Pet Sitting Pewee Valley

About: I've spent the last 10 years working with dogs of every size, age, and temperament - from high energy wrestlers to nervous seniors who need patience and gentle hands. I've logged 100+ volunteer hours at Louisville Metro Animal Services, taking shelter dogs on weekly field trips to help them burn energy and just be dogs. That same care goes to your pup.

I’m available Mondays and Tuesdays 9 AM–6 PM, weekdays after 3:15 PM, and weekends. I work pet care into my daily routine and plan my schedule around walks and drop in visits. I prioritize reliability and consistency so pets stay comfortable and on their normal routine. I enjoy being active and flexible, so it’s easy for me to fit pet care in consistently during the week. Your dog's safety and comfort come first, always. I'm RECOVER Pet CPR & First Aid certified, so I'm prepared if something goes wrong.

I've worked with anxious dogs, reactive dogs, seniors with mobility issues, and puppies who've never been walked by a stranger. If your dog needs patience and a slow approach, that's what they'll get.

“Brandon was so great with our girls! He & his wife came over a week before we left & met us & our dogs and we knew immediately that we were making the best choice. We received updates & pictures of our girls twice a day & we could tell they were happy & feeling loved. We were gone for a week & our dogs normally don’t eat much at all when we are gone, but they felt comfortable & safe enough with Brandon & Leah that they did! Our trip was so much more enjoyable knowing that our girls were in the best hands! We give them the highest recommendation!”

“Gabriella was very invested in our cat’s wellbeing while we were gone and went above and beyond. She made sure he had company and got everything he needed. I really appreciated her time investment and transparent, picture-laden updates at every check-in. Definitely recommended to book her!”

Doreen M.

“Wonderful! Julia provided great service and peace of mind. I was put at ease with her immediately and did not worry about my cats during our week away. The daily check-ins were admired by my children (who missed their pets tremendously) and I was impressed by the care displayed during an unexpected weather event. I will book with Julia again!”

About: If your dog thinks every walk is an Olympic event, I'm ready for the challenge. I've been walking dogs in my neighborhood for 9 years and have two dogs of my own, so I know that every dog has a different personality. From energetic pullers to squirrel chasers to dogs who get excited when they see other pups, I've learned how to stay calm, patient, and in control while making sure they have fun. I'm comfortable giving medications, providing overnight care, and adapting to each dog's unique personality and needs. At 21, I have the energy for long walks and active dogs, but also the patience and experience to handle more challenging situations safely and calmly. I treat every dog as if they were my own and work hard to make sure they get the exercise, attention, and care they deserve. I’m currently a college student and also working full-time as an intern at a civil engineering firm, so my schedule is pretty structured during the day. The best times for me to care for pets are in the afternoons and evenings. At my home, I make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and part of the routine. I stick to their usual schedule as much as possible. This includes feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications they need. I also make sure they get plenty of attention and don’t feel stressed while I'm away. In a client’s home, I try to keep things as normal as possible for the pet. I follow all instructions carefully, whether that’s feeding times, walks, meds, or special care. I always make sure they have fresh water, a clean space, and enough exercise and attention. I treat every pet like they’re my own and keep owners updated so they know their pet is doing well!

“Absolutely went above and beyond caring for my fur babies. My family and I will definitely being using Janet whenever we go out a town again and again. Highly recommend!!”

Julie B.

“Caitlin was so great with our babies! She was able to get my super shy cat to eat, which is always difficult to achieve with a new person. She was very communicative and made us feel totally at ease.”

Shelby R.

“Tabitha was great with our 3 cats! She is very dependable, flexible with our chaotic schedule and last minute changes, and gave me confidence that our cats were in good hands while we were away.”

About: Not only have I worked with animals my whole life I also work with dogs specifically with a rescue organization called AdoptMeBluegrass. I help with their animal care weekly and am part of their foster program. My family and my own dogs have welcomed hundreds of others into our home and always provide excellent care. I am a local landlord and typically only go out to work at the pet adoption center for AdoptMeBluegrass. I have no set work hours. I spend my time with the dogs. I have a double fenced property on a dead end street. Dogs love the 3/4 dedicated dog yard for them to play on our 6 acres of land. We have crates and can make your pet feel right at home. I’m a treats giver so let me know if there is something they can’t have or any other dietary restrictions. I can also come to your pet for services while you are away.

“Joanna does a great job in everything we requested for caring for our puppy. He can be a handful, but she is more than capable. She is thorough, responsive, and kind. She does great work and would recommend her to anyone in need of a dog sitter. It was a relief to find someone we could trust with our newest family member and it helps a lot in his growth.”

“Shaine took care of a feral cat that I have been caring for over the last eight years. Feral cats choose people not the other way around. It was obvious from how close this cat came to Shaine that she is good people. I would recommend Shaine for simple or complicated pet sitting needs.”

Gary S.

