Dog Walking Colby

About: I have always been passionate about helping and caring for people and animals. I have care experience with many breeds and types of animals, including dogs, cats, birds, rodents, reptiles, and horses. I adore dogs especially — their friendliness, loyalty, and energetic demeanor is contagious, and I love them so much for it! My dream is to rescue animals and help to find their forever homes. I will love and care for your pet(s) like my own. As for more about me, I am originally from Kentucky, and I studied music, specifically opera, all throughout college. I am a singer, actress, model, chef-in-the-making, fitness guru, social media influencer, artist, writer, and much more. I enjoy meeting new people and animals, and my greatest goal in life is to help as many others, human and animal, as I possibly can! I am able to check in as early at 9am, and as late as 9pm. I often have my children with me, and they either wait in the car or join us for walks in their stroller. I like to gather as much information from you as possible so that I can recreate your pet’s daily routine while you’re away! I enjoy giving animals the best, most comfortable and familiar experience as possible.

“Dax was very detailed at all times with his responses and notes. I felt very comfortable letting him take care of my dogs especially seeing the many pictures he took while he was there. He does a great job!”

About: I have 3 dogs of my own and have cared for many! For long periods or short periods, I know how hard it is to trust someone to watch your pups. My house is completely dog proof at this point. They will definitely be in good hands! I started rover because as a pet parent, the thought of finding someone to trust with my dog makes me so nervous. I really want to ease others minds and know their dog is in the hands of someone who LOVES to do this. I really enjoy making these dogs happy and taken care of. I truly treat them like my own, which is like my children! This is now my full time job so I will be home fully with your pet unless I have other drop-in visits to complete. My dogs are very friendly and like playing with others. Each of my dogs are AKC certified CGC (canine good citizens). My yard is fenced in and completely secure. My house is doggy proof, no one is eating anything they shouldn’t on my watch! Everything that a dog could get into is put up. I have a pool opened in the summer with stairs that the dogs can go into, also separately fenced for the pups that can’t swim. Keeping a clean and sanitized house is important to me for my dogs and your dogs health. My couch covers are washed weekly and my floors and my dog’s crates are cleaned with kennel sol which kills most dog related illnesses. My dogs are vaccinated. You are more than welcome inside my house to see the set up!

“We are so blessed to have found Maria to walk our dog, Aria. She's been walking Aria 3-4 times a week for a year now, and she loves Aria like she's her own. I could not speak more highly of her. We love, Maria!”

“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.”

About: I grew up riding horses and having small dogs around the house, so caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I've been dog and cat sitting off and on for the past 8 years, and I've been working in barns and caring for horses for 12. Today, I'm lucky enough to have a dog and cat of my own, so I understand how important it is to have someone you truly trust caring for your pets while you're away. I have a bachelor's degree in Equine Science, with Animal Science as one of my three minors. Through my education and years of hands-on experience, I've developed a strong understanding of animal care, behavior, health, and daily management across a variety of animals. I have experience caring for senior pets, anxious and reactive animals, and animals with additional medical needs. I'm comfortable administering medications and following detailed care instructions to ensure each pet receives the care they need. Whether your pet wants to go on a long walk or hike, play their favorite games, or simply curl up on the couch, I'm happy to meet them where they are. I care about getting to know each pet’s personality and routine, so they feel comfortable and happy while you’re away. Their well-being is always my top priority, and I’ll keep you updated along the way so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I genuinely love animals and feel incredibly lucky to spend my time caring for them. I'd love the opportunity to get to know you and your pets and make your time away a little easier! I work remotely and have a very flexible schedule, so I can be with your pets whenever is needed. Just let me know when you would prefer me there, and I can make it work! I want every pet to feel safe and comfortable while they're in my care. I take the time to learn their routines and personalities, follow your instructions closely, and give them the individual attention they need. I treat every animal as if they were my own, so you can have peace of mind and enjoy your time away.

“Isabella was great. Our dog was happy to see her and she treated our dog like her own. I highly recommend Isabella!”

