About: I am the proud grandchild of a certified crazy pet lady. My grandmother had five cats and two dogs for most of my childhood, so I am well-versed in the patience and love it takes to care for your pets. I work part-time and am fortunate to make my own schedule a lot of the time, giving me plenty of time for pet care! I also find myself out and about in the city all the time, so I’d love the opportunity to care for your pets while exploring new neighborhoods. I know that your space is your own (and your pet’s, of course) and I will be sure to treat it with the care and respect that I would my own.

About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was ten years old! Between looking after my own dog and my family's, I have the experience and love to make sure your furry friend gets the attention they deserve! I'm a middle school teacher in the Louisville area, so weekends are the best for house sitting and longer watching periods! During the weekday afternoons, I would love to help check in, play with your pup, or give them a nice long walk! Communication is the most important thing. I will always follow the wishes of the owner to make sure your pets are cared for in the most consistent way possible. Your boundaries are mine, and I always act in the best interest of you and your pets!
About: I've been petsitting ever since I was younger and grew up around dogs my whole life. I don't have any special skills but offer a lot of love as a current dental student who can't have their own pet currently. I am currently a student with a summer schedule that is more relaxed. Currently in the summer, most afternoons after 12 I will be free. In the morning I will have classes from 9-11 am but these are flexible and am free most afternoons. I am very flexible with care, each family and home has their own requirements about how their pet is cared for. I love taking dogs on walks, playing with them in the backyard, or even just cuddling with your pet on the couch together while I work on some homework!

About: I have had two dogs in my life and trained them both when they were puppies! I have also taken care of one post-surgery, and have experience with old/injured dogs.

About: I’ve been caring for animals my whole life—personally, professionally, and even globally. From pet sitting cats and dogs around the world to working as a zookeeper caring for sea lions, otters, penguins, and alligators, my experience is as diverse as it is deep. I’ve trained my own dog, volunteered in animal shelters, and supported special needs pets. I specialize in working with high-energy dogs, especially medium to large breeds like pit bulls, Dobermans, and German Shepherds. My care style is loving yet structured: I’ll get on the floor and play just as easily as I’ll redirect behaviors like jumping. I aim to build trust, reinforce positive habits, and create a safe, playful environment. As a contract worker, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to play with your pups this summer! I’m available on weekdays and some weekends, and can adapt to your pet’s routine for walks, meals, or playtime. When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. I follow your instructions closely and keep pets on their normal schedule to reduce stress. I’m respectful of your space and make sure everything stays clean, calm, and secure. I’m also attentive to behavior and body language, so I can adjust my approach as needed—whether that’s extra play, gentle encouragement, or giving them space.

She is truly amazing!”
