I have worked with companion animals, livestock- including horses, and some exotics. After teaching and being a program director of a vet tech program I decided I wanted a change in pace, there is more to life than punching a clock. My passion for animals and caregiving wasn't being met in the for-profit world of education. My love of animals goes back to childhood and has been a constant in my life for as long as I can remember. If you have a pet that needs special attention like medications, injections, or is on a restricted diet I am more than capable of caring for your pet. I am home most of the time. I will treat your pet like family while in my care and you can rest easy knowing your fur baby is in great care. They will be on vacation while you are too!

It's important for animals to stay on their routine and be loved by a trusted person while their owners are away. I can assure the owner they are taking care of properly. Each pet in an individual and must be treated as such.

Information Renee H. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any special needs, or is afraid of thunderstorms (important for spring and summer months), or anything else that is unique to your pet. The more information that I have the better.

A typical day

Depending on the pet and it's age cuddling on the coach getting pets might be most comfortable, if your pet is high energy we can go for a long walk, play in the yard if owner has one for the pet. There is a dog park in Bardstown, for an additional fee I can take your dog for playtime at the dog park.

It’s a shame that this rating system only goes up to 5 stars. I would give Renee 1000000 stars if I could. To say she goes above and beyond for your pet is an understatement. She took care of our dog for 5 days and from the first moment I met her and her dogs all of my worries about leaving my dog with a stranger went away. She took the time when we first arrived to let us watch Josie meet her dogs and took us around her property to let her get comfortable. And on top of the excellent care she took of my baby, she also BROUGHT HER TO OUR WEDDING AND PICKED HER UP AFTER THE CEREMONY JUST SO I COULD LET OUR DOG BE THE RING BEARER. 10/10 would hire her again. It’s a shame we aren’t from the area or she would be our regular dog sitter. If you are looking for quality care for your pup, look no further.

Renee is wonderful. She is easy to communicate with, quick to respond, professional, and cares for our animals like they were hers. She makes sure she sees all our pets and send us pictures of all of them. She is our go to every time we need someone to check on our cats. 100% recommend.

Always quick and easy to communicate with. Will always go to her first when I need my cats taken care of!

Renee was a wonderful dog sitter. On short notice she took a booking and communicated with me promptly. Her personal pets are amazing with new animals and it was mere hours before my two dogs were comfortable enough with her and her husband to cuddle them closely. There's a great energy in the house and she was extremely helpful during the "get to know you" process dogs go through with each other. Regular updates, even when I went radio silent, and she had a slew of updates on how they behaved (in specifics when I asked) during pickup. Cannot recommend her enough and we'll be coming back the next time I use a sitter. Thank you!
