Personalized care for your dog or cat - Samuels
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Samuels
“Tina was wonderful! She sent me daily updates on my baby along with pictures. She and her husband were very kind and my puppy to to her immediately. I will definitely use her again!”
“Julie could not have been a better host to our two doodles. She did exactly what she said she would and more. We plan to use her again the next time we travel. Rover provided good communication with her and we got prompt replies to any questions.”
“Heather was amazing and I will definitely use her again. She was accommodating to my last minute request for boarding. She was also responsive when I reached out and had a very caring spirit.”
“We are so thankful for the outstanding care Julie and her son provided our dog Star! Julie kept us updated daily with fun texts and pictures and gave us such peace of mind that Star was having a great time without us! :) Julie's care is genuine and devoted. They went above and beyond to treat Star! I can't say enough good things about her care and communication.”
“I CANNOT say enough good things about both Rick and his fiancé Annemarie! They were God-sent ANGELS for our wedding weekend! We were out of town - all of us were - and really needed someone who could keep Millie for us. Even though they stayed a half hour away, they were above-and-beyond accommodating, staying flexible with our schedule as things changed on our end. They came and picked her up from us, brought her back for rehearsal the same day so my nephew could practice walking her down the aisle, took her back home. They sent me pictures of her and their dog Buckley all throughout the weekend and she looked like she was having fun, getting good sleep and was comfortable. When Annemarie brought Millie to my wedding, she came dressed up to blend in with the other guests and I never heard Millie bark the whole time. She stayed around in the hot heat for pictures so Millie could be in a few pictures with us before taking her back to their home. Finally, they kept her through an extra day for us so we could have a little breather time before we had to pack everything up at our hotel room and head back home. We could not have made it through our wedding weekend without Annemarie and Rick's help. All of their story-sharing about what Millie was up to with Buckley all weekend was so nice to see intermittently as we were busy buzzing about doing our wedding activities. We are so GRATEFUL for everything they did and it's clear Millie was well taken care of and comfortable because she was so calm and relaxed when Rick returned her to us! Truly extra sweet! Thanks again for everything!”
“Kimberly was great! She treated our dog like her own. She updated us and took her at very short notice. We were nervous about leaving our dog but she made us comfortable and would do it all over again.”
“Cassie was great! She was very flexible and caring. It is obvious that she adores animals. Our Cavalier has a great time. She had such a great time she didn’t seem all that excited to see me when normally she goes crazy when she greets me. Cassie shared a lot of pictures of our girl making friends with her family and various pets. I would definitely use her again if we come back to Bardstown again!”
“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”
“I was very, very happy with Lynne. She watched my dog, Buddy for 4 days, and sent pictures and updates every day. I could tell he was happy, and I was especially glad that she has an fenced in back yard, and that she let him on the furniture and her bed, because he's spoiled! I will definitely let him stay with her again. Great experience!”
“Maverick has a great time while I was out of town. Pictures and videos sent each day. I would recommend Dailyn to watch any animal! Maverick will definitely be back! They even sent home a framed photo with some other treats and toys for him.”
“Megan was great with our two beagle mixes. She sent updates and pictures and I felt very calm and at ease while we were away. She was very flexible when I had to change the plans multiple times and worked with us to accommodate all our needs.”
“Michael and Elizabeth were great! They were so amazing and accommadating when my original plans changed and got moved forward. They sent me pictures of my furbaby and I know she had a great time! We will definitely be using them again in the future ❤️”
“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!”
“Shunita boarded my puppy and helped nurse him back to health in a time where he needed extra loving, and care just like he was her own! Takes great care and pride in the babies she keeps.”
“Melody was absolutely fantastic! She made sure to ease any anxiety that I had about Muffins stay before hand. And gave updates and pictures throughout her stay. Muffin is typically all over the place with energy throughout the day but when I picked her up from Melody not a peep, she basically rested the rest of the evening!!! Oh and she smelled really good too !!!! Melody is also one who has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to puppy and dog care so do not be afraid to ask for she is super sweet and helps in any way that she can. Muffin will definitely be returning soon! Thanks again Melody ?”

Cat caregivers near you - Samuels
About: Cats are drawn to my calm energy. Though I am allergic to cats and they won’t be able to stay at my house, I love them very much and will be happy to check in, feed, and play with your kitty friend if you need me.
