About: I am currently a pre-vet student in college. I have worked with several animals most commonly being cats and dogs! I own 3 dogs and a cat of my own! I volunteer at 2 shelters regularly. I dog/cat sit very regularly for family friends! I have also interned at an animal hospital for an entire year! I am just excited to work with animals and get hours for vet school!! I will start working at the Cincinnati Zoo soon so I should have normal shifts. Once I start school I typically don’t do anything other than focus on school so I am very available to care for your animals! I am always just as caring about your place of living and will do my best to keep things clean as I stay there! Hopefully cleaner than when I started! I know animals can be messy and uncomfortable with new people but I will always put forth effort in a safe and clean environment for your fur ball!

About: I have hands-on experience caring for pets of all sizes and personalities, providing feeding, walking, playtime, and medication support. Coming from a family that owns a veterinary hospital, I’m comfortable recognizing pet needs, handling health concerns, and ensuring safe, attentive, and loving care. I treat every pet like my own and prioritize their comfort, routine, and happiness while their owners are away. I'm currently working part time, so have plenty of time available for your pups! I am home often, so they will have limited time alone. I provide attentive, reliable pet care in both my home and clients’ homes depending on their needs and comfort level. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any medications or special instructions. In a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their pet’s environment calm, clean, and familiar to reduce stress. I also send regular updates and photos so owners feel confident and connected while they are away. In my home, pets receive a safe, supervised, and loving environment with plenty of attention and exercise.

About: I grew up with cats, owned a 3-legged senior dog for many years, and have owned small rodents, and an indoor rabbit. I've been pet sitting for friends for almost a decade! Relax while you're away knowing your furry family member(s) are well taken care of. I'm currently on summer break (I work in education) so my availability is very open. I also work a summer job at Riverbend, but that's only a few nights a month. When I visit a clients home, I like to first make sure to take an inventory the pets' general wellness, and just love on them a little if possible before beginning any cleaning or feeding. Then I will start potty breaks or box cleaning, food and water changes, and any other necessary tasks. Then, more loves & scritches as needed :)

About: I’ve grown up around dogs. My family used to breed AKC Collie’s, owning 2 collies in total. Once I moved to college, I couldn’t have a collie where I lived so I got a Sheltie. He’s been with me ever since, though his “time” is approaching. (Passed away 4/6/2021) I’ve dog sat for several friends. I teach therefore summers off means a lot of availability for me to care for your dog! I’m no professional but I’m good with training and very patient with dogs. My sheltie was house broken in 6 months and knew all the basic commands. I have so much fun with dogs and have children to play with them too! Dogs must be good with other dogs and with children. I look forward to meeting your dog or dogs! I care a lot about animals! I do offer services year round, however, June through August are my peak times. I teach, therefore September through May are harder for me to care for other’s pets during the week. It can be done, but it is more difficult, as the pets will be cooped up from 7-3:30. I am always available on weekends! I offer discounts for repeat clients. Discount applied after booking. I am a teacher, therefore I primarily take on clients during the summer and on weekends. During the week is not out of question, just know they will be alone (must bring crate due to no supervision) from about 7 until 3/3:30 during the months school is in session. June through mid August, I am home except occasional errands and will be available for frequent potty breaks! I have a fenced in yard for your dog(s) to run around! I do have gentle giant (Great Dane) who loves to play. He can be intimidating, but he’s so sweet and just wants to play. Disclaimer- he drools a lot. I can keep your pet clean, though! I also have a Boston Terrier named Ellie. She is a very special story and although I picked her up as a 6 month old pup in 2012, we have been apart for 10 years and she’s back where she belongs. <3 If I come to your home for services, I am very professional and will be sure to follow your steps completely. I might sometimes need to bring my children with me, depending on the day.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs since and have continued to care for close friends and family’s pets for many years. My main goal is to always make any pet feel safe, happy, and loved. I have experience taking care of dogs, cats, fish, guinea pigs, rabbits, birds, and turtles. I’ll always have a soft spot for dogs, but I’m happy to care for any kind of pet from all walks of life! I’ve helped raise dogs from just being born - to sitting for some that were adopted or transitioned from previous owners that were no longer able to take care of them. No matter the situation, I’m always happy to adjust to their needs and take care of them as if they are my own!!! I work full time in a flexible hybrid position that allows me to provide care throughout the week. My work is local and only a 20-minute drive from Union, KY. While I work full time, I’m able to take care of your pet during my lunch breaks and can care for them in my home on the days I work remote. Otherwise, I’m available anytime after 5pm on weekdays and have all-day availability on weekends. If needed, I’m more than happy to stay overnight weekdays and/or weekends! I live in an apartment complex that is very pet friendly, there’s open sidewalks to walk around as well as a newly opened dog park and dog spa. I’d be happy to watch your pet all day while I work from home or can care for them after I get off work. Our apartment is very safe and situated in close proximity to various areas (10 minutes from Florence, 15-20 minutes from Hebron). I care for every pet I meet by understanding their needs and ensuring they’re always in a safe, well-maintained environment.

I have experience caring for pets with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs — including administering medications, working with reactive dogs, senior dogs, and puppies. I understand that every pet is unique, and I’m patient, attentive, and committed to creating a calm, positive environment where they feel secure and comfortable. Whether your dog loves long walks and playtime, or simply wants extra affection and attention, I tailor my care to fit their individual routine and personality. I’m confident reading body language and helping nervous or high-energy pets feel safe and understood. I pride myself on being dependable, communicative, and attentive. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates so you always know your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I also make it a priority to keep routines consistent to help reduce stress and make the experience as comfortable as possible for your pet. My goal is simple: to give your pet a loving, stress-free experience while giving you total peace of mind. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family member! I currently stay at home so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive, loving care for your pets. I’m available for boarding, daycare, walks, and drop-in visits throughout the week and weekends. Your pet will never feel rushed or overlooked — I make it a priority to give each animal personalized attention, exercise, playtime, and affection. I’m also happy to accommodate feeding schedules, medication routines, and special care instructions to help your pet feel comfortable and at home. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where animals can feel secure and loved while you’re away. I have a fenced yard for supervised outdoor play. I treat every pet like family and always follow each owner’s instructions closely, including feeding routines, exercise needs, medications, and preferred sleeping arrangements.
