“Carla took great care of our puppy. She provided ample play time and kept us updated with messages and pictures. We were very comfortable knowing Manchego was being well taken care of! Thanks Carla!”
“We are so thankful we found Deborah. Our pup had the best time and came home so happy. Deborah sent regular pictures and updates and made us feel at ease that our girl was being taken care of :)”
“Victoria and Michael were great! Left both of our pups there for two nights and were updated with pictures and details! Great family for any kind of dog wether it be younger or older. Can’t say enough great things about them. Will definitely use again!”
“Alexander was amazing! He gave frequent updates, lots of pictures and my golden, Scout had a blast with his golden, Archie! Will definitely use him again in the future!”
“Melissa was an excellent sitter for our teacup chihuahua. He is 16, blind and hard of hearing which required a little extra precaution. Her nursing background definitely put us at ease. She sent pictures to us while we were out of the country and let ys know how he was doing. She took him for walks in a doggy stroller and gave him lots of love. She also administered his meds. I would highly recommend Melissa to care for your fur baby! We will absolutely use her services again. Thank you Melissa!”
“Best experience we could have had! He had so much fun and was loved on and walked plenty. He was so happy when I got there. Tori was so friendly. She sent me pics every day with an update and we will definitely be sending Oreo there again anytime we go anywhere!!”
About: I am a passionate animals lover with 10+ years of hands-on experience working in veterinary hospitals, boarding facilities and animald ERs. I have cared for dogs of all breeds and temperaments and am comfortable administering medications to both dogs and cats when needed. I currently work from home with the flexibility to do other things through out my day. I choose to fill that or my free time taking care of animals! I have a fenced yard and a clean safe home for your pets to play, roam, feel safe and comfortable. I no longer have pets of my own.
“Serenity was wonderful! Our sweet Molly girl seemed very well cared for during her stay and came home a happy dog. We will absolutely be booking with Serenity again.”
“Austie gives a high level of care, communication and our dog came home calm and happy. Very clean and nice home and I received daily updates which was so re assuring. Highly recommend Austie.”
“LEXI WAS GREAT! Moose loved his time with her and the other pups staying over. Her home is beautiful. Large fenced in yard for my dog to enjoy, and I was spoiled with constant photos. She's clearly an animal person! Will use again!”
“Erika and Erik took care of our dog like he was their own! We got daily updates and pictures of our dog on walks, lounging in their yard with his own fan, and enjoying their company inside. It was incredibly comforting knowing our dog was well taken care of and having a great time while we were away!”
“Our Dogs were taken care of extremely well. They were spoiled by Krista. We got daily pictures and update. We will only be having her watch them in the future. She is our permanent doggie Babysitter”
“Max stayed for over 2wks with Jennifer and Michael. They sent me pictures regularly and Max came back with as much energy as he was dropped off with…so I know he was played with plenty. It was great getting pictures of him with all the other dogs. He’s normally the only dog at home, so I know he loved playing with the other dogs while he was there. It was great to see him pulled in as part of their family while we were gone.”
“We feel so blessed that we found someone that loves on our doggies when we are away. Amanda and her family take the best care of them and the dogs love their vaca with them. 10/10 recommend.”
“Jennifer (and her husband) were very welcoming, accommodating and accepting when we first met in their home. My daughter, who just turned fourteen and is usually shy with strangers, felt very comfortable meeting them. As for our Yuki, he felt right at home and began exploring and making friends with their pup as well. I received photos that showed our puppy happy and playful. He was well taken care of and I would gladly use Jennifer’s services again! I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a home where your pet will be loved and well taken care of!”

