Dog Walkers in Rockcastle, KY

About: My approach to pet care is rooted in patience, genuine love, and treating every dog as a valued member of the family. With a lifetime of experience caring for dogs and puppies, I deeply understand that pets require more than just basic needs. They thrive on love, reliable structure, and a comfortable place to stay while you are away. My goal is simple: to give pet parents complete peace of mind during vacations or work trips, knowing their animal is in safe and genuinely loving hands. I am excited to shower your beloved companion with care and make a new connection. I am a stay at home mom so I would be able to adjust to almost any schedule. I would be able to give one on one care to your special pup! I would love your dog to be able to make a comfortable living space. We have a small fenced in yard to play and potty breaks, but I am very comfortable with leash walking for bathroom breaks and exercise. We are able to use a crate if needed for night time, I also don’t mind a dog sleeping on our couch for added comfort if that’s what the dog is comfortable with. I truly want it to be a specialized and adjustable experience to whatever the fur baby needs.

About: I have taken care of dogs of all breeds, from Great Danes and Mastiffs, to chihuahuas and Teacup poodles. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and medical needs. Whether your dog is a playful puppy, a nervous rescue, or a senior with special care requirements, I know how to meet them where they are—with patience, gentleness, and respect. I’m confident handling medications, monitoring health changes, and responding calmly to emergencies. And yes, I’m fluent in belly rubs, leash manners, and the art of a good treat toss. My training as a veterinary technician adds another layer of confidence and skill. I’m experienced in administering medications, monitoring subtle health changes, and responding calmly to emergencies. Whether your dog needs special care or just a gentle presence while you're away, I offer both professional know-how and genuine affection. Im currently working part time from home, so I will have PLENTY of time to check in on your babies. I’m attuned to their moods, their health, and their quirks—whether it’s a sudden burst of zoomies or a subtle shift in appetite. Throughout the week, I build in time for deep-cleaning, play therapy, and medication routines when needed. I approach each task with intention and honor, recognizing how much trust goes into watching your home and pets. Clean water bowls, fresh bedding, and a tidy environment aren’t just details—they’re part of how I show love. I take pride in creating a space where dogs feel safe, soothed, and seen.

About: I’ve always been an advocate for animals. Their innocence, loyalty, and dedication to humans is unwavering so I try to give them love in return. I just left my 9-5 to per-sue what makes me happy and still make money. Caring for animals will give me the ability to spend more time with mine also. I have 3 dogs in my home so I would care for your pet in your home. Plus I feel that pets are more comfortable in their own homes. I have a live in dog sitter so my pets always have someone with them giving me the time to help other people with their pets.

About: I've been around pets my whole life they are the best thing ever created. I've had a 3 dogs and about probably 13 cats in total growing up. Animals are my passion. I've always taken care of my fur babies before myself. When it comes to my fur babies - they have been a part of my life for nearly a decade. Whether its my own, families, or friends - I'm always striving to offer my attention and care to making sure our four legged friends are not only taken care of but shown love. I'm blessed that I routinely get to balance my week by reducing the burden on pet parents seeing more of my furry friends! I live in a house with a fenced in back yard and a cat that is a sweetheart. I treat other people's pet like my own.

About: I've taken care of cats, dogs and ferrets for many years! I always put my pets first before anything else. I mostly enjoy spending time outdoor and being active with dogs, making sure they get plenty of exercise. When I'm with my cats my favorite thing to do with them is have them chase the red laser! My ferrets enjoy running through tubes and playing in their own ball pit. I am currently looking for a full-time job, but for the meantime my schedule is completely free! When I do get a job I will still focus on taking care of your furry babies. Although I am unable to keep your pets at my place, I am more than happy to come to your house at pet sit! I will feed them when needed, make sure to give them all kinds of love and attention the whole time I'm there, prescribe medicine when needed (Although, the only type of medication I have prescribed to my furbabies has been flea medicine, so if your pet needs different medication please teach me!).

About: I've taken care of all kinds of animals, grew up on a farm, and currently live on one. I currently work with horses. I quit nursing to do something I love and work with animals. If I cannot give your animal the care I would expect mine to get for some reason, I won't take the job. I currently work with horses every day. I live on a farm where we have goats 🐐, horses 🐎, chickens 🐔, a pig 🐖, cats 🐈, dogs 🐕, a rabbit 🐇, and a guinea pig so I'm no stranger to animals. I care for my clients pets as if they are my own. If my scheduling conflicts with their care, I will simply turn the job down because it's just not fair to them. I'm not really about leaving them locked up. I enjoy playing with them, walking them, and getting to know their personalities.

