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!
“Flexible and easy to work with. Came in last minute when I forgot to book.”
About: I have always loved animals and been around them most of my life. I have taken a basic training course for dogs and previously owned them and currently own cats. I am well versed in giving oral medication to both dogs and cats. I love talking puppies of any age for a walk, long or short and know how to work on leash training. I've worked with senior dogs and know how to give meds. I would love to look after your sweet pet(s) when you are unable to. I work from home so I am able to work around your schedule to take care of your loved ones. I can do short distance travel as needed. I will follow all the clients directions on how they would like their pet cared for in their home. I am available for check-ins for any sort of animal you may have and dog walks. I love to spend time cuddling or giving scratches, playing fetch or chase, or just spending time so your fur baby isn't lonely.
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!
“I was so nervous to have someone unfamiliar walk my Lilly girl but, Jessica was great and reassured me that she was in good hands! I'm also very thankful for the pictures and update to ease my mind. Will certainly be booking again :)”
“Chakra’s first week with Amber has been awesome. It’s been really great for him to have a midday pickup and walk. I can truly see a difference in his temperament.”
About: I love pets but don’t currently have one of my own, so Rover is the perfect side hustle for me! For the energetic dogs - I love walking as much as your pup does and I’m always up for a good long trek or play session! For the couch potatoes, I’m also happy to chill at home. I can’t wait to meet you and your pet! I work from home two days per week and usually take my lunch break at home when I’m in the office, so I have plenty of time to devote to pet care! I enjoy long walks or hikes on the weekends, so I’m happy to welcome higher-energy pets as well. I have a smaller fenced-in yard that’s perfect for potty breaks for larger dogs and plenty of room for zoomies for the smaller pups! I’m located very close to a large park that’s perfect for walks, and my neighborhood is very walkable. I love exploring the local neighborhoods, parks, and state parks. I have a separate guest/office space so can easily accommodate crates. I’m familiar with puppy-proofing and keep any dangerous materials either locked away or well out of reach.
“Jada walked our sweet Foxie for a week & found Jada to be incredibly reliable, friendly & cordial! If you’re looking for somebody that’s personable and dependable, Jada is your girl! 10/10 would recommend!”

About: I have had pets the majority of my life, coming from a family who always looked after strays and adopted rescue animals. the first dog which actually belonged to me was a rescue named Tophie that I got when i was around 11 years old. later i had a rescue Beagle named Simon. who developed arthritis in his hind leg in his later years, so I have experience with older pets with physical limitations. I then Had a cat named Annie. who loved to cuddle, which gave me experience with highly affectionate, attention demanding pets, I currently have an older cat named Sugar, who has a very sensitive stomach. giving me experience with pets with special dietary needs. I also have experience with a close friends pit-red heeler mix named Rosie, who has a lot of energy and loves to play. Giving me experience with larger and more playful dogs. I also cared for Rosie through her pregnancy. So I have limited experience with pregnant dogs, given that my cat has special dietary needs, I need to feed her multiple times a day. depending on how she's feeling, sometimes food mixtures need to be adjusted or she needs more or less. Though my father shares this responsibility, she is his cat too. I will put your Four-legged family member first. make sure that they are safe and happy, and follow all instruction without fail. I understand how much your pets mean to you.

16. Daniel L.
“Daniel loves animals especially dogs, and cats. He is very good working with them. Daniel and I live together in my home and I see how he snuggles up with our cat, plays with her, feeds her, and cares for her. We recently lost our dog that we had had for over 10 years Daniel stayed with him while he was eased out of his pain and gently feel asleep while his owner and his boy spoke to him quiet words of assurance. It’s not easy seeing your pet pass away, but Daniel handled it with calmness, and reserved the sadness for afterwards. Also a couple months ago Daniels friend asked him to keep her dog Rosy that was soon to whelp. Daniel patiently worked with Rosy for several days then stayed up all night with Rosy as she paced, vomited, and pawed at her nesting area, as it was necessary he did what needed to be done. To his credit he remains calm in these type situations. We have had many pets over the years including Birds, Gerbils, Cat, and Dog, while live at home with his mother and sisters you can add in horse, and large bread dogs. – Daniel was able to feed and care for all of these successfully (however, his sister did most of the horse work). I would not hesitate to recommend Daniel for feeding, watching, caring for, and / or walking anyone's precious dog(s), cat or other pets.”
17. Reeanna B.
“Reeanna has 2 dogs & a cat. She loves animals. She would love to be a veterinarian someday. One of her dogs she found walking down the road so she took him in & has gave him a happy home. Reeanna will love your pet & take very good care of them. She will do whatever you want her to do for your pet. She will walk then & love them like her own & you will not have to worry about them!”
