby was amazing with our dog Minni. She not only worked with us on scheduling the booking but treated Minni just like one of her own pets. We didn’t bring her a sweater and it was cold out so she let her borrow a freshly washed hoodie to keep warm. She was great about sending us a picture daily to keep us updated about her stay. Will definitely use her again when we need a sitter and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a comfy home away from home for their pet.”

“We had a great experience with Nathalie! She was available on very short notice, which helped us out a lot. She took great care of our dog and kept everything smooth and stress-free while we were away. Nathalie also kept us updated with pictures, which gave us peace of mind knowing our dog was in good hands. We’re looking forward to using her again and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.”


“Best doggie sitter ever! We love Jordan and Collin and how well they take care of our dogs! Great communication, and great care. Absolutely better alternative to traditional boarding.”

“She is the best! Scout took to them in a heartbeat and had no trouble making himself at home there. We got updates, photos, and cute stories during his stay! We will definitely be using her again and suggesting her to anyone else we know that needs a dog sitter. I can’t say enough good words about his stay!”

About: We have been pet owners for most of our lives. We currently have 2 cavalier King Charles dogs. We have been dog sitting for many years now and we love it. My husband and I are both retired now and have moved to Kentucky and are just starting to use the Rover platform. We stay and play not just let them out and then leave. We believe dogs get lonely too and need some extra attention when their people are away. We have a flexible schedule so we can come over as many times as you like or even spend the night with them. We also can have them come stay with us! Just ask for what you need to make sure you are comfortable knowing your pets are in great care while you can’t be there! My husband and I are both retired and love meeting new pet friends. We have owned dogs all our lives and have owned kitties in the past as well. Our animals are family member and treated as such. We have years of experience pet sitting and would love a chance to meet your fur babies We have a fenced in back yard and 2 doggies who love to play! We also have a nice neighborhood to take walks in too!! Since we are both retired we are home during the day so your babies would get loads of attention and time
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.

“Debbie and her furry family was wonderful with Max. Lucy, Zoie, and Harley were great companions during his visit. Debbie provided plenty of updates with pictures and a video of Max playing and simply chillin in the house. Debbie truly loves animals.”

About: I've been raised with cats and frequently cat sit for my best friend who has 3 cats of very different personalities and fur/size types. I've also fostered a number of cats but sadly my husband is allergic or I would have my own cat. Due to this I would love to spoil your fur baby!
About: I bathe the dogs, water/feed, play/go on walk or running, take them outside to use the bathroom after they get done eating there supper. If they need medicine before or after eating there meal, I can do that because I had to do it with my German Shepherd once. Animals give me pride, joy, and make me feel special inside and stress is gone. Animals should be treated like a family member in your home. Someone will always be home that you meet during the meet n greet to ensure your animals are taken care of. It fits my schedule Tuesday through Friday I work 7:30am to 2pm sometimes done before that. Daughters are at school during the day. I will make sure that fences are shut, doors are shut as well as making sure theres no holes in the fences for them to squeeze through.
About: I’ve taken care of animals ever since the age of 13. My aunt had 3 dogs so whenever I could I would watch them and stay there for a week at a time when she was out of town I fed them walked them even had to bathe them when they got into dirt. From then on my aunt gave other people my number and information and I started animal sitting all kinds of creatures ! It’s my favorite thing to do ! I’m currently working full time and I have a 2 year old little boy. I am extremely flexible and able to do any and all jobs ! So unfortunately have a German Shepard who isn’t around dogs all the time so I would have to work in my clients home. I am a very clean and neat person I never leave a mess. If I was to stay in your home I would clean all the dishes and wipe down counters and vacuum if you’d like all while talking care of your fur baby.
About: I have over three years of experience working in a veterinary clinic and dog shelter. I have three dogs of my own named Toast, CJ and Cooper. In addition to my boys I have one girl cat named Argent (Argie). I have had experience with medically complex dogs that have seizures, autoimmune disorders, complex eye issues and more. Owning exotic animals and horses has also been a passion of mine for over six years. If you can keep it as a pet, I have experience with it! I am available for select holidays, weekends, and overnight stays (subject to change). I have a part time job during the week which leaves my availability to only on weekends. Animals thrive on routine so I like to keep your pet(s) routine as close to normal as possible. I will send routine pictures and check ins while I am with your pet.

About: With over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for animals, I bring compassion, reliability, and deep understanding to every pet I care for. Previously, I've spent 6 years working with a Humane Society, gaining extensive experience with dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. This role strengthened my skills in animal behavior, stress reduction, medication administration, special-needs care, and recognizing health concerns early. Through this work, I’ve cared for everything from energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets and animals recovering from illness or trauma. I’m especially comfortable with: Dogs and cats of all sizes and breeds, Shy, anxious or energetic pets. Senior pets and special-needs care Medication administration (oral & topical) Basic training reinforcement and enrichment. My goal is always to provide a safe, calm, and loving environment so pets feel secure and cared for while their owners are away. I treat every animal as if they were my own and pride myself on clear communication and dependable care. I'm a stay at home mom and I homeschool. I am flexible with my day to day life and ready to accommodate to the needs of your pet. I have 5 dogs, 2 cats, a parakeet and a small hobby of caring for 3 goats and 7 chickens daily. So animal care is not a issue with my household. I have a fenced in yard which we utilize everyday. I have 5 dogs with different needs. I have 2 senior chihuahuas and a toy poodle, they enjoy their time snuggled on the couch watching TV. Or playing with small toys around the house. I also have a German Shepherd and a Husky. Both are high energy dogs, so they love going for walks, having playtime in the yard or working their minds with different enrichment toys or basic training. They all love other dogs, and are accepting to sharing their home.
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 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.”

About: I've been around dogs and animals my entire life. My oldest dog has been with me since I was 17 so she's going on 13 years old. I have a 5 year old Great Dane and German Australian mix that I've had since puppies. I'm great at teaching puppies sit, lay down, and recalling. (I'm not a professional by no means) I raised an elder iguana for 6 years before she passed, I grew up with cats of all personalities, and rabbits. I'm not shy or jittery of reptiles, amphibians, spiders or other insects. I work a very flexible work from home job that allows me to step away any time that I need. I can guarantee that your pet will not be alone for more than 4 hours Mon to Fri and Saturday and Sunday I usually have open availability I'm calm, I know stress signals in dogs and cats, I will meet with your animals at their own pace. I will follow any care instructions you have left and I will clean up any found accidents (puppies and other non house broke animals or elderly) including if their crates need cleaned as long as the supplies are easily found without me needing to open cabinets (on a counter or table) I always avoid people and other animals on walks to minimize all risks. I'm very careful when opening door in case someone decides to run, and I don't mind getting during/slobbered on
About: My dog sitting has been talked very highly of every time I’ve done it! I walk my pup every single morning and would love to walk yours for you!

Can’t wait to get to know you and your animal🫶🏻 I have dog sat many times for my friends and co workers, sometimes even weeks on end!

I can come to you to walk your dog or you can bring them to me if more convenient! I have a nice neighborhood for them to be walked in as well!
