“Our two babies love going there! We love that she keeps us updated and sends us pictures while we’re gone. We know that they are being loved on at Aunt Lynana! 🥰”


“We absolutely loved out experience with Ryan and Jennifer as boarders for our dog Cooper. They were kind, welcoming and put our minds at ease immediately about leaving out baby for the night. They sent pictures and updates which meant a great deal and helped us to relax and enjoy our time away. We highly recommend them!”


“We left our two dogs with Amber over Christmas and things went just great! Its easy to miss your furbabies over the holidays, but Amber sent so many pupdates and pics that we felt really good about leaving them with her. Her love for animals really shows and she made the dogs feel at home. One of our dogs is a little apprehensive before he gives his trust and by the end of the weekend, Amber and he were besties! Aside from how great she is with the dogs, she also is a very good communicator and flexible with drop on/offs. We would definitely book with her again.”


“I would Recommend Jordan to anyone needing animal sitting. She was very informative and kept us up to date everyday on how the animals were doing. She sent photos of the animals as well to which my animals looked very happy. Jordan has a very clean and safe home for your pets. My animals came home happy! We will be using her in the future for animal sitting!”


About: I have 3+ years of professional pet care experience and currently work at an animal rescue! I have training in administering medication, bathing, nail trims, and teeth cleaning. I adore all pets and have personally owned dogs, fish, snakes, lizards, frogs, hamsters, gerbils, guinea pigs, rabbits, and ducks! I have also taken care of cats, parrots/parakeets, and sheep. I am available 7 out of 7 days of the week! I get how chaotic life can be! That’s why my scheduling times are flexible to meet your and your pets needs. Safety is the top priority! My services and activities will be customized to the outdoor conditions (too hot or too cold = shorter walks outside and more indoor play time). As a pet parent, my house stays pet proof: no loose wires, batteries, sharp objects, etc. I have a 6ft privacy fence and use no chemicals in the yard. I am certified in animal first aid and CPR.

“Oh my gosh! Rudy had the best time! Like a vacation for him, with so much love and attention! Went joy riding in a golf cart, shopping at Rural King, walks, and lots of cuddles!! Thank you Dana and JR!!!”


“Shana is a one in a kind Dogsitter. She is kind, patient and an amazing groomer that takes care of your dogs as family. We have a dog that she always gets sick from being nervous with other caregivers but this issue was never the case at Shana’s home. Her fenced patio and spacious home was a super retreat for our doggies. Our pups came back home like after being a spa day. Thank you Shana for all you do. We hope to have the honor to be part of your your pack in the future.”


About: I've had a dog since I was 2 years old and that's a long time! I am a retired RN who is wanting a little more relaxing job. My husband is a retired Air Force veteran who ran the Military dog school. Although I will add all of my pets were pretty spoiled but very loved. I have a 13 year old Chihuahua named KT. I boarded a friend's small dog for a month and KT and my 15 year old cat Frank did fine with her. I'm am so looking forward to loving your pet ! I do travel several times a year . I do some home health visits but not obligated so I can always work around your pets needs. I live in a fairly large condo with a fenced in patio off of a sunroof. I normally leash my dog in front yard for quick potties and walk her 1 or 2 times a day. I have a medium size wired crate that can fit a small dog bed food and water for your pets safety if needed. I know accidents happen once in awhile especially in New surroundings but would prefer dog be housebroken.

“Nathalie did a terrific job with our fur baby Zoey. She sent us a few pictures then everyday sent us a text on how she was doing. She even came and pick her up and then dropped her back off when we got home. We will use her again.”


“My little dog loved Katie and her family! They took excellent care of him during the Kentucky Fried Pickin event at the Holiday Inn in Owensboro. We feel very happy now that we have such a high quality place to board our dog during music events in Owensboro. We will definitely be booking with this wonderful family again!”


About: Animals bring joy and purpose to my life! I adore creatures of all kinds and will do my best to provide excellent care for them every visit! I would love a part time gig on the weekends or a few evenings through the week to care for your baby. Fur, scales, wings, I got you! If your animals come to me, I have a big yard and privacy fence and do not allow my own pets to interact in an inappropriate way.

“Our pup was so well taken care of! We felt very comfortable knowing she was in good hands while we were out of town. Deb and family looked after our dog as if she was their own. Highly recommend!”



“Debbie and her furry family was wonderful with Max. Lucy, Zoie, and Harley were great companions during his visit. Debbie provided plenty of updates with pictures and a video of Max playing and simply chillin in the house. Debbie truly loves animals.”


About: I’m a stay-at-home mom, now that my kids are getting older I’m looking to make some extra income and I absolutely love animals (of all kinds)!!! Caring for animals isn’t a “job” for me, it’s privilege and I would love to be able to give them the love and attention they need in those times when life gets busy for you. My schedule is pretty open for walks, playtime, baths and just about anything else. I currently have a giant lovable Bernese Mountain Dog and 3 cats ranging from 13 years to 1, but I’ve had many other types of pets/family members in my life too, horses, snakes, chickens etc. and am experienced with them all. Also I want to mention that I’m available for check-ins and boarding in your home too. My schedule is pretty open also including weekends and holidays. Also I am flexible to whatever time works best for you and fits in your schedule. I love taking dogs on hikes and getting them out to be in nature but fun walks around the block work too. . . .

“Gail was everything my boy needed and more! I have no doubt in my mind that he was well taken care of. She kept me up to date throughout our whole trip and even sent pictures. She couldn’t have been a more perfect fit for my boy. I had never used anything like this before but I would choose Gail over and over again. Thank you for loving my boy like he was one of your own.”


“We knew from the moment we met him that our boy would be in capable, loving hands, and we were not wrong. Austin was attentive to Charlie's needs, and remained in daily contact with us throughout his stay. Charlie absolutely loved him (and his mom!), which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Austin is the best!”


About: My husband and I have had dogs and cats our entire lives. We currently have a 5 year old Husky, 2 Cocker Spaniels, ages 2 & 3 and recently rescued a 2 year old English Setter. We love meeting new friends and treat them as our own. We also have 3 cats. We work full time but 3 days we work from home during the week. We are available on Saturday and Sundays and weekday evenings on case by case basis. We have a large fenced in back yard and very friendly dogs to keep your dogs company and can crate your dogs or cats if needed. Can abide by your regular home schedules with food, breaks and walks.
