“Kaitlyn was incredible! She went above and beyond to care for my dog and he absolutely loved her. I felt super comforted by the fact that he was with someone so caring while I was away”


About: I've taken care of all kinds of animals most of my life & they honestly make my life worth living. I can take really good care of your fur babies, if you give me the chance! As I was growing up, my grandparents had about 20 Chihuahuas (give or take) a couple pit bulls, gecko's, pet rats, pet snakes, guinea pigs and many more animals. I'm a genuine, honest, loving, caring, outgoing, fun and a very respectful person. You won't ever have to worry about your fur babies when I'm around or your belongings for house sittings. Im going to college in late summer/early fall 2025 to become a vet assistant & this is good experience I can offer for future jobs! Book with me today! As of right now, I'm available anytime to take care of your fur babies. Last minute, days, nights, overnights, I got you. Hope to meet you soon! There is plenty of yard for your dogs to run, lots of room inside for your cat to roam, & I've got a crate if needed. I will buy your fur babies special treats & toys.

About: I am a patient and attentive pet sitter! I have volunteered at the Animal Shelter for 15 years and believe that all pets deserve a safe and loving home! I currently work full-time 9-5pm but am willing to be there for your pets any time in the evening, nights or anytime on the weekends! I follow all guidelines given to me by pet owners to a T and make sure that I am adhering to their normal routine. It's important to me that your pets are safe and happy.

About: Ever since I was 16 (now 21) I’ve have walked or taken care of family friend’s dogs over night. I have always had a strong love for dogs and would like to mix my passion for helping people and taking care of pets! I am currently a part time student, as well as worker. From the end of May until the end of June, I will only be available on the weekends. However, from now until May 28th, and then after June 27th. I will be available Sunday, Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday. I ensure the pets get the exercise and walks they need in a day. Along with this, I make sure they are getting their food and water whenever it is necessary. If needing to go in a crate or another room, I am well-skilled in doing so.

“Jasmine was wonderful! She kept me in the loop with their quirky antics and constantly sent me pictures 🥰 I could relax knowing my babies were well taken care of! Thank you so much for loving them like your own!”


“Bailey was awesome with my babies! (A dog and two cats!) She was super easy to communicate with and fast to respond. Didn’t hesitate to come for a meet and greet. Immediately loved her!! Super warm and personable. Didn’t worry one bit while I was away for a week. Left my house neat, clean, tidy and sent lots of pics!”


“Emilia was extremely easy to communicate with and always did a great job updating us on the dogs while we were away. I can tell that she definitely made the dogs feel comfortable and loved on while we were away!”


“Dependable. He takes care of the pets as promised. He went above and beyond to fix my sensor in my garage. The only reason he wasn’t 5 stars was a miscommunication. He did not understand some of my instructions for the dog but is willing to make changes in the future. He took excellent care of the cats.”


“Jenna was great! She was super responsive and left my house clean! I would definitely book her again!”


“Abigail was great. She keep us fully informed with texts and pics. I highly recommend her!”


About: Dedicated and enthusiastic animal care, professional with proven abilities. Meeting animal needs with compassion and love for every pet.

About: Hi! My name is Becca! I'm from New Albany, IN and a 2020 graduate from UofL. I've owned and taken care of several pets in my lifetime, including my current sweet boy, Obi. Honestly, I like dogs more than I like people, haha. I enjoy going for walks and having dogs accompany me makes it even better. I'm not doing you a favor, you're doing me one! Pet care is my main income currently. I spend most of my days caring for my own or other’s pets. If I’m not out walking and checking on dogs, I’m probably at home watching Star Wars with my dog and waiting to fulfill another pet service. I live in a house with my two brothers, my dog Obi, and our two cats Mouschi and Mischa. We have a medium sized yard that is NOT fully fenced in. The neighborhood is very friendly to dog walking. I do not currently have the ability to crate any pets bigger than a small dog. When visiting pets’ homes, I enter calmly and call out the pet’s name. While there, I always treat client’s properties with respect and follow all instructions. When I leave, I make sure the pet has enough water, to lock up, and to dispose of any waste appropriately.