“Ayla was a wonderful sitter and walker! She even brought an extra food bowl for my pup when I told her I only had his water bowl! She was attentive, on time and lovely to work with! Thank you Ayla??”

About: Attention to your animals needs, all animals are the most precious especially seniors. I’m comfortable with giving medication, highly communicative and flexible. I know basic grooming skills, most comfortable with any breed. I know how to deal with animals with separation anxiety or anxiety issues. I’m currently a stay at home dog mom & wife. I have plenty of time to care for your fur babies while you are away. I’m available anytime, just have to work around my husbands schedule! But that shouldn’t be an issue. I also have a background working in animal care, I use to work as a kennel technician and also worked under a veterinarian. Before we even book a sitting I love to meet with my clients and fur friends to see if we’re a perfect match. I always like to know what the dog/cat is like so I can build trust more easily

“Excellent pet care! I am recovering from surgery and she was able to walk them for 1/2 hour, something that they needed and I needed. We chatted about personal stuff and told her I need her again. She is good. She is getting a better position at work which made me very satisfied.”

About: I've had animals in my life forever, but I currently have three cats of my own, and I dogsit often for my family. Hope to get a dog of my own in the near future. I currently don't have a job so I am available any day and any time. Occasionally in middle Tennessee for the weekends but can definitely put pet-sitting needs first. I am happy to take your pup for a walk, give treats, give baths, prep any kind of special foods they might eat, and just generally spend quality time. I am also happy to spend time with cats, play with toys, brush and groom them, and anything else you might require.

“Kayla is wonderful with our Dottie girl! Dottie is so excited to see her. She is a new pup and Kayla is so patient, kind and playful with her! Kayla is incredibly communicative, she is always timely and gives us such peace of mind knowing our Dottie is in great hands! We feel so fortunate to get to work with Kayla!”

About: I have had animals my entire life— I come from a family who loved having animals; dogs, birds, cats, you name it. I have had my own pets for 5 years since I’ve had my own house(s) & my favorite compliment from anyone is when they comment on how well-behaved & friendly my pets are. I hike a lot & have taken my friends’ dogs on many walks. I’m the go-to person my friends & family ask to watch their pets, check on them, feed or walk them, etc. I’m extremely reliable & responsible— I value punctuality & kindness in all I do. I have a lot of free time and flexibility with my schedule as I work from home. I have plenty of time off on the weekends, as well. I always make time for animals and nature— that’s what brings me peace and balances out the work-week. I live in a lovely, largely grassed apartment complex with big stretches of yard for pets to play in and do their business. The area I live in in Newark is safe and there’s plenty of sidewalks and lovely trails near by for walking. My home is pet-friendly, both dogs and cats are welcome, they won’t be shunned from the furniture and they will always have a lot of attention as I work from home. I do have a cat as well, but she is very relaxed and friendly with all animals and people alike. My friends bring over their puppies and cats to play with Twig (my cat) all the time! I have lots of space for crates if needed, too— along with a litter box if I ever board another cat/kitten!

I pride myself in being organized, devoted, and dedicated to exceptional pet care for your loved ones. With a wide-open schedule, I'm available every day for walks, playtime, and boarding. Weekdays or weekends, I'm here to ensure your pet's happiness and well-being. In a loving home setting, I prioritize walks and dog park visits for joy, always prioritizing safety. Compassion and trust define my care, ensuring a secure and contented experience for your furry friend.

About: I enjoy spending time with animals big and small, some pets might need time to get to know you. I understand and pay attention to pet behavior I am patient, respectful, trustworthy, I have no problem cleaning up after pets. I also offer home cleaning and house keeping services if needed. I have no other commitments right now at the moment i am open for scheduling and looking forward to getting to know you and your pet. I would be doing pet care in the clients home animals feel more comfortable in their own homes and I am not able to bring them to mine for the time being. I will be asking clients what their expectations will be during our introduction to make sure I can provide the best service and quality care for their pet.

“I stayed with my skittish cattle dog at the Alfond Inn for 8 days and Kanisha walked Earl every morning and after only two am walks, Earl was comfortable allowing her into the room while I was away for an afternoon walk. Kanisha was very chill with Earl and always brought her back well exercised and happy. And unlike some walkers, she always spent the entire half hour with my pup rain or shine! I will definitely hire her again.”
