“Julie did a great job caring for our dogs! She sent lots of picture updates and was a quick communicator. Julie was able to be at our home with the dogs the majority of each day to keep them company. She gave them new toys and spent a lot of time with them playing outside!”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was a child. I have experience in puppy and senior care. I spent many years rescuing cats and volunteering in a cat shelter. I currently have two senior dogs and am comfortable in special care and administering medicine. I am home all day so I can offer constant care if needed. I work from home and make my own schedule, so I will be dedicated to caring for your fur baby. I enjoy working with animals. I can care for your animals in my home. I have a large fenced in backyard. I can also come to your home, drop in or walk your fur baby(s). My schedule is flexible.

About: I have been in the animal care business for the last 10 years. I personally have a very loved dog that I have cared for, for the last 11 years. On top of caring for my family’s pets over the last 16 years. I work full-time with several days working from home. I know how important an animals schedule is and would do everything to maintain that so the pet’s routine is not affected. My dog and kitten get everything the want and everything I think they need 🤣. Leaving your animal in the trust of me would guarantee that the things you want done for your family are completed. These can include walks, playing with certain toys, or the use of certain leashes or collars.

About: I have always been a animal person. I have fur babies myself Tucker (passed), Teddy, Dixie, Albert (passed), Clover, Pebbles, Gringer, and Cheeto. I have babysat my neighbors dogs over the years. Going over and giving Food, fresh water, changing puppy pads, giving treats, playing in the yard and plenty of toy time and outside time!

If you reach out to me I'll see what I can do and we can work something out. I have fenced in area they can play in, I also have a large cate if needed be.

About: My husband and I have both been caring for dogs in one capacity or another since we were kids. We both come from families with dogs, love them ourselves, and have provided regular childcare with dogs in the home. We recently crossed the bridge in to overnight pet care and have found our experience with dogs to be most welcoming and enjoyable. We are both excellent with understanding and respecting individual personalities of animals and will always make our greatest effort to connect authentically. We both tend to be the people in a room that animals enjoying being near. We are Cincinnati-based nomads who run our own online business. As such, we create our own schedule and can almost always find time for other obligations and needs. We respect the requirements and expectations of the individual home(s) we are in. We are extremely flexible and can fit in to whatever routine is comfortable and expected for the household.

About: Lifetime of experience, including dogs with behavioral challenges and special needs. I've volunteered at local shelters, and I've fostered rescue dogs in need. I have quite a bit of experience with dogs of every background! I am currently a college student and taking some time off of work to focus on my studies and would like to make some extra cash to help pay my loans/carry some weight at my family's house. My family has quite some land, and although not fenced, I am very active and always run with my own dog on a leash. I do 30 minutes to an hour walk twice a day. Potty breaks are very consistent.

“Jade was fantastic! She took this on at the last minute due to an emergency, but took incredible care of our dogs and cat. The house was immaculate when we got back home. Highly recommended!”

About: I grew up with cats and dogs. My first experiences with pet sitting were with family dogs as a teenager when my parents would go out of town. I have also been the go-to pet sitter for several families over the last 10 years. I don’t have any pets of my own, but I’m lucky to still get to love the animals in my life as a pet auntie! Some of my experience includes full-time dog-sitting for 2 senior, miniature dogs belonging to some family friends over 2 weeks. The older dog had some health issues that I attended to. I then became that family’s go-to dog sitter up until both dogs passed on. I currently am the go-to cat sitter for a few of my closest friends. I love when their cats come to greet me at the door and I know they are happy to see me when they are missing their parents. My goal is always to take the most appropriate safety measures for each individual pet and to give them the best care possible. I currently work a 9-5 from home, so there is a bit of flexibility there. I am free before and after work, as well as on the weekends. I will be sure to carefully follow instructions and communicate as much as you need about how your pet is doing. I can put your dog in a crate at night and I also have no problem with them being on my furniture. I will enforce the boundaries that you ask of me. If I am caring for a dog, they will go outside to potty depending on their needs, as much or as little as they need. As a standard, I would likely prompt them to go potty once every 4 hours. I would make sure that a cat’s litter box and the surrounding area stays clean. Water will be refilled two times daily or as needed. Feeding will be based on individual needs. Playtime is a must for animals who like to play! Same goes with cuddles!

About: Hi! I’m Jenna. I'm going into my sophomore year in college at Morehead State. I’ve cared for dogs of all kinds all of my life. I’m very patient, compassionate, and love dogs of all sizes. From small Shih Tzu’s and Yorkies to larger Hunting Dogs, Huskys, and even rambunctious Labs! I’m flexible with care guides and times because I understand all Dogs (AND cats!) have different needs. I was a cross country runner in high school so if your dog needs exercised, I’ll have them tuckered out! I am willing to walk your dog, drop by and play, and even give baths if needed. If you have more than one pet I’m more than happy and experienced in caring for multiple at a time. I can not WAIT to meet your adorable furry friend! I'm currently working part-time and will have plenty of time to care for your furry friend. Just schedule at least one day ahead, and I'll be there when you need me! For drop-by care and walking alike, I will be available to respond and be more than happy to send pictures of your fur-babies having fun!