“Fantastic, had to book last minute and he saved us from cancelling our trip. Also cleaned up my dogs mess when she puked instead of leaving it like most do. Very much appreciated.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 13 years old and have always had a deep love for animals. Over the years, I’ve helped rescue and care for many pups, giving them a safe, loving, and happy environment. Since high school, I’ve also provided trusted house sitting and pet care for families in my neighborhood, gaining experience with dogs of different sizes, breeds, personalities, and routines. I currently have two large dogs of my own, so I’m very comfortable handling bigger breeds, high-energy pups, feeding schedules, long walks, playtime, and maintaining consistent routines. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away, and I always treat every dog like family. I’m dependable, attentive, patient, and highly communicative, and I make it a priority to keep owners updated with messages and photos for peace of mind. Whether it’s dog walking, overnight house sitting, administering basic care, or providing companionship and attention, I’m committed to making sure your pets feel loved, exercised, and stress-free in your absence. I am currently home from college for the summer and have plenty of free time during my day to take care of your pups! I am available to walk your doggo anytime during the day and want to make this process stress-free. If there is a time that your pup does better walking, I want to make that possible for you. For dog walking and pet sitting, I focus on creating a safe, fun, and comfortable experience for every pet. During walks, I make sure dogs get the exercise, attention, and stimulation they need while also prioritizing safety and positive behavior. I’m comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and energy levels, including larger breeds, since I have two large dogs of my own. For pet sitting, I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I make sure pets feel comfortable, loved, and relaxed while their owners are away by giving them plenty of companionship and attention. I’m dependable, patient, and highly attentive to each dog’s individual needs and personality. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident knowing their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for.
“I am so thankful for Cassie for the diligent care she gave to our 18 year old cat who is very finicky. Cassie was patient with her allowing Patches to call the shots. Cassie sent multiple photos of her each day making our lives much more at ease knowing she was in good hands. God bless her!”
“Rylee is very kind with animals and does a great job spending time with your pets. She took care of our three cats and all went well. We have one antisocial cat and we chose her because of annother review suggesting she was good so we tried her out. Our cat did warm up to her a bit which was great. She sends pictures and communicates daily.”
“I am so grateful to Brittney for watching my two cats while I was away for almost two weeks. Brittney gives my fur girls a lot of TLC. I can see such a big difference from Brittney’s care and some previous sitters because my cats are more emotionally secure when I get back and wanting to interact. Brittney is trustworthy and thorough in her communication. I can count on her to follow directions and she pays attention to details and when I have had to change instructions from a prior time I had to be away. Knowing Brittney was taking care of my cats allowed me to be much more confident and secure about being very far away and for a long time. Thank you thank you thank you Brittney! 💗🙏🏻😻😻🫶🏻”
“AMAZING! Will totally use Ashley again. She is the sweetest and would highly recommend. She gave updates, cute pictures and I had a very relaxing vacation and was able to fully trust her with my fur baby! Thanks Ashley!!!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Samuels
“Julie provided outstanding daycare for our golden retriever, Beau. We were visiting the area and needed a place for him to stay while we explored a distillery that didn't allow dogs. Julie replied to my message quickly and we worked out a day schedule. She provided us with photos of Beau while we were gone and our pickup was smooth. Beau was very happy and relaxed. I highly recommend Julie for dog daycare.”
About: My first dog was a Golden Retriever, and I was hooked! I wanted a career working with dogs and was a dog groomer at a boarding facility for 20 years, working with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personality types. Several of my grooming clients also boarded in my home. Personally, I’ve raised puppies and adopted seniors, so have experience with training and administering medications. I’ve started a second career and now work from home. My office has three dog beds, and my little dog is waiting for a friend to come over! My yard is small, but fenced, and I can take the furry friends out as often as they need to go. If your dog prefers a walk-about, I can accommodate that as well. Please note, due to my insurance I cannot accept Staffordshire terriers, pitbulls, or bully mixes of any kind. In addition, although the Rover weight class is 16-40 pounds, I only accept dogs that are 25 pounds or less. I want your dog to feel at home in my home! I’m happy to send you pictures during the day, or FaceTime you. I can administer meds, and will adhere to their own feeding/walking schedule. Because I work from home, your dog will have constant companionship. I have a ten pound Boston Terrier who loves playing with other dogs, but I’m in a three bedroom house, so there’s plenty of space if anyone needs time apart. My dog stays in my office with me when I’m working, and your dog can too! If your fur baby does not need constant supervision they would be free to roam around the house. I also have two crates if needed. My fenced yard is great for potty breaks, and I can also do leash walks, either with my dog or only yours if preferred.
