“Sarah was an excellent communicator, sent pictures, and was flexible when we needed to adjust the time frame a bit. We highly recommend Sarah, our pup had a great time:)”

“Sarah was great! She was prompt in her communication and got in a good distance for the walk. I’m sure Mo had a great time! Will be a repeat!”


About: I have grown up with dogs in the house my whole life. I am especially comfortable taking care of older and senior dogs and adapting to their needs (ex. blind/deaf) and have lived with small to medium breeds. However, I am also experienced with taking care of younger and larger breeds (ex. 1 year old English Labs). I have recently graduated from my undergraduate program, and have plenty of free time while looking for full-time employment. I do have a daughter, which may limit certain appointment times but should be flexible as I do have relatives to help, should I need to check on your pets. Experienced with young and elderly dogs, I am always sure to keep an eye on them when they are outside to prevent any escape or injury, regardless of a fence. If needed, I can also sit with special animals on a schedule, to ensure they go to sleep after meals or a walk.
“Kara truly cared about my dog and his well being. I would trust her to come in my home/hotel and care for my dog, anytime im in the area. She understood what was needed and his needs. I would not hesitate to recommend her as a pet sitter/dog walker!!”

“Mackenzie is absolutely the best! This is my second time booking with her (and Rover). She took care of Maverick during 4th of July weekend and she even took Maverick for the whole day without extra charge. She sent me pictures of Maverick during the day and he looked so happy. I would totally recommend booking her.”

“Morgan is absolutely the best pet sitter! I had my daughter’s wedding and was able to relax and focus on other things because she was so dependable, reliable, and so caring and genuine. Thank you again so much for loving Marley! He already misses you!”

“Angelee did a great job with our dog during his first “alone” time in the house during vacation. She reliably kept the routine and was super communicative, making sure we knew all was well. We’ll be sure to ask her again :)”

“Tiffany is wonderful to work with -- communicative, prompt, reliable. I know Stevie really enjoys her time with Tiffany, and we look forward to many more walks in the future!”

“Katherine is great! She was so understanding and patient, and judging by the pictures she took, my dog loved walking with her. She was also great with communication!”


“Jeff was seriously amazing with our dogs while we were away for 5 days. We have two big, energetic golden retrievers that can definitely be a lot sometimes, and he handled them really well. He came by three times a day, took them on great walks, gave them lots of attention, and just genuinely cared about them. He started out walking them one at a time, but once our pups became a bit more familiar he did both at once like a superstar! What we really appreciated was how communicative and flexible he was the whole time. He always kept us updated (with lots of photos!), was super easy to work with, and gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were gone. Our dogs absolutely loved him, and we came home to two very happy dogs and everything in great shape. We’d 100% trust Jeff to watch them again and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone reliable, honest, and really good with dogs.”


About: I have taken care of dogs for over 10 years and have vast experience in walking, feeding, administering medications, etc. I even started volunteering at a pet store at the age of 8 and stayed there for many years! I’m working part time so I have quite a lot of time on my hands to give your pups the right amount of attention they need. I have a fenced in yard with a lot of grass that is very dog friendly. I also have two of the sweetest most playful doodles to keep your dog company!!
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 8 but began house sitting when I turned 16. I have experienced taking care of dogs, cats , horses and even chickens. while looking after your fur babies they will be given excellent care as if they were my own. A love to photograph animals so with my care come a free mini photoshoot. With your permission of course! My 1 year old black lab absolutely loves to play with others. So if your pup needs a buddy to burn off some energy she’s your pup . I work 6:30am to 2:30pm but I’m free the rest of the time to do pop in or walks. If I’m staying at your house I bring in my own food and drink. And stay with your fur baby the whole time. If I’m in home sitting I do a minimum of 3 30 min walks a day. 1 before work ,after work and before bed. And depending on your fur babies energy I’ll add in extra play time if needed. I’m stuck to strictly feeding schedules so whatever time you have them eat I’ll make sure to do they same. To help keep them in their normal routine. If I’m doing a drop in I can go walks /runs for about an hour unless you need me to take them for more time.
“Addelynn has been great with our new pup. We are gone most of the day for work and she comes on the days when we wont be home until late. She is responsive, walks him 20 minutes and sends pictures as well as how he did and if he went potty. Would recommend! Thanks!”


About: I’ve owned dogs and cats since I was a kid my family loves animals. I dog sit for family friends and have taken care of animals as veterinarian tech. I’m currently a student at UK and take a mix of online and short in person classes. My schedule is pretty relaxed as I don’t have classes everyday of the week. When I do have class I’m home a lot between classes and have time to check on animals every 2 hours. I live near campus so I can take your pet on walks around campus or to the park. I live in a pet free and smoke free apartment and can easily crate your pet if needed.
About: I have been pet sitting for 5 years and my friends, family and neighbors all have trusted me to take care of their pets for years. I have experience in basic obedience training with young dogs. I have trained my 2 dogs and have done some work with other puppies. I have experience with administrating medicine to senior animals. I also have experience with reptiles, I used to be a pet keeper at a pet store and picked up many useful skills during that time. I am currently working part time. Shifts are about 4 to 7 hours long but only 3 days a week. Daily walks are no problem, I can fit that into my daily schedule. I usually like to discuss with the clients that have booked with me about my schedule for that week. I usually do not house pets in my home due to the fact that we have many animals and things can get difficult. In a client's home I usually follow the instructions that I am provided for the pets diet and routine. I love playing and spending time with all my clients animals!
About: I have been around pets my whole life, but dogs are my favorite! I love them all, from puppies to the senior friends. I regularly care for my family dogs and I have experience caring for friends dogs and I have several regular clients. I have experience with puppy care and training, bathing, feeding, and administering medication. I also have experience with senior dog care nearing the end of life and all others in between. I have no trouble creating the special bond needed with most dog personalities. Dogs are truly our best friends! I play and exercise my own dogs daily. I understand the importance of keeping dogs engaged, healthy, and active. I do have a part-time job, but schedules are flexible given enough notice. I am so excited to care for your pup! I like to make sure the doggie is a happy, tired doggie when I do have to leave them. They love me and know fun is in store when I’m around. I play fetch and frisbee in the backyard and go on long walks around the neighborhood. If we can’t be outside I’ll play games with them indoors to challenge their minds and keep them occupied. Then of course there’s snuggle time together until they’re ready to nap or go to sleep in their crates or bed.
“This is my first time hiring Leslie. It’s impressive that she followed all my instructions and requests. And all my dogs were so happy to see her. I will definitely hire her again and would highly recommend her to all the pet owners.”

Savannah accepted my last minute request to walk my doggo. She came to the house to meet us and I knew immediately that she would take great care of him. She arrived promptly at my requested time, walked him and gave him fresh water before she left. I highly recommend Savannah!
