“Margaret was wonderful! She was very professional not only in taking care of my cat but also in communicating with me while I was away. She is a very kind person. I highly recommend her to everyone!”


“We were very nervous about having someone walk our boys for the first time, but Amanda was absolutely great with them! She sent plenty of pictures and videos of their walk and playing in the house. We are so appreciative of her and will definitely book again when needed!”


“I recently moved from NY to KY and was in need of someone to help care for my four dogs. I had spoken to many people and wasn’t comfortable with anyone as I had my prior dog walker in Ny for over 10 years. I found Tanika and she and I hit it off right away: she was super accommodating to my ever changing schedule. I was nervous to have my one rescue dog meet anyone because he could be unpredictable. Tanika came armed with treats and was relaxed and so easy going with all the dogs that he took to her first!!!! Tanika had been above and beyond amazing . She helps with my dogs that have medical issues and she is always there when and if I need her. She takes care of my dogs as if they were her own and I’ve never had to worry about them when I’m away. She is an absolute god send and I highly recommend her!”


“Dina is awesome!! She is great with dogs and intuitively knows what they need. She always sends me adorable update photos of her loving on my puppy when I’m away at work!”


“Phillip was amazing with my kitty Scooter. He took care of her while I was away for a week and I was astonished at the magic that he worked on her. She is a sweet girl that can take some time to warm up to people, but he got her to play with him in no time. I will definitely be booking Phillip again the next time Scooter is in need of a sitter, and I highly recommend him for any other cat owners in the area.”


“Chelsea is awesome! She came and cared for my baby dog at last minute’s notice during the holiday season. She intuitively understands dogs and is patient with their quirks. Definitely will be trying to book her again in the future!”


About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and genuinely consider them family. I’m so dedicated to animals that I’ve chosen a pet-focused lifestyle over having children. As a husky mom and lifelong animal lover, I have hands-on experience with everything from energetic puppies to senior pets with special needs. I’m a certified pharmacy technician (CPhT), so I’m trained in medication safety and certified to administer vaccines—giving me an extra level of skill when caring for pets who need meds or special attention. I’m calm under pressure, detail-oriented, and treat every pet like they’re one of my own. I have very open availability and can easily fit pet care into my daily routine. As a husky mom, I’m accustomed to regular walks and consistent care, so whether it’s quick visits, daily check-ins, or overnight stays, I’m flexible and reliable. I’m attentive to your pet’s individual needs and always treat them with the same care and love I give my own. I prioritize safety and comfort above all else when caring for pets. In my home, I maintain a clean, secure, and calm environment where pets can feel relaxed and happy. I’m experienced with managing multiple pets, making sure each one gets individual attention while preventing stress or conflict. When caring for pets in their own home, I respect your space and routines, following all instructions closely to ensure consistency and comfort. I’m fully attentive, keep an eye on any health or behavior changes, and communicate promptly with you for peace of mind.

“Allie was great with my dog and two cats. She kept me informed when she was coming by as well as sending me photos of everyone every time she dropped in. She was really good with my very shy cats too. I will definitely use her again the next time I’m out of town!”


About: I have a wide array of experience with dogs from puppies of less than a year old to older aged dogs. I also have experience with all sorts of breeds (beagles, huskies, yorkies, etc). I have dog sat for family members and friends countless times and absolutely love them as if they were my own. I just started my summer break for college! I have two in-seat courses this summer on my campus every day of the week until 5 pm, so I will be available on weekends to look after your beloved pups! I can give your pet lots of love and attention. I can crate them easily if needed, and make sure they are getting plenty of walks. I will make sure any accidents are completely cleaned up, if there are any.

About: Hi there! I absolutely love animals and enjoy taking care of them. I’ve been watching taking care of animals since I was a kid and I just love it I absolutely love taking care of your fur babies! Their schedule is totally accustomed to your needs and wants as their owners if you create a schedule for them, that would be wonderful and allow me to take care of your fur babies as you would yourself I do services in Lexington and Winchester, I’m currently working full-time with my hours ranging from 6 AM to 4 PM 5 days out of the week! Hours may vary depending on work Hi there! I absolutely love animals and enjoy taking care of them. I’ve been watching taking care of animals since I was a kid and I just love it! I don’t offer boardings at the moment but I would love to housesit or do drop-in visits for you!

