Pet care experience

Animal lover seeks fun furry friend

I have pet sat for 20+ years for co-workers, family and friends. I had a large clientele down in Florida where I previously lived. I moved to Eastern KY recently and would love to continue pet sitting. I enjoy being around animals. They make me so happy. I also have past experience sitting for animals with medical conditions that required administering meds during the day which included eye and ear drops and giving pills when needed. I am used to walking dogs, and playing with dogs to get them exercise when needed. I have house and pet sat at clients homes as well as my own home depending on what is needed. I have watched dogs for various lengths of time as well , depending on the needs of clients from daily care up to watching pets for time frames of a week or so due to a work related trip or vacation.

I cannot recommend Dina enough! After having some bad experiences with pet sitters in the past, I was extremely nervous about leaving my dog. On top of that, I was leaving to take the Bar Exam, so I absolutely did not need any extra stress or worries while I was away. Dina was truly amazing from start to finish. She sent frequent updates, tons of photos, and kept me informed the entire time. Every message reassured me that my dog was happy, safe, and being so well cared for. It made such a difference and allowed me to focus on my exam instead of worrying about my pup. It’s obvious Dina genuinely loves animals and treats them like they’re her own. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog, and I couldn’t be more grateful. If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, communicative, and truly goes above and beyond, DINA IS THE ONE! I will absolutely be booking with her again!

I am a teacher so I am normally available around 3:30 in the afternoon. I also have summers off so I have more free time and flexibility during that time frame.

Just let me know of any special requests you might have or any special needs that are required for your loved one. I want to make all of my little visitors ( or homes I may be visiting ) feel well taken care of.
