“Catherine is the best! She takes the cutest pictures of my cats, gives me thorough updates, and goes above and beyond every time. I will always rebook her when I can!”

“She was great and took great care of my puppy when I was nervous about leaving her. She was very thorough and sent lots of updates and pictures.”

“As always Sarah takes the best care of my babies. I can tell by the pics that they are always excited to see her. I have such peace of mind knowing she’s with them.”

“Kara was wonderful! We had never left our cats alone for more than 2 days and were anxious about just having drop in visits for 4-5 days. She was communicative, thorough, and great with the cats. Even our shy cat came out of her shell for play time during visits which amazed me. I will absolutely be using her services again and would recommend her highly!”

“Katherine was communicative while I was away, and I came back to a very happy cat! I felt completely at ease knowing she was taking care of Chevy.”


“Jeff is The Cat Whisperer. I was nervous about leaving my 3 cats while I went on a nearly 2 week vacation - the longest this crew has been on their own - but there was no need to worry given Jeff's attentive care. He clearly has a talent for connecting with cats. He provided excellent communication, great photos and overall loving care to my furr devils. I'm super happy with this experience and highly recommend his services.”

“Caitlin was great with our pup! She communicated ahead of time and made sure Shadow was taken care of. She was intentional with playing with him and providing us updates. Will be using her in the future!”

“jessica was awesome. she followed instructions well and i could tell she really cared for my dog. i already have rebooked with her and would highly recommend!”

“Sara is awesome! She watched my kitten for a long weekend, and he seemed very happy when I got home. She takes great pictures with lots of updates, and even came by for a meet and greet before hand! Would book again!”

“Tiffany was great! This was our first time using rover and everything went so smoothly! Tiffanys communication was great and we would love to utilize her in the future!”

“I cannot say enough get things about Kylie. She was prompt, great with communication, flexible, but most important my dog loves her. He was genuinely happier on days he saw Kylie and that is invaluable. Thank you so much Kylie! ❤️”

About: I grew up on a farm in NC surrounded by animals, and dogs have always been a big part of my life. Caring for pets comes naturally to me, and I enjoy getting to know each dog's unique personality and needs. I recently moved to Lexington with my husband, who is a veterinarian, which has given me an even greater appreciation for pet health and well-being. Whether your dog is an energetic puppy, a senior needing extra patience, or somewhere in between, I'll provide attentive, reliable care while you're away! I currently work part-time and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting throughout the week. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and make sure each pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care. When caring for pets in a client's home, I do my best to maintain their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, medications, or simply providing companionship, I follow each owner's instructions closely and treat every home and pet with the same care and respect I would my own. As a pet owner myself to an 11½-year-old Maltipoo, I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your furry family member.
“jordan was such a big help this week when i had a last minute trip. she responded quickly and updated me with photos of my cats each time she left my house. by the looks of the pictures, my cats seemed to be very happy and comfortable with her there 😊 will definitely book with her again in the future!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember, with experience ranging from dogs and cats to turtles and hermit crabs. I’m comfortable caring for pets in all stages of life, from energetic puppies who need patience, consistency, and basic training reinforcement to senior dogs who may require extra attention, slower walks, medication support, or mobility assistance. I pride myself on being dependable, attentive, and compassionate with every pet I care for. I understand that each animal has a different personality and routine, and I work to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding schedules, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet like they are my own. I am currently in grad school, so my daily schedule is a little wonky. My days usually start around 8 am and end at 4 pm. Besides that I am wide open to care for your pet and I will be able to stop by during breaks in my days! I am more than comfortable to crate animals if needed. I am attentive and caring, the same levels I would wish someone would give my own pet.
About: Hi, my name is John and I have loved and cared for dogs and cats since I was 15. I've had several rescue dogs, including a tri-paw Belgian Melanois, who passed away in 2019. I currently live with Max, a beagle rescue. I work five days a week from home, so will be with your dog all day. I'll take your dog and my dog Max on numerous walks throughout the day in downtown Lexington. I'll provide attention and care for your dog. There are are plenty of green space during our walks. Safety, wellness, and happiness for any dog under my care is priority. I would like to schedule a meet and greet, to gather as much information as possible about your dog. Thank you

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!!
“Addelynn was great watching my cats, and would definitely recommend her! Super easy communication to schedule and coordinate keys with her. She took care of both my cats & sent updates and photos for my peace of mind while I was away. It seems like she already became close friends with my cat Ricky who was purring in her lap after only 2 visits, which makes having to be away even easier <3”

About: I have recently relocated to Lexington KY and am looking to expand my business here. I will treat your pet as if they were mine. Available most of the day; just let me know in advance I could bathe and socialize them. I will take them to the dog park or walk them with my other dog walk clients (if you want) I can hike with your dog or run with them. Or just relax and chill. I am very loving and sweet. I have grown up with dogs and adore them with my heart. I have two dogs currently. One is my own service dog. I love dogs and everything about them. I work from home, so I am very flexible. I have an open heart to please your dog. I like to hike at least once a week and have lots of play and relaxation. And of course walks daily. I have a fenced yard, toys, treats, and more available for your pup. I will respect your wishes in your house of how to handle your dog.
“Thank you so much to Addie for checking in on Wally and Pip! She kept them entertained despite the bad weather and from the pictures they clearly enjoyed seeing her again!”

Sara is always a blessing when I need her. She is always detailed and makes sure my senior cat is good. I’ve been worrying more about him lately as he continues to get older, but I don’t worry as much when she looks after him. She always is able to implement the new stuff I need to do for him as he gets older as well.

I valued Ariel responsiveness and conscientious care are for our two kitties. One of them is very skittish and the other one is pretty old. They both seemed comfortable with Ariel and came out of hiding to hang out with her--which is a big deal, and unusual! I am grateful that I didn't need to worry about our fur babies during our trip. If we have future trips, I hope Ariel will be available to watch them again.

Emelyn has been absolutely wonderful. Reliable, communicative, and clearly loves what she does, she always takes such great care of our dog. We come home to a happy, well-exercised pup every time. It’s such a comfort knowing our dog is in such capable and caring hands—highly recommend!
Ashleigh was great! She helped take care of Penelope while I was out of town for work and did an awesome job. She was so loving towards Penelope and made sure she was well taken care of! She was on time, thorough, and provided lots of pictures and visit recaps!

Addelynn was great watching my cats, and would definitely recommend her! Super easy communication to schedule and coordinate keys with her. She took care of both my cats & sent updates and photos for my peace of mind while I was away. It seems like she already became close friends with my cat Ricky who was purring in her lap after only 2 visits, which makes having to be away even easier <3
