“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!”
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.
“We are officially repeat clients! Jordan and Collin are exactly what we’ve been looking for in a caretaker… responsible and kind. And they keep us well-informed. We’re thankful to have found them!”
“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“Shelby was an exceptional dog sitter! She is very loving to our pets and made me at ease right from the start. She was great at communicating with me and treated my fur babies just like they were her own. I know they had a great time. I will without hesitation use her again!”
“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: 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
“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!”

I also have a house with a fenced in yard.
“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!”

“We were very pleased with Kassidy and will certainly book with her again. 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. She even checked on and fed our birds, which we didn't count on her doing, as some people are not comfortable with large parrots. She did wonderful and we are very thankful for 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!

“We had an excellent experience with Amanda caring for our two cats She took great care of them and went far beyond our expectations We loved getting the daily pictures and text updates Our fur babies seemed to love her Highly recommend”
“Holly took care of my two cats for five days. She updated me at twice once a day, took photos/videos, and was fast to respond. My boys were very happy in her care and well taken care of, and warmed up quick to her home. I couldn't have asked for a better sitter for my boys. I could tell she truly enjoyed taking care of them and loved having them over. 10/10!”
About: I’m a middle school teacher first, but I’ve had dogs all my life and have been dogsitting for the past five years through word of mouth and friend recommendations. I started then and loved it, so thought I would expand by joining Rover! We are a pet-loving family who loves having animals as “extra family” in our homes to give their own family peace of mind while they are at work or traveling. During the summer break, I’m available during the day, nights, and weekends. During the school year I am only available for overnight and weekend sitting. We have a large fenced in yard and a friend-loving golden retriever and a really big 2 year old helper. Pets kept in our home are treated just like our pets. Some of our clients even pile up in our bed! We want your pet to feel as comfortable as possible with us as it can already be stressful being separated from family.
About: I've been working with animals since I was 10, but officially didnt start major things until a I was able to join a rescue. Since then, I've been transporting, bathing/nail trimming, medicating, feeding, and working with animals for a few years now, from the rescue I worked at to the boarding facility I currently do. Big, small, cat, or dog, I am fairly comfortable with all sorts of animals and would love to walk your dogs to the park, or play with your cats and dogs at home, take them to the groomers or bathe them myself, and send you picture updates if/when you would like. Whatever is needed to make your babies feel safe and loved until you return, and to put your mind at ease while your away. No matter what, I would love the opportunity to expand my experience and work with any animal I can, and would love to work with you! I am currently working 4 days a week day shift, 8am - 5pm (though depending on the busyness I can leave sooner) and I can make sure I stop by during my lunch or before/after my shift to check on your pets. I will follow whatever routine is standard for your pet whether they enjoy long walks or just need short little box multiple times a day, and if it happens to be a house sitting situation I will do anything I can to maintain their normal routine and give them extra comfort if there's any kind of distressing things around like storms or situations. Whatever the animal needs I will provide

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!
“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: 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.
“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.”
“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: 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 a very friendly neighborhood, people drive slow just incase I make sure to take the dogs out back. 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.
About: My fiance and I are lucky to be allowed to sleep in the home that belongs to our dogs by Gus the Goose, Bianca Jane, and our cat Cyrus Been. They live better lives than most humans and people often comment on how well behaved and socialized they are. With that said, they are not that “trained”. They snuggle in bed, lie on the couch and Gus barks at the Amazon man. I am willing to board, day sit and/or walk your furry creature(s). I am available most times and willing to work with your schedule. Obviously overnights will need planning but I can easily pop over for a potty break or for a walk most days. My prices can also be negotiable. I believe I covered most of this, but I’m pretty open. I will cater to your dog as you do. Mine are treated like members of the family, but still as animals. If you want me to treat your animal in any specific way, I will of course oblige. Most of my pics are of just my pets. I often forget to snap a photo while playing but I am more than willing to take pics of your creature all day long if you so desire. But left to my own devices I’ll send around 3 a day while boarding if requested. I have an open schedule. I’m very type A organized, so I generally know well In advance if something may impede my schedule. I can help out any hours of the day or night generally. I don’t have a fence, but I do have a long 40ft lead with nothing to get tangled on. My dog Gus doesn’t require a leash at home but I would never let your dog off leash. I keep a door closure system in place to keep dogs away from the litter box. Toys are out and about to be played with freely in my home. And I may just show up with a new toy or snack for your animal.
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.

About: I’m a middle school teacher first, but I’ve had dogs all my life and have been dogsitting for the past five years through word of mouth and friend recommendations. I started then and loved it, so thought I would expand by joining Rover! We are a pet-loving family who loves having animals as “extra family” in our homes to give their own family peace of mind while they are at work or traveling. During the summer break, I’m available during the day, nights, and weekends. During the school year I am only available for overnight and weekend sitting. We have a large fenced in yard and a friend-loving golden retriever and a really big 2 year old helper. Pets kept in our home are treated just like our pets. Some of our clients even pile up in our bed! We want your pet to feel as comfortable as possible with us as it can already be stressful being separated from family.

“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. He was happy and tired at the end of each walk. This was the first time using Rover.com. Home recovering from an accident and Whitney saved the day. Considering getting on a weekly schedule. ?”
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’ve taken a year long course at Liberty K-9 in Hawsville, KY, learning how to teach and instruct dogs. I love them. Dogs are interesting and intelligent creatures. And each has their own personality. Let me care for your dog the way I would care for my own. I am currently a stay at home mother of two school aged children. And I have copious amounts of availability. And I am very flexible and willing to work around schedules. We have a two story home with a fenced in back yard. Lots of room to run around and play. I also have big couches for lazy dogs and warm beds with kiddos who love dogs. We also have a guest room for dogs that prefer not sharing a bed with a kiddo. We have a dachshund for a playmate. We have kennels for average and large size dogs. And I have a pass for the bathing station at pet supplies plus for all the bathing needs.

“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!”
“We are officially repeat clients! Jordan and Collin are exactly what we’ve been looking for in a caretaker… responsible and kind. And they keep us well-informed. We’re thankful to have found them!”
“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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 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!”
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.
“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!”
“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.