About: I've been pet sitting, house sitting,farm sitting, and more for neighbors and connections since I was 5yo. While no one wants anything to happen to their pets, I have the experience to handle any abnormal incident or emergency that may occur while owners are away. I am an experienced dog trainer and Former Veterinary Technician. Over a decade handling and training service dogs, specifically medical alert and response dogs, using positive reinforcement methods. I can't wait to me you and your pets!! At the moment, I have created a pet and farm start up, so I can make you and your animal(s) needs fit my schedule. Pets(and their parents) are my top priority, so I will do my best to work anything in my schedule around yours and give you and your animals the best, most responsible care. I care for pets in their owners home at the moment, though I'm working towards building the ideal training and boarding facility to better serve locals with their pets needs.

About: Caring for pets isn’t just a job for me—it’s a true passion. As a lifelong dog and cat lover, I find immense joy in providing pets with the attention, love, and care they deserve while their owners are away. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, cuddles, or ensuring they feel safe and comfortable in their home, I go above and beyond to make every pet feel like family. My strong work ethic means I am always punctual, responsible, and committed to maintaining the routines and preferences of both pets and their owners. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I take the time to provide personalized care, ensuring they are happy, healthy, and stress-free. With a deep love for animals and a reliable, compassionate approach, I take pride in being a trusted pet sitter that pet parents can count on. Whether it’s dogs, cats, or other furry friends, I treat every pet as if they were my own—because they deserve nothing less! I'm able to fit pet care into my routine just fine as it is my source of income. I love to have a set schedule. I ask a lot of questions about the pet's routine. I always want to be prepared no matter what. I want to make sure the owner understands I'm here to my job and I will listen to any questions or concerns they have for me.

“Evie did a super job with my furries! she sent lots of pictures and status updates. She even took them for a car ride for pup cups! She was flexible and dependable.”


“Lauren was an awesome sitter for our dog Ruby! She arrived on time at each of the times we set, followed all my instructions carefully, and most importantly, Ruby liked her (she warmed up to Lauren faster than to any dog sitter we have had!)! Would definitely use her again!”


“Rebecca was great with our dogs. they were happy and relaxed when we got home after our 3 day weekend at our sons wedding. She kept me stress free from worrying about our furbabies the whole weekend, just knowing she was there to walk them and make sure they had food and water and most importantly cuddles. We will definitely use her services again and would highly recommend Rebecca. Carlissa S”


“Jennifer watched our dog while I was at a week-long conference and she did an amazing job taking care of her as instructed and letting us know how she was doing throughout the week!”


About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was a kid—everything from dogs and cats to livestock, thanks to 10 years in 4-H. That hands-on experience taught me not just how to love animals, but how to read their behavior, keep them safe, and give them the structure they thrive on. I now have a pug named Otis (a total goofball), and I know firsthand how important it is to trust the person watching your pet. What sets me apart is my attention to detail, calm energy, and genuine love for every animal I care for—like they’re my own. I take the time to get to know each pet’s routine, quirks, and comfort zones to make sure they’re not just cared for, but actually happy while you’re away. I’m currently in college and working part-time, which gives me a lot of flexibility in my schedule. Pet care fits into my daily life really naturally—I love being active, I’m often out walking anyway, and spending time with animals is something that genuinely brings me joy. I’m looking to grow this into a consistent side hustle that doesn’t feel like work—because caring for pets never has. Whether it’s quick drop-ins, long walks, or overnight stays, I make time for each booking and treat every pet like they’re my own. This isn’t just extra income—it’s something I’m committed to doing well. I’ll be caring for your pet in their own home, where they feel safest and most comfortable. I always follow your instructions carefully—whether it’s feeding, meds, or just how they like to be tucked in. I treat every pet like family and make sure they’re calm, happy, and cared for while you’re away. You can count on me to keep your home clean and your pet in great hands.

4. Katelyn P.
“Katelyn has been an absolute lifesaver for us and our dog. Our pup requires seizure medication three times a day, which demands consistency, attention to detail, and genuine care — and Katelyn has delivered all of that and more. She not only ensured our dog got every dose on time, but also gave her the love and companionship she needed while we were away. Katelyn kept our home spotless, gave us regular updates, and treated our dog like family. We trust her completely and feel so lucky to have found someone so dependable and compassionate. I can’t recommend her highly enough!”

“Elexis watched my two cats while I was out of town for a week- she is an excellent pet sitter! She has a background in veterinary medicine, which broadens her ability to take care of your pets while away- she will be able to notice if anything if different/not normal with them, or administer medications if your pet is on them. She is extremely thoughtful and communicates very well. Always arriving to take care of the pets on time and will give them the love and attention you cannot while you're away! Highly recommend Elexis as your pet sitter/dog walker!”
