Pet Sitting Salvisa

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and genuinely love caring for them like family. What sets me apart is my attention to detail, patience, and ability to quickly build trust with pets of all personalities. I have experience walking energetic dogs, caring for senior pets with medication needs, and creating a calm environment for anxious animals. Whether it's a puppy who needs structure and training or an older dog who needs gentle care, I adapt my approach to meet each pet’s unique needs. You can count on me to provide consistent, loving, and dependable care every time. I’m currently doing pet care part time while I have a job as an insurance agent, but I use lunch breaks to let dogs out so they aren’t alone longer than 4 hours. When I am with your pet, I give your pets my full attention and provide consistent, reliable care throughout the week when I’m not at work and full time on the weekends! Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets—whether in my home or yours. I always take time to understand each pet’s routine, needs, and personality so I can create a calm, secure environment where they feel comfortable and cared for. In your home, I respect your space and follow your instructions closely, keeping things clean and organized. I make sure pets stay on their usual schedule and provide lots of attention, playtime, and supervision. I also keep you updated with regular messages and photos so you can feel confident and at ease while you're away.

About: I've always had cats and dogs. I can't imagine a life without them! Currently, I have two dogs and two cats, from 5 years old to 13. They are all my babies. I've volunteered at several rescues over the years, both dogs and cats of all ages. I am not working a full-time job at this time, so I have lots of time for your kids. Whether they require play, or cuddles, or just need basic attention, they'll get whatever makes them happy I keep my kids in a routine so as not to cause them any stress. This would carry over to the client's home as well.

About: I have taken care of a large poodle for a few weeks multiple times a year. I had to feed once a day and let outside. In addition, I have taken care of 3 dogs feeding them once a day. I have taken care of a cat and dog, cleaning the litter boxes and letting the dog out. Lastly, I have house sat/dog sat for an older dog that got fed twice a day. I have experience in house sitting for long periods while animals are present. On the other hand, I have a lot of experience farm and house sitting. This can sometimes include taking care of horses in addition to farm dogs and cats or just house sitting with an animal present. Since I am a college student, I have days that are busier than others, but I am always open to different schedules. My times won’t be the exact time everyday, but I can make it out to the animal everyday. I currently am a senior at Asbury University studying equine studies. I have always had a passion for animals and I would love to get more time helping others with their pets. I think animals are a beautiful creation and they deserve our love and care.

About: I've helped take care of dogs for friends and family since I graduated from college in 2016. I'm a thoroughbred jockey currently off riding due to injury, and apprenticing to become a dog trainer. I have multiple friends that train dogs professionally, my personal dog sees multiple trainers regularly, and I learn new things every day. From obedience to behavior to nutrition, I value all of the practical use, knowledge, and love I can apply to any dog I get the opportunity to work with! I'm a thoroughbred jockey currently off riding due to injury. I have a lot of free time now, and I've started to fill it by gaining as much knowledge and practice in professional pet and sport training for dogs and cats. Rover is a way I may be able to help out my community by applying everything I'm learning for pets and people that need someone that cares about their animals the way I've cared about animals my whole life. At home, I have two lovely house cats and one rambunctious puppy. My cats like their space and will ask for love when they want it. My puppy needs structure in his day to balance activity, learning, enrichment, and rest. I am more than comfortable providing the kind of care any client wants for their furry family members. Whether that's daily enrichment, getting out in the world, or learning an off switch at home. I'm familiar with excited jumping on guests and earning trust from nervous or shy animals. I have Ruffland crash tested kennels in my car and can provide enrichment and new adventures if requested! If you don't have a fenced area around your home, and you are comfortable with it, I do have 20ft long lines I can use so the dogs get a chance to be outside to play and do their business while also ensuring their safety. I've always been an animal lover, and now that I have free time in my life, I want to provide knowledge and time for other animals and their humans that need a helping hand.

About: I volunteer at both a dog and a cat shelter! In addition, I have pet sat for friends and family since I was young. I have animals of my own and understand the importance of our pets comfort and health. I’m currently working part-time and I’m out for summer break so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets! I am available throughout the week besides Friday and Saturday from 3-10pm. I give attentive, personalized care in my clients' homes to help pets stay comfortable in their familiar environment! I ensure to follow each pet's routine, including feeding schedules, water, walks, playtime, exercise, medication administration (if needed), and lots of affection. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages for peace of mind if desired. My focus is on providing reliable, one on one care fit for each pet's needs.