“Barbra took care of our Halo so well. Very caring and attentive to his needs, and she went above and beyond! She was a great sitter that we will be using again soon :)”

About: I’ve been babysitting childrenfor the past 5 years, as well as taking care of pets overnight and never had an unhappy client. I’ve grown up with dogs all my life and have trained every pet in my home! I’m currently a pre-med psychology student at Belmont, so weekends and any evening after 3 I am available to come walk your pups! I am also available on the mornings of Tuesday and Thursday until 1:30 :) I have experience with crating puppies, as well as being able to move bigger, older dogs. I have tons of energy so walking will never be an issue! My car is dog friendly if needed, and I have endless patience with animals- your puppies will be treated like part of my family :)

“Great sitter. Everything was perfect and Major was happy.”

About: 1. DOGS (15+ years) 2. CATS (15+ years) 3. MEDICATIONS 4. CANINE BASIC OBEDIENCE TRAINING Your animal's wellbeing... be a working animal or a family pet... ALWAYS comes first... EVERY TIME... They are all treated with the same level of care and respect that I treat my own. When you're gone... they become a member of MY pack... and they are treated as such. First... don't be afraid to ask questions. I'm easy going, laid back, friendly and approachable. If you have a question... just ask... Second... Pet care IS my life... it's what I enjoy doing and it's what I'm good at. I try to circulate my "rounds" to make sure animals... especially dogs... are let out every 6-8 hours. Puppies and senior are visited more frequently. I specialize in KENNEL management... feel free to reach out for specific rates. I do also offer basic CANINE Grooming services: Bath - Small Breeds ($25) Medium Breeds ($30) Large Breeds ($35) Extra Large Breeds ($40) DeShed - Small Breeds ($25) Medium Breeds ($30) Large Breeds ($35) Extra Large Breeds ($40) Nails - All Breeds ($15) Full Basic Groom Package (Full DeShed Protocol, Bath, and Nails) - Small Breeds ($40) Medium Breeds ($50) Large Breeds ($60) Extra Large Breeds ($70) Small Breeds (<20 lbs) Medium Breeds (20-50 lbs) Large Breeds (50-80 lbs) Extra Large Breeds (>80 lbs) I provide all my own product and equipment... all I need is your tub or shower... preferably with a removable shower head. (Note: I leave very little footprint wherever I am, regardless of time, place, season, or circumstance... the utmost care will be taken in all areas of the home... Your home is treated with the same level of dignity, cleanliness, care, and respect as I do my own). Independent grooming appointments can be arranged with advanced notice. Any special instructions must be discussed in advance and may be subject to additional charges. I specialize in IN-HOME pet care. I feel like this is the best option because it's always hard on pets to be separated from their families and IN-HOME pet care will minimize and limit stressors on your pet... such as removal from their home... strange surroundings... unknown smells... animals they don't know. IN-HOME pet care allows your pet to stay in their own home... their own space... surrounded by what is familiar and comforting to them. I have just found that pets are happier this way. It gives them the much needed reassurance that their family is coming back for them.

About: I intern at an animal sanctuary where I provide full animal care to cats, dogs, foxes, birds, wolves, horses, a beaver, a bear, an elk, and much more. I have been there for over a year as well as taken care of many other animals for families over night and daily check ins. I am studying environmental science where I hope to work with animals so I have been gaining a lot of experience and knowledge with all kinds. I work another job currently as well as school so my check ins would be early morning and nights. My schedule varies from day to day so I’m willing to work it out as needed. I am available for over nights almost every night. I have watched animals with and without fences. I have gained a lot of experience in how to keep both me and the animals safe from my internship knowledge.

“The moment i opened my door to see Danielle in person, I knew she was exactly what my boys need when i am away from home. She is quick to smile and very calm. She is mature and intuitive beyond her years; she communicates very well and is responsive to messages usually within a couple minutes at the most. It is not an easy thing to hand over your house keys and leave your fur-babys with a stranger, but after talking to her for just a couple minutes, I felt like i had known her for years. I got home very late from my trip, and was pleasantly surprised that she had cleaned up the house. The next morning she texted me to make sure I got home ok :) I believe that I have found a true gem and my dogs and I are very blessed. I plan on hiring Danielle every other week when I travel for work or when I get the chance, to travel for fun!”

About: Woof! Im a responsible and trustworthy military veteran with a true passion for dogs.I have ample experience, having helped run a nonprofit dog rescue for many years. I’m kind, gentle, patient, and extremely comfortable around canines. Being an active and energetic kind of gal, your babies will have a blast during their time with me! Their paws will be in good hands. P.S ( I’ll treat your dog as if they were my own). I work from home, (free lance writing) and have plenty of time to host your dog. Being a homebody, I only step out for a few hours, for kickboxing and weight training. I have an extremely large yard with lots of room for: exercise, playtime, and exploring. And I’m well equipped with several doggy condos (crates and cages).

About: I’ve had pets growing up, mostly cats, but I had dogs and we trained them and took really good care of them. I took care of feeding them, my brother walked them and my mom cleaned. I’m currently working part-time and looking for a side hustle and some fun time with some amazing animals! I love animals and understand the struggles of everyday trying to make sure you get home to take care of them. With my dog, I feed him, my brother walks him and my mom cleans him. It is more of a team effort, although I can do all 3.
