“Sandra is the best! She takes excellent care of Barnaby, and always sends pictures and updates. We had some issues trying to get back to him and ended up not getting back until way after we planned on, but she was very understanding and happy to care for him longer.”
“The pups seem to have had a great time getting spoiled! We got plenty of updates on how they were doing during the stay, which helped immensely! They commonly get upset/stressed with traditional boarding, so this was a great alternative. Would recommend!”
“When we needed a sitter last minute on vacation Emily came to the rescue and was one of the best dog sitters we have ever had. Emily sent pictures through the day, followed all our care instructions and loved our baby like we do.”
“I am so thankful to have found Melody. My dog, Opal, took to her right away, and she LOVES being over there for daycare and overnight stays. The times are super flexible, and I’m thankful to have someone that loves my dog as much as I do! I get pictures and videos on how Opal is doing throughout the day. Definitely the best dog sitter in Lex!”
“She took amazing care of my dog while I was away. She kept me updated with photos. My dog was happy and well cared , he looks so healthy . Highly recommend. --- You can adjust it as needed!”
“Jason and Brooke were great! They kept me up to date with Rupp and sent pictures. Rupp loved hanging out with their daughter and sleeping with her at night. We will definitely use their services again!”
“Ann, was awesome. She was able to accommodate my last minute request. She also met me and picked up Charly. She sent some regular updates and even took some great pictures of Charly.”
“Ashley is great!! Storm came back worn out but in the best way! I don’t have a fenced In yard, so makes my heart happy for her to have friends to play with and be able to run freely! She was able to get my last minute, and worked with me on times! Highly recommend, absolutely my go to now!”
“I can only really know how things went for my cat Teacup when she is boarded by how she behaves once she’s back home. After her 2 night stay with Natasha she seemed happy to be home, but otherwise very calm. Unlike other times when she meowed non-stop for 2 days as if she were trying to tell me all was not as it should have been. This time she hardly meowed at all. Natasha and her 2 daughters seem comfortable with both cats and dogs which of course reassures their guests that they are safe and loved. For Teacup that is everything. I think Teacup wouldn’t mind a return visit in the future. I can recommend Natasha for cat boarding.”
“Valerie was excellent! She took great of our dog, sent regular updates, and managed his eye condition well. An added bonus is her sweet dog Ollie who was great company for our dog and kept him at ease.”
“Audrey and Samuel did a great job caring for my puppy! She was exhausted when we picked her up so I think she had a lot of fun! They also offered to do a meet-and-great which is great.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats for many years and have experience pet sitting for multiple families, including drop-in visits and overnight care. I’ve cared for cats regularly over several years, watched dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals of all kinds. I also volunteer through Doggy Day Out at the shelter, where I help walk and socialize dogs, and I grew up with a family dog, so caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I enjoy walks, playtime, cuddles, and making sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. I have experience incorporating caregiving and pet care into my daily routine and enjoy creating consistent schedules for feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship. I am organized, dependable, and make it a priority to ensure pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. My schedule allows me to provide regular walks, check-ins, enrichment, and quality time, and I always work to follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel at home. I spend a lot of time at home and have a flexible schedule, allowing me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, and consistency throughout the week. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routines as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and reduce stress. I make sure pets have fresh water, are fed on schedule, and receive plenty of attention, enrichment, playtime, and companionship. I prioritize safety by keeping doors and outdoor areas secure, being attentive during walks and potty breaks, and cleaning litter boxes as needed. I also provide updates and photos so owners feel informed, reassured, and connected while away.
“Erin as very accommodating. Responded promptly to all messages. Sent pictures and took very good care of our little puppy. I was very thankful to have her watch our fur baby and when we go out of town again she will be our first choice!!”
“Fantastic as always. Hardy comes home worn out every time lol and when I drop him off he doesn’t even tell me bye, just runs straight in to start playing. This is how I know he loves coming over :) Thanks for always taking such good care of my baby!”
“Amber and her family were great with my Mika. She sent me updates on how Mika was doing and was flexible as my schedule is a bit all over the place right now. I will book with her again as this was a fantastic experience!”

“Kayla has watched our fur babies on several occasions. She does a great job of caring for everyone’s special needs and communicates with me often. I would highly recommend Kayla!”
About: I am a dog mom of two! They are my world, but I have never met an animal I didn’t like!! Small or big they are all special and need love!! I work as a caregiver in the evenings Monday through Thursday 3:30-10 and Friday 3:30-8. So I am available all other hours of the day. I also have the flexibility if I must to make a quick stop by during working hours if I need. I have a fenced in yard and two dogs who love making new friends and having play dates! I believe that the house is there home and they are welcome to sleep and lay on the couches and beds!!