About: I have several years of experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities. I’ve helped my friend with everything from daily walks to overnight stays, and I always make sure each dog feels safe, happy, and understood. I’m patient with shy dogs, gentle with seniors, and playful with energetic pups. I follow feeding schedules closely, keep routines consistent, and make sure every dog gets plenty of exercise, bathroom breaks, and attention. Whether it’s a calm walk, fetch in the yard, or quiet cuddle time, I adjust to whatever your dog needs. I also provide frequent photo and video updates so you can feel connected while you’re away. Your dog will be cared for with love, respect, and the same attention I would give my own. I’m currently a graduate student with a very flexible schedule. I spend most of my time at home, so I’m able to check in on pets frequently and keep their routine consistent. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and house sitting throughout the week, including evenings and weekends. Your pet will get plenty of attention, playtime, and care every day. I take safety very seriously and always follow your instructions exactly—whether it’s feeding, litter care, medication, or keeping doors secured. I’m calm, patient, and respectful of each pet’s space, especially shy or anxious animals. In your home, I make sure everything stays clean and comfortable, and I send frequent photo updates so you always know how your pet is doing. I treat every pet with the same care and kindness I give my own.

About: I've had at least four dogs as long as I can remember. As a child, they were my first companions and my second caretakers. Even as I grew into an adult, they were always there to comfort me and to brighten the darkest of days. Dogs hold a very special place in my heart and I am eager to give back what they so willingly give; love, acceptance, understanding, comfort, and joy. In the last two years, I have gone from four dogs to one, due to Cancer and Congestive Heart Failure, and I must admit that their absence has affected me deeply. I miss them so so so much!! I'm one of those people that celebrated their dog's birthdays and bought them copious presents for Christmas. While my friends were pulling out their family pics, I was always pulling out my dog pics. I share this same sentiment towards birds, rabbits, and cats; all of which I had growing up. Being surrounded by animals as a child was a great experience. It even prompted me to volunteer at the ASPCA for almost a year. As I hope you can tell, I will not only provide what your pet (s) needs to survive, but I will also provide him/her with special attention and love. I look forward to meeting with both you and your pet! Until then, take care! I will be able to fulfill any house/pet sitting duties without any issues, as I am able to balance my obligations responsibly and with respect to myself and those that hire me. While pet/house sitting, I will abide the rules given to me. This could include when they play, where they sleep, any medications needed, when to eat, etc.

“I can always count on Glenn and Terrill to take great care of my dog. It’s such a comfort knowing they will be here when I can’t be! I always get prompt responses and photos.”

About: I’m a recent animal science graduate from UK, and have fostered and sat multiple dogs through 4Paws for Ability—a program that trains service dogs! I also spend time volunteering at the Lexington Humane Society, and grew up with several dogs of my own. I currently work at a vet clinic, and am hoping to eventually attend vet school myself. I am currently working part time, but animals are my passion. While my availability may vary a bit, I’m always open to try and work it out! I have tons of toys in many varieties—interactive, stuffed, super sturdy bones, and more! Whether your pet likes to hang out on the couch or play fetch for hours, I can be the sitter for them.

About: Having grown up and worked on a farm until moving to Louisville four years ago, I have extensive experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, horses, chickens, and other fowl. Along with providing routine daily care, I am experienced in handling basic needs across various levels of veterinary emergencies. While I am currently enjoying my time in grad school, I truly miss being around animals every day and would love the opportunity to care for yours! I'm a full-time grad student, my schedule allows me time in the morning, in the evenings and throughout the weekend to look after your pet. I can be flexible and am open to talking and finding a time that can work for both of us! While I have much experience with animals, I do recognize that everyone has different needs. I'm looking forward to meeting each animal and learning about their individual personalities as well as their needs. I promise to communicate as openly as possible to bring as much peace of mind as I can while you are away from your pet and your home. I understand that there is a level of trust that comes with having someone new in your home, so I am open to answering any questions you may have so that this can be a smooth and comfortable process for both of us.
