About: I have special needs pets at home that require require extra skills as well as patience. I have taken care of dogs, cats, fish, rabbits, and hamsters. I am also a certified veterinary technician, I cannot prescribe medicine or diagnose any conditions in your pet but I have an abundance of skills to make sure your pet is properly cared for in my presence. I also work during the day so care will be before work, during my lunch, and when I get off of work. I am willing to take care of any dog unless they are for some reason aggressive towards me, but I am still willing to meet them and try to become their friend. I am also willing to care for any feline. I am an animal lover and always have been and I will treat your furry kiddos as I would want all of mine treated ❤

Highest recommendation! Penny represents the utmost in professional care for your pets. We had the great fortune of using her in-home pet sitting while away on vacation. From the get-go, Penny set herself apart with highly responsive communication and respectful punctuality. She was immediately at ease with our pets, and provided numerous daily update photos so we knew everything was going well while we were away. Going further, she patiently provided the extra care our senior dog needs in terms of daily medication and food preparation. Penny is everything a great pet sitter should be!

About: Hi! I’m a dedicated animal lover offering dog walking services for your furry family members. I’m a mom of four, with two dogs of my own—a German Shepherd and a Pomeranian—and two cats, so I’m very comfortable caring for animals of all sizes and personalities. We recently moved from California. I spent my time hiking twice a week with my dogs, alongside my cousin and her Doberman and cattle dog. Staying active and being outdoors is a big part of my life, and I love bringing dogs along! I treat my pets like family so I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for them. Whether your dog needs a quick walk, exercise, or just some companionship during the day, I’m here to help. My husband and I are currently in the process of buying a home, and I’m looking to earn a little extra income while doing something I love. If you’re looking for someone dependable, experienced, and truly passionate about animals, I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets! I am currently a stay at home mom. I will be available during the summer and our youngest will be starting kindergarten so my schedule is open to you and your pets needs for long term! I can come to your home, help administer medications, play with your pets and take them for walks. Available for occasional overnight stays if needed.

10/10 will recommend Anamaria any day of the week!! She is amazing. Our Stella was so happy and had the best time with her. Happy and healthy were our main priorities and she exceeded them with her care. Constant updates, great communication, and flexible! She also took care of our crested gecko and his needs. From the first meet and greet when Ana asked detailed and important questions, we knew she’d be a great fit and caring sitter. We are happy to know we have a reliable and go-to person for all future pet needs!

About: Growing up surrounded by animals has shaped who I am as a caregiver. I had a cat and a bunny as a kid, and we always had at least two dogs at a time. Over the past year, my family has had six dogs, and I currently care for my own cat and golden retriever while also helping with my parents’ five other dogs. This constant hands-on experience with animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities truly sets me apart from other sitters. I understand animal behavior, routines, and comfort needs on a deeper level because it’s been my everyday life—not just an occasional responsibility. My care is calm, consistent, and patient, and I always treat pets with the same love and attention I give my own. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do; it’s something I genuinely value, and it would be a dream to care for someone else’s pets as if they were part of my family. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine because my schedule is already flexible and structured around mornings. I work part-time at Starbucks on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays, mostly in the early hours, with only one additional Friday afternoon shift. I’m also a student, but I currently take just two classes, and my semester is almost over. Starting next semester, all my classes will be fully online, giving me even more availability throughout the day. This flexibility allows me to devote consistent time and attention to pets, making sure their walks, feeding times, and check-ins are never rushed. With so much open time in my schedule, I’m able to provide reliable, calm, and attentive care whenever it’s needed. I care for pets with the same calm, attentive routine whether they’re in my home or in a client’s home. In my own space, I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable by providing a clean environment, consistent feeding schedules, plenty of playtime, and lots of affection. I’m used to managing multiple animals at once, so keeping up with routines, energy levels, and comfort needs comes naturally to me. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and committed to maintaining the routines their pets are already used to—whether that means specific feeding instructions, preferred walk routes, or favorite playtime habits. I focus on creating a smooth, stress-free experience for both pets and owners by keeping things consistent, reliable, and tailored to each animal’s needs.

