“Tara always gives the best updates, lots of pictures, and takes such good care of my dog while I’m away. I never have to worry about him when she takes care of him.”


“Rebecca is always incredible. My dogs love when she comes to visit knowing they are going to have so much fun on their walk and playtime. This week we were having some issues with our front entrance and Rebecca was extremely flexible helping navigate getting the dogs for their walk. 🐕”


“Sam is just an amazing person and she takes great care of my dog Bucky, when she walks him...he can be a challenge but she is so sweet and patient with him, and he loves her to bits. He gets so excited when she comes, and not only does she do a great job on the walks with him, but she goes the extra mile in other ways and is a kind and caring lady that just brings a bit of sunshine in when she comes. I do recommend her, she is wonderful.”


About: Hi! I’m deaf, I have a new cochlear implant. I can read lips and signs/speak. I’ve been taking care of my neighbor’s cats while they were on their trip! I’ve feed them, played with them. I’ve cleaned the litter box for a year or so. In the past summer, I’ve stayed the nights and feed the dogs and took them for walks, played with them. I’ve experienced with adult cats and adults/senior dogs. I’m a college student and I’m available for weekdays, weekends, I can stayed the nights one of those days if you planned on going a trip for weeks! I’ll be happily to take care of your pets while you're gone! I have a fenced yard and have two dogs to keep your pet company. I can crate your pet if needed. If something happens, I will let you know and asked what I can do for pets safety. I can take them out for walk or backyard to cool off then give them a treats if they are doing well.

About: I know what it is like to worry about your pet while you are away so I treat every pet like my own and will update you with plenty of photos! I love dogs/cats and am very patient with them when they need it. I have had a dog for 9 years now and I occasionally pet sit for family/friends! I currently volunteer for Adopt Me Bluegrass and I participated in the “Check Me Out” Program several times at the Humane Society in Lexington (taking dogs out for the day to the park). I do work full time during the week but am available before work, for a mid-day check in, and after work as well! I also can take your dog for a walk at the park during the week after work or any time on the weekends! In your home, I will make sure to follow your pet’s routine with meals, walks, playtime, and anything else necessary. I will also keep your home clean!

About: I have experience fostering for the humane society. I have a German shepherd at home and used to own a Siberian husky. I have fostered both puppies and kittens I work from home full-time so I can give your pet plenty of potty breaks and give them a walk on my lunch if needed I have a fenced in yard that your dog can play in. I also live close to a park that we can go to. I have a friendly German shepherd who likes to play with other dogs. I will treat your pet like they are my own and let them make themselves at home.

“Amanda was a God send! Even when my wrong address was in the system and she went to that house first, she went back to our ACTUAL house to take care of our girls. We were so thankful!”



“Annie is the best! She jumped in last minute to give our pup a much needed walk and potty break while we were out of town and updated us on all the things. 10/10 recommend!”



“Words can’t describe how wonderful Alice is! She was so helpful (on a last minute occasion) and after meeting her I knew she’d be a perfect fit for my dog Tucker and I! I felt so at ease knowing he was in such great hands and we can’t wait to see Alice again soon. I came home to a very happy dog! Thank you so much Alice!”

About: I was born and raised with Dogs and have always had a deep love for them. I’ve taken care of dogs big and small, and would just love the opportunity to meet yours! I have two dogs at home, They eat twice a day(not including snacks and treats haha) and typically I’ll walk them three times a day I have always had bigger dogs growing up and I love to play with them, whether it be with a ball or stick or even wrestling them. I’ve always loved to play with animals.

“Casey did a great job watching my boy while I was out of town. She was punctual, easily reachable/quick to respond, and went above and beyond to make sure he was well taken care of. Great communication with plenty of pictures/updates. I will definitely be using her again for any future trips.”


About: I have never not had a dog my entire life! Dogs have always had a special place in my heart. I have always loved dog sitting because I just love meeting new fur babies. I have 3 dogs of my own with my parents. Most recently our 4th and most special fur baby (he’s been with me since i was 5) Crackers crossed the rainbow bridge. He was in diapers and needed no slip socks and other sorts so I am experienced in that department if needed. I am experienced with all dog sizes, I have one massive boy austrialian shepard (Graham) , a girl mini austrialian shepard (Dolly) and a girl chihuahua mix (Ritz). People have always said I am the dog whisper because I have never met a dog that does not like me. I love to throw frisbee and ball with my aussie the 2 girls though would rather just sun bathe then run around. I have had to deal with very crazy dogs like my sisters who need a trazadone once a day and can jump over fences and have had to chase after a few times so I am very patient and well adversed. I currently work full time for my disabled uncle. He goes to a day program Tuesday and Wednesday so that would be the best time for long or short dog walks! I still have availability Monday Thursday Friday and then some weekends for doggy day care or just visits to let your fur babies out or anything else! So my schedule can be pretty flexible. I have 3 friendly dogs and fenced in back yard at my parents house as well as another fenced in back yard right across the street from my parents that doesn’t have dogs. It’s my handicapped uncles house where I live with him, he doesn’t have any dogs but loves to meet new fur babies and would love one of his own but has lots of niece and nephew pups that come to visit. He has 1 medium and 1 large dog crate if needed! So if you would like for your dog to mingle with mine I can take them to my parents house with fence or if you don’t want them with any other dogs I will take them to my uncles house with fence where he would love to meet them!

About: I’ve owned a dog all of my adult life. I can’t imagine life without having to pick up dog poop daily. :) I was able to crate/potty train our puppy in less than a week! I’m also able to help train with basic commands. Your furry, cuddly love bug will be in good hands. I am a stay at home mom, so I am free anytime to let your fur babies out, take them for a walk, replenish their food and water and give extra cuddles while you’re away. I have a 5 and 3 year old who love our dog. They are very gentle with their furry sibling. Your pet will feel safe and have another furry playmate to play with. I can send pictures once a day so you don’t have to miss your baby too much.

About: My name is Tony and I’m here to help take care of your pups so you can be gone with ease. Whether a long day at the office, a weekend getaway, or an international trip, your pup will be having a great time. Along with my trusty sidekick, Dodger, I’m always out trying to find an adventure great for dogs. I live close to Cherokee Dog Park and have checked out several in the city. I’m alway an avid hiker and enjoy talking the pups along for the adventure. Pretty flexible to help make your dogs most comfortable. I’m married with no kids (other than our Aussiedoodle, Dodger) and always happy to help even if it’s last minute. Don’t hesitate to reach out! Thank you! Tony

“Brittany is absolutely amazing! She is so sweet with my dogs and takes the best pictures! I have a dog who is really shy and she just spends time with him and is so patient with him. That really means the world to me because as a single person who works a ton, it breaks my heart that I can’t be with my dogs as much as I want to be but having someone to help love on my dogs and walk them really makes me feel a lot better!”

Allison C.
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Allie and the care she provided my dogs. I have 3 dogs, one with a lot of anxiety and trust issues. Allie handled him with patience, confidence and affection. Her calm approach helped put both myself and my dog at ease. I received updates that showed how much my dogs warmed up to her. It’s not easy to find someone you trust but Allie exceeded my expectations. I came home to happy, well cared for pups. I highly recommend Allie to anyone.”