“Cassie was fantastic! Franklin had such a great time playing with new friends. We were in town visiting and we were so happy to know how well he was taken care of while we were out with friends. I highly recommend her for all dog care needs!”
About: My animal experience goes way back to childhood. At the age of 7 I started in 4h, learning about animal husbandry. By the age of 13 I was volunteering at the local riding stables. By high school, I was working at the local animal shelter, volunteering with local rescues and advancing my education in dog training, with hopes of getting into service dogs. At age 19 I started working at a vet clinic This just advanced my love of animals and their care even more! Fast forward to today, and I own my own in home grooming salon ❤️ I have continued to volunteer with the local rescues and shelter every chance I get. 2 years ago I was blessed with the opportunity to become a puppy raiser for a veteran service dog foundation. That was the very best experience i could of asked for! My knowledge of dogs extends into training, grooming and care. I'm knowledgeable with cats and other small animals as well! Coming from a farm and vet background, I have experience with just about every animal including exotics. My personal dogs are all very well socialized with other animals of all kinds. They all have extensive training and are completely safe with others. They know just how to make our new guest feel right at home! All my boarder dogs are treated as family, allowed on beds and furniture and cage free unless otherwise requested. Bath or grooming add ons are always available! All baths/ grooms come complete with a cute Pic! Please feel free to reach out with any questions ❤️ I work from home in my at home grooming salon, so your pet will never be alone. Should I need to leave the house for small errands, there is still someone left at home, or the animal will have a safe enclosed room to themselves. My Backyard is attached to the house and fully enclosed with a large wooden privacy fence. Pets are never left outside unattended and are kept in my view at all times.
“Look no further, Renee is a GEM! My husband and I were RVing in Kentucky and needed a dog sitter at the last minute. Renee not only took Beans in last minute but truly is amazing with Dogs! Beans had so much fun she was so sad to leave! Thank you so much Renee! If we are ever back in Kentucky we will be reaching out!”
“Megan was lovely! She was willing to watch 3 dogs for our family fairly last minute and was super gracious. We let her know our mild concerns about our dog's anxiety and she was very kind and we knew not to worry. Great opportunity, very flexible within reason and sent us some nice checkin messages to let us know how our dog was acclimating. Great experience!”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals all my life. I have vet tech experience, and dog training experience. Animals are a huge passion of mine. Sometimes I like them more than people 😉 I have a completely open schedule. I do work for myself so I can always work around yours and my schedule to give your furry family members the care and attention they deserve. I know how to read the body language of animals. I know how to give medication. I can do anything for your pet that you normally do.
“Rylee took such great care of my dog Knox! He has separation anxiety, but he adjusted quickly in her calm and welcoming home. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. She sent regular updates with photos and videos, which I really appreciated. Knox looked relaxed and happy, he clearly felt comfortable with her. I’ll definitely be booking with Rylee again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter on Rover!”
“Bella spent the afternoon with Taylor and it couldn't have gone better. Taylor is very warm and welcoming and immediately makes you (and your dog) feel right at home. Bella had a wonderful time playing with her friends in this pleasant environment and I felt good leaving her with someone so caring and competent. I would highly recommend her to everyone looking for a sitter for their pet. Also loved the pics.”
“Our little had a great time hanging out with Dailyn's dogs Mia and Coco. We receivedsevetsl pictures and a few videos of them playing during his stay. Leah, her daughter was very sweet and attentive to Coco. And we got a nice gift bag with a framed picture of Coco when we picked him up. He was happy when we got there to pick him up. Coco was well cared for.”