About: I've taken care of cats my whole life. I have a cat of my own named motzie! I do have 2 dogs as well in my home. They are cat lovers as well! I look forward to meeting and taking great care of your precious pet!
About: My first job was working at a vet clinic with dogs and 20 years later I’m still passionate about what I do! I am a certified pet care technician with a lifetime of experience working with dogs. Also pet CPR certified. I have a dog grooming area on-site at home as well. Can sent text and photo updates. Professional, experienced, and I love dogs. I Look forward to meeting you and your fur baby! I work with dog rescue and dedicate my life to dogs bc it's what I love! I am a current member of APDT Association of professional dog trainers, working towards my dog training certification. I love all breeds but I especially love working with bully breeds. Many boarding facilities do not allow these breeds of dog. Most are just big cuddle bugs, and I am happy to oblige!
About: I’ve been surrounded by cats my whole life—both indoor and outdoor—so I know how to read their moods and keep them happy. I’ve also gained hands-on experience working at a humane society and a veterinarian’s office, giving me confidence in feeding, administering medication, and spotting health concerns. I love making sure every cat feels safe, loved, and well cared for—from playtime to keeping their litter box sparkling clean. Your furry family members will be in caring hands!
“Tayler has been very professional, friendly, and a great person all around when it has come to dropping in on my Owen. I’m extremely satisfied with her communication. She goes above and beyond to spend a few extra minutes with boy, making sure he gets the positive attention he needs. Thanks so much Tayler!!”
“Katie is the best. Our cats are not real sociable but they seem to take to Katie right away. We will definitely continue using her. You won’t be disappointed should you decide to book Katie to care for your fur babies.”
About: I’ve been caring for cats for over 15 years and truly understand them at every stage of life. I had my own cat for 15 years before she passed two years ago, so I have extensive experience with long-term care and senior cat needs, including patience, comfort, and gentle handling. I currently have two cats, Leo and Loki, who I’ve had for the past two years, so I’m very familiar with younger, more playful cats as well. This gives me a well-rounded understanding of different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I’m confident in all aspects of cat care, including feeding, litter box maintenance, playtime, and recognizing behavior changes. I also have experience administering medication and always take a calm, careful approach to keep cats as stress-free as possible. Cats can be very particular, and I pride myself on being attentive, patient, and respectful of their space while still giving them the love and care they need. My goal is always to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own home.
“Dyanne stayed an extra night when we had an emergency. She was very understanding, and so kind-hearted. She is the most amazing and dependable Rover pet sitter we ever had!!”
About: I had two cats growing up that have since passed. But we’re very kind indoor outdoor cats. Due to adoption of dogs I haven’t had any since but haven’t lost my love for them! I find cats aggressive or not super manageable and fun to be around even if they are just sleeping. I am able to manage both dogs and cats even when they don’t get along. And have been around cats who are aggressive, shy and even ones that require lots of attention. I love them and would love to meet your cat!
About: Lots of love patience and honesty. I am a retired nurse who needs to continue to give care and attention to those in need!😊 I get your hectic schedule and worries. I’ve been there.

I keep your pet on the routine they are use to. I am also willing to give meds/injections if necessary as well as any other care needed. Just ask!
“Chelsea was amazing! She stayed in our home for 11 days and cared for our two kittens, and checked to ensure our snake had water. She went above and beyond taking care of our home and our fur babies. I received texts with pics and videos nearly everyday. She was very responsive to messages. I will definitely use her again and highly recommend her!”
“Lindsey was great about communicating, agreed to set up a meet and greet and had good availability for that, and took good care of our kitty while we were gone. She was able to handle giving a pill. Thanks, Lindsey!”
About: I've had at least four dogs as long as I can remember. As a child, they were my first companions and my second caretakers. Even as I grew into an adult, they were always there to comfort me and to brighten the darkest of days. Dogs hold a very special place in my heart and I am eager to give back what they so willingly give; love, acceptance, understanding, comfort, and joy. In the last two years, I have gone from four dogs to one, due to Cancer and Congestive Heart Failure, and I must admit that their absence has affected me deeply. I miss them so so so much!! I'm one of those people that celebrated their dog's birthdays and bought them copious presents for Christmas. While my friends were pulling out their family pics, I was always pulling out my dog pics. I share this same sentiment towards birds, rabbits, and cats; all of which I had growing up. Being surrounded by animals as a child was a great experience. It even prompted me to volunteer at the ASPCA for almost a year. As I hope you can tell, I will not only provide what your pet needs to survive, but I will also provide him/her with special attention and love. I look forward to meeting with both you and your pet! Until then, take care! I will be able to fulfill any house/pet sitting duties without any issues, as I am able to balance my obligations responsibly and with respect to myself and those that hire me. While pet/house sitting, I will abide the rules given to me. This could include when they play, where they sleep, any medications needed, when to eat, etc.