“Literally the best, Annie took on my drop in last minute and my normally shy cat loved her!🫶🏼 Feel so blessed to have found her wasn’t able to meet her and she was so trustworthy and my stress levels went all the way down. the videos and pics put me at so much ease. will definitely book again and tell my mom about it her. My girl has a new best friend‼︎♡ thank you thank you!!!”

About: I live in a pet-friendly apartment complex with plenty of space outdoors, perfect for the frequent pit stop and play time. Just down the street from me is a beautiful dog park, with lots of space to run, play, and socialize with other dogs! I would be thrilled to provide a comfortable and safe environment for your loved ones, worry free for both you and them, while on vacation. I'm an animal lover and can promise you they'll receive lots of attention, play time, and affection, while you are off enjoying some time to yourself! My current schedule is flexible and allows me time for drop in visits, daily walks and overnight boarding for most of the day and evening. I know every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I tailor my care to each individual animal. In a client’s home, I follow their normal schedule as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, medications, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I’m very attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, energy level, or anything else that seems out of the ordinary, and I’ll always communicate with you if I have any concerns. I’m also happy to send photos and updates so you can feel comfortable knowing how your pet is doing while you’re away. Most importantly, I want your pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their own environment. I treat every animal in my care with the same patience and attention I would want someone to give my own.

“Asher is so reliable! I appreciate her being available to watch my kitty on short notice. Thank you for keeping an eye on my girl while I was away.”

“Natalie did a great job on short notice. We had to leave on a quick trip and she was very prompt. She is very professional and took great care of our dog.”

About: I’ve been dog sitting since I was 16 for neighbors and friends and I love it. I bathe, walk, and play with them and make sure all their needs are taken care of. I am currently a senior at the University of Louisville so I have plenty of time to take care and love your little ones. I love meeting new pups and cats! I have a nice backyard with no houses behind it and a friendly dog and cat who love a little company. Our dog is 2 and our cat is 3!

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover who has owned a beagle, golden retriever, and most recently our beloved German shepherd. I’ve been dog sitting and walking for over 20 years and truly enjoy spending time outdoors with dogs. I treat every dog like my own and focus on keeping them safe, happy, and well exercised. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to easily fit pet care into my daily routine. I enjoy getting outside for walks throughout the day, so caring for dogs fits naturally into my schedule. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their usual routine as closely as possible so their pet feels comfortable and secure. I provide plenty of exercise, attention, and affection, while also making sure they have fresh water, food, and a safe environment. I’m happy to send updates and photos so owners know their pet is doing well.

About: I am a calm, patient, and responsible pet lover who enjoys spending time with both dogs and cats. I currently have a 17-lb dog of my own, so I understand the daily responsibilities of caring for a pet, including feeding, walks, playtime, and keeping a consistent routine. I also previously cared for a medium-sized adult dog for about two months and have long-term experience interacting with cats through my previous workplace. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and needs, and I will always treat your pets with patience, kindness, and care. I am currently waiting for my nursing license transfer, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets. I am available throughout most weekdays and weekends and can accommodate a variety of visit times. I enjoy spending time with animals and can provide reliable care, companionship, feeding, playtime, and check-ins while you are away. I understand that every pet has its own routine and personality. During each visit, I will follow your instructions carefully to ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for in their familiar environment. I can provide feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, walks, playtime, and companionship. As someone with a healthcare background, I pay close attention to details and take responsibility for your pet’s well-being and safety.

“I highly recommend Taylor as a pet sitter/pet walker. Taylor is extremely punctual and has a wonderful relationship with the dogs. Not only does he take them outside for walks, but he also sends pictures to provide updates. Taylor's professionalism and care for the pets make him an excellent choice for anyone in need of pet sitting or walking services.”

About: I’ve worked with dogs for over 20 years, with much of that time spent walking and handling shelter dogs—especially those that are anxious or unsure. That experience taught me how important calm, structure, and consistency are in helping dogs feel more confident. I run Trail & Heel, a dog training and adventure-based care service in Louisville. I focus on practical, real-world training—whether that’s working with puppies, improving leash manners, or helping nervous dogs build confidence. Every walk and interaction is handled with intention. For me, care and training go hand in hand, with the goal of helping dogs become calmer, more reliable, and easier to live with. Caring for dogs is already part of my everyday life, so it fits naturally into my routine. I plan my schedule around the dogs I’m working with so I’m not rushing between visits. That means each dog gets calm, consistent attention and a much better experience overall. Care is always tailored to the dog and the service, but the approach stays consistent: calm, structured, and intentional. In a client’s home, I stick closely to their routine—feeding, potty breaks, exercise, and any specific instructions—while also reinforcing good habits like leash manners, calm greetings, and settling. In my home, I keep the environment structured and low-stress. Dogs get supervised time, appropriate exercise (including trail walks when it’s a good fit), and clear boundaries so they can relax and succeed. I only take on a small number of dogs at a time to make sure each one gets the attention they need.