“Bella was super communicative and helpful and made me feel super comfortable with leaving my dogs with her. She treated all 4 of my dogs like her own and spoke so sweetly to them, cleaned up after them, and asked questions and updated me when necessary. I will definitely be reaching out to her again if I need my puppies watched again, love her :)”
About: I have had pets( Cats and Dogs) since I was about 10 years old so I have basically always been learning to take care of animals. I have also been responsible for caring for my neighbors cats while they were on vacation. That job consisted of visiting their house daily to feed them and water them and also playing. I’m part-time and saving money up for college so I’m available a lot throughout the week to care for pet! I’m excited to meet all the pets! I take my own dog on walks multiple times a day to use the bathroom and to exercise, she is full of energy. My cats like to sleep a lot but when they’re not sleeping they’re chasing around a toy.
About: I have been practicing the fine art of cat whispering since 2018. Currently, I live with two adorable kitties. My love for felines borders on magical—I speak fluent "meow," chat with every single neighborhood cat I meet on the street, and keep a secret emergency stash of dream-treats in my car just in case a furry friend appears! ** Cats are creatures of habit and magic. I match your exact daily routine down to the minute so your cat feels like nothing changed. ** I specialize in extended stays! I provide consistent, loving companionship so your kitty never feels lonely while you explore the world. ** If your cat needs daily medications or supplements, I administer them with zero stress and maximum patience. From energetic kitten zoomies to senior cats who just want to nap in a sunbeam, I read feline body language instantly and always respect their boundaries.Every visit includes meticulously scooped litter boxes, fresh food/water potions, and a magical photoshoot of your kitty sent directly to your phone. 🔮 Whether you need me for a quick daily drop in, a weekend or a month, your familiar is safe in my hands!
“She did awesome! She kept the place clean, and all my kitty babies were happy! She even took care of my axolotl for me. I would definitely recommend her, she is great, and really loves your pets.”
About: I have hands-on experience with a wide variety of animals at every life stage—from newborns to seniors. This allows me to confidently handle everything from playful, high-energy pets to those needing slower, more attentive care. I tailor my approach to each animal’s age, personality, and needs to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and truly cared for. My availability is flexible, and when I accept a booking, I am fully committed to being there exactly when your pet needs me. I’m very mindful of my schedule and only accept jobs I can reliably follow through on, so you can count on consistency, punctuality, and dependable care every time. I provide care exclusively in your pet’s home or through outings, so they can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. This helps reduce stress and keeps them feeling secure while you’re away. In your home, I follow your pet’s normal schedule as closely as possible—feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any medications or special instructions. I spend quality time with them so they feel cared for, not just “checked on.” For outings, I make sure they get safe, structured exercise and enrichment tailored to their energy level and personality. I’m very attentive to behavior, surroundings, and safety at all times. My goal is to provide consistent, loving care while keeping your pet happy, relaxed, and in their normal routine.

About: I have taken care of several cats during my life, starting from my mother's womb. Currently, I have two cats of my own, a Devon Rex and an American Shorthair, who have very different grooming and care needs. I understand that cats require consent and patience when interacting with them, and I am more than willing to ensure both are present. I have a good amount of experience in the administration of medication (including oral and ophthalmic solutions). I also understand the importance of a clean litter box and playing with the cat on their level and in a way that makes them happy.
About: As a cat parent, I know how important your babies are. My cats are eight (and still babies, of course!). I've sat for cats of all ages, sizes, and breeds. It can be scary when their usual beloved human servant isn't around, and I know how to connect with them in ways they can understand and appreciate to make those times feel more like home.
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, and small animals since I was 6 years old. Friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, water, and take care of their pets on many occasions! I have a very flexible schedule rand can work with any pets. I do have 5 dogs me and my boyfriend own. They have a schedule of feedings and potty breaks but basically they just play all the time. They are all VERY playful and super friendly. I mostly would prefer to care for animals in my own home as I can do my daily tasks as well as keep your companions happy. I am more than happy to care for them in yours I just cannot stay nights. I have a big back yard so they can get lots of exercise and play time! If needed I can also separate my own animals from yours with no problem at all.