“Amazing! My cat gets extremely stressed when I’m gone. I’ve never seen him so relaxed as to when I got back from this trip. It was clear Glenn took incredible care of him. I also really appreciate the pictures and videos to keep my mind at ease. Will certainly book again!”
“I cannot say enough positive things about Mary Grace! She house sat/pet sat our cat Luna and was fantastic. She provided great updates and photos and was attentive to all details house/pet related. She left our place cleaner than when she came and was very flexible when we had a slight schedule change. We’ll definitely be using her again!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! I was away for two weeks, and Allison was absolutely amazing with my cat. She sent daily updates and photos, kept me informed about how things were going, and clearly cared deeply for my fur baby. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my cat was in such loving and capable hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and attentive pet sitter! She is awesome!”

About: I was born into an animal-loving family and I have continued to instill this love for animals in my own children. I have had a menagerie of animals all of my life. At the young age of 12, I started walking the neighbors' dogs and going to their houses when they were out of town to feed, water, and walk their pets. In college, I worked part-time in several different veterinary clinics. I am still very well connected to the veterinary world so if I am unsure of something involving my pets, I am able to reach out to get an answer pretty quickly. Over my lifetime of 40 yrs. I have had at least 20 dogs, 10 cats, several rabbits, horses, chinchillas, guinea pigs, hamsters, and a few reptiles (but no snakes). In my full-time job, I have a hybrid work schedule. Some days I am in the office and some days I work from home. This allows some flexibility when caring for fur babies. My family also helps care for our "animal guests". It is a group effort! I have a 1/2 acre that is fenced. I have 3 dogs- a Newfoundland, Black Lab, and a Beagle. All of my dogs are rescues. I know that I rescued them but as cheesy as it sounds, most days I feel like they rescued me. Each of them has their own personality, which I love. My dogs are usually always by my side when I am home. My dogs love to jump on the bed or couch and get snuggles. I also have 3 cats. All of them found us. They were all dumped on us and of course, I couldn't turn them away. :) I would treat your animals the same way I treat mine- with love and snuggles.
“Debra was wonderful! I have one dog who is very anxious and she was so patient with him to make sure he was going to be comfortable in a new environment. She has a wonderful fenced backyard which was important to me as my anxious dog doesn’t do well on walks. I will definitely be using her again.”
“Sable had another wonderful, exciting, yet relaxing time with Jason, Brooke, their entire family, and their dog Toby. Thank you, Rover.com, and a special thanks to Jason and Brooke for your loving care of Sable. God bless you all!”
“Natasha was great! She was quick to communicate, open and easy to work with. She was very responsible and help put an anxious pet parent at ease!! We received updates throughout the day. Highly recommend!”
“Clarissa, we had a wonderful experience and couldn't be happier with the care provided. From the beginning, you were communicative, reliable, and genuinely caring. What stood out most was her willingness to make accommodations and work with our schedule and specific needs, which made the entire process stress-free. It was clear that Lena was treated with patience, and attention, and we received updates that gave us peace of mind while we were in our event. Knowing our pup was in such good hands allowed us to fully enjoy our time. If you are in the Lexington area this is your gal, highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate Rover sitter!”

About: We would love to take care of your furry family member while you're away! We will make sure he has a marvelous time with all of us. My husband and I grew up on farms in Kentucky and have loved dogs all our lives. Reagan is sweet and smart, but mostly keeps to herself unless your dog wants to engage with her. We have a small fenced yard, and there are lots of walking areas nearby. We would take your dog to the dog park with us around the corner if you like, or we can head over to the nearby park! We do have a cat named George and a young daughter, so it is important that your furry friend be comfortable around both. George mostly keeps to himself, so as long as your dog doesn't chase or bark at him, things should go fine! Why I love dog sitting We've loved dogs our entire lives. We both grew up with dogs and firmly believe that they are a blessing to us! About my yard We do have a small yard! My experience administering medication Yes, we are comfortable administering medication. I work from home so am happy to have a furry friend keep me company and get some exercise together. Your pet won’t be lonely! I have a fully fenced yard with lots of space to play and explore. The fenced area is almost 1/2 an acre so plenty of room.
“Communication with Nancy was excellent. She was quick to respond. Both our dogs spent the day with her while we were in the area. They played hard because they were worn out when we picked them up. We would book with her again.”
