“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!”


“Catherine was amazing with my two elderly cats! I have a lot of anxiety about leaving them alone, especially since one of them needs an injected medication with his meals.

About: I have 10 years of veterinary experience and have had dogs my whole life. I have had dogs with special needs such as diabetes, vision/hearing loss and geriatric needs. I have cared for animals of all sizes and temperaments. I look forward to meeting you and your fur children! I recently moved to Kentucky and am not working yet, but looking to fill my time with dog walking and pet sitting. I am available week days and weekends! I have a 1 year old Italian greyhound mix and 14 year old lab mix. I can’t currently board in my house, but can care for pets in their own home. I am available for drop in visits and walks. My 1 year old puppy is very friendly and would love supervised playtime with other friendly dogs if fitting.

“Kim did an amazing job. I really appreciated that she visited my cats at the agreed upon time and sent me informative Rover Reports every time! The cats seemed to take well to her and there was little conflict. I have no criticisms, she was really great. I would definitely use her services again in the future!”

“Kara was wonderful! We had never left our cats alone for more than 2 days and were anxious about just having drop in visits for 4-5 days. She was communicative, thorough, and great with the cats. Even our shy cat came out of her shell for play time during visits which amazed me. I will absolutely be using her services again and would recommend her highly!”

About: I have over 19 years of experience. I can help with Pet Walking and Pet Sitting. Over the years I have cared for (and loved .. and certainly have been loved by!) many dogs and cats (and other pets).. I am looking forward to meeting you and your pets. Thank you .. I am excited to care for your pet (s) next! I love and treat your pets as though they are my own. I always like to spend as much time as possible your pets, whether the pets parents are working during the day, or the family is on vacation. Whether you prefer your dog (s) walked and/or playing in the yard-- or just a potty break and quality indoors playtime/hangout time... I'm excited to help; I am also available for overnight visits, if that's something you're interested in for your pets. I enjoy it, and it really bonds me with them (obviously the more time spent with them, the more comfortable the pets are with you). I love cats, too! Fish, you name it. I am new to the area, and looking to continue doing what I've done for 20 + years: My time is very flexible (*especially now just getting started) and prices are flexible. I like to spend as much time as possible with the pets! I am certainly willing to spend a lot of time with them. Excited to become fast friends with your pets! I do not live alone-- so I have always cared for pets in the client's home (or other friends and family) ... I will do whatever the client wants, and stick as close to the routine as possible; Dog walks, and/or playing with dogs inside the house (and in yards), and caring for cats inside the home are perfect. I am more than happy to adapt and do what pet parents ask, and love them as much as possible until they are back in your care.

“Brooke was an incredibly friendly, responsible and responsive sitter! She made sure my cat Miller was well taken care of and relaxed as possible while getting used to a stranger. When Miller was hesitant to take medication, Brooke helped troubleshoot different delivery methods to make sure he got what he needed. And it worked! My cat was happy and chill when we got home which is a sign of a great visit and sitter. We’d absolutely use Brooke’s services again!”


“Gianna was fantastic at taking care of our Nugget! She provided detailed descriptions of their day together and always took the cutest pictures to update us on his day. Would recommend !”


“I came home to happy cats. I received great reports and even video. Hayden didn’t mind doing some extra things like opening and closing blinds. Will ask her to visit them again.”
