Jordan was fantastic! She communicated everything going on, sent pictures each day, and even cleaned up the house perfectly which was a very pleasant surprise to arrive home too! We can’t thank her enough for just how professional she was through the experience. We will definitely be using her again.

Misty was great and Luna was safe and secure, happy and healthy when I arrived home. Finding a dog sitter on Memorial Day seemed like an impossible request so imagine my surprise when she accepted, arrived and did a great job. I highly recommend her!

About: We work from home full-time, which means your pup will get lots of supervision, attention, companionship, and cuddles throughout the day instead of being left alone for long periods. Dogs staying with us typically get up to two walks a day, usually 1–2.5 mile walks at nearby trails. If your pup enjoys walks and adventures, they’re welcome to join! We also make sure dogs have plenty of supervised playtime, enrichment, rest, and individualized attention depending on their personality and energy level. We genuinely love pets and try to make them feel like part of the family while they’re here. Whether your dog is playful, cuddly, shy, energetic, or prefers a calmer environment, we do our best to adapt to their needs and routine. We're also happy to provide regular updates, photos, and videos so you can feel comfortable while you’re away. We know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and we aim to create a safe, loving environment where both you and your pup feel comfortable. I have a flexible schedule to give your pets the love and attention they deserve! I take my dog on walks twice a day for 1-2.5 miles in the park and typically spend the rest of the day at home, treating your babies like my own. I have a fenced yard and live walking distance from a park with wooded trails. I have a friendly pup in my home who loves having friends to play with. I will care for your pets like my own!

Eric was great! He took great care of our snuggly beagle and our home. Chester was at ease with Eric and we could tell that he got all the treats and affection to which he is deservedly entitled. We will definitely ask Eric to sit for us again on our next trip.

Kat was amazing! She’s not only just a cool person, but our dogs took to her immediately. We appreciate the communication while we were away - including pics of the pups lounging the day away. I will definitely book her again in the future.

The best babysitter for my pups! They absolutely loved her. This was my first time ever leaving them or using this app and she made it so easy and gave me peace of mind. She made sure to be extra cautious with my beagles outside so they didn’t escape. You'll get constant updates and cute pics of your pups. You won’t find a better baby sitter!

About: After experiencing the tragic loss of my own cats due to a negligent pet sitter, I became deeply committed to providing the highest level of care for all animals. That experience taught me how vital it is to entrust pets to someone who not only understands their needs but treats them like family. I specialize in senior pet care, offering compassionate support for aging pets, including administering medications, managing health conditions, and providing gentle, tailored exercise routines. I also have experience training puppies, helping them develop good behaviors early on and ensuring they have the structure they need to thrive. My focus is always on building trust and creating a safe, loving environment for your pets, so they feel comfortable and secure when you're away. Above all, I aim to offer peace of mind to pet owners, knowing their animals are in caring, responsible hands. Available almost anytime in Lexington and surrounding areas contact in advance is recommended but we can take last-minute calls depending on the situation and what not. Also I work with you budget! I have a park near me and I do take my own dog to the dog park every chance I get via Lyft and plenty of toys for your fur babies!

About: I’m 21 years old and have grown up around animals my entire life. I have hands on experience caring for a wide range of pets, especially dogs of all sizes and breeds. I’ve had dogs my whole life from Chihuahuas and Dachshunds to Pit Bulls and Belgian Shepherds so I’m comfortable with everything from small, high energy pups to large, working breeds. I still care for my childhood Dachshund and currently have a Belgian Shepherd, which has given me strong experience with daily routines, training basics, exercise needs, and attentive care. I treat every pet as if they were my own and focus on keeping them safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. Pet care is my full time job, so it’s fully built into my daily and weekly routine. This allows me to dedicate my time and attention to each pet’s individual needs, whether that’s walks, feedings, playtime, medications, or just extra companionship. Since this is what I do every day, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to provide reliable, consistent care and give your pets the attention they deserve. I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort in both my home and my clients’ homes. I carefully follow all instructions, maintain clean environments, secure doors and gates, and closely monitor pets to ensure they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for at all times.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and caring for pets is second nature to me. Over the years I’ve cared for dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, a rabbit, turtles, snakes, and fish. I currently have two dogs, a cat, and a snake that I’ve raised and cared for daily—my snake has been with me for 15 years, my dogs for about 8 years, and my cat for the past year. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets, and I bring patience, attentiveness, and genuine love to every animal I meet. Whether it’s energetic puppies, senior pets, or more unique companions, always providing patient, reliable, and loving care. I’m currently between jobs, which gives me lots of flexibility and free time to dedicate to caring for pets. I’m available most weekdays and weekends, and I can adjust easily to your schedule. This allows me to give your pets plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship without feeling rushed. I care for pets in their own home so they can stay comfortable in a familiar environment. I always follow your instructions carefully, whether it’s feeding, walking, administering medication, or just giving extra love and playtime. Safety and trust are my top priorities, and I’ll treat your pets with the same patience and care I give my own.

Stephanie watched our dog and three cats over Christmas and did an excellent job! She was very attentive to our pets needs and communicated well with us all week. She went above and beyond, even deep cleaning the pets’ water dishes. We could tell she really prioritized our girls when she was here. She left the house spotless! We will definitely consider booking her in the future!

About: With over 10 years of hands-on experience in dog sitting and walking, I bring a deep love for animals and a strong sense of responsibility to every pet I care for. I’ve been around animals my entire life—dogs, cats, and more—and currently have a sweet dog of my own who keeps me active and inspired every day. I’m currently studying to become a Veterinary Technician, and I’ve also volunteered at two local veterinary clinics here in Kentucky, gaining valuable experience in animal care and behavior. My background not only ensures your pet is in loving hands, but also that I can handle a variety of situations calmly and professionally. In addition to pet care, I have 2 years of experience babysitting children, which has helped me build strong communication skills and a reliable, nurturing presence that both pets and people can trust. Whether your dog needs a fun walk, one-on-one attention, or a safe place to stay, I’m here to provide compassionate, dependable care you can count on. i am a stay at home college student who does side jobs during the week to tend to all of my animals. there is nothing that makes me happier than caring for any fury little babies. i’m free just about any day. :) I live in a very safe and secure neighborhood. i have a fenced in yard. As well as a wooden fenced in cage area outside that is about 900 square feet for zoomies and training. There is no length i won’t go to keep your animals safe and happy:)