About: I've had a fur baby in my arms since I was a child. Not only did I raise my own, but I've kept my friends, my co-workers and my son's dogs while they were out of town, for a day, a week and sometimes longer. I cared for my son's senior boy while he worked, and then he brought the newest baby to me everyday she when she was a puppy, so she wasn't home alone and I could potty train her with love. I raised our German shepherd with my sons from the time she and my youngest were both just 8 weeks old. When Libby was almost 18 yo we had to have our vet assist her in crossing the rainbow bridge. From there I got my first tiny dog, a little boy named Dexter, Chihuahua 6.6 lbs, and then shortly after I got Danika, Chihuahua 5.5 lbs. They went everywhere with me, vacations, nail salon, shopping. They had a purse they loved to jump right in and 2 booster seats so they were secured safely in my car. I lost Dexter to heart disease at 14 yo and poor little Danika was lost without him. I adopted Lucylle, Chihuahua 6 lbs, she was 2 yo. She was left at the vet by her previous family, that never came back to get her. She was very aggressive towards everyone in the beginning and it took me 3 months of patience and love to bring her out of it. By that time her and Danika were best friends, and loving companions, of course they went everywhere with me. We lost Danika just few months ago, she was 16 yo. That's when I decided to start my journey with Rover, to bring some added joy into mine and Lucylle's life and give other fur babies a safe and loving place to visit when family were away. I retired 04-2024, Lucylle and I have plenty of time on our hands. I bought a patio home, with a nice fenced back yard, where I sit in the morning or anytime during the day/evening and watch Lucylle go out and do her business or just play. We take walks around the neighborhood or down at the walking trail. My neighbors are also dog lovers, they just love little Lucylle. I have a fenced back yard for them to play in with my girl, and I keep a watchful eye on them when they are outside. I can crate your baby if needed, as I do my own sometimes. I have little beds and/or a blanket for them to snuggle when they are napping. Being retired gives me plenty of time for your fur baby (and mine). Caring, playing and loving them as if they were my own.

“Courtney was very professional and had good communication. She invited us in and introduced her family. She has a fully fenced in back. She also provided a complete pee/poop/eat/nap report. Daisy seemed very happy. We'd definitely use Courtney's services again.”
“Melody is amazing and treated my Boseman Duke Ellington Lord Baltimore VII as her own. Her family is wonderful! I received pics and videos and regular updates. He's my first pup so she provided advice for me as a new puppy owner. Bosey adores Melody!!!”
About: I cared for (and spoiled) many relatives' pets when they went on vacation through the years. I also lovingly cared for my elderly parents for over a decade. I am a creative and crafty person, and I enjoy painting, sewing, and gardening. Being home most of the time, I would enjoy the company of furry friends! I only use natural cleaning solutions in my home; pets are provided filtered water. Common sense safety precautions that would be taken with any pet or with small children are implemented.

About: Having owned many dogs over many years, from a dachshund to a large lab mix, I am comfortable with all ages and sizes.

I can’t get a new dog quite yet, but I am ready to be your dog’s new best friend! I am currently working part-time so I have a pretty open, flexible schedule during the week to play with, walk, or even bathe your pup! I know how important your pets are and I strive to keep their safety and happiness at the top of my priority list. I can check in on your pets during the day to give them a quick potty break, or I can give them a nice walk to get some energy out.

About: Dogs have been apart of my life since I was a small child--we had a couple different pups while I was growing up. As I got older, friends, coworkers, and family members began to ask me if I could dog-sit for them. Even weeks at a time! I quickly began to gain more experience, a deeper level of responsibility, and a greater depth of love for all doggos. I currently work part time night shift! I only work 2 days a week, but this is from 7pm-7am. All other days I have full availability with your furry crew! I would treat your baby the same way you do! I don't mind helping potty train, crating, or other needed processes for a healthy and happy dog. I will adhere to your schedule and time frame for feedings, walks, potty breaks, etc.

About: My family has had dogs my entire life. Several years ago a neighbor of ours fell ill and needed surgery. I walked her dog every day for three months to use the bathroom and have play time outdoors until she healed. When she went on vacations, I would dog sit for two weeks at a time. I enjoyed caring for the home and her dog so much that I continued with these services for several other people. Everything from playing with their dogs, walking them, taking them out for potty breaks, feeding them, and taking care of their home. I've come to love them and still have great relationships with the families. To those reading, it would be my pleasure to care for your animals as well!