“Delaney was amazing again! With a last minute request, Rupp had the best time and her pictures were amazing. I love the doggy daycare report card at the end of the day! So fun. She spoils our baby boy!”
“Sydney is a great Rover. Quick to respond. Flexible. Good location - near UK campus. Eg. She looked after my dog when we discovered at short notice that we could not take her to an event on campus. Clearly a dog lover - and my dog was comfortable with her.”

“Sloane is an absolute gem. She is conscientious, dedicated, and thorough. She takes care of our basket-case of a rescue dog several times per week and has been our savior from the ridiculousness of his unending energy and anxiety while we’re away. Her report cards are filled with humor and have us laughing out loud every time. Cannot recommend her enough!”
About: I’ve worked at a doggy daycare for about 2 years now. So I have experience with all breeds and I know how to handle them.

“Allie was amazing to have with our animals while we were away! She came to meet them beforehand and was extremely organized and flexible. Allie provided updates throughout and was extremely helpful! Hoping we can book her again!!!”
About: A college student who loves animals looking for extra money over the summer! Hello! My name is Allie! I have grown up with both dogs and cats and don’t know any other way than how to take care of them! I have two dogs and have been left alone with them in the house since I was about 14 (currently 18). So I have come to understand how to take care of them overnight. My dogs can be aggressive and bark loudly which I have come to learn how to deal with and am not scared of. I have also seen the crossover between cats and dogs and am able to manage that as well. Last summer I dog sat for a family for about a period of 10 days. And have been on and off overnight watching and walking him for about a month now! I am currently a freshman in college looking for a way to make some summer money and currently have a completely free schedule other than some babysitting jobs! I have a fenced in yard with an electric fence. I walk my dogs at least once every day which I love to do. They eat and drink when they want to as they are trained to do so but also understand if your dog runs on a schedule. We use a dog door but also am able to tell when dog needs to go in/out and keep them on that schedule as well!
About: I have experience in training animals especially puppies. I also work at a vet clinic. The health and well being of all animals is my main priority. I am constantly around animals from working in a Veterinary clinic to learning about them. When I am not working I am hanging out with my own animals. Happiness and safety of animals has always come before everything. Making sure your pets get the proper care they need while you're away is important to me. I strictly follow the instructions I have been given as consistency is key in an animals life.
About: I have had many dogs in my lifetime from childhood and as an adult and love to give dogs the love and compassion they deserve I am a new physician assistant graduate and do not start my new job for quite a few months so I have quite the down time to take care of pets! I have a dog myself and ensure I will care for your dogs with the same amount of love, compassion and care! I also have a background in healthcare
“Rachel has walked my dog, Roxy, maybe a dozen or so times now, and I could not be more thankful for her. She is kind, and gives my dog great experiences. I am so thankful to know someone that I trust completely with my pup, who has her best interest at heart. Thank you Miss Rachel!! Roxy loves you!!”
“Very thorough and on top of things, even with how scatterbrained I am. Tater was a big fan of her immediately! My pup is reactive, an amputee and is very strong headed and I’m kind of a “helicopter mom” so I’m glad to have found someone that makes me feel at ease when I can’t make it home to walk her.”
“We love Allison! Echo and Ollie get SO excited to go on their walks! I can’t recommend her enough! Allison loves and cares for the pups and does a fantastic job! We are very happy!”
About: I have cared for animals of all kinds ranging from ferrets and bunnies to horses and large dogs, several of which had various medical needs and requirements. I also have experience in basic training for dogs if a training regimen is required. I am currently waiting for the fall semester for college to start so I have lots of free time to devote to the care and safety of your animals. While I cannot care for other dogs or cats in my home, small pets like ferrets and chinchillas are welcome if they travel with an enclosure.
About: As an experienced pet and house sitter, I strive to take the best care of all your animals. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, and small animals throughout their whole lifespan. I promise to care for your animals like I would care for my own, pampering them and giving them the best care whether it be during a walk or a drop-in visit. While in high school, I worked as a vet tech at a local clinic and was trained to give medication, clip nails, & give baths. Personally, I have cared for animals with complex medical needs and am a nurse, which allows me to recognize acute changes in your babies.My goal is always to make sure your pets are cared for the way you would care for them, so that you don’t have to worry while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your pets & I cannot wait to love on them like you would. I have taken some time off for my full-time job, allowing me to care for your pets all hours of the day through July 14. After July 14, I will be available to love on your babies in the evenings and the weekends. When I am in your home, you can expect me to be respectful of your space and your animals. I always ensure that I leave a space better than I found it, accounting for safety of your pets and your home.