About: I grew up with three dogs, so taking care of pets has always been a part of my life. I genuinely enjoy being around animals, whether it’s spending time with dogs, visiting cat cafés, or stopping by the humane society to hang out with the animals there. I’m patient, dependable, and I’ll make sure your pets get the attention, care, and love they deserve while you’re away. Have also house and plant sat for people over the years and always enjoyed helping out. I work full time, so I have a consistent routine and know how to manage my time well. I’m available before and after work, on my days off, and can work with pet owners to make sure their pets stay on their normal schedule. I’m reliable, communicative, and committed to giving every pet the care and attention they deserve. I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed. In a client’s home, I respect their space, keep doors secured, follow feeding and medication instructions carefully, and provide plenty of attention, exercise, and fresh water. I also like to send updates and photos so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away.

About: Ive taken care of dogs and cats all my life I personally have 2 dogs and one cat. Ive lived around animals my whole life and love them all dearly. I am currently a college student and I am in a musical theatre production but I will have plenty of time for your pets in between classes and before and after rehearsals! I will give your pets all the attention I do not offer services in my home because my cat is very jumpy but I will gladly come over and keep your baby company, walk them and feed them.

“Chay did a great job and even took my request on short notice. Was very responsive to messaging to get things set up. Would absolutely work with her again!”

About: I’ve grown up on a farm, caring for various types of animals including dogs, cats, horses, hamsters, guinea pigs, and fish. I have years of experience working at animal shelters and clinics which makes me prepared for any type of situation. I’m skilled in providing loving, reliable care for all animals, big and small. I’m currently a full time college student so I will have classes throughout the day but am available in the mornings and the afternoons. Weekends are usually free unless noted otherwise. Ensuring a safe, calm, and comfortable environment is my priority. I’ll make sure your pup feels secure and happy while under my care, providing them with all the attention and safety they deserve!

About: I've lived in a cat household for 17 years and have loved every second of it! I also have experience doing drop-ins, walks, and overnights with dogs ranging from the puppy stage to senior dogs. I love the snuggles and play time, and would love to help take care of your fur babies whenever needed! I work from home and am flexible and very dependable when needed! I live in south-central Lexington and am 10-15 minutes away from just about everywhere in town. I understand how important it is to ensure the happiness of your fur babies. I will engage your dog or cat in fun playtime that lets them get their energy out, take them on walks (if applicable), and then top it all off with a good meal and plenty of belly rubs to make any furry friend happy!

About: I've been a lover of animals all my life and have worked with service dogs in training. I will treat animals as if they are my own! I am currently an architecture college student studying at UK! I have busy schedule on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays, but I have a pretty open after 11am on Thursdays and before noon + after 6pm on Fridays. Additionally, I am free every week day after 6pm and all weekends! I will not be able to care for pups in my home. I live in an university dorm and currently training a service dog in training for 4Paws.

About: I have grown up with dogs and puppies my whole life. I take my pets to get groomed and to their vet appointments, make them fun treats, walk them, and make sure their needs are fully met. My dogs have grown up kennel trained so I know how important it is to make the kennel a positive space. I also understand that giving dogs human food can make their stomachs upset and keeping them on their regular diet is imperative. I am currently a student at UK and only have classes on Tuesday and Thursday. My Wednesdays are full with shadowing at Bluegrass Orthopedics. My Mondays, Fridays, and weekends are free typically. I am not allowed to to have dogs in my home because I currently rent. I am willing to drive them places though. I am willing to bring them to my house for short periods of time under certain circumstances.

About: I have several years of experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities. I’ve helped my friend with everything from daily walks to overnight stays, and I always make sure each dog feels safe, happy, and understood. I’m patient with shy dogs, gentle with seniors, and playful with energetic pups. I follow feeding schedules closely, keep routines consistent, and make sure every dog gets plenty of exercise, bathroom breaks, and attention. Whether it’s a calm walk, fetch in the yard, or quiet cuddle time, I adjust to whatever your dog needs. I also provide frequent photo and video updates so you can feel connected while you’re away. Your dog will be cared for with love, respect, and the same attention I would give my own. I’m currently a graduate student with a very flexible schedule. I spend most of my time at home, so I’m able to check in on pets frequently and keep their routine consistent. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and house sitting throughout the week, including evenings and weekends. Your pet will get plenty of attention, playtime, and care every day. I take safety very seriously and always follow your instructions exactly—whether it’s feeding, litter care, medication, or keeping doors secured. I’m calm, patient, and respectful of each pet’s space, especially shy or anxious animals. In your home, I make sure everything stays clean and comfortable, and I send frequent photo updates so you always know how your pet is doing. I treat every pet with the same care and kindness I give my own.