About: **if looking for pet sitting, make sure your furry friend is good with small dogs and cats** I, myself, am a small business owner. I work in photography and know my schedule well in advance. I have a 1.5 year old pug (behaved and potty trained). He no longer needs a crate but he has his own bedroom for if he gets too overstimulated and wants to play rough. He’s never hurt a fly though! I also have a cat who I’ve had for 7 years. He is social and talks more than any human I’ve met. He stays to himself and lounges on his cat tree or explores my fenced in yard. My yard is protected 100% around at approximately 10 ft high surrounding. I have grass to play in that is regularly maintained. Both of my pets are up to date on shots and flea, tick, and heart worm prevented monthly. I had rescued a pug before my current one who passed away unfortunately but I was on a 24 hour schedule with his medications and had hospice available at all times. My current dog gets eye medications every morning due to a genetic issue. So I have experience with medication. As well as IV medication/fluids. I grew up on a farm in Kentucky and took care of everything from cattle to goats to chickens to cats and dogs. I was going to become a dog foster but decided this route first with the possibility of still doing that in the future! I also took care of people with disabilities as an aid during my early 20’s (I’m 31) so no poo poo, pee pee, or throwing up bothers my stomach at all! My goal is to make your pet feel at as home as possible and as stimulated as they want to be to keep from being sad when away from their parent(s). Whenever I’ve had to leave my pets for personal family circumstances in Kentucky, it broke my heart that they’d miss me. I also have a furbo. I will be happy to provide you a link that you may access. You can see them and throw them treats (if they’re allowed them). I’m also lgbtq+ to be clear of my personal orientation/gender. I love animals more than people and for better or worse, that’s the truth :) I book my shoots with brands and talent way in advance. It makes it very easy to plan! I also will volunteer passing out clothes and food to those without shelter but I also plan that a month in advance and make my own schedule! I can crate your dog if needed. I just ask you bring your crate. As listed before, I have a playful pug and a lazy cat. I’m able to give medications and have a lot of experience with that!

About: I have experience with horses, dogs, cats, and even reptiles. I have specialized experience with large animals, disabled animals and elderly animals as well. I have a genuine passion for animals and I am committed to providing personalized care. I go beyond just feeding and walking. I take the time to understand each pet's unique needs and personalities. I will ensure your pet will feel loved, secure and at ease while you're away. I go to college at the University of Kentucky during the day but the longest day I have will end at 5 on Mondays and Wednesdays. I am a Vocal Performance major so I do have performances every so often but they are very easy to work around. I provide personalized care designed to meet the unique needs of your beloved companions. I can care for pets of all shapes and sizes including daily walking, feeding, medication administration, and playtime. I can spend the night and leave your home in the same way I arrived and leave your pet just as happy as when you left!

“Laura was great, I had her let out one of my fur kids and she was flexible when I needed to push something a little and sent pictures so got to see the kiddo some during the day. She also did the simple but important little things like making sure he had water which I appreciated.”


About: I simply love dogs!! They are my passion! I love English Bulldogs, French Bulldogs, Lhasa Apsos, Shihtzus, Shorkies, Greyhound’s, King Charles Caviler Spaniels. I know a lot about these breeds and they’re my speciality. Excited to love on other breeds too. This is my way to love on all these doggies since I cannot be a full time fur mommy to them all. My fur babies in my home are Khalessi (English Bulldog girl). My Lhasa Apso passed away August 2023. My Shorkie is still in the family, rehomed with an older family member for emotional support. I have been raised with dogs my whole life. One of my goals is to get some bulldog hugs! 😉 I’m also a MidWoof. I have independently and successfully delivered 3 litters of puppies in my home. Then whelped (nursed and raised) one litter til they were 4 weeks old of age then found their furever homes. I will love on your fur babies like they’re my own. It takes a special love to understand the high maintenance needs of bulldogs. I’m your girl for that! BOOK ME! Looking forward to being your Fur Baby’s Bonus Mom when they’re in my care. *I also have 10+ repeat clients not listed on this app. I currently work from home full time and I’m a mom to young kids. I could do drop in visits during the day. On weekends, when I’m in town, I could be fully available to dog sit in your home, my home or for check in visits. I have plenty of grassy court yard space where I live in a dog friendly neighborhood. I also have a fur baby to keep your dogs company if needed for service in my home. I have a dog room set up in my home. We also travel to dog parks when weather permits, if your dog needs activities, we will go on walks and even to our favorite dog park!

She was reliable, attentive, and clearly has a knack for understanding the unique needs of each pet. Our dog was happy, well-exercised, and relaxed when we returned, and our lizard’s enclosure was spotless, with his feeding and lighting schedule perfectly maintained. It’s such a relief to know your pets are in capable and caring hands. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your animals like their own Courtlin is the one to call!””
