Tara is wonderful! She has been weekly walking our giant goof of a dog, Jolene, for almost an entire year. Tara provides great updates, photos and always gives Jolene extra belly rubs.

About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was ten years old! Between looking after my own dog and my family's, I have the experience and love to make sure your furry friend gets the attention they deserve! I'm a middle school teacher in the Louisville area, so weekends are the best for house sitting and longer watching periods! During the weekday afternoons, I would love to help check in, play with your pup, or give them a nice long walk! Communication is the most important thing. I will always follow the wishes of the owner to make sure your pets are cared for in the most consistent way possible. Your boundaries are mine, and I always act in the best interest of you and your pets!

Maggie is the best person to care for your animals! She is dependable, flexible, and so good with them- I love that she spent dogsitting time playing “beauty shop” to groom my girls up a little. Would 10/10 recommend her to anyone looking for a great pet caretaker 😊😊

I have an old and sensitive GSD that I am normally very protective over; I had to leave her for a week and the whole time I felt my dog was completely safe and attended to in Kathryn's hands. She provided meaningful updates and expressed genuine affection, support, and care for my animal. I would definitely have her care for my dog again.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have been pet sitting dogs and cats since my early teens. I have experience caring for pets of all ages and medical needs, including diabetic dogs requiring insulin injections, blind dogs, pets with seizures, and dogs with mobility and potty issues. I’m comfortable administering medications and providing extra patience and attention to senior pets or those needing specialized care. I’ve also fostered dogs and cats through my local shelter, caring for everything from puppies and kittens learning the ropes to senior dogs needing diapers and additional support. My experience fostering has helped me become adaptable, calm, and attentive to each pet’s unique personality and needs. I currently have two dogs of my own, Murphy and Lucky, they are my whole heart and I love every pet I care as if they were part of my family. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I work overnight shifts from 9pm–5am, Monday-Friday, which gives me a flexible daytime schedule. I’m able to adjust my sleep schedule as needed, so I have plenty of availability for walks, drop-ins, feeding schedules, medication administration, playtime, and overnight care. In my home, I do my best to create a safe and comfortable environment where pets can feel relaxed, cared for, and entertained. I have a fully fenced-in yard that backs up to a park, which gives dogs plenty of space for supervised outdoor time, play, and exercise. I also have a separate guest room available if an owner prefers their pet to have their own quiet space during their stay with us. I understand that every pet has different routines and comfort levels, so I try to keep their schedule as consistent as possible with feeding times, potty breaks, walks, medications, playtime, and rest. I’m happy to accommodate senior pets, puppies, and pets with medical or mobility needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure they feel comfortable in their familiar environment while keeping up with their normal routine and giving them plenty of attention, affection, and companionship. I always treat both pets and homes with respect and care, and I know how important communication and reliability are while you’re away from your pets. I love to send parent’s updates on their babies and we can work out details on how frequently you would like pictures sent!

About: I have an excellent, warm, and inviting home in which I would happily watch your dog while you travel. I'm a writer and vo artist who mostly works from home, so your dog won't be lonely; that's for sure. In addition, I take an hour long walk in Audubon Park every single day, so if your dog is up to it, he/she will get plenty of healthy exercise. And for those that aren't able to make the big walk, we do smaller little walks in the neighborhood plenty of times per day. I love dogs, and would care for yours as if it were my own, so please don't hesitate if you have any specific questions for me, and thank you for giving me a look! ~Matt *Please note that I have relocated to Kentucky from California so please enjoy these pics from my previous home, filled with my furry friends. I mostly work from home, so your pet will not be lonely. Spending a lot of time at home, I really enjoy the company of dogs. I go on walks throughout the day and try to keep a calm environment filled with routine. I follow what the pet needs at the direction of the owner.

About: I have years of experience taking care of both dogs and cats, and with housesitting as well. I am able to help support animals who have health concerns, special needs, and anxiety. I can administer medication and give shots as well. I have a senior kitty and an adult age cat myself, so plenty of experience with senior care. And I have experience with dogs of all ages, including puppies and seniors. I am happy to work with any owner to accommodate their pets needs and make them feel comfortable while they are away. I am have nearly full availability the next couple of months, so please reach out and I should be able to accommodate any time frame. I will abide by all house and property rules for the animals safety which includes leashes, fences, walking paths. I am happy to work with owners on what they are most comfortable with. I do not bring pets inside my home as my cats are usually not friendly to that! But I am always happy to stay at others homes.

