“Kaitlyn was amazing! She sat my girl for the whole week and she always kept me updated and took photos ! Her communication is the best ! Will definetly use her again !!”



“Thank you so much for taking care of our 3 dogsonce again while we went on vacation. I can’t stress enough how much of a relief we get to know that our dogs are being taking care of my someone so caring and responsive all in the comfort of their own home.”


“She was absolutely amazing with our three German shepherds! One of the first times we felt like we never had to worry about anything on a trip! She took care of everything and communicated with us often. We could not have asked for a better person! We will definitely be asking for her help again. Thank you so much!!!”


“We could not have asked for a better house/pet sitter than Melinda. She was very attentive, detailed, and caring of our “furry family “. It is obvious that she loves all animals and shows in her care for them. Penny, our 9 year old Lab had an emergency requiring vet care, and Melinda quickly and confidently handled the situation while keeping us informed. This issue also required additional time and attention and her and her husband upended their schedule to make sure Penny had the necessary care. We highly recommend Melinda for any pet care needs!”


“I contact her on short notice and she was able to be with my fur babies. I was a little nervous because the older one has sun downs and paces. She gave him his medicine and loved on both of them. Definitely going to use her again. She saved my trip.”


“Sandra exceeded our expectations by a mile! We have two 6 month old Golden Retriever puppies who are a lot of work and Sandra handled their care with ease! We received morning and evening updates with plenty of pictures to relieve our anxiety from leaving them. One of our puppies needed two daily medications and Sandra was very prompt with their med schedule. She provided daily walks and was always there to let them outside to run around and play and give them plenty of love. When we returned from our trip we had daily notes on what the boys were up to, any new behaviors or just new funny quirks they developed. We also were able to see the spreadsheets she brought verifying the walks and meals they were given. Our house was left very clean and tidy and so were the puppies! It’s not even a question, we will most definitely be using Sandra in the future!!”


“10/10 will recommend Anamaria any day of the week!! She is amazing. Our Stella was so happy and had the best time with her. Happy and healthy were our main priorities and she exceeded them with her care. Constant updates, great communication, and flexible! She also took care of our crested gecko and his needs. From the first meet and greet when Ana asked detailed and important questions, we knew she’d be a great fit and caring sitter. We are happy to know we have a reliable and go-to person for all future pet needs!”


“Owen was fantastic! He communicated well and took such great care of our sweet pup. He also took immaculate care of the house. We already have him booked for another trip. We are grateful to have found him - our pup loves him!”


“Nicole was great! She was timely in her responses and kept us updated throughout our trip. Will definitely use her again! Our dog was very happy and well-cared for when we got home.”


About: Hello! I am a positive-reinforcement based dog trainer and lover who has experience with a plethora of dog breeds, ages, temperaments, and medical issues. I have an extensive history with caring for and training dogs, with a specialization in the training of fearful or reactive dogs. I believe that the responsibility of caring for another’s pet goes beyond the necessities: it is ensuring that the dog is comforted during an often difficult time, and the owner is reassured that their pet is in the best hands. Further, it is necessary to be sure that the animals physical, emotional, and needs are fully met. I hope to establish a relationship with the pet(s) and their owners. I genuinely care about the wellbeing of animals and make a great effort to ensure that the pet is comfortable and well taken care of. I am currently working in other animal care positions and am able to adjust my schedule to your pet’s care needs. My schedule is relatively flexible, and can be adjusted. I have a sweet Shetland Sheepdog who lives with me, as well as cats. I am very cautious about keeping doors (and inside gates) firmly closed to ensure safety,

About: With 10+ years of experience, I provide dependable, compassionate care for dogs, cats, reptiles, and more, treating every pet like my own and making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Every morning starts with checking on my reptiles’ temps and feeding schedule, followed by caring for my two cats, cleaning, feeding, and spending quality time with them. I give each pet personalized attention, feeding on schedule, fresh water, clean spaces, playtime, and affection. I follow all instructions carefully to match their routine and comfort.

About: I have experience with dogs of all kinds. One thing that separates myself from other dog walkers is that I treat each pet how I would treat my own and I treat my own like my kids. My goal is to provide the same care for your dogs as I expect for mine. Pet care is a major part of my daily and weekly routine since I own a dog walking/sitting business. I am almost always available to meet my clients needs for their furry companions. The only times when I am not available is when I am coaching basketball. Unfortunately, I do not care for pets at my home. However, when caring for pets in your home I will keep them on the exact routine as they are accustomed to to make them as comfortable as possible.

About: I have never pet sat before however I have owned and taken care of dogs, cats, fish, birds, and a rabbit I love animals and can’t wait to meet yours. I am 18 years old and a senior at New Albany High School. I work at Starbucks inside target however am looking to pick something up on the side I am very flexible and willing to work with you. As a young lady I am very safe meaning locking doors behind me and carrying pepper spray. I will make sure to protect the house and pets while sitting or going on a walk.

About: I've had dogs my whole life from small yorkies to big farm dogs. I also, have experience taking care of ailing 13 and 14 year old dogs that need special care. I love any and all dogs!! I'm currently talking summer online college courses, so I have very flexible hours and can work weekdays and weekends. I can do early mornings or evenings. I will treat your pets and home as if they were my own, with care and love. I can also, send you updates about your dog or dogs.
