Dog Walking Bashford Manor

“Lauran was understanding and affectionate with my granddogs , working very well both with the elderly dog and the younger strong-minded one. She was flexible to come when most needed. Lauran is mature, experienced, and able to handle the dogs easily, keeping them safe and happy. I look forward to having her care for the dogs again. She made it possible for me to care for the dogs and they love her.”

“Liz was excellent with Sophie. She took multiple pictures, was flexible, and gave relevant information in her notes. She was by far my favorite Rover person and I would strongly recommend her. My Sophie really like her a lot!”

“Eleanor is a staple of my Zeke dog’s care team. She has been walking him every week for over a year (and clearly demonstrates patience with me). Eleanor is dedicated, reliable, communicative and repeatedly steps up to help as her schedule allows. Eleanor provides invaluable care and I’m happy for those reading this to have found her!”

“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: What truly sets me apart is my nine years of comprehensive, hands-on experience caring for my family's pets, consistently since 2016. My reliable background is further proven by my time dog sitting and walking for several friends, demonstrating comfort and expertise with pets outside my own home. I'm proficient in managing both large and small breeds, having cared for a Pitbull and a Yorkie, giving me confidence with all energy and handling needs. My experience also extends to cats. I rescued a cat that I found on the street, which highlights my patience and skill in providing gentle care for nervous or shy animals. I am reliable, versatile, and deeply committed to recognizing and meeting the individual needs of both dogs and cats. Pet care fits easily into my current schedule, ensuring your pets receive focused attention without being rushed. I work part-time as a Paraoptometric Technician and dedicate other free time to volunteering, but I intentionally keep large, consistent blocks open for pet care. My reliable availability includes Tuesday afternoons, Thursday mornings and afternoons, and full availability on weekends. This structure guarantees I can provide reliable, high-quality care, whether your pet needs a mid-day walk, or regular drop-in visits. My main goal is to create a stress-free and loving experience for your pet right in their familiar environment. When I care for your dog or cat, I focus entirely on their comfort and routine. I'm meticulous about following your exact instructions for feeding, medication, and walks, making sure their schedule feels perfectly normal. I also know that security is important, so you can trust me to be mindful of your home while I provide care. I'm skilled at providing gentle companionship—like I do for my own rescue cat—which is especially helpful for nervous or shy pets. You can count on me for excellent care, a tidy pet area, and frequent photo updates so you never have to wonder how happy they are!

“Highly recommended! Always on schedule, great communication, sweet and gentle personality. Absolutely wonderful with dogs with high anxiety.”

About: I have grown up around animals and have experience with elderly dogs and very anxious cats specifically. My two childhood puppies grew up and I helped assist with their needs, such as medicine and helping them walk around with patience. I also understand what it’s like to have a very anxious cat— mine is too. I have one cat, a fish, and a snail of my own now! I’m currently building my health coaching clientele working from home. I take frequent breaks to walk at the park and often spend the majority of the day working on various tasks at home. I’m very flexible with my schedule right now! Since I have an anxious and non-sociable cat of my own at home I will be more open to visits such as drop-in’s and taking fur babies out on walks at the park right now!

“Annie was great with Chester. She was there and took great care of our little pup on his walking needs. We heartily recommend her if you’re looking for someone who loves pets and will keep you updated on their status. Can’t wait to use her again!”

Marty S.

“Very attentive and responsive. Scruffy was very happy after his walk!”

Arlet M.

“William was great with my pup! He really tired her out on their walk and followed my care instructions to a T!”

Sydney T.

“Lauren is amazing! I have two dogs, a senior and a puppy, that have different needs. She worked with me to plan their walks and communicated wonderfully. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend Lauren to help take care of your fur babies!!!”

About: Hi there! I would love to make new connections for dog walking and pet/house sitting having just recently moved back to Louisville, KY. I have had dogs of all breeds throughout my life! College educated in legal studies and work remotely in office admin. My clients will know a stable, professional, flexible and friendly caregiver for their animals. I have taken care of friends’ animals over the years with no issue and am very good at following detailed instructions on how to care for animals. I am very safe and take pets' health seriously. I have a trusted vet that can handle any emergencies if I do not have vet contact info for a client's pet. I am very interested in any questions or concerns or special pricing. Thank you! I’m currently working remotely, so I have plenty of time to devote to your pets and stay at your residence full-time (if house-sitting). I have a very flexible schedule and can work with your pet-sitting needs almost anytime I’m needed. At this time, I can only care for your pets at your home if overnight stays are requested. I have my own transportation to come out and take your pets on a walk, to the park or keep them company while you’re away. Any detailed instructions on your environment will be followed diligently.