I have dog and cat sat for a house with 7 cats and dogs multiple times, so I’ve become accustomed to the temperament of pets. Nothing brings me joy like having a furry friend to accompany me on a walk around town. I am an attentive pedestrian and I know the rules of the road as a driver as well as on the sidewalk. I value nature and recognise the need to help dogs and cats by cleaning up after them in public. Overall, I’m a responsible pet-owner, and I understand the busy schedules of human-animals, and how important it is to ensure that our non-human friends get the attention and outdoor time that they deserve and love! I’m currently available for walks most mornings and pet setting any day of the week. I can accommodate early morning walks and any feeding schedules. I understand the need for pets to have frequent trips outside, and some time cuddling on the couch as well. I’m able to handle dogs of various sizes and temperments. Treats are a must if you approve and provide treats you like to give pups. I prioritize keeping dogs on leash when out of the house to make sure they stick by me.

“Julie could not have been a better host to our two doodles. She did exactly what she said she would and more. We plan to use her again the next time we travel. Rover provided good communication with her and we got prompt replies to any questions.”
“I CANNOT say enough good things about both Rick and his fiancé Annemarie! They were God-sent ANGELS for our wedding weekend! We were out of town - all of us were - and really needed someone who could keep Millie for us. Even though they stayed a half hour away, they were above-and-beyond accommodating, staying flexible with our schedule as things changed on our end. They came and picked her up from us, brought her back for rehearsal the same day so my nephew could practice walking her down the aisle, took her back home. They sent me pictures of her and their dog Buckley all throughout the weekend and she looked like she was having fun, getting good sleep and was comfortable. When Annemarie brought Millie to my wedding, she came dressed up to blend in with the other guests and I never heard Millie bark the whole time. She stayed around in the hot heat for pictures so Millie could be in a few pictures with us before taking her back to their home. Finally, they kept her through an extra day for us so we could have a little breather time before we had to pack everything up at our hotel room and head back home. We could not have made it through our wedding weekend without Annemarie and Rick's help. All of their story-sharing about what Millie was up to with Buckley all weekend was so nice to see intermittently as we were busy buzzing about doing our wedding activities. We are so GRATEFUL for everything they did and it's clear Millie was well taken care of and comfortable because she was so calm and relaxed when Rick returned her to us! Truly extra sweet! Thanks again for everything!”
“Kimberly was great! She treated our dog like her own. She updated us and took her at very short notice. We were nervous about leaving our dog but she made us comfortable and would do it all over again.”
“Cassie was great! She was very flexible and caring. It is obvious that she adores animals. Our Cavalier has a great time. She had such a great time she didn’t seem all that excited to see me when normally she goes crazy when she greets me. Cassie shared a lot of pictures of our girl making friends with her family and various pets. I would definitely use her again if we come back to Bardstown again!”
“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”
“Maverick has a great time while I was out of town. Pictures and videos sent each day. I would recommend Dailyn to watch any animal! Maverick will definitely be back! They even sent home a framed photo with some other treats and toys for him.”
“Michael and Elizabeth were great! They were so amazing and accommadating when my original plans changed and got moved forward. They sent me pictures of my furbaby and I know she had a great time! We will definitely be using them again in the future ❤️”
“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!”
“Melody was absolutely fantastic! She made sure to ease any anxiety that I had about Muffins stay before hand. And gave updates and pictures throughout her stay. Muffin is typically all over the place with energy throughout the day but when I picked her up from Melody not a peep, she basically rested the rest of the evening!!! Oh and she smelled really good too !!!! Melody is also one who has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to puppy and dog care so do not be afraid to ask for she is super sweet and helps in any way that she can. Muffin will definitely be returning soon! Thanks again Melody ?”
“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!”
“Renee did a great job taking care of our two dogs while we were away. She sent regular updates and pictures of them playing and having fun. I think one of our dogs is actually disappointed that we came back because he was having so much fun playing with the other dogs at Renee's house.”
“Heather is amazing! Lacey loves to stay with her and she always meets new friends. We can tell by Lacey’s demeanor when we get home that she feels comfortable and secure with Heather! We already have her booked for our next adventure.”
“Cristaylee was fantastic and would definitely use again! She even let Frankie stay an extra day when we had a last minute change of our plan. He came back so happy and tired from playing all weekend.”
“Dan was amazing ! I could tell by the pictures and videos that Neghan really enjoyed himself! He had a lot of walks and potty breaks. I would highly recommend Dan. She is outstanding !”
“I previously had boarded my dog before trying rover, and I will never go back. Angela was AMAZING! She took and shared lots of photos and updates while we were on vacation. Bruno loved playing with her dogs and kids, too! I would recommend her to anyone!”