“Erika Leigh and Erik are simply the best! As first-time dog owners, leaving our very loved 2-year-old Lab, Ruger, was a huge step for us. He has never been left with a sitter or alone for more than a few hours. He’s truly our family sidekick and goes almost everywhere with us. We had an all-day family event to attend and decided it would be best to leave him with a sitter for the day. Since it was a last-minute need, we were so grateful to find Erika Leigh and Erik on Rover. They were incredibly accommodating and graciously welcomed us to bring Ruger over beforehand so he could meet them, explore their home, and so they could answer all of our questions. From the beginning, their communication was outstanding. They responded quickly before our booking and kept us updated throughout the day with messages and photos of Ruger having a great time. Those updates gave us complete peace of mind and allowed us to fully enjoy our family event without worrying about him. It was clear that Ruger was well cared for and treated like one of their own. We couldn’t have asked for a better first sitter experience and would not hesitate to book with Erika Leigh and Erik again. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, caring, and dependable pet sitters!”
About: I have always had pets growing up, and my love for them has grown even more in my adulthood. I have bred dogs, so I am well rehearsed with all ages of dogs, from pups to elder. I have two dogs of my own, a dachshund and a golden retriever. As a nurse, I am driven to care for others, and that includes our furry friends ! I work as a nurse on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday. I dog sit/dog walk on my off days and weekends. I enjoy morning walks the best, but I am free throughout Wednesday and Fridays I will respect your space as if it were my own. I have been dog sitting for many years and have never had a trust or safety issue. I’m very dependable and trustworthy.
About: Hi, I’m Carrie! 🐾 Animals have always been at the heart of my life. For over 2 years I’ve volunteered at my local animal shelter, caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. That hands-on experience taught me patience, compassion, and the importance of treating every pet like family. Currently, I’m home full-time caring for my sweet senior dog, Sophia (15 years old, living with Cushing’s Disease). Making sure she is comfortable and loved has given me an even deeper appreciation for the trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else’s care. Because I’m at home, I can dedicate all the time and attention your dog deserves. Here’s what you can expect when your pet stays with me: Lots of love & attention – every pet is treated like my own family. No crating (unless required by you or for very brief times when I must step out). Safe, comfortable environment tailored to your pet’s needs. Experience with senior and special-needs dogs who may require extra patience and care. Regular updates & photos so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away. Whether your dog loves long walks, snuggles on the couch, or simply a calm and caring presence, I’m here to provide the same quality of care I give my own beloved Sophia. Your pup’s happiness, safety, and comfort will always be my top priority. ❤️ I'm currently out of work to care for my senior girl, Sophia, that has had some complications with Cushing's Disease. Your pet will be under my full-time loving care at my home, or in your home. I offer both services. Your pet will only be crated when I need to step out momentarily. In my home, pets are part of the family! 🐾 I have a fully fenced one-acre yard where they can safely run and play, and when the weather’s nice, we’ll spend lots of time outside together. Indoors, your pup will be right by my side, whether that’s hanging out in the kitchen watching me cook or relaxing nearby. I don’t crate unless you request it or for brief times when needed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick to their routine and give them plenty of attention, exercise, and love so they feel safe and comfortable until you’re back.
About: I have 5 dogs that are my kids. I am a stay at home dog mom. Your dog will be my dog while in my care. 4 are small and 1 medium sized. They are all fixed, UTD on shots and heart worm. All adopted from different states and shelters. They are between the ages of 10 and 12, and 1 senior who we believe is about 16. They are only crated at night if I go out for an extended period of time, except Charlie, the old man, he is out 24/7. We live on a half acre, fully fenced back yard (5 ft aluminum with puppy pickets). They can get on the furniture if they want and I have dog beds throughout the house. My dogs typically get on very well with other dogs. I dog sit 2 dogs in my home a few times a year for a few days to a week at a time. 1 medium and 1 large. I have fostered