About: I have had fur babies all my life. From puppy stage to senior care. They are truly part of the family. I look forwards to loving on yours I have the please of working from home, fitting your pet into my daily routine would be identical to how I am able to send time with my own. I have a huge fenced in yard. I have one fur baby he is a bernedoodle who is turning two at the end of this year. He gets along great with other dogs and enjoys the company. So I am able to provide each pet with the love they need I have very limited space on how many dogs I will keep at once. If your pet enjoys walks, we will go on walks, enjoy fetch in the backyard, we will play fetch in the back yard. Your pet is part of my family once you guys enter my home. I do have children who love to run around with animals also.

About: Taking care of pets is not just a responsibility—it’s my passion! Whether it’s long walks, fun playtime, or lots of cuddles, I make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and cared for. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! I have a hybrid work schedule that lets me work remotely half the week. On the days I go into the office, typically Monday through Wednesday, I can easily return home during lunch since my office is just a few minutes away. I have a cozy home with a fenced-in patio and it’s located just minutes away from several beautiful parks. At home, I share my space with my sweet cat, Nagini. If needed, I’m happy to keep your pet comfortably separate to ensure everyone feels safe and at ease.

About: Hi! I’m Raven, a reliable, caring pet sitter who treats every dog and cat like family. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously every single visit. In my care, your pet will receive: 🐾 Personalized attention based on their personality and routine 🐾 Safe, supervised playtime and regular potty breaks (for dogs) 🐾 Calm, stress-free care for cats with respect for their space 🐾 Walks, enrichment, and gentle interaction 🐾 Plenty of love, comfort, and rest time 🐾 Frequent photo and message updates for peace of mind I maintain a clean, comfortable, and pet-safe environment where animals can relax and feel at home. Whether your dog loves to play and explore or your cat prefers quiet companionship, I tailor my care to meet their individual needs. I’m detail-oriented, communicative, and committed to providing dependable, high-quality care. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being always come first. I’d love to meet you and your furry family member and become your trusted sitter! Pet care is a central part of my daily routine, not something I squeeze in between other commitments. I structure my schedule around the pets I’m caring for to make sure each dog receives consistent attention, exercise, and companionship. On a typical day, dogs in my care receive: 🐾 Regular potty breaks and outdoor time 🐾 Morning and evening walks (as needed) 🐾 Supervised playtime and enrichment 🐾 Feeding based on their normal routine 🐾 Quiet rest time and comfort breaks 🐾 One-on-one attention throughout the day I plan my days to be flexible so I can adjust to each dog’s needs, whether that means extra walks, medication schedules, senior care, or additional cuddle time. I keep my calendar updated and limit the number of pets I take at one time so every dog receives safe, reliable, and personalized care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in yours, I follow consistent routines and safety practices to ensure a secure, stress-free experience. In my home, I provide: 🐾 A clean, pet-safe environment with secure doors and gates 🐾 Supervised indoor and outdoor time 🐾 Separate spaces when needed for comfort or feeding 🐾 Regular sanitation of bowls, bedding, and play areas 🐾 Careful monitoring of behavior, appetite, and health In clients’ homes, I: 🐾 Follow all instructions and routines exactly as provided 🐾 Respect your home and privacy 🐾 Double-check doors, gates, and locks 🐾 Keep detailed visit notes and updates For all services, I: 🐾 Use leashes and safety equipment properly 🐾 Never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations 🐾 Administer medications as directed 🐾 Watch closely for signs of stress or illness 🐾 Communicate immediately if any concerns arise Building trust with both pets and their owners is extremely important to me. I treat every home and every animal with the same care and respect I would expect for my own family.

Eleanor did such an amazing job with my husky She was very punctual and handled Freya like a pro! It’s always a frustration of mine anytime I leave town and come back to a Wiley dog who has been allowed to pull on the leash and jump on people. Eleanor is the first dog walker I’ve had that has expertly kept Freya in line and I’m so appreciative! I will definitely be rebooking in the future.thanks so much!
