“Addie was so incredible watching our Vizsla for a few days while out of town. She consistently checked in and sent tons of photos & videos. Highly recommend if you are looking for someone who is kind & gentle with your furry family member.”

“Libby eased all my worries while I was away for a music festival in Chicago! My usually reserved cat let Libby give her pets! She even brushed my dog and followed my complicated steps to get my house key 😅 sorry! But thank you so much Libby!”

“We were very impressed with Ashleigh’s care for our two dogs. Our energetic sheepadoodle requires a lot of playtime, and Ashleigh dedicated nearly all her free moments to playing fetch with him. She also managed our house, watering the plants and handling the mail. Thanks to her, our vacation was fantastic. We’ll certainly reach out to her for our future trips.”

“Madison was amazing with our dogs and they took to her right away. She is very responsive and sends lots of sweet pics. She stayed at our house and everything is just how we left it. Would definitely have her dog sit again!”

About: I have been around animals large and small my whole life. I have had dogs, horses, and many other critters over the years. I do not have experience with cats. I work from home full-time. I have been around animals large and small my whole life. I love walking dogs, playing fetch, and giving pets too many snacks. My back yard has a 6 foot privacy fence, with two doors accessing the back yard. I like to walk dogs around Kirklevington Park or neighborhoods between Nicholasville and Tates Creek Roads.
“Maya did such an amazing job with Posey while staying in our home. We felt completely comfortable and confident in Maya! She texted updates/pictures of our girl which was greatly appreciated. We will being having her stay again very soon!! 😊”

About: I’ve cared for dogs since I was 8 years old. I’m comfortable with all breeds, including Pitbulls, Rottweilers, and German Shepherds. I was raised alongside a Pitbull Terrier mix, and later went on to adopt a full blooded Pitbull. I have an 11 year old Boxer mix at home, and she is in very good shape for her age. I would love to care for your dogs just as I care for mine! I feed my Boxer mix three times a day and give her medicine three times a day as well. If she has a little too much energy, I’ll play with her until she’s tired out. I let her outside as often as she needs, even if she just wants to lay out there (when the weather is nice, of course). When our Pitbull was still around, I also fed him three times a day and gave him medication twice a day. I care for my dog by paying attention to her body language and vocalizations. Often times, what she needs is something simple, like to go outside or she’s ready to eat, but on rare occasions she’ll act a little unusual and that’s when I take her into the vet’s office. I always make sure my dog is in the best health possible.
“Kristen did an excellent job for us with our precious pets (3) and our house. They got more attention and exercise than we can usually give them. I think we need her to train us to be better pet parents.”

“Derek was timely and professional and asked many questions in order to be better prepared for my dogs’ individual needs. He was very flexible when my plans suddenly changed and bonded very well with my pups. I would have him come back anytime!”
“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.”

About: I grew up with dogs. As an adult rescued a dog, worked w rescues for over 10 yrs. Fostered rescues, worked at animal shelter. My own dogs I show and personal service train for me. I work full time at night and have time days and evenings for your fur babies. Work anytime around both yours and my schedule too. Because I live in apartment, I have fenced park to play. Play with my dogs too. Can be crated for safety too while I work. I have cameras on my dogs at all times for safety.
“Ashtin and Jenison did an amazing job dog and cat sitting. They made sure to communicate and send photos the entire time to ensure we would have a great time on vacation and not worry about Millie and Pierogi. We will definitely be booking with them again!”

“We will always highly recommend Brooke. She does a wonderful job caring for our animals as her own. She stays in communication with us, giving consistent updates. Whenever we get home our animals are always happy and healthy.”

“Hannah took excellent care of Kylo and my home! Plenty of updates were sent and Kylo looked very comfortable with Hannah. Everything was how I left it and that was greatly appreciated!”

“Lauren was great! She took really good care of Kylo and accommodated all of his needs and was sure to send me plenty of updates as well! Lauren also took great care of my home which was very much appreciated!”

“Dina is one of the BEST!!! Overall great person and you could instantly tell that she has a genuine care for the animals that she is around and taking care of. As a pet owner herself, she gets how difficult it is to leave the fur babies and made us feel at ease leaving them in her care. Dina sent regular updates and pictures throughout the stay which we LOVED!!! She was extremely accommodating and went above and beyond! We would book Dina again in a heartbeat as long as her availability allows (I know she is popular and rightfully so)!!! She also took great care of our home while we were away and we returned to our home as clean or maybe even a little cleaner than when we left it. Dina is fantastic and we would definitely recommend her to anyone asking.”

“Mary is compassionate and kind with our boy Dalton who suffers from separation anxiety. She’s responsible, dependable & does a perfect job. We would recommend her to other.”

“Mariah was amazing with our dog and three cats! She was extremely attentive and detail oriented. She gave us frequent updates and was very communicative. Mariah put us at ease and we would absolutely have her back to watch our girls!”