various dogs for Big Fluffy Dog Rescue in the past and I have helped and run adoption events at Petco for about a year for Simpson County Animal Shelter/Friends of the Shelter in Franklin KY. I am a stay at home dog mom. I can pet sit any time of the day or week, for just a few hours, a day or overnights. I only leave the house to go to the store or run a few errands. Typically not out for extended periods. If I am dog sitting, I prefer to be at home as often as possible. I am always around my dogs. I have dog beds in all areas of the house. I keep an eye on them when they go outside. I play with them regularly. When I get a new foster dog, I usually will keep them leashed for a little while until they get acclimated and used to the other dogs. You, my customer are more than welcome to come into my house and yard and meet myself, and my dogs.
About: Every dog is different, and I believe their care should be too. I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, and preferences so they feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. Whether your dog is playful, laid back, anxious, a puppy, or a senior, I’m happy to adjust my care to fit their individual needs. I understand that leaving your dog with someone new can be stressful, and I do everything I can to make the experience comfortable for both you and your dog. Whether you have a calm companion or a high-energy working breed that thrives on activity and engagement, I’m happy to tailor my care to fit their individual needs. Your dog’s safety and comfort will always come first. I never assume unfamiliar dogs will get along simply because they’re friendly. Introductions are done slowly, interactions are always supervised, and I’m happy to separate dogs whenever needed. Every dog deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and respected during their stay.
About: Dogs have been part of our lives since childhood, and now we're lucky enough to share our home with three well-trained pups who absolutely love having furry friends visit. We've been through it all—raising energetic puppies, caring for senior dogs with special needs, and everything in between. As a stay-at-home mom and work-from-home dad, we're here all day, every day. Your dog will never be left alone and will get the same love and attention our own dogs receive. Our daily routine includes hour-long walks and plenty of playtime in our fenced backyard, where dogs can run, explore, and socialize safely. We only accept one additional dog at a time to ensure every guest gets personalized attention and fits well with our pack. Our three dogs are friendly, well-socialized, and love making new friends, so your pup will have built-in playmates if they're interested—or plenty of quiet companionship if they prefer a calmer pace. We know how hard it is to leave your dog with someone else. We'll treat your pet like family, keep you updated with photos and messages, and follow their routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and loved while you're away. As dog lovers, our pets aren't just part of our schedule—they are our schedule! Since we're both home full-time, your dog will be integrated into our everyday life just like our own. Our dogs get a solid hour-long walk every day around lunchtime, and your pup will join right in. When the weather's nice, we're constantly heading out to the backyard for play sessions, potty breaks, and supervised exploration throughout the day. Because we work from home, there's always someone available for attention, belly rubs, or just hanging out on the couch. Dogs have free access to our main living areas and are never isolated or crated unless that's your specific request. Meal times, medication schedules, and any special routines you have at home—we'll stick to them. Your dog will simply become the fourth member of our pack while they're here, getting the same care, exercise, and love our three receive every single day. Your dog's safety is our top priority. Our home features a securely fenced backyard that's regularly inspected, and we never leave dogs unsupervised outdoors. Inside, our space is dog-proofed and comfortable, with plenty of room for everyone to have their own space when needed. We're experienced in reading dog body language and managing group dynamics. Before any visit, we do a meet-and-greet to ensure compatibility with our pack. We only take one guest at a time so we can carefully monitor interactions and make sure every dog feels safe and happy. We know trust is everything when it comes to your pet. We'll keep you updated throughout your dog's stay with photos and messages, and we're always available if you need to reach us. All dogs in our care are treated with the same watchful eye and gentle care we give our own—because we understand they're not just pets, they're family. Our calm, loving home environment means less stress for your dog and peace of mind for you.

