“Jennifer and Ryan were so great! They sent me photos and updates of my girl that helped me know she was well cared for. They’re also very communicative and supportive of any needs that may arise. Would highly recommend them to anyone needing a sitter!”

“Shelby treated Ollie like he was her own and he was spoiled to no end! We are always worried at first when it comes to leaving him with strangers but it’s safe to say that Shelby has become part of Ollie’s family! We were given updates with pictures every day we were away without even asking. We will be using Shelby’s sitting services for all our future vacations!”

“Katie and her family were amazing with Duke and truly came through for us at the last minute. We’re incredibly grateful for the care, attention, and love they showed him.”

“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!”

“Nathalie was great. She kept Willy Pete while we went on vacation and kept me updated daily with information about his day and also sent video and pictures daily. Will definitely use her again and most definitely recommend her for your next dog boarding needs and more. Thank You so much for the great experience.”

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.

“Victoria presented w/ maturity, experience, sincere interest, and a high level of commitment to my animals and with the duties I had outlined. She remained very conscientious, thorough and responsible throughout her visits, always sending pics and updates (even though I could not sign in to my Rover account). I am so glad I waited to make my final decision w/ her!”


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!
“Ayla-Lynette did an amazing job with my two kitties, one of whom required daily injections and was not easy! Was so grateful that they were in her care, she was wonderful at keeping me updated and sending photos in the lake. I highly recommend her to anyone reading this, she will take wonderful care of your animals. Thank you again Ayla-Lynette!”
About: My Yorkie, Mocha, was my baby and love of my life for 16 years. He recently left this life leaving a hole in my heart. He was special needs and required medication and a lot of specialized care. I will treat yours just as I did Mocha. I have a big yard, plenty of good toys, and a nice neighborhood for walks. I can even make homemade meals if your fur babies would like! I have experience with puppies who need lots of attention on up to senior dogs who like a quiet, relaxing atmosphere, as well as special needs animals who need medicine or special care. I also have experience with cats and birds. I am an active bird foster but recently my last foster was adopted, so I don't have any birds in my care at the moment. I took a Cesar Millan (The Dog Whisperer) master class which gave expert advice on handling aggressive or no so well behaved animals. I agree that most people need training, along with animals lol I am currently a stay at home mom. My 15 year old son is at school during the day. We also just had grandma move in with us so there is someone home at all times. So I am available 24/7. I have a unfenced yard but it is big and abilities to crate if necessary. Smoke free home and I don't drink. Other than that, I will give your fur baby free rein of the house. I'm not picky about sharing couches or cuddles! I understand pets are more comfortable at their own home, so I am open to coming to you.
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 am having a Baby the end of November. 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: I have had a variety of pets my whole life, and love spending time with animals. As a teacher I am available all day on weekends and in June and July, and am home by 3:30 throughout the week during the school year. With me your pet will receive excellent care, and all the love and cuddles they can stand! I have two children, ages 14 and 13. They love to cuddle on furry friends, but are old enough to understand if your pet prefers less affection. I have cared for dogs ranging from toy sized to giant, so regardless of your dog’s size we will welcome him or her here! I have experience with senior dogs as well, just recently losing my beloved 17 year old mixed breed, so I am familiar with the extra care needed for elderly dogs. Whether in your home or mine, I would love to care for your pet! I work from 7:30-3:00 Monday through Friday during the school year, and am off from late May through early August, during which time I am available all week. At your home I can provide most any service you request, including feeding, potty breaks, walks and exercise play, and of course belly rubs and head scratches!

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.
“Katie was amazing with communication and went above and beyond with her level of patience with my little guy. Daycare and boarding is new for my dog and she makes it easier for all of us to adjust.”

“Nathalie was amazing! She was so warm and kind and made my shy Frankie at ease. Great communication, and she took him on a walk which was super nice. Will definitely rebook with Nathalie if back in town!”

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: 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: I have worked with humane societies since I was 12. I am 6'ft tall so big dogs don't scare me. I have yet to meet a dog I don't love from the gentle giants to the tea cup heros I am currently unemployed and looking for work while I go back to school. I have plenty of time during the day and energy to play with your doggos I would never put an animal in situation that could lead to danger. I strive to keep their routines the same while doing my best to provide mental and physical stimulation.
“Kayla is wonderful with our Dottie girl! Dottie is so excited to see her. She is a new pup and Kayla is so patient, kind and playful with her! Kayla is incredibly communicative, she is always timely and gives us such peace of mind knowing our Dottie is in great hands! We feel so fortunate to get to work with Kayla!”

About: I have 15+ years of experience caring for animals and can provide multiple references. I began working through Rover in Northern Colorado 2 years ago and have continued to do so in Kentucky. This is something I do part time, therefore the only services I currently offer are dog walking and drop in visits. My experience is not limited to dogs/cats. I have also cared for a broad range of species including ferrets, birds, fish, rabbits, horses, goats, hedgehogs, hamsters, guinea pigs and even a tortoise! If you are looking for a reliable person who is both safe to be in your home and care for your animals, I can promise I am that person. While I do this part time, my schedule is flexible. If I commit to you, I will honor that commitment. I take pride in being punctual and understand the importance of keeping your fur baby on his/her routine. I currently do not provide care for animals in my home. When at the clients home, I try to provide care to the animal just as they receive when their owner is there. I believe it is important to stick to the owners routine and provide consistency for the pet.
About: Hello, my name is Olivia and I love dogs! I have enjoyed taking care of dogs ever since I was little because they always put me in a good mood. I am a responsible college graduate who will primarily be home in Owensboro. I clean up after myself and am on time. I am also a very active person, so I can walk dogs multiple times every day. I've owned and taken care of 4 dogs with my family, and I have experience caring for multiple sizes, breeds, and personalities. My schedule is open and flexible mostly on weekends (some availability during the week), so I will be able to work or check in majority of the time during the coming months. I’m home most of the time on weekends and occasionally during the weekdays. I work a full time job during the week but I get breaks, so I have free time to check in on any dogs in my care! I stay with dogs most of the time I’m sitting them. I go on regular walks, so they’d get plenty of exercise. I make sure to make dogs as comfortable and happy as possible while their owners are away.
About: I’m a passionate animal lover with 10+ years' diverse experience, including vet clinic, grooming, puppy training, and dog boarding. I pride myself in being organized, devoted, and dedicated to exceptional pet care for your loved ones. With a wide-open schedule, I'm available every day for walks, playtime, and boarding. Weekdays or weekends, I'm here to ensure your pet's happiness and well-being. In a loving home setting, I prioritize walks and dog park visits for joy, always prioritizing safety. Compassion and trust define my care, ensuring a secure and contented experience for your furry friend.