About: I have always had dogs and cats in my life. I have cared for senior animals when it got more difficult and puppies that needed round-the-clock care. I’ve also been trusted by family, neighbors, and friends to care for their homes and pets while they were away. I’m a recent college grad and have not yet found employment, so my schedule is wide open! I will be available Monday through Sunday at all hours. I do not offer boarding in my home, however I can supervise multiple dogs at once, walk dogs, follow specific feeding instructions, and respect the boundaries of your cat. I can also work with security systems and keep your home safe and neat.

“Sandra is the best! She takes excellent care of Barnaby, and always sends pictures and updates. We had some issues trying to get back to him and ended up not getting back until way after we planned on, but she was very understanding and happy to care for him longer.”
“The pups seem to have had a great time getting spoiled! We got plenty of updates on how they were doing during the stay, which helped immensely! They commonly get upset/stressed with traditional boarding, so this was a great alternative. Would recommend!”
“I am so thankful to have found Melody. My dog, Opal, took to her right away, and she LOVES being over there for daycare and overnight stays. The times are super flexible, and I’m thankful to have someone that loves my dog as much as I do! I get pictures and videos on how Opal is doing throughout the day. Definitely the best dog sitter in Lex!”
“She took amazing care of my dog while I was away. She kept me updated with photos. My dog was happy and well cared , he looks so healthy . Highly recommend. --- You can adjust it as needed!”
“Jason and Brooke were great! They kept me up to date with Rupp and sent pictures. Rupp loved hanging out with their daughter and sleeping with her at night. We will definitely use their services again!”
“Ann, was awesome. She was able to accommodate my last minute request. She also met me and picked up Charly. She sent some regular updates and even took some great pictures of Charly.”
“Ashley is great!! Storm came back worn out but in the best way! I don’t have a fenced In yard, so makes my heart happy for her to have friends to play with and be able to run freely! She was able to get my last minute, and worked with me on times! Highly recommend, absolutely my go to now!”
“I can only really know how things went for my cat Teacup when she is boarded by how she behaves once she’s back home. After her 2 night stay with Natasha she seemed happy to be home, but otherwise very calm. Unlike other times when she meowed non-stop for 2 days as if she were trying to tell me all was not as it should have been. This time she hardly meowed at all. Natasha and her 2 daughters seem comfortable with both cats and dogs which of course reassures their guests that they are safe and loved. For Teacup that is everything. I think Teacup wouldn’t mind a return visit in the future. I can recommend Natasha for cat boarding.”
“Audrey and Samuel did a great job caring for my puppy! She was exhausted when we picked her up so I think she had a lot of fun! They also offered to do a meet-and-great which is great.”
“Erin as very accommodating. Responded promptly to all messages. Sent pictures and took very good care of our little puppy. I was very thankful to have her watch our fur baby and when we go out of town again she will be our first choice!!”
“Fantastic as always. Hardy comes home worn out every time lol and when I drop him off he doesn’t even tell me bye, just runs straight in to start playing. This is how I know he loves coming over :) Thanks for always taking such good care of my baby!”
“Amber and her family were great with my Mika. She sent me updates on how Mika was doing and was flexible as my schedule is a bit all over the place right now. I will book with her again as this was a fantastic experience!”
“Kelsey did an amazing job taking care of our 4 month old kitten, and addressing her needs. Our kitten was able to socialize with other cats and even a dog! Kelsey updated us with photos and messages very frequently, which was very much appreciated! Kelsey has a significant amount of knowledge on cats, and gives them many opportunities to play and enrich their minds, socially and mentally. Thank you so much for looking after our little baby! I can not wait for the next time that she can come over to visit!”
“Great experience! They took wonderful care of Thor and sent updates, which I really appreciated. He’s an easy cat, but they still kept him in his own room so he felt safe and comfortable. Would definitely book again!”
“Addie is fantastic!! We met her twice before we left town just to be sure things were all set— and our dog loves her. We were flexible about where she stayed with our dog- her house or ours- because we were gone for 16 days. She did everything she could to make sure we were comfortable with her. She sent pictures, responded quickly to texts, and Levi’s know how everything was going. Additionally, Addie is a genuinely nice person who is driven in her work as a dancer. We were very impressed with her. We are looking forward to many more trips, knowing our dog is safe and well loved in our absence.”
“We went out of town for a week leaving our one year old Bulldog with Nef. He came to meet our dog and even accommodated transportation. My dog is very picky on who she likes however it was love from first sight. This was the first time we had to board our dog and now we have our go to person for life. Thanks Nef for the outstanding service!”
