“Jaimie was communicative, responsible, and got along great with my cat. I had a good peace of mind while I was away for the weekend. I will definitely work with her again!”
“Tabitha took great care of my 2 cats. I came back to their food and water full, and the little box clean. I received texts and pics everyday so I knew they were doing good. Thank you Tabitha!”
“Morgan did a great job keeping us updated while she watched our kitten for a week! We got picture and video updates on how she was sleeping and eating the entire week!”
“Being new to Kentucky - we didn't have our foundation of friends who could cat-sit for us whenever we needed. It was very daunting to try and find a completely new sitter who was kind and trustworthy. We nervously got on Rover and saw so many great profiles, but something about Madeline stuck with us. Since then - Madeline has watched our picky, stinky, and needy cat, Extra Gravy, twice now and we're pretty sure he likes Madeline more than us now! We feel so at ease knowing that Extra Gravy is in good hands and being taken care by the best possible! Whenever we take a trip or have something come up - we'll always book with Madeline! Rest assured, your furry family are safe, cared for, and getting love and attention when with this kind and calm sitter! 10/10!”
About: My Grandmother was a Colorado State award-winning dog trainer and I grew up helping her with her three Belgian Tervurans. I've owned dogs throughout my life. I have three kids aged 2, 4, and 7 who have grown up around all types of animals. We currently have two cats and two ferrets. We are very active with our animals and play with them often throughout the day! My wife and I both work 35 hours a week on opposite schedules. One of us is always available! The kids and I are home in the day time to hang out with our new friends! We have a large fenced in back yard with only one exterior entry point which is double gated. The double gated side yard is where we usually meet the owners when they come for pick up. The double gated entry way provides protection from dogs escaping. Wehave a large metal container that we use as a water trough that we fill with ice water 3 times a day to keep all dogs well hydrated! We have lots of dog toys for the back yard as well. Inside, dog beds are on the main floor and they have free access to the house. We do not provide kennels but will use one if it is brought and is the owners preference. Dogs eat at the same time we eat. We can skip lunchtime if your dogs only eat two meals a day. We send LOTS of pictures and updates throughout the day!

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I know how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your furry family members. I’m here to give your pets the same love, attention, and respect they get at home. From long walks to quiet cuddle time, I follow your routine to keep them comfortable and content. I have had my own pets for 15+ years plus, different kinds of them. You can count on me for consistent, reliable, and loving care. I understand the trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s hands, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’ll keep you updated with photos and notes, so you always know how your pet is doing. Safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I always provide a calm, secure, and loving environment where pets can feel relaxed and at home. I take time to learn each animal’s personality, routines, and any special needs they have whether it’s dietary restrictions, medications, or just needing extra cuddles and patience. I’m gentle, attentive, and always go at your pet’s pace, especially if they’re shy, anxious, or adjusting to a new situation. Clean water, a safe space, plenty of playtime, and lots of affection are always part of my care. I also give regular updates with photos and messages so you feel connected and reassured while you’re away. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel confident, comfortable, and cared for every step of the way.

I am flexible with scheduling and will accommodate your needs whenever possible. I provide the services my client's need, adapting to each pet and housing situation.

Sara K.
“The best! She was willing to come a day early to take care of our kitty’s when the bad weather was headed our way! Very grateful for Sara ❤️”
Kayla M.
“Kayla is a wonderful person and absolutely loves animals. Hence why she waorks at a veterinary clinic. She has 3 dogs and 3 cats and loves them more than anything. There is no shortness of attention when it comes to animals and pets. Pretty sure her 1st though of the day and last thought of the day is "pets". She's always getting her dogs toys, taking them on walks and spoiling them with all of her love. Her entire family calls her 1st when they have a question about their own pets, heck even her friends call her 1st. Her family is a family of 12(4 kids, her fiance, and her 3 cats and 3 dogs.) Great choice for a pet sitter if you ask me. 10 out of 10 definitely recommend”
Ana G.
“I’m so grateful I found Ana. Leaving my dogs with someone new always makes me a little anxious, but they made the whole experience easy and reassuring. They were super communicative, kind, and clearly comfortable around animals. One of my dogs can be a little nervous around new people, but he warmed up to them so quickly and it was honestly a relief. When I got home, everything was just as I left it, and both dogs were happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. You can tell Ana really treats animals with love and respect. Highly recommend!”

Luci C.
“Luci was wonderful with my JoJo! Her space is accommodating and safe for pets and she is very patient and loving. I feel very comfortable leaving my baby with Luci, and I’m sure we will use her again!”
Kaylin P.
“Kaylin did everything I asked of her. Sassie was glad to see us. Thanks Kaylin. I will use her again.”
Cullen M.
“Cullen has dog sat for me plenty of times and always does a fantabulous job! always up to par with the necessities needed for my fur babies!”
Nyasia A.
“My wife and I hired Nyasia to spend a couple of nights at our house to take care of our fur kids. I have nothing but praise for her. Our past experiences with pet sitters have been kind of "drop in" situations - pet sitters who come by a few times a day (however you arrange it) and spend a bit of time with your pets, feeding if necessary. This was the first time we had someone stay with our pets, and it was a wonderful experience knowing they had someone close by all the time. We've used corporate pet sitting companies where they have websites or apps where they add updates and photos - those are fine, but every time we hired them, someone new had to be trained with our pets. We've also had individuals like Nyasia who may be great with the pets, but never provide photos or updates. Nyasia was constantly providing us with updates. We knew when everyone ate, that they took their pills, and how they slept. We got a lot of great pictures to help with our peace of mind. Nyasia was especially wonderful because it was going to be an easy visit until some of our pets ended up needing to be on special foods or have to take additional meds, and she didn't bat an eye. She was able to handle it all. I especially liked that she asked questions if there was something we didn't tell her or perhaps regarding something that was confusing in our instructions. Always better to ask then make a mistake. And in spite of us telling her that she didn't need to walk any of our dogs (most are too old or too annoying to walk), she still took our energetic guys out for multiple daily walks, just because it made the pups happy. We came home to a clean house (above and beyond the call of duty) and happy and healthy babies. Her prices were very reasonable for 24 hour care, and I have no hesitation what-so-ever recommending Nyasia to all potential customers. She is wonderful.”