About: When it comes to pet sitting, my history primarily involves medically fragile animals. Specifically, getting used to taking car of a dog with diabetes and a cat on medication for its allergies. I enjoy animals quite a bit and look forward for a chance to cuddle and play with them. I am currently working part time, and mostly remote, so I will have time to keep an eye on your pets and make sure they get ample attention. It also leaves my schedule rather flexible. I have worked as an EMT, Emergency 911 Operator, and formerly worked IT in a prison. I have been very thoroughly background checked on multiple state and federal levels. You'll find me open, honest, and communicative at every step, especially regarding care and concern for pets and places in my care.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, usually multiple at a time, all shapes and sizes. Your pup will receive top-tier, attentive care with your instructions followed to the letter. Beyond that, expect plenty of walks, play sessions, cuddles, and adventures. I genuinely love dogs and treat every pet like my own. As a student, I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate almost any timing mornings, evenings, weekends, you name it. I work around your needs and will always make your pet my top priority. I have a friendly dog at home who loves meeting new friends! When watching pets in your home, you can expect to come back to everything exactly as you left it, if not a little cleaner. I treat every home and pet with the utmost respect and care.

About: I have experience with both young and older pets. With puppies and kittens, I stay consistent with routines and can help reinforce basic training like potty habits, feeding schedules, and positive behavior. For senior pets, I’m gentle and attentive to their needs, whether that means giving medication, moving at a slower pace, or just providing extra comfort and companionship. I also make sure pet owners feel at ease by keeping communication open—I can send updates, photos, and check-ins so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to create a stress-free experience for both you and your pet. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for. I make time for walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day, and I’m consistent with routines so pets feel comfortable and secure. Throughout the week, I stay flexible to meet each pet’s specific needs, whether that’s extra visits, longer walks, or special care. I’m reliable and make sure every pet gets the attention and care they deserve. In my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets are comfortable, safe, and kept on their normal routine. I follow all feeding instructions, give fresh water, regular potty breaks, and plenty of exercise and attention. I also provide playtime, affection, and calm companionship so they feel at ease while you’re away. I keep the space clean and always respect the client’s home just like it’s my own.

About: I’ve taken care of pets my entire life for as long as I can remember. Anything from horses to rabbits. I also have 5 years of veterinary assistant/tech experience at a small animal veterinary clinic. I’m experienced and comfortable giving pets their medications, injections, nail trims, etc. I’m currently just a homemaker so I have a lot of availability, I would love to spend my free time with animals as they are my passion. Whether I am coming by a couple times a day to take care of your pets or house sitting I am a very by-the-book type of person. I will follow your instruction and guidelines in an organized and detailed manner. My experience in a vet clinic also allows me to feel comfortable with any pet care situation.

About: I have taken care of my parents dogs and cats. My parents used to run a rescue so I have taken care of 11 dogs and 2 cats at the same time of all sizes and ages. This means from newborns to seniors. I am experienced in administering medication via pill or mouth syringe. I am also experienced in walking and taking care of reactive dogs. I work at TopGolf from 10-6. I am available weekends Friday-Sunday all day. I do have a dog of my own so I would have to leave once or twice a day to make sure he is fed and walked. I would not take care of pets in my own due to my dog. I would be able to come to your home and take care of your babies needs. I would love to play with them, make sure they are properly taken care of. When I am around they will know they’re loved. If allowed I’d take them to the dog bakery too if get them pup cups.

Meriwether, Louisville, KY, 40217

About: I’ve always been known to have a dog by my side. They were my family and they came first. I cared for them through every stage of life - some adopted as puppies and others rescued in old age. I've trained puppies and administered medications. After loving and losing many dogs, I made a thoughtful decision not to adopt again. Now I devote my time, experience, and full-hearted attention to the daily care of other people’s dogs as I've always done for my own. My goal is to host one dog a day, maybe 2...(if the first parents agree and they enjoy each others' company). I am only available to house-sit in special circumstances and if/when I have no daily doggies who require my attention. Advanced notice is required. I operate as a fully insured limited liability company and provide care in a calm, secure, and attentive home environment. I intentionally limit the number of pets I care for at one time so each animal receives my full focus, patience, and respect. My yard is fenced and I have no pets or children living here — just quiet space for your dog. I offer a "day camp," not a kennel. Dogs enjoy a fenced front porch and back yard with full furniture privileges. Dog TV and "Calming Music for Dogs" via Alexa are available throughout the stay.

I have a very flexible full time job that allows me to come and go as needed. I always check my schedule to make sure I can. I like to meet the family and pets before I start so that they know who I am and am not a stranger to them. I currently have three family’s that rely on me when they go out of town.
