About: I am a doctoral candidate in Biology at UofL, so you know I'm good at organization and scheduling! I think my time as a graduate student has sharpened my reasoning and communication skills as well. It's also increased my animal handling experience (mice)! I've had pets my whole life, mostly cats and dogs. My most recent pet is an elderly shi tzu with a surprising amount of energy! Apollo is a very skiddish cat, but we've definitely earned each others' trust. I can drop by to check on your pet, take them out for a walk (if weekday, must be before 10am or after 5pm, can be flexible), check on them periodically to feed them, or house sit (weekends only). I am a grad student, so I'm usually busy during weekdays 10am-5pm. Most of my work now is away from the bench, so I can be a little flexible about those hours Weekends are generally open! I love in an apartment that doesn't allow animals so I can't keep any here. I can however watch your furry friend at your house or take them on walks around the neighborhood!
“Allison is top notch! I am not easily trusting with my girls and she blew it out of the park. She has great communication during her visit(s) and sends plenty of photos, alongside notes.”
“Mary went above and beyond to care for our cat. Our cat is very skiddish around new people, but Mary took her time to be patient and let Callie warm up to her. We really appreciated her thoroughness and reliability. Followed all instructions to a tee and provided great daily updates. Highly recommend booking Mary!”
“Amber was awesome! She was meticulous and took great care of my kitties (and one of them is pretty high maintenance). She was on time and took care of everything that was requested. She even went above and beyond! 10/10 would book again.”
“Amanda is great! She always sends pictures and takes good care of our little guy! We are so glad to have someone we trust and someone our dog likes to check in on him when we are away!”
About: I've had cats and/or dogs all my life! I love all animals! I'm one who will get out of my car to help a turtle cross the road. I'm a retired teacher so I have plenty of time to care for your animals. This would be such an enjoyable way to spend my days! I can care for your dog(s) in my home or yours! I can care for your cat(s) in your home, as I already have 4. I'm willing to play, go on walks, car rides, or the park with your dog.
“Taylor felt like an angel to me this week! I have a dog with kidney stones that’s having trouble holding his bladder. She was so accommodating and my pups loved her! Highly recommend and will be using her again!”
“Jorie was amazing!! She came over prior to sitting so that she could meet my dogs. She was always timely and treated my dogs so well!! They are German shepherds and she seemed so comfortable with them even though they are gigantic and high energy. Will definitely be using Jorie’s services again in the future!”
“Caisey was both professional and friendly! She really took the time to get to know my cat and made sure to accommodate care to her level of comfort. She was reliable, communicative, and overall a really great pet sitter! It was our first time leaving our fur baby for longer than a couple of days - Caisey was very understanding and sent TONS of photos throughout the care experience. Definitely recommend her to anyone needing an invested pet sitter!”
“We’ve used Ashlea for our high energy puppy as well as our 2 cats and she did a great job! Even when the puppy has some excitement pee problems, no issues 😅 she’s very communicative, punctual, and even helped us out for extra house care duties because of an emergency. Completely dependable :)”
“Eleanor was fantastic! She sent us pictures from each drop-in and even picked up some pillow fluff that the dogs destroyed. Could not be happier with having her for our babies while we had to be gone.”
“This was my first time using Rover, and Lauran made the entire experience so easy and stress-free. She kept me updated daily with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. She truly went above and beyond when any issues came up. I would absolutely book with her again!”
“Courtney was awesome! She took great care of our cats, got our mail, brought in our recycling bin and even put an unexpected home chef delivery in our fridge! I would highly recommend her and plan to ask for her help the next time we travel!”
“This is my 5th or 6th time using Liz. Every time she sends good pictures and her communication is great! Fast responses, clear pictures and happy dogs every time. I don’t recommend giving short notices if you don’t have to but my job is last minute demanding and she’s been the best at responding last minute.”
“Bayley did a great job with all 3 of our dogs! She came over in the morning for breakfast; as we needed help because our reg dog-sitter's schedule changed. She jumped right in and was very flexible! Def will use Bayley again!!”
“I am so grateful to Brittney for watching my two cats while I was away for almost two weeks. Brittney gives my fur girls a lot of TLC. I can see such a big difference from Brittney’s care and some previous sitters because my cats are more emotionally secure when I get back and wanting to interact. Brittney is trustworthy and thorough in her communication. I can count on her to follow directions and she pays attention to details and when I have had to change instructions from a prior time I had to be away. Knowing Brittney was taking care of my cats allowed me to be much more confident and secure about being very far away and for a long time. Thank you thank you thank you Brittney! 💗🙏🏻😻😻🫶🏻”
