Dog Walking Cherokee Gardens

“Desiree was absolutely wonderful with my Siren. She is the dog walker you dream of having walk your dog. It's clear that Desiree is a dog lover and only has your dog's best interest at heart. I highly recommend her and have already to all of my friends in the Louisville area. She's very accommodating very prompt and professional. I cannot recommend her enough.”

About: I have been an animal lover, animal rescuer and pet care taker all my life. I have walked dogs, and cared for cats since I was a child. I currently have a special needs cat, plus two others high needs(spoiled) kitties. I have a good deal of experience medicating and caring for cats and dogs. I walk my parents’ dog for them daily. I took care of a neighbors cats for her while she was traveling for almost a year. Your animal babies will always be safe and cared for with me. I am currently an online ESL instructor for JCPS. I work from home part-time. I also need to be able to medicate my own epileptic kitty at 9 am and 9 pm every day. My schedule is very flexible around these reaponsibilities. I am an experienced, responsible and caring dog walker. I can provide pets with care and company in their homes in whatever way is the least disruptive and the most comforting to them.

“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.”

“Justin was fantastic! He came to walk my Great Pyrenees, Boo, who can be reactive to other dogs on walks, and I immediately felt confident leaving him in Justin’s care. Before the walk, he took the time to ask questions. Justin was incredibly kind and patient with Boo, and it was obvious that Boo had a great time! He even came early in the morning to help us beat the summer heat, which I really appreciated. After their one hour walk, Boo came home happy, relaxed, and tired! I highly recommend Justin to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and knowledgeable dog walker. We’ll definitely be booking with him again!”

“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!”

About: As a previously Licensed Veterinary Technician with more than 30 years of experience in veterinary medicine, I've cared for dogs of every breed, size, age, and personality—from energetic puppies to senior dogs with special medical needs. I'm comfortable administering oral and injectable medications, and I am familiar with post-operative care. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playing fetch, or simply spending time with a caring companion, I can match each visit to their individual needs and routine. My goal is to make your dog feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I'll provide dependable care, plenty of attention, and regular updates so you can have complete peace of mind knowing your best friend is in experienced hands. I am retired, so my scheule is very flexible for late morning, afternoon, and evening visits and walks. I can also do weekends and most holidays. I am unable to care for pets in my own home with 3 cats that are very content with the current housing situation and few guests.

“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: I have been a kennel attendant since February of 2025 but I have been around animals my whole life I love creating a positive experience for your furry friend. I treat every pet as my own, keeping a safe and consistent routine. I can maintain high-energy pets with active play time enrichment along with maintaining a clean secure environment. I am vigilant in observing pets for any signs of distress. I follow pre-discussed plans, and immediately communicate any issues. I’m currently working a few days a week so I can stop in anytime after 6:30 everyday or we can set specific times on Tuesday Wednesday/Friday Saturday! I’m only available to clients homes. I constantly give owners updates as needed any laundry or extra task they ask to be completed gets done!

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: I’ve owned dogs all my life, therefore I know how to take care of them. I’ve looked after neighbors dogs before when they were out of the house. I love to get to know dogs personalities and who they are. I am a college student but most of my classes are online, I am available during the day whenever you need me! I do have commitments on Fridays from 4-6 but other than that I should be available! I love to walk my dog Danny! I always keep him on the leash but he is very friendly. When I enter your home, I will respect any rules we set. Your dog will be my responsibility for that time slot we choose and I will make sure they are safe throughout my entire stay, however long.

About: I’ve owned fur babies my entire life and have recently began caring for my friends and families fur babies when they need help. I’ll treat your fur babies as my own which means spending ample time with them playing or snuggling, keeping them on a consistent schedule, and making sure they never feel alone or sad whether you’re gone for a few hours or a few days! Fur babies make the world go round and deserve to be treated as such! I am currently working very part-time so I have plenty of time to spend with your sweet babies. My availability varies from week to week a little bit but for the most part I’m able to make my own schedule, it’ll just be the occasional weeks that it doesn’t mirror my typical availability! I will be extremely careful to follow all instructions on keeping them safe in your home and making sure they feel comfortable with me as well!

“Maddy did so well with walking my pups this week! I really appreciate the pictures and reliability. :) highly recommend”

About: I have animals of all kinds growing up! From a mountain lion, up to 7 dogs to reptiles! I have been exposed to it all and things rarely phase me! I work remotely so I am free almost all the time with a lot of flexibility for all your needs! I can work from anywhere so it is around your schedule and preference for the most part. When watching pets in a clients home I will follow their care guide and ask any questions as they come up! I will also thoroughly clean up any messes the pets may make in the home.

About: I've had at least 3 dogs within my family at a time, ranging for 50-130 pounds. I have experience with all breeds of dogs from toy poodles to great danes, and I've never met a dog I don't love. I've taken care of dogs who had daily pill regimens, and dogs who love to start their day at 6 am, so I've gained some interesting experience along the way. I'm very patient with puppies because I've trained two puppies already, and I know the type of commitment it takes to maintain training. I always had bigger breeds growing up so I'm always open to dogs other people might be hesitant about, and I know there's no such thing as a bully breed!