About: Growing up, I’ve always been surrounded with pets and been given the opportunity to care for dogs numerous times. I am very patient with animals and genuinely find joy spending my time with them. After recently graduating from college and moving into a studio apartment, it has been an adjustment not being surrounded by pets. Through Rover, I’m excited to not only help others, but also to find fulfillment spending time with pets. Although I work a 9-5, I am willing to make plenty of time before or after work to accommodate your needs. I am a morning person, so I would be more than happy to take your dog on an early morning walk or be there to let them out. I also will be able to take care of them in the afternoon. My weekends are free to help at any time. You can trust me with your pet because I treat animals with the same amount of respect that I’d treat any person. It is my priority to ensure their safety while also having fun. I would love to take them on walks at the park and am open to having them at my apartment if needed.

About: Hi! I'm Haylie, a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs of all sizes. I'm based near Florida Ave NE in Washington, D.C., and I proudly serve clients across the DMV including Southeast D.C., Navy Yard, Capitol Hill, NE/SE neighborhoods, and parts of Maryland and Northern Virginia. I grew up surrounded by pets especially dogs and was always the one helping walk, feed, bathe, and care for them. I’ve even assisted dogs and cats during births when I was younger, which gave me deep insight into caring for animals at all life stages. Whether your pet needs a brisk walk, quiet cuddle time, medication, or just dependable daily visits, I’m here to help with care that’s loving, professional, and tailored to your routine. I'm comfortable with: ✔️ Dogs and cats of all breeds and sizes ✔️ Senior pets or those with special medical needs ✔️ Puppies and high-energy pets ✔️ Flexible scheduling and last-minute bookings when available Let’s make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away! Pet care is an important part of my daily life. Living near Florida Ave NE, I’m often out walking dogs in Navy Yard or stopping by for quick visits around Capitol Hill and SE D.C. I’m available mornings, afternoons, and evenings, and flexible with last-minute requests. Caring for dogs and cats isn’t just part of my routine, it shapes it. I love giving pets one-on-one attention and helping busy owners in the DMV feel at ease. I take pet safety and trust seriously, whether caring for pets in your home or mine. I follow all instructions closely, keep spaces clean and secure, and ensure your pet feels comfortable. On walks, I avoid crowded areas and match your dog’s pace. Pets staying with me enjoy a calm, pet-friendly environment. I provide regular updates so you feel connected and confident while you're away.

About: With 10+ years of hands-on dog sitting experience, I provide reliable in-home and overnight care. I’m experienced with administering medications, handling different energy levels, and maintaining structured routines. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind and dogs a calm, comfortable experience. I work remotely, so I’m home during the day and able to supervise dogs closely. This makes me a great fit for puppies, seniors, or dogs who need extra attention. Weekend availability is wide open, and weekday bookings are accepted as my schedule allows. I provide a safe, structured home environment with a secure fenced yard. My two Golden Retrievers are extremely friendly, well-trained, and experienced around other dogs. I supervise all play, separate dogs when needed, and follow each owner’s feeding and safety guidelines closely. Clear communication and photo updates are always included.

About: I have pet sat on and off for years with family, staying over and learning specific routines of each animal. Each animals expects different things! I'm also highly active and flexible so if you have an energetic furry friend, we'd get along great! I am part-time employed and a online college student. My availability will be extremely flexible due to that! My times will vary across every two weeks when I receive my work schedule. Pets in my clients home will be treated exactly as they are used to, if that means walks on a leash or letting them out to roam their fenced yard then that's exactly what we will do. My goal is to keep your loved ones comfortable and that means following their routines, not mine.

About: I have a genuine love for animals and I have been pet/house sitting for about 10 years. I have always had pets and been around all different kinds of animals. I just graduated from law school, I started my new job post law school. I do work in an office, but I am able to stop in and make sure your animal is taken care of. I live in an apartment so I would prefer to take care of a pet at your home. I am happy to walk a dog on a leash, let them out to play, play with them, take them to a dog park.

About: I have had dogs my entire life, 3 dogs at a time for a majority of that. I am attentive, loving, and super tidy. I have volunteered with the Kentucky Humane Society multiple times. I will make sure that your furry friends are well cared for and happy while you’re away. I have always been an animal lover, even as a younger kid, I would dog-sit, cat-sit, and even chicken-sit for the neighbors and family members. So if you have chickens, rest assured it isn’t my first rodeo in the coop! I have also dog sat numerous times throughout high school for friends, family members, and family-friends. I am a college student and avid theatre artist. I am free during the summer and will be working my day job as a server. Typical shifts are around 4 hours and can discuss potential schedule work arounds for your furry friends! I will always give your furry friends attention (if they want it) and make sure that they are happy, well fed, and walked. Me and your pet are sure to be best friends by the time you get back!