About: After experiencing the tragic loss of my own cats due to a negligent pet sitter, I became deeply committed to providing the highest level of care for all animals. That experience taught me how vital it is to entrust pets to someone who not only understands their needs but treats them like family. I specialize in senior pet care, offering compassionate support for aging pets, including administering medications, managing health conditions, and providing gentle, tailored exercise routines. I also have experience training puppies, helping them develop good behaviors early on and ensuring they have the structure they need to thrive. My focus is always on building trust and creating a safe, loving environment for your pets, so they feel comfortable and secure when you're away. Above all, I aim to offer peace of mind to pet owners, knowing their animals are in caring, responsible hands. Available almost anytime in Lexington and surrounding areas contact in advance is recommended but we can take last-minute calls depending on the situation and what not. Also I work with you budget! I have a park near me and I do take my own dog to the dog park every chance I get via Lyft and plenty of toys for your fur babies!

About: I am a prevet student and have been taking care of animals of all forms since I was roughly 9 years old. I have a dog of my own, her name is Ellie, and she is very playful and loving with other animals including cats and people. I trained her myself and am able to work with younger pups as well as elder. I currently do not have a job and am trying to find small ways to make myself some money that is a little bit easier on myself. So any time can work for me as of now. I am very big on safety when it comes to my animals and will be with yours too. All animals have a special place in my heart whether UT be mine or not.

About: I am a dog lover! My 4 year old golden is my heart and I would love to help others out with their fur family. Caring for animals is a passion and enjoyable for me I work from home for my full time job and my schedule is incredibly flexible so could do those mid day walks that are tough to swing. Pets are family, so it’s important to treat them and provide top notch service! I treat any pet I care for as I would want my own dog treated

About: I’ve always been an animal lover and have years of experience caring for pets of my own as well as pets for friends and family. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, litter boxes, basic routines, and giving pets plenty of attention and affection. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m dependable, patient, attentive, and will treat your pets like they’re my own! Pet care fits easily into my routine, and I’m happy to work with each pet’s individual schedule and needs. I have flexibility throughout the week for drop-in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I’m also willing to coordinate with owners ahead of time to make sure I can provide consistent and reliable care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I carefully follow all instructions provided by owners, including feeding schedules, medications, routines, and any special needs. I’m respectful of your home and pay close attention to doors, gates, leashes, and anything else that could affect your pet’s safety. I’ll also provide updates and photos so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.

About: Dog Walking: Can be over thirty minutes (based on your preference), but additional charges may apply. I love taking care of all dogs and cats! Both of us could use the exercise anyways, and they will come home as happy as ever! House Sitting: Available for more than one night. Your pet will get my undivided attention the whole time I'm there (Plant care services complimentary). I am a working sitter with my own pup, so if overnights stays are your preference, then I may not be your flavor, and that’s okay! Drop-In Visits: Available for more than thirty minutes (additional charges may apply). Your pet will get lots of love and pets while you're away! I can do these around my work schedule! It varies so please feel free to inquire. About Me: - 25 years old - Licensed Mental Health Therapist - B.S in Psychology, M.S. in Clinical Mental Health - Very neat and clean. - Reliable! - Doing this for fun, and the other owners. - Will answer any questions you may have! - Really just trying to pay down my student loans :) I work around a varied schedule in Mt. Sterling, KY, Tues-Sat. It varies with my clients, so check in to see if I can work you in!! I do have my own doggy, but I can always work yours into my schedule as well! Overnight stays are not preferred. This will depend on my husbands schedule, as he is gone 24hrs every third day (first responder). Please please please keep in mind that I am a working sitter, so I will not be available to stay 24/7. If that’s what you prefer, than I’m not the best fit for your needs, and thats okay! If your dog cannot do potty breaks for more than 4 hours in between, I’m not the best fit! While I’m at the house, your pet will have my undivided attention and I’d be happy to give any special care needed. I do adore dogs and hope to give back any way I can to other pet owners in need. I know we can’t always turn to friends/family with our pets, but you still want them to be treated as such! This is just a fun way for me to help pay my student loans down :) I care for pets based on your needs/preferences. Depending on the instructions you give me! We love play time and walks :). I will not do anything that is not approved or pre-described.