About: Hi! My name is Gabby and pets have been a huge part of my life since I was little. I started dog and cat sitting in high school. From overnight visits, to quick potty breaks, or little drop in’s. I always tried to help wherever I could. Now I am trying to expand by helping all the pups and cats I can! I’m currently between jobs, so my availability is super open at the moment. Any changes in my availability will be communicated promptly to maintain full transparency and set up a change of plans. We have four pups of our own, all social and sweet. We have a big open yard for our pups to run around and explore.

About: I have had pets( Cats and Dogs) since I was about 10 years old so I have basically always been learning to take care of animals. I have also been responsible for caring for my neighbors cats while they were on vacation. That job consisted of visiting their house daily to feed them and water them and also playing. I’m part-time and saving money up for college so I’m available a lot throughout the week to care for pet! I’m excited to meet all the pets! I take my own dog on walks multiple times a day to use the bathroom and to exercise, she is full of energy. My cats like to sleep a lot but when they’re not sleeping they’re chasing around a toy.
“Haley came to my home for a meet and greet before her walk with Spirit. She was very sweet and answered all of my questions and made me feel at ease that my pup was in good hands. And he was. She communicated very well if anything occurred. I would definitely let her walk Spirit again.”

About: Hi! I’m Bri and I’ve been caring for dogs for years. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, large breeds, medication administration, and energetic dogs who need plenty of exercise and engagement. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I provide regular photo updates and clear communication throughout every visit. Whether your dog wants a long walk, a game of fetch, or just some companionship while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved. I work from home and have a really flexible work schedule so I’m able to take on several drop-ins and walks during weekdays and my weekends are open as well. Each animal is different and requires a different care approach. I always read the initial behavior markers and go from there! But for first time visits, I’ll always let the animal approach me until they’re comfortable. A good treat always helps, too!

A little about me — I’m a former nurse and currently have a very flexible schedule, so I’m available full-time and able to give pets lots of attention and care.

I send updates with photos around 11–1 and again in the evening (6–9) so you’re always in the loop. Since it’s a longer stay, I’d be happy to provide attentive care, regular updates, and the added reassurance of my nursing background. I would treat yours like my own! 🤍 We have a big fenced backyard which allows the pups to come in and out as much as they want! We are okay with pets being on furniture and sleeping with us 💗

“Erika and Erik took care of our dog like he was their own! We got daily updates and pictures of our dog on walks, lounging in their yard with his own fan, and enjoying their company inside.

“Max stayed for over 2wks with Jennifer and Michael. They sent me pictures regularly and Max came back with as much energy as he was dropped off with…so I know he was played with plenty. It was great getting pictures of him with all the other dogs. He’s normally the only dog at home, so I know he loved playing with the other dogs while he was there. It was great to see him pulled in as part of their family while we were gone.”
“We feel so blessed that we found someone that loves on our doggies when we are away. Amanda and her family take the best care of them and the dogs love their vaca with them. 10/10 recommend.”
About: Hello! My name is Karen and I've been an avid and passionate animal lover my entire life. I have over 20 years of dog fostering experience with Big Fluffy Fog Rescue, and currently have two of my own dogs and three horses at home. I would love to let your pup join our little pack! I offer a private climate controlled area for your dog(s) to feel safe and relaxed. Crating is available, but some of my more mature canine friends prefer a nice dog bed and cot if they so choose. The space includes direct access to a fenced in yard with plenty of opportunity for outside! I am a full time remote employee, so I am here all the time. We have potty breaks as needed, with tons of supervised outside time! I offer a private inclusive area for friends, as well as lots of outside time with or without canine friends! There are cats and horses so if your friend has a high prey drive this wouldn't be the best place.
“Daniel and his family are absolutely AWESOME pet sitters! From our meet & greet to pick up after Bailee’s first stay…. they made us feel so comfortable. Receiving daily photos was a bonus! We feel like she was well taken care of, like she was one of their own…. A wonderful feeling to have while you’re away. She’s looking forward to her next visit already🤗 Thank you Daniel!”
“Gracie, was amazing. She took care of baby like one of her own. She was punctual, loving, caring and all around a great pup nanny. We will recommend her to anyone on here looking for a sitter”
